He was clear that the Martial Alliance was a bunch of thieves.

“You dare call us criminals? Do you want to die? Do you think you’re amazing just because you’ve killed Martial Emperor Yang? We still have Zhao Danchen and Martial Overlord Zhao Wuji. He could kill you in a single strike.” The Martial Alliance members were frustrated that Yang Ningfeng was dead, but all they could do now was accept the results.

Zhao Danchen took a deep breath.

He chose to endure.

It was foolish for him to fight Long Chen right now. He wasn’t an idiot, so he chose to retreat for now. He gestured for the others to be quiet before he looked at Long Chen. “Long Chen, I’ve underestimated you. The Martial Alliance lost to you today, and you are qualified to be called an expert. Still, no expert has ever opposed the Martial Alliance and lived. We have the Nine Spirit Purgatory, a place that even those at the Fourth Earthly Martial Stage have failed to escape.”

He looked down at his white hands, “I admit defeat, but only for today. I warn you not to get cocky. Your days are numbered. Goodbye.”

He then left.

Zhao Danchen\'s reaction scared Long Chen.

A strong person was indeed frightening, but one who could endure was even worse. Even if Zhao Danchen had gone all out today, he could not have done anything to Long Chen, so he had chosen to retreat even though his status was higher.

Zhao Danchen is a difficult enemy …

Zhao Danchen suddenly came back and smiled wickedly. “Oh, I forgot to tell you. One month from now, I will be marrying Liu Yiyi, the daughter of the Clear Shallows King from the Ancient Demon Domain. Don’t forget to come and celebrate our union.”

He laughed and left with the Martial Alliance.

It was clear that the message was intended for Long Chen and Jiang Wuya, because Long Chen had spent some time with Liu Yiyi and Jiang Wuya was her father.

“What?!” Both Long Chen and Jiang Wuya were shocked. They were immersed in the joy of victory when the sudden announcement hit them.

Long Chen did not chase after Zhao Danchen but instead helped Jiang Wuya up. “Second Brother, don’t be too rash now. If he’s telling the truth, we can come up with a plan.”

“Bastard,” Jiang Wuya snarled. “It must have been that old crone Jiang Wuxie that came up with that idea. He knows that Liu Yiyi is my daughter.”

Long Chen thought the same.

“Calm down for now.” Long Chen looked around. “Now that the crisis of the Martial Alliance has been resolved, we should rest before we plan for our next steps.”

Lei Zhen nodded and looked at Long Chen with gratitude. “Thank you, Seventh Brother. I represent the entire Battle clan when I kneel to you in gratitude.”

He was very happy with the way things had concluded, but Long Chen stopped him. “Fourth Brother, we are all siblings here. This is my duty.”

Lei Zhen didn’t kneel, but the other six Battle Kings did. They said nothing, but the gratitude in their eyes explained everything.

“Please get up.”

“You are the benefactor of the Battle clan. We will remember your name and pass it down to the next generation.” Lei Zhen started to sob a little as he looked at the others.

Long Chen didn’t need that, but he was happy.

It felt good to help others.

But he frowned at the bad news. “We won this time, but we have two problems … Fourth Brother, let’s come up with a plan first for the Dragon clan.”

Lei Zhen nodded and instructed the other six Battle Kings, “You go and deal with the aftermath. Spread news of the prowess and the victory of our clan!”

They nodded and started spreading the news of their victory. The Divine Martial Empire would be shaken once word got out.

Long Chen was like a rising star that shone brighter than the other Long Chen.

After the adrenaline wore off, the Dragon clan was worried. Jiang Wuya was inconsolable. “Liu Yiyi never met Zhao Danchen before and he is certain to treat her badly. Jiang Wuxie, that bastard. How dare he push her into the fire. No, I must find Jiang Wuxie, but Yue’er …”

Zhao Danchen had brought two pieces of news. One was about Liu Yiyi and the other was about Long Yue. Long Chen had a feeling that Long Yue had been imprisoned in the Nine Spirit Purgatory. Although the chances of rescuing her were slim, Long Chen refused to give up.

Long Chen saw how conflicted Jiang Wuxie was. On one side was the woman he loved, while the other was his daughter. He didn’t want to give up on either side.

Long Chen didn’t want to comment on Jiang Wuxie’s love history. He knew that Jiang Wuxie loved Long Yue all this time, but didn’t know that the Clear Shallows King was pregnant with his child. The appearance of his daughter must’ve messed him up. He had to decide between his responsibility as a father and the woman he was pursuing. Even he himself didn’t know what to do.

Long Chen had to make the decision for him.

“Second Brother, I will go to Martial Overlord City. You will go to the Ancient Demon Domain.”

“You will go to Martial Overlord City?” Jiang Wuya raised his head.

Long Chen nodded. “I’m stronger than you, and those at the Third Earthly Martial Stage cannot win against me. You would be marching to your death, considering even Long Yue was captured. I am telling the truth. I might be able to save Long Yue. As for the Ancient Demon Domain, you and the Demon Emperor are brothers. Only you can save Liu Yiyi.”

Long Chen was right, and Jiang Wuya was not the type to hesitate for long. He pondered and nodded. He was worried about Long Yue, but there was nothing he could do to help her.

“What about us?” Lan Xiang’er asked Long Chen. Unbeknownst to them, Long Chen had become their main pillar of strength.

“You guys …” Long Chen pondered. “Martial Overlord City is dangerous, so it’s safer for me to move alone. Second Brother needs more people to help him, so let Third Brother go do that. You and Fifth Brother can help our Fourth Brother here. If we are not here, the Battle clan needs some experts to back them up. Since we don’t have a base right now, let’s make one here. What do you think?”

Everyone nodded in agreement, but they were still worried for Long Chen. Lan Xiang’er asked, “Seventh Brother, will you be alright going to Martial Overlord City on your own? The Nine Spirit Purgatory is located in the inner city, where no one else is allowed to enter except for the core members of the Martial Alliance and their families. Don’t you think you’ll be in danger?”

Long Chen agreed that it was dangerous. “I don’t know much about the place. Can you explain it to me? What should I look out for? Second Brother, since you are injured, why not take some time to recover before you head to the Ancient Demon Domain? Zhao Danchen said that there’s still a month, so I can use that time to investigate.”

Chi Ying nodded. “I will arrange for some men to send details about Martial Overlord City, as well as gather information on Long Yue and Liu Yiyi.”

Information was crucial. The Red Souls had an extensive information network, so Chi Ying was the perfect candidate to gather it.

After everything had been set, everyone left the ancestral mausoleum to plan their next course of action.

The Battle clan was immersed in joy, and Long Chen watched them celebrate their victory. They shouted, drank, sang, and danced as they turned the place into their personal heaven.

All of them were extremely thankful for Long Chen, and they looked at him with gratitude. Long Chen was showered with gifts. If it wasn’t for Lei Zhen stopping them, Long Chen would’ve been buried by the gifts.

Everyone in the Battle clan knew who had saved them.

After they reached their temporary residences, Lan Xiang’er said to Long Chen, “Back in the Cloud Dream Swamp, I watched a lone Martial King get killed by a King-tier demonic beast. I used his skin to make a mask and then burned his body. I think he’s considered missing by the Martial Alliance, so we can use his identity now. You can impersonate him and enter Martial Overlord City. I will ask Fifth Brother to gather as much detail as possible about the Martial King called Chen Guangjun. I also have the manuals for the martial techniques he cultivated in my Universe Pouch.”

Long Chen nodded in approval.

Lan Xiang’er’s talent was very rare. She was called the Ever-Changing Demon Girl, someone who could not only change her appearance, but also the appearance of others. Long Chen would have no issues turning into Chen Guangjun with her technique.
