Chapter 6253 Lady Ming Yu
Long Chen flew leisurely through the air. But with his aura released to the fullest, he released a space-tearing roar that trailed behind him, as though he was afraid people would not notice him.
His years of treasure hunting had taught him one thing: when it came to luck, he couldn’t compete with heaven’s chosen darlings.
In that case, why waste time scrambling for scraps? It was far better to hunt down the other-world devils instead. With his current strength, he could sweep through them like a storm.
Hence, he simply spread his senses far and wide, wanting to go on a rampage.
The moment Long Chen sensed spatial fluctuations, he rushed over.
Before long, two forces came into view—one from the other world, and the other... devil experts.
However, their auras were entirely different—neither the same as the devil race he knew, nor identical to the other-world experts.
There were a few thousand of them, all powerful. Leading them was a female devil in skintight black robes, wielding two bone blades. Over five hundred Sovereign flames burned behind her, and she was holding off three other world experts of equal level without the slightest disadvantage.
The bone blades in her hands were just over a foot long, looking like some type of tooth with devil qi swirling on them. With every attack, they sliced open the sky.
Her warriors were no less fierce—each at least a hundred-flame divine sprout. Even heavily outnumbered, they fought with calm ferocity.
The ground was littered with corpses, most belonging to the other world’s side.
When Long Chen arrived and saw this scene, he couldn’t help but frown. The other-world experts were existences he had to kill, but the devil race wasn’t exactly on his good side either.
When the human race had been under siege in the nine heavens, the devils had been more than eager to fan the flames. As a result, Long Chen had slain countless of their kind.
“Well, no matter what, killing the other-world experts takes priority,” Long Chen muttered.
The next moment, the void exploded, and black vines tore out of it like sharp blades. Leafless, razor-sharp, and impossibly tough, they sliced through divine weapons and shields like paper.
“It’s Long Chen!” Terrified screams rang out.𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞
Panicked screams rang out. The moment Zhi Zhi appeared, the enemy recognized him.
“Run!”
The five-hundred-flame divine sprouts from the other world tried to retreat, but Zhi Zhi’s vines were far too fast. One by one, they were skewered.
“Damn it!”
One of them roared and swung his halberd at a vine.
The next moment, sparks flew, and his weapon went flying out of his hands. He had barely withstood one strike before another vine impaled him clean through.
In seconds, his body shriveled into a withered husk.
At this sight, all the other-world experts turned pale, while Long Chen was pleasantly surprised. After having killed so many of the other-world experts, Zhi Zhi finally decided to devour one.
In his mind, Zhi Zhi’s voice rang with excitement—it had finally found someone with a blood soul worth consuming.
“Long Chen, you bastard! Even as a ghost, I won’t let you off!”
Another divine sprout screamed his last curse before dying.
Once the leaders fell, the rest of the other-world experts couldn’t withstand even a single blow—they were annihilated instantly.
Slowly, Zhi Zhi’s vines retracted into a black hole behind Long Chen, dragging the corpses with them. The sight made even the hardened devil warriors tense.
All the devil experts here were astonished, clenching their weapons tightly and staring at Long Chen. Of course, they did not view Long Chen as a savior. They were prepared to fight him to the death.
At this moment, the devil woman’s Sovereign flames flickered. Her aura rose and wavered as she prepared for a suicidal strike if it meant buying her kin a chance to escape.
Once Zhi Zhi pulled in all the corpses, Long Chen spread his wings and simply left, not sparing those devils a glance.
“What...?”
Once he left, all the devil experts looked at each other blankly.
“Is he plotting something?” one muttered, bewildered.
The female devil also looked confused.
She replied, “We have to be cautious. Both the nine heavens and the other-world experts are our enemies.”
“That Long Chen really is powerful. He was able to ascend to the heavenly scales and kill those powerful experts like killing chickens. If we...” probed her subordinate.
In an instant, the female devil’s expression grew strict.
She shouted, “Your way of thinking is very dangerous! I just said that the people of the nine heavens can’t be trusted. Did you read our race’s history for nothing?! What was the result whenever we worked together with them?!”
Chastened, her subordinate fell silent.
“We will move to reinforce Lady Ming Yu,” she ordered. “But change course. We can’t risk being tracked.”
“Yes!”
The devil experts immediately set off in a different direction.
...
Meanwhile, as Long Chen soared through the air, Zhi Zhi suddenly let out a cry—it had sensed a powerful fluctuation.
Long Chen immediately switched directions, heading to the right. After an incense stick’s time of flying, he saw more experts of the other world.
This group consisted of lifeforms overflowing with devil qi. They were also rushing in the direction Zhi Zhi indicated.
While they looked similar to humans, they were completely bald and had bumpy bones. Their eyes sat on the sides of their heads, and they lacked noses entirely.
The moment they saw Long Chen, they attacked. But when his face became clear, they screamed in terror.
Vines shot out of the space behind Long Chen, instantly killing them.
Long Chen pressed on, encountering more of the other-world devils. To his surprise, they weren’t from a single race, so he saw all manner of strange devils.
Then, from behind him, a suffocating pressure surged forth. It was so overwhelming it made his heart pound.
“A Divine Sovereign’s aura!”
