"Little Xi, do you see it? Above Bi Yang Imperial City, there is a sea of people, they are all looking at us."
Long Chen raised his head and smiled faintly. At this time, because of Long Chen's appearance, the gates of Bi Yang Imperial City were already closed. Bi Yang Imperial City was facing a formidable enemy. Outside the imperial city, there was naturally an empty space. Only Long Chen and Xiao Lang's silhouettes were particularly obvious here.
At this time, Xiao Lang was lying on the ground, looking at the direction of the city wall. Finally, there was a chance for revenge. Xiao Lang was very excited. After enduring the hatred for almost ten years, today, he finally had the chance to take revenge.
For Xiao Lang, the extermination of his family was a blood feud that must be paid with blood. Only then could Sword Emperor atone for his crime. Xiao Lang had always been very kind. Sword Emperor killed his entire family. Now, what he wanted to do was to kill Sword Emperor alone.
And this time, Long Chen and Xiao Lang were fighting side by side. If Xiao Lang relied on himself, it was impossible for him to be Sword Emperor's opponent.
Long Chen looked at the people on the city walls from below. The countless people on the city walls were also trying their best to size up Long Chen, this legendary figure. He was still quite a distance away from the city walls. Only those with strong martial arts and keen eyesight could see his appearance clearly.
"It turns out that Long Chen is really so young. He is simply a legend of our Cangyang Kingdom. Unfortunately, he is from Heavenly Devil Palace, he is against the royal family …"
"That's right. How can a person who can kill the fourth prince, Lin Zichen, be simple? I heard that he also killed Lord Sword Demon. Two of the three great experts of the royal family have already died in his hands. Sword Emperor will be next."
"Are you joking? Sword Emperor will be next. Do you think His Majesty Sword Emperor will lose to Long Chen?"
"It was a slip of the tongue, a slip of the tongue," the man said with an embarrassed smile before continuing to discuss with the people beside him.
Amidst everyone's anticipation, the city gate finally opened with a bang. A group of people appeared in the city gate. These were the remaining experts of the Cangyang Kingdom. The Sword Emperor with golden pupils was standing in front of them. When the crowd saw the Sword Emperor, they all cheered with all their might.
Of course, they didn't necessarily support the Sword Emperor's rule. It was just that they were in the Imperial City now, so they naturally had to stand on the Imperial City's side. Of course, if Long Chen won, they wouldn't be sad. Only when their lives were truly threatened would they truly feel threatened.
As soon as the city gates opened, Long Chen saw two rays of golden light land on his body. Immediately, Long Chen felt as if there was a sword lightly stabbing into his skin, making him feel incredibly uncomfortable and even a bit painful. This was the Sword Emperor's gaze.
From afar, Long Chen could already see his golden eyes.
"Little Xi, do you see his eyes? They seem different from that night."
Long Chen asked in confusion. He clearly remembered that the Sword Emperor's eyes were pure black, and his temperament didn't seem to be as fierce and sharp as it was now.
"Strange, truly strange." Ling Xi hurriedly shook her head and said with a puzzled expression.
"This Sword Emperor's soul doesn't feel very complete. It's like he's missing half of it. I don't know where it went. I remember that when I saw him that night, I felt the same way. But at that time, the part of his soul that was missing seemed to be the part that is occupying the Sword Emperor's body now." Ling Xi said. She was almost confused.
Long Chen didn't understand at all.
"Since you can't understand, my mission is to get rid of him. Little Xi, I'll definitely keep my word. From now on, I'll fulfill my promise." Thinking of the oath from before, Long Chen was filled with fighting spirit.
"Oh …" Now that Long Chen was here, Lingxi knew that there was no turning back. She could only go along with Long Chen's crazy decision for now. After all, what Long Chen said made sense. If he continued to live with the current Lingxi for the rest of his life, it wouldn't be Long Chen's style to drag out an ignoble existence.
However, if he wanted to complete the final step, it would be extremely difficult. Ling Xi knew that Long Chen's strength was progressing very quickly. To be able to reach such a realm in a short year, he could already be considered a top-notch genius. However, Long Chen's starting point was simply too hasty. If he wanted to reach that step, there should be no hope.
Lingxi knew that there was a gap between them, so she felt it even more deeply.
However, after Long Chen faced the final battle, she didn't dare to say anything and only silently watched Long Chen fight. This time, the opponent was the Sword Emperor, the strongest opponent that Long Chen had ever fought against. Compared to the injured Darkmoon Tiger King, the Sword Emperor was simply too powerful.
"You're finally coming out? You're really slow. I thought that His Majesty was sleeping in."
Even in the face of such immense pressure, Long Chen did not panic. Instead, he teased. Just this alone was enough to earn everyone's admiration.
The Sword Emperor didn't reply to Long Chen's words. He gestured for the people behind him to go back, then calmly looked at Long Chen as he walked out of the city wall. At this moment, he was about 150 meters away from Long Chen, then 100 meters, then 50 meters, and finally 20 meters. At this moment, the Sword Emperor stopped, and everyone's hearts tensed up.
This was the most impactful battle in the past ten years, and it was most likely going to happen at this moment.
Everyone couldn't help but widen their eyes, afraid that they would miss any details.
After the Sword Emperor stood still, he didn't attack. Instead, he looked up and down at Long Chen and said, "Around two months ago, I met Zhao Qingyun. I wanted to fight to the death with him, but he told me that you were my opponent. I asked him if he was joking, and he said that I trusted Zhao Qingyun's words, so I waited until today.
"You killed two of my sons and one of my younger brothers, but I didn't touch your family or your sect because I value your potential. I hope that you won't lose too quickly today. If I don't enjoy myself to my heart's content, I'm afraid that I'll kill your entire family …"
Long Chen earnestly listened to the Sword Emperor's words.
"Don't worry, I'll definitely let you die a satisfying death. For this moment today, I've already prepared for two months. I believe that you won't be disappointed." In front of the Sword Emperor, Long Chen spoke in a tone that was neither servile nor overbearing.
Their conversation was exceptionally bright in the vast wilderness. Everyone could clearly hear their opponent. The Sword Emperor valued Long Chen a lot, which was why he said such a thing.
Long Chen knew that the Sword Emperor's hatred for Long Chen was almost the same as Xiao Lang's hatred for the Sword Emperor.
"I heard that you have a brother from the Mo Family, and then his entire family was killed. I looked into it, and it should be that Mo Xiaolang. After entering the Burning Heaven Secret Realm, he never came out again. The only remaining member of the Mo Family is actually dead."
At this point, the Sword Emperor was a little emotional. When Long Chen saw the indifferent expression on his face, he instantly became a little angry.
"Isn't it the same for your royal family? After you died, apart from Lin Batian, the rest are just cats and dogs. I can't be bothered to kill them. Do you want to know how Lin Cangtian died? He was burned alive by me. Do you know how Lin Zichen died? He was sliced into pieces by my sword." Long Chen said coldly.
The Sword Emperor's body trembled. Then, he looked at Long Chen with an unconcealable killing intent.
"What a strange golden eye …" Long Chen was secretly shocked.
Their conversation was clearly heard by the others. When they saw the killing intent in the Sword Emperor's eyes, they all knew that the battle was about to begin.
Whoosh.
The Sword Emperor only took one step forward. Suddenly, a whirlwind swept towards Long Chen. The strong wind whistled, and the solid soil of the Imperial City was like the yellow sand outside of Jiang City in the north. It was lifted up by the Sword Emperor's power.
"Xiao Lang."
Long Chen called out. Then, as usual, he instantly separated from Xiao Lang. Against a super expert like the Sword Emperor, Long Chen had no choice but to use all his trump cards. Of course, the most important ones were the Dragon Soul Transformation and the Great Skill of Demon Seed in the Dao Heart. When the two enhancements were completed, a majestic power flowed through Long Chen's body. The turbulent Genuine Qi flowed through the 18 galaxies in his body. The Genuine Qi flowed more smoothly, and Long Chen could release more Genuine Qi.
At this time, Xiao Lang also used the two enhancements of the Great Skill of Demon Seed in the Dao Heart, which allowed his demonic power to reach a level close to the Reaching Heaven State. This meant that Xiao Lang could control more Nine Serenities Demonic Ancestral Fire.
The changes in Long Chen and Xiao Lang made the Sword Emperor, who was originally calm, sigh in admiration. First, Long Chen's Dragon Soul Transformation surprised the Sword Emperor.
"I've long heard that your Beast Soul Transformation is very nature-defying. I didn't expect it to be at such a level. Together with the Great Skill of Demon Seed in the Dao Heart, your Genuine Qi is almost the same as a Reaching Heaven State warrior. No wonder Zi Chen was defeated by you. No wonder Zhao Qingyun said that you are my opponent." The Sword Emperor's voice trembled slightly.
Then, he saw Xiao Lang's Great Skill of Demon Seed in the Dao Heart, which made him even more stunned.
"What? A demonic beast can actually cultivate the Great Skill of Demon Seed in the Dao Heart? What kind of monster is this?"
This was almost beyond the Sword Emperor's common sense. He was confident in his knowledge, but when the demonic beast used the Great Skill of Demon Seed in the Dao Heart, the Sword Emperor was speechless.
The people on the city wall also heard the Sword Emperor's words.
"Did I hear it wrong? Long Chen actually has the Genuine Qi of the Reaching Heaven State. That demonic beast can actually cultivate the Great Skill of Demon Seed in the Dao Heart. Oh my god, what kind of monster is this?"
"Calm down. This is just the surface. We'll just have to see their real strength. Although the Sword Emperor is shocked, he isn't afraid. This means that even if Long Chen is like this, he can still defeat Long Chen."
