Before Lingxi could arrive, Long Chen had brutally sacrificed three levels of blood, breaking through the limits of what his body could handle, and killed the unkillable Chu Tiange.
The sight of Chu Tiange's shattered body caused Su Xiaodie and the others to collapse onto the ground. Their minds were blank, and their bodies trembled. The shock they felt was too great. Long Chen floated there in the air, his face filled with cold-bloodedness and cruelty. But when he saw the young woman flying toward him, his face suddenly became filled with warmth.
Long Chen had imagined meeting Lingxi many times in the past. Perhaps at that time, he would be in the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace. He had never imagined things would turn out like this. He was covered in blood, having just slaughtered an expert whose cultivation base and realm far surpassed his own. For that, he had paid a heavy price.
The three levels of blood sacrifice were equivalent to a minor sixth level of power. Long Chen's body couldn't handle such power. The three blood sacrifices had enormous side effects, and under the double exhaustion, Long Chen's consciousness was already starting to fade. A deathly gray energy swirled through Long Chen's body. Wherever it went, his organs, bones, and muscles would rupture and wither. At the same time, the divine energy he had painstakingly cultivated would collapse.
Long Chen's body was in complete chaos, and he was in a miserable state. For him to be able to survive in such a situation was already pretty good.
But at this time, Long Chen completely ignored his own miserable state. He completely ignored Su Xiaodie and the others. In fact, he completely ignored the world around him. The red in his eyes gradually faded away, leaving behind only a snow-white figure floating in the air.
A gale sprang up, and Lingxi's white dress fluttered in the wind. She looked like a cold and beautiful flower blooming in the air, beautiful beyond compare. And that flower was only blooming for Long Chen.
In this short moment, it felt like a long time had passed, but it also felt like a century. Long Chen looked at this girl with tears in her eyes. She was looking at him with heartache. Long Chen was already satisfied when he sensed her breath and the familiar fragrance on her body.
He slowly floated back down to the ground. At the same time, the snow-white young woman was walking gracefully toward him. If he could smell her scent up close and see her eyes filled with tears, Long Chen ignored the pain in his body. His throat felt dry, and he couldn't speak the words he had been holding back in his heart.
It was like he was mute.
It was the same for Lingxi. This great man didn't break his promise and vow. He really came to a place that he would never be able to reach. Lingxi knew how much pain Long Chen had gone through to reach this place, and it was all because of her. Such a man, how could she not be touched from the bottom of her heart? How could she not want to hysterically feel heartache for him?
Long Chen staggered a few steps and almost lost his balance. Blood was still flowing from his cracked skin. Even though his body was in an incomparably miserable state, Long Chen was still crying tears of joy at this moment. He had finally achieved his goal today. The tears in his eyes were tears of happiness and achievement. He knew that Lingxi must be in the same state as him, choking with sobs and unable to say a single word.
Su Xiaodie and the others, as well as Ye Xuan and the others, were staring blankly at them, trying to guess their relationship.
What exactly was the relationship between these two people?
The answer was soon revealed. When Long Chen's body staggered, Lingxi gently walked over and hugged him. A pair of white hands wrapped around Long Chen's strong waist that was covered in blood. At the same time, her chest was tightly pressed against Long Chen's body. A pair of big watery eyes looked up at Long Chen's chest. She looked at Long Chen lovingly without saying a word.
This kind of quiet gazing at each other was the best communication for them. They didn't need to say a thousand words. Just by looking at each other, they knew what each other was thinking.
"I am dirty."
Long Chen reached out and grabbed Ling Xi's arm, wanting to pull her away. His body was covered in blood, and Ling Xi's dress was pure white, so in this short period of time, her arms and a large area in front of her chest had already been dyed the color of blood. It looked like a beautiful blood-colored flower that had bloomed on her dress.
"It is not dirty. It looks good."
As long as she was in front of Long Chen, Lingxi would show the nature of a child. She hugged Long Chen tightly and crossed her hands behind Long Chen's back. She didn't want to let go, as if she was afraid that if she let go, Long Chen would disappear. She smiled at Long Chen, then turned her face and put her ear on Long Chen's chest. She quietly and happily put her face on Long Chen's chest.
"Chen, hug me. Hug me."
In Long Chen's arms, Lingxi let out a murmur. She used all her strength to hug Long Chen.
Long Chen stretched out his bloody arms and hugged Lingxi's soft waist. He held her tightly in his arms. Feeling that Long Chen's strong arms had already wrapped around her, and that it was impossible for him to leave, Lingxi seemed to be a little relieved. She put her ear on Long Chen's chest and said softly, "You are real. I can hear your heartbeat. This is your heartbeat …"
Because they were hugging too tightly, Ling Xi's white dress had almost turned the color of blood. The severe injuries made Long Chen dizzy, but he still stubbornly persevered, trying his best to stabilize his body as he displayed his strongest side.
Lingxi would be satisfied with his progress. Just a moment ago, she saw with her own eyes that Long Chen killed a young warrior at the sixth level of the Divine Martial Arts Realm from Emperor Dong's Palace who was holding the Haotian Sword. In the whole Dragon Ritual Continent, who could achieve this from the early stage of the Reaching Heaven State in seven years?
Only Long Chen could do it.
In Lingxi's mind, there would never be anything that Long Chen couldn't do.
"Lingxi …" Long Chen stretched out a bloody palm. This was probably the most heroic meeting. Long Chen didn't know what Lingxi had paid for this meeting, but Long Chen had almost paid with his life. If he hadn't used the Triple Blood Sacrifice at the end, Lingxi would have seen a corpse, or she wouldn't have seen a corpse at all.
Long Chen stretched out his hand and gently pinched Lingxi's delicate and fair face. She was still so delicious and beautiful that he couldn't help but want to take a bite. This feeling was so real.
"I said before that I would definitely appear in front of you within ten years. I didn't break my promise. I really came …"
"I know, I know …" Lingxi was like a puppy, rubbing herself against Long Chen's chest. This was the most peaceful place she felt. In the Myriad Kingdoms Domain, only Long Chen could give her such a sense of security.
Lingxi didn't expect that Long Chen could reach this step. Starting from Baiyang Village, Lingxi walked all the way, searching for Long Chen's footsteps bit by bit. Lingxi asked thousands of people, and from their mouths, she learned of almost every step that Long Chen had taken.
From Bi Yang Imperial City's Murong Yu, to the Wushu Sage Dynasty's Dragons siblings and Liu Yiyi, and then to Devil God Dynasty's Bai Suxue, these people all showed Lingxi a man who risked his life for her. Being able to have such a man who risked his life for her in this life, Lingxi's traces had long been firmly engraved in her heart. Even if she was gone, Long Chen was still the man she loved the most.
From the Heaven Reaching Realm to the Earth Martial Arts Realm, from the Earth Martial Arts Realm to the Sky Martial Arts Realm, and then to the current God Martial Arts Realm, he completed it in just a few years. Long Chen's achievements exceeded Lingxi's expectations. But when she saw this man, she felt that it wasn't strange at all for him to have such achievements. This was the Chen Chen that she dreamed of.
He always had a spirit that others couldn't compare to. That was his belief that would never stop.
Being quietly held in Long Chen's arms like this, this was the happiest time in Lingxi's life.
Her body temperature, her body softness, and the faint fragrance that assailed his nostrils made Long Chen feel that he was in an ocean of gentleness, which made him forget the pain in his body and everything else. In the whole world, there was only this softness that he treasured the most.
When they didn't say much, just silently feeling each other's body temperature and breath, Su Xiaodie and the others gradually recovered from their previous sluggishness. This girl had the strength that even Chu Tiange respected, so the Lord of Nether God and the others were shocked. They knew that a huge change had happened, and it was better for small figures like them not to interfere. But for Su Xiaodie, the Mr. Right she had envisioned was only left with one arm, and the murderer was hugging a woman that Su Xiaodie hated …
Su Xiaodie's heart was burning with anger.
She couldn't see through Lingxi's strength, and she didn't know what kind of abnormal skill Long Chen had used to kill Chu Tiange and break the Haotian Sword. If this news spread out, it would definitely shock the entire Eastern Royal Domain. Chu Tiange, a super expert on the Talent List of Emperor Dong's Palace, was killed by a warrior at the second level of the God Martial Arts Realm …
Su Xiaodie only knew that Long Chen was now an arrow at the end of its flight. If she didn't kill him now, she wouldn't have another chance in the future. Chu Tiange was the man she had admired since she was a child and wanted to marry. In Emperor Dong's Palace, Chu Tiange was a popular figure. He was tall, handsome, knowledgeable, and most importantly, he had a high cultivation. But such a figure was killed by Long Chen.
