Half a month ago, everyone knew that he was at the Third Layer of the Dragon Vein Stage. To break through two layers in half a month, this kind of talent had never been seen in the history of Baiyang County. If this was the case, it would be strange if the Yang family Ancestor didn't try his best to protect Long Chen's life!
Long Chen was absolutely convinced that his performance today had already shocked everyone. In the following period of time, he would be the hottest topic in Baiyang County!
His attempt to break through to the fifth layer of the Dragon Vein Realm was surprisingly smooth, as if all the conditions were right. In fact, it was even easier than breaking through to the fourth layer of the Dragon Vein Realm. The medicinal energy of the two Mountain Demon Ginsengs was completely refined by Long Chen, and in less than a quarter of an hour, the long fifth Dragon Vein was opened!
A dragon's roar shook the heavens and earth!
Under the nourishment of the Mountain Demon Ginseng's medicinal power, Long Chen's injuries were mostly healed. At this moment, Long Chen suddenly stood up. Everyone realized that a powerful aura had erupted from his body at this moment. His eyes were surging with a divine light. It seemed like he could easily defeat Yang Lingyue at this moment!
"This guy … is really going against the heavens …"
Chen Liu, who had been bullied before, hid behind the people beside him, his legs trembling uncontrollably …
Those who had mocked Long Chen and given him the cold shoulder swallowed a mouthful of saliva as their faces turned pale.
Seeing that Long Chen had really broken through to Layer 5, the old ancestor of the Yang Clan looked indifferent, but he was actually very pleased.
In the crowd, Yang Lingqing's gaze was noticed by Long Chen. Yang Lingqing's eyes were naturally complicated.
Long Chen thought that the matter was over. He looked at the old ancestor of the Yang Clan and was about to ask for the Dragon Seal, but at this time, a few people from the Bai Clan walked up to the ring.
His eyes were already revealing coldness.
The old ancestor of the Yang Clan was slightly stunned, and asked, "What's the matter?"
Bai Zhanxiong looked at Long Chen with obvious killing intent. He took a step forward and said respectfully to the ancestor of the Yang family, "Uncle Yang, I have no intention to disturb the family meeting, but there is one thing we must ask him."
When his eyes fell on Long Chen's ears, Long Chen knew something was wrong.
"Just now, when Lingxi attacked, the Lingxi Sword was exposed. Bai Shixun had seen the Lingxi Sword before, so of course he described its appearance. These three Bai Clan members should already know that I castrated Bai Shixun!"
At this moment, the Yang Family Old Ancestor also looked over, his eyes filled with doubt.
At this moment, Bai Zhanxiong gazed coldly at Long Chen and said, "Everyone, I'm sure all of you know what happened to my son half a month ago. The murderer was so ruthless that I wished for nothing more than to hack him into pieces!"
"According to what Shi Xun said, he was chasing after a black iron sword, but unexpectedly, he encountered a masked man who wanted to snatch it. That's why he was in such a state. What I want to say is that the black sword that saved him is exactly the same as what my son described!"
"Kid, that masked man was you!"
"At such a young age, you are so cruel and merciless. You deserve to die!"
Bai Zhanxiong's question made everyone look at Long Chen.
Bai Shixun's matter had long been known by everyone in Baiyang County. However, the Bai Clan was the number one overlord in Baiyang County. Most people only dared to talk about it in a low voice, but absolutely could not make it public.
But they all knew that Bai Shixun's life was most likely ruined.
Long Chen thought to himself, "If I'm found out, I'm afraid the Old Ancestor will not want to provoke a conflict between the Bai and Yang Families. Maybe he will give up on me. Anyway, the other party has no evidence, so I will not admit it!"
So he raised his head and said coldly, "I don't know what you are talking about. What happened to your son has nothing to do with me.
Also, the weapons in this world are not that far apart. How can you be so sure that my sword is your son's? "
Seeing that Long Chen would not admit it, Bai Zhanxiong was very angry. He said coldly, "There are many weapons in this world, but there are not many abandoned swords that are seventy centimeters long, completely black, and two fingers wide. Do you still want to quibble?"
Long Chen said indifferently, "You've already seen the sword just now, so you can naturally describe it now. You're a reputable person in Baiyang County, yet you want to frame a nobody like me. What's going on?"
Seeing that they were arguing endlessly, the Yang Family Old Ancestor said directly, "Chen 'er, can you guarantee to me that you did not do that?"
Long Chen nodded and said, "Indeed, I did not. I still don't know what happened to his son. Could it be that his limbs were broken, or his dantian was destroyed?"
Lying in front of the Yang Family Old Ancestor required a certain amount of courage.
His performance just now was not bad, and the Yang Family Old Ancestor was a person who loved talent. Although Bai Zhanxiong had done this, the Yang Family Old Ancestor was still reluctant to let the meat in his hands be slaughtered by the Bai Family, so he asked before.
Long Chen also guessed what he was thinking, so he dared to lie in front of him.
With Long Chen's affirmation, the Yang Family Old Ancestor said to Bai Zhanxiong, "Xiong 'er, this matter needs to be investigated clearly, we cannot jump to conclusions. Today, you go back and explain to your father. Brother Bai and I are sworn brothers, he naturally trusts me, I will give him an explanation. As for the rest, there is no need to say more."
This was the Yang Family's Family Meeting, and the Yang Family Old Ancestor's face was the most important. Moreover, the relationship between the two families in Baiyang County was complicated, and Bai Zhanxiong was about to marry into the Yang Family. This series of relationships made Bai Zhanxiong frown, but he could only nod and say, "Since Uncle Yang has said so, how can I not obey? Since the Yang Family became rich, my father has helped a lot. Uncle Yang and my father are like brothers, I can rest assured that Uncle Yang will take care of things …"
Before leaving, Bai Zhanxiong looked at Long Chen coldly and then left.
"Yang Family … Haha, this kid, I will let you go for now, but no matter who you are, you don't have much time left. The Bai Family is the real ruler of Baiyang County!"
Bai Zhanxiong walked down the martial arts arena, but Bai Shiji was still there. He smiled cruelly at Long Chen, then asked the Yang Family Old Ancestor, "Grandpa Yang, he will participate in the Beast Hunting Competition, right?"
The Yang Family Old Ancestor's eyes narrowed, but he did not answer. He knew that this was a warning from the kid in front of him. If Long Chen participated in the Beast Hunting Competition, the result would not be good.
Bai Shiji then walked in front of Long Chen and sneered, "There will be a Beast Hunting Competition in a while. You better not participate, or you will lose your life."
The aura of a Level Seven Dragon Vein Realm was completely revealed.
"Is this a show of strength …"
Bai Shiji's eyes were full of provocation.
Long Chen smiled coldly. He knew that the next opponent would be him.
After the Bai Family left, the other forces also left, and the Yang Family Meeting finally came to an end.
However, the disturbance this time was quite big.
The Yang Family Old Ancestor's eyes flickered.
"Follow me."
After saying that, the ancestor of the Yang family walked to the front, with Long Chen following behind him silently. As for the others, they could only watch as they left, including Yang Lingqing.
"Such a big disturbance was caused by you. What kind of person are you …"
Today, Long Chen's performance was like a storm, sweeping into the ears of the servants. Those who looked at him coldly before could not help but feel terrified.
… … …
Along the way, the gazes were filled with fear and respect.
Long Chen smiled. This was the life he wanted.
Arriving at the Yang Family Old Ancestor's small wooden house in front of the Martial Arts Palace, the Yang Family Old Ancestor sat down cross-legged and looked at Long Chen.
"First, let me ask you a question. Bai Zhanxiong's youngest son, did you do it?"
Long Chen nodded.
This was within the Old Ancestor's expectations. He carefully looked at Long Chen, and after a long time, he sighed and said, "You little brat, I've never seen you with such spirit before, but today's performance really surprised me.
You wanted to use my love for talent to stop Yun Tian and Bai Zhanxiong. It was very smart, but also very dangerous.
However, you made the right bet, so you survived in the end. "
Long Chen was not surprised that his plan was seen through by this old man. He could only say, "In order to save my life, these are all expedient measures. I hope Grandfather will not argue with me."
He knew very well that although he did not have any feelings for this old man, he was the head of the Yang Family, the leader of the Yang Family. He could offend anyone but him.
The Yang Family Old Ancestor was silent for a moment before replying, "With my temperament, if you used me like this in the past, I would naturally not let you off easily, but right now there is an urgent matter I need to attend to. If you do it well, I won't hold it against you.
You should know that there are not many people in Bai Yang County who dare to use me. "
"What is it that you want me to do?"
The Yang Family Old Ancestor looked at him with sparkling eyes. After a long time, he sighed and said, "Let me tell you about the history of Bai Yang County. Thirty years ago, there was no Yang Family in Bai Yang County, only the Bai Family. At that time, I was just a talented warrior. I got to know the Bai Family's current Patriarch, and we went out to explore the world together. We forged a deep friendship. Finally, we returned to Bai Yang County, and I established the Yang Family and had a group of descendants."
"To this day, my relationship with Brother Bai is still very good. Qing Er and Xiong Er's marriage was also between the two of us. However, recently, because of one thing, I have been racking my brain."
Long Chen hurriedly asked, "What is it?
Could it be that Beast Hunting Competition? "
The Yang Family Old Ancestor nodded and said, "The Bai and Yang Families have always been close to each other, but ten days ago, everything changed. You actually crippled Bai Zhanxiong's youngest son, which made the relationship even worse.
If I didn't protect you, it would have been fine. But now that I've protected you, the relationship has worsened again. I'm afraid Qing Er's marriage may not go through. "
At this point, the Yang Family Old Ancestor frowned deeply.
It turned out that the marriage was actually arranged by this old guy. Long Chen had already cursed this old guy a hundred times in his heart. He was not very clear about the relationship between the two super experts of the Bai and Yang Families, but from what the Old Ancestor said, it should be very good.
"Maybe it won't go through?
That's good, I don't have to worry about it anymore.
Why don't I make the relationship between the two families worsen?
I'm afraid this old guy will be the first to kill me … "
Long Chen pursed his lips and said, "Grandpa, this Beast Hunting Competition you speak of, what is it?"
The Yang Family Old Ancestor looked at Long Chen with burning eyes and said, "Our Bai Yang County is under the jurisdiction of Yuan Ling City, and ten days ago, the Lingwu family of Yuan Ling City sent a message, ordering the younger generation of the Bai and Yang Families to enter the Great Barren Mountain to participate in the Beast Hunting Competition. The one who obtains the most beast cores will be given the right to manage Bai Yang County for twenty years.
As for the next management right, it will be fought over by the younger generation after twenty years. "
"For a very long time, Bai Yang County has been in a state of no one, and the neighboring towns all have their own managers. This time, it is finally our Bai Yang County's turn.
Twenty years of management right is very important to any family. Although Brother Bai and I are like brothers, this time, I cannot easily give it up. "
The Old Ancestor sighed and said, "The Beast Hunting Competition is on the afternoon of the tenth of August, and Qing 'er's wedding day is on the evening of the tenth of August, so this time, you young disciples will not have much time to attend the banquet.
Also, during the Beast Hunting Competition, there will be people from Yuan Ling City to supervise, so we cannot go near the Great Barren Mountain. "
After hearing so much, Long Chen already knew what he had to do.
"What Grandpa wants me to do is to cooperate with the Yang Family disciples in the Beast Hunting Competition and obtain more beast cores, right?"
The Yang Family Old Ancestor nodded and said, "In the younger generation of the Bai Family, Bai Shiji and Bai Shichen are both at the seventh level of the Dragon Vein Realm, and there are two at the sixth level. In the Yang Family, only Ling Yue and Yang Wu can take on the responsibility. You did well today, learning the Meteor Fist in three days, and using it to this extent, the Yang Family has a glimmer of hope in the Beast Hunting Competition."
"Holding the Beast Hunting Competition is good, the Bai Family and Yang Family disciples have a good relationship, they will not kill each other, but you have to be careful of the Bai Family disciples. When you enter the Great Barren Mountain, go hunt beasts by yourself, you must not meet with the Bai Family, so that we can obtain more beast cores than the Bai Family."
Long Chen nodded, he understood what the Old Ancestor meant. He wanted him to act alone, as a dark horse of the Yang Family.
He was also a hope of the Old Ancestor.
However, when the time came, would it really be as the Yang Family Old Ancestor imagined?
How could Long Chen not meet Bai Shiji?
Long Chen nodded and said, "Grandson will listen to Grandpa's orders."
The Yang Family Old Ancestor laughed and said, "You have worked hard for the Yang Family, I will naturally not mistreat you. I will take care of Yun Tian for you, and the Dragon Seal also belongs to you.
Train well for the next few days, and strive to have a breakthrough in fourteen days. "
Getting the Dragon Seal from the Yang Family Old Ancestor.
Long Chen's heart was filled with excitement when he saw those two bold and flamboyant words.
"With the Dragon Seal, my strength will soar again!
Also, Dad said that the Dragon Seal is not simple, I want to see what secrets it holds, and what kind of existence a Dragon Warrior is! "
At this time, the Yang Family Old Ancestor took out another bag and said, "Here are five hundred spiritual jades, take it.
If you can absorb them all, you should be able to reach the sixth layer of the Dragon Vein Realm. However, on the path of cultivation, it is taboo to be greedy, you have just reached the fifth layer of the Dragon Vein Realm, you should familiarize yourself with the Dragon Seal for the next few days.
For now, you can go back and rest. "
Only then did Long Chen take his leave.
"Half a month's time, the Beast Hunting Competition and the wedding, these two times clash, what should I do?
… Forget it, I will first cultivate the Dragon Seal and see how strong I can become! "
