Hearing the knock, Long Chen's heart skipped a beat. Last time, Liu Lan had appeared in front of him in an extremely seductive manner, teasing him in his residence.
"Don't think too much. It's just that old man." Lingxi returned to Lingxi's sword and said unhappily.
Hearing Lingxi's words, Long Chen knew who it was. Opening the door, it was indeed Liu Yuan. Just when Long Chen wanted to tease him, he saw Liu Yuan's worried expression.
"Long Chen, have you seen Lan 'er? I don't think she's in her room."
"I haven't seen her. Maybe she's walking around." He didn't want Liu Yuan to know about the matter between him and Liu Lan, so he just casually said a few words.
But why wasn't Liu Lan in her room?
Long Chen thought to himself, "Could it be that she's afraid of me and ran away first?
This woman pretended to be an experienced playboy, but it turns out that she's just a shy and tender girl. "
Seeing that Long Chen didn't see Liu Lan, Liu Yuan left.
In the Nine Demon Mountain Village, nothing would normally happen. But as a father, his worry came from the bottom of his heart.
"Where would she go?" Lingxi was curious.
"I don't know. Maybe she's going back to the Lingwu family."
This was just an interlude for Long Chen. He took out the halberd he had obtained from Li Feng and swung it around. He found that this weapon was very much to his liking. It was suitable for any kind of saber, spear, or sword.
"If I can obtain a halberd Battle Skill, it'll be very interesting." Thinking up to there, Long Chen couldn't help but yearn for the Blue Dragon Halberd.
The Blue Dragon Halberd had already surpassed the Profound Tier. It was a legendary Earth Tier Weapon. It was probably the most terrifying weapon in the entire Yuan Ling county. It even contained a legendary Earth Tier Battle Skill.
If he could get something like that, Long Chen would truly be a genius. In the future, he would be able to do whatever he wanted in Yuanling County and the Lingwu family. He wouldn't be like he was now where he could only listen to other people's orders.
"Lingxi is right. Mo Xiaolang has the Heavenly Wolf Demon Blade. If I don't have a decent treasure, then I'll look shabby. I just don't know how to get the Dongfang Clan's Blue Dragon Halberd."
Just as Long Chen was pondering this question, Lingxi suddenly shouted, "Someone's breaking in."
"Who is it?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the wind in the room was blown away. The door opened, and a black figure quickly fled. Long Chen was about to give chase, but he found a piece of paper flying towards him. He quickly reached out to catch it, but his whole body was knocked back a few steps.
"So strong. Who is this person?"
When he caught the paper, the person in black had already left. The person in black had a medium build, so it was hard to tell who he was. However, Long Chen knew that to be able to move freely in Nine Demon Mountain Village, he must be someone from the Lingwu family.
"Little Xi, do you know who it is?"
"I don't know. He ran too fast. I didn't have time to identify him."
Lingxi was a bit helpless. She looked at the paper in Long Chen's hand and said, "There are words. What does it say?"
Long Chen picked it up and took a look. He found that it said, "If you want Liu Lan's life, come alone to the desolate temple 25 Li west of the Nine Demons Mountain Villa. If you find someone following you, immediately kill Liu Lan!"
"What's going on?" Long Chen's expression immediately changed.
"That woman was abducted?
Who would kidnap her? "
Although Lingxi despised her, she was kind and worried when she thought that she was in danger.
"Even though they kidnapped Liu Lan, their target is obviously me." Thinking of this, Long Chen's eyes were filled with killing intent.
He knew that Liu Lan must have wanted to leave the Lingwu Clan because of him. But unfortunately for her, she must have been targeted by someone.
"What should I do?
Long Chen. "
Lingxi was a bit flustered. She was used to living a carefree life. She couldn't make a decision.
"What else can I do? Let's go and take a look." Saying this, Long Chen had already walked out.
"It seems like we still need to fight."
Actually, in his heart, he had already guessed who did it. There were only a few people from the Lingwu family. Apart from them, who else could it be?
However, he still needed to confirm it. Hence, he walked towards the living quarters of the Green Clan and Jin Clan. He sneaked over and walked around the area. At this moment, a cold snort came from behind, "Long Chen, what are you doing here?"
Long Chen turned around and saw that the person who spoke to him was Chu Tianxiong. Beside him was Jin Luan, and behind them were Chu Fengqing and the rest.
They were obviously having a conversation at night.
However, Long Chen could see that Jin Shengen and Chu Yunxi were the only ones missing.
With the senses of Jin Luan and the rest, they would easily notice him and come out to question him.
But Long Chen's purpose was only to find out where they were going.
"It seems like Chu Tianxiong and Jin Luan don't have the guts to touch me after I entered the inner clan. Only young people are so impulsive …"
Knowing the answer he wanted, he left without another word. Looking at Long Chen's back, Chu Tianxiong and Jin Luan looked at each other.
"If we don't get rid of this brat today, he will definitely cause us great trouble in the future," Chu Tianxiong said helplessly.
Although he didn't see Long Chen defeat Jin Shengen with his own eyes, he could roughly understand from other people's descriptions.
When Chu Yunxi was humiliated by Long Chen, the Chu family left in anger. However, they didn't get to see the final result. Moreover, it was still raining outside, so they didn't go back to the Lingwu family first. Instead, they stayed at Nine Demons Villa.
"But he is now an inner clan member, and Lord Xuan Xiao knows that he has a conflict with us. If something happens to him, Lord Xuan Xiao will definitely blame it on us. What can we do to him?"
Jin Luan said helplessly.
"Fortunately, Young Master Tianyu gave Shengen a Cloud Pattern Fruit, which helped him recover from his injuries today. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if he became ill."
"What?
He also gave Xi 'er a Cloud Pattern Fruit … "
…
"Aren't they injured?
How come they have the strength to jump around? "After confirming that this matter wasn't planned by Chu Tianxiong and Jin Luan, Long Chen relaxed a little.
"Now, let's go to the rotten temple that they talked about." So, Long Chen headed west of Nine Demons Villa.
"Long Chen, it seems like you care about her a lot." Lingxi pouted. She was a little unhappy.
"Idiot, she can only be considered as a friend of mine. When a friend is in trouble, I will naturally pull out my sword to help. However, you, Lingxi, are different. You are practically my other half. If you die, I will also die." Long Chen said with deep emotions.
"Tsk, only a ghost would believe you, you big baddie ~" Ling Xi had a look of disdain on her face, but in her heart, she had been fooled by Long Chen, this old fox.
The rain in Nine Demons Mountain was frighteningly heavy. Even the guards in black armor who were guarding Nine Demons Villa were nowhere to be seen.
Long Chen walked out of the Nine Demons Mountain Villa, and was greeted by a downpour of rain. The rainwater splashed on his body with a loud 'pa pa pa' sound. If it wasn't for the shield formed by his Zhen Qi, he would have already been soaked wet.
In a dark corner of Nine Demons Villa, a black-clothed man stood quietly. When Long Chen left Nine Demons Villa, he looked at Long Chen's back and laughed sinisterly.
"He actually went to confirm whether or not the Highest Elder made a move. This kid is quite smart. But tonight, Chu Yunxi and Jin Sheng 'en will be a little different. Different enough to be a fatal threat to you …"
Rumble!
In the Nine Demon Mountain, heavy rain poured down, quickly drowning out his voice.
Long Chen stared at the heavy rain all the way as he headed west.
Rumble!
In the sky, the sound of thunder could be heard continuously. Deafening explosions could be heard, and the ferocious flashes of lightning turned the dark night into day again.
"Long Chen, I still feel like something is wrong. They knew that they lost to you during the day, and they are not as strong as you, so why did they still use this trick?" Lingxi asked nervously.
"Also, the most important thing is that that stinky bitch is at the peak of the Earth Core realm. Although they are both very strong, they shouldn't have been able to capture her without any injuries, right?"
This was something Long Chen could think of as well.
"In other words, there was someone else who made a move. Who was that black-clothed man?" Tonight's events seemed to be a little mysterious.
However, although he was worried, he couldn't just leave Liu Lan alone. If he didn't go, who knew what would happen to her?
Long Chen knew that Chu Yunxi had been drooling over Liu Lan's beauty. If Chu Yunxi took the cabbage that Long Chen didn't get, how could he swallow this anger?
Unleashing his speed, Long Chen kept running in the Nine Demon Mountain, heading towards the rotten temple.
Twenty-five miles wasn't far for him. Soon, Long Chen found a rotten temple in the middle of the night. It was trembling in the wind and rain, and it looked like it could collapse at any time.
"It's here." Arriving at this place, Long Chen held his breath.
"Hey, if something unexpected happens, I will have to help." Lingxi said.
"How much soul energy do you have left from the soul grass?"
"Eh … I used it last time, so I only have two-thirds left." Lingxi stuck out her cute little tongue and said.
"Normally, you don't have to help, but if there's an emergency, like when I'm about to die, you can help. But you must make sure that you don't have less than one-third left. Otherwise, even if I survive, I won't forgive you!"
When Long Chen said this, his expression was very serious.
"Alright, alright. Frowning makes you look like an old man. Hehe."
Long Chen also laughed along with Lingxi. However, when he looked at the rotten temple, he didn't feel relaxed at all.
"You want to kill me? Let's see who's going to kill who!
This time, if you don't die, then I, Long Chen, will die! "
After saying this to himself, Long Chen increased his speed and rushed towards the rotten temple.
The rotten temple was full of holes, but the ceiling was still intact, and it could block out a lot of wind and rain.
Very quickly, Long Chen entered the rotten temple. When he opened his eyes, he saw Jin Shengen clucking his tongue and laughing at the side. Meanwhile, Chu Yunxi was like a wild beast, frantically tearing at Liu Lan's clothes, revealing a large patch of snow-white skin. Liu Lan's face was pale, and her face was filled with despair. Her delicate body was trembling, and tears kept welling up in her eyes …
