Revenge

Long Chen's expression turned serious. He raised his bone blade high, and suddenly, an unstoppable Aura surged upward, piercing the clouds.

Lei Qianshang and Qi Xin's expressions changed. They immediately felt their bodies tighten, realizing they had been locked onto.

It was not a lock from a battle technique, but a lock from Long Chen's own Aura. They had actually been locked onto by a Blood Condensation Realm Martial Artist, purely by his Aura.

"Whoosh."

Long Chen's bone blade slashed down fiercely at the two. This single strike sealed off the heavens and earth, leaving them nowhere to dodge and forcing them to block it head-on.

Lei Qianshang and Qi Xin both roared, exerting all their strength to defend against Long Chen's terrifying strike.

"Boom."

As the blade struck, the ground shattered, and dust billowed out. The two figures were sent flying in a sorry state, coughing up blood incessantly.

However, before the two could even land, a figure already appeared before them, and the massive bone blade slashed toward them once more.

"What?"

Lei Qianshang and Qi Xin were terrified. They hadn't expected Long Chen to launch a second strike so quickly after unleashing such a powerful first one.

The previous strike had already caused them severe internal injuries, and before they could recover, the second strike arrived.

The two didn't even have time to set up a defense before they were struck by the massive bone blade and sent flying sideways.

Fortunately, while the bone blade was hard, it was not sharp. If it had been any other blade, the two of them would have been sliced in half.

Even so, as Long Chen's bone blade swept across their bodies, the terrifying force shattered many of their bones, causing blood to spray wildly.

The two were knocked back, landing right where the Heaven and Earth Alliance members were. Seeing them fly over, everyone let out a cry of alarm.

"Bang, bang."

The two figures fell in front of the crowd. Their faces were as pale as paper, their arms were deformed, and they had multiple fractures all over their bodies.

The crowd was dumbfounded. Was this really the same ferocious Core Disciple as before? How were they as weak as rabbits in front of Long Chen?

"Hey, don't just stand there in a daze. Do you remember how they broke your bones and tendons? If you don't take revenge now, what are you waiting for?" Long Chen propped his bone blade on his shoulder and said to the stunned crowd.

The crowd was stunned for a moment, then reacted. Immediately, one person rushed out and kicked Lei Qianshang in the face.

"Damn you, you beat me so badly last time. I never thought you'd have a day like this!"

Lei Qianshang had multiple bones shattered by Long Chen's strike, and his internal organs were severely damaged. Before he even understood what was happening, he was kicked and rolled far away again.

The person who kicked Lei Qianshang in the face couldn't help but laugh out loud. The pent-up frustration in his heart was finally vented.

"You're courting death!"

Lei Qianshang shook his dizzy head, finally realizing what was going on. His eyes looked as if they were about to breathe fire.

"You still dare to glare? Screw you!"

Seeing Lei Qianshang cursing, over a dozen people immediately rushed out, punching and kicking him. Last time, Lei Qianshang had almost single-handedly broken the bones and tendons of everyone on the Heaven and Earth Alliance's side, humiliating them wantonly.

Now that they saw a chance for revenge, dozens more people rushed out, punching and kicking Lei Qianshang and Qi Xin.

The two were now heavily injured, and their Spiritual Qi had basically been exhausted by Long Chen. Now, facing these Outer Sect Disciples they could usually kill with a single slap, they had no power to fight back.

"Brothers, release all the humiliation you've suffered to your heart's content. No need to guard the flags."

"The humiliation they gave you, you must return it tenfold. Beat them to death—oh, wait, remember to leave them with one breath." Long Chen suddenly remembered that killing was not allowed here.

Following Long Chen's words, chaos erupted. Tang Waner and Ye Zhiqiu's subordinates acted like they had gone mad, punching and kicking the two.

The opposing faction was terrified by Long Chen's powerful appearance. Except for a few Core Disciples who were still fighting, the others were full of panic, not knowing whether to rush forward or run away.

The people here were venting their anger wildly, but despite their rage, they remained rational and did not strike at Lei Qianshang and Qi Xin's vital points.

Instead, they specifically targeted non-lethal areas like their arms and legs. Even Guo Ran went in and kicked them a few times before being pulled out, as he was carrying the flag tube and getting in everyone's way.

The person who had been the first to attack Long Chen and was heavily injured by a single strike watched Lei Qianshang and Qi Xin being submerged by the crowd, feeling secretly lucky.

Although Long Chen's strike was powerful, he still had a shred of fighting strength, but he pretended to be severely injured and just lay on the ground.

Although it looked ugly, it was at least much happier than Lei Qianshang and Qi Xin. After thinking about it, he simply lay on the ground and pretended to pass out.

What happened here shocked Gu Yang. He wanted to go over to support them, but how could Tang Waner and Ye Zhiqiu let that happen? They blocked him firmly.

Although defeating him was impossible, holding him back was more than enough. Seeing Long Chen display his Divine Might, the two felt greatly encouraged.

"Long Chen, you're courting death!"

Gu Yang was furious. He roared, and runes lit up all over his body, his Aura rising crazily. He was truly enraged.

Lei Qianshang and Qi Xin were his allies, effectively his right and left hands. Being humiliated like this was also a humiliation to him.

If he couldn't turn the situation around, he would lose all face. With no more scruples, he exploded with full force, let out a shout, and smashed a fist toward Tang Waner.

"Boom."

Tang Waner's wind blade was actually smashed by his terrifying punch, and the remaining force didn't diminish, heading straight for Tang Waner's face. The move was extremely ruthless.

"Ice Crystal Shield."

A massive ice crystal blocked in front of Tang Waner, meeting Gu Yang's punch, and the ice crystal immediately shattered.

However, with this obstruction, Tang Waner had retreated several steps, condensed a wind blade again, and attacked once more.

At the same time, Tang Waner and Ye Zhiqiu were shocked. They didn't expect Gu Yang to have held back. Only now was he in his peak state.

The two frantically blocked Gu Yang, determined not to let him pass. The key to victory lay in whether they could hold Gu Yang back.

Because Long Chen's side had already gained an overwhelming advantage; as long as they could hold on, victory would surely belong to them.

But at this moment, Gu Yang was like a furious lion, his attacks extremely sharp. The two's wind blades and ice blades kept shattering, but they could only grit their teeth and hold on desperately.

Long Chen glanced at the incense stick above. Perhaps everything had happened too fast; it had only burned halfway.

Seeing that Song Mingyuan and the others could hold on, he simply rushed into the opposing faction alone, heading straight for the flag carrier.

"Stop him!"

The flag carrier was shocked, hurriedly shouting for everyone to block him while retreating backward.

Unfortunately, he had overestimated his teammates. Seeing experts like Lei Qianshang and Qi Xin being taken down like rotten wood, what could stop such a monster?

As soon as the flag carrier finished shouting, the people around him all ran away, leaving him standing there all alone.

Now, the flag carrier was dumbfounded, looking at Long Chen trembling, his face green with fear.

"Senior Brother Long, don't hit me, I'll hand the flag over to you." The man wasn't stupid; with only himself left, what could he use to face Long Chen?

Furthermore, everyone had run away. Even if he handed over the flag, no one could blame him. This was called not punishing the masses.

Anyway, the Core Disciples couldn't possibly drive them all away; after all, they were all Elite Disciples, not comparable to just anyone.

Long Chen remained expressionless and grabbed toward the man.

The man was terrified, his Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering: "Senior Brother, spare me, don't kill me, don't kill me!"

When the man was grabbed by Long Chen, the first thing he thought of wasn't being beaten, but being killed, because he would never forget the scene of Long Chen killing people that day.

"Whoosh."

Amidst the man's screams, he was already airborne, thrown out by Long Chen.

"Bang."

The man fell in a dizzy heap. When he scrambled up from the ground, the first thing he saw was Guo Ran's stunned face.

The man was overjoyed and respectfully took out the small flag, handing it to Guo Ran. Guo Ran was delighted; to think there was such a good thing, someone actually obediently delivered the flag to his doorstep.

However, just as he was about to take it, he suddenly remembered what Long Chen had instructed earlier. His expression changed, and he angrily said, "What kind of attitude is this? You need to kneel on one knee and hold it above your head with both hands. Haven't you even learned basic etiquette?

You've bullied us for so long. It's considered lucky for your ancestors if I don't smash all the bones in your body.

Do you believe I'll call my brothers right now to flatten your nose and turn your skull into a flip-top?"

Looking at the ferocious crowd around him, the man fell to his knees with a thud, holding the flag tube high above his head.

"Please, Senior Brother, accept this."

Guo Ran's heart was blooming with joy. After suffering for so long, he finally got to hold his head high for once.

He reached out to take the flag and put it into his own flag tube, pretending to be indifferent as he said, "Alright, you can scram. Remember, be proactive next time, understand?"

"Understand, understand, I'll scram right away." The man hurriedly ran toward the direction of his team.

He felt extremely lucky not to have received a beating. At the same time, he developed a desire to quit. The competition here was too terrifying; he felt he should just honestly be an Outer Sect Disciple and not join any faction.

As soon as that person left, another "flying man" came to report. However, among these flying men, a few had some "backbone."

So, Guo Ran very unceremoniously called over his brothers to arrange a punching and kicking massage service for them.

Long Chen had single-handedly looted all the opposing flag carriers. A cold sneer appeared in his heart; this was the consequence of lack of trust.

Without trust, where would fighting power come from? They were just a pile of loose sand. Usually, they looked like something, but once they encountered a real threat, everyone just looked out for themselves.

This was also why Long Chen hated traitors so much. They betrayed others' trust, and when danger struck, they would get everyone killed.

"Long Chen, I'm going to kill you!"

Just as Long Chen finished looting everyone's flags, Tang Waner and Ye Zhiqiu ultimately failed to stop Gu Yang.

Gu Yang was like a furious lion, his eyes as if they were about to breathe fire. He roared and smashed a fist down toward Long Chen.
