This chapter is updated by https://𝒇𝒓𝙚𝙚𝒘𝙚𝒃𝙣𝓸𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝓶

No one expected Bai Shichen to die in Yang Lingqing’s hands. Bai Zhanlong’s mind went blank when he saw his healthy son get chopped to pieces. The only thought left in his brain was one word: kill!

He turned around and looked at the thin girl standing in front of the Yang family. Bai Zhanlong was in disbelief that the son that people called the ultimate prodigy had been killed by a young girl from the Yang family!

One major reason for why it happened was him underestimating Yang Lingqing, but the biggest reason was the girl’s sudden rise in strength!

Bai Zhanlong instantly descended into madness. Bai Shiji was standing near Bai Shichen. His face was pale at this point, while Bai Zhanfeng’s was stony green. Bai Zhanfeng glared at the Yang family with malice. “Not a single Yang member will leave here alive today!”

When Bai Zhanfeng made the declaration through clenched teeth, Bai Zhanlong had already sprung towards Yang Lingqing like a raging dragon!

The power of an Eighth Draconic Stage cultivator crashed into the Yang family like a tsunami, making Yang Lingqing feel like a small, wooden boat struggling in a storm. The only possible outcome was death.

Yang Lingqing had known that this was how it would end, and she accepted her fate. She wasn’t afraid of death, but she felt guilty for burdening her family. When she had lost all hope, a red silhouette suddenly caught her eye!

She was overcome with joy, and her entire being relaxed instantly. Seeing this person filled her with infinite calm. “Brother ... Chen.”

Yang Lingqing knew that the familiar silhouette was Long Chen. If Bai Zhanlong was moving as quickly as a tornado, then Long Chen was a powerful windstorm twisting past Bai Zhanfeng and Bai Shiji in a flash, charging after Bai Zhanlong!

When he sensed the immense aura behind him, Bai Zhanlong, who was hell-bent on killing Yang Lingqing, finally woke from his rage. The powerful aura alerted him that even if he could kill Yang Lingqing, he would end up dead as well!

Although he didn’t know who was behind him, he still cared for his own safety. He hesitated for a moment, but Yang Lingqing used this small opening to retreat backwards. Bai Zhanlong had only taken a few more steps forward when a deathly threat loomed over him!

He turned in fear and his pupils dilated. A flash of red appeared before his eyes, and he could only make out the outline of that person’s face. That was when an unstoppable force crashed into him!

The blinding pain of a fatal injury spread across his body. Bai Zhanlong could barely breathe from the agony. Although he had only seen the outline of the red figure’s face, he knew who it was.

Long Chen. Long Chen was the only person with a body covered in blood-red scales. Only Long Chen could make him feel so helpless.

When Long Chen completely destroyed his defenses with only one blow, Bai Zhanlong knew that he wasn’t the only one who had lost. The whole Bai family had been defeated!

If the Bai family had won the battle, Long Chen would never have become this powerful, nor would he be here!

The next blow came, and Bai Zhanlong was blasted into the ground. Long Chen’s fist collided with Bai Zhanlong’s chest once again. The bony spine on his fist penetrated his chest, shredding his organs!

Blood sprayed out of Bai Zhanlong’s mouth, staining his whole face red. He fought the intense pain, trying to open his eyes, but his vision had turned blood-red and was becoming blurrier by the second. In the end, he could only make out the blinding, red sun above, and beneath the sun was a blood-red figure walking past him. His gaze then focused on the perfect blood-red scales. “You ...”

Bai Zhanlong’s world went dark.

After killing Bai Zhanlong, Long Chen arrived in front of Yang Lingqing. He looked at the girl, who was now sobbing ceaselessly, and pulled her lovingly into his arms. Yang Lingqing hugged him tightly and sobbed even harder, her tears soaking into his clothes.

Yang Lingyue, who was behind them, was so emotional that she couldn’t breathe when she saw Long Chen and how he had killed Bai Zhanlong in just one blow.

Her impression of Long Chen had been rising steadily since he defeated her on the stage at the Family Meeting. Now, Yang Lingyue saw him as the Yang family’s pillar, as well as her own!

Color finally returned to Yang Wu’s pale face. He took a deep breath and looked at the blood-red figure standing in the sun. He was completely humbled. “He is the true chosen one. I, Yang Wu, am but a common peasant next to him ...”

The Yang family members stared at Long Chen, their despair dissipating. They never would’ve imagined that he would save their lives one day. They knew they were completely safe as soon as they saw him. And the Yang family seemed to have won.

Their gazes were filled with emotion.

Long Chen was stroking Yang Lingqing’s hair, speaking gently in her ear. “Lingqing, I’m sorry for being late. I’m sorry you had to suffer ...”

Yang Lingqing’s tightened chest finally relaxed, and she was filled with surprise and calmness. She wanted to tell him all about how much she had suffered, but nothing seemed to come out. “You don’t have to tell me. I know what you want to say. You’ve been very brave. You’re my little sister after all! As for the brats who bullied you, they will meet the same end. They will die ...”

When Bai Zhanfeng and Bai Shiji saw how Bai Zhanlong had been killed in just two blows, their rage was replaced with deep fear.

They had no time to wonder why Long Chen was here despite the death trap their family had set. Nor did they wonder why he was this strong now. Their hearts were completely swallowed by fear of Long Chen’s sudden appearance and Bai Zhanlong’s gruesome death!

Bai Shiji never would’ve imagined the worthless teenager of the Yang family would make him feel deep fear like this today. Both him and Bai Zhanfeng ran immediately, as fast as they could!

Bai Zhanfeng’s mind slowly cleared while he ran, but he only felt more fear with time. Why is he here? Why is he this strong? Were they not enough to kill him even with Father’s intricate traps? Was the Human Core Realm master no match for him? That’s impossible! How could this brat be that scary?

A wave of panic rolled through him. At this point, he had already sprinted into the Desolate Mountains. He thought he was finally safe, but a red figure appeared with a flash, blocking his path.

Bai Zhanfeng paled instantly!

“You’re trapped. Do you really think you can escape me?”

Long Chen’s cold voice caught Bai Zhanxiong off guard. Bai Zhenfeng had also just heard him when the figure in front disappeared in a flash and he felt several forces cut through his body. He was instantly reduced to pieces!

“Why?”

Bai Zhanfeng only had time to exclaim one word before his internal organs shattered from Long Chen’s Typhoon Nine Fingers. He lost consciousness very quickly, his eyes wide in disbelief.

When Bai Zhanfeng collapsed, Long Chen shook his head. “There is no reason. We are enemies, so you must die.”

Long Chen disappeared once again, chasing after Bai Shiji, who had fled in another direction. But he couldn’t run fast enough to escape Long Chen’s lightning speed.

Bai Shiji had entered the Desolate Mountains by now too. When he saw that Long Chen had gone after Bai Zhanfeng, he heaved a sigh of relief and said coldly, “Now that the Yang family has let me escape, I shall commit myself to cultivation from today onwards. When I achieve success, that will be the end of the Yang family!” 𝙛𝓻𝙚𝙚𝔀𝙚𝓫𝓷𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝒎

“Is that so?”

A voice sounded from behind Bai Shiji. His face turned pale and he felt a powerful force gripping him. He was completely helpless in the face of such power and was dragged backwards! freeweb(n)ovel.co(m)

He knew it was Long Chen.

Bai Shiji had never traveled this fast in his life—not even Bai Sheng could run this fast while holding him. He felt the wind rush past, and he couldn’t even see his surroundings clearly!

Long Chen leaned his face so close that he touched Bai Shiji’s head. When he saw the brat’s panicked look, he grinned. “Now that you’ve said that, it’s all the more reason why I shouldn’t let you go.”

When Bai Shiji heard Long Chen, his fear reached its peak and he quickly realized that Long Chen had brought him in front of the entire Yang family. When he saw so many people glaring coldly at him, his previous arrogance vanished instantly and he kneeled pathetically in front of Long Chen, tears streaming down his face. “Please let me live. Even if I have to be your servant, I will serve you well for the rest of my life. I’m begging you, I will never dare do this again ...”

Bai Shiji’s pathetic groveling made Long Chen lose even more respect for him. He recalled Bai Shiji’s arrogant behavior from before, a far cry from the man now begging him for mercy on his knees. Long Chen had a revelation. All of this is because of my strength. Father would never harm me; every word he said was golden. I must never allow myself to stagnate at this level, or I’ll be the one on my knees begging someone else for mercy one day.

Disgust was the only emotion the Yang family felt while watching Bai Shiji.

Especially Yang Lingyue. Bai Shiji used to be an elegant gentleman in her eyes who was ten thousand times better than a spoiled brat like Long Chen. She only imagined Long Chen would kneel at Bai Shiji’s feet, but never had she expected to see Bai Shiji kneeling at Long Chen’s feet instead. And in such a pathetic state too.

Yang Lingyue thought of Bai Shiji’s past glory, then she recalled how he had hurt her brother, Yang Wu. Now, all that was left was unbridled rage and hatred. At this point, she still didn’t know if the Yang patriarch and the others were still alive, so she bore the strongest killing intent amongst all the Yang family members.

Long Chen suddenly looked at Yang Lingyue and said, “Sister Lingyue, you do it. Kill him!”

Yang Lingyue froze when he called her name.

“Lingyue, go. Kill Bai Shiji. It’s time for you to grow up too,” said Yang Wu in a gentle voice.

Yang Lingyue looked at her heavily injured brother in her arms, then at Long Chen and Yang Lingqing. She recalled how impressed she felt when she watched Yang Lingqing single-handedly kill Bai Shichen. She could kill Bai Shiji now?

When Bai Shiji heard this, his face changed. Looking at Long Chen’s icy expression, he knew the situation was hopeless. He attempted to attack Yang Lingyue, but Long Chen fully expected it.

The moment he moved, Long Chen punched him hard in the chest, causing him to collapse. He felt as if all his bones had broken, the intense pain leaving him paralyzed.

“Lingqing, lend me the sword.”

All the blood drained from Bai Shiji’s face and he panicked when he heard Yang Lingyue’s cold voice. “Lingyue, don’t do this! Don’t ... I truly love you! Would I have given you that jade necklace and earrings if I didn’t?”

As soon as he finished speaking, she threw the jade necklace and sparkling earrings in his face. He then saw the glass sword form a large arc behind the shiny light from the jewelry. There was a whoosh, and Bai Shiji felt an icy object stab into his heart.

He saw Yang Lingyue’s beautiful face amidst his fading consciousness, but the whole world faded very quickly.

Yang Lingyue stabbed the Illusory Glass Sword through Bai Shiji’s heart, then she sat on the ground with a dazed smile. “Bai Shiji, you used to tell me that I was the only girl for you. But I can see clearly now. I never was ...”

Long Chen patted her head. “Oh, don’t be silly. People like him only have dog blood in their hearts. He would never commit to a beautiful girl like you.”
