C148 – Let’s Play a Ga
At this instant, Dugu Lengyue’s complexion appeared extrely pallid, and her vitality was rapidly waning.
“Lengyue!”
Loong Chen urgently called out. Perhaps in response to his voice, Dugu Lengyue’s previously covered eyes abruptly snapped open.
When she laid eyes on Loong Chen, a glimr of exhilaration and astonishnt flickered in Dugu Lengyue’s gaze.
However, as she spotted Loong Chen being encircled by a horde of zombies in the distance, her elation and astonishnt transford into deep concern.
“Run!”
Dugu Lengyue was exceedingly feeble, so much so that even her voice ca out as a re whisper.
Nevertheless, from the movent of her lips, it was evident that she was urging Loong Chen to flee with all haste.
She recognized that Loong Chen alone wasn’t a match for these zombies.
“What an enticing Blood Qi; your bloodline might even surpass that of a High Rank.”
At this very mont, a captivating voice resonated.
In the ensuing mont, Loong Chen beheld a scholarly middle-aged man attired in white Zhongshan attire rising from his seat.
He possessed a pair of crimson-red pupils, bestowing upon him an exceedingly eerie appearance.
This had to be the “Emperor” to whom the zombies had referred.
The scholarly middle-aged man wore a charming smile upon spotting Loong Chen’s gaze directed at him.
His smile exuded an exquisite allure.
If one were unaware of the context, they would never associate him with a zombie.
“Right, let first introduce myself; I am the ruler of these zombies and their progenitor. Naturally, you may also address as Jiangchen.”
Loong Chen’s eyes widened in astonishnt.
In his previous existence, he held a profound interest in such mythical legends, and the na Jiangchen had not escaped his knowledge.
It was believed that Jiangchen was one of the ancestors of zombies. There were several ancestors of zombies, but Jiangchen was responsible for creating most of the later zombies.
He had the ability to forcibly infuse his own blood into other people’s bodies. If soone was bitten by him, they would transform into a zombie.
“You seem quite surprised. Have you encountered my na before?”
“But that doesn’t seem right. I have existed for tens of thousands of years, perhaps even hundreds of thousands of years. It’s unlikely that you would have heard of .”
Jiangchen expressed his surprise.
After a mont of astonishnt, Loong Chen regained his composure.
Regardless of whether this Jiangchen was the sa as the one he knew, it wasn’t the right ti to dwell on this.
Therefore, he addressed Jiangchen.
“Release them. If you have any grievances, co after . Didn’t you just ntion that my blood is exquisite? You’re correct; my bloodline has surpassed the High Rank and reached the King Level.”
“Let her go, and I’ll offer you my blood.”
With Dugu Lengyue in Jiangchen’s custody, Loong Chen didn’t dare to act recklessly.
Moreover, in a potential confrontation, he might not be a match for Jiangchen.
Dugu Lengyue, who was bound to the cross, vigorously shook her head upon hearing him. She implored Loong Chen to escape, but Loong Chen pretended not to notice.
He maintained his direct gaze on Jiangchen, awaiting his response.
Jiangchen smiled in response.
“I want both of them.”
Midway through his statent, Jiangchen abruptly changed the subject.
“The young girl also possesses a High Rank bloodline, while yours is a King rank bloodline. If I absorb both your blood, my strength should significantly recover.”
Dugu Lengyue had a naturally high bloodline grade due to her innate talents. Although not as extraordinary as Loong Chen’s, her bloodline had reached the High Rank.
In this world, most people had the lowest-grade bloodlines, and only a few possessed the highest-grade bloodlines.
These individuals had all been blessed by fate.
High-Rank bloodlines were exceedingly rare, even among this select group of individuals. This underscored their exceptional scarcity.
The possession of a King-Rank bloodline was even more extraordinary.
According to legends, the act of bloodsucking by zombies could enhance one’s strength. Therefore, Jiangchen was determined not to miss this opportunity.
“Jiangchen, do you perhaps possess an excessive degree of confidence? Release her, and I will honor my pledge to let you partake of my blood. However, should you persist in holding her captive, even if we et our demise together… I will obliterate your castle and your zombies!”
Loong Chen spoke in a frigid tone, making his threat crystal clear.
“How dare you, a re ant, issue threats to my king?”
A Silver-Eyed Zombie interjected before Jiangchen could respond, voicing his displeasure.
Other zombies also displayed signs of indignation. Loong Chen’s proclamation of intent to destroy them was a grave affront.
Being first and second-generation zombies with Jiangchen’s potent bloodline, they all considered themselves exceptionally noble beings.
They couldn’t tolerate Loong Chen insulting them in any way.
“Seize him and deliver him to our Emperor!”
The Silver-Eyed Zombie bellowed loudly, and the dozen or so first and second-generation zombies surrounding Loong Chen prepared to attack.
Long Chen readied himself for combat as well.
Jiangchen gestured with a wave of his hand, signaling them to stand down.
“How many tis must I remind you? Violence and bloodshed are far too crude.”
Jiangchen then turned his gaze toward Loong Chen, revealing a harmless smile.
“How about we play a ga?”
“A ga?”
Loong Chen was taken aback. He couldn’t comprehend Jiangchen’s intentions.
Jiangchen maintained his charming smile and continued speaking.
“I’ve heard soone say that love is the greatest strength of zombies, but I don’t believe it. So, I want to test it. Even though you’re not a zombie, I believe it should hold true for humans as well.”
“You must deeply care for her, right? I can see that you’d go to great lengths to save her.”
Loong Chen inquired, “What are you getting at?”
Suddenly, Loong Chen felt a sense of unease. He had a hunch that Jiangchen was up to sothing.
“What I an is quite straightforward. I want to kill her right before your eyes. I want to see if you can unleash extraordinary power, as I’ve heard.”
Having said that, Jiangchen approached Dugu Lengyue.
He raised Dugu Lengyue’s collar with one hand, exposing her fair neck.
“So alluring.”
Jiangchen took a deep breath, baring his sharp teeth.
Loong Chen protested, “Don’t lay a hand on her!”
Loong Chen’s fury flared up instantly, and his eyes turned crimson.
He let out a primal roar, ready to charge at Jiangchen.
At that mont, the dozen zombies surrounding him rushed forward, attempting to restrain Loong Chen.
“Get out of my way, all of you!”
Loong Chen shouted vehently, and a trident materialized in his hand out of nowhere. He imdiately unleashed his most potent technique: One Halberd Annihilation.
In his rage, Loong Chen held nothing back.
He slew one of the green-eyed zombies.
Simultaneously, the other zombies assailed Loong Chen.
“Divine Might.”
The Black Hole Vortex manifested around Loong Chen’s body, absorbing the zombies’ assaults.
However, their sheer numbers overwheld the Black Hole Vortex. The remaining attacks struck Loong Chen.
Loong Chen coughed up several mouthfuls of blood.
Nevertheless, he harnessed this montum to charge at Jiangchen.
With the trident in hand, Loong Chen thrust it towards Jiangchen with all his might.
