"Crack!"
Aman bit down the giant horn with its huge mouth. That incomparably hard horn, which even Long Chen's dragon bone, Xie Yue, couldn't sever, was bitten off by Aman in one bite.
"Ah..."
The man from the Hexe-Horned Sea Serpent clan let out a heart-wrenching roar. Those six giant horns were his foundation, connected to his soul. Aman devoured his horns as if they were devouring his soul.
"Rumble... The
man from the Hexagonal Sea Serpent clan struggled desperately, trying to throw Aman off his head, but Aman clung to the giant horn and wouldn't let go, biting like a mouse.
"Crack crack... The
hard horn was quickly gnawed open, and the bone dust falling from the horn contained endless life energy and Heavenly Dao runes. Aman devoured it like a hungry wolf encountering flesh and blood.
"Bastard, get lost...!"
The man from the Hexagonal Sea Serpent clan roared, dove into the earth, and sped beneath it, trying to shake off Aman. The earth shattered as he pressed forward, traveling thousands of miles in an instant, with a terrifying momentum.
With a loud explosion, the man from the Hexagonal Sea Serpent clan finally emerged from the earth, shaking off Aman. However, people noticed that his head was covered in blood. One of his giant horns was gone, the hexagonal had turned into five, and his aura rapidly declined.
"Bastard, just you wait..."
The man from the Hexagonal Sea Serpent clan let out a heart-wrenching howl, his voice seemingly tinged with tears.
The earth exploded, and Aman's figure crawled out from the earth, clutching a huge horn in his arms—the very head of the hexagonal sea serpent clan man—which he had actually bitten off by him.
People couldn't help but feel a chill run down their spines. This Aman was practically a monster, a man-eating monster. Especially those mysterious beasts, who looked at him with eyes full of fear.
"Rumble... The
endless sea demon clan charged out wildly. The Dragonblood Legion was too few to stop such a terrifying army and could only let them escape.
The sea demon clan left, leaving countless corpses as high as mountains on the land. The whole world was stained red with blood, the stench overwhelming.
The powerful warriors of the Sea Demon clan rushed away like a torrent, coming fiercely and hurriedly. With a wave of his hand, they left behind a pile of corpses, but not a single cloud of cloud with them.
"The Great Emperor is gone, the sea demon is gone. Let's settle the score properly. Let's settle the scores between us."
Long Chen stood in midair, holding the Dragon Bone Evil Moon, looking down at the powerful figures of the major factions, his killing intent surging to the heavens.
When he was bound by the Stone Emperor and the Blood Emperor's heroic spirit, the Dragonblood Legion was besieged, and he had to risk severely damaging the Dragonblood Legion by launching a suicide attack.
Now that the crisis was over, it was time to settle scores. The Dragon Bone Evil Moon in Long Chen's hand trembled, his eyes filled with cold killing intent.
In an instant, the strong figures from Dan Valley, Evil Path, Ancient Clan, Xuan Beast Clan, and the Ancient Clan Alliance all changed their expressions.
They hadn't expected Long Chen to be so brutal. Even after killing to this point, he still wouldn't stop and insisted on killing.
"Long Chen, this is all a misunderstanding. Now that the Great Emperor has appeared, the misunderstanding has been resolved. Don't keep fighting among ourselves." Nangong Zuiyue spoke.
"Indeed, Emperor Moli has already said that the power of the Imperial Seal is rapidly fading. In three months, the blood clan will break free and arrive. We cannot afford internal strife any longer; we need to join forces to resist powerful enemies and unite against external threats." Beitang Rushuang also tried to persuade her.
Now, whether it was Long Chen and his Dragonblood Legion, or the major powers, they were all at the end of their rope.
If they fought head-on at this point, there would inevitably be endless casualties. If the Tianwu Continent was severely weakened, how could they possibly resist the Blood Clan? Once the vampires fully invade, the continent will be overturned.
"Internal strife?" Was it me who started the internal conflict? It's idiots who deliberately target me. Why should I stop?
When they killed me, why didn't they think about internal strife, or the safety of the Tianwu Continent? Why should I think about it?
If it weren't for the Great Emperor's intervention, all my brothers would have died here. Who would have shed a single tear for us?
Don't ask me for anything about righteousness. I, Long Chen, don't understand. All I know is, if anyone wants me dead, I'll let them die. All you belong to the Dragon Blood Legion—kill me, and avenge the brothers and sisters of the Cloud-Chasing Cloud Swallowing Skysparrow clan who died in battle. Long Chen roared loudly.
"Kill!"
Long Chen shouted sharply, slashing out the Evil Moon of Dragon Bone, charging straight at Dongfang Yuyang.
"Boom!"
After continuous battles, Dongfang Yuyang was exhausted. Long Chen struck the silver shield with a single blade, blood spraying wildly as he was sent flying.
"Pfft!"
Just as Dongfang Yuyang was sent flying, his face suddenly changed drastically. Runes lit up all over his body, and in midair, a dagger suddenly appeared in front of his neck, slicing through the air as blood splattered.
Dongfang Yuyang's head was severed by a dagger, shocking countless people. It was none other than the goddess Dongming Yu of the Blood Slaughter Hall who had made her move.
Previously, she had always resisted the Blood Emperor's heroic spirit, and no one had ever witnessed her true killing move. Now, once she made her move, even Dongfang Yuyang was powerless to resist.
Dongfang Yuyang's head flew up, and his whole body slowly dissipated.
"Clone?"
People were startled and looked into the distance. The void twisted, and Dongfang Yuyang's body appeared. Blood gushed wildly from his neck. Although he blocked with his clone at the critical moment, his true body teleported away and narrowly escaped death.
But Dongming Yu's attack was terrifying, without any warning. He reacted quickly enough, yet still nearly had his head cut off, his face pale with fear. No wonder he was the number one assassin on the Tianwu Continent—he nearly took his life.
"Whoosh"
Dongming Yu missed her strike, her figure vanishing in an instant, and no trace of her fluctuations could be detected in the world anymore.
With Dongming Yu gone, Dongfang Yuyang immediately felt his scalp tingle. With a sharp shout, he summoned the Star Castle and actually entered the castle. He was terrified. Facing an assassin who came and went without a trace, he was terrified. The feeling of having one's life taken at any moment—no one could resist.
"Pfft"
Dongfang Yuyang turned into a turtle hiding in his head. In the distance, Kunpengzi sensed danger and immediately summoned Kunpeng's true form, but the dagger still pierced his head.
But because he rapidly grew larger, the strike missed and didn't pierce his crystal core. Still, the terrifying divine might made him let out a painful roar.
"Buzz!"
Kunpengzi's whole body glowed, thunder roaring for miles. Dongming Yu's petite figure was blasted away by the lightning.
Dongming Yu struck twice, nearly killing Dongfang Yuyang and Kunpengzi. His terrifying assassination techniques sent chills down the spines of all the strong warriors—it was simply impossible to guard against.
Dongming Jade Dagger trembled, just about to continue attacking when suddenly a mouthful of fresh blood spat out, and his whole body was like a penfalling straight down from the sky.
Long Chen had just blasted Dongfang Yuyang's castle away with a single strike, preparing to smash him with a brick to see if he could shatter it. Seeing Dongming Yu in such a state, he hurriedly ran off and grabbed Dongming Yu tightly.
"Xiaoyu'er, what's wrong?"
Long Chen held Dongming Jade in his arms. He was horrified to discover that Dongmingyu's aura was chaotic, her vitality weakening, and a divine pattern appeared on her brow. It was golden at first, then gradually turned black. That divine mark was devouring her life and soul.
"She betrayed the gods and has already been discovered by them. They have begun to bring down divine punishment. She will suffer the torment of ten thousand poisons devouring souls, never to be reborn." Zhong Ziyang, the master of the Bloodkill Hall, sneered.
At this moment, Zhong Ziyang's eyes were filled with hatred and fear. Dongming Yu, the goddess, had actually betrayed the God of Slaughter and slaughtered all the elite disciples of the Blood Killing Hall, leaving the hall from then on to decline.
With such a catastrophic disaster, even the Hall Master himself would likely be punished. Now, seeing divine punishment descend, he too began to tremble with fear.
Dongming Yu ran into trouble, and all the Dragonblood warriors surrounded him, losing the mood to fight. The Dragonblood Legion stopped fighting, and the powerful figures from all major factions felt relieved and retreated. As for launching a sneak attack, even though they knew this was the best opportunity, they didn't have the courage—they were terrified of being killed.
The six twelfth-tier magical beasts were also exhausted and unable to unleash their divine powers, yet they guarded the area around the Dragonblood Legion, still exerting endless pressure and making people afraid to approach.
Chu Yaoyu formed hand seals, and pure life force poured into Dongming Jade's body. Mengqi also channeled her primordial spirit power into Dongming Jade's body, helping her resist the rune's devouring force.
But the rune was like a terrifying beast, endlessly absorbing the life force and primordial spirit power of Dongming Jade. No amount of power was enough for it to devour.
But with the support of the two, Dongming Yu's trembling body improved slightly, though her pretty face remained as pale as paper.
"Brother Long Chen, I'm truly sorry. I shattered the statue of the God of Slaughter, thinking I could buy you more time to help you clear out more enemies. That way, even if I die, I can rest easy..." Dongming Yu looked at Long Chen, her pale face tinged with a trace of apology.
"Without you, all of us would have died. You've already done me a huge favor. Besides, I won't let you die, don't worry..." Long Chen's mind was in turmoil. Dongming Yu carried a divine curse, a curse that came from the depths of the soul and couldn't be cured. He could only comfort him while trying to find a solution.
Dongming Yu shook her head, lying in Long Chen's arms, her pretty face full of satisfaction:
"Since I was born into this world, no one has truly cared about me. It's as if I was born as a pawn, and even my parents never cared about me."
In this world, there's only Brother Long Chen. You truly treat me well. I clearly wanted to kill you, yet you still let me go.
The look of regret and pity in your eyes at that moment is something I will never forget for the rest of my life. From that day on, I swore that in this life, I will live only for you, Brother Long Chen.
You are the god in my heart. You are the only person in this world who loves and cares for me, never treating me as a pawn. You are my only one, and my everything. Hearing
Dongming Yu's murmurs, Long Chen's heart ached. He hadn't treated her well; back then, she was just an innocent child. Anyone else couldn't harm such an innocent child.
But this insignificant matter was firmly remembered by Dongming Yu, who was determined to repay him, even at the cost of betraying the gods and bearing divine punishment.
Dongming Yu was unfortunate, so whenever someone showed her even a little affection, she would cherish it twice as much, repaying it with her life.
"Xiaoyu'er, don't say anything. I'll take you to meet someone. Maybe she can save you." Long Chen fed Dongming Yu a pill, temporarily using it to ward off the curse.
"Belonging to the Dragonblood Legion. Today's matter will end here for now. Let's go."
With a wave of Long Chen's hand, everyone jumped onto the backs of the Cloud-Chasing Swallowing Sparrow clan's strong figures. Long Chen glanced at the old man and the others, who nodded, and only then did Long Chen lead his men to gallop away.
