Chapter 1303 Complicated

“Xuan Master . ” Liu Cang bowed .

“Have you calculated the Xuantian Dao Sect’s losses in this battle yet?” asked Li Tianxuan .

“Yes . A total of twenty-nine Soul Transformation experts and six hundred and thirty-one Jade Core Elders died . Also, seven people are left with only their Yuan Spirits . The Dragonblood Legion suffered no casualties, but sixteen Foundation Forging disciples fell,” reported Liu Cang .

This had been a fierce battle . The difference in numbers between the two sides had been immense . In order to give their talented disciples opportunities, the Jade Core Elders had sacrificed themselves .

It could be said that without them, there would have been no way Meng Qi, Tang Wan-er, Gu Yang, and the others could have gone all-out slaying the Corrupt Soul Transformation experts .

Although they had immense killing power, their defensive power was too low . As soon as they approached a Soul Transformation expert, there was danger of them being killed instantly .

That was why a major reason for their victory was because of these fallen Elders .

Yue Zifeng had seen so many Elders dying one by one, and that was why he hadn’t hesitated to use such a destructive move to kill so many Soul Transformation experts . He had won them precious breathing room .

Even before saving Meng Qi in that battle, Yue Zifeng had already activated his secret art, which had allowed him to kill several Soul Transformation experts, all in one blow . That had caused the Corrupt experts’ hearts to turn cold and blunt their sharpness . His contributions definitely couldn’t be overlooked .

“The Sect Protecting Pavilion truly made the greatest contributions this time!” Li Tianxuan sighed . Those elite Elders that had died had mostly come from the Sect Protecting Pavilion .

“But I don’t know if it’s a good thing or a bad thing that the Dragonblood Legion’s display was so shocking this time . It’ll probably shake the entire Central Plains,” said Liu Cang worriedly .

Such a terrifying legion was something that not only shocked the Corrupt path, but even the Xuantian Dao Sect itself .

They had slaughtered almost thirty thousand Corrupt Foundation Forging disciples without a single one of them dying . This kind of battle record was so stunning that Liu Cang almost couldn’t believe it .

Although their rank eight Corrupt Celestials had been handled by Meng Qi and Tang Wan-er, there had still been countless powerful geniuses amongst the Corrupt path .

To use the Blood Moon Devouring Sun Formation, the Corrupt path had only brought out their elite geniuses . That was why it was so shocking .

According to their original plan, the Corrupt path was to kill the Righteous experts and capture Long Chen . Then they would leave a recording of their powerful formation to stun the Righteous path . This was a move the Corrupt path used habitually .

So even the weakest disciples they had brought had been rank five Celestials . A third of them had been rank six, and over a thousand had been rank seven . As for rank eight Celestials, they had brought forty-seven of them .

Such a terrifying lineup had been annihilated by the Dragonblood Legion . And yet, most of the Dragonblood warriors were just rank five Celestials .

According to reason, they should have been heavily suppressed by the Heavenly Daos and unable to use their full power . But it was the Corrupt army that was annihilated instead .

What Liu Cang didn’t realize was that Long Chen had long since anticipated a day would come when they would have to fight Celestials with higher ranks than them . That was why he had made them go through tribulation together and intentionally provoked the Heavenly Daos into unleashing their divine pressure . That was to increase everyone’s potential, to make them give birth to the courage that would dare to go against the Heavenly Daos .

So although Heavenly Dao pressure could affect the Dragonblood Legion’s combat power, it wouldn’t affect their killing intent .

Furthermore, the effect of their greater Celestial ranks had been ruined by Gui Yan, a rank nine Celestial . Because he had unleashed such terrifying Heavenly Dao pressure, everyone had been suppressed .

As a result, all the Celestials had been equalized . That kind of situation had actually been unfavorable to the Corrupt path . That was because Gui Yan’s pressure focused a bit more on a person if their Celestial rank was higher .

To sum it up, the Dragonblood Legion’s victory this time was a complicated sum of many factors . That was the only reason they had created such a miraculous accomplishment .

But even so, with the Dragonblood Legion’s power, any Dragonblood warrior was a genius that would have difficulty finding a match within the same realm . Such a terrifying group would make countless sects and powers envious and uneasy . That was because they were afraid that once the Dragonblood Legion grew up, they would threaten them .

The Righteous path was full of internal fighting . Some of it was obvious and open, while some was kept secret and in the dark . Before this, the Xuantian Dao Sect had been declining and hadn’t been a threat to other sects, so naturally no one had set their gazes on the Xuantian Dao Sect .

But now there was such a terrifying legion growing within them, and that was too conspicuous . If it was just Long Chen rising, that would have been one thing . But now there was a group of over ten thousand disciples rising, disciples that had the potential to become powerful enemies . Even the sects with decent relations with the Xuantian Dao Sect were worried .

“There’s no need to bother with that . If we had continued being so cautious, we’d forever be suppressed by others . Starting today, our Xuantian Dao Sect is saying goodbye to caution . We’re going to start advancing without retreat . ” Li Tianxuan smiled . Having obtained the Xuantian Tower’s support had filled him with confidence . “Don’t bother with the matter of the Dragonblood Legion . Properly record our losses . The names of our fallen disciples are to be carved onto the Xuantian Merit Stele . If they have descendants, it’s up to the Xuantian Dao Sect to raise them . If they have no descendants, arrange for their relatives to be given the greatest support . After arranging this, go take a trip to the Martial Heaven Alliance . Give them the recording and tell them the number of Corrupt experts we killed this time,” said Li Tianxuan .

“We’ll be able to get an ocean’s worth of resources…” Even Liu Cang was emotional when he thought about how much wealth they would gain . Their gains were just too stunning .

The Corrupt Life Star expert and various Soul Transformation experts captured in the eastern sea battle had been equal to a thousand years worth of income for the Xuantian Dao Sect .

And this time, they had killed even more . The Martial Heaven Continent’s reward system was based on two things: the cultivation bases and the talent of the slain experts .

The Corrupt path had attacked with a huge army, but when they left, it had just been the dwarf taking away seventeen Life Star experts and a half-dead Gui Yan . The rest had all died .

With just one sect’s power and the seven bosses of the Heaven Splitting Battle Sect, they had accomplished such a stunning feat . This victory was something for the history books of the Righteous and Corrupt battles .

The Corrupt path had lost a Life Star expert, over five hundred Soul Transformation experts, and over thirty thousand elite Foundation Forging disciples . According to the Martial Heaven Continent’s reward system, Liu Cang couldn’t even imagine a number that could describe this wealth .

“Just report the numbers on this trip . But don’t get too excited yet, or you’ll be disappointed . ” Li Tianxuan smiled faintly, but his words were like a bucket of ice water over Liu Cang’s head .

“What are you talking about?” asked Liu Cang .

“This matter isn’t so simple . I killed those people from the ancient races and the Pill Tower . That will cause quite a bit of trouble . The Martial Heaven Alliance isn’t as pure and united as you imagine . Any group, once they reach a certain level of power, will have to follow a few unwritten rules . The Martial Heaven Alliance is no exception . Getting our reward this time will probably be very difficult . You should prepare yourself,” said Li Tianxuan calmly .

Liu Cang was silent . He wanted to say something, but he swallowed his words .

“I know . But as I said, since we’ve chosen to rise, we can’t be afraid of everything . If I hadn’t killed them at that time, they wouldn’t have been grateful . They’d have probably stabbed us in the back once they were saved . Enduring will only bring more humiliation . It’s the typical case of giving an inch only for them to take a foot, and then another foot, until you are forced to the end . So even if you gave me another chance, I’d have still done the same thing,” said Li Tianxuan .

Li Tianxuan had already had enough of the Pill Tower and the ancient races . They actually dared to hunt Long Chen so openly, completely ignoring the Xuantian Dao Sect . If he didn’t kill them after such an insult, he wouldn’t be Li Tianxuan .

After being bullied to this extent, if they still didn’t counterattack, then they really might as well just kill themselves .

“Other than that, send someone trustworthy to the Huayun Sect . Have them announce how Xuan Jizi harmed those geniuses . I have over ten cases with absolute proof here . I’ll make that idiot Xuan Jizi the target of everyone . Let’s see how he attempts to scheme against us now . ” Li Tianxuan handed Liu Cang a spatial ring .

Xuan Jizi was currently one of the greatest threats to Long Chen, as well as a threat to the Xuantian Dao Sect . This fellow was a hidden danger that needed to be removed .

Li Tianxuan had gathered iron-clad proof of his deeds, and there was no way Xuan Jizi would be able to argue against it . Although it was unlikely he would be executed, at least he could show the world who Xuan Jizi was . That way, there wouldn’t be as many sects who trusted him . Furthermore, this matter implicated Pill Valley . The Huayun Sect would definitely be happy to help .

Once no one trusted him, then no matter how he tried to fan the flames, it would be useless . There was no time to capture him now, but once they got past this juncture, it would be time to find that bastard .

…

Just as Li Tianxuan was plotting everything, Long Chen returned to Crouching Dragon Mountain . Right now, Crouching Dragon Mountain was calm because all the Dragonblood warriors had been exhausted by the battle and were in seclusion .

Long Chen returned to his room, and Meng Qi and Tang Wan-er were already waiting for him . Seeing him walk in, Tang Wan-er immediately grabbed hold of him tightly, her eyes full of worry .

“Don’t worry, I’m fine . Oh, wait, there is something . The Xuan Master said I need to enter the bridal room in order to suppress the curse . ” Long Chen hastily changed what he was saying .

“Scoundrel, who do you think would believe you?!” rebuked Tang Wan-er . There was no way she would fall for such a childish lie . She repeatedly beat him on the chest .

But his joke made Meng Qi and Tang Wan-er’s hearts less worried . This Underworld Soul Ghost Curse had truly made their hearts clench . That was because they thought of the Yama King Blood Curse that had killed Little Snow in the Immemorial Path .

“Then we can consider the bridal room later . A kiss should be fine, right?”

Long Chen was already leaning down, giving Tang Wan-er a deep kiss .

“Don’t, big sister Meng Qi is right there…” Tang Wan-er tried to get away .

“Of course a kiss must be done in front of Meng Qi, or it would be like cheating,” laughed Long Chen . Despite how bashful Tang Wan-er acted, he didn’t let her off without a final kiss on the cheek .

Then he turned to Meng Qi, who hadn’t said anything this entire time . He also gave her a fierce kiss .

Meng Qi’s body quivered as she held him tightly around his waist . Her tears streamed down .

Meng Qi was a quiet and reserved person, but her feelings for Long Chen ran deep . She had never refused Long Chen . He was her everything . If he could live, she wouldn’t ask for anything else .

“Sorry about everything . ” Seeing those tears stream down Meng Qi’s peerlessly beautiful face, Long Chen was filled with pain . A simple apology felt completely meaningless .

Tang Wan-er’s eyes were also red . Her greatest hope was that Long Chen would forever stay by their side .

“Today is a happy day . I’ve brought you both gifts . ” Long Chen suddenly smiled .
