Liu Lan could only watch helplessly as the Lightning Talisman exploded.
As the Lightning Talisman exploded, the thousands of lightning bolts transformed into a lightning ball with a diameter of ten meters, which instantly wrapped around Long Chen.
Due to the violent attack of the lightning, a series of explosions could be heard coming from the lightning ball.
Under the circumstances, Long Chen would definitely be blasted into smithereens by the lightning. It was impossible for him to survive!
The reason why Long Chen had ended up like this was all because of her.
She wasn't a brainless person. As soon as she saw Long Chen arrive, she knew that the person being targeted was not her, but Long Chen.
Chu Yunxi, Jin Shengen, and the mysterious man in black had all wanted to kill Long Chen.
Even the Lightning Talisman had been given to Chu Yunxi by the man in black!
Long Chen had come to save her because he cared about her life. However, he had ended up dying here. This made Liu Lan's heart ache.
"Long Chen, I'm sorry …" The pain in her heart was heart-wrenching.
If it weren't for the fact that she was completely restrained by the chains, she would have died together with Long Chen.
Chu Yunxi felt extremely excited when he saw Liu Lan's hopeless expression.
"Bitch, now that Long Chen is dead, let's see how you're going to resist!"
Chu Yunxi felt his blood boil when he saw Liu Lan's pitiful expression. At this moment, he could no longer endure it.
He let out a hideous laugh and pounced onto Liu Lan's body. As he touched her mature body, Chu Yunxi instantly turned into a wild beast as his breathing quickened.
Being hugged by him, Liu Lan wasn't afraid at all. She smiled bitterly and was about to self-detonate her Earth Core to take Chu Yunxi's life. But at this moment, she realized that Chu Yunxi, who was pressing down on her, had suddenly stopped moving.
Liu Lan was startled. She raised her head and saw Chu Yunxi's eyes widening in disbelief!
A pitch-black sword had pierced out from between his eyebrows and was slowly withdrawing.
Drops of warm flowers dripped onto Liu Lan's face, causing her beautiful face to blossom like a beautiful flower.
Liu Lan knew that the sword had pierced through the back of Chu Yunxi's head. It had pierced right through his head, and in the blink of an eye, Chu Yunxi had been killed.
Even in death, Chu Yunxi didn't know who killed him.
Liu Lan seemed to know as well. She pushed Chu Yunxi's corpse away with all her might, only to be completely stunned by what she saw.
In front of her stood a young girl shrouded in clouds and mist.
The girl had a head of fine, jet-black hair that draped over her shoulders, giving her a gentle and beautiful appearance.
Her skin was white and rosy. She was as gentle as jade, sparkling and translucent. Her big eyes twinkled as if they could speak. Her small red lips and white skin were even more distinct. A pair of dimples were evenly distributed on both sides of her cheeks. When she smiled, the dimples on her cheeks were faintly discernible. She was as cute as a fairy.
Such a devastatingly beautiful girl, who completely overwhelmed her in terms of looks, had suddenly appeared in front of her. Liu Lan couldn't help but feel a little dazed.
She had seen many beauties before, and she herself was one of them. However, when she saw the ethereal, elegant, and fairy-like temperament of this young girl, she even felt a little ashamed.
She also noticed from the corner of her eyes that the young girl was currently holding a pitch-black sword that looked like scrap metal. There was even blood dripping from the sword …
Liu Lan suddenly found it difficult to breathe.
Without a doubt, this young girl was the one who had killed Chu Yunxi and saved her.
Normally, Liu Lan would be very grateful. However, this young girl was unbelievably beautiful. Liu Lan was even more confused and shocked. Although the young girl in the clouds looked very real, Liu Lan could feel that she didn't have a body.
If she didn't have a body, could she be a ghost?
Liu Lan felt a little scared when she thought that she was on the Nine Demon Mountain.
At that moment, the young girl in the clouds looked at her with a pair of beautiful eyes. The coldness in her eyes caused Liu Lan's heart to tremble.
The scrap metal sword slowly moved in front of Liu Lan and rested under her chin, lifting her seductive face up.
"What … what are you doing?" Liu Lan was still tied up by the chains. Furthermore, she was injured and couldn't resist at all.
The young girl in the clouds actually opened her mouth and spoke. Her voice was as cold as the chirping of an oriole. Although it was pleasant to hear, the words she said made Liu Lan feel scared.
She stared at Liu Lan and said slowly, "I'm warning you, from now on, don't bother Long Chen anymore. Otherwise, I'll chop you into pieces!"
After saying that, Lingxi suddenly waved her sword!
Liu Lan's eyes narrowed. She thought that she was going to die, but when she felt her body relax, she realized that the young girl in the clouds wasn't trying to kill her, but rather, she was trying to break the chains that were binding her.
When she opened her eyes, she was shocked to see that the young girl in the clouds had suddenly turned into a cloud of smoke and gradually entered the metal sword. At the same time, the metal sword gradually shrunk until it was only the size of an earring.
"She told me to stop bothering Long Chen?"
Liu Lan kept quiet out of fear. However, she quickly deduced another meaning from the words: Long Chen wasn't dead!
“
Liu Lan looked over in surprise. Indeed, at the place where the Lightning Talisman had exploded, the surroundings were a complete mess. In the middle of the ground, there was a pitch-black figure sitting there. Although his entire body was charred black, who else could it be other than Long Chen?
"Long Chen!
You're not dead! "
Liu Lan's face lit up with joy when she sensed that Long Chen was still alive. She struggled to her feet and was about to make her way over to Long Chen when the ear-stud sized sword whistled through the air and blocked her path.
Liu Lan immediately stopped in her tracks and forced herself to calm down.
Looking at the tiny blade, she finally recalled that Long Chen had always been wearing an earring on his ear. It was obvious that this was the sword in front of her.
As for the beautiful young girl in the clouds, she had returned from the sword …
"In other words, that young girl has been following Long Chen since the beginning, but we didn't know about it. The reason why Long Chen is so mysterious must be because of that mysterious young girl …"
Liu Lan felt helpless when she recalled the words that the young girl had said to her.
To be honest, Long Chen did have a very important place in her heart. However, when she recalled the jealous and murderous words that the young girl had said, Liu Lan knew that they were a couple, so she didn't dare to think too much about it.
The fact that Long Chen was still alive was great news to her.
"Thank you for saving my life, young lady."
Liu Lan calmed her emotions and instantly returned to her previous cold appearance. When she saw that Long Chen was treating his injuries, she took a few steps back.
"What exactly is the background of this young girl in the sword?
It's unheard of for her to exist in such a way. With her around, Long Chen's future will be limitless, "Liu Lan sighed as she thought of this.
"However, this has nothing to do with me. I'm ten years older than him, and I'm not on the same path as him." After being threatened by Lingxi, Liu Lan's heart hardened and she tossed aside those ridiculous thoughts of a young girl.
However, when she thought of this young man who had risked his life to save her, she still felt a little unwilling …
With this thought in mind, Liu Lan took out some spiritual medicine from her Cosmos Sack and started to treat her injuries.
Today's matter had finally come to an end. However, Chu Yunxi and Jin Shengen had both died, and Liu Lan didn't know how to deal with the aftermath. She could only wait for Long Chen to recover.
There were two reasons why Long Chen was able to survive the Lightning Talisman that was worth a million gold coins. Firstly, his dragon scales after his Dragon Soul transformation had a strong resistance to lightning. Secondly, when he had absorbed the Thunder Flame Crystal, he had been tempered by lightning many times. His Thunder Flame Battle Physique had a strong resistance to lightning.
Because of these two reasons, Long Chen was lucky enough to survive.
Right now, most of his injuries were superficial wounds. After being injured, he had no way of attacking Chu Yunxi. If Chu Yunxi had endured the urge to attack Long Chen, it would have been very difficult for Long Chen to survive.
Chu Yunxi wanted Liu Lan, and in his excitement, he had forgotten himself. Therefore, when Lingxi had attacked, she had directly taken his life.
This story tells us that being impatient won't accomplish great things …
At this moment, Long Chen was using the Energy Restoring Battle Technique to treat his superficial wounds.
The Energy Restoring Battle Technique was a Middle Profound Rank Battle Technique. After using it for a long time, its effects wouldn't be any worse than a Middle Profound Rank spiritual medicine. Coupled with Long Chen's strong physique, his recovery rate was extremely high. Therefore, his injuries had more or less recovered after half an hour.
After withdrawing from his Dragon Soul transformation, Long Chen tidied his clothes so that there weren't any traces of a fight on his body.
Seeing that Long Chen had successfully recovered, Lingxi happily returned to his ear.
"Big baddie, you've scared me again this time!" Lingxi mumbled with her brows knitted together. She still felt some lingering fear in her heart.
"I didn't think that he would have such a thing. But it's a good thing we got through this."
Seeing that Liu Lan was sitting cross-legged, Long Chen heaved a sigh of relief. Shortly after, he teased, "Little Xi, your acting just now was pretty good."
He was referring to the words Lingxi had said to Liu Lan. At that time, Lingxi had been really cool.
"Who said that? I've always been fierce!" Lingxi's face instantly turned red when Long Chen saw through her thoughts.
At this moment, Long Chen saw Jin Shengen and Chu Yunxi's corpses. He carried the two bodies together and searched them for a while. He found two Cosmos Bags and put them into his own bag without batting an eyelid.
"Another windfall." Long Chen said.
"I've discovered that you're becoming more and more naughty." Lingxi giggled. Actually, she, who had been naughty since she was young, also liked to do such things.
After putting away the Cosmos Bags, Long Chen looked at the two corpses again.
"Opposing me? You're the ones who forced me into a dead end. If I don't kill you, I won't be able to live. So you really can't blame me for dying."
After saying that, Long Chen used the power of the Thunder Flame to create some sparks that landed on Jin Shengen and Chu Yunxi's corpses. These two had been Long Chen's greatest opponents not too long ago. Their corpses were gradually swallowed up by the flames.
At this moment, Liu Lan slowly opened her eyes. When she saw the soaring flames and the calm youth within the flames, she found herself a little intoxicated.
