Supreme Dragon Lord-Chapter 249: Divine Blade Sect!

"No... no..." Qian Kun’s face filled with terror as he hastily shook his head, his voice stammering.

Long Chen chuckled, increasing the force under his foot.

CRACK!

A crisp sound rang out, and Qian Kun’s face twisted into a fierce grimace. Intense pain washed over him, making him let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered.

Seeing that Long Chen was about to deliver a fatal blow, Dong Xuan frowned slightly and hurriedly advised, "Brother Long, wait!"

"Hmm?" Long Chen turned his head to look at Dong Xuan. "What is it?"

Dong Xuan expressed his apprehension. "They’re from the Heavenly Water Sect. We mustn’t start killing!"

The other disciples from Guiyuan Academy also stared nervously at Long Chen. After all, the Heavenly Water Sect’s strength here was incredibly formidable, far beyond what their Guiyuan Academy could afford to offend.

"Brother Dong, I understand your concerns," Long Chen said coolly, "but you need to understand something as well. If we let them go now, we will inevitably face even more severe retaliation later. Mercy now will only bring greater harm in the future. Have you thought this through?"

Hearing Long Chen’s words, Dong Xuan fell silent.

Wei Lin, however, nodded in agreement. "I agree with our Senior Brother! Things have already come to this, so we might as well go all the way. If we get rid of them, the matter won’t leak out. This will save us a lot of trouble."

Qian Kun’s mouth twitched fiercely. He had truly underestimated Guiyuan Academy. These people had not only stolen his things but were now planning to murder him. They were even more ruthless than he was!

He remained motionless, observing Long Chen closely. He secretly gathered his strength, planning to strike Long Chen’s chest with his palm the moment he was unguarded.

BANG!

But to his surprise, a powerful force suddenly erupted from the sole of Long Chen’s foot, causing his chest to explode.

Qian Kun froze, his eyes bulging wide. As Long Chen withdrew his foot, Qian Kun collapsed back onto the ground. He died with his eyes wide in disbelief, never having imagined he would end up like this.

Long Chen spotted a Storage Bag on Qian Kun’s waist, reached out, and snatched it. Then, he swung his sword again. The remaining Heavenly Water Sect disciples all died on the spot.

Witnessing Long Chen’s decisive slaughter, everyone present gasped. Wei Lin’s gaze, however, held a newfound appreciation for Long Chen. In his eyes, although Long Chen seemed a bit arrogant, his willingness to fight anyone who crossed him was very much to his liking.

Lü Hao and the disciples of Xuanyue Valley trembled at the sight, gasping sharply as shock and fear filled their hearts. Feeling Long Chen’s sharp, cold gaze land on him, Lü Hao snapped back to his senses, shivering uncontrollably.

A single thought flashed through his mind.

Run!

With that, he immediately turned to flee with the Xuanyue Valley disciples. But Long Chen was already prepared. He vanished with a WHOOSH and reappeared in front of Lü Hao, blocking his path.

"Thinking of running? Not a chance."

Long Chen shot out a palm, and the powerful gust of wind sent Lü Hao flying.

"Stop him!" Lü Hao’s voice trembled. Hearing this, the Xuanyue Valley disciples had no choice but to brace themselves and attack Long Chen, despite the terror in their hearts. Lü Hao, however, turned and fled without a moment’s hesitation, terrified he would suffer the same fate as Qian Kun.

"Damn it, don’t let him escape!" Wei Lin fixed his gaze on Lü Hao and leaped forward in pursuit.

"Help!" Lü Hao fled frantically, shouting at the top of his lungs to attract the attention of any nearby groups. "Someone, help me!"

The Guiyuan Academy disciples’ expressions turned grave. If he drew the attention of other factions, everything that happened here would be exposed. With that thought, they all sped up their pursuit of Lü Hao.

Facing the Xuanyue Valley disciples blocking his way, Long Chen showed no mercy.

SLASH! SLASH!

With a few flashes of his sword, blood splattered. The Xuanyue Valley disciples collapsed to the ground.

「At the same time」

Several figures flashed past nearby. They stopped when they heard the commotion. Each carried a large saber on their back and wore a matching uniform with the character for "blade" embroidered on the left shoulder.

These were men from the Divine Blade Sect. In this region, the Divine Blade Sect’s strength was not to be underestimated, even when compared to the Heavenly Water Sect, which was on the verge of being promoted to a Second-class Power.

"Listen. Does it sound like someone is crying for help?" one man spoke slowly.

"I hear it too," another replied. "It’s coming from just ahead."

"Let’s go take a look," the first man said. "We might gain something from this."

Upon hearing this, the Divine Blade Sect disciples immediately hurried toward the source of the shouts.

Fleeing for his life, Lü Hao was so terrified by the relentless pursuit of the Guiyuan Academy members that his heart nearly leaped from his chest. He used every trick he had in a desperate attempt to escape. Just then, he spotted people ahead and shouted even louder, "Save me!"

When he recognized them as members of the Divine Blade Sect, his face lit up with joy. This was because his Xuanyue Valley had always been on good terms with the Divine Blade Sect, and the two factions kept in contact. Seeing the Divine Blade Sect here was like finding a lifeline.

He immediately waved and shouted, "Brother Dao Ying, it’s me, Lü Hao! Help me!"

Dao Ying, who was in the lead, also spotted Lü Hao and frowned slightly. "Is that Lü Hao from Xuanyue Valley?"

"Yes, it’s him!" one of the Divine Blade Sect disciples behind Dao Ying confirmed, having recognized Lü Hao as well.

"Hurry!" After confirming his identity, Dao Ying immediately led his disciples over.

When Dao Ying reached him, Lü Hao immediately begged for help. "Brother Dao, please, save me! Those thugs from Guiyuan Academy are trying to kill me!"

"What?" Dao Ying looked bewildered. "What did you say? The people from Guiyuan Academy want to kill you? Did I hear that right?"

Not only was Dao Ying stunned, but the other Divine Blade Sect disciples were also completely dumbfounded. Everyone knew that among the Third-class Powers, Guiyuan Academy was the weakest of all. And now Lü Hao, a disciple of Xuanyue Valley, was being hunted by them?

"Yes!" Lü Hao nodded emphatically. "Not only are they after me, they also killed Qian Kun from the Heavenly Water Sect! They’re chasing me here right now!"

"What?"

The Divine Blade Sect members were even more aghast. They had thought the news of Guiyuan Academy chasing Lü Hao was shocking enough. But to think that Qian Kun, a disciple of the Heavenly Water Sect’s Great Elder, had been killed by them? What in the world happened?!

Before they could process it all, Lü Hao turned and pointed ahead. "Look, they’re here!"

Hearing this, the Divine Blade Sect members looked in the direction he was pointing. Sure enough, they saw Dong Xuan and Wei Lin leading the disciples of Guiyuan Academy, charging toward them with breathtaking momentum.

The sight left the Divine Blade Sect members frozen on the spot.

Was this the same vigor and spirit that the disciples of Guiyuan Academy, the ones who were always trampled underfoot, were supposed to have?
