In the Celestial Street, there were many shops selling combat skills, elixirs, runes, secret techniques, weapons, and so on. They had everything one could wish for.
The main reason was that Yan Qingchen knew that the Hidden Dragon Rank Battle was about to start and he was not in the mood to train. Therefore, he decided to bring Long Chen along. This guy was very straightforward and kind. By now, Long Chen and Yan Qingchen had already formed a close friendship.
The two of them were now the most popular figures in the Three Thousand Palaces. Anyone from the Three Thousand Palaces would know them.
Walking on the streets of Heaven's Street, there were quite a number of beautiful disciples who were stealing glances at them. Yan Qingchen's wild muscles had them mesmerized. However, Long Chen's disposition had their hearts thumping wildly.
At this moment, the crowd in front of them parted. Long Chen glanced around and stopped. After a while, a man and a woman walked into Long Chen's sight. The woman was holding the man's arm. She was no longer cold. She had a sweet smile on her face. It was Feng Zhilin.
Seeing her like this, Long Chen was almost blinded.
As for the other man, although he had only met Long Chen once, he was an old acquaintance. Long Chen counted on his fingers. It had been a hundred days since Lu Junyue was placed in the Extreme Purple Sky Fire Formation. That was why he appeared in front of Long Chen.
Needless to say, Long Chen could feel the hostility in Lu Junyue's eyes.
What kind of place was the Extreme Violet Heavenly Fire Array? That was practically the most severe punishment the Punishment Hall had. Staying in that inhumane place for a hundred days, suffering all sorts of hardships and living such a long time without many people around, it would be strange if Lu Junyue didn't want to make Long Chen suffer the most.
These two people who hated Long Chen the most were actually together. Long Chen was speechless. Feng Zhilin seemed to be sincere. Did she really like Lu Junyue? Long Chen didn't think so. She was probably treating Lu Junyue like Li Cang again.
If that was the case, Long Chen would look down on this woman even more. A while ago, he had planned to help her. Now that he saw her with Lu Junyue, Long Chen cursed in his heart, [If I want to help you, there must be something wrong with my brain.]
When the two sides met on Sky Street, there was a huge spark. Everyone made way for them.
Most importantly, Lu Junyue's hatred for Long Chen was simply monstrous. As soon as he saw Long Chen, the horrifying experiences of the hundred days flashed in his mind. Lu Junyue was about to go crazy. He wished he could immediately tear this guy into pieces. No, even if he tore him into pieces, it wouldn't be enough to erase the hatred in his heart. During those hundred days, Lu Junyue had cried countless times. He had never suffered such pain since he was young. Every time he broke down, he swore that when he came out, he would definitely give Long Chen the most unbearable pain in the world.
This was the first day he came out, and he coincidentally met them on Sky Street.
At that moment, Lu Junyue's Divine Essence circulated ten times faster. If it wasn't for Feng Zhilin holding him, he would have already made a move.
Long Chen was stunned at first. He knew how much the two hated him. He hadn't passed the Minor Three Tribulations, so it wasn't a good time to make a move. He was much calmer than the two. At this moment, he reacted instantly and said with a smile, "What a coincidence, the two of you are also wandering around Sky Street. It's rare to see each other. Why don't we go to the Cuiwei Pavilion next door? Don't worry, I, Long Chen, will treat you today. I guarantee you two will have a good meal."
Long Chen's words were like old friends meeting.
However, Lu Junyue roared in his heart, [Damn it, I want to kill you. Why are you still drinking?]
Feng Zhilin and Lu Junyue didn't say anything. They stared at Long Chen with cold eyes. This was the result of them enduring. Otherwise, everyone would see them going crazy.
"It's not a good time to make a move now. We will endure until the day we can. He has two people from the Martial God Palace supporting him. Big Brother Lu, just endure this once." Feng Zhilin said softly to Lu Junyue.
On account of Feng Zhilin, Lu Junyue finally suppressed the hatred in his heart. A hundred days of the Extreme Purple Heavenly Fire Formation. He wished he could send Long Chen in as well and let him have a good time.
Feng Zhilin, who was at the side, was Lu Junyue's only sense of accomplishment. In the past, he didn't like Feng Zhilin. She wasn't his type. However, Feng Zhilin had some rumors with Long Chen. He was delighted to get such a woman. The only flaw was that Feng Zhilin was too pure. She only allowed him to hug her. As for kissing her, forget about it.
"Little Brother Long Chen, I think we should forget about it. These two might not appreciate it. Let's go to the Cuiwei Pavilion first." Yan Qingchen chuckled.
"How is that possible? You two won't even give me face. Oh, I understand. It seems like you two are in love. We shall not disturb you anymore. Goodbye."
Long Chen and Yan Qingchen walked around Lu Junyue and Feng Zhilin. When they were halfway, Long Chen felt unhappy. He whispered in Lu Junyue's ear, "Oh, it's been too long. I have forgotten how it feels to be with this woman in bed. If you succeed, don't forget to describe it to me …"
At that moment, Lu Junyue's expression was incomparably ugly. A green hat was placed on her head. As for Feng Zhilin, she was almost driven mad by Long Chen's nonsense. By the time she reacted, Long Chen had already walked far away.
"Stop!"
Feng Zhilin shouted angrily. She wanted to endure it, but she really couldn't. She clearly had nothing going on with Long Chen. However, she was framed by him every time. She couldn't possibly say in front of everyone, "Everyone, don't listen to his nonsense. I am a virgin. If you don't believe me, I will take off my pants and show you."
Not to mention Feng Zhilin, even Lu Junyue couldn't do it.
"What? You two want to go to Cuiwei House again?"
Long Chen and Yan Qingchen turned their heads. Yan Qingchen had inherited Nangong Lie's temperament. He wasn't afraid of fighting. He was already rubbing his palms.
When the gunpowder was about to explode, someone in the crowd applauded. Everyone looked and saw that it was Ji Liuyun from Xuanming Palace. Long Chen turned his head. It was a man with a seductive appearance. If it wasn't for his Adam's apple, he would have thought it was a woman. His seductiveness made people fall in love with him. To be honest, he was even more seductive than Feng Zhilin.
Long Chen had heard of this man. He was also in the eighth level of the Divine Martial Realm.
Not far from them, Xue Zi of the Snow Lotus Palace was here as well. Xue Zi wore a purple veil over her face. Her figure was graceful and her face couldn't be seen clearly. However, she was quiet and elegant. She wasn't as cold and arrogant as Feng Zhilin. However, deep in her bones, there was an unresolvable distance between her and the others.
In a short time, all the young experts from the three thousand palaces had arrived.
The one who applauded was Ji Liuhua. She looked at the crowd charmingly and said, "All of you are so powerful, but this Heavenly Street isn't a place to fight. If you fight here, you will be punished. Why don't we make a bet? What does everyone think?"
Long Chen narrowed his eyes and said, "Tell me, how should we bet?"
Ji Liuyun had an idea and said: "The Imperial Star is round, with the Imperial Star as the center, on the other side of the Celestial Street is Violet Bamboo Mountain. That place produces a type of 'Violet Snow Bamboo'. Let's compete in speed. Whoever gets the Violet Snow Bamboo and returns here first will be the victor. What does everyone think?"
It was a good idea, but the problem was how to determine the punishment.
"As for the bet, we have a total of … Hmm, six participants. Let's do it this way. The first place can slap the fourth, fifth, and sixth place. The second place can choose two people from the fourth, fifth, and sixth place and slap them. The third place can choose one person from the fourth, fifth, and sixth place and slap them. What do you guys think? Isn't it very exciting? If you're unlucky enough to be ranked fourth, fifth, or sixth, I'm afraid your little face will be swollen …"
Ji Liuyun giggled.
He was a man, but he was so seductive. Long Chen wanted to slap him to death. If he won first place, he would slap him first.
As for the competition, Long Chen didn't really care. He knew very well that in terms of speed, no one could compare to him, who had the Golden Thunder Netherdragon.
Ji Liuyun and the others didn't understand Long Chen's situation. They were looking for trouble.
Of course, the actual competition would depend on the situation.
It was just a slap, and no battle skills could be used. Although it wouldn't be able to kill someone, it would still make them lose a lot of face, especially since the Hidden Dragon Rank battles were about to start. Before that, whoever lost would feel ashamed when they got on the stage.
Ji Liuyun's competition was indeed interesting.
As for Yan Qingchen, he didn't have an advantage in terms of speed, but he was like Nangong Lie, someone who liked to join in the fun. He would just get slapped a few times. Therefore, he was the first to say, "This competition is not bad. It's very interesting. Count me in. I'll join. I've always wanted to slap Lu Junyue's cheeks, and you, Ji Liuyun's. You better watch out this time."
Since that was the case, Long Chen naturally smiled and said, "I will participate. However, I don't know if the other two dare to do so."
He pointed at Lu Junyue and Feng Zhilin.
Lu Junyue was afraid that Long Chen wouldn't dare to join. Seeing him join, Lu Junyue laughed in her heart. Thinking about how she could slap Long Chen before the Hidden Dragon Rank battles, it was also a kind of revenge. Especially since Long Chen had said so much earlier, Lu Junyue wouldn't care if she didn't slap his teeth away.
They had been slapped in the face in public. They were all people with status. This match was a challenge for them.
Since Feng Zhilin and Lu Junyue had joined, only Xue Zi was left.
Long Chen didn't know this girl well. But at this moment, she didn't say anything and just took a step forward.
Ji Liuyun laughed, "If all six of you agree, then it's settled. All the brothers and sisters here, as well as the senior and senior uncles and senior aunts, you'll be the witnesses. If anyone tries to cheat, you'll have to laugh at them."
Ji Liuyun laughed. 'These idiots. Don't they know that I'm the fastest among the three thousand palace disciples?'
