Are you from the Chu family? Long Chen was stunned at first, then realized that with such a big commotion and the Luo family all present, as the Luo family's arch-enemy, the Chu family couldn't possibly be unaware of any rumors. Their absence was the only surprise.
More than a dozen members of the Chu family also arrived. Their expressions were hostile, their eyes fixed on Long Chen, murderous intent surging in them. Moreover, these people gave Long Chen a strong sense of threat.
Especially the leader, even Long Chen felt wary, because this person's aura was exceptionally strong and could pose a deadly threat to Long Chen.
However, Long Chen was not surprised. This person must be a genius from the Chu family's inner courtyard, with cultivation already at the Divine Fire Realm. If his talent matched Chu Kuang's, then at this moment, he might not be a match for this person before him.
Because the Divine Fire Realm is a watershed line; the Mortal Shedding Realm is about gathering power, while the Divine Fire Realm is about erupting. It's like the Molting Realm is gathering firewood, and the Divine Fire Realm uses divine fire to ignite it.
The better the talent, the more terrifying the power unleashed after igniting the Divine Fire. The Divine Fire Realm is known as the first beacon to ignite the path of cultivation and the most important starting point. Only by entering the Divine Fire Realm can one truly become a cultivator of the Immortal Realm.
The leader of the Chu family looked somewhat thin, but his eyes carried a cold, sinister intent that made anyone who looked into his eyes feel uneasy.
Long Chen walked out, while they walked inward. They bumped head-on between them, only ten feet apart, and both stopped in their tracks.
The Chu family man looked at Long Chen without much anger. Instead, a smile suddenly appeared at the corner of his mouth:
"I want to thank you."
Everyone was stunned. Was this person speaking sarcastically? Long Chen had just killed the Chu family's prodigy, and two senior members of the Discipline Institute had been taken away. There was still no news, yet he actually wanted to thank Long Chen.
"No need to thank me. Helping others is the source of happiness. Those who show off should be beaten, but not indulged. That's just part of your duty, not worth mentioning." Long Chen stood with his hands behind his back, his face calm as he spoke.
Luo Bing held back laughter almost bursting out laughing. Long Chen really knows how to laugh and catch people off guard.
Luo Bing almost burst out laughing, but Luo Qingyang, who was beside her, didn't smile. Seeing the way Luo Bing looked at Long Chen, his heart sank.
Although both share the surname Luo, the Luo family does not prohibit marriage within the same clan. As long as there is no direct blood relation within ten generations, marriage is allowed.
Luo Qingyang liked Luo Bing, and he had hinted at it before. But whether Luo Bing truly didn't understand romantic feelings or was deliberately avoiding it, he never gave him any answer.
What Luo Qingyang didn't know was that Luo Bing was a very responsible girl. She was determined to bring glory to the Luo family and cultivate desperately, never wanting to let romantic feelings disturb her Dao heart.
So, although Luo Bing was beautiful, all these years she had been very indifferent to any man and had never interacted with any man.
Today, she held Long Chen's arm, and that natural gesture made Luo Qingyang's heart skip a beat, stirring a nameless anger. Fortunately, Long Chen noticed at the time and deliberately used the fist salute to avoid this slightly intimate gesture, essentially making his stance clear to Luo Qingyang.
But now, the way Luo Bing looked at Long Chen and the smile on her lips made Luo Qingyang burn with anger, unable to suppress it.
Luo Bing was completely unaware, just staring at Long Chen, eager to know what would happen next.
Luo Bing and Luo Ning had already walked behind Long Chen with their men. This was a sign of shared hatred. The Chu family was irreconcilable to them, so standing by Long Chen's side at this moment was the most normal thing.
The people from Luomen also walked over, but after just a few steps, they turned back in surprise to look at Luo Qingyang, since Luo Qingyang hadn't moved.
But in the end, Luo Qingyang still walked over. Although he didn't want to take a side, he had to make his stance clear.
Faced with Long Chen's answer, the Chu family member smiled: "That's quite an interesting answer, but I really have to thank you." "
I really don't need you to thank me." Long Chen also spoke very sincerely.
"Pfft"
It was Zhong Ling, the little girl, who was the first to burst out laughing. Although she knew that laughter wasn't appropriate in such a setting, Long Chen's expression was truly amusing.
The Chu family member wasn't angry either. He smiled slightly and said, "Let me introduce myself. My name is Chu Yang, the leader of the Chu Alliance, the half-brother of Chu Kuang, and one of the candidates to inherit the family headship."
The reason I want to thank you is because you made my struggle for the family head position a bit less. Although my younger brother has always been spoiled and refuses to cultivate properly, to be honest, I am a bit afraid of him.
Because his talent was better than mine, and his mother's family was powerful, and my father was wary of him, he had the right to be arrogant and reckless.
If he could cultivate diligently, he might be the one most likely to inherit the position of family head. Unfortunately, there aren't so many 'ifs' in this world.
So to thank you, when I decide to kill you, I'll leave you with a whole corpse. What do you think?" Li
Cai and the others were furious. This Chu Yang was even more detestable than Chu Kuang, able to provoke others without showing any emotion, especially with his indifferent tone and attitude, which was extremely annoying.
Long Chen shook his head, a bit troubled, and said, "You say that really puts me in a difficult position." "
What is it?" Chu Yang asked casually.
"Mainly, I'm someone who doesn't go easy on you. When facing you, I really can't guarantee I'll leave you with a whole corpse." Long Chen said with some trouble.
"Hahaha!"
Chu Yang laughed up at the sky, "Interesting, really interesting. Do you know I haven't gone to wipe out the Luo Alliance all this time?" "
What a joke! Do you think our Luo Alliance is made of noodles?" A strong member of the Luo Alliance retorted, "During this period, the Chu Alliance and the Luo Alliance have been at odds, each suffering losses, and neither has gained the upper hand. Chu Yang is just saying he'll take out the Luo Alliance, but his tone is far too arrogant."
"I would like to hear the details," Long Chen was curious to hear. This Chu Yang was quite interesting, far more insightful than Chu Kuang.
Chu Yang ignored others and said calmly, "That's because of Chu Kuang. According to the family's instructions, I have to pave the way for him. All the glorious matters must be done by him."
This way, his future career as head of the family would have many glorious achievements: I plant peach trees, he picks peaches.
Now that it's dead, I can only pick the peaches. Now you understand, right? Long
Chen nodded and said, "Understood. Now you can both pick the peach and avenge Chu Kuang. It's killing two birds with one stone—killing two birds with one stone. It seems your luck is pretty good too." "
So, I want to thank you." Chu Yang said with a smile.
"I told you, no need to thank me, it's only right." Long Chen laughed too.
"So, what are your plans next?" Chu Yang asked.
Long Chen shrugged and said, "I don't have any plans. Although I don't like trouble, I'm not afraid either. The path of cultivation is dull and dull. Occasionally taking out a few people to spice up life is actually pretty nice." If
you just listen to the tone, it feels like two old friends reminiscing, chatting and laughing, yet fighting to the death. Such a conversation is truly chilling.
"Alright then, let's wait and see. I hope you won't let me down." Chu Yang said.
"Don't worry, I've never let anyone down. By the way, can I ask you something?" Long Chen suddenly said.
"Please go ahead."
"You keep your front feet tense, your hind legs slightly bent, and the two of you shielding you at any moment, ready to retreat at any moment. Are you afraid I'll slap you hard?" Long Chen chuckled.
Chu Yang's expression became slightly awkward. He snorted coldly and left with his people.
