Dragon Blooded War God Chapter 489: Liu Yiyi

Chapter 489: Liu Yiyi

After Long Chen finished, he looked at Qin Huanyu in a goading manner.
Everyone was impressed by Long Chen’s shamelessness. He clearly wanted to challenge Qin Huanyu to a duel in public, yet he had presented such a noble reason. Only someone with thick skin would do such a thing!
He was clearly challenging Qin Huanyu to a duel. Qin Huanyu was the three-consecutive champion from two years ago, and after growing for two years in the Clear Shallows Pavilion, he had already reached the Sixth Passage Stage and was close to the Seventh Passage Stage. He was one of the top three prodigies of the Clear Shallows Pavilion!
On the other hand, while Long Chen was the three-consecutive champion of the most recent qualifiers, he had been abandoned by the Red Ghost King due to his lack of potential. One was a prodigy, while the other was just an average joe. Now the average joe wanted to challenge the prodigy.
“Just now, Senior Qin obviously did not use his full strength. Jiang Cheng doesn’t know when to stop! The Clear Shallows King has shown him mercy, yet he still wants to cause trouble. Isn’t he looking for death?”
“Who knows what Jiang Cheng is thinking? Maybe there’s resentment in him because the Red Ghost King abandoned him and he wants to prove himself through Senior Qin. If he can defeat Senior Qin, he will indeed prove that he is a prodigy. It’s just a pity that the opponent he picked is just too difficult to beat!”
“He doesn’t even need to do this. As long as he shows that he is at the Fifth Passage Stage, he is already considered a prodigy. He has an advanced body tempering technique and combat technique after all.”
Everyone discussed among themselves while the Clear Shallows King and the others looked at him.
In the beginning, the Clear Shallows King remained silent. When the crowd was done with their discussions, she looked at Qin Huanyu with a dark expression and said, “Huanyu, what is your decision?”Without hesitation, he said, “I’ll do it! Master, if I can’t even beat him, can I still call myself your disciple?”
“Good, good. Just don’t embarrass me.” The Clear Shallows King nodded and turned to Long Chen. “You said fifteen minutes, so we will do it in fifteen minutes. Everyone, clear out the training grounds and call all the people of the Clear Shallows Pavilion here. Let them watch this ‘lesson.’”
Following the Clear Shallows King’s instructions, the training grounds quickly emptied out. An empty space remained for Long Chen and Qin Huanyu to fight. The regular disciples ran to different parts of the Clear Shallows Pavilion to call all the disciples over, including the older ones.
In the Ancient Demon Domain, anyone who failed to reach the Ninth Passage Stage by the age of thirty was no longer considered a disciple; they were given the title of Elder. If they were not even at the Sixth Passage Stage, then they would be kicked out of the Ancient Demon Domain. Guang Yuan, who was the founder of Heavenly Demon Palace, was likely in this group.
After becoming an Elder, they would become a Demon General if they reached the Ninth Passage Stage. However, people usually exhausted their potential by the time they became Elders. There were many Elders in the Ancient Demon Domain, and most of them were between the Sixth and Eighth Passage Stages. There were more than a hundred of them in the Clear Shallows Pavilion alone, and Elders formed the bulk of the Ancient Demon Domain’s strength.
Of course, due to their exhausted potential, they did not undergo examinations like the disciples did. For example, the fight for the Emperor Flame Pearl, which would happen in a month. It was a grand examination held every five years, and the highest reward was the Emperor Flame Pearl.
Fifteen minutes later, everyone from the Clear Shallows Pavilion was present. There were more than a hundred Elders above the Sixth Passage Stage, as well as about three hundred regular disciples. The disciples of the Clear Shallows King were also present.
Long Chen could not help but smile when he saw the Clear Shallows King’s disciples. He whispered, “It looks like the other disciples of the Clear Shallows King aren’t much to talk about either. She doesn’t even have one at the Eighth Passage Stage.”
“Yeah. I hear that in the other pavilions, the strongest disciples are at the Eighth Passage Stage. The strongest disciple in the Clear Shallows Pavilion is Senior Yiyi, who is at the Seventh Passage Stage, though she’s almost at the Eighth. Of course, these are not the best disciples of the Ancient Demon Domain. The best prodigies are all in the legendary palace. I hear that the Demon Emperor has a son who is at the Earthly Martial Realm. That’s almost the same as my master,” said Huangfu Qi.
“The Demon Emperor’s son again?” Long Chen remembered hearing about a person named Jiang Wushang during the Heavenly Demon Pillars round at the qualifiers. Jiang Wushang had left a palm print on the pillar when he was at the Ninth Passage Stage.
Long Chen revered true prodigies like that.
Of course, Qin Huanyu was not one of them.
Both of them stood in one corner while the direct disciples of the Clear Shallows King stood in another corner. The Clear Shallows King had about ten disciples, and other than Huangfu Qi and two young Fifth Passage Stage teenagers, the other disciples were at the Sixth and Seventh Passage Stages. There were four of them, and one was Senior Yiyi, mentioned by Huangfu Qi.
Long Chen looked at Senior Yiyi, who was a teenage girl around the same age as himself. She wore a long white dress, her skin was as white as snow, she had a gentle countenance, and her hair fell like a waterfall down to her waist. Her eyes were bright and emotive, and she had the ethereal aura of a fairy who had come to the mortal realm.
“Xiao Xi …” Long Chen was mesmerized and called her name out instinctively, but he quickly smiled bitterly to himself. He had made a mistake. This girl named Yiyi was very similar to Ling Xi in both looks and aura, but she was not Ling Xi. Instead of the cuteness that Ling Xi had, she emanated sophisticated elegance.
“Xiao Xi? Senior Yiyi’s name is Liu Yiyi. She’s my master’s daughter! Big Brother, you look mesmerized! You haven’t fallen for her, have you?” Huangfu Qi huffed, pouting hard.
“Don’t say things like that.” Long Chen quickly covered her mouth. Huangfu Qi often did not think before she spoke, and since she wasn’t speaking softly, Liu Yiyi must have been able to hear her as she was not far away. She turned to cast Long Chen a glance with a hint of enmity in her eyes.
“Senior Sister, how dare that brat look at you! I’ll knock all his teeth out!” cried Qin Huanyu, gritting his teeth as he stood in front of Liu Yiyi.
“Mhm.” Liu Yiyi nodded. In reality, she could tell that Long Chen was only looking at her without any romantic intention like Huangfu Qi had said. The main character of the day was Long Chen, so she took a longer look at him. She found that he looked calm and composed, making him much scarier than Qin Huanyu, who was gritting his teeth next to her.
Both Long Chen and Qin Huanyu were three-consecutive champions of the qualifiers, but they received very different treatment. Qin Huanyu had great potential as he was close to the Seventh Passage Stage at just sixteen. He would probably reach the Eighth Passage Stage before twenty and become a pillar of the Clear Shallows Pavillion disciples like Liu Yiyi was.
Long Chen had been abandoned from the beginning.
His story was full of ups and downs. During the few days she had spent with Huangfu Qi, she had heard the little girl talk a lot about Long Chen, so she was curious about this person.
“Huanyu.”
“How may I be of service, Senior Sister?” Qin Huanyu asked hurriedly.
“Do not kill him. It’s just a small disagreement; don’t take someone’s life over it. The heavens appreciate it when you show mercy …”
“I understand, Senior Sister. Even if I wanted to kill him, I’m afraid Master wouldn’t let me do it. His potential is now on par with mine. And what does the Clear Shallows Pavillion lack most? Talent. That is why Master won’t kill him. She got him from the Red Ghost King, and if Jiang Cheng grows strong, it will be a slap to the Red Ghost King’s face. Master loves doing things like that.” Qin Huanyu was doing his best to show off his wisdom in front of Liu Yiyi.
“That’s good. Remember to show mercy …”
At this point, the disciples and Elders who had not seen Long Chen before were all talking about him. He had first become the three-time champion, then he was abandoned by the Red Ghost King, and he had disappeared for three days and withstood Qin Huanyu’s attack. News of him spread through the whole clan, and they were all shocked by this person. Looking at his accomplishments, they felt that he was both mysterious and powerful.
The Clear Shallows King sat in her seat along with two of the four Demon Generals. Fifteen minutes were up, and Demon General Strongman gestured at Qin Huanyu, who nodded and walked into the grounds.
All eyes were focused on Long Chen.
Long Chen asked Huangfu Qi to sit still, then he left and stood fifteen meters away from Qin Huanyu.
“Big Brother! Beat him up!” Huangfu Qi was completely ignorant of whose side she was supposed to be on. Although she was the direct disciple of the Clear Shallows King, she was cheering for Long Chen …
When Huangfu Qi shouted, the duel began. Qin Huanyu did not waste time with Long Chen and immediately took out his Snow Moon Knife. He pointed it at Long Chen and said, “You escaped from my blade before. This time, it won’t be as easy.”
Long Chen took out the Demon Emperor Sword slowly and held it in front of him. His eyes were as tranquil as the surface of a lake.
There was only one thought in his mind, which was for all to witness how terrifying he was.
That was the only way he would make them take him seriously. Then his path in the Ancient Demon Domain would grow wider. Seeing how the Clear Shallows King acted before, he was now aware of the rules of the Ancient Demon Domain.
Long Chen wanted the Clear Shallows King and everyone else to watch this duel because this was his only way to appear powerful and show off his talent in front of everybody. Then he would be able to become an influential figure in the Clear Shallows Pavilion.
As for Qin Huanyu, he was just someone who had coincidentally arrived in front of his blade and would soon become his springboard.
