Dragon Blooded War God - Chapter 503 - Wind Riding Sword Finger

Chapter 503 – Wind Riding Sword Finger

Ying Shaotian was talented in wind-attribute techniques just like Chu Yunxi was. Inside the tornado, Ying Shaotian pointed a single finger at Long Chen’s throat. A strong ray of energy shot towards him like a sword.

“Wind Riding Sword Finger!”

To make sure his plan worked, Ying Shaotian used an advanced Heaven-tier martial technique. The strongest aspect of this technique was its speed. Just like Long Chen’s Sword Devil Finger, Ying Shaotian had used it when the sword was already near Long Chen’s throat.

The attack was several times scarier than Ling Xi’s Sword Devil Finger in terms of speed and strength.

Under the whirlwind’s effect, the sword was also rotating like a drill. If it hit Long Chen, it would pierce through his throat!

Both Demon Kings were in awe at the attack. With Ying Shaotian’s talent, he would definitely become the next Demon King in just ten years. A Demon King at the age of twenty-seven was unheard of.

Of course, there were many others at the Earth Martial Realm in the palace.

The Clear Shallows King was frowning. She knew most of Long Chen’s battle strength came from his transformation, and he hadn’t transformed yet, so he was defenseless against the advanced Heaven-tier martial technique. If Long Chen died here, he wouldn’t be able to participate in the upcoming assessment.

Liu Yiyi’s face was pale. Long Chen was a boy who had left a deep impression on her. She couldn’t stop Long Chen’s naughty smile for the past few days, not the stoic expression he had on his face when he walked away. If he died now, her heart would be empty.

The Clear Shallows King was about to save him when she saw the Red Ghost King staring at her. It was likely that he would stop her the moment she moved.

At the final moment, Long Chen made his move. Everyone was shocked to see him transform into a blood-red light and dodge the attack. He also disappeared from the Clear Shallows King Pavilion.

Both the Clear Shallows King and the Red Ghost King saw the bizarre scene.

They were certain that even if they used all their strength, they could not move at such speeds. Only one person could move at that speed, and it was none other than the master of the Ancient Demon Domain, the one who was called the Demon Emperor, Jiang Wuxie!

The two were stunned. Only Liu Yiyi sighed in relief when she saw that Long Chen was fine. She looked towards the outside of the pavilion and knew that Long Chen was somewhere nearby.

She had seen how mysterious Long Chen was. She was certain that she had killed him in their fight, but he had come out unscathed. And now, despite being at such a low cultivation level, he had exhibited such demonic speed …

Ying Shaotian was the one who was most surprised. He had finally found a chance to kill Long Chen with justification, but Long Chen had somehow disappeared right before his eyes. With that speed, he was a hundred times faster than Ying Shaotian!

That was how Long Chen disappeared. Ying Shaotian recalled his technique and almost spat blood at how he had missed Long Chen with that attack. Still, he could not trash the Clear Shallows Pavilion.

After recalling his technique, he looked back in a daze. His gentlemanly look was gone because of how zoned-out he was.

“That technique … seems to burn up Qi to escape. It’s very rare to find one,” the Clear Shallows King mumbled to herself.

She now understood how Long Chen had dodged Zhao Wuji’s Nine Heavens Thunder Talisman that night. It wasn’t because he was strong enough to withstand the damage, but because of his method to escape.

Blood Warp was incredibly strong, and there was no limit to its speed. There were other techniques used to escape, but all of them were limited by their tiers. Once a cultivator’s level surpassed that tier, the technique would be useless. Blood Warp was in its own league!

The Red Ghost King knew of the existence of such techniques.

They then looked at Long Chen slowly strolling into the pavilion. He said to the Red Ghost King and Ying Shaotian, “I believe you wanted to see how I survived the talisman, and I just showed it to you. Brother Ying’s attack didn’t even touch me, so I hope you are convinced that I was not lying. Please leave the pavilion now.”

His voice was filled with authority and defiance.

“No, you needed to take on the technique, not escape it!” The Red Ghost King didn’t know what to do here.

“Red Ghost King, did you forget what Ying Shaotian said? He said that he wanted to see how I survived the talisman, not block it. Red Ghost King, it’s very easy for people to misunderstand what you are trying to do here. People might think you are trying to kill me through a test. You’re not that kind of person, right?” Long Chen returned to the side of the Clear Shallows King.

Long Chen’s words made the Red Ghost King silent. Ying Shaotian was even more frustrated. He had shot himself in the foot. Long Chen had used his words against him, and there was no way to turn the situation around. CH𝒆Ck for 𝒏ew st𝒐ries on no/v/el/bin(.)c0m

Ying Shaotian shook his head at the Red Ghost King.

The Red Ghost King’s face turned even redder as he suppressed his anger, but the Clear Shallows King’s face made him extremely mad. Zhao Wuji was dead, and as his master, he couldn’t do anything due to the wager just now. Ying Shaotian had sealed the deal by setting the wrong conditions.

He had no choice but to leave now.

The largest surprise had come from Long Chen. Both the Red Ghost King and Ying Shaotian looked at him. To think that the youth who had just entered the Ancient Demon Domain had so many secrets … The Red Ghost King also recalled how Long Chen was supposed to be his direct disciple. He felt that he was blind to pass on Long Chen now that he had witnessed his talent.

Of course, Long Chen hadn’t shown his true power. If he had, the Red Ghost King would’ve spat blood out of regret and died.

“Both of you, please leave,” Long Chen reminded them once more.

The Red Ghost King gritted his teeth and suppressed the urge to smack Long Chen, but he was wary of the Clear Shallows King, so he had to endure it for now. Just then, he looked at Liu Yiyi and chuckled. “Is this your daughter? She’s growing up to be beautiful. I don’t think it’s an exaggeration to call her the greatest beauty in the Seven Demon King Pavilions. She would be a great match for Ying Shaotian. Clear Shallows King, don’t forget about the bet we made before. It was made in front of the Demon Emperor himself. I wonder, can anyone in your pavilion defeat Ying Shaotian?”

He then laughed and walked away. Ying Shaotian smiled and bowed. “I apologize for the brazen words of my master. Miss Liu Yiyi is definitely stronger than me. It’s uncertain who will win. I’m sorry for offending you today, and I will return to apologize another day. Goodbye.”

He then left with the Red Ghost King.

Only Long Chen and the other two were left.

Both the Clear Shallows King and Liu Yiyi were impressed by how Long Chen had turned the situation around so easily.

“Jiang Cheng, you did well today. I would like to appoint you as my direct disciple. Do you accept?”

“Of course I do … But what’s the bet that you made with them?” Long Chen had a feeling that the bet concerned Liu Yiyi and Ying Shaotian, and the reason why the Clear Shallows King was nurturing him so much was because of the bet.

The Clear Shallows King knew that she could not hide it anymore, so she sighed and looked apologetically at Liu Yiyi. “This was five years ago. I was rash and harmed Yiyi.”

Harmed?

“What’s going on?”

“During the previous assessment, the Red Ghost King Pavilion got second place and we got last. At the final battle, the Red Ghost King’s disciple killed our strongest disciple. We never had a friendly relationship to begin with, so I fought him that day. Afterwards, we made a bet in front of the Demon Emperor. If we lost to the Red Ghost King Pavilion in the next assessment, I would marry off my daughter to his strongest disciple, and if he lost, he would have to kowtow three times to me and apologize.”

The Clear Shallows King was regretting her actions when she looked at her daughter. “This was the biggest mistake of my life. I harmed my daughter because of how rash I was, and I still blame myself to this very day. Yiyi, I’m so sorry …”

Long Chen suddenly felt like the Clear Shallows King was not as irritating as before.
