Chapter 1759: Third Commander

Only once Long Chen’s words rang out did that disciple notice him . He jumped .

“Long… Chen!”

He almost couldn’t believe his eyes . He hastily struggled to stand, looking at him excitedly .

“You’re not bad . Even when facing death, you were able to stay calm . That’s what a true expert needs to possess . ” Long Chen nodded . He truly did look favorably upon this young disciple . Although it was said that each warrior had to be able to face death, only a few could still maintain an absolute calm while facing it . Such people had to have powerful hearts .

That disciple was extremely moved to obtain Long Chen’s praise . His body even quivered with emotion . This was a major acknowledgment for him .

Long Chen’s name was now so famous that everyone in the Martial Heaven Alliance knew him . He had taken first place on the Devil Slaughter Rankings, the greatest honor . Even in the eyes of the Central Xuan Region’s disciples, he was a G.o.d-like existence .

“That’s not for certain . A person has to be smart too . If they don’t even know their own power, then sooner or later they’ll die miserably . ”

Just at this moment, a cold snort rang out . The crowd parted to reveal a man with a medium build and a dark face .

He wasn’t particularly tall, but the proportions of his body were off . His upper body was shorter than a normal person’s, while his legs were exceptionally thick . He looked bizarre .

He was wearing the same robes as Xin Li, and they were different from the other disciples’ robes . He was clearly also a powerful Empyrean with a similar status to Xin Li .

However, when this person appeared, all the disciples immediately became wary and looked coldly at him .

The man slowly walked over, followed by a group of disciples with surging auras who glared at Long Chen .

It seemed the interior of the Martial Heaven Alliance was not completely united . Long Chen’s mouth curled into a cold smile . This person had clearly come to find trouble with him .

This person was not at all surprised to see Long Chen . If Long Chen’s guess was correct, he had come over specifically for him .

“To be self-aware but not feel inferior . To have confidence but not be conceited . That is the mark of an expert . However, you are correct when you say a person should be aware of their own power . I want to know, how can you tell that others aren’t self-aware? Or is it that you simply feel that you yourself are lacking self-knowledge . ” Long Chen glanced at the dark-faced man .

Just this person’s tone showed his att.i.tude . Long Chen naturally wouldn’t give him face .

“Third commander, what do you think you’re doing?” demanded Xin Li .

In the Martial Heaven Alliance, the junior generation had four commanders . They were all powerful Empyreans with immense power, and they each led their own troops .

The four commanders were ranked according to power . Xin Li was ranked fourth, meaning he was the weakest amongst the four commanders .

However, Xin Li possessed great daring and had won Qu Jianying’s acknowledgment . He had also won the respect of his peers .

It was just that in terms of power, he was the weakest of the four commanders and was often rejected by the other commanders . There was still quite a bit of disharmony amongst this group .

The third commander had now come, causing the people on this side to tense up . They were enraged inside . The third commander had definitely done this on purpose .

“Xin Li, a defeated general should bring his defeated troops to the side . I’m not here for you, but for him . ” The third commander pointed to Long Chen .

“You!” Xin Li took a step forward but was held back by Long Chen .

“I know you came for me . I don’t like beating around the bush, so just tell me your goal directly . ”

“First, tell me why you came to the Central Xuan Region . ”

“Does it have anything to do with you?

Was this fellow an idiot? As soon as he opened his mouth, he asked such a laughable question .

“Long Chen, it would be best if you were more obedient! Do you know who you’re speaking to?” shouted one of the disciples beside the third commander .

Long Chen glanced at that person who immediately stiffened . An intense sensation of death enveloped him . He felt like the death G.o.d’s blade was already pressed against his neck .

He suddenly let out a cry as he wet his pants . His legs quivered .
