Long Chen and Lingxi finally returned.
Their return shocked many people, including Wang Chen. He had underestimated Long Chen's guts. Originally, he thought that Long Chen would stay in there for at least ten to five years, and he would try his best to drag the time until the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace's people couldn't help but break through the Devil Dragon Hall.
But who would have thought that Qin Wentian would actually come back, and he would even bring Ling Xi along with him. He came back in such a daring and carefree manner. With a single glance, he saw the man who was holding hands with Ling Xi in the horizon. At this moment, the two of them seemed to be a match made in heaven. They were both nervous, and there was unease in their eyes. But so what?
Wang Chen suddenly felt envious of Long Chen. Now, he had a huge advantage, not only in terms of strength, but also the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace. Most importantly, he had the support of the Lingwu Sword Master. But he still felt that he couldn't compare to Long Chen, because he didn't have the most important thing, love.
Just a little bit more and he would be perfect. He didn't expect that during the period when Lingxi went missing for the first time, someone like Long Chen appeared.
Seeing them coming together, Wang Chen, who was always known for his calmness, felt a pain in his heart. And it was this pain that made his eyes gradually turn crazy.
Long Chen.
He still came back.
He was as proud and bold as ever. What Wang Chen admired the most was his pride. There was nothing that could scare him.
From afar, Long Chen saw the Lingwu Sword Master in the sky, who was facing the Demon Dragon Palace Master. Before coming, Lingxi told Long Chen about the Lingwu Sword Master's situation, so that Long Chen could get to know his father, who was known as the Genius Sword Master.
It was only recently that Ling Xi found out that he wasn't her biological father. However, after so many years of affection,
But in Lingxi's eyes, the Lingwu Sword Master was still her father. This couldn't be changed.
But she was more loyal to her love. She respected this man with pure white eyes, but this couldn't stop her from loving Long Chen.
Feeling the sweaty palms of the girl next to him, Long Chen was a little distressed. To be honest, although he was prepared, the cold eyes of the man in the sky still scared Long Chen. The Lingwu Sword Master was the most indifferent person he had ever seen. It was as if everything in his eyes was indifference, as if life didn't exist.
"Come here."
Long Xing was alarmed. He immediately brought Long Chen to land not far from the Demonic Dragon Palace Master. With the Demonic Dragon Palace Master's protection, it was safer here.
Long Chen and Ling Xi stood there obediently, facing the cold gaze of the Lingwu Sword Master. This caused Long Chen to feel a little uneasy, and Ling Xi was so nervous that she was sweating profusely, her face a little red.
The scene suddenly became quiet.
Seeing this, the Demon Dragon Palace Lord laughed out loud and said: "This pair of children is really a good match. I have lived for so many years, but I have never heard of such a moving story. Some elders who want to break up a pair of lovebirds will suffer the wrath of the heavens. In my opinion, when the next Nirvana Doom descends, it would be best to directly strike some people to death."
His words were clearly cursing Lingwu and the rest.
Wang Chen saw the silence and quickly said, "Xi 'er, stop fooling around. The four sword masters are here. Hurry up and follow us back to the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace. Don't make your father angry. You know how terrifying Master's anger is. Hurry up, let's go."
Although Lingxi knew that they had to go back this time, she was still reluctant in her heart. She held Long Chen's hand tightly, her nails almost pierced into Long Chen's flesh.
But Long Chen didn't respond at all. He knew that it was time for him to speak. He didn't expect that Lingxi would take a step forward at this time and lightly kneel in front of the Lingwu Sword Master. Her eyes were misty as she kowtowed to him. Then, she knelt down and said with tears in her eyes, "Father, Little Xi is not obedient and made you angry.
She kowtowed again. Long Chen couldn't stop her. At this time, he didn't have the qualifications to stop Lingxi. He could only accompany Lingxi and listen to what she had to say.
At this moment, she said, "I … I didn't know my identity would have so many troubles and entanglements, and I really don't want to carry these things. I just want to be an ordinary woman, and then be with a man who loves me and is willing to protect me, and I am willing to give up everything for him. I only have this small wish in my life, I hope that father can fulfill it for me …"
The Lingwu Sword Master's eyes were cold. His pure white eyes were incomparably cold and emotionless.
Ling Xi knew that she didn't say enough. She kowtowed again and said, "Xi 'er has been very obedient since young and has never disobeyed father. But you know that my personality isn't what you expect. I can't fight to strengthen the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace and protect this place. I'm playful, I'm immature, I can't work hard like Brother Wang Chen to please you. But I know that father loves me from the bottom of your heart. I really don't have the heart to bear everything that you've given me. Maybe fate is playing a joke on you, I'm not suitable for this identity. I like the person beside me. I spent a lot of time with him when I was in trouble last time. Without him, I wouldn't be who I am today. It can be said that apart from father, he is another part of my life. I can't bear to part with him. I hope father can fulfill our relationship."
After she finished speaking, she kept kowtowing. However, the Lingwu Sword Master didn't move at all. Long Chen couldn't bear it anymore. No matter who it was, even if he raised Lingxi, so what? Long Chen couldn't bear to see Lingxi torturing herself like this. He quickly helped Lingxi up but he didn't expect this to anger the Lingwu Sword Master.
"Let her go."
The Lingwu Sword Master's expression turned sinister. His voice was like a sharp sword stabbing into Long Chen's ears. Instantly, Long Chen's ears were ringing. His body trembled and he almost vomited a mouthful of blood.
Just his voice alone was able to injure Long Chen to this extent. This Lingwu Sword Master was really terrifying.
However, Long Chen's eyes were cold. He didn't let go of his hand at all. Instead, he endured the pain and continued to help Lingxi up until she stood firm.
"I said, let her go." The Lingwu Sword Master snorted coldly, which injured Long Chen again.
Lingxi panicked and quickly broke away from Long Chen's hand. She looked at Long Chen with great heartache and then said to the Lingwu Sword Master with tears in her eyes, "Father, don't be like this. He didn't touch me."
Long Chen suddenly understood why the Lingwu Sword Master was so angry. He must have seen that Lingxi was no longer a virgin. About this, he had nothing to say. Today, it seemed that the Lingwu Sword Master, his father-in-law, was even more difficult to deal with than Wang Chen. If Long Chen wanted to take Lingxi away, the most important step was not to defeat Wang Chen, a talented young man of the same generation, but to make his father-in-law yield.
After all, in Lingxi's heart, her father would always be supreme.
Even though Long Chen had taken Lingxi, he never regretted it. He knew clearly that the Lingwu Sword Master cultivated Lingxi as the Sword Soul Emperor. Long Chen didn't know whether the Lingwu Sword Master had real feelings for Lingxi or not. So why should he be polite to this man? He was not Lingxi's real father.
What happened today was irreversible. Long Chen was no longer naive. He stopped looking at the Lingwu Sword Master's face and said to Lingxi, who looked miserable, "Lingxi, you don't have to beg him. It's impossible. Go back with them. With your identity, they can't do anything to you."
He clenched Lingxi's tender hand tightly in his own as he looked at his woman with a resolute gaze. He forced himself not to let his tears fall as he gritted his teeth and said, "We promised that we would be together forever and ever. Wait for me."
Lingxi's tears fell like rain.
Her heart was filled with endless reluctance. She thought that perhaps the Lingwu Sword Master would give her a little bit of hope and give her freedom, but she was overthinking it. Long Chen could see very clearly that it was simply impossible. If Ling Xi pleaded again, it would only cause the Lingwu Sword Master to vent his anger on Long Chen even more.
"I will wait for you. If you don't come, I will wait for you for the rest of my life. I will wait until I die."
Lingxi wiped her tears and looked at this man proudly. He had created miracles again and again. Even if this was the last time, no matter how difficult it would be, he would not fall.
"Okay."
Long Chen smiled. He wiped Lingxi's tears. What more could he ask for if he could have such a woman in his life?
Countless people watched as they parted.
Only the Lingwu Sword Master remained expressionless. He suddenly looked at the Demon Dragon Palace Lord. His white eyes were terrifyingly cold as he spoke, "Demon Dragon Palace Lord, according to our previous agreement, after they come out, they will no longer be under your control, right? In other words, if I kill this young man, it has nothing to do with your Demon Dragon Palace."
The Demon Dragon Palace Lord laughed.
"What?"
Long Xing was shocked. He hurriedly rushed to the side of the Demon Dragon Palace Lord and spoke with him intensely. His eyes were filled with dissatisfaction. The Demon Dragon Palace Lord hesitated for a moment before waving his hand, "No, this is the territory of my Demon Dragon Palace. This young man is under my protection. You cannot touch him."
Long Xing heaved a sigh of relief.
Looking at his brother who was so worried for him, Long Chen knew that Long Xing was truly worth it. If it wasn't for him, it would have been difficult for him to survive this time. He was no longer naive to think that the Spirit Martial Sword Master was a good person. That was simply impossible. It was already fortunate that the Spirit Martial Sword Master didn't kill him.
However, the Lingwu Sword Master clearly wouldn't let this matter rest. His pure white eyes coldly stared at Long Chen as the swords on his ears emitted clanking sounds.
That deathly aura enveloped Long Chen.
Long Chen understood that even if the Demon Dragon Palace Lord was under his protection, he was still a supreme expert of the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace. Killing a junior would be an easy task. Even if he acted first and reported later, what could the Demon Dragon Palace Lord do to him?
