In fact, for the Ninth Prince, this Fire Refined Essence was superfluous, which was also the reason why he placed it in the study.
The reason why his heart was filled with killing intent was not because he was about to lose the Fire Refined Essence, but because Long Chen had already given him pressure.
For him, Long Chen's growth was too much. From a nobody, a character that could be easily killed, he was quickly closing in on him.
Watching Long Chen defeat Yu Chong, everyone's heart was filled with mixed feelings. The people of the Heavenly Wolf Gang, who were laughing at Long Chen just now, seemed to have been slapped by Long Chen.
The burning sensation on their faces made the anger in their hearts gradually burn.
"The weak, the timid, will only suffer endless bullying and humiliation. If I didn't take the risk to fight with this boy today, I'm afraid I would never be able to raise my head in front of these guys. But now it's different …" Long Chen thought in his heart. He removed the Dragon Soul Transformation, put away the Blue Dragon Halberd, and no longer looked at his defeated opponent, Yu Chong. Instead, he said to the Ninth Prince, "Your Highness, you are the witness. Now the battle situation should be very clear."
"Yes, you defeated Yu Chong. According to the agreement, this Fire Refined Essence belongs to you. Elder Yan, go up and take it." The Ninth Prince concealed the emotions in his heart and said with a faint smile.
Elder Yan nodded, looked at Long Chen, and then rushed up to the roof. Under the somewhat guilty eyes of the people of the Heavenly Wolf Gang, he handed the Fire Refined Essence to Long Chen.
The heat of this Fire Refined Essence was not low, and it also burst with a strong light. Long Chen hurriedly put it into his Cosmos Sack, otherwise, Lingxi's eyes might be damaged.
"Thank you, Your Highness. Also, when I go to Ni Yang's Wonderland, Lingxi and Xiao Lang can stay in Prince Yu's Mansion." After Long Chen expressed his gratitude, he suddenly said so.
"Oh."
The Ninth Prince had already known that Long Chen would not agree. After all, Long Chen had yet to truly trust him. How could he hand over the person closest to him to the Ninth Prince?
"If that's the case, then it's fine. Don't worry, Miss Lingxi is in my residence. I can assure you that she's absolutely safe," the Ninth Prince said with a smile. There was a mysterious light in his eyes.
At this moment, when the members of the Sky Wolf Gang saw that they had nothing to do, they glared at Long Chen, then left with the Ninth Prince.
"It's getting late. I'll send someone to arrange accommodations for you."
After the people from the Heavenly Wolf Gang left, the Ninth Prince made arrangements for Long Chen and Ye Zichen before leaving.
In a luxurious and cozy room, Long Chen leaned against the wall with Lingxi in his arms.
"Little Xi, are you sure you want to stay in Prince Yu's Mansion?"
Long Chen asked worriedly. Long Chen was well aware of the Ninth Prince's attitude. Placing Lingxi here was no different from sending a lamb into a tiger's den. Previously, he had agreed to the Ninth Prince's request purely because Lingxi had hinted from the side. "Chen, you have no confidence in me.
"Big Brother Chen, don't you have any confidence in me? You're merely at the sixth level of the Heavenly River Tier. What can you do to me? Moreover, don't you have Little Wolf? Moreover, even if I can't preserve my life, I'll just abandon this physical body and return to the Ling Xi Sword. In any case, you're going to obtain the Nine Heavens Celestial Fruit for me. This mortal body is filled with many troublesome matters, so it's fine if I don't want it," Ling Xi said mischievously.
"That's indeed the case. However, it wasn't easy for me to obtain this Mysterious Heaven Jade Lotus, and I could be intimate with you for a while. It would be a pity if I lost it."
Only now did Long Chen understand Lingxi's thoughts. The Ninth Prince had his eyes on Lingxi. However, he didn't use extreme methods like directly killing Long Chen and forcefully occupying Lingxi. This meant that a proud person like him wouldn't stoop to such a thing. What he wanted was Lingxi's heart, and Lingxi's heart was already with Long Chen. How could he snatch it away?
Even if he went crazy in the end, Lingxi could simply abandon the Mysterious Heaven Jade Lotus and return to Lingxi's sword. There was no one here who could touch the Lingxi's sword. "There's nothing we can do about that.
Previously, we didn't think that this Ninth Prince was a bad person. It's only today that he accidentally exposed himself. If we had known that Xiao Lang and I would be staying on the Golden Fish Island, we wouldn't have come in. Now that we've been targeted by him, with his ability, he'll be able to find us no matter where we go. We might as well just stay here and wait for you to return with good news. "Lingxi was worried that Long Chen would be under a lot of pressure, so she carefully analyzed the situation for him.
Their relationship had already reached an incredibly solid level since they had come from Baiyang Town.
After listening to Lingxi's words, Long Chen's heart was very clear. He was no longer worried about the things that he was originally worried about. Anyway, no matter what, it was impossible for the Ninth Prince to have his way, so there was nothing for him to be afraid of.
As long as he obtained the Nine Heavens Celestial Fruit, he could go far away. When that time came, he would be strong enough. If the Ninth Prince tried to stop him, he could just stab him to death with his halberd.
"Ninth Prince, oh, Ninth Prince, you let me become a Divine Guard of the Divine Realm and gave me the opportunity to go to Ni Yang's Divine Realm. If you're really a good person, I'd be willing to be friends with you and repay you in the future. However, since you've set your eyes on my treasure, then don't blame me for being cruel and merciless."
Long Chen had never been a person who would allow others to bully him. Today, he was living under someone else's roof, so he endured it. However, if he was given the opportunity to soar to success, regardless of his identity, Long Chen would definitely take revenge.
Lingxi was the biggest taboo in Long Chen's heart. Other men, let alone touching her, even if Long Chen just had the slightest idea, he would directly kill them. However, the Ninth Prince actually dared to do such a thing, which was really a taboo for Long Chen. Therefore, in his heart, Long Chen had already set a death sentence for him.
"Little Xi, you and Xiao Lang just stay here obediently. I'll soon obtain the Nine Heavens Celestial Fruit, then I'll take you away from here. Moreover, with the speed of my cultivation, at that time, there might not be anyone who can stop me." Just from inheriting the Inheritance Blood Essence, Long Chen had become very confident.
"Chen, I know, you're really long-winded, just like an auntie." Lingxi made a funny face.
"Good, Lingxi, you're the auntie. No, I have to turn you into an auntie." Long Chen's mood became a lot more relaxed, and he laughed mischievously.
"How?" Lingxi asked foolishly.
"Just watch and you'll know."
Long Chen let out a strange laugh, and carried her soft body horizontally. With a whoosh, he moved to the side of the bed, then placed Lingxi down, opened his arms, and threw Lingxi into his embrace.
"What are you doing, Chen? You're so heavy."
Feeling Long Chen's warm aura, Lingxi was a little flustered, and her face flushed red. She hurriedly stretched out her hands, wanting to push Long Chen away, but with her mortal strength, she couldn't move Long Chen at all.
Lingxi's body had the fragrance of a lotus. For Long Chen, this was the source of temptation. At this moment, looking at the girl in his embrace who was scared and shy, and the faint mist in her eyes, as well as the faint sound of her breathing, all of this caused Long Chen's blood to boil.
"Lingxi, I want to ask you something."
Long Chen knew that Lingxi was a very traditional person, and he didn't dare to do anything that would leave a shadow in her heart. After all, the current her didn't seem to understand anything.
"What is it?"
As long as she was pressed by Long Chen and felt his warmth, Lingxi felt her whole body heat up. This kind of feeling made her a little eager, but also a little uncomfortable. Her whole heart was hanging in the air, unable to go up or down.
"When have you decided to consummate your marriage with me?" Long Chen asked shamelessly.
Lingxi had occasionally heard about consummating their marriage. It seemed that after consummating their marriage, she would transform from a girl to a woman. Lingxi roughly knew what Long Chen was referring to.
"Bastard, scoundrel, wait until you're dead." Long Chen's words scared her, and she pushed him even harder.
Sure enough, she still couldn't accept it …
"I'll die now."
Long Chen laughed and was about to scare Lingxi when Xiao Lang walked in from the outside. Long Chen was shocked and jumped out of the bed at lightning speed. He looked at Xiao Lang awkwardly, and his old face was red.
The wolf cub stayed where it was. Its dark eyes widened as if it had been startled. Then, it immediately turned around and ran away with a whoosh.
"Chen, you go out."
This scene was seen by Xiao Lang, and Long Chen was a little embarrassed, let alone Lingxi. Seeing that she was a little angry, Long Chen quickly comforted her and ran out.
Although Lingxi had changed a little more mature, she was still a little scary when she got angry.
When he found Xiao Lang outside, Long Chen pretended that nothing had happened. He looked at Xiao Lang for a while and asked, "You've swallowed the fire essence and reached the fourth grade of the earth rank."
Xiao Lang nodded.
After getting confirmation, Long Chen was a little stunned, and then he sighed in his heart. No wonder the Burning Heaven Demon Emperor praised Xiao Lang's talent so much. As long as a demonic beast like the Sun Devouring Demonic Wolf had enough fire-attribute treasures, its growth rate would be extremely fast. It was hard for ordinary demonic beasts to advance, but when it advanced, it was even more terrifying than a human.
Sitting on a green stone, Long Chen looked at the starry sky and said, "Tomorrow, I'll enter the Ni Yang Immortal Realm. You stay by Lingxi's side at all times and protect her. When I get the Nine Heavens Immortal Fruit, we'll find a place to cultivate, and when we're strong enough, we'll come back to avenge you. What do you think?"
Xiao Lang nodded, and his eyes were filled with gratitude.
It should be known that he was going to face the imperial family, and Long Chen did not hesitate to say that he would help him take revenge.
"We'll cultivate the Divine Fire Clone together, and I succeeded first. I'll tell you my cultivation experience now, and if there's anything good in the future, we brothers will also cultivate together."
Xiao Lang might really have the talent to cultivate battle skills. Although the meridians of wolves were different from those of humans, they were also spiritual creatures born from heaven and earth. Xiao Lang was originally a human, and he might really succeed after some exploration.
In the process of communicating with the wolf cub, Long Chen continued to condense the True Fire Seed. For him, the most difficult part of the Divine Fire Doppelganger was condensing the first doppelganger. Next, he only needed to repeat the original process.
After accompanying Lingxi for a night, the next day, Long Chen set out on the road to the Ni Yang Immortal Realm.
