Chapter 769: Pierced Heart!



Chapter 769: Pierced Heart!

Long Chen realized that there were two assassins! One of them used a bow. Based on the strength of the arrow shooting towards the Three Thousand Star Clusters, he determined that the assassin was at the Eighth Earthly Martial Stage. While the assassin running towards him was most likely at the Ninth Earthly Martial Stage based on their speed!

“Ninth Earthly Martial Stage …” Suxue detected the person running towards them and chose to stand in front of Long Chen rather than pursuing the bow user. She understood how serious this was when there was someone at the Ninth Earthly Martial Stage coming after Long Chen.

Long Chen made a snap decision. “You block the Ninth Earthly Martial Stage one. It’s best if you can figure out who it is. I’m certain that you will know this bastard if he’s in Heavenly Wood City. I will chase after the other one.”

“What? You can’t go! The other person is very strong too …” Based on the power of the arrow, she could also tell that the other person was most definitely at the Eighth Earthly Martial Stage. How could Long Chen defeat someone of that caliber?

But the other assassin had reached them. The assassin saw Suxue and was shocked before he snarled. It was clear that the person recognized her!

“What petty thief dares to infiltrate the Demon clan’s territory and cause trouble here?” Suxue pounced towards the assassin. Because of their disguise, neither Long Chen nor Suxue recognized him.

They also reckoned that the other assassin was going to escape.

Suxue was blocking the first assassin, and Long Chen understood that he couldn’t delay this anymore.

Suxue wanted him to stay quietly beside her, but Long Chen refused. They were in the midst of attacking him, so there was no reason to play it safe. This was different from what Chen Xu had done—this was assassination! If Long Chen allowed the other party to live, he could get killed for real next time!

“Blood Warp!” Long Chen disappeared and stopped one Li away. The place was covered in a dense layer of leaves and mist, so he used Sight and found the archer. Long Chen was just a hundred meters away from him!

The assassin thought he had killed Long Chen and was preparing to escape.

Chen Yang was currently confused. He thought killing Long Chen was supposed to be a simple task, but who was the person running towards him? That man appeared to be trying to plunder something from Long Chen. Chen Yang had a good idea on who that was, but he didn’t dare make assumptions.

Unless … Does Long Chen have some kind of treasure? Chen Yang thought that was most likely the case. He understood that he was being used by someone to kill Long Chen. Now that he had succeeded, he needed to escape Heavenly Wood City as fast as possible. He was confident that the Troop Destroying Arrow had killed Long Chen, since a regular Sixth Earthly Martial Stage cultivator would never be able to block an attack of that level.

As he escaped, he continued to entertain his thoughts on what kind of treasure Long Chen could’ve obtained. He suddenly recalled the star light and had a daring thought. That old coot would never look down on regular treasures. There’s only a few treasures that would attract him. Could it be that Long Chen had obtained the inheritance of the Seven Star Lord? Is that why the Clan Leader is taking care of him?

He felt like this was very likely after thinking about the way Long Chen was cultivating so high up in the sky.

Damn. I’ve been tricked by Situ Yao, that old bastard. I was the one who killed Long Chen, but he went in to take the treasure. I will die if I get caught, but he’s the one who gets the inheritance! Chen Yang sighed in defeat, but at the very least, he had managed to avenge his son by killing Long Chen.

Just then, he sensed someone chasing after him. He turned around and was shocked to find that it was Long Chen! Chen Yang had seen Long Chen before and would never make the mistake of forgetting his face!

I thought he was dead! How is he here? Did the arrow fail to kill him? What about Situ Yao? Chen Yang looked at where Long Chen had been up in the tree and saw an intense battle unfolding up there. One of them was the strange man in black, who was using techniques that didn't belong to Situ Yao. But Chen Yang knew that Situ Yao had learned a lot of different techniques so it would be easy for him to disguise himself.

The other person was none other than the oldest princess of the Demon clan, Suxue.

I never thought Princess Suxue would be cultivating together with Long Chen! No wonder I failed just now! But … Chen Yang grew fierce. He thought he had failed, but he was overjoyed when he was presented with a second chance with Long Chen appearing in front of him! He never thought Long Chen would be stupid enough to deliver himself!

What a rare opportunity. Situ Yao is being held up by Suxue. I can use this chance to kill Long Chen and take the inheritance for myself! Then I will be able to stand proud! Chen Yang was excited. He never thought that the heavens would grant him such a rare chance.

“Long Chen, I thought you were a smart man! I’m surprised to see that you’re actually a complete fool!” Chen Yang put the Cloud Piercer away and ran towards Long Chen.

“I knew it! So it’s you! I guess it's to be expected since I killed Chen Xu, but then who’s the other person?” Long Chen was certain that the other assassin was Chen Yang, which was why he had chased this assassin.

Suxue and the other assassin were fighting intensely at the top of the tree. Both of them were at the Ninth Earthly Martial Stage, but Suxue was more talented and the techniques she had cultivated were stronger. She had obtained the true teachings from Bai Lan and could use some of the martial techniques of the Divine Demon Lord with ease. The assassin, however, had a lot of fighting experience. Each of his techniques were vicious to the core, and the two were locked in a stalemate.

Long Chen wasn’t worried about Suxue, but she was worried about him. While they were fighting, she was distracted by Long Chen’s condition. That was why even though her opponent was holding back to not reveal himself, Suxue failed to defeat him swiftly!

Long Chen was currently fighting against Chen Yang.

“You are seeking your own death by chasing after me.” Chen Yang chuckled and took out a black blade from his Universe Pouch. It was the same as the blade Chen Xu had used!

“You killed my son! I will kill you with the same blade tonight!” Chen Yang howled.

“Who is the other person?” Long Chen wasn’t scared. He had transformed and covered his body in blood-red scales. He was a killing machine right now.

Thankfully, Suxue was here as a witness to testify that Chen Yang was trying to kill Long Chen. He could go all-out against Chen Yang tonight. Still, Long Chen was wary of the other person. He had a feeling that they were even more deadly.

Long Chen tried using Control, but it was useless against an Eighth Earthly Martial Stage cultivator. Since Long Chen could not win his trust, he could not control his soul. Little Cat’s techniques would not work either since the Dream Demon’s techniques were only useful on those below the Fifth Earthly Martial Stage.

The stronger the other person was, the stronger their Martial Soul would be. Similarly, the less Little Cat could do against them.

Chen Yang didn’t bother answering Long Chen since he was so certain that he would kill Long Chen soon. He was also setting up a path to survive just in case. If he told him that it was Situ Yao right now, he would most certainly die when Situ Yao caught him.

What he didn’t know was that Situ Yao intended to kill him in the first place, but the plan had become much more complicated because of the unforeseen circumstances.

While Suxue was busy fighting against the assassin, Long Chen was fighting against Chen Yang. Chen Yang ignored Long Chen’s questions and attacked directly. He needed to kill Long Chen as quickly as possible and loot his treasures. That way, he could escape immediately.

“Seven Killings Tiger Knife Technique! Pierced Heart!”

It was the hidden technique of the Chen family. The technique was stronger than his son’s, so numerous large tigers emerged from his blade. Each attack contained the strength of someone at the Eighth Earthly Martial Stage. Long Chen would have to exhaust a lot of energy if he wanted to block it head-on.

Which was why he used the Big Dipper Step to avoid them. He didn’t want to use it at first, fearing that Chen Yang would recognize it, but he had no choice because an attack from an Eighth Earthly Martial Stage cultivator was too strong.

Death was but a second away. There was no room to think that much during intense battles.

The Big Dipper Step activated and Long Chen’s body flashed on the starplate. He dodged all of the attacks, which stunned Chen Yang. Now Chen Yang was even more certain that Long Chen had obtained the inheritance of the Seven Star Lord.

The Big Dipper Step was a profound technique that allowed Long Chen to dodge all of the attacks from the Seven Killings Tiger Knife Technique.

That Body Combat Technique … It must be an Emperor-tier Body Combat Technique … Chen Yang got even more excited after thinking that it would be his soon!
