Dbwg Chapter 159 (2/2)

“As long as you infuse real Qi into the firework signal, it will work.”

Dongfang Xuanxiao narrated the usage of the firework signal.

At this point, Dongfang Tianyu finally winded around and came to Long Chen’s front. He suddenly realised that Dongfang Tianyu’s eyes were full of malicious intent towards him.

“Kid, when I saw you in the Sky Martial Realm, you seemed to pretend to be harmless. For you to dare touch Chu Tianxiong and make my Yunyao angry, could it be that you don’t care for my existence at all?”

Having said this, he placed the firework signal in Long Chen’s hands and continued on to the next person. In the meantime, he turned back and sneered at Long Chen.

Taking care of the Chu family would result in Dongfang Tianyu’s hostility towards him. Long Chen had long since considered that. However, he was now at risk, and there was no other choice but to do this. Because of Liu Lan, the enmity between the Chu Family and him was already at the limit.

After Dongfang Tianyu handed out all the firework signals, Dongfang Xuanxiao produced twenty glistening jade bangles. This should be the mystical jade bangle and, with a wave of his arm, they automatically flew out and winded around Long Chen and the others’ wrists.

Gazing at this bangle, Long Chen was astonished.

“This is the jade bangle. With your strength, it’s impossible to destroy. Once your injuries exceed a limit, the bangle will automatically drop, and others can then retrieve it.”

Dongfang Xuanxiao was expressionless as he continued, “You must know the rules of the Divergent Road well. I won’t say more nonsense. It’s already late, and you’ll need to return and prepare. Early in the morning tomorrow, we will head to the Divergent Road.”

“Yes, Lord Xuanxiao!”

Following the others, Long Chen spoke deferentially towards Dongfang Xuanxiao.

After speaking, Dongfang Xuanxiao had little to say and left.

From start to end, he had not said anything about Long Chen and Chu Tianxiong, but Long Chen knew that by handing the ident.i.ty jade piece to Long Chen and securing it, that in itself was a soundless warning to Chu Tianxiong. In this situation, Chu Tianxiong would not dare do anything to him.

Once Dongfang Xuanxiao left, Gu Batian patted his thigh and stood up, smiling at Long Chen, “Young man, looks like you’re Green Faction isn’t all that safe. How about you come to our Purple Faction and rest? Let me receive you properly!”

Long Chen had not wanted to be together with the Chu Family, and Gu Batian had helped him out of this issue. This was the best situation for him, and he quickly thanked the man, “Many thanks, Senior Gu!”

Seeing Gu Batian and Long Chen colluding together, a cold glint flashed in Chu Tianxiong’s eyes.

“Third Grandpa, don’t be in such a hurry. At the Divergent Road tomorrow, Jin Sheng’en and I have already planned it all out. Long Chen won’t be able to survive.”

At this moment, Chu Yunxi leaned over Chu Tianxiong’s shoulder and spoke.

“Mm. Xi’er, it’s all up to you now. Do as Grandpa told you,” Chu Tianxiong’s voice was icy.

“I know. Before he takes out his firework signal, will smash his body to smithereens.”

Their quiet conversation could only be heard by Lingxi, who was unbelievably bored. She repeated the words for Long Chen to hear, her tone full of fury.

“What’s the hurry? I’m not going to lose to him.” Long Chen laughed as he spoke softly.

At this point, he had dragged Liu Yuan and Liu Lan along. The rest slowly left the hall, and Gu Batian was preparing to bring Long Chen and the other two away.

All of a sudden, Yin Mengyao, who had not spoken at all, said, “Long Chen, right? Can I have a word?”

This icy beauty was actually looking to speak to him voluntarily. Long Chen was surprised.

Gu Batian wasn’t young anymore, yet very energetic. After hearing her words, he teased, “Girl, could you really have taken a liking for this kid?”

Yin Mengyao did not have any change in expression even after hearing these words. She answered calmly, “Senior Gu, I would like to discuss the arrangements tomorrow.”

“Oh.” There was no fun in messing with this girl, and Gu Batian stopped speaking.

Long Chen nodded and headed to a corner of the all with her. The closer he got to Yin Mengyao, the more he felt that she was mind-blowingly beautiful. That cold feeling she gave off was something regular girls could not even learn.

Watching Long Chen, she spoke, “My grand elder of the Silver Faction has told me that you’ve reached the Earth Dan Realm, so I’m at ease. For the battle tomorrow, try to hide as much as you can, and I’ll take care of the opponents. You’ll just have to take care of your jade bangle. Is that alright?”

In actuality, Yin Mengyao was not despising him. Long Chen did not have much of an impression of her, and even if she did seem to be looking down on him a little, that would not affect Long Chen’s good impression of her.

“She’s just worried that if I’m not powerful enough, I’d lose the jade bangle, which would make things complicated. That’s why she said that.”

Long Chen didn’t mind at all and nodded. “Alright, don’t worry. I’ll do what I can.”

From what Long Chen had said to Chu Tianxiong, he was very hot-headed, but never did Yin Mengyao expect that Long Chen would agree so easily, and seemed rather sincere.

That was better and required lesser effort on her part at convincing him. She nodded, bid him farewell, and left.

Long Chen followed Gu Batian and trained at the Nine Devil Mountain Manor for a night. On the morning of the second day, everyone followed Dongfang Xuanxiao and arrived at the bottom of the Devil Mountain of Life and Death.
