Chapter 226 (1/2)

Chapter 226

The entire crowd was deathly silent . Tang Wan-er felt the world spinning around her and she directly fainted . It was Ye Zhiqiu who caught her .

No matter how strong a cultivator was, unless they had stepped into the Xiantian realm, a stab through the heart was absolutely fatal . None of them had expected Long Chen to really die along with Wu Qi .

Ling Yun-zi and Tu Fang were both dumbstruck . Wasn’t it said that Divergents could only be killed by the Heavenly Daos? Was Long Chen not a Divergent?

The two of them were filled with regret . If they had known earlier that Long Chen wasn’t a Divergent, they wouldn’t have had so many misgivings and would have gone all-out to groom him into their strongest disciple .

“How could it be like this?” Wu Qi looked at the bone blade piercing through his stomach . His organs had all been destroyed, and his life was quickly fading away .

“It’s because you’re afraid of death, while I am not . ”

Long Chen’s expression was still as icily calm as it had been from the start . It was as if he didn’t even care about life or death .

“I… don’t want… to die… I… want to live…” Wu Qi bitterly cried out .

“Would you have acted differently if you had known this would be the result? Back when you were tormenting Little Snow, back when you were about to end Little Snow’s life, back when you were acting like some powerful dictator, did you think this day would come? Get on your way!”

Long Chen pulled his bone blade out of Wu Qi’s stomach . Everyone could clearly see Wu Qi’s stomach . A foot-long hole had appeared there and his broken organs fell out, causing him to immediately die .

“Please sect leader, please go save Long Chen!”

Suddenly, every single disciple present knelt down towards Ling Yun-zi . What was surprising was that even Gu Yang and Lei Qianshang were among them .

Ling Yun-zi shook his head helplessly . If it had been his own heart that had been stabbed through, then with his Xiantian realm cultivation base, he was able to use the natural energy to heal it .

But Long Chen had yet to step into the Xiantian realm, and so he was unable to endure that natural energy . His body would immediately explode from that power .

Looking at the kneeling disciples, Ling Yun-zi couldn’t help sighing . Was this the power of Long Chen’s charisma? Even his previous mortal enemies were begging to save him .

“My brother Long hasn’t died, so why does he need to be saved?” Wilde looked at everyone with confusion, scratching his head .

Suddenly the death-deciding stage’s gate opened up again . The rebirth monolith also stopped falling . From the start to now, it had only descended half a foot .

The fight had ended too quickly . In just four moves, Long Chen had killed Wu Qi . It had just taken a couple breaths of time .

But those couple breaths had pa.s.sed so slowly that all of them had felt as if the entire two hours had pa.s.sed . It had been that shocking and alarming .

Seeing that figure slowly walk out of the death-deciding stage, everyone was filled with wors.h.i.+p and regret . That sword was still stabbing through his heart; as soon as it was pulled out, he would immediately die .

Even if it wasn’t pulled out, he wouldn’t be able to hold on for more than a couple breaths . Everyone mourned for his pa.s.sing .

“Boss, don’t die, I’m still counting on you to bring me throughout the world . ” Guo Ran was the first to rush up and wail .

Long Chen frowned and took out a drop of liquid from his spatial ring, swallowing it . Then he grasped the hilt of the sword .

Blood flew as he pulled out the sword .

“No!” Everyone let out startled cries . By doing this, all his blood would rush out and he would immediately die .

As he pulled out the sword, Long Chen felt that drop of divine life energy healing his heart, quickly fusing the injured portion . It stopped bleeding in just a breath .

As he had thought, that Spirit World expert had truly been powerful . This thing she had left behind for him was incomparably precious . He would definitely have to be careful with how he used it in the future .

But at the same time, he remembered her last words . These drops of divine life energy were a kind of contract . He would need to help her out in the future . Long Chen truly wanted to go to that so-called Spirit World, but that kind of thing was far too distant for the current him .

“Boss, you… you’re not dying?” Guo Ran was shocked . The opening on his chest had rapidly fused back together, and he couldn’t help babbling out nonsense .

Long Chen was about to say something when exhaustion battered him and he felt a burst of dizziness .

He had lost too much blood for now . Although that drop of divine life energy had healed him, it wasn’t able to make up for his blood loss that fast .

“Boss!” Guo Ran immediately ran up to support him .

Long Chen shook his head around, still feeling a bout of weakness overcome him . He had lost too much blood . It would probably take him a long time before he could advance to the eleventh Heavenstage of Blood Condensation .

“Long Chen!”

Long Chen had only just managed to steady himself slightly when a fragrant breeze blew over and a soft body embraced him .

The instant Tang Wan-er had awoken and seen Long Chen still alive, she couldn’t help hugging onto him and crying .

“Long Chen, you scared me to death… you scoundrel…”Tang Wan-er had become like a little child again . Her tears streamed down her cheeks .
