Chapter 752: Suspicious



She then asked in a cold voice, “Who are you? Why are you standing so close to my younger sister?”

Long Chen sensed very obvious enmity from Suxue. It was understandable as her younger sister really was a little gullible and seemed to be the exact kind who could be easily tricked and manipulated. That was why Suxue thought Long Chen had malicious intent.

“Big Sister, you’re mistaken. Big Brother is not a bad person. I ran into a little trouble, and he saved me,” Suyan hurriedly explained while hugging her sister.

“Are you kidding? He’s only at the Fifth Earthly Martial Stage; how could he have saved you? Yan’er, tell me what happened. Have you been tricked by him?” Su Xue looked at Long Chen cautiously with disgust in her eyes.

Long Chen did not know what made her hate him so much. Since she insisted on looking down on him, his gaze turned cold and he said, “What do you mean by that? Is this how the princess of the Demon clan treats her guests?”

The Nine Great Clans were actually the Nine Great Empires. Every clan leader was actually the leader of their empire. People like Feng Zhilin and Suxue were usually called princesses in their empires.

Suxue never expected Long Chen to be so rude to her, or even mock her using her own title, so she became furious. Long Chen was a mere Fifth Earthly Martial Stage cultivator, and yet he dared speak to her that way. She had never met a person like him before.

To be honest, she was beautiful with a fairy-like aura, a stark contrast to the cold and arrogant Feng Zhilin. However, Long Chen had met many beautiful girls before, and it did not matter how pretty she was. If she was rude to him, he could not be bothered to be nice either.

“Do you want to die?” A powerful killing intent surged towards Long Chen.

“Big Sister!” Suyan was a little angry now. She stood in front of Long Chen with a frown and said, “As I said, Big Brother saved me. He’s the reason why I’m still alive!”

When she saw her younger sister so insistent, Suxue froze for a moment. Her sister had never dared speak to her this way before. Although she was a little mischievous, she had always been obedient in front of other people. And she really loved her younger sister too.

Suxue finally let go of her assumptions, peered at Long Chen strangely, and then said, “Yan’er, what happened?”

When Suyan saw that her sister had dropped her hostility towards Long Chen, she sighed in relief and said, “I’ll tell you while we walk back.”

Suxue nodded, then she looked at Long Chen and said, “Is he also going to Heavenly Wood City?”

Suyan nodded and said, “Of course. He still needs to treat me.”

“Treat?” There were many things Suxue was desperate to know, so she flew up to the city on the tree, leading the group.

“Big Brother, apologies. My older sister may be short-tempered towards strangers, but after you get to know her, you’ll find her to be a good person,” said Suyan anxiously while they traveled, as she was worried that Long Chen would be upset.

Long Chen smiled and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t pin this on her. A gentleman does not dwell on another person’s shortcomings.”

“You!” Suxue turned around and glared at him furiously. She wanted to rage at him, but she saw how pitiful her younger sister looked. Then she suppressed her anger and said to Suyan, “Yan’er, come to my side and tell me what happened.”

“Alright.” Suyan nodded obediently and went to Suxue’s side. The people of the Demon and Thunder clans followed behind the three of them. They looked at the trio curiously because the two sisters were whispering, so no one knew what they were talking about.

“What?!” Suyan had only spoken for a little while when Suxue’s face changed. She gripped Suyan’s arm hard and almost yelled, but when she realized this matter had to be kept hushed, she suppressed her shock and asked anxiously, “Yan’er, are you being serious? One of them touched you gently, and you became like this? And you’d die in a day from old age?”

Suyan was also antsy when she saw how anxious Suxue was. She said hurriedly, “Yes. I hid in the cold lake and realized that my body stopped aging. But when I got out, I immediately started to age again. If Big Brother hadn’t been passing by and saved me with a magical pill, I would be dead by now!”

As she spoke, Suyan started to cry.

Suyan’s face turned pale and there was a deep anxiety in her gaze. She checked her sister up and down in a panic, but she could not find anything strange.

“Big Sister, don’t worry. Big Brother gave me a pill and said that I wouldn’t become old for ten days. Then he said that if I took his pill once every ten days for the next hundred days, I would recover completely. That is why I said he saved my life! You believe me now, right?”

When Suyan saw tears welling up in her sister’s eyes, she quickly gave her the positive news to assure her.

“Really?” Suxue froze. To be honest, she did not believe that Long Chen, a young cultivator merely at the Fifth Earthly Martial Stage, could save Suyan from such a terrifying spell.

Suxue looked at him mildly and asked, “Are you an alchemist?”

Long Chen recalled the promise between himself and Suyan, then nodded without a word.

Suxue eyed him for a while but did not find anything wrong. So she looked away from him and said to Suyan, “What happened to you is very serious. We must go and meet Father now! And you! Follow us!”

She pointed at Long Chen as she spoke.

“Big Brother, come meet my Father, alright?” Suyan knew how scary her father could be, so she wanted to hear Long Chen out.

Long Chen knew that he would need to meet the Demon clan leader, Bai Lan, sooner or later due to his reason for coming to Heavenly Wood City. Might as well get it over with sooner. That was why he had no comment. He nodded at Suyan and said, “It’s alright.”

His attitude towards the two sisters was completely different. He was cold towards Suxue but friendly to Suyan. This made Suxue embarrassed and angry, knowing that Long Chen was doing it on purpose.

You’re just a manipulative fake! Once you meet my father, you’ll suffer! If you’re a crook, you’ll never escape my father’s eyes!

Suxue privately dissed him.

Long Chen followed them up the gigantic tree trunk and wove through the tree branches and leaves. The city was like a bird’s nest on a tree, and it was gigantic too. Long Chen looked up and could faintly see the silhouette of the city. Although it was on a tree, the city was much larger than Black Gold City. It was similar to Giant Metal City of the Metal District!

Long Chen followed Suxue past the city walls to the beautiful Heavenly Wood City. When he finally laid eyes on the city, he was slightly astonished as the previous city he saw was in ruins with dilapidated wooden houses everywhere. Heavenly Wood City, however, was like a paradise. It was no wonder the Thunder and Demon clans would build their base here.

Long Chen stood on the tall city walls and looked across the city. The whole city was covered in a layer of white mist, like the legendary palace of immortals. The only difference was that the city was filled with beautiful wooden houses. This city had brought the art of building with wood to its peak. He realized that the houses were not just buildings, but pieces of art.

All types of hyper-realistic wooden sculptures peeked through the mist. When the breeze blew gently, many sophisticated wooden buildings became visible. It was the first time he had seen such beautiful structures.

“Big Brother, this place is beautiful, isn’t it? I want to live here forever. If it wasn’t for the fact that we can only stay in the Ancient Graveyard for a year, I would have asked Father to let me stay here forever. I’ve never seen such a beautiful and elegant city built on a tree in my life,” said Suyan energetically.

“You almost died and you’re talking about the city!” Suxue scolded her. “Let’s not waste any more time. Come and meet Father with me now.”

“Alright.” Suyan stuck out her tongue, then followed Suxue and Long Chen. They flew in the sky above Heavenly Wood City, heading towards Bai Lan’s quarters. Long Chen knew that soon, he would be standing in front of a live Heavenly Martial Realm master. He had seen Bai Lan once on the star plate, but at the time, he did not know his name. This man who had received the Divine Demon Lord’s inheritance was one of the strongest masters in the Nine Great Clans, also in the whole Ten Thousand Nations Territory!

Very soon, Long Chen was close. Using his Soul Swallowing Gaze, he spotted two powerful souls in the destination ahead. One had an aura as violent as lightning and thunder, while the other was like a deep black hole.
