C42 (2/2)

”The Tiger Wolf Guards?” As he thought about it, Long Chen glanced at the people lying on the ground, clad in silver clothing, and shook his head. ”No.”

Li Tang was stunned again. ”Brother Long, this Tiger and Wolf Guards are the elites of the imperial family. Although you didn't have anything to do with them before, but now that you've killed their men, it's likely going to lead to a lot of trouble.”

”If he wants to kill me, I'll kill him. No matter how troublesome it is, just kill him.” Long Chen stared at Li Tang as he spoke. Until now, Long Chen still didn't know Li Tang's origin and purpose. He had already contacted Mo Jian, who was in his soul, and at such a close distance, Long Chen was confident that he could instantly take Li Tang hostage.

However, if he were to get involved in this battle for no reason, it was just as Li Tang had said; he feared that it would bring about some trouble.

Although he spoke of killing intent, this was directly linked to his strength. He didn't have the strength to kill so many people right now. Killing a small leader would use up almost all of his spiritual energy.

When Long Chen and the Sharp Scales came out, they had separated. Long Chen and the Sharp Scales were connected by their minds, and even though they were connected to the Sharp Scales at the moment, they weren't that strong, so they didn't know how to find them.

Hearing Long Chen's words, Li Tang was startled. That faintly discernible killing intent came forth without restraint. The old man behind Li Tang slowly stretched out a pair of large, thick hands from his sleeves, staring at Long Chen with bright eyes.

As he looked at Long Chen's exposed chest, his heart started to sweat. If such ruthlessness at such a young age were to occur in the future, just how far would he be able to go?

”Brother Long, I mean no harm, your injuries are so severe, if you don't mind, can you come to my manor to rest for a bit, and then we can go to the place you want to go after you recover. What do you think, Brother Long?” Li Tang said sincerely.

There wasn't the slightest bit of malice in his actions, but Long Chen still didn't dare to relax. After being together with that scum Rui Lin for a long time, he had already learned a few things, what kind of problems do you need to grasp before doing them properly? Otherwise, he would be played around like a fool in the dark, just like a wanderer who had been lured by the sharp scales and eaten by a fire sparrow.

Not only that, Long Chen was equally unsure. Li Tang had just said that the Tiger Wolf Guards they killed were the hounds of the Tianxin royal family. How could they possibly fight against the Tiger Wolf Guards?

”Why did the Tiger Wolf Guards kill you?” Long Chen straightforwardly asked.

”It's just like what happened with Brother Long. They killed our people, so of course we have to go back and kill them.” Li Tang said.

Long Chen stared at Li Tang, and Li Tang looked at Long Chen. The only feeling Li Tang gave Long Chen was that his cultivation was unfathomable. It wasn't that his cultivation was unfathomable, but rather, it was a type of intelligence.

”Brother Long, I do not have any ill intentions. I just want to invite Brother Long to come to the manor to take a seat. Would Brother Long be willing to give me some face?” Li Tang extended another invitation.

Long Chen did not hesitate and nodded his head in agreement. Right now, he still did not know how far away the sharp scales were. Long Chen hoped that he could find a place to cultivate and quietly wait for the sharp scales.

Another reason was that he had killed the people from the Tiger Wolf Guards. The Tiger Wolf Guards might even know that they were chasing after him. There were also several that had seen him before. If he came again, Long Chen wasn't sure if there would be others with higher cultivation.

If more came, then it would be too late to run. And right now, Li Tang and his group had also killed the members of the Tiger and Wolf Guards, so even if the Tiger and Wolf Guards came, they would still have a group of helpers, saving him a lot of trouble. Furthermore, Long Chen didn't feel any malice from Li Tang's side.

Li Tang was overjoyed as he ordered the few people behind him to clean up the corpses on the ground before turning around and making a gesture towards Long Chen. Long Chen walked out with Li Tang by his side, and the old man silently followed behind him.

As Long Chen walked, he took out two pieces of chaos saliva and was about to sprinkle them on his wounds, but he stopped when he took them out. This was taken from Free and Unrestrained, so Long Chen put it back. When Li Tang and the elder behind him saw the Primal Chaos Saliva, their pupils shrank. Li Tang's pair of black and white eyes continuously flickered. From within, one could see the faintly discernible Wings of hope.

”Brother Long, this is the spiritual medicine passed down to me by my ancestors.” Li Tang handed Long Chen a small bottle. Long Chen paused for a moment, but still accepted it. ”Thanks. I'll return it to you in the future.”

”Brother Long, I'm sorry.” Li Tang laughed.

”Why is there only a man wearing a silver robe and imprint wolf among the Tigerwolf Guards?” Long Chen suddenly asked.

”Brother Long, you don't know. The Tiger and Wolf Guards are divided into two parts. The Wolf Guards came today and the Tiger Guards came. Compared to the Tiger and Wolf Guards, the Wolf Guards can't even compare in power.”

Most of the Wolf Guards were at the Core Formation stage, while the leader was only at the Spirit Transformation stage. The leader was only at the soldier building stage, but the weakest of the Tiger Guards was at the soldier building stage. However, they've heard that the two commanders of the Tiger and Wolf Guards were at the same level.

People like us are nothing but clowns in the eyes of the Tiger Wolf Guards, so they don't put us in their eyes at all. Therefore, they will only send the Wolf Guards, but sending this Wolf Guards here would almost kill us all. Li Tang explained, and at the end, he could not help but sigh.

Long Chen was stunned. ”Brother Li, you flatter me.” Long Chen cupped his hands together. Long Chen's reaction caused Li Tang to be somewhat astonished. He thought that Long Chen would only reply coldly, but he didn't expect him to say something like that.

He couldn't blame Long Chen for this, especially after spending so much time with the scales. Long Chen's words had even surprised him, not to mention Li Tang.

Li Tang laughed and whistled. Four or five horses came running from a distance.

”Brother Long, after you.” Li Tang raised his hand. Long Chen, who had never ridden a horse before, was stunned. He wanted to get close to the horse, but the horse would retreat with a scream as if it was extremely intimidating.

”This …” Li Tang was stunned.

”The killing intent is too strong, the horses are frightened.” The old man behind Li Tang slowly spoke. Long Chen leaped up onto the back of the horse, and the horse galloped back and forth. He wanted to throw Long Chen off his back.

”If you don't want to die, then calm down.” The sound of the horses' hooves was too loud. Li Tang did not hear what Long Chen said. He only saw Long Chen bend over and grab the horses' ears to steady himself. This made the hope in Li Tang's eyes grow even stronger.

Everyone galloped away on their horses.
