Chapter 502 - Plan

“Direct disciple?! How is Jiang Cheng your direct disciple?! You can only take one every year!” the Red Ghost King hollered.

“Are you stupid? I did want to accept Huangfu Qi as my direct disciple, but since she’s someone important from the Huangfu family, I had to let her go. Since she’s gone, I can naturally have Jiang Cheng take her place. Who are you to come and question my freedom?” The Clear Shallows King\'s face was filled with frost and arrogance.

“Fine! I won’t talk about that right now. You know why I’m here. Even though he’s your direct disciple, he can’t just kill mine! Jiang Cheng must die today!” The Red Ghost King didn’t want to fight the Clear Shallows King if possible, because there were no benefits to that, and they would also get reprimanded by the Demon Emperor.

But Long Chen had to pay!

The Red Ghost King doted on Zhao Wuji. He intended to train him to become the second Ying Shaotian. In a few years, he would have two geniuses under his care and he would defeat the other Kings. That was why he had given Zhao Wuji the Nine Heavens Thunder Talisman to defend his life. But then the news of his disciple’s passing reached his ears merely hours later.

The Red Ghost King’s heart shattered when he heard that, so he had grabbed Ying Shaotian and rushed to the Clear Shallows Pavilion to get revenge.

But things were not going as smoothly as he had thought. Even though Zhao Wuji was his direct disciple, the Clear Shallows King was claiming that Long Chen was her direct disciple as well. It would’ve been fine for him to kill Long Chen if the latter were just a normal disciple, but how could a Demon King let someone kill their direct disciple?

Long Chen nodded in his heart. The Clear Shallows King was determined to protect him. Long Chen was officially her direct disciple after she announced it today. That meant he was now qualified to go to the third layer of the Demon World. Also, since he was at the Seventh Passage Stage, he could go to the region where the other Seventh Passage Stage disciples were.

The Red Ghost King still intended to take Long Chen’s life despite everything.

The Clear Shallows King scoffed, “Red Ghost King, everyone is bound by rules. You cannot treat my direct disciple as a nobody while calling your direct disciple an important person at the same time. The masters must come out to mediate when disciples fight. Also, while Zhao Wuji was indeed killed by Jiang Cheng, do you know the reason why? Jiang Cheng, tell us what happened.”

Long Chen explained what had happened the previous night. The Red Ghost King knew that ever since Zhao Wuji reached the Fifth Passage Stage, he had knocked on Long Chen’s door every day to redeem his dishonor. While he believed Long Chen’s story, he didn’t want to accept it.

“Fucking bullshit! He used the Nine Heavens Thunder Talisman, and there’s no way you could’ve avoided it! Your story is full of holes! I think you’re hiding something from me about his death. Did someone set up an ambush to kill him?” The Red Ghost King’s eyes were like cold daggers as he glared at Long Chen.

“What are you insinuating?” The Clear Shallows King was angered.

“What do I mean? My direct disciple was killed and I demand an explanation! I will never back down! My disciples cannot die without a reason!”

The Red Ghost King was saying that he wouldn’t leave without an explanation.

“You want one? Fine, I will play by your rules! Come, let’s fight! It’s been five years since we sparred, but don’t you dare assume I’m afraid of you!” The Clear Shallows King\'s eyes glittered with cold light. Since the Red Ghost King was refusing to step back, she had no intention of stepping back either. In fact, she was even more angry. She would rather fight the Red Ghost King right here and now.

“You and me? Fine!” The Red Ghost King laughed but stopped halfway. “You have guts. I don’t think I will be satisfied if I don’t fight you today! Two Demon Kings fighting against each other! I guess this will be the highlight of the day!”

Their Qi built up slowly while their argument escalated. The other three felt uncomfortable by the amount of Qi permeating in the air.

Just then, Ying Shaotian suddenly interjected, “May the two Kings please listen to my plea? Both of you occupy high positions in the Ancient Demon Domain. If you fight now, it will affect our reputation and, more importantly, yours. Since the disciples were the ones who committed the offense, we should be the ones to settle the disagreement. How does that sound?”

Long Chen’s eyes shrunk. Based on what he had said, Long Chen deduced that Ying Shaotian was a formidable foe ...

Just as expected, the Clear Shallows King and the Red Ghost King stopped fighting. The Red Ghost King was satisfied with his direct disciple’s idea. In fact, he loved him more than Zhao Wuji. “Shaotian, how do you think we should go about this?”

Ying Shaotian smiled and looked at Long Chen. “Didn’t you say that he could deal with the Nine Heavens Thunder Talisman? My attacks are almost on par with the power of a single talisman, so let me hit him with one move. If Jiang Cheng survives it, that means he is telling the truth. That would mean that my junior really did attempt to challenge Jiang Cheng and even used an underhanded technique just to die in shame. If that’s the case, he deserved it ...”

Ying Shaotian was an eloquent and smart man. After hearing the conversation between the Red Ghost King and the Clear Shallows King, he had obtained the key information and put it to use. He actually wanted to use his Eighth Passage Stage strength to deal with Long Chen, and he had made up the perfect excuse for it.

If it were yesterday, Long Chen wouldn’t have been able to take even a single one of his attacks. Therefore, he was under the assumption that he could just kill Long Chen and say it was an accident.

The Red Ghost King was impressed by his direct disciple’s intellect and laughed. “You are right. Let’s do as you’ve said. Clear Shallows King, do you accept? If not, your direct disciple is lying, and you won’t be able to blame me for what happens next ...”

The Clear Shallows King hesitated. Ying Shaotian was indeed strong, and even she didn’t know how to turn the situation around. She would be asking for Long Chen to die if she asked him to take even a single hit from Ying Shaotian.

The Clear Shallows King was about to reject that proposal when Long Chen interjected, “That’s a good idea. Let’s do it right now. But if I manage to block it, take your master and get out of here. We do not welcome you here.”

“Jiang Cheng ...” Both the Clear Shallows King and Liu Yiyi were shocked. They thought Long Chen was being rash. Liu Yiyi had seen Ying Shaotian’s strength, and he was stronger than her, so she was worried.

Both the Red Ghost King and Ying Shaotian were surprised by how fast Long Chen had agreed. Ying Shaotian had a feeling that the situation was now beyond his control after a single sentence from Long Chen.

“To be fair, I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for the death of my junior.” Ying Shaotian nodded and accepted Long Chen’s proposal. If Long Chen could block a single attack from him, they would leave.

“Don’t worry.” Long Chen said when he saw the Clear Shallows King frowning. He then walked to the empty spot in the middle of the pavilion and looked at Ying Shaotian. “Come, stop wasting our time.”

The Red Ghost King and Ying Shaotian exchanged looks before the latter approached Long Chen. Ying Shaotian stopped ten meters away from his target and looked at him carefully. He sensed nothing wrong with Long Chen.

I watched him barely beat someone at the Fourth Passage Stage during the qualifiers. He’s much weaker than me, yet he agreed to my proposal? Might as well kill him and let Master reward me later on ...

Ying Shaotian circulated his Qi and turned serious. A soft wind blew his sleeves, making him look like a godly general descending from the heavens.

Long Chen decided not to transform. It was not yet time for him to reveal his true strength. He only needed to chase the two of them away today.

Liu Yiyi and the Clear Shallows KIng looked on with concern on their faces. To the Clear Shallows King, Long Chen was her hope for the event in one month. If he died, she would be in trouble too.

Ying Shaotian’s body flashed and he shot towards Long Chen like a tornado. When he got close, he pointed at Long Chen with his finger. The atmosphere changed, and strong wind hurled past the pavilion and blew Long Chen’s hair wildly.
