172 The Twenty Young Deities And Long Zhentian. (1/2)

Upon hearing Long Meng's words, Ling Chen couldn't help but frown a little. The main reason he didn't want to help Long Meng by getting rid of the Soul Devouring Poison in his sea of consciousness was that he didn't want to make any powerful enemy in Blue Dragon City.

Even though he didn't know who had implanted the soul-devouring poison in Long Meng's sea of consciousness, he was a hundred percent sure that this person was a very powerful existence.

Though Long Meng wasn't that strong and was only a peak Martial Sovereign realm warrior, he was still a member of the Long Family.

Not only the Long Family was one of the nine ancient strongest families in the Sun Demi-God's Domain, but they were also the ruler and the founder of Blue Dragon City.

The presence of the Long Family in Blue Dragon City was like his Ling Family in the Heavenly Demon Sect's Domain. They were like gods and not many people would dare to offend them.

Yet, someone dared to implant a soul-devouring poison in Long Meng's sea of consciousness, a member of the Long Family.

Furthermore, from the looks of things, Long Meng didn't even dare to report his situation to the Long Family which clearly had the means to easily get rid of his problems and punished whoever did that, but instead, he came to him, a perfect stranger.

Ling Chen wasn't that stupid to help Long Meng and incited the wrath of whoever had implanted the soul-devouring poison in his sea of consciousness.

It's not like he was afraid, but he didn't want to make enemies needlessly and messed up his peaceful life in Blue Dragon City.

However, he didn't expect that he would unconsciously make a powerful enemy just by saving and helping the pair of pitiful mother and daughter, the very thing he was trying so hard to avoid.

Still, he wasn't mad or regretted his action. Even if he had known beforehand that saving the pair of mother and daughter would anger some powerful people, he would still do it without any hesitation.

”Who is that person you're referring to, benefactor.” Calmly asked Ling Chen as he was looking at Long Meng.

”One of the twenty Young Deities, young master Long Zhentian.” Blurted out Long Meng with a nervous and frightened expression on his face.

Just mentioning the name of that person was enough to send a cold icy chill down Long Meng's spine.

However, while Long Meng was waiting to see the frightened expression on Ling Chen's face after mentioning the name of Long Zhentian, something beyond his comprehension happened.

”Amitabha. Twenty Young Deities, Long Zhentian, I am afraid this poor monk doesn't know what or who you are talking about?” Answered Ling Chen with an oblivious expression on his face.

Long Meng gasped in shock after hearing Ling Chen's words. Almost all the people in the Heaven Suppression Region have heard about Long Zhentian and the Twenty Young Deities before.

They were as famous and popular as the Ten Demi-Gods of the Heaven Suppression Region.

'Was this monk living under a rock or cave!' Long Meng thought inwardly as he was looking at the oblivious expression on Ling Chen's face.

He could clearly tell that Ling Chen wasn't lying, and he was right. Ling Chen didn't know anything about Long Zhentian and the Twenty Young Deities.

He only did some research about the Ten Demi-Gods when he came to the Heaven Suppression Region. Other than that, he didn't really care about the ancient families and the so-called geniuses of the Heaven Suppression Region because none of them could pose a threat to him.

After seeing that Ling Chen really didn't know anything about the Twenty Young Deities and Young master Long Zhentian, Long Meng proceeded on explaining everything to him.

According to Long Meng, the Twenty Young Deities were the most powerful and outstanding younger generations of the Heaven Suppression Region.

They were all below the age of forty. However, they had all broken through the Martial Saint Realm years ago.

They had the power to jump rank and challenge an opponent that was a rank higher than them. No one among the younger generations could compete against them.
