Furious Aman

"Senior Brother Long Chen, three days ago, someone on duty over at Senior Brother Song Mingyuan's side saw three Enforcers carrying a huge object back to the branch courtyard," said that Disciple.

"Did they see clearly if it was Xiaoxue?" Long Chen asked hurriedly.

The Disciple shook his head and said: "That Disciple said the object was wrapped in layers, so he couldn't see what was inside, but judging by the shape, it was very similar in size to the Xiaoxue you described, Senior Brother Long.

Furthermore, that Disciple said that the three Enforcers looked quite disheveled at the time, and some of them had bloodstains on them; they must have just gone through a major battle."

Long Chen's heart jolted. This really could be Xiaoxue; he just didn't know who was behind it.

There were over a hundred Enforcers in the branch courtyard, managing dozens of areas. They weren't all in one place, so it looked like he would have to ask them one by one.

"Brother Long, what happened to Xiaoxue?" Aman asked.

"Xiaoxue was abducted," Long Chen said, gritting his teeth.

"Who has such guts to dare bully Xiaoxue? I, Aman, will smash him to death with one strike of my club!" Aman was furious.

Just then, Ling Hao suddenly ran in. Ling Hao was the only male Inner Sect Disciple in the Heaven and Earth Society, and his cultivation was quite good.

"Senior Brother Long, there is a Disciple outside asking to see you, saying he has an important matter to report," Ling Hao said, bowing to Long Chen.

"Let him in," Long Chen said hurriedly.

At this moment, a rather thin man walked in. Long Chen looked at the man and felt he looked a bit familiar, but he truly didn't recognize him.

"Zhao Qian greets Senior Brother Long Chen." Upon seeing Long Chen, the man immediately cupped his fists and said: "Thank you for your life-saving grace last time, Senior Brother Long Chen."

Long Chen was stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered: "You are…"

"That's right, it's me. If Brother Long hadn't acted, Zhao Qian would have already been buried in the fish's belly," Zhao Qian said with a grateful expression.

Long Chen finally remembered this person. Back in the assessment map, there was a fierce river blocking the path, and no one could cross it.

At that time, Ye Zhiqiu used the power of ice to walk directly across the river like a Fairy, reaching the opposite bank.

Someone tried to use the ice Ye Zhiqiu left behind to rush to the other side, but unexpectedly, the ice power Ye Zhiqiu left didn't last long, and he fell into the river, being crazily attacked by tiger-mouthed fish.

At that time, Long Chen threw a wooden stick, using the force of its rotation to pull him back to the shore, saving his life.

"Senior Brother Long Chen, a few days ago I just joined Qi Xin's faction, and I came here secretly this time," Zhao Qian said.

It turned out that last time Long Chen defeated Gu Yang and beat Lei Qianshang and Qi Xin to a pulp. Later, they were ganged up on by everyone and almost beaten to death.

After recovering from his injuries, Qi Xin returned to his faction and threw a huge tantrum at everyone; the Disciple carrying the flag tube was even beaten unconscious by him.

Qi Xin would either beat or scold everyone, and many people were expelled. Zhao Qian, relying on his reasonably good cultivation, was pulled into their faction.

"Senior Brother Long, I, Zhao Qian, owe you a life. Coming to you this time is equivalent to betraying them, so I will not be going back.

I came here to tell you that four nights ago, Qi Xin was dead drunk and kept saying he wanted to take revenge on you, to make you taste the feeling of heartache.

Later, I heard that during the day, he seemed to have gone to the Enforcer team. I don't know if it has anything to do with your mount," Zhao Qian said.

After all, Long Chen was the only person among all the new Disciples in the branch courtyard to possess a Third Rank mount; no one didn't know about it.

Previously, Qi Xin wanted to humiliate Long Chen but ended up being utterly defeated by Xiaoxue. Now, Qi Xin had gone to the Enforcer team, and that night he made wild claims about wanting revenge on Long Chen.

And the very next day, Xiaoxue disappeared. All of this pointed the clues towards Qi Xin.

"Senior Brother Long Chen, that's all I know. This little brother will take his leave," Zhao Qian cupped his fists and was about to leave.

"Don't go back. From now on, you are a member of the Heaven and Earth Society," Long Chen said, patting Zhao Qian on the shoulder.

Zhao Qian was greatly shocked, looking at Long Chen in disbelief: "Senior Brother Long Chen, didn't you say you hated traitors the most? I…"

"First of all, a person must distinguish right from wrong and know how to repay kindness. Knowing that a choice is wrong and continuing to make it is just stupidity. You are not a traitor. Ling Hao, go arrange things for Zhao Qian. From now on, he is our brother," Long Chen said to Ling Hao.

Ling Hao agreed, patted Zhao Qian on the shoulder, and smiled: "Brother, let's go. I'll take you to arrange your accommodation."

Zhao Qian was deeply moved. He hadn't expected Long Chen to take him in. He couldn't help but have tears in his eyes, his voice somewhat choked: "I…"

Zhao Qian still wanted to say something, but was pulled away by Ling Hao: "Alright, don't be like a sissy…"

However, just as Ling Hao finished speaking, his expression changed drastically. Sure enough, he saw Tang Waner and Qing Yu looking at him expressionlessly.

Ling Hao immediately knew he had said the wrong thing. Cold sweat came down, but he didn't know how to explain it, so he hurriedly pulled Zhao Qian away.

"Long Chen, what should we do?" Tang Waner asked.

"What else can we do? Scheming against me, Long Chen, is nothing, but scheming against the people around me—I will absolutely not let him off," Long Chen said coldly, his gaze as sharp as a sword.

"But we don't have any evidence," Tang Waner said, somewhat troubled. After all, they couldn't just go knocking on their door based on just a few words from Zhao Qian and some guesses, could they?

"Looking for evidence? That's not my style. Let's go, we're going to pay a visit to their mountain," Long Chen said, a sinister coldness hanging on his face.

For some reason, hearing Long Chen say "pay a visit to their mountain," Tang Waner and Qing Yu felt their scalps go numb.

But they both knew Long Chen's personality; once he decided on something, no one could ever change it.

"Hmph, daring to bully Xiaoxue! Brother Long, we must beat them until they are looking for their teeth all over the floor!" Aman followed closely behind Long Chen, walking outward.

Tang Waner and Qing Yu hurriedly followed, pulling Long Chen: "Should we gather some people?"

Based on her understanding of Long Chen, the rage in his heart right now was almost coming out from the top of his head. Something big was likely going to happen this time.

"Go ahead, gather the manpower and wait for me at the Xuantian Square. I'll go with Aman to pay the visit," Long Chen nodded.

After saying this, he took Aman and went straight down the mountain. Tang Waner and Qing Yu looked at each other, both seeing the worry and helplessness in the other's eyes.

Long Chen was the typical unyielding character. They had long heard that the bond between Long Chen and Xiaoxue was incredibly deep.

Now that Xiaoxue had been abducted, the Killing Intent that Long Chen couldn't hide before leaving proved that he was already on the verge of going berserk.

"Something big is going to happen."

Qing Yu sighed, but they knew they couldn't stop him, so they could only split up to notify Song Mingyuan and the others.

Since they were going to make a scene, they might as well make it a big one. As the saying goes, the law does not punish the masses. At worst, Long Chen would just be banished again; the first time was hard, but the second time would be familiar.

When Song Mingyuan and the others heard that it was actually Qi Xin behind the mischief, they were all furious, grabbing their weapons and wanting to rush over.

However, they were stopped by Tang Waner. Long Chen had asked them to gather at Xuantian Square; Long Chen must have his plans. Everyone had no choice but to suppress the anger in their hearts and go to the square to gather.

When the people from the five major factions were all gathered at Xuantian Square, all the Disciples of the branch courtyard were alarmed. They didn't know what was going on.

Why were the people from the five major factions all looking so murderous? Upon seeing this scene, those Disciples hurriedly went back to report to their respective leaders.

Even if they were slow, they knew something big was about to happen. There was no one who wasn't curious, and they all ran back to report the news, preparing to watch the commotion.

Long Chen and Aman arrived at Qi Xin's faction. As soon as they went up the mountain, they were blocked. Long Chen acted as if he didn't see them and headed straight up the mountain.

"Stop! If you don't stop, we won't be polite!" some Disciples roared, their bluster hiding their fear.

Last time, Long Chen had already scared them during the faction battle, but as faction Disciples, they had to put on a show.

Following that person's roar, more and more Disciples rushed out. When they saw Long Chen and the god-of-slaughter-like Aman behind him, sweat broke out on their foreheads.

Today, Long Chen's expression was terrifyingly gloomy. Even when Long Chen fought last time, he had a relaxed look on his face.

But today, Long Chen carried a dense Killing Intent that made people's hearts tremble. They felt as if an invisible sharp blade was held against their throats, and it seemed that with a single thought, Long Chen could kill them.

Long Chen completely ignored these Disciples and continued walking forward with Aman, while those Disciples kept retreating.

Aman also looked at them coldly. The current Aman was completely different from the one in the Imperial Capital; he was full of wildness, as fierce as an ancient primordial beast.

Coupled with his terrifying physique, he was simply like a monster. The huge mace on his back made people unable to breathe.

Aman followed behind Long Chen. The two walked forward, while seventy or eighty Disciples kept retreating, their faces full of nervousness.

Until they reached the mountaintop, where an Immortal Cave appeared. Almost all faction terrains were basically the same; this was the residence of the Core Disciple.

"Qi Xin, get the hell out here!"

Long Chen suddenly gave a sharp shout, his voice shaking the nine heavens, causing the valley to roar. Countless echoes reverberated back and forth, making people's hearts sway.

"Get the hell out here!"

"Get out here!"

"Get out here!"

"…"

The echoes came wave after wave. The mountains for hundreds of miles around were all responding to this roar filled with Killing Intent.

Suddenly, three people rushed out from the Immortal Cave. What Long Chen didn't expect was that Gu Yang, Lei Qianshang, and Qi Xin were actually all there.

Seeing Long Chen arrive, Qi Xin's expression changed, and a trace of panic appeared in his eyes, but he forced himself to stay calm and said:

"Long Chen, you have such guts to run to my territory and act wildly!"

However, Long Chen could hear the trembling in his words, which showed that he was very nervous. But within that nervousness, there was also a hint of excitement. This explained everything; all of this was Qi Xin's doing.

"F*ck your mother!"

Long Chen couldn't hold back anymore. With a loud curse, a huge bone blade appeared in his hand, and he slashed down towards Qi Xin.

Seeing Long Chen act, Gu Yang gave a loud shout, runes lit up all over his body, and his combat power instantly rose to the limit.

"Long Chen, today I will make sure you don't return!" Gu Yang punched towards Long Chen.

However, he forgot one thing: his attention was entirely focused on Long Chen, and he didn't notice Aman behind Long Chen.

"Daring to make a move on my Brother Long, go to hell!"

"Hum."

The space surged, as if it were about to shatter. A huge mace struck towards Gu Yang.
