Chapter 313: Chapter 313: People from the Heavenly Demon Sect!
Cai Bin casually waved his hand, and a burst of Qi Force erupted. A fierce wind swept through, instantly dispersing the dust that had filled the sky.
At that mont, a deep crater ca into Cai Bin’s view. The ground was covered in a dense web of cracks that spread out like a spiderweb. Even the surrounding trees had been turned to dust. It was a testant to the sheer power contained within Cai Bin’s last palm strike.
And there was Long Chen, drenched in blood, looking utterly disheveled. The impact of the strike had only worsened his already grave injuries, leaving him in a terribly weakened state. Intense pain washed over him, making him feel as though his body were about to be torn apart.
Yet even so, his eyes remained full of determination. Bearing the excruciating pain, he slowly climbed out of the deep pit.
"Boy, I’ll give you one last chance," Cai Bin said, staring at Long Chen with a faint smile. "Hand over all your Secret Treasures and the Heaven Reaching Fruit. As long as you do as I say, I can be magnanimous for once and spare your pathetic life!"
"You want them?" Long Chen let out a sneer. "Don’t worry, I won’t let you get what you want even if I die!"
Hearing Long Chen’s words, the expression on Cai Bin’s face instantly froze. His eyes narrowed, a deep murderous intent gleaming within them.
"Very well! I’d like to see just how long that backbone of yours can hold out!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, Cai Bin’s figure flashed and vanished, leaving only an afterimage. In the blink of an eye, he appeared right in front of Long Chen and struck his shoulder with a palm.
PFFT!
Long Chen spat out a mouthful of blood and was sent flying backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily to the ground. He struggled to rise, getting to one knee.
He let out a chuckle. "Is that all you’ve got? Didn’t you eat? Your strength is nothing special. Or have you just gotten so old that it’s ti to kick the bucket?"
His mocking words imdiately infuriated Cai Bin.
"You brat, I’ll make you wish you were dead!" Cai Bin’s gaze turned icy.
He condensed a Qi Blade in his hand. With a casual flick of his wrist, the rapidly spinning blade shot toward Long Chen.
Long Chen knelt motionless on the ground. At this mont, he was like a lamb to the slaughter, with no strength left to resist. All that awaited him was death.
Watching the Qi Blade grow larger before him, Long Chen could only powerlessly close his eyes. The instant he did, the figure of Chu Lingjun appeared in his mind.
Suddenly...
THUD!
A dull impact sound suddenly echoed.
Long Chen’s eyes flew open. The Qi Blade that had been speeding toward him was gone.
"Who?!" Cai Bin was startled for a mont. His gaze swept around as he bellowed, "Who has the audacity to interfere in my business? Show yourself! Otherwise, once I get my hands on you, I will make you wish you were dead!"
"Hahaha—"
No sooner had Cai Bin finished his threat than wild, grating laughter echoed all around. Imdiately after, a powerful presence enveloped him. Even Cai Bin felt a chill run down his spine. His expression beca extrely grave.
The newcor was an expert! Moreover, his strength far exceeded Cai Bin’s. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be feeling such an intense sense of oppression.
His nerves tensed. He warily scanned his surroundings and shouted, "Who’s there, playing gas? Get out here and face your death!"
As soon as he spoke, a chilling voice replied, "For soone from the re Xuanyue Valley, that’s quite an arrogant boast."
As the voice faded, a figure suddenly appeared beside Long Chen. The newcor was a middle-aged man. He wore a black trench coat, his eyes were deep-set, and he radiated a sinister aura that made one want to keep their distance. Upon closer inspection, runes could be seen engraved on his neck.
Long Chen’s sharp eyes noticed the runic markings at first glance, and his brows furrowed slightly.
They seem familiar, like I’ve seen them sowhere before... That’s it! The Heavenly Demon Sect! The branch leader at Nine Demons Mountain, Yan Chen, had the exact sa runes on his neck. But everyone from that branch died, so it can’t be one of them. That only leaves one possibility... he’s from the Heavenly Demon Sect headquarters in the God-Devil Domain! Why would he show up here? Is he here for revenge too?!
At this thought, Long Chen’s brows furrowed deeply. The problem with Xuanyue Valley was far from over, and now another powerful expert had appeared. This was becoming a massive headache.
What should I do? This situation is incredibly tricky. I’ll just have to take it one step at a ti.
There was one more thing he didn’t know: this man was the very sa person who had gone to the Long Family and taken Long Dou away.
"A mber of the Heavenly Demon Sect?" Cai Bin’s expression grew solemn upon seeing the man. He asked in a deep voice, "This is a grudge between myself and this boy. Why are you interfering?"
"This boy cannot die," the man stated indifferently.
"Hmm?" Cai Bin asked, puzzled. "And why is that?"
"Does the Heavenly Demon Sect need to report its affairs to an old fossil like you?" the man retorted coldly. He took a step forward, and a powerful aura erupted from him, sweeping directly toward Cai Bin.
Facing this overwhelming pressure, Cai Bin felt his body sink as if Mount Tai itself were pressing down on his chest, making it difficult to breathe. The ground beneath his feet subsided slightly as a dense network of cracks spread out in all directions.
Instantly, Cai Bin’s brows furrowed deeply.
The Heavenly Demon Sect is a Second-class Power in the God-Devil Domain, ranked far above our Xuanyue Valley! More importantly, this man is clearly a formidable expert from the sect. The advantage I held just monts ago has vanished into thin air. But Long Chen has so many Secret Treasures, not to ntion the Heaven Reaching Fruit. If I can get those from him, Xuanyue Valley’s status in the God-Devil Domain will rise significantly in the coming years. It would guarantee us a place among the Second-class Powers!
After contemplating this, a resolute glint flashed in Cai Bin’s narrowed eyes.
He looked at the man and said, "I can spare his life, for your sake. But he must co with !"
