Dragon Blooded War God Chapter 684: Evil and Scheming

Chapter 684: Evil and Scheming

Long Chen had made a grand entrance! Feng Xuan had arrived in Martial Overlord City in this manner the last time she was here. That visit ended with Zhao Wuji’s death.
What would this end up like?
Those living in the inner city were mostly the Martial Alliance’s loyal protectors and saw themselves as members of the Martial Alliance. It was different in the outer city because they were the rich and influential of Martial Overlord City. They were willing to side with whoever was ruling the Divine Martial Empire. They did not bear hatred towards Long Chen and were instead looking forward to Long Chen and Zhao Danchen’s battle to see what would happen!
Long Chen looked down at the bustling city coldly.
When Feng Xuan came, the Martial Kings dared to surround her. The moment Long Chen arrived, however, they instantly recognized him, so they did not dare move. Everyone looked up at the powerful young man in the sky woodenly, waiting for the Martial Overlord to deal with him!
That was why Long Chen arrived right outside Martial Overlord Palace unobstructed!
This was the same place he had found himself in when he emerged from the Nine Spirit Purgatory. This time, the statuses of Long Chen and Zhao Danchen were no longer important.
Long Chen was not one to stall. His eyes were fixed on Martial Overlord Palace—he knew Zhao Danchen was there!
Everyone below discussed with each other.“The Long Chen just flew in clearly shows he doesn’t respect the Martial Overlord.”
“Of course not! He’s literally coming to challenge the Martial Overlord!”
“I hear Long Chen is very powerful, but I’m not convinced. Not only does the Martial Overlord have strong cultivation, he also has the Ancient Demon Corpse and Feng Xuan. Wouldn’t the Martial Overlord easily beat Long Chen if they fight two-against-one?”
“That’s true. I hear that woman is at the Fifth Earthly Martial Stage, so she is one level higher than the Martial Overlord. I don’t see anything special about this Long Chen kid. Those rumors sounded too exaggerated. It’s true he once defeated the Martial Overlord, but now the Martial Overlord is much, much more powerful than he previously was!”
These conversations clearly came from the inner city.
They were not important.
What mattered was that Long Yue and the rest were waiting for good news from him. He was carrying the fate of many on his shoulders, so there was only one outcome for him today. He had to win!
“Zhao Danchen, get the hell out here,” Long Chen commanded calmly, his voice traveling across the whole city.
Whoosh! Zhao Danchen appeared on the very top of Martial Overlord Palace.
They met again in this manner.
Long Chen’s gaze darkened.
Liu Yiyi was with Zhao Danchen; he was gripping her so tightly that she could not move. She looked up at Long Chen apologetically with tears in her eyes and said hurriedly, “Long Chen, I’m sorry …”
She had been captured by Zhao Danchen when she was out clearing her mind.
Long Chen pursed his lips and did not speak.
Liu Yiyi’s presence had messed up his plan. He knew he had to stay calm, or neither he nor Liu Yiyi would come out of this alive.
“You really know how to pick the best timing, don’t you? If you had arrived just a little bit later, your woman would have become mine. Of course, she still won’t escape her fate.” Zhao Danchen looked at Long Chen coldly. His calm demeanor ignited rage within Zhao Danchen.
He recalled the things that Liu Yiyi said about how he had no right to be compared to Long Chen. Zhao Danchen was an arrogant person, so those words had been a huge blow to him. This was the time for him to prove himself.
Long Chen saw that although Liu Yiyi’s clothes were a little disheveled, she had not been sullied, so he sighed in relief. Although this was going to be a difficult problem to solve, it did not shake his determination. He had come here with only one aim, which was to kill Zhao Danchen!
“Let her go and we’ll fight to the death. What do you think?” Although Long Chen’s tone was mild, his voice spread across Martial Overlord City.
Everyone watched.
Liu Yiyi’s appearance made the duel more interesting. They wondered if Zhao Danchen would let the advantageous hostage go in order to fight Long Chen in a clean and righteous manner.
They looked at Zhao Danchen.
“Let her go?” Zhao Danchen laughed loudly. His pride was part of what made him evil. He had captured Liu Yiyi with great difficulty. Not only would he not let her go, but he would also use her to defeat Long Chen! Zhao Danchen had always been an evil, scheming scumbag!
The crowd understood his laughter.
He would never let this opportunity go.
“Long Chen …” Liu Yiyi was on the brink of a breakdown. She sensed that she was going to be a burden to Long Chen in this battle and may even be the cause of his defeat! If that was the case, she might as well die.
She was filled with guilt, and tears flowed down her face.
Long Chen was worried that she would do something stupid, so he said to her, “Don’t do anything stupid. Just watch. I will get you back safely from him. Trust me!”
His words stabilized Liu Yiyi’s mind.
Liu Yiyi had no choice but to believe him after seeing the determination in his eyes. She had always been an obedient child, especially now that Long Chen was giving her instruction. She initially wanted to kill herself, but Long Chen reignited her confidence and she chose to believe in him.
In her heart, this extraordinary young man was a peerless existence.
Some people made others believe that they could do it all, like they could solve every impossible problem with ease. Long Chen was one of them.
Long Chen’s statement also showed his contempt towards Zhao Danchen.
Liu Yiyi was still in Zhao Danchen’s hands, but Long Chen conversed with her as if no one was around. Zhao Danchen’s face darkened. He gripped Liu Yiyi tightly so she could not move at all.
“Come outside the city gates if you dare!” Long Chen took one glance at Zhao Danchen, then flew outside Martial Overlord City’ gates. Previously, Feng Xuan and Zhao Wuji had fought here.
Zhao Danchen chuckled coldly and brought Liu Yiyi over. A small, black flag, the Ancient Demon Flag, appeared in his other hand. Under Zhao Danchen’s control, the Ancient Demon Corpse burst out of the ground outside Martial Overlord City in front of Long Chen. Long Chen was greeted with the stench of blood and rot!
This would be Long Chen’s first time directly battling this cold war-machine!
He felt a huge pressure.
Zhao Danchen also arrived, but he did not land. He remained high up in the air, trapping Liu Yiyi and controlling the Ancient Demon Flag. When he saw the standoff between Long Chen and the Ancient Demon Corpse, he laughed and said, “Alright, since you’re already prepared, let’s begin the game!”
A dense crowd appeared on top of the wall!
Another ultimate battle was starting outside Martial Overlord City!
Game? Long Chen furrowed his brows. He had a feeling that the scumbag Zhao Danchen was going to pull another shameless move.
Zhao Danchen squeezed Liu Yiyi’s arm slightly, causing her to turn pale from the pain. Cold sweat beaded on her forehead, but in order not to worry Long Chen, she clenched her teeth and did not let herself cry from the pain.
Zhao Danchen laughed loudly. “Do you see this? These are the rules of my game! My Ancient Demon Corpse shall attack you, and every time you dodge or attack it, I will break one of her arms or legs. You have four chances in total, because on the fifth time, I will break her neck. Aiya, why are you looking at me that way? Are you thinking that I’m mistreating a woman?”
After Zhao Danchen spoke, even the people of Martial Overlord City talked among themselves. In general, the people in the outer city were not truly willing to be ruled by Zhao Danchen. They were merely being suppressed. How many people would be willing to recognize him as their leader after he had killed his own master?
What Zhao Danchen had said made his character seem even worse to them.
They complained about Zhao Danchen, feeling like he was not fit to be the Martial Overlord. Zhao Danchen could hear these casual comments, which made his expression turn sour!
After he finished, Long Chen merely looked at him coldly. That cold expression suddenly made Zhao Danchen feel shameful, which ignited the flames of rage within him!
I am literally suppressing him right now, and he is about to be killed by me. Why does he still dare to look at me like that? Zhao Danchen roared in his heart!
He waved the Ancient Demon Flag, and the Ancient Demon Corpse’s eyes lit up red.
“Long Chen, remember! You only have four chances to retaliate!” Zhao Danchen was so angry that he started laughing like a madman. Liu Yiyi was like a harmless kitten in his hands, and her tears were flowing. She really wanted to die, but why had Long Chen said that he had a way?
Long Chen said, “Zhao Danchen, no true master would fear your tricks. You may have won against me in terms of schemes, but you lose when it comes to true strength. What’s there to be smug about?”
“Nonsense! If I’m able to kill you, I am stronger than you!” roared Zhao Danchen in rage. The crowd watched in shock as the Ancient Demon Corpse shot at Long Chen with a whoosh like a black shadow, instantly appearing in front of him!
The Ancient Demon Corpse threw a powerful punch, which led to a loud crackling in the air. Its fist was locked on Long Chen, and it brought with it the force of a mountain as it flew towards his chest!
“Long Chen, remember! This will cost an arm!” Zhao Danchen’s laughter echoed in Long Chen’s ears.
Long Chen squinted and gave up on attacking it.
