Chapter 5237 Kill Every Last One
Bai Yingxue and the youngsters of the white dragon race were filled with shock as they were familiar with Long Chen’s voice. If it weren’t for him, all of them would have been sacrificed to the Heavenly Flame Sourcestone.
Although Long Chen’s voice wasn’t particularly melodious, to their ears, it was more comforting than the sweetest music. It brought them a sense of security. Every time they heard it, danger seemed to turn into opportunity, no matter how hopeless the situation was. It was like nothing could knock down the master of this voice.
When the white dragon race cried out Long Chen’s name, the rest of the dragon experts were taken aback. They all recognized his name.
When Bai Yingxuan brought the white dragon race’s disciples back to the Dragon Domain, they carried news that shook their world—Long Chen had destroyed the Heavenly Flame Devil Domain and Glacial Heaven Domain. With a fresh Eternal realm cultivation base, he had killed Han Qianye, a Domain Lord backed by faith energy.
At first, almost no one believed the news. After all, someone who had just advanced to the Eternal realm wouldn’t have time to awaken their Heavenly Fate Disk. Without it, a normal expert couldn’t even match a half-step Human Emperor, let alone Han Qianye, a Domain Lord backed by faith energy. In everyone’s mind, such an existence couldn’t die at Long Chen’s hands.
However, the white dragon race didn't just bring stories; they brought proof—a photographic jade recording Long Chen’s exploits in the Glacial Heaven Domain. The photographic jade confirmed that the sovereign dragon race was not dead and resided in the depths of the Endless Desolation, alongside other dragon races. This revelation shook the Dragon Domain even further.
But this news also caused factions to form. Could they trust Long Chen’s words? Was he truly reliable, or was this some elaborate ruse?
When people raised their suspicions, the white dragon race was enraged. Long Chen had slaughtered the elites of the various races in the Heavenly Flame Domain, planting the seeds of enmity throughout the world just to save the dragon race. How could they doubt such a figure? Furthermore, some even suggested that Long Chen could be a pawn of Pill Valley, sent to deceive them into venturing into the dangerous depths of the Endless Desolation.
After all, the Endless Desolation was filled with dangers. As the Dragon Domain was just a single day’s travel from it, their disciples often went to the border to gain experience. Hence, they knew how terrifying the Endless Desolation was. Even near the border, there were terrifying demonic beasts lurking around. What dangers might lie deeper? If this was one of Pill Valley’s schemes to make them enter the depths, wouldn’t they be conned?
As long as their disciples didn’t provoke the terrifying existences when they ventured into the Endless Desolation, they would be relatively safe. But that was only within a limited region near the border. They didn’t dare to go any further.
If they provoked some terrifying existence, the latter could even wipe out the Dragon Domain. As a result, while they were excited to hear that their ancestors were in the depths of the Endless Desolation, after calming down and thinking about it, they somehow felt that Long Chen’s words were not trustworthy.
Their doubts weren’t entirely unfounded. After all, this would decide the future of the Dragon Domain. If they made the wrong choice, it would be catastrophic for them.
Just as they were wrestling with this decision, the Netherdragon race and their henchmen made their move. Their hidden power reserves were revealed, and they brought an army of Heaven Saints, Human Emperors, and half-step Human Emperors—forces that could rival nearly half of the Dragon Domain’s top experts. This sudden show of strength shocked everyone.
The Netherdragon race and their henchmen had taken over twenty percent of the Dragon Domain, and their power was enough to dominate the entire Dragon domain.
The Dragon Domain was split into three factions: the traitors led by the Netherdragon race, the opposition led by the red dragon race, and the conservative faction. The first two factions almost fought to the death several times.
The main thing preventing their ultimate clash was the third faction. Although they also detested the traitorous Netherdragon race, they maintained their rationality and sought to prevent a full-scale war that would weaken the entire dragon race. With terrifying threats looming at their borders and Pill Valley waiting for an opportunity, the conservative faction knew that if the two sides were to truly wage war, it could mean the end of the Dragon Domain.
Thanks to the efforts of the conservative faction, the Dragon Domain was temporarily peaceful, but the atmosphere was still tense. Although the actual battle had yet to erupt, it might do so at any moment. But at the very least, they managed to buy some time.
Underneath the calm surface of the Dragon Domain were simmering cinders, and one spark would cause a firestorm that devoured the entire domain.
The Netherdragon race saw their hesitation. In the end, the Dragon Domain did not have the courage to fight them to the death, so the Netherdragon race could just swagger into the Dragon Domain. They expressed that they had no idea about the white dragon race being sacrificed back then, and that everything was controlled by the Brahma Pill Valley.
Afterward, they expressed their regrets over that matter, as any conflicts within the dragon race should be settled by themselves.
They subtly planted seeds of doubt about Long Chen’s intentions, claiming that he was using the trace of Sovereign blood in his body to collaborate with the white dragon race and make them pawns of the High Firmament Academy.
The dragon experts sneered at this idea, saying that Long Chen was only a human. Even if he had a trace of dragon blood, so what? Would the dragon race really listen to a little human?
After hearing this, Bai Yingxuan and the others instantly realized that the Netherdragon race had made the first move to crush their hopes.
The white dragon race secretly tried to explain things to the other dragon experts. But in the end, the dragon race was just too prideful. No matter how much Long Chen had done for the dragon race, there was no way they would accept being ordered by him.
Most frightening of all, some dragon experts had begun questioning Long Chen’s motives. Their impression of him was worsening, all thanks to the Netherdragon race’s schemes.
Although the white dragon race was held in high regard in the Dragon Domain, they found themselves under suspicion due to their association with him. Bai Yingxuan and the others felt the icy stares of their peers and could only watch helplessly as the situation worsened.
Today, hearing the white dragon race call out Long Chen’s name, almost all the dragon experts present turned frosty.
So, when Long Chen’s name was called out by the white dragon race, the already tense atmosphere became colder. Almost all the dragon experts present showed hostility. As Long Chen slowly stepped out of the war chariot, the entire Dragonblood Legion followed. His gaze swept over the Netherdragon race, and a slow smile crept across his face.
Long Chen said, “To stand so confidently beside traitors—you might as well buy a block of tofu and kill yourselves with it.”
The Netherdragon experts bristled with killing intent, but before they could respond, Long Chen waved his hand.
“Dragonblood Legion, hear my order! Annihilate the Netherdragon race! If anyone tries to stop you, kill every last one of them!”
BOOM!
With a thunderous boom, the Dragonblood Legion’s manifestations exploded into the air. Countless dragon cries echoed through heaven and earth, and with Blood Qi surging, the Dragonblood warriors charged forward like unleashed tigers, ready to wreak havoc.
