Chapter 281 - Goldfish Island

“Ninth Prince! I didn’t expect to see you here! I didn’t have to spend any effort in searching for you after all!”

There was a man clad in a fitted all-black outfit standing on the black eagle’s back. His cunning glare was fixed dead on Lin Cangtian, and the moment he finished speaking, he suddenly threw a punch at the Dragon Falcon!

“He’s from the Heavenly Demon Palace! Old Yan, protect them!”

The Ninth Prince’s face darkened and he was immediately embroiled in battle. The Heavenly Demon Palace member was surprisingly powerful; Long Chen could not even see his attack clearly, and all he felt was a shudder beneath his feet, but the flying Dragon Falcon’s internal organs had already been shattered by the punch. The Dragon Falcon was dead, and they were free-falling!

Old Yan knew that he had no time to save them. Since he was worried about the Ninth Prince’s safety, he abandoned the free-falling Long Chen, Ling Xi, and Mo Xiaolang and rushed towards the Ninth Prince!

Long Chen did not know how the Ninth Prince and Old Yan would save themselves. After the Dragon Falcon died, he held Ling Xi tightly in his arms and they fell from the sky! The wind howled in their ears as they accelerated. Long Chen felt like his bones were separating from their joints.

If he felt that way, Ling Xi, who was now a normal human, was sure to be feeling even worse. Under such dire circumstances, he hugged her tightly.

Due to differences in air resistance, the Dragon Falcon’s carcass fell towards a different direction!

Fortunately, the Dragon Falcon had been flying at a relatively low speed and altitude because they had been approaching the Biyang Imperial Capital. Soon after they fell, Long Chen could already see the ground. He and Ling Xi were carrying powerful momentum from the fall; if Long Chen were alone, he was confident he could divert this momentum and survive, but Ling Xi was present too. She was very fragile, and her bones could break even from a short fall!

What do I do? Long Chen was panicking. Ling Xi had only just gotten to experience owning a body! Was this it?

Xiaolang, who was also falling, suddenly expanded in size so he would reach the ground much sooner than them. The gigantic Sun Devouring Wolf crashed into the ground first!

He had a hardy body that was much stronger than Long Chen’s. Xiaolang landed without injury, then he jumped up to meet Long Chen, who was still midair!

Long Chen sighed in relief, using his Qi to put Ling Xi on Xiaolang’s back. The momentum she carried was absorbed by Xiaolang as he landed, while Long Chen took out the Azure Dragon Halberd. When he touched the ground, he slammed the halberd down. The bounceback from the impact sent him back up into the air, then he landed firmly once more!

Not far away, the Dragon Falcon’s carcass crashed, throwing a plume of dust into the air.

After Long Chen landed, Xiaolang also landed with Ling Xi on his back. He rushed over and found that Ling Xi had successfully survived the landing unscathed, only startled and a little pale from shock. He sighed in relief and pulled her hard into his embrace.

Ling Xi had only just gotten this body, but she had to endure such a huge scare before even reaching the Biyang Imperial Capital. It was rotten luck, but thankfully, she was fine.

“That Heavenly Demon Palace guy was obviously aiming to kill the Ninth Prince. We are now considered part of the Ninth Prince’s faction, and I’m sure they saw us land. It’s best if we leave quickly.”

Long Chen looked up at the sky and realized that he did not know where the Ninth Prince and the Heavenly Demon Palace guy had ended up. He made the decision to lead Ling Xi and Xiaolang away from this place.

Holding Ling Xi, he used the Azure Dragon Halberd to clear a path. To avoid attracting attention, Xiaolang shrank his body once more and hurried after Long Chen.

“The Biyang Imperial Capital is in that direction. The Ninth Prince was ambushed and had to abandon us for the moment. It’s unlikely he’ll turn around to search for us, so I think we should go to the Biyang Imperial Capital on our own.” When the decision was made, Long Chen headed straight towards the Biyang Imperial Capital through the lush, green forest.

It was a beautiful patch of forest with rivers everywhere. There were also lakes of all sizes. Along the way, Long Chen stopped to hunt a few wild rabbits. They started a fire and roasted the rabbits for a good meal. Ling Xi had been eating dry food these past few days, and she was starving, so she drooled when she saw the juicy rabbits.

After the girl was fed, the trio departed once more. Ling Xi clearly could not keep up with Long Chen’s speed, so he carried her on his back.

Long Chen’s mind raced when he felt the warmth coming from her soft body on his back, while Ling Xi also blushed as she inhaled his scent.

Xiaolang followed them, sulking and pretending he had not seen anything.

Although he had just rescued Ling Xi, he couldn’t help feeling like a third wheel ...

A vast lake appeared ahead. The lake was blue and its surface was tranquil, and they could faintly make out a small island ahead. There was smoke rising from the island, so there had to be people staying there.

“It’s getting late. Let’s rest for the night on that little island and continue our journey tomorrow. I’m sure we’ll arrive at the Biyang Imperial Capital very soon,” Long Chen said.

Xiaolang had been trying to communicate something to Ling Xi for a long time, and she finally understood. “Brother Chen, Xiaolang says he recognizes this island. He was there when he was young; it’s called Goldfish Island.”

“Goldfish Island? That’s perfect if you’re still familiar with the place.”

Mo Xiaolang had spent his childhood in the Biyang Imperial Capital.

Long Chen walked on the surface of the lake with Ling Xi on his back. At the same time, he conversed with Xiaolang through Ling Xi, the translator. “So the regions outside the Biyang Imperial Capital are controlled by the four main families of the imperial capital. Goldfish Island and the large flat piece of land nearby all belonged to the Mo family? But you don’t know what the current situation is with the island after the Mo family was destroyed?”

Xiaolang nodded, gazing at the fast-approaching island with nostalgia in his eyes.

His whole family had been killed when he was only six years old, and he had fled with deep enmity in his heart. It was tough for Long Chen to imagine such a tragedy. He was about to comfort his stepbrother when he and Xiaolang heard a fervent cry.

“Help! Die, you dwarf bastard!”

The cry for help rang along with a man’s malicious laughter.

“Let’s go check it out.” Long Chen could not leave a person in distress behind. They followed the source of the voice and quickly arrived. There was a small boat floating on the lake, and two people were fighting in it. It was a male and a female; the man was making animalistic sounds, pinning the girl down as he tore manically at her clothes.

Without a word, Long Chen ran up to them and kicked the man away, making him fall into the water. He did not know the full story, so he hadn’t put much strength into his kick so as not to kill the man. The man was at the Earthly Core Realm, so he would not drown.

Then Long Chen turned to look at the girl on the boat. Fury rose in his heart when he saw her clearly, because she was thin and looked very young, clearly only starting to develop. She was probably only twelve or thirteen years old. That man, who was much older than her, was clearly going to rape this young girl!

“He’s a fucking animal,” cursed Ling Xi, gritting her teeth.

The man had already floated up to the surface, cursing at Long Chen in a language he did not understand. His eyes were red and his glare was fierce. He leaped out of the water, and the aura of an Earthly Core Realm cultivator exploded from his body as he charged at Long Chen.

The man looked very ugly and creepy, his figure stocky and stout. In fact, he was only around Long Chen’s chest level. However, the violence and insanity in his eyes showed that he was not someone to be messed with.

“You brat! How dare you touch a noble dwarf! You’re looking for death!” Finally, the guy spoke in a language Long Chen could understand, though he had a strange accent. Long Chen only understood him with great effort.

“Dwarf? What’s that?” But by now, how could he not see that the bastard was an animal? When he leaped out of the water to kill Long Chen, Long Chen punctured his chest using his Sword Devil Finger!

The stout man’s eyes widened, and he fell backwards into the water. His eyes did not close upon death. Blood poured out of his chest and very quickly dyed the surrounding water red.

The young girl saw clearly that Long Chen had killed the dwarf. She stood up, smoothened her clothes, then thanked him politely. “Thank you, Big Brother and Big Sister, for saving my life. I’m Xiao Yu.”

The young girl was strong-hearted. She did not cry even after such a harrowing experience.

“What happened here, Xiao Yu?” Long Chen guessed that she was from the small island.

“That man is a dwarf. I thought they would not come today, that’s why I came out to play. I didn’t expect to meet him! If you hadn’t saved me, I would have died,” she said fearfully.

“What is a dwarf?” he asked, sitting down on the boat with Ling Xi.
