Chapter 17 – DisdainTranslated by:Edited by:TLCed by: OMA
This move of Long Chen’s, had immediately roused the attention of the crowd. Everything had happened in an instant. Yang Lingyue furiously used [Nine Fingers of the Wind Devil], and each and every hit had already landed on Long Chen. Because of that imposing martial finger technique, every time one hit landed it would cause the clothes on his body to be shredded. Fresh blood was constantly spilling out from his mouth!
Suddenly such a situation happened, so all of the Yang family members had stood up. All their expressions were uneasy, especially Yang Xueqing’s expression. Her face turned pale white and the handle on her chair had been crushed into pieces by her.
As for Yang Lingqing, her face was even paler, and continued to watch the fight on the stage.
“Stop! Lingyue Sister!”
As the [Nine Fingers of the Wind Devil] was presented, there wasn’t a reason to hold back. At this point, just when the Yang family founder was about to stop the fight, he noticed Long Chen’s eyes!
Long Chen firmly stared towards Yang Lingyue, his blood constantly flowing out from his mouth, but his gaze was still intense. The Yang family founder had been deeply stunned!
This is the most persistent gaze he had ever encountered in his life!
“Vicious! Unbending! Unyielding! Insane! Cruel!
These were the things that he could make out from Long Chen’s eyes. And no matter how far his strength was ahead of Long Chen’s, but this gaze of his had actually struck fear into his heart!
“If this boy were to grow up……Just based on this nature alone……He would astonish everyone!”
As the Yang family founder did not interfere, the others naturally did not dare to either. And at this point, Yang Xueqing had walked one step forward, but was actually blocked by the Yang family founder!
No one had noticed this action from Yang Xueqing, even she was not aware.
When everyone had believed Long Chen to be dead soon, suddenly, Yang Lingyue’s limit, the seventh finger of the [Nine Fingers of the Wind Devil] hit Long Chen’s body. He abruptly let out a crazed howl and then drawing his fist he punched towards her. These actions were natural and unforced, as if he had practiced them countless times!
Since she had just finished using the [Nine Fingers of the Wind Devil], she was weary, and her emotions were struck with fear and shock. Yang Lingyue after being hit in the stomach by Long Chen’s fist, gave a pitiful scream, and was immediately blown off the sparring stage. With a loud bang she crashed into the wall, she then spit out a mouthful of blood and abruptly fainted.
Yang Wu seethed with fury, but was held back by Yang Qingxuan who said: “Bring Lingyue to heal her injuries, do not attack.”
Yang Wu coldly looked at Long Chen, and then agreed. But deep in his heart, he had already planned to viciously beat Long Chen up. As one must know, Lingyue is his blood sister, and normally even he himself did not bear to hit or even scold her.
At this abrupt scene, the courtyard went dead silent. All of the people had astonished faces and were looking towards the young man who was still standing on the stage!
His robes had already been ripped into rags by the [Nine Fingers of the Wind Devil], and his back was revealed. Blood was spurted out from his mouth, and the injury on his chest caused by the [Nine Fingers of the Wind Devil] was bleeding profusely. He was completely covered in blood!
However, he was steadily standing on the stage, and the [Nine Fingers of the Wind Devil] attack that was used earlier on him actually did not make him retreat even half a step! Even after that last hit of his that had defeated Yang Lingyue he still did not fall down. His face was showing off a faintly cruel smile as if a battle G.o.d was sweeping his gaze across the crowd. At this point he looked at Yang Xueqing with his bloodstained eyes and coldly smiled.
Looking on at the figure which was standing perfectly upright on the stage, Yang Xueqing’s face turned pale, and even backed off a step. Inside her heart there were tumultuous layers of waves!
She did not dare to even look Long Chen in the eyes, and actually turned around and escaped!
Long Chen silently watched on as she left.
“Have you seen this? Are you scared now? Yes, I am a member of the Long Family! I am the son of Long Qinglan! We all have an unyielding nature! To all the people who looked down on me, you will realise, I Long Chen, will one day become your nightmare! As for today, it is just the start of this nightmare!”
“Yang! Xueqing! From today onwards, you will see a completely different version of Long Chen! He will be the focus of everyone! You will no longer have any rights to look at Long Chen with disdain anymore! He will be the existence that will shock you and make you revere him!”
Right now in his heart, there was an overflowing wave of emotion that was surging from within.
This is the first time he had been so heavily injured, but also up till now, this was the first time he was that impressive! And because of today, he had finally stood up for himself! His back was upright, and while standing on the stage, he swept his gaze across everyone!
As for everyone else, they could only look at the figure that was on the stage, shocked yet unable to say a single word.
For victory, he had used his own body to block Yang Lingyue’s [Nine Fingers of the Wind Devil] attack. And once Yang Lingyue’s attack was completed and this had exhausted her, he dealt a critical hit! Such a crazy method, no one present would dare to do it!
Yang Lingyue ran towards the stage, and because of the current situation she halted her footsteps. After looking at Long Chen who was completely blood stained, and at the blood that had not yet stopped dripping from the corner of his mouth, her tears betrayed her and they started flowing out.
Long Chen’s gaze had finally landed on the Yang family founder. He smiled indifferently and said: “Yang Lingyue has already lost her ability to battle, but here I am still standing, so who the grand winner of this intra-family compet.i.tion is, I think it’s obvious. Grandfather, please award me with the [Seal of the Dragons]!”
“Please award me with the [Seal of the Dragons]!”
This voice was as loud as thunder, ringing through the ears of the crowd!
This young man who was covered in blood had not fallen. His fiery gaze also did not let anyone dare to belittle him. From this day onwards, this scene will be etched deeply into the hearts of everyone!
The Yang family founder’s feelings were obviously struggling. But that gaze from the stage that was on him, was one he could not avoid.
And at this moment, an azure flash with a brushing sound had headed towards the stage.
“b.a.s.t.a.r.d, return me my son’s life!”
It was Yang Yuntian that was at the seventh level of the Dragon Pulse Realm!
Long Chen had created such a huge commotion in the intra-family compet.i.tion, and Yang Yuntian was still inside the Yang family residence, so how could Yang Yuntian not have known of this?
Earlier when Long Chen and Yang Lingyue were having a battle, he was holding himself back. But now when Long Chen had won, and had no defenses left, he immediately dashed up the stage and went for Long Chen’s life!
Yang Yuntian could be said to be much stronger than Yang Lingyue, his cultivation level almost reaching the eighth level of the Dragon Pulse Realm. As he attacked, a strength that could topple the mountains and overturn the seas had come rushing towards Long Chen!
[TL Note: (Idiom) “Strength that can topple the mountains and overturn the seas.” means spectacular/earth shattering strength.]
Originally the crowd was still second guessing if Long Chen wouble be able to obtain the [Seal of the Dragons], but now such a scene happened, so it had shocked the crowd and they cried in surprise!
