"What's going on … Aren't you dead …" Su Xue wiped her tears and said while choking with sobs.
"This is a secret. But why are you crying? Can't you bear to see me die? Why did you want to kill me yesterday?" Long Chen joked.
"I'm ignoring you."
Su Xue bit her lips and glared at Long Chen. After hearing Long Chen's joke, she felt much better.
"Since we've already obtained victory, our journey here is over. Let's return to the Cyanwood Heavenly City now," Seeing them joking around, Bai Lan chuckled and said.
At this moment, the three major powers had nothing to say to each other. The victory had been decided. The Yellow Emperor's Key belonged to the Demon Race. Of course, the Yellow Emperor's Key couldn't be handed over to the Demon Race now.
"Wait, we can't go. There will be news coming soon …" Just when everyone was preparing to leave, Long Chen said something strange.
"What? What did you say?" Bai Lan and Lei Ji looked at each other and asked in confusion.
The distance of one li was quickly reached. Long Chen used his Devouring Spirit Demon Eyes and saw a few people quickly coming to the Eternal Battlefield.
A few days ago, Kitten was in the center of Mi Cheng and heard that the Demon Race wanted to get the last Mystic Emperor's Key to the Sky Yi Shui City of the Sky Water Region.
He guessed that the news should be coming soon. After all, they had communication methods. Spreading the news was much faster than walking.
Long Chen was acting mysteriously and didn't reply. Everyone was puzzled. At that moment, a man ran over from the distance. Bai Lan and the others looked at him. He was clearly a member of the Demon Clan. He was in the seventh layer of the Earth Qi layer. He was mainly in charge of gathering information.
Soon, he rushed over. Seeing that there were many people here, he quickly whispered something in Bai Lan's ear. Long Chen could faintly hear the words Mystic Emperor's Key and Sky Yi Shui City. This was more or less what he had guessed.
After Bai Lan heard this, her expression changed. Lei Ji, who was beside her, naturally heard it as well.
After someone from the Devil Race notified them, the distant Wind God Faction and the Five Element Union also sent people over to inform them. In an instant, the three major powers knew that the final Mystic Thearch Key had appeared in the Sky First Water City.
"The Keys of the Five Emperors have all appeared. This time, the Ancient Cemetery will indeed open the Five Emperors' Treasure." Bai Lan and the others were pleasantly surprised.
Not only had the Thunder and Demon Tribes heard of this news, but the Wind God Tribe and the Five Element Alliance had also heard of this news. This meant that Bai Lan had to quickly make a decision.
The Mystic Emperor's Key was no longer a secret. Therefore, Bai Lan quickly gathered everyone together and said, "The Mystic Emperor's Key is of great importance. It has appeared in the Sky First Water City. The Sky First Water City is in the Sky First Lake. Moreover, it is in the whirlpool area of the Sky First Lake. Ordinary people simply cannot enter. If you want to fight for the Mystic Emperor's Key in the Sky First Lake, only the strength of Brother Lei and I can be effective. In order to avoid unnecessary casualties, except for Brother Lei, all of you return to the Azure Wood Heavenly City and wait for our news."
"Brother Bai is right. The people of the Lei Tribe should all return as well. Moreover, let the majority of the people of the tribe return to the Azure Wood Heavenly City. Although we have come to the Ancient Cemetery, we cannot have too many casualties." Lei Ji decisively commanded.
The experts of the ninth layer of the Earth Martial Realm like the Thunder and Demon Tribes naturally did not object. Su Xue also did not object. Long Chen naturally did not want to return to the Azure Wood Heavenly City. He originally wanted to mention his own idea, but his brain moved and he did not say anything. This was equivalent to obeying Bai Lan and Lei Ji's orders.
After giving the order, Bai Lan looked at Long Chen and said, "Among the Thunder and Demon Tribes, you are currently the strongest. Everything should be considered for the big picture."
Long Chen felt that Bai Lan seemed to know his plan. However, there were some things that must be done. Therefore, Long Chen promptly said, "Don't worry, nothing will happen."
Everyone made a prompt decision. Bai Lan and Lei Ji immediately took action. Just as they were about to leave, Wu Lian and Feng Qing of the Wind God Tribe, Ancestor Jin of the Five Element Alliance and the five great tribe leaders unexpectedly came out of the formation at the same time. Without saying anything, they all headed towards the Sky First Water City.
The Sky First Water City was originally occupied by the Five Element Alliance.
Seeing their actions, although the Long Bearded Man didn't know what was going on, he knew that as long as he followed the others, it would be fine.
In an instant, all the Heaven Realm experts unexpectedly moved at the same time. They all headed towards the Sky First Water City, leaving the crowd behind.
"Princess, Prince Consort, don't clash with the others. Let's go back now." An elder of the Demon Tribe promptly said.
At that moment, Long Chen's gaze collided with that of the Wind God Tribe's Feng Zhilin. Seeing that young girl who seemed to have lost her soul, the corners of Long Chen's mouth curled into a trace of a cold smile.
At that moment, the heavily injured Wu Guangyu was lying in her embrace.
"Long Chen, what are you looking at?"
Su Xue immediately revealed a suspicious expression. She kept feeling that there was something between Long Chen and Feng Zhilin.
"Nothing. Let's go." Long Chen smiled.
"Xiao Lang, wait for me. I will immediately kill my way back …" Those were the words that Long Chen said to Mo Xiaolang before leaving.
Apart from those peak powers, the other people from the three great powers all returned to their own encampments. The Wind God Tribe's people, under Wu Lian's instructions, all headed towards the Glazed Gold Domain's Glazed Gold Huge City where the Wind Clan was located.
That place was slightly closer to the Sky First Water City. When they returned, they would first go to the Sky First Water City.
In an instant, the Eternal Battlefield became empty.
Following the Demon Tribe's group, Long Chen walked for a while and suddenly said, "Everyone, I have thought for a bit. I still want to make a trip to the Sky First Water City. You all go back to the Cyan Wood Heavenly City first."
Long Chen's sudden decision made the crowd feel a bit strange. Of course, Long Chen's current status in the Demon Tribe and the Lightning Tribe was already very high. Towards his decision, the crowd was quite submissive.
"With my father and Uncle Lei, what are you going to do?" Su Xue asked.
"The Mystic Emperor's key is in the whirlpool of the Sky First Water City. With my strength, I can already enter the whirlpool area. Finding the Mystic Emperor's key depends more on luck. I can still help if I go there. Moreover, the battle skill that I cultivate requires a water attribute treasure. Therefore, I want to go to the Sky First Water City to look for it. There won't be any danger in the Cyan Wood Heavenly City. You all go back first."
"No, I want to go with you." Su Xue was still worried and quickly said.
"Go back." Long Chen glared at her and then said goodbye to the others.
"Got it. So fierce …" Princess Su Xue, who was dignified and noble in front of everyone, was like a wronged little girl beside Long Chen. It was almost the same as Princess Soyeon. This was an eye-opener for everyone.
"Be careful." When Long Chen was really about to leave, Su Xue said with concern.
"Don't worry, it's fine. You all take care of yourselves too."
Long Chen turned back and waved at them halfway. Then, he quickly disappeared into the dense forest of the Cyan Wood Region.
"What a strange person. Speaking of which, I still can't figure out how he survived Wu Guangyu's sword."
"I don't know either. This Long Chen has been like a freak since he appeared. It seems like there's nothing that he can't do. That Mystic Emperor's key might really be obtained by him."
"Of course." Su Xue said proudly.
"Princess Su Xue is really lucky to have such a good husband. When you return to the Myriad Kingdom Territory, you all should hold a grand wedding. When the time comes, let the billions of people in the Myriad Kingdom Territory know that the princess's husband is more talented and valiant than the princess …"
Everyone started to make fun of them.
The two brothers, Lei Wen and Lei Wu, followed suit.
"It would be great if he was like you all. But that guy's heart isn't with me at all. Moreover, Yan 'er is so clingy to him. It won't be my turn …" Although Su Xue's face was a little bashful, her heart was extremely bitter.
While laughing along the way, they headed in the direction of the Cyan Wood Heavenly City. Little did they know that a storm was forming behind them. And the source of the storm was Long Chen.
… … …
The teams of the Thunder and Demon Clans didn't go far from the Everlasting Battlefield. At this time, after Long Chen turned back, he easily found the team of the Wind God Clan with the help of his Spirit Devouring Demon Eyes. From the Spirit Devouring Demon Eyes, besides Feng Zhilin, Wu Guangyu and Xiao Lang, there were also some elders of the Wind God Clan.
In terms of cultivation, all of them were at the ninth level of the Earth Martial Realm.
None of them were pushovers. If Long Chen wanted to kill this group of people, he might have to pay a certain price. If one of them escaped and Wu Lian knew that Long Chen had killed these people, then Bai Lan probably wouldn't be able to protect him.
"Wu Guangyu is under their protection. I can't just kill him like this. Looks like I need to wait for Wu Guangyu's injuries to get better and then let Xiao Lang lure him out."
On one hand, Long Chen wanted Xiao Lang to come back. On the other hand, Wu Guangyu had to die.
Long Chen wasn't a benevolent person. He had wanted to take his life before. Even the Cyan Lotus Sword Art had almost taken Long Chen's life. Long Chen wouldn't let him have an easy time.
Wu Guangyu was still injured. Naturally, it was impossible to lure him out immediately. If Long Chen wanted to kill him secretly, he could only lure him to a deserted place and kill him secretly.
"I heard from Bai Lan that Wu Lian is even stronger than him. I can't easily provoke her. So it's better to be safe."
All of this was Long Chen's plan.
