It’s time to die

Long Tianxiao and the others were charging forward when suddenly, a massive wind blade flew over from the side, striking heavily in front of the Evil Path Disciples.

The wind blade was over ten zhang long, like a rapidly rotating windmill, cutting across the ground. Those Evil Path Disciples were shocked and hurriedly retreated.

However, seven or eight of them could not stop in time and were directly swallowed by that massive wind blade; the terrifying wind blade shredded their bodies.

"Whoosh."

Two figures, one large and one small, appeared before everyone. Long Tianxiao looked at the back in front of him and was stunned.

"Chen'er, is that you?"

Long Chen slowly turned his head. It had been over half a year, and his father was still as majestic as ever. Long Chen felt a warmth in his heart and smiled slightly:

"Dad, you all retreat first. I will take care of them, and then we two can have a drink and catch up."

Long Tianxiao took a deep breath. Looking at Long Chen, who had been gone for more than half a year, the immaturity on his face had long since faded, replaced by maturity and fortitude. While feeling comforted, he could not help but feel emotional; his child had finally grown up.

"All troops, retreat!"

Long Tianxiao gave the order and led the army to retreat rapidly. He knew that this battle was not meant for them.

Before, they had only been determined to fight to the death to buy a little more time, allowing the commoners to escape further.

They had hoped to use their own lives to hold out until reinforcements arrived, so even knowing they were outmatched, they still had to block them.

"I didn't expect Long Chen to return." Shifeng looked at Long Chen and Xiaoxue with an excited expression, his heart filled with shock.

The Evil Path Disciples were shocked to see Long Chen suddenly rush out. A Core Disciple coldly snorted: "It is just a Ningxue Realm rookie relying on a powerful pet. I will deal with that beast. You all continue killing. Time is tight; kill everyone in this city and then withdraw."

After the Evil Path Core Disciple finished giving instructions, he took a step forward and rushed straight towards Xiaoxue.

Xiaoxue immediately crouched slightly, about to take action. Long Chen gently patted Xiaoxue and said: "Xiaoxue, do not move. Let me handle it!"

Long Chen took a step forward and rushed towards that Core Disciple. The Evil Path Core Disciple snorted coldly when he saw Long Chen delivering himself to his doorstep.

"You are seeking death."

The blood-colored longsword in his hand stabbed straight at Long Chen's chest with lightning speed. As he attacked, Killing Intent permeated the air, and blood Qi surged, striking directly at the heart and soul.

This is the terror of Evil Path Disciples. Because they have committed so many killings, the Killing Intent has seeped into their bone marrow; whenever they make a move, it triggers a powerful Killing Intent that makes others tremble.

This is also why Righteous Path Disciples are suppressed when they encounter Evil Path Disciples; they are intimidated by the opponent's Killing Intent and cannot exert their full strength.

A cold smile appeared on Long Chen's face. He slashed his long saber towards the head of the Evil Path Core Disciple, ignoring the longsword at his chest.

A sneer hung at the corner of the Evil Path Core Disciple's mouth. Although Long Chen's strike was fast, he had attacked first and seized the initiative.

At this speed, he was absolutely confident that he could pierce Long Chen's heart with his sword and then easily dodge his saber strike.

However, what the Evil Path Core Disciple did not expect was that just as his longsword was about to pierce Long Chen's chest, a large hand covered in thunder power tightly grabbed his longsword.

As it grabbed the longsword, a powerful surge of thunder power was transmitted, instantly paralyzing his entire body and causing him to experience Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering.

This thunder power was not strong, but it was just enough to paralyze him once; in normal circumstances, it would not have amounted to much.

But now it was different; Long Chen's large saber had already slashed towards his head. By the time the feeling of paralysis faded, his head had already flown into the air.

"Puff."

Fresh blood sprayed over three zhang high. Long Chen did not wait for the head to land before rushing out.

"Kill!"

A shout, like thunder shaking the sky, accompanied his movement as he charged towards the group of stunned Evil Path Disciples.

"Puff."

Wherever the long saber pointed, no one could stop it. The long saber in Long Chen's hand was borrowed from Senior Brother Wan, and it still weighed over thirty thousand catties.

Combined with his monstrous strength at the thirteenth stage of Ningxue, any weapon that collided with the blade would immediately shatter. Wherever the long saber passed, flesh and blood flew.

That Core Disciple was their leader; with the leader killed, the others were shocked and fled in all directions.

Unfortunately, Long Chen did not give them that chance. The long saber danced; with every swing, at least one Evil Path Disciple was killed, and screams echoed incessantly.

Long Tianxiao had fought throughout his life and had killed countless people, yet he was still shocked by the sight.

Those were no ordinary people; they were all experts of the Evil Path, each one ten times stronger than him.

Yet before Long Chen, they could only obediently be hacked to death. Long Chen chased them for over two hundred zhang, and all those Disciples were killed.

He shook the long saber in his hand to cast off the bloodstains, then lazily carried the large saber as he walked up to Long Tianxiao and smiled: "Is your son's skill acceptable? I didn't lose face for you, did I?"

Seeing Long Chen covered in blood yet appearing more majestic than ever, and seeing his son so powerful, Long Tianxiao's heart was blooming with joy.

"Good, good, good! Truly worthy of being my son, Long Tianxiao! Well done!" Long Tianxiao heavily patted Long Chen's shoulder; Long Chen was even more robust now.

Long Chen stuck the long saber into the ground and gave his father a heroic hug.

Although Long Tianxiao was not Long Chen's biological father, the bond between them was no different from that of a real father and son.

"Child, you have grown up."

Long Tianxiao pressed his hands on Long Chen's shoulders, although Long Chen's physique still appeared somewhat slender compared to his.

Yet beneath Long Chen's slender appearance hid explosive power, as if a wild Dragon were Seal-ed within his body, causing one to feel fear.

"Long Chen, it is so good to see you." Shifeng also stepped forward, looking excited.

Long Chen laughed and embraced Shifeng fiercely. This separation of over half a year made Long Chen feel as if half a lifetime had passed.

Especially when seeing his loved ones, it felt like a lifetime ago; even with Long Chen's composure, he could not help but feel extremely moved.

In front of his father, he did not need to pretend to be mature; in front of his brother, he could completely relax.

"Who are you?"

While the three were talking, suddenly, over a dozen men dressed in brocade robes appeared before them.

Their Auras were extremely formidable, and the faint pressure they exuded made it difficult for others to breathe.

The dozen men in brocade robes were staring intently at Long Chen, their Qi focused entirely on him; the stance was such that if Long Chen dared to move, they would immediately attack.

"You must be from the Sect. This is my son, Long Chen. Please do not misunderstand." Long Tianxiao was startled and hurriedly explained.

"This person's origins are unknown. We suspect he is from the Evil Path, so we must take him back for interrogation. Kid, come with us. If your identity is clean, we naturally will not wrong an innocent person. Come with us to see the Sect Elder." The leader snorted coldly and prepared to step forward to seize him.

Those dozen people were none other than Senior Brother Luo and the others who had been watching the battle from afar. At first, they thought Long Tianxiao would surely die at the hands of the Evil Path Disciples, and they were just about to launch a signal to notify the Disciples of their Sect to come.

However, Long Chen's appearance gave them a shock; one person had actually killed those thirty-plus Evil Path Disciples.

But when Senior Brother Luo heard Long Chen and Long Tianxiao acknowledging each other, he was immediately enraged. He rushed over and found an excuse to seize him.

"Whoosh."

The long saber swung through the air, slashing down directly in front of one of them. That person was startled and hurriedly retreated several zhang.

"To actually attack someone! You must be an Evil Path spy. Kill him together! No mercy!" Senior Brother Luo snorted coldly, and the longsword in his hand unsheathed.

"How can you be so indiscriminate and wrongly accuse people?!" Shifeng roared, his face flushed with anger.

It had already been clearly stated that Long Chen was Long Tianxiao's son, yet they still wanted to seize him; this was simply bullying them too far.

Long Chen waved his hand and said to Long Tianxiao: "Dad, you and Shifeng retreat first. I have a few words to say to them."

He turned his head to look at Senior Brother Luo, a sneer appearing on his face. When he had first arrived, Long Chen had already sensed that someone was monitoring them.

Therefore, Long Chen was not surprised by the appearance of this group; he just did not understand their purpose.

However, when he saw Senior Brother Luo's face, Long Chen understood seven or eight tenths of the whole situation.

He was too lazy to explain and looked coldly at Senior Brother Luo: "I find that you people from the Blood Luo Sect really have no memory. If I am not mistaken, the person I slaughtered in the Imperial Capital last time was your brother, right?"

Senior Brother Luo's face darkened, and Killing Intent flickered in his eyes, but he forcibly suppressed it and said coldly: "I do not know what you are talking about. Since you are resisting, it means you have a guilty conscience, which means you are all Evil Path spies. Today, you all must die."

Hearing Senior Brother Luo's words, Long Chen could not help but laugh out of anger. He pointed at the dozen Blood Luo Sect Disciples in front of him and said disdainfully: "Your Blood Luo Sect is merely a third-rate, insignificant Sect. Just a few puny Late Stage Yijin cultivators, and you dare to be presumptuous in front of me? Are you really trying to laugh me to death?"

Although they were all Yijin Realm experts and Sect Disciples, compared to the Xuantian Branch, the Blood Luo Sect was not even fit to carry its shoes.

Their Disciples were simply not qualified to enjoy the treatment of Xuantian Branch Disciples, let alone the secret, undisclosed Essence Blood of Ten Thousand Beasts of the Xuantian Branch.

You must know that many Family factions, whose strength was hardly inferior to the Blood Luo Sect, still sent their own Genius-es to the Xuantian Branch solely for the Essence Blood of Ten Thousand Beasts.

With the Essence Blood of Ten Thousand Beasts, one could achieve flawless advancement; this was why the Disciples of the Xuantian Branch were so strong.

Within the same rank, Xuantian Branch Disciples were absolutely more than ten times stronger than Blood Luo Sect Disciples.

These idiots were actually superstitious about their own cultivation level, thinking they had Long Chen in their grasp, and were using public office for private revenge, wanting to capture his father and him in one fell swoop; they truly did not know how to live or die.

"Enough nonsense. Die!"

Senior Brother Luo was furious, and his full Aura erupted. Following Senior Brother Luo's angry shout, the other Disciples drew their longswords, and their full strength as Late Stage Yijin Realm experts erupted as they charged towards Long Chen.

It is time to die!

Long Chen's Fengfu Star slowly began to rotate, and his entire body stirred without wind. A massive Aura surged up, as if an ancient Vicious Beast were Awakening. He ruthlessly slashed his long saber down towards the crowd.
