The old man roared angrily, charging straight at Long Chen. His aura surged, and the terrifying Human Emperor's aura surged wildly.
"He's going to self-destruct!"
Long Ziwei shouted in terror, but the Dragonblood warriors at the front all stared coldly at him, showing no intention of defending or attacking.
However, to everyone's surprise, the old man rushed up to Long Chen like a deflated ball, actually suppressing his own aura.
Long Chen looked coldly at the old man and said, "Dare to act, but not dared to take responsibility. When you ambushed my Lingxiao Academy and used the power of the Human Emperor to crush our academy's strongest beings, you should have considered this outcome."
If you have courage, you should die on the battlefield; if you have strategy, you should know my intention in letting you return.
If you were loyal to the sect, you wouldn't have set fire to the gate; if you were righteous, you wouldn't have hidden and let that old man come out to die.
You are a man of no courage or strategy, disloyalty and righteousness. I don't believe you have the courage to self-destruct. You don't have the courage to kill yourself; you are just putting on a show to have us kill you. The
old man gritted his teeth, trembling all over. His eyes were filled with terror; Long Chen had seen through all his weaknesses.
"If you cherish life so much, why trample on others' lives so much?" Guo Ran reached out his large hand, about to strike, but Long Chen stopped him.
"Ziwei, you come and see him off on his way!" Long Chen said.
Although he was a half-step Human Emperor, Long Chen felt it was inappropriate for the Dragon Blood Legion to kill someone like him, so he directly called out Long Ziwei.
Long Ziwei was quick-witted. Although he was fearless too, being asked to kill a half-step Human Emperor-level powerhouse still made him feel a bit intimidated.
But Long Chen had already spoken. Gritting his teeth, he stepped forward, forcibly suppressing his fear, and thrust his sword toward the old man's forehead.
"Pfft"
The old man didn't dare move, letting Long Ziwei kill him with a single sword strike. The half-step Human Emperor's corpse lay flat on the ground.
"We'll fight you to the death!"
The sect master and deputy sect leader were killed one after another. Someone inside the Xiaoyao Sect roared in anger and drew their weapons, but despite their weapons, no one dared to step forward.
Long Chen didn't even glance at them, but instead looked at Long Ziwei and the others, whose faces showed signs of pity. Long Chen knew exactly what they were thinking.
Long Chen said calmly, "Today I'll teach you a lesson. Remember, never be merciful to your enemies, because when their blade pierces your heart, your mercy won't provide the slightest protection."
Showing mercy to the enemy is like forgetting hatred; forgetting hatred is tantamount to betrayal. Think about it: if the barrier had broken back then, would our fate have been better than those people? Long
Ziwei killed that half-step Human Emperor, but he felt a bit sad. After all, he was a high-ranking and powerful half-step Human Emperor, and to be executed like that easily stirred sympathy in the twilight of a hero.
But Long Chen's words thundered in their minds. They looked at the disciples inside the Xiaoyao Sect who were glaring at them with weapons. If the barrier was broken, would they still have a chance to glare at the enemy?
"Kill them all, wipe them out completely."
Long Ziwei's sympathy for them vanished in an instant. Looking at the group of armed men, murderous intent surged in his eyes.
"They weren't the ones at fault. Every grievance has its cause, and every debt has its owner. When they're seeking revenge, it's not too late to kill them!" Long Chen said calmly, then with a wave of his hand, Xia Chen activated the formation disk, and everyone instantly disappeared.
After Long Chen and the others left, the Xiaoyao Sect's experts suddenly fell into chaos, and their furious roars echoed throughout the entire sect.
"Puff puff puff... The
experts of the Xiaoyao Sect suddenly began killing each other, each striking ruthlessly, as if they were witnessing the mortal enemy who killed their father. If Long Chen and the others saw this scene, they would surely be dumbfounded.
Originally, the Xiaoyao Sect was divided into several major factions, but now that the strongest had died, with no leader left, they immediately began fighting for the sect's resources, especially in front of the treasury, where rivers of blood almost instantly flowed.
"Buzz"
Long Chen had no idea what was happening inside the Xiaoyao Sect. Even if he did, he would just sneer and dismiss it. This is human nature. With the void trembling, they had already arrived on an island.
This was the territory of the Sea Demon Clan. When Long Chen and the others arrived, the entire island instantly erupted, countless terrifying auras surging forth. Before Long Chen could speak, countless water columns shot up from the sea, surrounding them. Clearly, these sea demons were already prepared for battle.
"No need to shout, let's start the killing!" Seeing this situation, Long Chen skipped the previous steps.
"Kill!"
Upon receiving Long Chen's order, the Dragon Blood warriors charged out first, followed by disciples of the Galaxy Sect and mercenary warriors of the Jiuli lineage, followed by disciples from the main and branch courtyards.
"Roar!"
A deafening roar echoed, boundless imperial might surging forth. A sky-covering sea demon appeared, with a human head and snake body, wielding a bone fork and carrying boundless imperial might, charging forward.
Long Chen's heart tightened. This sea demon's aura was so strong, even stronger than those Human Emperors who attacked the academy. This was a true powerhouse.
Those powerful figures attacking Lingxiao Academy—even those from the Qin Sect, Chess Sect, and Celestial Clan—had long held high positions and lived in comfort, having not fought for years, their fighting instincts had long since deteriorated.
If they could suppress the opponent with the Human Emperor's pressure, they would win; if not, they would basically be doomed. But the demon beast Human Emperor before them was different; its aura was clearly honed through years of warfare. This was a true powerhouse.
Afraid everyone couldn't hold them off, Long Chen was about to strike when Xia Chen shouted, "Boss, Zifeng, don't make a move. Give us some chance." After
Xia Chen finished speaking, more than a dozen talismans shot out from his hand, exploding beside the demon beast human emperor. As the talismans burst open, endless flames and thunder roared. The demon beast human emperor let out a miserable scream, nearly scorched by the power of thunder and fire.
Long Chen was stunned. Wasn't this thunder and fire power the power of Huo Ling'er and Lei Ling'er?
"Hehe, Brother Xia Chen asked us for some source power to carve talismans, so we gave them to him. We didn't expect Brother Xia Chen's talismans to be so powerful." Huo Ling'er giggled.
At that moment, Long Chen immediately understood: Xia Chen had used the power of their origins to carve talismans, and with the power of runes, he amplified their destructive power to the limit.
"Boom boom boom...
Just as the demon human emperor was suffering a huge loss, Gu Yang was already wielding a brand-new spear and attacking it. After more than a dozen consecutive fierce exchanges, Gu Yang was blasted back by the blow, blood spraying wildly. Clearly, compared to the demon beast human emperor's strength, he was still far behind and couldn't take it down in one strike while it was still heavily wounded by Xia Chen.
"Again!"
Gu Yang wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and roared angrily. The phenomenon behind him trembled, dragon blood power ignited, and he charged at the demon human emperor once more.
"Buzz!"
Just as everyone was locked in a bloody battle, the entire island suddenly trembled slightly, and then a terrifying aura radiated out. As soon as that aura appeared, the demon clan's Human Emperor Qiang was strongThe aura of the person seemed so insignificant.
"Is this island alive?" Long Chen was shocked.
