Because Dongfang Xuanxiao liked peace and quiet, the bamboo garden was far away from the other buildings in Heavenly Devil Palace. Therefore, he knew that no one would come to their rescue at this critical moment.
"Little Xuan, I'm sorry. I'm useless. In the end, I couldn't escape this disaster. Maybe I'm not the right person for you, but I wasted so many years of your youth. I deserve to die." Xuan Xiao's face was full of pain, which made people feel sorry for him.
"Big Brother Xuanxiao …"
Tears welled up in Xuan Ke's eyes. She held Xuanxiao's hand tightly and looked at He Tian with a choked voice. "After being trapped for twenty years, I'm already very satisfied to be able to meet you again and be with you for such a long time. Today, I'll die with you. I won't be humiliated. It's just a pity that this child will die before he's even born …"
Her words made Xuanxiao's heart ache even more.
"Don't, he definitely won't dare to touch you. Ming 'er, I'll stop him even if it's just for a while."
Dongfang Xuanxiao's eyes were cold. Although he was much weaker than He Tian, Dongfang Xuanxiao's aura was definitely not inferior to his. He Tian felt a little uncomfortable when he saw Dongfang Xuanxiao's fearless gaze. He spat on the ground and sneered, "Not bad, I'm indeed very touched. However, I've never believed in such things. You're just a piece of trash. Do you dare to fight me? Come and try."
He Tian knew that time was of the essence. As he spoke, he walked toward Dongfang Xuanxiao. A heavy pressure was exerted on Dongfang Xuanxiao's body. The blade that was dripping with blood emitted a cold light that dazzled Dongfang Xuanxiao.
An unstoppable killing intent approached Dongfang Xuanxiao step by step.
Dongfang Xuanxiao clenched his teeth. He tried to think of a solution, but he knew that any solution would be useless in the face of such a huge gap in strength.
"No, I can't let Ming 'er die with me and our child. I can't let him die before he's even born. But god, what should I do? What do you want me to do? You've teased me for twenty years just to be with Ming' er. Don't tell me that I don't have any rights at all."
Dongfang Xuanxiao breathed heavily as his eyes gradually turned bloodshot.
"Big Brother Xuanxiao …" Xuan Ke's heart twitched at the sight of Dongfang Xuanxiao. Her fingernails were about to sink into his flesh.
"Ke 'er, I'll only ask one thing of you in this lifetime. Can you agree to it?" Dongfang Xuanxiao whispered in Xuan Ke's ears.
"Don't say anymore. I can promise you anything, but even if I die today, I will stand by your side and face this with you. I am selfish to my child, but I think he will forgive me." Zhao Xuanqi's eyes were filled with tears …
Dongfang Xuanxiao was thoroughly disappointed by the stubborn Xuan Ke and the approaching killing intent from He Tian.
Strength. Everything was strength. Xuan Ke had been trapped in Star Demon Prison for twenty years because he didn't have strength. Now, because of his strength, they had to die in front of him.
"Ahhh!" Dongfang Xuanxiao punched his own chest.
At this moment, Dongfang Xuanxiao stared at He Tian and said in a low voice, "If there is a next life, I believe that my efforts will not be any less than Chen 'er's."
"Chen 'er, is that the Long Chen who rose to fame in Sky Demon Palace and caused an uproar in the Cangyang Nation? He is indeed a talent. You are really lucky to have a godson like him. Unfortunately, he won't be able to save you tonight."
He Tian laughed heartily as he raised the Blood Sea Saber in his hand. In the next moment, he would be able to cut Dongfang Xuanxiao in half.
At this moment, a cold voice sounded behind He Tian.
"You are wrong. I can save him tonight."
This cold voice clearly came from the young man. Even though he was so close, He Tian still couldn't find any trace of him. This caused He Tian to be greatly shocked. He hurriedly turned his head back, his aura exploding out, his face filled with shock.
When he turned around, he was shocked to see a tall and handsome young man with long black hair standing behind him. In his hand, there was a sword that contained faint starlight.
"Long Chen, why are you here?"
He Tian's eyes were filled with astonishment. Before coming here, Yang Danfeng had already assured him that no one would show up. So what was going on with Long Chen before him?
Dongfang Xuanxiao and Xuan Ke felt as if they were dreaming when they saw Long Chen. Xuan Ke almost fainted. Fortunately, Dongfang Xuanxiao was there to support her. At this moment, both of their eyes were filled with tears. This time, they had walked past the gates of hell. Only the two of them knew how dangerous it was.
They had waited for twenty years for this day. Just when everything was about to be destroyed, they didn't expect that Long Chen would appear. Dongfang Xuanxiao and Xuan Ke had enough confidence in Long Chen. Therefore, they knew that they would definitely escape death this time.
The excitement in their hearts was naturally indescribable.
He Tian could even sense an aura from Long Chen that scared even himself. At this critical moment, he had already made up his mind. He would kill Dongfang Xuanxiao in the shortest time possible and then escape.
He was at the seventh level of the Heavenly River Tier, while Long Chen was only at the sixth level of the Heavenly River Tier. Of course, he also knew that Long Chen had defeated Yang Jun. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so afraid of Long Chen.
He Tian turned around again, preparing to kill Dongfang Xuanxiao with a single slash. However, he didn't expect that a huge wolf's face would appear in front of him. Then, raging flames surged towards him. He Tian was shocked and used all his strength to barely dodge the flames.
Xiao Lang stood guard beside Dongfang Xuanxiao and Xuan Ke, smacking his lips in disdain. If it weren't for Long Chen's instructions, he would have killed this guy just now.
At this time, there was only one word in He Tian's mind, and that was to escape. After dodging Xiao Lang's flames, he leaped up from the ground and was about to leave quickly. However, what shocked him was that the figure of the youth suddenly appeared in front of him.
Long Chen's eyes were a little red. He looked coldly at He Tian and the Blood Sea Saber in his hand. He couldn't imagine what would have happened if it weren't for Murong Yu's reminder today that would make Long Chen regret his actions.
Long Chen almost regretted it for the rest of his life. Although He Tian didn't succeed, the hatred in Long Chen's heart didn't lessen because of this.
"Since you're here, then don't leave …" Long Chen's faint voice made He Tian especially uncomfortable. A crazed look gradually appeared in his eyes, and he roared, "Fine, since you don't want me to leave, then I'll kill you before I leave. I don't believe that I, a seventh level Heavenly River Tier, can't defeat a sixth level Heavenly River Tier like you."
He Tian was driven to desperation.
Long Chen narrowed his eyes.
"If it were any other time, I would still be in the mood to toy with you, but today, you'd better die first."
At this moment, He Tian roared, and the Blood Sea Saber in his hand slashed out a ferocious saber light, slashing towards Long Chen.
Long Chen was directly cut in half.
When the saber light slashed out, He Tian suddenly discovered that he had cut Long Chen in half. He was extremely excited, and thought to himself, 'As expected, your father is trash, and your son is also trash.'
He was just about to kill Dongfang Xuanxiao and escape, but he didn't expect that at this moment, he would suddenly hear such a voice.
"Who were you attacking just now?"
This voice practically rang out next to He Tian's ears, and He Tian's hair stood on end. At this critical moment, he was shocked, and just as he was about to turn around and attack, the tip of a sword suddenly pierced through his chest. The tip of the sword protruded out of his body for a full half a meter.
At this moment, there was a drop of blood on the Star Sword, which was dotted with specks of starlight.
Only then did He Tian discover that his heart had been pierced through.
With a whoosh, Long Chen pulled out the Star Sword from He Tian's back. At this moment, He Tian wasn't completely dead. He turned around and looked at Long Chen in disbelief, and stammered, "Brat, I … didn't I kill you?"
"Don't you know that the Sky Demon Palace has Traceless Specters?" Long Chen directly cut He Tian's throat with his sword.
Only then did He Tian's eyes widen as he collapsed.
Even in death, he didn't understand why he was so much stronger than Long Chen, but in front of Long Chen, he couldn't fight back at all.
Dongfang Xuanxiao and Xuan Ke stared blankly at this scene. After seeing He Tian's corpse stir up a lot of dust on the ground, they finally admitted that Long Chen's battle prowess had far surpassed He Tian, who was at the seventh level of the Heavenly River Tier.
Dongfang Xuanxiao was extremely excited to have escaped death, and he hurriedly said, "Chen 'er, it's all thanks to you today …"
"Today's matter isn't over yet."
Before Dongfang Xuanxiao could finish, Long Chen suddenly interrupted him, and then disappeared before Dongfang Xuanxiao's eyes in the blink of an eye. Xiao Lang howled and quickly followed.
Dongfang Xuanxiao and Xuan Ke looked at each other, not understanding what Long Chen was doing. At this moment, they suddenly heard an earth-shattering shout from Long Chen.
"Yang Danfeng, are you still trying to escape?"
Dongfang Xuanxiao was stunned by Dongfang Xuanxiao's shout.
"Yang Danfeng."
"Big Brother Xuan Xiao, it must be Yang Danfeng. I was wondering why Heavenly Devil Palace was so heavily guarded, yet He Tian was able to come here. It must have been someone from Heavenly Devil Palace who let him in. A few days ago, Chen 'er obtained the Great Magic of Dao Heart Demonic Seed. Yang Danfeng must be holding a grudge against him. It's very likely that He Tian was the one who let him in."
"Oh no, if Chen 'er knows the truth, he'll definitely kill Yang Danfeng." Dongfang Xuanxiao, who was familiar with Long Chen's personality, instantly paled.
