Chapter 795

It was unknown if it was because the Xiao tribe had been isolated from the outside world for so long, but they didn’t really understand Long Chen’s words .

Long Chen continued, “Xiao Fei is one of you indigenous people, and you’re all mortal enemies with us outsiders . But his courage to fight and not abandon his companion while being chased down won him my admiration . So I helped him, and he became my brother . When my little brother has difficulties, as the big brother, I naturally can’t just watch . So, I will take Xiao Fei’s place in this battle . I’m sure you have no problem with that, right brother?”

“Big brother Long Chen…” Xiao Fei hadn’t expected Long Chen to look after him so much . His eyes reddened . In the entire Xiao clan, there were few people who would treat him so well .

“Don’t do anything embarra.s.sing . Men should be men . I helped you because you reminded me of my younger self . However, my situation was ten times worse than yours . I can help you once, but next time, you’ll have to help yourself . Men can only rely on themselves after all . ” Long Chen patted Xiao Fei’s shoulder .

Looking at Xiao Fei, Long Chen felt like he was looking back at his younger self . Although their ages were a bit different, the extent of his plaintive misery was similar to his . One was pushed by his family, and one was pushed by his environment . That feeling was like they were a dog being trapped in an alley . That kind of feeling of having no way out was something that could only be understood through experience .

“Hahaha, fine . I’ve long since found you unlikable . Since you want to take Xiao Fei’s place, get over here!” laughed Xiao Gu . A sinister light shone in his eyes .

Previously, Long Chen’s slap had almost broken his whole head . The pain was one thing, but that humiliation could make a person crazy .

When Long Chen first developed his divine face-slapping art, he hadn’t made it with any intention of killing people . It was a move specialized toward dealing with those arrogant people who liked to cultivate by looking down on others . After so long, it had reached the divine level .

Its killing power didn’t lay in physical pain, but in ruining that arrogant heart . Long Chen wouldn’t easily bring out this face-slapping art to use against just anyone, but some people were just too hateful . Long Chen couldn’t even help himself .

“Don’t, Long Chen! Xiao Gu is a late Sea Expansion expert, and he can release his full power here . He’s completely different from when you first encountered him,” warned Xiao Ling .

Long Chen smiled slightly toward her to express his thanks and then turned toward the old tribe leader . “Will you allow me to take Xiao Fei’s place to fight?”

The old tribe leader hesitated . For an outsider to partic.i.p.ate in this kind of battle was extremely inappropriate . He had saved Xiao Fei and Xiao Yu, and if he was injured from this, their Xiao tribe would become people who repaid grat.i.tude with enmity .

He was just about to open his mouth when the white-eyed elder said, “Young people can play around with themselves . ”

The old tribe leader no longer hesitated upon hearing that . “Then let’s switch locations . This isn’t the right place for a fight . ”

Very quickly, Long Chen found himself being brought to a wide s.p.a.ce . It was an extremely simple and ordinary land, but it was definitely far enough . He could fight to his heart’s content here .

Looking at Long Chen, the old tribe leader bitterly smiled to the elder beside him . “Old brother, don’t let them play around to the point that my Xiao tribe ends up infamous for being ungracious . I don’t have that many years left, and I want to be able to face the ancestors in the future . ”

“Don’t worry, my Heaven Eyes are not for nothing . These past few days, I’ve been feeling uneasy, feeling like something was about to happen . But despite careful calculations, I didn’t learn anything . I then suddenly had an impulse to come and see you to reminisce about the old days . But now that this person has appeared, I finally understand that the reason I came was because fate brought me here,” said the white-eyed elder .

The old tribe leader was startled . “Fate brought you here? You mean you’ve been drawn into this? Doesn’t the Heaveneye tribe cultivate the secret arts to peer into the heavens? How could you be drawn within the scope of the Heavenly Daos?”

The Heaveneye tribe possessed an ancient inheritance . Those who cultivated the Heaven Eye Art all needed to blind their own eyes .

That was because the Heaveneye tribe’s people believed that the eyes were the things that tricked people the most . The things they saw were just an appearance, and it was easy to be misled . They took on the position of spectators in the world .

The Heaveneye tribe’s experts could divine fate, so their position was extremely high . But they rarely divined anything for other people . That was because they considered themselves people outside the Heavenly Daos . They couldn’t interfere in the matters of the Heavenly Daos, or they would invoke karma . That karma would definitely come at a price .

“The Heavenly Daos? Hehe, everyone says that they cultivate the Dao, but by the end, they don’t even know what Dao they’re cultivating . How could we vainly discuss the Heavenly Daos? My Heaveneye tribe is just a branch from the ancestors . The cultivation technique we have is incomplete, so our skills are limited . You’ve overestimating me .

“According to my understanding, escaping from the Heavenly Daos is like a chess piece that jumps off the chessboard, only to find that they are a chess piece on an even larger chessboard . This chess piece might have clearly seen its original chessboard, but it’s unable to see the bigger chessboard . So no matter how we cultivate, we’re all on that chessboard .

“When I saw this youth called Long Chen, I suddenly thought of a certain thing . Do you still remember that legend?” asked the elder .

“Are you talking about the words your Heaveneye tribe’s ancestor left behind before ascending?” asked the old tribe leader .

The white-eyed elder nodded . “Yes, right before the old tribe leader ascended, he left behind four lines: the dragon swims through the mortal world, the immemorial revives; lightning breaks the sky, the end of the ten worlds!

“Although the ancestor ascended countless years ago, no one managed to comprehend the true meaning behind his last words . That ancestor was someone who personally witnessed the destruction of the Immemorial Path . His last words have to have some meaning .
