Chapter 1416: Try again
" I think Ancestor Qi killed that person as well," Zhu Chang said. "Maybe he was just upset that he lost his hand, and that's why he was saying that he lost. For us, the slightest of backseat can be like a defeat. Don't think much about it."
'I doubt that's the case. If it's literally the work of Tian Shen, then he's simply sleeping, waiting for his return. This is troublesome. Someone who could defeat the Ancestor of the Black Tortoise Clan with such ease?'
Since most of the people were immersed in the meditation, none noticed Zhu Chang except one.
"Zhu Chang! It's you!"
"Sorry, am I supposed to remember you?" Zhu Chang asked, confused.
"You literally killed my younger brother here the last time you were here!" The man said, yelling.
His yells attracted the attention of everyone to him, making others stop meditation as well.
Everyone looked at Zhu Chang in the distance.
"Ah, you mean one of the guys that died in my attack?" Zhu Chang asked. "Or the one who provoked the attack?"
"The person who challenged you! And instead of fighting like a brave warrior, you used trickery to blow up the entire mountain! You think I won't know what you did?" The dark-haired man glared at Zhu Chang.
"Sigh, this guy..." Zhu Chang sighed. "Look, little guy. I promised my father that I wouldn't fight anyone here. I don't want the mountain to be blown to smithereens. So leave me alone."
"Nonsense! You think I'm as stupid as my brother? I always carry protection with me!" The man said, showing a talisman in his hand.
"Revival Talisman?" Zhu Chang asked, smiling.
"And that's one of the reasons I said you should bring a revival talisman," he told Long Chen. "You never know when you're going to meet crazy people like him. Let me handle him. I'll be right back."
"Can I try instead?" Long Chen asked, stopping Zhu Chang. It has been a long time since he killed someone. He was craving the feeling a bit. It was the perfect opportunity.
"Who knows, you might destroy the mountain again. Let me handle it."
"Are you sure you can?" Zhu Chang asked.
"I think I can," Long Chen smiled.
He casually brought his King's sword, pointing it towards the man.
"You coward! You are sending a kid instead? A demon at that? You're an embarrassment!" The man mocked Zhu Chang.
"And you want me to believe that you defeated my brother? I knew it! You had cheated!"
"You talk too much," Long Chen replied.
"You kid, keep your mouth closed when the elders are speaking," the man roared in rage.
"If you say so," Long Chen said.
His figure flickered. He appeared right behind the man in the next second. His sword came like lightning, slicing the head of the man.
His head flew high in the sky before dropping on the ground.
His body also followed suit.
Long Chen didn't leave. He simply glanced at the body of the man.
The talisman which was in the hand of the man started shining. A blinding light flashed. The next moment, his head was back over his body, and he was back to life.
Long Chen still didn't speak. He simply thrust his sword down.
Clank~
A golden barrier appeared around the man on the ground. The sword of Long Chen couldn't penetrate the barrier of the man.
"You made the biggest mistake of your life, you stupid demon! You shouldn't have attacked me! You made me waste my talisman! But don't worry. I'll have you make up to it."
He stood up, patting his clothes. The barrier still remained around him.
"Long Chen, it's a powerful barrier that never runs out of energy. You can only destroy it with brute force. Without it, nothing is going to happen. You should come back. Let me deal with him!" Zhu Chang reminded Long Chen.
Long Chen didn't answer.
"Why aren't you saying anything? Frozen in fear?" The dark-haired man asked. "As expected from cowardly demons?"
"I feel pity for the woman with you," he said, glancing at Xun. "Don't worry, after taking you out; I will take care of that lady personally. I will fulfill all her sexual desires. You can die in peace."
Xun simply sighed. "This idiot. I guess he truly deserves what's coming to him."
Long Chen raised his hand. The King's Sword disappeared.
"Hah, surrendering already? It's too late, kid!" The man said. Thousands of golden knives came out of the barrier, flying towards Long Chen.
Long Chen's figure flickered. He appeared on the other side of the man.
"I'll go and help him. Don't move," Zhu Chang told Xun, taking a step forward.
"No need." Xun stopped Zhu Chang. "I think he's going to call it out."
'At least it's not a Mortal Realm or Heaven. No one will understand a thing. The beasts can't sense the origin's strength. For them, it'll be an ordinary sword.'
Just as she expected, Long Chen raised his sword, calling forth one of the most powerful weapons in the world.
A sword which was mostly covered in black rust appeared in Long Chen's hand. It was accompanied by a frightening aura.
The aura was mostly mixed with Origin, which the beasts couldn't sense that accurately. For them, the sword's aura was pretty ordinary. And the look of the sword wasn't helping it either.
"Hahaha, from a better sword, you went to a worse one? Did you lose your life?" The dark-haired man started laughing. "Stupid demon!"
Seeing Long Chen's action, the others also started laughing.
Unfortunately, their laughter was soon going to disappear as Long Chen swung his Sword.
Slice~
The sword sliced through the barrier like it wasn't a protective barrier but a slice of cheese before slicing the head of the dark-haired man.
His mouth was still open as he had been laughing when his head fell off a second time, falling to the ground with his body.
'Sigh, just as I expected. Their barrier didn't get absorbed. Sigh a disappointment,' Long Chen thought, looking at the sword.
'I can't use the sword freely in heaven, but it is a better place to absorb strength. On the other hand, I can use it freely here, but it's just a godly sword here without the ability to absorb strength.'
Frowning, he landed on the ground.
Surprisingly, the light appeared once again, and the man was back to life.
"So you have two of those. Not bad. More for me," Long Chen said, thrusting his sword again. "Let's see how many you have."
