Chapter 1279: Dancing Clowns

Xiao Chen withdrew his gaze and ignored Ao Lang, draining the wine in his cup in one go and taking in a deep breath. Then, he gave a thumbs-up gesture and a smile to Mo Chen in praise for the wine that she brewed.

However, Mo Chen felt so anxious that she nearly cried. None of the honored guests from the invitation list made it. With the Western Sea Dragon King pressing matters to this extent, there was already no way to continue the Dragon's Gate's reestablishment ceremony. However, Xiao Chen could still smile.

Xiao Chen's smile enraged the Western Sea Dragon King even more. His voice grew louder as he said, "Azure Dragon King, to think you can still smile! Don't think that just because you possess great Luck, you will be able to flip the situation around. In our eyes, you are just a minor character, just like an ant. We can squash you to death at any—"

"Are you finished yet? Damn it, shut your mouth up. All you keep saying is the same line over and over again!" Xiao Chen yelled suddenly, his voice like thunder. His furious expression made his delicate face looked very terrifying.

"Piang!" He flung the wine cup in his hand to the ground. Then, he shouted, "Are you going to say that someone already blocked the Supreme Sky Prime? Also, the Spirit Fox King, the thirteen Great Bandits of the Black Sea, the Northern Sea Alliance…all the honored guests that I invited will not be able to come without exception?!

"You are going to say that no one will be able to help me today. As long as I continue with the ceremony, I will be crushed like the wine flask. You used the analogy of the wine flask to laugh at me for overestimating myself, jumping up and down like a clown. Do you really think that I do not understand the hidden meaning behind your words?!"

Xiao Chen stunned the Western Sea Dragon King's group. They asked with somewhat quivering voices, "How did you know? You should not know about this!"

That was right. This group dared to shed all cordiality because the honored guests that Xiao Chen invited would not arrive.

The Western Sea Dragon King had contacted various people to block the other parties, to ensure that they would not turn up at Heavenly Dragon City. In their opinion, without these major characters, no matter how Xiao Chen hopped around, he would be just like a clown.

How could Xiao Chen not know? None of his honored guests arrived. One would be able to figure out the reason with just a little guesswork. From the time he received the congratulatory gifts until now, he never truly felt complacent. Actually, he already guessed what happened.

Xiao Chen looked directly at Ao Long and said, enunciating every word, "Let me tell you this, Western Sea Dragon King Ao Lang. Some people can ignore any dangers to their life for the sake of the responsibility in their heart. You will never understand this. My—Xiao Chen's—heart is red. My blood is warm. Even if you dig out my heart and bleed me dry, I, Xiao Chen, will carry out this Dragon's Gate's reestablishment ceremony to the end."

When facing Xiao Chen's imposing manner, the Western Sea Dragon King Ao Lang, who initially held the suppressive advantage, felt somewhat stupid.

Originally, Ao Lang thought that after Xiao Chen found out the truth, he would turn pale and be startled into giving up obediently. Who would have imagined that the other party would be so ruthless, not taking a step back at all?

Even after being pushed into a dead end, Xiao Chen still stuck to what he believed in, doing his best to fulfill his duty.

Xiao Chen's perseverance and craziness stunned the Western Sea Dragon King Ao Lang for a moment before he recovered his wits.

After all, Ao Lang was a major character who was a Seventh Heaven Martial Emperor. He had lived a long time already and experienced many things. Although people like Xiao Chen were very rare, perhaps appearing only once every ten thousand years, Xiao Chen was still much weaker than him at this moment.

Xiao Chen was not someone who could stand on the same stage. As long as those major characters could not make it, no matter how he jumped around, he would just be like an ant before the Western Sea Dragon King Ao Lang.

Furthermore, there were still many Greater Heavenly Martial Emperors of varying strengths by the Western Sea Dragon King's side. With such momentum, there was no way Xiao Chen would truly scare him.

Ao Lang said coldly, "Digging your heart out and draining your blood? There is no need for me to go to all that trouble in order to kill you. However, don't worry. I am the Western Sea Dragon King. I will not stoop so low as to kill you. Since I am already aware of your determination, I will not ask you anymore. We will just sit here. You can do whatever you like. However, you can forget about unveiling this Dragon's Gate's mountain tablet!"

Ao Lang waved his hand, and the others all sat down and coldly stared at Xiao Chen.

"What are you all looking at? Scram!"

Upon seeing the other honored guests on the platform, Ao Lang shouted at them. The others immediately left the platform, not daring to remain any longer.

"All of you too! Scram, now! On the double!"

The Western Sea Dragon King pointed at the tens of thousands of guests still drinking and chatting in the plaza. All of them were included among those that Ao Lang addressed.

Everyone felt dissatisfied, feeling that this Western Sea Dragon King was too overbearing. However, the other party was a Seventh Heaven Sovereign Martial Emperor and had many Holy Lands and ancient Noble Clans on his side. With such a force, no one dared to disobey.

Ao Lang looked at the red-eyed Xiao Chen and said, "Don't look at me. Let me tell you this: with me around, you will absolutely be unable to continue this Dragon's Gate's reestablishment ceremony. I will not dig your heart out or drain your blood. I'll just sit here without moving, and that alone is sufficient to prevent your Dragon's Gate's reestablishment ceremony from continuing."

After Ao Lang shed all cordiality, Xiao Chen indeed had no way to deal with him. This hoodlum method made Xiao Chen feel choked with hot blood in his chest, unable to unleash it.

The people of the Holy Lands seated beside Ao Lang all revealed faint smiles as they looked at Xiao Chen's frustrated appearance.

They all felt very happy. What could be happier than being able to see the Azure Emperor's descendant suffer? They managed to settle scores, and the Western Sea Dragon King shielded them from repercussions. What could be better than this?

If there was any unhappiness, the only one would be that Xiao Chen had danced around in front of them earlier and received their fourteen gargantuan weapons.

However, the situation had already turned around. As long as the Dragon's Gate could not be reestablished, the Azure Dragon King's Luck would definitely drop. As for the humiliation they suffered earlier, it no longer mattered.

"Pu ci!"

Xiao Chen felt agitated and could not help vomiting a mouthful of blood onto the platform—a very startling sight.

"Xiao Chen!"

"Big Brother Xiao!"

The expressions of Mo Chen and the others altered as they ran over to support Xiao Chen. They appeared both worried and angry.

---

Within the clouds in the distance, on the Lunar Palace's warship, Yue Bingyun's chest tightened when she saw Xiao Chen suddenly vomiting blood. She immediately moved to go and check out the situation.

"Bing`er!"

A voice came from inside the Lunar Palace's warship. Yue Bingyun showed a conflicted expression and stopped.

When the people on the other warships saw this scene, they all revealed cold smiles. Although this Xiao Chen was strong, he was still just human and not a god.

---

When the Western Sea Dragon King and the others saw this, they immediately understood what had happened. When Xiao Chen received the fourteen gargantuan weapons earlier, he had suffered significant hidden injuries, especially after he used some heaven-defying Martial Technique that could not be easily used.

Furthermore, as it was the Dragon's Gate's reestablishment ceremony, he did not get to rest properly. After holding out until now, he could no longer do so, and his injuries erupted.

Seeing how Xiao Chen paled, the Western Sea Dragon King said indifferently, "Everyone, have you seen it carefully? I did not do anything to him. He vomited blood on his own. Don't any of you blame it on me."

"Haha! It turns out that his injuries are not light, either. I really thought that he managed to remain unharmed when he received our congratulatory gifts."

"The Azure Dragon King is merely so-so."

As the group watched Xiao Chen vomiting blood, they started to mock him with cold words. All of them felt very pleased as they remembered the glorious scene of Xiao Chen receiving their congratulatory gifts and inviting them up. It turned out that there was also a miserable side to this.

Mo Chen glared at the Western Sea Dragon King and snarled, "Don't go overboard!"

The Western Sea Dragon King laughed loudly and said, "What's wrong, little girl? We are just speaking. Are you not even going to allow that? This brat overestimated himself. Who can he blame but himself?!"

"How shameless!" Mo Chen shouted angrily.

Mo Chen simply could no longer endure and directly charged over. A burning book appeared above her head, bathing her in fiery light as she threw a palm strike at Ao Lang.

"The Book of Heavenly Works? Little girl, you are rather fortunate in your fortuitous encounters. Perhaps in another hundred years, you might be a match for me. However, now, you can only return to where you came from."

The eyes of Ao Lang and the others all lit up when they saw this canon.

However, they did not worry much about Mo Chen, who launched herself over. Even if she had the Book of Heavenly Works, she was still just like an ant before them.

"Pu ci!"

When the pale Xiao Chen saw Mo Chen explode in rage, his heart sank. He pushed off the ground and arrived first despite making his move later. Then, he placed his hands on Mo Chen's shoulders, blocking her from the front.

Ao Lang, who had been preparing to attack, smiled faintly and said, "Interesting. The Azure Dragon King truly lives up to his reputation. Despite being injured to this extent, you still possess such speed. Your Movement Technique is excellent!

"However, since I already started to make my move, I might as well continue and test how strong the Azure Dragon King's Movement Technique is."

Ao Lang's words paused here, and he raised his hand to launch a palm strike. Flames surged instantly, and a flame dragon made of Primordial Energy charged ferociously at Xiao Chen while baring claws and fangs.

This move was not very strong; it was just a casual attack for Ao Lang. However, with Xiao Chen's current state, he could not easily receive or dodge it.

"Bang!" After doing his best to dodge while carrying Mo Chen, he managed to avoid the main attack and just got struck by the shock wave, so there were no serious problems.

"Your Movement Technique is indeed pretty good. It is truly an eye-opener." The group laughed loudly at Xiao Chen's sorry state.

"How hateful!"

The Dragon's Gate's people all felt frustrated. However, they were helpless against this group of seated major characters.

Xiao Chen got up. Blood leaked out of a corner of his lips again. As he watched those major characters laugh so happily, rage blazed high in his heart.

He had expected that the Dragon's Gate's reestablishment ceremony would be an extremely perilous trial. However, he had not expected it to be this difficult, without even a chance to try and struggle.

However, he felt no regret. As he had said, Ao Lang and the others would never understand his perseverance.

"Azure Dragon King, I have already ruined your Dragon's Gate's reestablishment ceremony. Do you feel regret now? Back then, I already told you nicely that you cannot hold the Dragon's Gate's reestablishment ceremony. You spoke about the momentum with me. Now, do you understand what the momentum is? The momentum flows on my side!"

Basking in the feeling of having gained complete control over the situation, Ao Lang taunted Xiao Chen with the tone of a victor.

Xiao Chen smiled and retorted, "The momentum? All you see is the small picture. The days of your Western Sea Divine Dragon Palace are already numbered. All you can do is cast your lot on my Heavenly Star Island. Unfortunately, you blocked off that path by yourself. Even if I fail in the Dragon's Gate's reestablishment ceremony today, the end of your Western Sea Divine Dragon Palace will not change.

"You think that I'm a clown? Well, in my eyes, you are the true clown jumping around. You may appear mighty, but you do not know how many people are laughing at you for being the fool that you are!"
