Chapter 318 - Risky Journey

The strongest person in the battle was Song Zhongzhen at the Sixth River Stage. Even though he was not as strong as Elder Yan and the Ninth Prince, he was still barely able to fight in the domain. Still, the blood going wild inside of his body was new to him. The dwarves below the Heavenly River Realm exploded into clouds of bloody mist the moment they were trapped in the domain.

“I can’t absorb their blood ...”

Blood was an irresistible resource to Long Chen. Ever since he used the Nine Heavens True Fire Beast’s blood to advance into the Fourth River Stage, the killing instinct of the Ancient Bloodsoul Dragon had slowly gripped his heart. There were times where he even lost control of himself. He had told himself that he wouldn’t use Blood Transmutation for the time being, especially on humans.

Long Chen did not use Blood Transmutation, but the dwarves were still terrified. Not only had he incapacitated most of them, he had even caused many of the dwarves to outright explode into nothing. To them, Long Chen was a demon!

“Impossible! This is the technique of a god!” Song Zhongzhen was surprised too. He saw that the dwarves around him were pale as their blood thrashed wildly in their bodies. Once he determined that there was no hope, he shouted as loud as he could, “Everyone, retreat! Retreat now!”

He kept shouting while trying to escape from the effect of the Blood Devouring Domain.

But Long Chen would never let them go.

“Xiaolang, use your clones to stop him. Kill him if you can. I will kill the others first. We need to kill all of them as quickly as possible!”

Long Chen howled and became a shadow of blood. He appeared amidst the dwarves and started his slaughter. Painful shrieks filled the air.

None of them could fight back, especially under the effect of Blood Devouring Domain. Long Chen’s hatred for them was so intense that he showed no mercy. If he didn’t kill them now, they would extend their disgusting arms towards even more innocent people. The dwarves were creatures that harmed others for the sake of fun!

Xiaolang did not hesitate. He had only used up a few clones to defeat Elder Yan. There were still more than a hundred left, and all of them were currently chasing Song Zhongzhen! They leaped through the dwarves and focused on their prey.

The clones were not affected by the domain, while Song Zhongzhen was heavily suppressed. He couldn’t circulate his Qi without resistance, and he had a feeling that his attacks would be interrupted halfway due to his berserking blood.

“Nooo! NOOOOO!” Song Zhongzhen shouted in despair. As long as the domain was in effect, he could not use his full strength. Long Chen wanted this to end soon, so he told Xiaolang to use any means necessary to subdue Song Zhongzhen. Soon, the numerous clones engulfed their target.

Within the fiery lotus that Xiaolang had created, the Eighth River Stage Song Zhongcheng was still capable of listening to what was happening outside. He became desperate when he heard the dwarves crying out in pain.

“Long Chen, what are you doing?! Are you killing the dwarves?! You will die today!”

“I’ve already killed so many. Do you think I’ll just let them run? Oh, this one looks as ugly as you. Must be your brother. He has probably killed even more than me, so I’m doing the heavens a favor by killing him. Now that he’s dead, I will do the rest to the others too.”

Long Chen taunted Song Zhongcheng while the latter was jumping up and down inside the fire lotus out of anger. Song Zhongcheng almost broke down in tears when he saw the dwarves outside dying left and right. He could do nothing while he was trapped in the fire lotus. He tried breaking it apart from the inside, but his efforts were futile.

The only thing he could do was wait until the fire lotus disappeared. He saw that the fire lotus’s strength was diminishing very slowly.

“Long Chen, you will die! Not only you, but all the people around you! I will skin all of them! They will never reincarnate again!” Song Zhongchen shouted like a madman from inside the fire lotus.

“Really?” Long Chen chuckled as he waved the Azure Dragon Halberd wildly. Every time he did, he killed another dwarf. With the help of Xiaolang’s clones, the number of dwarves was quickly diminishing. The painful cries never stopped. The villagers of Goldfish Island heard the shout, but none of them stopped him. They knew that Long Chen was slaughtering the despicable dwarves, and all of them were secretly happy.

The sinful dwarves were culled by Long Chen like a farmer harvesting the fields. None of them managed to escape with the domain suppressing them. Even those at the Fourth River Stage could not escape.

Long Chen ignored Song Zhongcheng’s threat and continued killing the dwarves. When all of the dwarves were finally dead, Long Chen’s body and weapon were covered in fresh blood.

Song Zhongcheng was the only living dwarf in the vicinity. The rest had been killed.

Long Chen jumped into the lake and washed the blood off his body. He then approached Ling Xi and Xiaolang in a hurry. “We need to run now.”

He was still cloaked in a murderous and gloomy aura, and it frightened Ling Xi. She held his arm carefully. “Brother Chen, are you alright?”

Long Chen was slowly breaking free of the Ancient Bloodsoul Dragon’s influence and becoming more rational. Seeing the care and worry in Ling Xi’s eyes helped him calm down. For some reason, looking into her eyes made him calm down very fast.

“Time to go.” He placed Ling Xi on Xiaolang’s back. Since he was in his battle form, carrying Ling Xi on his massive body was not an issue. Long Chen sat behind Ling Xi to make sure she wouldn’t fall off.

Xiaolang howled excitedly.

Even though he had used the fire lotus and lost his ability to use the Nine Devils Ancestral Fire for ten days, the backlash on his body was not as terrible as he had thought. He was more than capable of carrying both Long Chen and Ling Xi.

All three of them were excited to leave the capital behind.

Hope was in front of them.

“You think you can leave peacefully? You are too naive, Long Chen. You’ve underestimated the power of the imperial family. As long as you are in the Cangyang Kingdom, you will always be under the surveillance of the imperial family. You are an idiot if you think you can leave the kingdom after killing the Ninth Prince! Even I couldn’t do it!”

Song Zhongcheng howled angrily from inside the lotus.

Long Chen was well aware that it would be very difficult to escape the kingdom after killing the Ninth Prince, especially since Ling Xi was just a normal human now. She was weak and vulnerable and would require more time to rest than normal cultivators. As a result, they would only be able to travel at a third of their potential speed.

“This is a risky journey, but we will be safe as long as we can escape. I can live peacefully with Ling Xi as long as we’re careful!”

Long Chen carefully hugged Ling Xi and whispered to XIaolang, “Let’s go. Run as fast as you can.”

XIaolang howled and shot forward like an arrow. He was soon a dot on the horizon.

Once Xiaolang completely disappeared, Chen Feng and Chen Lei stared at each other in shock.

“Lei’er, if I’m not mistaken, the death of the Ninth Prince will shake the entire Cangyang Kingdom! The Patriarch of the Harmony family will definitely seek us out to vent his anger after so many dwarves died. We need to leave Goldfish Island now!”

“But Goldfish Island is the land our ancestors left for us. How could we run away just like that?” Chen Lei was uncertain.

“And what other choice do we have? The ancestors would rather us protect our lives and not get eradicated. We have to run now so we can live to see another day. The situation has changed now. Before this, the dwarves wanted to take over Goldfish Island. But now that Long Chen has killed so many of them, they will be focusing their resources on Long Chen instead of taking over a small place like Goldfish Island. We need to escape while we can!”

Chen Lei agreed with his father after listening to his explanation. Both of them ran as fast as they could back to the village to inform the others.

Ever since the dwarves first came to the village, everyone had made preparations to escape at a moment’s notice. As soon as Chen Feng told them to leave, the villagers immediately took their belongings and escaped their ancestral home.

Song Zhongcheng was howling like a beast inside the lotus, his voice reverberating in the skies.

Even though Long Chen had escaped, the news of him killing the Ninth Prince would soon reach the capital. Once it did, there would be many people hunting him down. Numerous life-or-death battles awaited Long Chen.

Could Long Chen at the Fourth River Stage defeat so many enemies?
