Lu Junyue's attack had caused his blood to boil. Long Chen's expression changed. He could feel that the minor three tribulations in his body had become more active after this exchange. It was possible that the minor three tribulations were about to descend.
"There's no more time."
At this moment, Long Chen discussed with Yan Qingchen and allowed him to enter his Great Virtual Realm. He then activated his Blood Escape Technique. Given his current speed, the speed of the Blood Escape Technique was simply heaven-defying. Although Lu Junyue was running at his fastest speed, Long Chen's Blood Escape Technique was still able to instantly disappear from his sight.
Fifty kilometers away, Long Chen used Time Reversal to restore his body to the state he was in ten breaths of time ago. His divine essence was completely restored, and at the same time, the pulsing tribulations of the minor three tribulations were suppressed by Time Reversal. However, Long Chen estimated that it wouldn't be long before the tribulations descended.
This was the moment he had been waiting for. Long Chen was extremely excited.
The Blood Escape Technique allowed him to increase the distance between him and everyone else. At this moment, he finally displayed his fastest speed and turned into a golden bolt of lightning. In terms of speed, he was definitely the fastest among the group. Even Xue Zi, who was running in front, was already overtaken by Long Chen when he used the Blood Escape Technique. At this moment, it was impossible for her to catch up to Long Chen.
This was also the reason why Long Chen was so relaxed. From the start, he was destined to be the first.
Only when they were close to Heaven's Street did Long Chen let out the silly Yan Qingchen. There was clearly still a distance between them and the rest. Long Chen nudged Yan Qingchen. Yan Qingchen came to a realization and followed Long Chen towards Heaven's Street.
Although Yan Qingchen didn't know where Long Chen got his mysterious skills from, he knew that they were definitely first and second.
Thinking about it, Yan Qingchen was extremely excited.
At this moment, it was about time for the six martial artists to return. Everyone was waiting anxiously. The ranking of Long Chen and the rest was related to their wealth. Naturally, they were looking forward to the birth of this suspense.
"Who will be the first?"
"I'm guessing it's Ji Liuhua. He's the one who proposed the bet, so he must be confident."
"No, I think it should be Lu Junyue. The Sky God Palace has always been the number one palace. Throughout history, many of the most powerful warriors have come from the Sky God Palace. Plus, Lu Junyue was ranked tenth in the Hidden Dragon Rank five hundred years ago, not to mention now."
"I think the Snow Lotus Palace's Xue Zi is also a possibility."
The crowd was in a heated discussion, each with their own opinions. However, no one thought that Long Chen would be able to become the champion. As for Yan Qingchen, based on his size, it was obvious that he was not fast. Therefore, no one thought that he would be able to become the champion.
Although the odds for Long Chen were high, not many people dared to bet on him.
Only a few Evil Dragon Palace disciples gritted their teeth and placed bets on Long Chen winning.
It was almost time. Everyone was very excited.
Many people began to expand the range of their Divine Sense to the maximum, wanting to see the person who came back as soon as possible.
"Someone's back."
"Two people."
When the voice was heard, the crowd was shocked. Thinking about it, wasn't it Lu Junyue and Feng Zhilin?
Indeed, Lu Junyue was the strongest.
However, in the next moment, many people were dumbfounded. Of the two people who were flying over, one of them had a huge body and was clearly not Feng Zhilin. The other person did not seem to be Lu Junyue either.
In the blink of an eye, the two of them had already landed in the circle that Ji Liuhua had drawn. Both of them were holding a Purple Snow Bamboo.
For a moment, everyone was dumbfounded.
The appearance of the two people in front of them clearly made them unable to react for a moment. This had completely exceeded their expectations. Wasn't this the Evil Dragon Palace Master and Yan Qingchen …
Why are they so fast...
In that instant, the crowd could not wrap their heads around it.
Didn't this mean that out of Xue Zi, Ji Liuhua, Lu Junyue and Feng Zhilin, three of them would be slapped in the face. This...
Everyone was dumbfounded. Then, many people thought of the money they had bet and immediately felt their hearts ache. They did not blame Long Chen and Feng Zhilin for being the first to return. They blamed themselves for being blind. Ever since the Evil Dragon Palace Master appeared, he had been creating miracles one after another. Yet, they had underestimated him. Wasn't this pure idiocy?
In the circle, Long Chen and Yan Qingchen looked at each other and smiled. Now, it was time to feel good.
Long Chen had entered first, so he was first. Yan Qingchen had waited for Long Chen to enter before entering, so he was second.
For a moment, everyone was in a heated discussion.
"How is this possible? How are they so fast?"
"The others have yet to return. This... what is going on?"
"Long Chen and Yan Qingchen are actually so powerful."
"My Divine Crystals!"
All sorts of cries could be heard.
There were also people who were in awe of Long Chen and Long Chen's name. Most of these people were disciples of the Evil Dragon Palace.
Many people were already looking forward to what would happen next. What a magnificent scene it would be.
Half an hour later, the third place was finally revealed. Xue Zi and Ji Liuhua followed closely behind. Ji Liuhua's speed was indeed a bit faster than Xue Zi, but because Xue Zi had set off first, Ji Liuhua was unable to catch up to Xue Zi until the very last moment. Ji Liuhua could only blame herself for wanting to destroy the Purple Bamboo Forest.
However, Ji Liuhua and Xue Zi clearly did not know that Long Chen and Yan Qingchen had returned first. When she saw them, Xue Zi was startled. However, she did not hesitate and rushed into the circle. Ji Liuhua, on the other hand, was dumbfounded. In just a moment, the top three spots were already gone.
The top three spots were gone...
Ji Liuhua was dumbfounded. He knew what this meant. It meant that he would be slapped in the face in front of everyone. The funniest thing was that he was the one who had set up the bet.
For a moment, Ji Liuhua's face turned red.
In just a short while, the gloomy Feng Zhilin and the flustered Lu Junyue had returned. Even though they were far away, their divine senses had already sensed that the circle had already been occupied. These three people were Long Chen, Yan Qingchen and Xue Zi.
The two of them and Ji Liuhua were stunned in the air. Everyone's expression was extremely ugly.
Everyone kept quiet out of fear. What interesting things would happen next? Would those geniuses who kept their word go back on their words?
While they were still harboring such thoughts, how could Long Chen let them off? He was in a hurry, so he chuckled and said, "I'm really sorry, I was a step ahead and took first place. The three of you are people who keep their promises. If you're willing to bet, you must be willing to accept your loss. Since that's the case, I'll have to trouble the three of you to come down."
Yan Qingchen also smiled and said, "That's right. There are 100,000 people on this Sky Street as witnesses. The few of you are all disciples of the super halls. Of course, your words are worth a lot. Don't worry, I'm just putting on an act. I might not hit you too hard."
Xue Zi did not say anything. However, her disdainful gaze made Lu Junyue and the others feel even more uncomfortable.
Long Chen noticed Feng Zhilin. Her face was pale and her fists were clenched tightly. Her arms were trembling. It was obvious that she was trying her best to control her strength.
Lu Junyue was even worse. The Extreme Amethyst Heavenly Fire Formation was given to her by Long Chen. He had lost the battle of slapping again...
He was actually slapped in the face in front of so many people. Furthermore, he could not resist.
This was a great humiliation.
However, now was not the time to go back on their words...
They silently landed on the ground.
The three of them lowered their heads and were extremely sullen. Especially Feng Zhilin. She was the only female among them. She was even more embarrassed than the others.
"I'll go first."
Yan Qingchen was not afraid of anything. When the three of them landed on the ground, he walked over without saying anything. He looked at the three of them and smiled, "Of course, I can't hit a good girl. I'll just have to choose the two of you."
Yan Qingchen's actions were very big. Even though Ji Liuai and Lu Junyue were glaring at him, he still made a move and slapped both of their faces.
Slap, slap.
Two loud sounds could be heard. Yan Qingchen's slaps were extremely heavy. Both of their faces immediately turned red and swollen.
"Yan Qingchen, you're courting death."
Lu Junyue was so angry that he fainted. Seeing that he was about to retaliate, the surrounding crowd hissed. Lu Junyue's reputation was already bad because of the incident with Jiang Cha. This time, he was even more despised.
Ji Liuai covered her face and looked at Yan Qingchen with an aggrieved expression.
Long Chen did not have much time. Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he pushed Yan Qingchen behind him and walked in front of Ji Liuai.
"I didn't want to touch you at first. However, since you want to destroy the Purple Snow Bamboo, I'll do it for you."
Pa!
Long Chen's attack was naturally heavier than Yan Qingchen's. He slapped Ji Liuai's left cheek, causing her face to swell up like a pig's head.
"You."
Ji Liuai was unconvinced in her heart. However, there was nothing she could do. Today, she had shot herself in the foot. However, the enmity between her and Long Chen was already set in stone.
Next was Lu Junyue. Without saying anything, Long Chen slapped Lu Junyue's face with all his strength. BOOM! Lu Junyue cried out in pain. His entire body was smashed into the ground, causing a large area of the ground to crack. Lu Junyue's face was almost smashed by Long Chen. Blood and flesh splattered everywhere.
Ji Liuai was still cursing Long Chen for being too heavy handed. However, when he saw how Long Chen dealt with Lu Junyue, he shut his mouth.
A commotion broke out among the crowd. They could not help but recall the scene of Long Chen fighting against the Divine Palace Leader in the True Martial Palace. This young man's courage was simply too ridiculous. He was the son of the Divine Palace Leader. Not only did Long Chen send him into the Extreme Purple Heavenly Fire Formation, he even slapped Lu Junyue's face so bravely.
"Long Chen."
Honestly speaking, Long Chen's attack had already injured Lu Junyue. His heart was filled with boundless anger. Was there anything more unbearable than this?
However, Lu Junyue understood that he would definitely not be able to kill Ye Futian if he attacked him today. However, he would have a chance if he waited until the Hidden Dragon Ranking for a month.
If he attacked Ye Futian now, it would only make him look more like a coward.
