Chapter 133 - Not Closing The Door
Chapter 133 - Not Closing The Door
When he returned to the Turquoise Willow Residence, Long Chen went back to his place immediately.
Now that he was at the late Human Core Realm, the Lingwu family had assigned him to the housing area of the Level One disciples. This was his first time there, so he was confused about how to get there.
“I have two hundred and forty contribution points, and I need three hundred for the herb. But that old man Liu wants to give me a Category Six Black-tier beast soul for five hundred points. It’s clear that he wants me to support him.”
“You can enter the Heavenly Martial Realm again.”
“Yeah, let’s go and try that later. We need to find my new house now.”
Long Chen had rested enough at Baiyang Town, but he was more than happy to take a stroll.
The Lingwu family was extremely rich, so every building was very grand. A Level Three disciple already had a very good place to stay, much less a Level One disciple.
With the aid of his identity jade token, he soon found the gate leading to a massive courtyard. The courtyard was beyond beautiful.
“Is this where I will be staying? The Lingwu family is quite generous.”
Long Chen was about to open the door to his house with his identity jade token when Ling Xi suddenly whispered, “Hey, look. That door is slightly open. I think the sister of Administrator Liu is in there.”
“Liu Ling? Has she entered the late Human Core Realm too?”
To think that Liu Ling was his neighbor and her door had been left ajar. Long Chen naturally wanted to pay a visit to her.
She must be feeling quite haughty after making a breakthrough! Let me go and tease her a bit!
Long Chen carefully opened the gate to her courtyard and entered.
“So this is where the Level One disciples live. It’s so pretty ...”
“I think she’s in that room. I have no idea what she\'s doing.”
Ling Xi could sense the presence of others, but she had no idea what they would be doing.
Long Chen carefully crept over and stood just beside the door. He carefully pushed it open in an attempt to make himself seem like a ghost, but he was shocked when he spotted Liu Ling.
She was relaxing in a bathtub, her eyes closed, fully naked.
Long Chen took one peek and pretty much saw everything.
She will become like her elder sister in another two years ...
Long Chen felt his lips dry up and immediately ran away. Liu Ling saw him at the last moment and covered her body. She then wailed like a maniac.
“I’m fucked.”
Long Chen quickly ran back to his place and locked the door. Without the corresponding identity jade token, Liu Ling would never be able to enter his house.
“What a pervert. She doesn’t shut the door while bathing ...”
He recalled her sexy body and pale skin and was tempted to go spy on her again, but it was impossible.
“I think you’re the pervert!”
Ling Xi was mad and came out of the sword. At the same time, Long Chen felt a piercing pain in his ear.
“Xiao Xi! Mercy! I didn’t do it on purpose!”
Long Chen had to explain it numerous times before Ling Xi finally relented, but she still glared at him. “If you dare do that again I will kill you! Hmph!”
Long Chen had never expected an accident like this to happen today, but he knew Liu Ling hated him. Now she would hate him even more. There might be even more trouble for him in the future.
“Aaaah, this is so frustrating. She must be waiting for me outside my door right now. I have to merge with more Blazing Thunder Crystals before I head out.”
He had become much stronger after his breakthrough, so he could even suppress more Blazing Thunder Power now. When Long Chen was in Baiyang Town, he had already merged with the twenty-first crystal.
“According to my calculations, my limit should be at the thirtieth crystal.”
Even though his Blazing Thunder Combat Body was only at Level One, his body was becoming stronger by absorbing more crystals.
The Blazing Thunder Crystals were indeed very strong. Every time he merged with one, he felt his combat power increase.
***
Three days have passed, and I’ve already merged the twenty-fifth crystal. Ling Xi needs the Soul Grass to extend her life, so I cannot delay it any longer. I need to enter the Heavenly Martial Realm again.
Long Chen refused to believe that Liu Ling would still be waiting for him after three days. He gingerly opened the door and saw that she was indeed not there. He sighed in relief before quickly running towards the Heavenly Martial Realm.
Now that he was quite famous in the Turquoise family, everyone recognized him when he ran on the streets, but he still hadn’t made a single friend.
Now that the issue with the Blood Saints is over, I can start my new life.
Long Chen was filled with confidence stemming from the Dragon Jade Pendant that Long Qinglan had left him, as well as the Inherited Blood Essence.
Dragon Soul Transformation, Blood Transmutation, and the enhanced version of Blood Transmutation: Blood Devouring Domain.
The Blood Devouring Domain is even more savage than Blood Transmutation. I shouldn’t use it unless the situation is extremely dangerous.
It was a domain-type technique. Anyone within the domain would be under Long Chen’s control. Strong cultivators would have to use part of their Qi to suppress their uncontrollable blood, causing their battle strength to be reduced. Weaker ones would just die outright.
If I use it correctly, it might become even more valuable than Blood Transmutation.
Long Chen knew that any technique that derived its power from blood was from the mysterious Inherited Blood Essence.
“To think that the Inherited Blood Essence would contain so many strong techniques related to blood. That single drop of blood truly must be the Inherited Blood Essence of the legendary Ancient Bloodsoul Dragon that governed over bloodshed and massacre!” Ling Xi frowned. “But it’s still an evil dragon. You have to ensure your heart doesn’t go astray, or you will be seduced by power itself. Don’t use it unless you need to.”
Long Chen took her advice to heart.
He soon arrived at the Heavenly Martial Palace.
The area was much more lively than last time. Out of the two thousand disciples of the Turquoise family, at least half of them regularly visited the Heavenly Martial Realm. There were around two hundred people in the vicinity today.
Within the palace, there was one path leading to the Heavenly Core area, five to the Earthly Core area, and ten to the Human Core area.
Long Chen had just entered the palace and was looking around when an intense gaze filled with hatred locked onto him. He turned around and saw that it was Liu Ling! Her body was trembling from anger.
“Oh shit!”
Before he could run away, Liu Ling was right in front of him. Long Chen also saw that a middle-aged man was following her. He was wearing a red-and-white colored garb and looked strong.
Earthly Core Realm, but thankfully he’s only at the initial Earthly Core Realm.
Long Chen had a good grasp of that man’s power, so he relaxed.
Liu Ling knew they couldn’t fight here, so she just gritted her teeth and shouted, “Pervert!”
“Huh? What did you say? I didn’t do anything to you, so why are you calling me that?”
Long Chen was not afraid and just feigned ignorance.
“You still won’t admit it?! Three days ago, you ...”
When she raised her voice, everyone around them shushed each other and became quiet. Liu Ling blushed when she realized that everyone was trying to eavesdrop on their conversation. If she said it out loud, everyone would misunderstand her! She wanted to dig a hole and bury herself.
Liu Ling and Feng Wutian’s relationship was very good last time, but after Feng Wutian was defeated by Long Chen ...
“Long Chen is amazing. Not only did he defeat Feng Wutian, he also ‘defeated’ Liu Ling.”
“I thought only novels would have these kinds of narratives, but to think we could see it happen in real life too.”
“Shit! I can’t believe he got all the girls. I’m so handsome and yet I don’t have one!”
Long Chen was pleased with their discussions, while Liu Ling wanted to bury herself in a hole. She wanted to fight Long Chen, but the man behind her stopped her.
“Ling’er, follow me into the Heavenly Martial Realm.”
“No! Uncle Yan, I want to kill him!”
Uncle Yan glanced at Long Chen. “Do you want to enter the Heavenly Martial Realm?”
Staring at the taunting gaze, Long Chen did not back down. “Of course. Do you want to greet me there?”
Everyone knew that the Earthly Core Realm expert wanted to teach Long Chen a lesson in the Heavenly Martial Realm, but to think he dared talk back even though he was only at the Human Core Realm. It was too reckless.
“Well, he’s dead now.”
“Looks like Long Chen became overconfident after defeating Feng Wutian.”
Uncle Yan did not show any emotions even though the others were talking about him. He pulled Liu Ling’s arm and said plainly to Long Chen, “Then I shall see you in the Heavenly Martial Realm.”
Long Chen was going to retort back when Liu Ling suddenly chuckled. “Long Chen, so you still don’t know about the news?”
Long Chen was stunned. “Do you want to marry me after what happened a few days ago?”
Everyone laughed, and Liu Ling almost exploded from anger. Her voice was trembling when she spat, “Senior Wutian has entered the Earthly Core Realm and was invited directly into the Southern Vermillion Bird family. Long Chen, just you wait!”
She then entered the Heavenly Martial Realm with Uncle Yan.
Long Chen smiled bitterly. “Southern Vermillion Bird family? Since when was it that easy to enter the inner family?”
“It’s probably because he has the Vermillion Bird family bloodline. Long Chen, she hates you a lot. Now that she has Feng Wutian backing her up, they will definitely cause trouble for you,” Ling Xi explained with a sour expression.
“Then let them come. I will show them who’s stronger. There’s no way for him to win against me again after losing to me once!”
Everyone was certain Feng Wutian was going to kill Long Chen in their next encounter. Feng Wutian had lost to Long Chen while he was under the effect of the Heart Eater Magic last time, so how could he let it go?
“A talented youth, and yet too proud of himself. He’s dead this time.”
Everyone’s perception of Long Chen soon changed for the worse.
I will prove them all wrong.
Long Chen didn’t want to argue with them and headed straight for the Human Core area of the Heavenly Martial Realm.
