Chapter 1692: Chapter 1689: The Fall of the Divine Dragon Sect
After returning to the Tianwu Star Domain, Li Chen was about to head to the Fallen Star King’s Palace.
But suddenly he received a distress signal from Long Ming.
The direction was the Divine Dragon Sect!
Could something have happened to the Divine Dragon Sect?
The people of Xingyun Hall didn’t know his background, only that he came with Long Ming.
If they couldn’t find him, the most likely scenario would be to interrogate Long Ming.
Thinking of this, Li Chen no longer hesitated, his body transformed into a stream of light, heading straight for the Divine Dragon Sect.
At the same time:
The Divine Dragon Sect had already turned into ruins.
The disciples of the Divine Dragon Sect were almost completely dead or injured.
Divine Dragon Sect Master Long Ming, along with the Mountain Guardian Beast Dragon Python, were both severely wounded.
The ones who attacked them were the two Elders from Xingyun Hall.
Long Ming spat out a mouthful of blood, looking at the sect turned into ruins, his heart dripping with blood.
His eyes almost spat fire, shouting fiercely: "Elders, my Divine Dragon Sect neither held grudges against your Xingyun Hall nor has enmity recently, why did you destroy my sect?"
An Elder with the surname Zhang from Xingyun Hall angrily replied: "True, your Divine Dragon Sect indeed has no past grudges or recent enmities with our Xingyun Hall. But who asked you to team up with our enemy Li Chen!"
The other Elder with the surname Wu impatiently said: "Senior brother, why bother talking so much nonsense with him, quickly capture him, and force out Li Chen’s whereabouts. His Python Dragon has quite impressive strength, sure to be a big supplement, capture and cook it directly!"
Hearing the two Elders’ words from Xingyun Hall, Long Ming felt puzzled, he simply couldn’t understand how Li Chen became an enemy of Xingyun Hall?
Actually, not only was he confused, even the two Elders from Xingyun Hall were not that clear.
They came here merely carrying out orders.
"Take action!"
Elder Wu, being of fiery temper, shouted loudly, charging straight to attack Long Ming.
At the same time, Elder Zhang also lifted his sword abruptly, slashing through the void, extending towards the Python Dragon.
Although the strength of Elder Wu and Elder Zhang was far from Chen Yanshou’s, they had reached the Mid Mahayana Peak Realm, just a step away from the Late Stage of Mahayana.
As for Long Ming and Python Dragon, their combat powers were slightly inferior.
Thus, after only a few rounds, they were utterly defeated. Under the attacks of Elder Wu and Elder Zhang, they could only defend without the power to retaliate.
Especially the Python Dragon, its current combat capability only equated to an average Middle Mahayana.
Combined with its large size and lesser agility, making it a very obvious target, it was already stabbed with hundreds of bloody holes all over.
From afar, it appeared as if it were fished out from a blood pool, extremely tragic.
Seeing the Python Dragon heavily wounded and nearly dead, Long Ming was in a state of chaos.
Elder Wu, who was fighting against him, sharply seized the opportunity and slapped Long Ming’s shoulder with the palm of his hand.
Caught off-guard, Long Ming was severely injured onsite, his body as if a kite with a broken line, flew straight out until crashing into a mountain, only then did he roll down wretchedly.
He just wanted to get up when he suddenly felt a sweetness in his throat, spurting blood in huge gulps.
Elder Wu seized the chance to pursue, condensing a black Ancient Sword in the palm of his hand, pointing directly at Long Ming’s throat Life Gate.
"Long Ming, will you honestly tell me where Li Chen has gone now?"
Long Ming wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth forcefully, angrily saying: "I don’t know!"
In this point, Long Ming indeed wasn’t lying.
He truly didn’t know where Li Chen was.
However, Elder Wu didn’t believe him.
Elder Wu’s gaze turned suddenly cold, revealing a killing intent.
"You seem to need to see the casket to shed tears!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised the black Ancient Sword, slashing towards Long Ming’s shoulder.
"Crack!"
A black lightning bolt slashed down.
One of Long Ming’s arms was completely cut off, and the blood spurted out like a fountain.
Long Ming winced from the pain, clutching his wounded arm, his face pale as frost.
Seeing this, Elder Wu’s lips curved into a sinister smile.
"Will you speak now?"
Long Ming spat blood on the ground with force, saying: "I already said I don’t know, and even if I did, I wouldn’t tell you!"
Elder Wu didn’t expect Long Ming’s attitude to be so unyielding, it was somewhat unforeseen.
Immediately, Elder Wu’s eyes drew a cruel smile.
"Alright then, let’s see if your mouth is hard, or my methods are harder!"
Speaking, a black vortex condensed in Elder Wu’s palm.
Then, he slowly drew out a pitch-black snake from the vortex.
The venomous snake’s triangular eyes and its scarlet tongue made those who saw it feel chills down their spine.
"Is that the Xuanyin Snake?"
Long Ming recognized this black snake, showing absolute horror in his expression.
Apparently, he greatly feared this Xuanyin Snake.
Elder Wu’s lips curved into a sinister smile, responding coldly: "Seems like you do have some knowledge. Yes, this is the Xuanyin Snake, it can make one wish for life, but cannot seek death!"
As he spoke, he raised his palm aggressively, intending to force the Xuanyin Snake into Long Ming’s mouth.
As Long Ming felt unprecedented fear and despair, suddenly a thunderbolt exploded in the clear sky.
Following that, a splendid rainbow came slashing through the air.
Elder Wu, shocked, instinctively stepped back.
Seeing the newcomer’s silhouette, everyone present was startled.
Elder Wu roared furiously: "Who are you?"
The newcomer was none other than Li Chen.
Upon hearing Elder Wu’s questioning, Li Chen didn’t answer directly, instead letting out a cold chuckle.
Elder Wu felt mocked, outraged, he shouted fiercely: "What are you laughing at?"
Li Chen’s gaze was commanding, he said word by word: "Weren’t you coming to find me? Now asking who I am, isn’t that ridiculous?"
"Are you Li Chen?"
Elder Wu’s eyes ripped wide in disbelief.
Seeing Li Chen finally arrive, the despairing heart of Long Ming ignited with a renewed glimmer of hope.
With a mouth full of blood, he struggled to utter a single word.
"Master!"
Li Chen, seeing the scarred Long Ming and the ruined Divine Dragon Sect, his eye’s star-like brightness was instantly replaced by a chilling killing intent.
Then, he took out a pill and handed it to Long Ming.
"Don’t say anything, focus on healing, leave the rest to me!"
