Time passed quietly. Long Chen was still waiting when the Divine Palace Thunder Dragon Gong Qing came to find him.
The two of them stood outside the door. Gong Qing said directly, "We already know that the Wolf Tribe is your brother. Today, we mainly came to ask you what you think."
Long Chen naturally knew that they were worried that he would go easy on Mo Xiaolang. After all, Mo Xiaolang could be considered to be imprisoned by the other party. If Long Chen thought about his personal feelings, it would be very disadvantageous for the Illusion Immortal Tribe. The Illusion Immortal Tribe had already obtained the first point, and they were even more eager to obtain the second point. If they obtained both points, the Illusion Immortal Tribe would almost certainly win.
Long Chen did not want to hide it from them. He said, "This also depends on the situation and luck. The Star Lord Competition is very important to me, but this brother is even more important. I think I will choose wisely."
So it was like that …
Although Gong Qing had not known Long Chen for long, he knew Long Chen's personality. His decision was not out of Gong Qing's expectations.
He could only say, "You'd better think carefully. You have already turned the tide and obtained victory in the first battle. You have already made a great contribution to the human race, but compared to your status, this contribution is still not enough. The people in the five great dragon cities who hate your father will not let this matter rest. If you truly want to gain their recognition and respect, you can only make another great contribution and truly influence the outcome of the Star Lord Competition. Only by becoming the champion of the elite competition can you achieve this."
Long Chen was silent and did not comment.
He had already made up his mind. No matter what Gong Qing said, he would not change his mind.
Gong Qing continued, "If your wish is to return to the Dragon God Domain and let us all acknowledge and accept you, then this is the only thing you can do. There is only one Starlord Battle, and there won't be another chance in the future. I advise you to take advantage of the momentum of the team battle and work hard to become the champion of the elite battle in one fell swoop. When that time comes, you will definitely cause a sensation throughout the entire world. The Dragon God Domain will also hear of your great name. The contributions you have made will not be able to be distorted or erased. Those who want to refute you and reject you will also have to carefully consider your contributions."
In reality, Gong Qing was wrong. Long Chen definitely did not want to gain the recognition of the human race. He wanted to prove to them that both he and his father had never wronged them. He wanted them to shut their mouths and not beg for their forgiveness. This was something that Long Chen could not do.
He said, "I will carefully consider what you said."
By saying this, he was simply chasing Gong Qing away.
Hearing this, Gong Qing patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Young man, you mustn't be impulsive. Don't ruin your great future once again. Even I am worried for you. I am certain that you are an unparalleled divine dragon, a genius who is even stronger than Di Yu. As long as you are a little smarter and think more about yourself, you will definitely be able to replace Di Yu's position one day and make all the elders treat you as a treasure. You might even become a Divine Soul in the future. With your unparalleled talent, no one will be able to compare to you. This is definitely possible. You have already put in a lot of effort for all of this. Don't ruin everything for an unrelated person."
Long Chen smiled faintly and nodded. He said, "Alright, I will think it through."
"That's good. I will take my leave first."
Gong Qing took another deep look at him. He had already analyzed the pros and cons for Long Chen. As for how to carry it out, it was up to Long Chen himself. On one hand, it was his own great future, and on the other hand, it was just a brother. Gong Qing believed that Long Chen would ultimately make the right choice. After all, everyone was selfish.
After Gong Qing left, Long Chen returned to his residence.
Lingxi was playing with the spiritual snow hound and the Nine Hells Illusionary Butterfly in the Divine Kingdom. She said softly, "Is there still no news from Xiao Lang?"
Long Chen was about to nod when he suddenly became nervous. After waiting for such a long time, there was finally some movement from the astral talisman. He hurriedly contacted Mo Xiaolang. On the other side, Mo Xiaolang looked somewhat haggard.
"Big Brother."
Mo Xiaolang wanted to say something but hesitated.
Long Chen said, "We have fought side by side for so many years. In the future, you absolutely cannot hide anything from me. That is, if you still think of me as your big brother."
In the Stellar Source, he had cleverly concealed it, and Long Chen was really fooled by him.
Mo Xiaolang pursed his lips and said, "I understand. But this time, I do not want to implicate you. Moreover, you have your own matters and future."
Long Chen interrupted him and said, "These are not important. First, tell me the specifics of the situation."
Mo Xiaolang was silent for a moment, then finally said, "Yan Er is in the hands of the Eclipse Wolf Lord. They said that they will only release Yan Er if I become the champion of the Elite Competition. Otherwise, we will never meet again. They will also hand me over to Nine-tailed Celestial Fox."
"So it's like this..."
Long Chen's eyes suddenly became bloodshot. The opponent's actions and threats had undoubtedly touched his bottom line, causing a terrifying killing intent to sprout in his heart. He clenched his fists and stabilized them with great difficulty. He knew that Mo Xiaolang must be even more furious and unwilling. As his big brother, he shouldn't be angry with him, but rather, he should guide him. After all, there was a demon seed in Mo Xiaolang's body.
Long Chen took a deep breath and said, "With the abilities of Sky Pillar and the two Wolf Lords, we have no way to go against them. We can only remember this hatred and do as they say. There are eight people in the Elite Competition, and there will be three elimination rounds. Finally, the champion will be decided. If your opponent is me, I will admit defeat in advance. But if it is Primal Chaos Kunwu, you will defeat him."
Long Chen wanted the best situation, and that was for him to fight Primal Chaos Kunwu first. Even if he lost, Primal Chaos Kunwu wouldn't be able to be in his best condition. It would be very easy for Mo Xiaolang to become the champion. What he was worried about was that Mo Xiaolang would encounter Primal Chaos Kunwu first. In that case, if Mo Xiaolang wanted to win, he would have to go through a bitter battle with an unknown outcome.
Hearing Long Chen's words, Mo Xiaolang was moved to tears. He said, "Big Brother, I know why you are participating in the Star Lord Competition. You have already obtained a victory, so how can you let it go to waste because of me? You are the person who will most likely become the champion. As long as you do that, you will be able to avoid a lot of trouble when you return to the Dragon God Domain in the future. Washing away the shame of your father has always been your wish. There is no need for me to let you..."
"You are treating me like an outsider," Long Chen interrupted him and said with a smile.
He paused for a moment, then said, "Since the beginning of Baiyang Town, we have been fighting all the way until now. You are me, and I am you. There is no distinction between us. Yan'er is also my younger sister. To me, both of you are more important than life, dignity, and desire. There is no reason for me not to make a choice that I will never have any regrets about. This matter has been decided..."
Mo Xiaolang stood there in a daze. After a long time, he let out a breath. His eyes were still as pure as ever, but at this moment, they were already brimming with tears.
He wiped away these tears and said word by word, "I, Mo Xiaolang, swear that I will never do anything that will disappoint you in this life. If I do, I will be hacked into pieces."
"Don't bother with these useless things. Just make your preparations in case you face Primal Chaos Kunwu. I will go and meet the Dream Monarch. After all, the Sky Pillar Emperor is his old rival. Let's see if he can help me."
Long Chen said.
"Okay." Mo Xiaolang nodded.
After cutting off the connection with the star talisman, Long Chen told Lingxi that he didn't really trust the Illusion Immortal Tribe and the Life Dragon City. That was why he hid Lingxi.
Soon, he arrived at the Dream Monarch's place.
The Elite Battle was about to begin. The Dream Monarch and his younger brother Xiao Dingyuan were making arrangements and preparing for the next three battles.
Seeing Long Chen, the Dream Monarch was naturally very happy. He said, "You came at the right time. I was just about to inform you that in a few days, we will depart for the Elite Battle at the Cloud Touching Peak. This time, you, Xing Qing, and Huang Long have all obtained the spots for the Elite Battle."
Long Chen knew that he, Mo Xiaolang, Xing Qing, Primal Chaos Kunwu, and the two brothers from the Golden War God Tribe would definitely be able to participate in the Elite Battle. He didn't expect that the Netherworld Monarch Dragon would obtain two spots. He lost to the Primal Chaos Kunwu at the start of the battle, but his combat strength could still rank in the top eight.
After meeting the two important figures, Long Chen told the Dream Monarch about Mo Xiaolang's situation. Of course, he hid the part about the Sky Pillar Emperor's threat and the part about him wanting to admit defeat for Mo Xiaolang. He only said that Mo Xiaolang was threatened by the other party. The Dream Monarch King frowned and said, "This is not easy.
The Dream King frowned and said, "This matter is not easy to handle. He is a member of the Wolf Tribe and is under the control of the Vast Sun Wolf Tribe and the Eclipse Wolf Tribe. It is only right and proper that he is under the control of the Vast Sun Wolf Tribe and the Eclipse Wolf Tribe. Your brother is one of them, so it can be considered an internal matter. Our relationship with the Golden Wargod Tribe has always been very tense, so we cannot act rashly this time. The only thing we can do is probably negotiate with the Sky Pillar Emperor after the Elite Battle and see if he is willing to release your brother.
If the other party was angry, this kind of negotiation would not have a good outcome. Therefore, the only way was to let Mo Xiaolang win the championship. However, at that time, whether or not the two Wolf Lords would release them according to the agreement, let them regain their freedom, or even protect them, was not certain.
Although Long Chen was twice as young as he was, he still didn't have the power to resist these big shots who had cultivated for tens of thousands of years. What he lacked was still time.
"This calamity can only depend on Xiao Lang himself …"
Long Chen sighed. If Mo Xiaolang didn't succeed when the time came, Long Chen could only throw caution to the wind and do whatever he could …
Just as he was about to leave, the Dream Monarch suddenly said, "Long Chen, I heard from Xing Qing that you have seen a Star Core in the Stellar Source."
