Of course, this was not fatal, but it was disgusting. The 72 God Cities basically controlled the direction of public opinion in the Dragon God Domain. In the eyes of ordinary people, City Lord Di Jun was already the ruler of the world. In fact, in the eyes of ordinary people, even the Blue Fire Emperor might not be as famous as City Lord Di Jun.
He was even less famous than City Lord Di Jun in the hearts of the human race.
Long Chen had been rebellious along the way, and City Lord Di Jun was an absolutely positive figure. When Di Jun revealed that City Lord Di Jun had been killed by Long Chen, everyone who had just heard the news of Long Chen defeating City Lord Di Jun was furious.
So now, the whole world was discussing this matter.
These people were no longer a match for Long Chen. Of course, they could not do anything to Long Chen. The 15 Dragon Emperors already knew the truth, and they would not put Long Chen on trial. But it was undeniable that they would bring great trouble to Long Chen. For example, it was impossible for Long Chen to convince the whole world that Long Qinglan was innocent. Even he himself could not gain the trust of the people.
Public opinion was not something that could be controlled by a strong fist.
Long Chen had thought of quibbling and not admitting it, but now that they had come to his door, the truth would be revealed to everyone one day. At that time, Long Chen would be even more unable to explain.
It was better to be frank and admit it directly.
He believed that one day, the truth would be revealed, and everyone would understand that Long Qinglan's efforts to salvage the situation today might not be effective.
Thus, when everyone's gazes landed on him, half of them were filled with anger, hatred, and disdain. Long Chen was neither servile nor overbearing. He scanned the crowd and said, "That's right, I killed him."
Admitting it personally would always cause a huge uproar.
For the people of the 72 God Cities, this was joy. Long Chen had finally admitted it, and they had more opportunities for revenge. They could not let it go.
As for the Eternal Dragon City, to be honest, they didn't think much of the Ancient City of the Seventy-two Divine Descendants and City Lord Di Jun. City Lord Di Jun didn't have much status here, so they admired Long Chen's growth more. Of course, killing a person who controlled the secular world of the Dragon God Domain wasn't the right thing to do.
For a moment, the hundreds of people of the God Cities all cursed.
"B * stard! Do you think that the people of my 72 God Cities are people that you can kill as you please? So what if your status is high now?"
"You're an executioner, a homicidal maniac. If someone like you grows stronger, you'll become like Long Qinglan and bring disaster to the human race sooner or later. You should be put to death. Everyone from Eternal Dragon City, why don't you act quickly?
"If you don't make a move, then we'll have to bring him back to Mount Emperor Jun and let our gods punish him."
"Everyone from the Eternal Dragon City, City Lord Di Jun is your representative in the Dragon God Domain. He has been working hard and conscientiously for so many years, managing the Dragon God Domain, and working hard for all of you. Even if he has not done any meritorious deeds, he should at least be credited for his hard work. As for all of you, you are so high and mighty. If not for our seventy-two Divine Cities, just how chaotic would the human race be right now? Our City Lord, our leader, has been killed just like that. Don't you think we have the right to seek justice?"
For a moment, almost everyone was arguing, and it became very noisy. The eyes of the people of the Divine City were bloodshot, and they were shouting and cursing with all their might. They wanted the Eternal Dragon City to be pressured into punishing Long Chen.
But what they didn't know was that even the Blue Fire Emperor wasn't qualified to be Long Chen's opponent. In fact, the Blue Fire Emperor also knew that Long Chen had killed City Lord Di Jun.
"You caused this trouble yourself, so you should solve it yourself."
Blue Fire Emperor said in a deep voice.
For a moment, all the spearheads were pointed at Long Chen.
"He personally admitted that he killed our City Lord Di Jun. Such arrogance and despotism completely reflects his inhumane and condescending character. This kind of person will betray us sooner or later. No matter how talented or powerful he is, what's the use? Has everyone forgotten how his father brought disaster to us?" "That's right.
"That's right. You can rely on your strength to get away scot-free, but we, the seventy-two divine cities, can have our own authority. From now on, we won't listen to the orders of the five great dragon cities. We'll let the world know that the five great dragon cities are protecting someone like Long Chen. Everyone from the Eternal Dragon City, don't disappoint us. We, the seventy-two divine descendants, have been loyal to the five great dragon cities for millions of years. Don't let this kid destroy our loyalty and passion."
It could be seen that they were forced into a corner, which was why they braced themselves and came here.
The Human Race was a fair race. Without absolute suppression of strength, they believed that the Five Major Dragon Cities would not do such a thing that would disappoint the world. Now, it seemed that countless people were waiting for the result of their revenge.
"Even if you don't punish him and kill him, you still have to help us. Bring him to our Mount Emperor Jun, and let the number one God of the human race, Di Jun, punish him. I hope that everyone in Eternal Dragon City can help us."
For a moment, everyone was waiting for the Eternal Dragon City's decision.
Long Chen asked curiously, "You said that if I go to Mount Di Jun, your God will punish me."
What he was most curious about now was what was going on with the seventy-two Gods and the Battlefield of the Gods.
"That's right, he definitely will. He even showed his spirit and told us that you are the culprit. If you are escorted there by us, I believe that the ancestor will definitely uphold justice for us." An elder in Di Jun Divine City said with righteous indignation.
"Will he show his true form and kill me?"
Long Chen couldn't help but ask.
"Of course he will. Don't doubt the power of our God. You have made a big mistake and you are still unrepentant. Our God will not let you off easily. If it wasn't for his reminder, how would we know that you are the murderer?"
Long Chen looked back and saw Yongye Dragon Emperor in the crowd. Sure enough, she was still worried about him. Long Chen asked, "Do you think that Di Jun will appear if I go there? If there is a reaction, it might be helpful for us to figure out the Battlefield of the Gods. After all, the five Dragon Emperors have been there for almost a month, and there is still no news."
"Okay, I will go with you. This matter has already spread, and it is indeed difficult to solve. It is better to go to Mount Di Jun and see if there is a turning point." Yongye Dragon Emperor said gently.
With her words, Long Chen was relieved.
Now that the seventy-two God Cities were putting pressure on Eternal Dragon City, Long Chen stopped them alone and said straightforwardly, "Okay, this was indeed done by me. Don't make things difficult for Eternal Dragon City. I will go with you to Mount Di Jun and see if your God can do anything to me."
"Heresy, heresy."
Many old men were so angry that their hair stood on end. Of course, they were still very excited that Long Chen could surrender.
"This kid thinks too highly of himself and doesn't know the power of the God Spirits. This is a good chance to teach him a painful lesson and even kill this monster."
Everyone couldn't help but feel happy as they stared at Long Chen.
"Kid, let's go."
Their whole team was shouting.
Long Chen was very straightforward and didn't seem nervous at all. He held Li Xuanji's slender hand and headed in the direction of Mount Di Jun. The City Lords of the seventy-two God Cities hurriedly followed. On Eternal Dragon City's side, Dragon Emperor Yongye instructed Blue Fire Emperor to bring a group of people to follow Long Chen in the open, while Dragon Emperor Yongye hid in the dark.
Of course, she was worried about Long Chen going out alone. Even if it was a little ridiculous that Di Jun had appeared, the Black Hell Emperor could appear by Long Chen's side at any time. He couldn't be careless. Now, Yongye Dragon Emperor could be considered to be protecting Long Chen.
This team was not fast and would probably take some time to reach Mount Di Jun.
Blue Fire Emperor kept a straight face and followed behind the team with a few other experts from Eternal Dragon City. A few City Lords surrounded him and cursed Long Chen in front of him.
"I believe that even if he doesn't dare to go to Mount Di Jun to receive the punishment of the God Spirits, Blue Fire Emperor will definitely punish him."
"That's right. Although potential and talent are scary, the most important thing is to have a kind heart. This Long Chen is too sinister and will definitely cause great trouble in the future. I, City Lord Di Jun, am probably the first one. I really hope that my ancestor can really show his spirit and kill him in one go."
Their incessant chatter annoyed Blue Fire Emperor.
Thousands of meters ahead, Long Chen walked at the front and no one dared to approach him. However, the hidden Yongye Dragon Emperor was beside him and seemed to be talking to him.
"Yongye values him so much and the other Dragon Emperors are also paying more and more attention to him. Even my father can let go of his anger towards Long Qinglan and no longer target this guy. In time, when he really becomes the Massacre Dragon Emperor, I'm afraid that I can only swallow my anger in front of him, just like how I faced Long Qinglan back then..."
He was a very proud person but had encountered such a demonic existence twice in a row. Of course, he was in a bad mood. Even Yongye Dragon Emperor had never spoken to him so intimately...
"Forget it, forget it. Let's do whatever we want. Now that such a huge change has occurred in the Battlefield of the Deities, and the transformation of the Black Hell Emperor is so shocking, the fifteen Dragon Emperors are simply frightened. They have a feeling that a great calamity is about to befall them.
The Blue Fire Emperor sighed in his heart.
He continued to walk forward. At this moment, something strange attracted him from behind. Someone was calling him. The Blue Fire Emperor said to the people beside him, "You guys go ahead first. I'll catch up in a while and settle some things."
After saying that, he left the group and walked towards the back. Looking back, Yongye Dragon Emperor didn't notice him either.
The Blue Fire Emperor crossed a few mountains and came to a deep stream. He walked towards the depths. He had the Chaos Green Fire. Although he didn't show it much, everywhere he went, the surrounding flowers and trees would wither imperceptibly.
He stopped at the deepest part of the stream and said in a deep voice, "I'm here. Come out. No matter who you are, don't hide."
Just as he finished speaking, a black shadow appeared in front of him. That black shadow said, "Big Brother, it's me, Chen Ting."
Hearing this voice and seeing this black shadow, the eyes of the Blue Fire Emperor instantly burned with green divine flames.
