"What?!"
Long Chen was dumbfounded. His breathing immediately sped up and became coarse. His eyes gradually became bloodshot.
"Chen 'er, don't get too agitated. Let me explain it to you!"
Although Yang Yuntian was also very anxious when he saw Long Chen's appearance, he knew that he needed to calm Long Chen down.
Long Chen and Yang Lingqing's relationship was like that of real siblings. Now that something had happened to Yang Lingqing, how was Long Chen supposed to calm down?
He was just short of killing his way to the front door.
Suppressing the murderous intent in his heart, as well as the deep self-blame, Long Chen knew that what he needed the most right now was to remain calm.
However, as soon as he thought of the scenes between himself and Yang Lingqing, as well as the group of bastards from the Scarlet Blood Sacred Sect, Long Chen clenched his fists until they made cracking sounds.
"Is it because of the Blood Sacrifice Ceremony …?"
A bloody light surged in Long Chen's eyes.
Seeing that Long Chen's mood had calmed down, Yang Yuntian was relieved. Deep sorrow appeared on his face as he said, "It's all my fault as a useless father. I couldn't properly protect my daughter …"
Yang Yuntian had already lost a son. Now that he thought about how he might lose his daughter as well, his mind was already blank.
"Second Uncle, don't blame yourself. What exactly happened? Tell me in detail!"
Long Chen bit his lower lip as he said this.
"Chen 'er, did you participate in killing the other two Great Protectors of the Scarlet Blood Sacred Sect?"
Yang Yuntian raised his head and asked.
Long Chen was startled. Thinking of Protector Qin and Protector Shi, he was puzzled and asked, "How do you know about this?"
Yang Yuntian shook his head helplessly and said, "This is what that thief said. The Scarlet Blood Sect killed two protectors in Yan Luo Town. After investigating, they found out that the Lingwu family was the culprit. Among the three, you were one of them, so he investigated your background and found out that you were from the Yang family of White Poplar Town. Then, in order to take revenge, one of the Scarlet Blood Sect's protectors came to White Poplar Town. After arriving at White Poplar Town, he found out that Blood Yuanzi was also killed by you!
So, he made a move against our Yang Family! "
Long Chen didn't expect that the matter of killing Blood Yuanzi would be exposed because of him. Among the eight protectors of the Crimson Blood Holy Church, three of them had died because of Long Chen. It was no wonder that the other party would attack them.
When he heard that, Long Chen's self-blame grew even heavier. He wished he could immediately slaughter his way to the Scarlet Blood Sacred Sect, but he knew he couldn't do that.
"Why did he kidnap Ling Qing?"
Yang Yuntian said bitterly, "My dad had broken through to the Divine Core realm with the help of the Evoking Divine Fruit, and he was barely able to fight against that thief. That's why he couldn't take advantage of him. But, during the fight, Ling Qing was accidentally injured. He saw that Ling Qing's blood had a faint green color, so he said that Ling Qing had a Profound Yin Body that's rarely seen in a hundred years. That's why he took her away. Your grandfather had just broken through to the Divine Core realm, so he couldn't stop him …"
"Profound Yin Body?!"
Hearing these words, Gan Lin, who was standing at the side, trembled.
Long Chen hastily asked, "Now, that guy has returned to the Scarlet Blood Sect, right?"
Yang Yuntian nodded his head. With a pale face, he said, "I heard from that guy that Ling Qing has a Profound Yin Body, and it's very important to their Blood Sacrifice Ceremony. My dad has been moving around the Southern Spirit Region for the past few days, and he's found out that the Blood Sacrifice Ceremony will be held in one day!"
For Long Chen, this news was like a bolt from the blue!
"Two days?
Blood Sacrifice Ceremony … "
Anger and hatred surged crazily in Long Chen's heart. An ice-cold light appeared in his eyes as he clenched his fists tightly. He gnashed his teeth and said, "If anything happens to Ling Qing, I will bury all of you from the Scarlet Blood Holy Church with her!"
Seeing the violent aura on Long Chen's body, Yang Yuntian cried out in alarm. He hurriedly said, "Chen 'er, I didn't come here to find you because I want you to be reckless and charge into the Scarlet Blood Sect to court death. You're now a member of the Lingwu family, so I came here to ask if you have the power to mobilize the Lingwu family."
The leader of the Scarlet Blood Sect was the grandson of Emperor Yuan. Long Chen wasn't a member of the Lingwu family. Who would take such a risk to help him?
At least Liu Lan wouldn't, and Liu Yuan wouldn't either!
"Second Uncle, don't say anymore. Ask Grandpa to come here and stay. I'll go to the Scarlet Blood Sect now. I promise you that I'll rescue Ling Qing in one day!"
Long Chen's voice was cold, but it was filled with determination.
"Profound Yin Body … The Scarlet Blood Sect's Blood Sacrifice Ceremony requires the blood of a young girl. If Ling Qing has a Profound Yin Body, her blood will definitely be drained clean …"
If such a thing happened, Long Chen would definitely go crazy!
Even at that moment, he was unable to control his feelings of anger.
Seeing Long Chen like this, Yang Yuntian knew that he had always had a violent temper and was impulsive. He hurriedly said, "Chen 'er, I didn't come here for you to risk your life!
You have a bright future ahead of you, and now that you've joined the Lingwu family, it's time for you to develop and soar. I don't want to harm you because of Ling Qing. The Scarlet Blood Sect is hell, is that a place where a young man like you can go? "
In Yang Yuntian's mind, Long Chen hadn't even reached the Mortal Core realm, and the Scarlet Blood Sect was a place where Earth Core warriors could be found.
"Long Chen, listen to me!
Go and ask the Lingwu family for help, you might have a chance! "
Just as Yang Yuntian was speaking, Liu Lan walked in with a cold expression. Gan Lin quickly bowed and said, "Lady Deacon!"
Hearing the words Lady Deacon, Yang Yuntian was shocked.
He knew that this Lady Deacon was the owner of this huge Green Willow Residence. In terms of cultivation, she was definitely an Earth Core warrior. He quickly suppressed his excitement and said respectfully to Liu Lan, "Yang Yuntian greets Lady Deacon!"
Liu Lan nodded at him, then she looked at Long Chen. Right at this moment, Long Chen was looking at Liu Lan with a fierce look.
Seeing the disrespect in Long Chen's eyes, Yang Yuntian was shocked. He quickly wanted to remind Long Chen, but out of his expectation, Long Chen said with a cold voice, "Great Deacon Liu, didn't you say that you'll keep an eye on the Scarlet Blood Sect for me? Once there's any movement, you'll inform me?"
Even Yang Yuntian, an outsider, could hear the strong dissatisfaction in Long Chen's words. He quickly pulled Long Chen and said to Liu Lan with an apologetic expression, "Lady Deacon, my nephew is young and doesn't know any better. I hope Lady Deacon won't lower yourself to his level!"
Liu Lan's expression was calm. She didn't even look at Yang Yuntian, she was looking at Long Chen. Liu Lan was also surprised that such a thing happened.
At this moment, she indifferently said, "Only one of the protectors of the Scarlet Blood Sect went to White Poplar Town. These past few days, I was busy with the matters of the Heaven Realm, so I didn't pay attention to it. That's normal. Moreover, Long Chen, didn't I tell you to give up on dealing with the Scarlet Blood Sect?
Could it be that you don't know that this will bring you a fatal disaster?
If you don't handle this properly, your entire Yang family will die without a burial ground! "
Long Chen wasn't scared by her. He let out a cold laugh and said, "Alright, I don't want to talk about responsibility with you anymore. I just want to ask you one thing. Now that my little sister has been captured by them, I'm going to kill my way to the Scarlet Blood Sect. Are you going to help me or not?"
Long Chen's words didn't have a single trace of respect.
According to Yang Yuntian's understanding, when Long Chen said something like this, he should be killed by Deacon Liu immediately. But, he didn't expect that Deacon Liu seemed to think highly of Long Chen.
Yang Yuntian stared blankly at the two of them confronting each other. His heart was gradually filled with shock. Right at this moment, he suddenly wanted to know one thing. What was Long Chen's current strength?
Could it be that in just a little over a month, he had broken through to the Mortal Core realm?
When he remembered that Long Chen also had the Epiphany Fruit, Yang Yuntian felt that this matter was highly possible.
Right at this moment, Liu Lan hesitated for a moment, then she shook her head and said, "You're making the Azure Sun Clan take such a huge risk for your personal affairs. Not only will I not agree to this, even my father won't agree to this!
Besides, Long Chen, the Scarlet Blood Sect is not a power you can fight against, I won't allow you to go! "
"What right do you have to not allow me to go?!"
When Long Chen heard what she said, his heart for the Lingwu family had already died by more than half.
When he heard that Liu Lan still wanted to restrict him, he couldn't help but laugh coldly.
"You!"
Being challenged by Long Chen like this, no matter how firm her heart was, she couldn't help but become angry. Her curvaceous body was slightly trembling as she stared at Long Chen with her beautiful eyes filled with murderous intent.
Yang Yuntian cursed silently. Long Chen had angered Chief Deacon Liu. Perhaps before they could go to the Scarlet Blood Sect and save Yang Lingqing, Long Chen would die here.
He quickly signaled to Long Chen, then said to Chief Deacon Liu in a flattering manner, "Master Deacon, Chen 'er doesn't know any better, he doesn't think before he speaks. Please don't argue with him, we'll deal with the Scarlet Blood Sect ourselves. Can we leave now?"
Yang Yuntian's words made Long Chen very unhappy. He pulled Yang Yuntian behind him and said, "You don't have to flatter her, what right does she have to enjoy this?"
Looking at Chief Deacon Liu coldly and ignoring Yang Yuntian's shocked expression, Long Chen said in a gloomy voice, "My sister is now in someone else's hands, and you want me to stay here? Then let me ask you, if I, Long Chen, am such a person, then what is the difference between me and an animal?
And if you are such a person, then what is the difference between you and an animal?! "
"Long Chen, don't go too far!"
Liu Lan was so angry that her face turned red at the mention of the word 'animal'. However, Long Chen's words were very reasonable, so she had no reason to refute them.
"How am I going too far?"
Long Chen smiled coldly. He gestured to Yang Yuntian and said, "If I will be expelled by the Lingwu family for saving my sister, then I won't stay in the Lingwu family any longer. Second Uncle, let's go!"
After saying that, he walked around Liu Lan under her furious gaze and headed for the door.
"Long Chen, if you die, don't blame me for not warning you today!"
"My life or death has nothing to do with you, Great Beauty Liu!"
Hearing this, Yang Yuntian's mind was in chaos ….
"To be able to talk to a deacon like this, Chen 'er, what level has he reached …."
