The fiery arrow whistled toward him, carrying vast divine might. Mo Nian snorted coldly and was about to reach out to catch it. He wanted to show his hand too, but Long Chen grabbed him firmly.
"Smack!"
Long Chen struck the flaming arrow with his palm. The seemingly inconspicuous flame exploded with a thunderous roar, followed by endless runes dancing like dazzling fireworks.
Flame runes scattered, falling petals in dazzling array, breathtakingly beautiful, but the powerful figures present screamed in terror and scattered in all directions.
"Boom boom boom... Those
fiery runes crashed into the viewing platform, instantly shattering it. The vast platform was instantly turned into a sea of fire. Countless strong fighters, too slow to escape, were touched by the flames and instantly turned to ashes.
"Wow!"
Mo Nian was shocked. He hadn't expected to misjudge him. Jiang Yizhou's casual strike had such terrifying power. If Long Chen hadn't pulled him away, he would have suffered a huge loss.
Flame runes flowed, the sea of fire endless, and soon the starry arena was burned to ashes, with countless ashes scattering everywhere.
As the flames burned, the sacred and solemn chanting echoed between heaven and earth. When the flames faded, the chanting faded as well.
"I didn't expect that at such a young age, your understanding of the Great Brahma Heaven Sutra is so profound. That's truly rare." Jiang Yizhou looked at Long Chen, a look of shock appearing on his face.
Jiang Yizhou was extremely shrewd and well-hidden. He never easily revealed his combat power, but when he made a move, it was always the most vicious and ruthless.
This blazing arrow shot seemed like an ordinary spell, but Jiang Yizhou had infused the essence of the Great Brahma Heavenly Sutra he had comprehended, simplifying the complex and hiding his strongest power.
With this strike, not only Mo Nian, but even a Heavenly Saint would suffer a heavy blow. Some were even caught off guard and died in defeat.
As soon as Jiang Yizhou made his move, Long Chen immediately sensed something was wrong. The palm he struck was also a condensation of flame power, empowered by the profound essence of the Great Brahma Heaven Scripture. This was a way to break the Great Brahma Heaven Scripture with it.
Long Chen was also secretly shocked. Jiang Yizhou was extremely cunning, able to disguise such a terrifying spell. If it weren't for his incredible perception, Mo Nian's arm would probably have been ruined.
"There are too many things you can't imagine. Since you're from Brahma Pill Valley, there's no need to waste words, right?" Long Chen said calmly.
Now, Long Chen was already a thorn in the side of Brahma Pill Valley, a thorn in his flesh; nothing he said now was meaningless.
"With so many people, we can't win. Besides, I don't want to drag the Yuling Clan into this. Do you have any good ideas?" Long Chen transmitted his voice to Mo Nian.
"There is a way, but we can't use it here, or the entire Demon-Subduing City will be destroyed. Forget it, the martial world is dangerous. If it doesn't work, we should retreat!" Mo Nian said helplessly.
"Do you have a way to withdraw?" Long Chen asked.
"That's what you said. You can question my combat ability, but never doubt my ability to escape." Mo Nian said with great confidence.
"Alright then, let's withdraw." Long Chen said.
"Should we test their strength? Together, they could take out one or two Heavenly Saint experts.
The two of us joined forces in fierce battle, escaping from dozens of Heavenly Saint experts, and even killed one or two at the same time. If word got out, how grand and arrogant would that be? Mo Nian gave a sinister smile, unwilling to just run away.
"No, if we make a move, Chief Yuluo definitely won't stand by and do nothing. If we run, what will happen to the Feather Spirit Clan?" Long Chen said hurriedly.
"This... Alright, you're right. Forget it, this time they're lucky. We'll deal with them when there's a chance. Mo Nian sighed helplessly and quietly reached into his arms.
At that moment, Xing Wujiang stepped forward, speaking calmly, "No need for nonsense. You people can get out of Demon-Subduing City now. Don't hold up my time treating someone to a meal." As
soon as Xing Wujiang spoke, everyone was shocked. No one expected Xing Wujiang to actually help Long Chen, and even to be ruthless to Jiang Yizhou and the others, telling them to get lost.
"Xing Wujiang, haven't you seen the situation clearly? You'll only be in the limelight for a few days now, aren't you afraid? Faced with Xing Wujiang's dismissal, Jiang Yizhou's expression turned cold.
"You're the one who can't see the situation clearly, aren't you? I, Xing Wujiang, have no children and no worries. Since the position of city lord is about to be lost at any moment, why not do something crazy? For example, while I can still control the power of the Fangtian Seal, I can bring sixteen Heavenly Saint experts to accompany me in the grave. Xing Wujiang looked at Jiang Yizhou, a mocking smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.
Hearing Xing Wujiang's words, Jiang Yizhou's expression changed. He looked at Xing Wujiang, as if trying to figure out whether Xing Wujiang was trying to scare him. After a moment, he snorted coldly and said,
"I hope you won't regret your decision."
After Jiang Yizhou finished speaking, his figure flickered, and the Heavenly Saint experts who had come with him vanished in an instant, as if they had never appeared.
"Tch, they're just a bunch of followers who follow orders, and they dare to threaten me?" Xing Wujiang sneered.
After saying that, he looked at Long Chen and said, "Come on, let's go eat together!" "
Are you taking me with you too?" Mo Nian asked.
"Of course,"
Xing Wujiang looked at Chief Yuluo and said, "I won't invite you. After all, the food we ordinary people eat doesn't really suit the tastes of the Yuling Clan. You're not worried I'll be bad for Long Chen, are you?" "
Chief Yuluo hesitated for a moment; she was truly uneasy. Although the Yuling Clan had been in Demon-Subduing City for countless years, she had never dealt much with Xing Wujiang, and besides, she didn't trust him much.
"Chief Yuluo, rest assured. I trust the City Lord." Long Chen said to Yu Luo.
Although Xing Wujiang always wore a bamboo hat and couldn't see his face, Long Chen sensed no hostility from his aura.
Moreover, since Xing Wujiang offended Jiang Yizhou for Long Chen's sake, the likelihood of harboring ill intentions toward Long Chen was extremely low. Moreover, Long Chen was full of curiosity about this city lord, because from him, Long Chen vaguely sensed a familiar aura.
But Long Chen couldn't quite describe what that aura was, so he was very curious to learn more about this mysterious city lord.
Seeing Long Chen insisting on going, Yu Luo didn't insist. She held Long Chen's hand and reminded him not to leave the city unless necessary. She would have someone wait for him in front of the city lord's mansion.
When Yuluo grabbed Long Chen's hand, his palm felt warm, and a rune appeared in his palm. Clearly, the Yuluo clan leader was still worried, so he left a rune for Long Chen so he could notify her at any time if there was danger.
Long Chen was deeply moved. Since entering Emperor Heaven, it was the first time someone had treated him so well. Long Chen nodded obediently, signaling Chief Yuluo to rest assured.
Under the watchful gaze of the Yuluo clan leader, Long Chen and Mo Nian followed Xing Wujiang's tall figure and disappeared from her sight.
