Chapter 5787 Fierce
The tablet flashing on his waist indicated that Luo Yanfeng and the others were in the middle of a critical fight. From the moment Luo Yanfeng brought Long Chen into their group, their tablets had been connected.
If they were ever scattered on the battlefield, the tablets would help them find each other, potentially saving their lives. The urgent flashing indicated that they had reached the point of igniting their heaven veins. Long Chen had warned them before—igniting their heaven veins should be an absolute last resort.
Even if they were forced to do so, they had to eliminate their enemies swiftly and return to normal as soon as possible. After all, relying on this kind of sacrificial power would hinder their overall growth, stalling their advancement and potentially even causing regression.
Long Chen’s figure shot through the air like a streak of lightning. Countless devil experts barely managed to sense his presence before he flashed past them. They didn’t have a chance to stop him.
…
“Luo Yanfeng, next year on this day will be the anniversary of your death. Too bad Long Chen ran off to who knows where, or this would have been perfect,” Bi Yingxue sneered as she stared at Luo Yanfeng and the others.
Luo Yanfeng’s group was completely surrounded by tens of thousands of Bi family experts. It was as if the Bi family had gone insane, mobilizing all their strongest elites. Most importantly, all of them had undergone the totemic blessing.
Luo Yanfeng and his group had just returned to the battlefield through a transportation formation when they were immediately ambushed. It was as if their every move had been tracked.
Moreover, a powerful formation had been activated to block them from sending distress signals to the Luo family. There was no escape. They were completely trapped.
“Kill! Kill all the ingrates of the Luo family! Once they are slain, the Luo family will never be able to rise again!”
The Bi family’s experts charged forward like ravenous wolves.
However, they quickly discovered that the Luo family’s disciples were far stronger than anticipated. Using their battle formations, the Luo family’s disciples managed to withstand the onslaught.
The battlefield was bathed in blood. Within a short span, nearly a hundred Luo family disciples had fallen, but in return, they had slain thousands of Bi family experts.
Seeing his comrades fall, Luo Yanfeng almost went insane. He wanted nothing more than to charge out and cut down Bi Yingxue. However, he knew that if he left the formation, they would lose their strongest pillar. Without him, their defenses would crumble, leading to even more deaths.
Even if he killed Bi Yingxue, what then? If he was the only survivor, what would be the point?
“Bi Yingxue, you wretched slut! We shouldn’t have spared you last time!” Luo Ying shouted furiously.
“Oh? Am I supposed to be grateful?” Bi Yingxue cackled. “Well, in return, I’ll make sure not even a trace of your corpse remains, so the world isn’t tainted by your filth. Hahaha!”
Bi Yingxue stood outside the battlefield, watching the fight with three other top experts from the Bi family. Unlike the lower-ranked Bi family disciples, these four weren’t in a hurry to join the fray.
“We should stop wasting time,” said a burly man among them. “If Long Chen hasn’t shown up yet, he probably won’t. We need to finish this quickly. We still have to make it look like they were killed by the devil race afterward, so we don’t have that much time.”
“I agree,” added a tall, thin man. “Even if we don’t get Long Chen today, there will be other chances. As per the order from the higher-ups, we have to finish this quickly. We can’t afford any mishaps.”
The third man, whose face was riddled with pockmarks, smirked. “Honestly, it doesn’t matter. We’ve already declared war on the Luo family. Once these elites are dead, the Bi family will rule the violet blood race. We can’t let Long Chen run off. He humiliated us, so he must be made an example of. This might be our best chance to kill him, so I think we should wait just a little longer. Perhaps he is currently rushing over? We don’t know.”
These three were the Bi family’s hidden monsters, just like Bi Yingxue. The burly one was Bi Ta, the thin one was Bi Yong, and the pockmarked one had a rather nice name, Bi Tianxing[1].
They were all infamous figures within the violet blood race, yet their true strength had been carefully concealed. Only the highest-ranking members of the Bi family knew the full extent of their abilities.
The four of them were completely calm as they watched the battle play out. It was as if everything were under their control. They weren't in a rush, and even the deaths of the Bi family disciples didn’t seem to affect them.
Bi Yingxue scoffed. “Honestly, I think the higher-ups are being overly cautious. The Luo family’s bloodline isn’t as powerful as the legends claim. I could wipe them out myself.”
Shaking his head, Bi Tianxing said, “The family head himself warned that the Luo family’s bloodline awakens slowly but possesses immense potential. Once their blood truly awakens, our Bi family will be suppressed. You can already see the signs—it’s beginning. We must not let them grow any further.”
Below them, the Bi family disciples attacked furiously, while the Luo family disciples counterattacked with all their might. Both sides were taking losses, causing violet blood to stain the ground.
“Brothers, sisters,” Luo Yanfeng said, his voice grim. “There doesn’t seem to be any hope left for us today. The Bi family has thrown everything at us. They’re using us as bait to lure Long Chen. He’ll definitely avenge us. However, if we hold out any longer, he’ll come charging in and fight to the death. We can’t let that happen. You understand?”
His comrades nodded grimly. They could see it clearly—Bi Yingxue and the others weren’t attacking yet because they were waiting for Long Chen.
If they died, Long Chen would avenge them. But if they were still alive, he would stay and fight, no matter the odds. He definitely wouldn’t abandon them to run away himself.
“Big Brother Yanfeng, the best thing in my life was meeting you and Long Chen,” said Luo Jiang, his voice filled with conviction. “Fighting alongside geniuses like you all… I have no regrets. Brothers! I, Luo Jiang, will go on ahead!”
With a battle cry, Luo Jiang fully ignited his heaven veins. His aura erupted like a volcano, and for a brief moment, violet dragon runes flickered within his pupils.
“Big Brother Luo Jiang, wait for me! We’ll go together, so you won’t be lonely on the other side!”
One by one, the Luo family disciples roared and ignited their heaven veins, showing no fear as they faced death head-on.
“Kill!”
Luo Yanfeng and the others abandoned their defenses and formations, transforming into wild beasts pouncing upon their enemies. They wanted to kill as many as they could before they perished.
The Bi family disciples were shocked to find their opponents’ power had suddenly skyrocketed, throwing their ranks into disarray. In an instant, chaos erupted as they were torn apart.
Seeing this scene, Bi Yingxue and the other Bi family’s top experts were shocked. They had never expected the Luo family’s disciples to undergo what seemed like a second bloodline awakening in the heat of battle.
“We can’t wait any longer. Kill them all! Don’t let a single one escape!” shouted Bi Yingxue.
“Filthy slut, I’ll drag you down with me!”
A thunderous voice rang out.
All of a sudden, Luo Yanfeng’s towering figure appeared before Bi Yingxue. His broadsword descended like a divine judgment, aimed straight at her. He looked as if he were possessed by a war god.
