Chapter 88 Conflict!
Long Chen never would’ve thought that this man had such a strange and disgusting perversion.
Being drooled over like that made his stomach churn. What the hell does this guy want? He was very confused.
But the man only snickered. “Be a good boy and come here! Let me treat you well!”
Long Chen almost vomited. He recalled the strange type of men who liked boys, and this man was obviously one of those.
The man was about to attack when Long Chen turned into an illusion right before his eyes.
The member of the Blood Saints squinted, watching the flickering shadow. He’s so young, but he’s already a cultivator. He must be the disciple of a nearby family. This makes it much more exciting!
With that thought, he saw Long Chen’s flickering shadow instantly speed up a hundred times more. He’d only blinked once, but Long Chen had disappeared.
At the next moment, a punch strong enough to force last night’s dinner out of his stomach landed on his abdomen. He cried in agony, then he crouched painfully and curled up like cooked shrimp.
What just happened? How is the boy so fast? Was that a Body Combat Technique? Does that mean this boy is from a strong faction?
The man had lived a violent and bloody life. Although he was in great pain, he hadn’t lost his ability to think.
He thought that Long Chen might be a prodigy from a large faction. In his haze of pain, his eyes darted quickly and he clambered onto his knees, begging with flowing tears and snot, “Please, Sir! I, Li Yan, have never done anything evil in my life. I’ve also never hurt you, Sir! Please show me mercy! Please let a lowly man like me live!”
“Is that so? Didn’t you say you wanted to ‘treat me well?’” said Long Chen through clenched teeth.
“No! I wouldn’t dare! Sir, you’re an extraordinary talent and your life is not something a lowly being like me can touch,” cried Li Yan pitifully.
This bastard is trying to act pitiful now. But am I really that gullible? Based on the bloodiness of his aura, I’m sure he’s harmed countless people! The Blood Saints may be a mysterious bunch, but that’s not a place for good men.
Long Chen wanted to kill him, but Li Yan could be useful. Without another word, he kicked Li Yan’s head with a loud thud, pressing the man’s head on the ground.
The strong impact brought Li Yan even more pain than before. He never would’ve expected such a harmless-looking guy like Long Chen to be this violent!
His vision blurred as pain seared through his head, but there was no time for him to go unconscious. The foot on the back of his head was basically a knife held to his brain!
This assault had taken him completely by surprise; all he dared to do now was keep begging for mercy. His life was completely in Long Chen’s hands. “I’m not wasting any time on you. You have two options. One, death. Two, also death.”
This scared Li Yan, and the color drained instantly from his face. When he heard that he would die in a place like this, with his face pressed into the dirt, he fell into despair!
Long Chen was secretly amused by the bastard’s crying. He could tell that this guy had no guts in him. “What the fuck are you crying for? I’m just kidding! I’ll give you two options now. One, still death; two, bring us to the Blood Saints’ base!”
Li Yan, who had lost all hope, was ecstatic to hear this offer, though his excitement quickly turned into shock. It didn’t take much intelligence for him to realize that Long Chen was here for the Blood Saints!
His mind raced within the next few moments. The kid was making so much noise because he wanted to lure me out and then interrogate me about the locations of the others. Looking at him, I think he’s planning to save the girls we captured from Yanluo Town!
He really is a brave kid. I can’t believe he came here alone at such a young age. Whatever, I’ll just take you there. Let’s see how you’ll fare in front of our two Protectors! You’ve hit me twice already! I’m never going to forget this!
When he saw the bastard’s eyes darting back and forth, Long Chen knew what he was thinking.
His task at hand was mainly to find the Blood Saints’ base. Huang Feiyang was going to deal with what came later, so he didn’t care what plans Li Yan was cooking. “You’re taking a long time to think. Have you decided? Or are you picking the option to die?”
Li Yan was frightened and said hurriedly, “Sir! I pick the second one, the second one! I’ll take you there now!”
“Oh?”
Long Chen eyed him teasingly. “Promise not to pull any tricks?”
“I would never!”
Long Chen smiled nonchalantly. “I’ll make you regret being born into this world if you have any naughty thoughts on the way there! There are many people like you in the Blood Saints anyway. I can just lure another one and I’ll still find your base!”
“Yes, yes! You’re right, Sir!” Li Yan nodded hurriedly.
Long Chen let him go. The man crawled up unto his feet with a humbled look. Long Chen gave him a look, and he led the way obediently.
Long Chen looked in Huang Feiyang’s direction teasingly, as if to challenge him, then followed Li Yan with a grin.
Within a bush far away, Huang Feiyang glared coldly when he saw Long Chen’s look. “What are you being so smug about? When you arrive, that will be your final moment.”
“Brother Huang, isn’t Long Chen a Beast Warrior? He’s at the Eighth Draconic Stage, but he didn’t even use his Beast Soul Transformation. He defeated a same-level opponent so easily?!”
Wen Ya felt like something was wrong.
Huang Feiyang also furrowed his eyebrows. “The brat’s a little stronger now than the day of the qualifiers. Looks like he had a breakthrough, so he’s probably at the Ninth Draconic Stage now. There’s nothing strange about that!”
“Long Chen indeed has some talent. That Body Combat Technique just now... We only saw the tip of the iceberg, but it was already impressive. Why was it so familiar?”
“That’s the Nine Heavens Dragon Step from the Lingwu family.” Although he couldn’t believe it himself, Huang Feiyang continued reluctantly, “It’s only been about five days since he received the Nine Heavens Dragon Step, yet he can already sort of use it. I think Boss Feng Wutian is the only one at the Turquoise Sun Hall with as much talent as him. Bu Wen Ya ...”
Huang Feiyang’s expression darkened as he continued, “This is exactly the kind of person that we must kill before he progresses!
“If we give him space to grow, only more problems will come in the future.”
Although Wen Ya didn’t want to be Long Chen’s enemy, he had no choice because of his good friend Huang Feiyang. “Let’s go. Let’s end this troublesome brat’s life.”

After crossing a few hills, they arrived at a patch of forest where the trees had started to wilt and turn yellow. Strange boulders protruded from the ground, making the place very hidden.
The Blood Saints had already cleared the beasts in the area, whose nests were useful for temporary shelter and hostage-holding cells for the captured girls. “S-sir, right in front. Our brothers are still drinking and eating right now. The captured girls are deep inside that cave. I guarantee they’re not hurt ...”
As they approached, Long Chen could faintly detect human auras in front, as well as the faint smell of alcohol and meat. Far away in the forest, there were faint traces of smoke rising into the sky.
Now that they had arrived, Li Yan was no longer needed.
Li Yan looked at Long Chen nervously. It was the crossroads of death for him. He was completely prepared for this moment, looking for the perfect opportunity to attack Long Chen and run.
He didn’t need to defeat Long Chen. As long as he could run away, he could get the Blood Saints to protect him.
The Blood Saints were practically right in front of them already. He thought Long Chen would rush over, but the teen stopped unexpectedly, grinning at Li Yan. “Sir, our people are just ahead ... Sir, you said you’d let me go. Have you changed your mind?”
“No, I’m just waiting for someone,” said Long Chen calmly.
“Waiting for someone?”
Li Yan was puzzled, but he soon saw two other powerful cultivators emerging from the vegetation behind. These two had piercing gazes and radiated much more power than Long Chen!
He panicked, finally understanding that he had underestimated Long Chen. He thought Long Chen was a brash hero who had entered the mountain alone for a girl, thinking he could fight them all. He didn’t expect Long Chen to have other people with him!
All three of them were powerful young cultivators, and a frightening phrase came to his mind! “You guys are ... The Lingwu family?!”
“You’re right!”
Huang Feiyang and Wen Ya appeared in front of Li Yan in the blink of an eye. Huang Feiyang smirked coldly, then he thrust his fist at Li Yan’s abdomen. Although it was a simple punch, it was a punch from a mid-Human Core Realm cultivator! One hit was enough to kill Li Yan!
The viciousness in Huang Feiyang’s eyes was more intense than Long Chen’s, so when he appeared, Li Yan knew he was done for!
At the critical crossroads of life and death, Li Yan unleashed all the strength in his body to escape!
“You think you can escape from me?”
Huang Feiyang had been suppressing his anger for far too long. Since he couldn’t act on Long Chen now, he vented on Li Yan. This was also a good opportunity to intimidate Long Chen!
Li Yan and Huang Feiyang were separated by many cultivation levels, so it was impossible to escape with such a short distance between them. Being immersed in violence all year round, Li Yan had long been prepared for death.
But he was extremely unwilling to die by Huang Feiyang’s hand!
When he was in despair, a figure blocked in front of him and forced Huang Feiyang back with a punch that seemed to sparkle with starlight!
Li Yan looked closer, only to realize that it was Long Chen!
