Chapter 5686 The Dragon Sovereign’s Heart-Devil, Zhu Yin
That figure slowly raised his head. Long Chen saw it was a handsome man with sharp, slanting eyebrows and a pair of eyes that looked like violet gemstones in the night sky.
Little Nine also had violet eyes. But Little Nine’s eyes were filled with swirling runes. Those runes were of various colors and shades, and made its eyes look beautiful.
But these eyes were the purest, deepest violet. It was a violet full of majesty and nobility. These eyes gave people an urge to kneel and kowtow.
These pure violet eyes were like bottomless pools. The deeper you looked, the more frightening they appeared. It felt like there was endless darkness hidden within the depths of these eyes, a darkness that desired to swallow the whole world.
“Friend, you’ve very handsome!”
Long Chen warmly greeted the chained man.
This man ignored Long Chen. The arrogance in his eyes seemed to say that he didn’t even deign to speak to Long Chen.
“Sorry, I take back what I said. Let me start over…” said Long Chen hastily when he got no response from him.
That man’s pupils finally turned to Long Chen. He smiled derisively, seemingly looking down on him even more.
“... You piece of trash.”
Just as that man thought that Long Chen was afraid, Long Chen said such a thing, causing his gaze to turn cold.
“Xiu Yang, I know you’re here. I hear your current situation is even worse than mine. Do you no longer have the face to meet me? Hahaha!”
The violet-eyed man laughed, ignoring Long Chen.
“Zhu Yin, it’s been many years. You still hate me, don’t you?” The primal chaos Dragon Sovereign’s voice rang out in this space.
The primal chaos Dragon Sovereign’s voice didn’t have any anger. It was very calm. But it also seemed slightly sorrowful, or perhaps regretful.
“Of course I hate you. You suppressed me for countless years, making me live a life worse than death. Am I supposed to be grateful?” The violet-eyed man was the primal chaos Dragon Sovereign’s heart-devil. Its name was Zhu Yin.
Long Chen shrugged. “You were the one who refused to actually work at yourself. Why blame others?”
“Shut your mouth!” Zhu Yin roared. Veins throbbed on its forehead. The violet light in its eyes grew. A sharp, evil aura erupted, filling this space.
Long Chen’s ears were blasted by this voice. He covered his ears with his hands and shook his head. “Shouting is meaningless. To use a phrase I say very often, if the power of your throat represented power, then donkeys would have long since taken control of this world.”
“You…” Zhu Yin was incensed. In all its years with the primal chaos Dragon Sovereign, it had never encountered an opponent like Long Chen. Long Chen was absolutely enraging. “Xiu Yang, are you looking down on me by bringing such a piece of trash to me!?”
“Zhu Yin, it’s been so many years. You are as wild as ever. Your intelligence hasn’t grown at all. Do you feel like he isn’t qualified to challenge you?” asked the primal chaos Dragon Sovereign.
“Hm? Challenge me? Hahaha!”
Zhu Yin laughed like he had heard the world’s funniest joke. That wild laughter made this space shudder and flicker. Long Chen’s head throbbed, but he didn’t say a word.
“I was stripped away from you before you advanced to the Emperor realm. Although you placed layers of sealed, I already have thirteen core veins. I’m half a step into the Emperor realm. Look around at the current world. You are the only one who can possibly defeat me. But you sent some little fellow with only nine heaven veins to me? Are you trying to make me laugh to death? Hahaha!”
Zhu Yin didn’t stop laughing. He eventually said, “Do you think that I don’t know? You definitely have some scheme set up. Perhaps you’re using some scapegoat to draw my attention before you attack me and devour my energy? Xiu Yang, you’ve really fallen. Do you think that I’d fall for it?
“Zhu Yin, you’re thinking too much. No matter what situation I’m in, I am still the dragon race’s Sovereign Xiu Yang. If I wanted to target you, I wouldn’t use someone else’s hands. I’d also disdain using such sinister schemes. First of all, I won’t be lending Long Chen my power. In this space, I’m also unable to lend him my power. Secondly, I believe that Long Chen has the power to fight you. Don’t look down on him. Everyone who has looked down on him has already died. If you still have any of the dignity of the dragon race, if you still have any pride of an early Sovereign, you will share the energy of the dragon pillars with Long Chen. Let him condense thirteen dragon veins before having a fair battle. Do you dare?” said the primal chaos Dragon Sovereign.
Long Chen’s heart shook. It seemed that the primal chaos Dragon Sovereign had already planned for this. If he wanted to advance, he would need the power of those dragon pillars.
Realizing what the primal chaos Dragon Sovereign was planning, Long Chen patted his chest and said, “It’s fine, if he doesn’t dare, I’ll beat him with just the power of nine veins. I have that confidence.”
Zhu Yin laughed. “Hahaha, do you two take me for a fool? You want to use the power of the dragon pillars to help him cultivate? Keep dreaming. It was with great difficulty that I expelled the sealing power and kept the essence in the dragon pillars. It’s all in preparation for me to break the seal and merge with the laws of the Heavenly Daos. Then I will instantly break through to the Emperor realm. You think that I’d split this power with this brat? You’re too naive.”
The primal chaos Dragon Sovereign indifferently said, “That probably isn’t up to you. When the altar breaks, the dragon pillars will also break. Their power will instantly be unleashed, and it would still be split between you two.”
“What a joke. Who says that I’m going to break the altar?” sneered Zhu Yin.
“If you don’t break the altar, you will at most have the power of nine veins. Are you not worried?” asked the primal chaos Dragon Sovereign.
“Hahaha, other than you, no one in the same realm is a match for me. Do you think that I’d be afraid of some human?” sneered Zhu Yin.
Long Chen suddenly realized that the primal chaos Dragon Sovereign had led the conversation here step by step. It was all to ensure a battle between him and Zhu Yin in the same realm. This way, they could fight nine veins against nine veins. That was the only way he had any hope of victory.
The primal chaos Dragon Sovereign understood Zhu Yin’s power all too well. If Zhu Yin used the power of thirteen veins, then even a hundred Long Chens wouldn’t be a match for him.
Currently, his goal had been achieved. All that remained was to see what Long Chen had up his sleeves. The primal chaos Dragon Sovereign actually felt no assurance that Long Chen would win.
The chains on Zhu Yin’s body began to creak and crack. Suddenly, those chains burst apart. Zhu Yin was freed.
He came up to Long Chen. He was a full head taller than him. His powerful Blood Qi felt like a volcano on the verge of eruption. He gave off a suffocating pressure. Even before fighting, this aura alone could cause despair.
“Wait a moment!”
Long Chen hastily raised his hand. He summoned Evilmoon and put it on his back.
“Are you ready?” Zhu Yin sneered upon seeing Long Chen take out a weapon.
“One more moment!”
Long Chen clenched his fist. Divine light condensed on top of it. Suddenly, he struck his own abdomen. Blood sprayed from his mouth, dyeing the front of his robes red. He then collapsed on the ground.
Both the primal chaos Dragon Sovereign and Zhu Yin were flabbergasted. They both shouted, “What the hell are you doing?!”
Just then, darkness expanded in Long Chen’s eyes. His eyes turned black. Then his robes turned white. An icy, sinister aura rose.
“He…”
At this moment, even the primal chaos Dragon Sovereign was stunned.
