Qin Feng and Jiang Cha must have been seen talking to him today. At that time, Qin Feng told him to be careful and come back early. He didn't expect the two of them to be targeted by Li Cang because of this. Li Cang saw that Yan Qingchen was present at that time and Yan Qingchen wasn't someone to be trifled with, so he didn't make a move. This time, he used Qin Feng and Jiang Cha as a hostage to force Long Chen to a secluded place.
Danxia Mountain wasn't far from the Evil Dragon Palace. That place was rather desolate. Although its name was elegant, there wasn't a single blade of grass growing there. Very few people would go there. It was also quite a distance away from the various palaces. Li Cang must have planned it meticulously for him to choose that place.
This was the Three Thousand Palaces. With the Punishment Hall around, Long Chen wasn't afraid of the other party messing around. He definitely had to go. However, Long Chen was currently resting and building up his strength. He wouldn't clash with Li Cang over something so senseless. Everything Li Cang was thinking about was just his own wishful thinking.
To be honest, along the way, those who couldn't deal with him would target those close to him. They were all despicable people, and this Li Cang was the same. Normally, such people wouldn't have a good ending. Long Chen felt that the Evil Dragon Palace was just starting to stabilize, and they couldn't suffer a huge blow. It wasn't appropriate to deal with the Mad Demon Palace now.
Just as he expected, Nangong Lie and Han Yunxing were paying attention to him. Under his call, Nangong Lie's voice could be heard.
"Just go. I'm watching. It's fine. If that little fellow dares to cause a ruckus, I'll slap his face. If not, I'll cut off his little brother."
With them around, Long Chen didn't have to worry about anything.
Following Long Chen's location on the map, Long Chen quickly rushed towards Danxia Mountain. At this moment, his cultivation level had already reached Sumo's level. His divine sense range was close to six li. It was far from Nangong Lie's. However, this also meant that Long Chen's Spirit Devouring Demon Eye had also reached six li.
After arriving at Danxia Mountain, Long Chen easily located Li Cang and the others. At the same time, he felt that Nangong Lie was nearby. If only Li Cang acted, it would be a tragedy for him. Long Chen didn't have to do everything himself.
This guy called Li Cang had once defeated an expert in the eighth level of the Divine Martial Realm. The secret techniques of the Mad Demon Palace had a deep foundation that made people tremble in fear. It must be pretty good.
However, what surprised Long Chen was that after he arrived, he discovered that the situation was different from what he had imagined. There were two groups of people confronting each other. On one side was Li Cang and a group of experts from the Mad Demon Palace. Most of them had just entered the seventh level of the Divine Martial Arts Realm. On the other side were Qin Feng and Jiang Cha, who had been rescued. Both of them hadn't suffered any torture, only their faces were a bit pale. And in front of them, there was another elegant young man dressed in a white brocade robe. When Long Chen got closer, he saw that this young man had an imposing appearance, as if he was a god that had descended from the heavens.
Obviously, before Long Chen arrived, this young man had already rescued Qin Feng and Jiang Cha.
Before Long Chen arrived, Li Cang and the young man in white were glaring at each other. When Long Chen arrived, both of them looked at him. Li Cang was obviously angry and unwilling, while the young man in white was full of curiosity.
"You're lucky this time. Next time, you won't be so lucky, kid."
Li Cang glared at Long Chen and hurriedly called his junior brothers to leave. A group of men in black clothes quickly disappeared into the darkness.
If there was a next time, Long Chen would be furious.
If it happened again and again, even a man made of mud would have a temper, not to mention Long Chen.
"If you have something to say, come at me. Using someone close to you to threaten me, your method can only be regarded as a coward's method," said Long Chen coldly.
Li Cang turned his head and smiled coldly. There was nothing. The group of people quickly left.
They would meet in the Hidden Dragon Rankings. It was still too early to fight now.
Only now did Long Chen have the chance to size up the young man in white. Qin Feng and Jiang Cha hurriedly went behind Long Chen and hugged each other nervously.
"It's alright, I'll bring you guys back."
Long Chen said. After that, he turned to the young man in white and said, "Thank you for saving us, brother. May I ask for brother's name?"
Some people with extremely high cultivation could maintain their youthful appearance even though they were very old. However, from the aura of the God Martial Spirit, this young man in front of them was obviously not very old. Although he was young, he had the strength to suppress Li Cang. It was easy to guess his identity. Yan Qingchen and Long Chen had mentioned a few people: Ji Liuhua, Xue Zi, and Lu Junyue. This young man in front of them could only be Lu Junyue.
"I am Lu Junyue of the Heavenly Deity Palace. I believe this must be the new Evil Dragon Palace Leader, Long Chen." Lu Junyue smiled.
"That's me."
What a coincidence. I've just heard of his name. I didn't expect to meet him here. The Emperor Star was so big. Meeting him here was purely fate.
As he spoke, Lu Junyue's gaze swept past the lovely Jiang Cha. There was a trace of unknown meaning in his gaze.
"I happened to pass by here today. I didn't expect to see Li Cang bullying someone. I gave him a warning. I didn't expect him to be someone from the Evil Dragon Palace. What fate," Lu Junyue said.
Long Chen said, "Thank you, Senior Brother Lu, for your help. I will definitely pay you a visit in the future."
Lu Junyue smiled and said, "There's no need for that. Let's just have a drink when we meet another day. I have something to do today, so I will take my leave first."
"See you." Long Chen didn't urge him to stay.
Lu Junyue left in a carefree manner, not dragging his feet.
After Lu Junyue left, Long Chen listened to Qin Feng and Jiang Cha's narration of what happened. It was pretty much as he expected. Lu Junyue's appearance was an accident.
"Fortunately, Lu Junyue saved us this time. Otherwise, we …" Jiang Cha said with lingering fear.
However, Qin Feng said, "Don't trust this Lu Junyue so easily. Rumor has it that he's not a good person."
"What rumor?" Jiang Cha acted like she didn't know anything.
"Never mind, we'll talk about it when we're free." Qin Feng was in a bad mood. Perhaps he noticed some details and wasn't particularly happy.
Long Chen was very interested in Qin Feng's words. He said, "Let's talk while we walk. Perfect."
Qin Feng shook his head and said, "Actually, it's not a big deal. He's the son of the Heavenly Deity Palace's Hall Master. He grew up with a silver spoon in his mouth. Even if he does something bad, there will be someone to clean up his mess immediately. Although it's just hearsay, there have been quite a few rumors over the years. However, they were all suppressed in the end."
"Doesn't the Punishment Hall care?" Long Chen asked.
"The Punishment Hall is useless when the first great elder is not in charge. I heard that the sixth great elder is the Heavenly Deity Palace's Hall Master's blood brother, and the first great elder is the sixth great elder's senior brother. What do you think?" Qin Feng said helplessly.
So that's how it is. Since ancient times, officials have always protected each other. The principle in the three thousand palaces was more or less the same. Only those with strength and status would make way. Those commoners could only be restrained by the rules.
Since it was none of his business, Long Chen did not think too much about it. He did not have much to do with Lu Junyue today, so he led Qin Feng and Jiang Cha back to the Evil Dragon Palace.
The next day, Long Chen began his cultivation plan in the True Martial Palace.
… …
In a dark secret room, a girl in white veil sat in the center of the room. Her hair was messy, and her face was pale. Her eyes contained a hint of confusion and fear.
"Child, have you thought it through?" Unknowingly, a voice rang in her ears.
Feng Zhilin listened, but she was unmoved.
"You have to think about it carefully. He humiliated you in broad daylight, in front of everyone. You have already become a joke. Everyone knows that you have been defiled by him. Living like this, if you don't take revenge, what's the point of living like this? As for me, I can easily help you reach the eighth level of the Divine Martial Realm. I can easily give you the strength to trample on him. I can make him kneel in front of you and beg for your forgiveness …" That hoarse voice was persuading him.
Feng Zhilin shook her head in pain and said, "No, I will never be his match. If I go against him, I will only humiliate myself. He will never kneel before me. Even if I kill him, he will not yield." The voice still did not give up, "You are really naive.
Isn't killing him easier than anything else? Isn't it refreshing? Look, he is so arrogant in the Evil Dragon Palace. He shamelessly used your reputation to rise to power. He is now a person who can call the wind and summon the rain, while you can only hide in this small secret room, not even daring to see Feng Ruoyan. Hehe, you are really useless. You were defeated by a man just like that, and you will sink into depravity forever. Are you really willing? "
Feng Zhilin's face was sad, "I am not willing, what can I do?"
"Then listen to me, I can give you the strength of the eighth layer of the Divine Martial realm. Think about it, in the three thousand palaces, you will be ranked in the top five. That will be a real meteoric rise. Who will dare to look down on you? That young man called Long Chen, you can cut him into pieces piece by piece. He is such a shameless person, he has already ruined your life. If you are still afraid of him, are you still Feng Zhilin?"
Feng Zhilin murmured, "I am really that powerful. That me … that me, I can easily defeat him. I can take revenge. I can proudly wipe away the mark on my chest. I …"
"That's right. A person like him is actually so overbearing, carving his name on your chest. How shameless must he be to do that? You must take revenge and carve your name all over his body."
Feng Zhilin was shocked. It was a crazy idea, but she was really tempted by it.
"I, I want that much strength."
The voice laughed, "Then let me have ten percent of your soul."
