Seeing that Lingxi was no longer distressed, Long Chen finally felt a little more at ease in his heart.
What he said was naturally true, but in fact, he was also trying to coax the little girl. After all, there were no such coincidences in this world. If Long Chen couldn't stop Mo Xiaolang, he wouldn't be able to deal with the God-level Primeval Troll, and how could he survive on the Demon Star.
He said this to give Lingxi hope, to give her a chance to work hard. That way, she might have less time to worry about Long Chen's life, and more time to inherit the Spirit Venerable's inheritance. If Long Chen died, she would have the power to protect herself before the doomsday, and Long Chen would feel more at ease.
He didn't dare to say that if he died, Lingxi would find a way to escape. He had to be confident in front of this woman, or she would collapse.
As the sun set, Long Chen hugged her, feeling the warmth she brought him.
At that moment, as a man of character, he couldn't help but shed two lines of tears.
Back then, when the two of them were similar for the first time, he was still a ruffian with an eccentric personality, and she was just a cute little princess who encountered a disaster and came to the human world by chance. The two of them met under the arrangement of fate, and fell in love. Every step they took was so touching, so difficult, but so profound.
On that day, when she was taken away, Long Chen cried bitterly, as if he had lost his life.
In those ten years, he went through many hardships and killed many people. He rushed to the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace, took her away, and made her his wife.
Today, he was about to become a father, and stood at the peak of the world. He thought he could give her the happiness of a family, accompany her to have children, and share happiness with her. But he didn't expect the demons to cause chaos, and the world to die. He had to go deep into the trap to find his brother, and fight against the most terrifying opponent. Long Chen didn't even dare to tell her that this was the most uncertain time. He didn't even have a tenth of the chance to defeat Ling Huang in the Spirit Zun Residence.
He had died in the hands of Ling Huang once, and there was a ninety percent chance that he would not be able to return this time.
As a husband, as a father, the torment in his heart was not something an ordinary person could understand. Fortunately, the current her was incomparably obedient and sensible, gentle and moving. She would only bring strength to Long Chen and would never drag him down, nor would she make him unable to make a choice between the common people and a beauty.
"Little Xi, I promise you, this is the last time. If I can come back safely, if I can solve this crisis, I will never leave your side again. I will definitely accompany you, waiting for our child to be born. Let him call me. This is my promise. I rarely make promises in my life, but this is the most serious one I've ever made. I swear to you that I will definitely come back."
Wiping away the tears at the corner of his eyes, Long Chen wiped away all pretentiousness. He used the most solemn voice to say these words to Lingxi. This was his belief. He knew that at some point in his life, even if he had to let down the world, he could not let down this woman who loved him so deeply.
"I believe in you."
Lingxi used her slender fingers to gently wipe away the traces of tears at the corner of his eyes. She squeezed out a rare smile, that kind of smile could make people forget all their troubles. Seeing her smile and hearing her words without hesitation, Long Chen solemnly told himself that this promise, he had to fulfill it. This would be his mission in his heart.
He gave the rainbow-colored pendant and the Divine Spirit Spike to Lingxi. In the future, with Yang You protecting her, Long Chen was very relieved. Yang You regarded these two young people as more important than his own life. With her here, nothing would happen to Lingxi.
They stayed in place, waiting for the arrival of the main group. Long Chen let her bury her head in his chest, letting her listen to his heartbeat.
Time quietly passed like this.
After a short period of peace, the most intense war would soon come.
Soon, the main group arrived, and Long Chen followed them to the Devouring Dragon City. Then, from the Devouring Lingxi Formation of the Devouring Dragon City, they all moved to the Slaughter Dragon City. After leaving the Slaughter Dragon City, most of the Dragon Warriors of the five major Dragon Cities followed Long Chen out with the experts.
Along the way, countless people looked at this young man who was far younger than them, but was already the strongest in the world with the most respectful eyes.
Because the northern territory was destroyed in the last war, the Slaughter Dragon City was very close to the starry sky. Not long after they came out of the Slaughter Dragon City, they almost reached the northern starry sky. Soon, Long Chen and the experts of the five clans, as well as more than 100,000 Dragon Warriors, reached the edge of the starry sky.
Here, Long Chen stopped.
It was time to separate and complete his mission. Long Chen didn't want to stay too long, because that would make him hesitate. He had already said what he needed to say to Lingxi. As for Yang You and the others, they definitely knew what to do after he entered the Devil Star.
At this time, more than 40 peak experts were beside Long Chen. Lingxi pushed to Yang You's side, silently looking at Long Chen with the most affectionate eyes. Yang You held her hand, her palm was already sweating.
Long Chen said to the experts, "Seniors, thank you for seeing me off. Let's stop here. If we go any further, it will make my heart uneasy. Please go back first and make arrangements. I will do my best and not let you down."
At this time, even the peak experts were trembling nervously. The closer they got to the Devil Star, the more terrifying the sense of danger they felt. Last time, Primeval Troll was only a will clone, but he almost destroyed the Eternal God Realm. Who knew if the Eternal God Realm could even resist for a quarter of an hour when they really came out.
And Long Chen was the one who needed to enter the Devil Star.
However, he was calm and not nervous at all. His courage was unparalleled in the world, and this made everyone admire and respect this young man even more. They even regarded him as their faith.
At least in the eyes of the Dragon Warriors, Long Chen was their faith. Countless people's eyes were filled with tears, tears of passion.
However, at this time, Dragon Emperor Yongye said softly, "It's not time yet. Before you go, you have to complete a very important matter."
Long Chen was startled. He did not expect that there would be something else.
"What is it?"
At this time, the Great Demon Lord, the Ocean Emperor, and the Holy Sorcerers smiled. They led the others away from Long Chen, and soon, Lingxi was also brought away by Yang You. Only Long Chen and the 15 Dragon Emperors were still standing in the same place.
Long Chen did not know what was going on.
At this time, the 15 Dragon Emperors spread out and surrounded him.
The Dragon Warriors cheered. They could roughly guess what kind of moment this would be.
At this time, the first Dragon Emperor of the Slaughter City, Cruel Blood Dragon Emperor said in a clear voice, "Long Chen, you have met the two major requirements of becoming Dragon City's Titled Dragon Emperor and Dragon Emperor of Slaughter. As long as you complete the last requirement, you can become the fourth Titled Dragon Emperor of the Human Race since ancient times. You will become the ruler of the Human Race, and you will be able to command the world and the 15 Dragon Emperors."
Eternal Dragon Emperor said, "Of course, the last requirement is to have the strength to defeat the 15 Dragon Emperors."
Long Chen did not expect that they would choose this time.
He had just defeated Ling Huang.
If it were not for the Demon Star, after defeating Ling Huang, Long Chen would have slowly challenged the 15 of them. Perhaps he would not have cared about it. After all, it was just a title. If there was nothing wrong with the Eternal God Domain, he would not have cared.
But the Dragon Emperors did not think so. Before he entered the Demon Star, they wanted to complete this matter and give Long Chen a title. He was absolutely qualified to get this title.
Dragon Emperor of Slaughter.
A long time ago, Long Chen had won the hearts of the people. Even if it was not officially granted, in the eyes of everyone, he was already the Dragon Emperor of Slaughter, already the ruler.
Of course, the procedure set by the ancestors still had to be followed.
"Maybe they are afraid that I will never come back, so they want to give me an official title in the historical records."
Long Chen could not help but laugh. They really picked the right time.
And the 15 Dragon Emperors also laughed.
This was a solemn ceremony.
All the dragon martial artists were looking forward to this moment. They were looking forward to Long Chen truly inheriting his father's footsteps. After defeating Ling Huang, he would become the Eternal Dragon Emperor, reaching the pinnacle of his life.
They hoped that Long Chen would do the same.
That would depend on this battle.
The 15 Dragon Emperors did not stand on ceremony. They directly transformed into dragons at the edge of the starry sky. 15 mystical dragons stood proudly around Long Chen. These were characters that Long Chen could only look up to a long time ago. Who would have thought that they would appear before Long Chen in this form now?
Eternal Time Dragon, Emperor Blood Burial Dragon, Trillion Starfield Dragon, and so on.
They were all the most famous ultimate mystical dragons.
"Alright."
Long Chen was also filled with fighting spirit. This battle would be the greatest practice for himself. He had long been looking forward to the moment when he became the Dragon Emperor of Slaughter.
This made his blood boil, and he was filled with pride.
This was destined to be a heartwarming battle. The support and love of the older generation gave Long Chen a backing that he did not need to worry about.
Long Chen's Ancestral Dragon Mystique could restrain them even more.
When Long Chen used the Chaotic Time Reversal, the 15 Dragon Emperors seemed to have fallen into a swamp. Even the Eternal Dragon Emperor and Eternal Night Dragon Emperor, who were very familiar with time, could not do anything about it. Under such circumstances, Long Chen could only smile and take them down one by one.
This battle almost made all the dragon martial artists tear up.
They saw Long Chen's strength. They saw that each Dragon Emperor did not fight with his life on the line. They just let Long Chen pass. They respected and loved Long Chen. For him, they could not even be bothered with the Ancestral Behest.
Of course, if they really fought, one person against 15 Dragon Emperors, the outcome would still be uncertain.
In the end, the Dragon Emperors were eliminated one by one.
Until there was only Long Chen in this world.
At that time, it was as if the whole world was shouting the words "Slaughter the Dragon Emperor".
