Mortal Sword Intent.
Lingxi let go of the Lingsu Dual Swords and used her fingers to receive Di Yao's Mortal Sword Intent attack.
At this moment, she was very similar to the crazy Long Chen when he was cultivating.
After being killed once for no reason, she didn't want to experience the same thing again. Hence, there was only one path in front of her, and that was to become truly strong. It wasn't the strength that Long Chen helped her create.
Long Chen was very hardworking. It could be said that the reason why she could reach her current realm at this age was largely due to Long Chen. However, he still wasn't the strongest in the Myriad Worlds. There were still things that he couldn't do anything about.
Only by becoming strong could he move forward with peace of mind.
Hence, she was very envious of Soyeon. She could suddenly possess such immense power and fight alongside Mo Xiaolang.
Of course, she wasn't jealous because Soyeon's power was due to her many hardships. She deserved it. Only by experiencing hardships could she see the true beauty of the rainbow.
Her heart was already incomparably strong.
Long Chen didn't dare to look at the scene on her side.
Lingxi was probably his greatest weakness in this life. He could tolerate himself risking his life for her, but he couldn't bear to see her risking her life. Just like back then in the Battlefield of Gods, that battle where only one out of ten could survive, he was extremely worried.
Fifteen minutes passed. Thirty minutes.
As expected, she was injured. Previously, she had to rely on the Spiritual Sword and Plain Sword to block Di Yao. Naturally, it was very difficult for her now.
Fortunately, Long Chen's flame of life was protecting her at all times, giving her endless vitality. Although it was a little painful, it was definitely not life-threatening.
Obviously, Celestial Empress Ling Su wouldn't let her die.
After a battle, Lingxi didn't know how she lasted until the end.
She had no chance to retaliate at all. Her entire body was under Di Yao's control. Di Yao's wooden sword was connected to heaven and earth. What was terrifying was not the sword, but the indescribable sword intent within the sword, and the rules that were difficult to understand.
Lingxi, like all the other Dragon Emperor, was now stuck on the border of becoming a god. They did not have Long Chen's faith, nor did they have Mo Xiaolang's talent. Becoming a god might be difficult, but they did not know where those Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals came from and how they became gods.
"How do you feel?"
The thrilling battle had finally ended. Long Chen heaved a sigh of relief. He knew that Lingxi had taken a big step towards success as long as she passed the first hurdle.
"It's like I've been reborn. Many difficulties suddenly become clear. Chen, my choice is right."
Even though Lingxi was exhausted, she still had a smile on her face. This was an extremely rare feeling of satisfaction and excitement. The last time she saw such excitement and joy was in the three Imperial Regions.
She had accomplished herself.
"Very good."
This was even better than Long Chen's huge breakthrough.
Their hearts were closely connected.
"She's even more excited than me. In the past, I was too quiet, and she was also very quiet. Now that I'm moving, she's mischievous."
Lingxi gently stroked her lower abdomen. There was infinite gentleness in her eyes. This was the place she had to protect no matter what kind of trap she encountered. Even though she had always been defeated, her abdomen had never been injured.
At this moment, a woman was undoubtedly soul-stirring.
Just this scene alone made Long Chen know that Di Yao would never be able to compare to Lingxi.
Rest, comprehension, and when Di Yao appeared again, she once again used her own hands to welcome the battle.
"I feel that the sword intent of the mortal world is ordinary. It's a fusion with all things in the world. You can have no sword in your hands, but you must have a sword in your heart. With a sword in your heart, everything can be used as a sword. Even a little bit of air can be condensed into a sword, possessing terrifying killing power."
Lingxi found the right direction and experienced the tribulation. At the same time, she also communicated with Long Chen. At the very least, Long Chen also had some insights in this aspect. Through this exchange, both of them could make great progress.
Time gradually passed, and Lingxi's injuries gradually decreased. One day, she would be able to rely on her fingers to defeat Di Yao. Perhaps that would be the time for her to retire.
The Godking of Hell came once and told Long Chen that he had already searched the entire world, but there was no trace of the murderer. He told Long Chen to restrain his grief.
Long Chen's eyes were bloodshot. "I'll have to trouble you, Godking. I believe that one day, he'll resurface. If there's a chance, I'll make him regret being born in this world."
The Godking of Hell saw that Qin Wentian's killing intent was still heavy, and that it was difficult for him to recover from his grief. "Don't worry, we'll continue to help you search. Of course, you can't wallow in grief and affect your cultivation."
"Don't worry."
After he left, to the gods, this period of time could be considered to have come to an end. From then on, Long Chen never took a step out of Dragon City. In fact, the gods even gradually forgot about him. Of course, there were many people who knew that Lingxi had been assassinated. In the eyes of the people, Long Chen had completely fallen silent. A genius of a generation had started to hide because of a woman, and the activities of the gods were becoming more and more obvious. This was more and more proof that this was the era of the gods.
Of course, because of Lingxi's matter, even after a few months, the five Dragon Cities were still in the range of grief. They didn't know the truth, and the Dragon Emperors also didn't come to disturb Long Chen. They understood Long Chen, so they knew what Long Chen was doing. He was preparing for revenge.
Mo Xiaolang and Soyeon were also preparing. Right now, they were Long Chen's biggest helpers. As for Kitten, he still appeared and disappeared mysteriously, looking incomparably confident and at ease. However, who knew if he had any hatred in his heart.
While Lingxi was gradually comprehending the Mortal Sword Intent, in reality, Long Chen wasn't idle either. He was familiarizing himself with his latest toy, the peerless dragon salyer.
It wasn't that easy to familiarize oneself with a Creation level God Weapon. The Three Legged Black Crow had completely submitted to Long Chen, so it naturally let go of everything and completely fused with Long Chen. After trying a few times, Long Chen realized that the Spirit Sword and the Pure Sword were not very suitable for him. Although the two Creation level God Weapons were of high grade and were once at the Primordial Origin Stage, they were actually more gentle. Fang Zheng, and Long Chen's Dao of Slaughter were somewhat different.
Although the peerless dragon salyer didn't need the two swords, they were extremely powerful, and they were even more compatible with each other. Instead, they could erupt with unimaginable power. Long Chen spent about two months to completely control the peerless dragon salyer.
Because he had lost the Spirit Sword and the Pure Sword, he had lost a portion of his battle prowess. Now, almost all of it had returned. The origin power of the Primordial Divine Dragon's Heavenly Tribulation, which was equivalent to the Creation level, collided violently with the peerless dragon salyer. He couldn't wait to kill.
Of course, for the peerless dragon salyer, he had delayed a bit of time. Next, he still focused on cultivation and welcomed the Great Tribulation of the Gods and Demons. In reality, it would be soon. At the very least, it would be within ten days, and at the very least, it would not take more than half a year.
Other than the time when he obtained the peerless dragon salyer, Long Chen had almost faded out of the eyes of all living beings.
He didn't care. He only wanted to be strong, and he only wanted revenge.
When he, Lingxi, Mo Xiaolang, and Soyeon were all improving themselves, on this day, a special guest came to the Massacre Dragon City. He didn't attract the attention of the three Dragon Emperors. He directly appeared in the Crimson Dragon Palace and appeared in front of Long Chen. This was a young expert. Long Chen opened his eyes and discovered that it was the Starry Sky Dragon, Xing Chen.
He wore a purple robe with starlight circulating on it. His black hair was faintly flickering with purple light. His eyes were like the boundless starry sky. He was tall and strong, extraordinarily handsome, and divine light shone. He was the most handsome image of a god in the hearts of all living beings, fulfilling all the fantasies that young girls had about young gods.
He came uninvited. Naturally, he had something to say. Long Chen stood up. He was in a cold mood now, so he naturally wouldn't smile. He said calmly, "You came to find me. What's the matter?"
Xing Chen looked around and wandered around Long Chen. He said a little absent-mindedly, "Is this the former holy land of the Draconic Continent, one of the five great dragon cities? There isn't a single god here. This world is really too weak."
Long Chen waited for him to say the key point.
After walking around, Xing Chen stopped in front of Long Chen. His eyes that were like the vast starry sky stared at Long Chen. He suddenly shook his head and said, "I heard about your matter. It seems that a woman and her unborn child were assassinated by a mysterious Divine King. When I first heard about this matter, I also felt that it was inconceivable. Now that such a long time has passed, I heard that you have been hiding here to cultivate. I feel that you are quite pitiful."
Long Chen didn't really like this guy's character of beating around the bush, so he said, "Xing Chen, you didn't come here to pity me. If you have something to say, just say it. I need peace and quiet."
Hearing this, Xing Chen chuckled and said, "Alright, you are frank enough. I indeed didn't come here to pity you. Isn't it just a wife and a child? A woman who isn't even a god, I reckon you wouldn't care too much about it. Maybe all of this was planned by you …"
He had violated Long Chen's taboo.
Although it seemed unintentional, what Xing Chen meant was that Lingxi and her daughter might have been killed by Long Chen himself. In fact, among the gods, this kind of speculation had already spread. Many people even believed it. There was only one reason, and that was Di Yao.
Everyone would compare Lingxi and Di Yao.
One was an ordinary woman who wasn't even a god, and the other was the daughter of the Divine Emperor Di Jun, the number one god in the Primordial Era. It was easy to imagine who had a higher status. If there was a choice, any god would choose Di Yao. Long Chen was one of the gods.
It was obvious that Di Yao had feelings for him, so it was very likely that he had made a prompt decision to kill his wife and child, and then fabricate a Divine King. Although this kind of behavior was disgusting, cruel, and deserving of disdain, if it was really their turn, they would understand. If he didn't kill his wife and child, how could he continue with Di Yao?
For a moment, killing intent flashed in Long Chen's heart.
To be honest, he also knew about this rumor. In fact, even among the living beings, this matter was being spread. Anyone who was described in such a way would be furious. But in reality, there were still many people who believed in Long Chen. For example, in the Immortal God Realm, those who knew about the story of Long Chen and Lingxi.
Of course, this also meant that there were people who believed in the rumors circulating among the gods.
After all, this was the era of the gods.
At first, Long Chen was very angry about this kind of terrible slander. He even felt countless venomous eyes scrutinizing him. In many people's hearts, he might have gone from a peerless genius, a savior, to a despicable person.
But when he told Ling Xi about this matter, Ling Xi told him not to take it to heart, because the moment she returned, all the rumors would collapse on their own. Long Chen had also thought it through. No matter how unwilling he was in his heart, for the sake of revenge, it was all worth it. So he didn't take it to heart. As a man, his heart was magnanimous. All the evil and crooked paths would naturally give way to him.
So he suppressed his killing intent and let Xingchen continue.
Seeing that he wasn't angry, Xingchen sneered in his heart. The rumors are true. I underestimated this guy. I didn't expect him to be so cruel and merciless. For a better future, he actually killed his wife and daughter. How ruthless.
