Dragon-Marked War God

“Holy sh*t! Is this guy even human?”

“Impossible… This is impossible…”

The people of the Long Family were all astonished, trembling all over. Were Divine Emperor experts really this vulnerable in Jiang Chen’s hands?

The only ones who truly understood how terrifying that sword had been were the dozen or so surviving Divine Emperor experts. If they had not resisted with all their might, the momentum of that sword would have crushed them to death outright.

At this moment, Long Yinyue had already forced Wu Chongjiu back and his momentum was at its peak. But in the blink of an eye, his side had lost three Divine Emperor experts outright, and the rest were in an extremely miserable state. This guy seemed a bit too overbearing. Just how had he done it? Long Yinyue frowned deeply. He did not want to believe it at all, but that was the fact, and he could do nothing to change the outcome.

“Bastard!”

Long Yinyue said through gritted teeth, a storm surging in his heart. Jiang Chen’s charge had completely disrupted his plan to attack and destroy the Wu Divine Clan. At this moment, his Long Family had actually fallen into a passive position. Not only had three Divine Emperor experts been wiped out, but dozens of Hierarch experts had died as well. This made Long Yinyue completely break down inside.

The mere Wu Divine Clan could not possibly be this formidable. Could one small Early Divine Emperor really turn the tide of the battle? Long Yinyue did not believe it. He was determined to deal Jiang Chen a heavy blow!

“Get out of my way!”

With one blow, Long Yinyue forced Wu Chongjiu back. Wu Chongjiu’s strength was indeed a level below his. At this moment, the dozen or so Divine Emperor experts shifted battlefields and began attacking Wu Chongjiu, while Long Yinyue faced Jiang Chen directly. If this guy was not eliminated, his Long Family’s offensive would be stopped right here, unable to advance a single step.

“I really underestimated you. Jiang Chen, is it? In today’s battle, I, Long Yinyue, will have a go at you.”

Long Yinyue pointed his great saber, and it shone against Jiang Chen’s Heavenly Dragon Sword, both of them gleaming brilliantly.

“Sure. Only, you’d better be ready to die at any moment.”

Jiang Chen said indifferently. In this battle, he wanted to fight for the Wu Divine Clan’s prestige. With the Drifting Formation broken, he had to change the situation in order to make the Long Family truly afraid and solve the problem once and for all.

“Hahaha, I’ll wait and see.”

Long Yinyue held his great saber and slashed across the void. Treading on wind, clouds, thunder and lightning, he shot past Jiang Chen again and again like streaks of aurora and lightning, overturning the sky. Long Yinyue’s strength was a level above Wu Chongjiu’s, and Jiang Chen did not dare to be careless. He used Dragon Transformation and matched Long Yinyue almost move for move. Their momentum soared to the stars. Every clash between them was extremely fierce, saber and sword screaming as they fought savagely in the void.

“Sword of Solitude!”

“Dragon Roar Art, Mad Saber Throws the World into Chaos!”

Feathers of light flew across the sky and light and shadows spread. For three thousand miles of sky, rosy clouds shone with strange colors and scattered the green clouds of heaven and earth. The convergence of sword and saber, the tearing of light and shadow, a cataclysm that shook heaven and earth. Everyone was left in awe, and even Wu Chongjiu felt inferior and could not help murmuring:

“This Jiang Chen is truly terrifying. If not for Jiang Chen, I’m afraid my Wu Divine Clan would sooner or later have become the Long Family’s prize.”

Only now did Wu Chongjiu realize that he had completely underestimated Jiang Chen, and even Long Yinyue. Of these two people, he was a match for neither. Even if he used all his means, he would more likely lose than win.

At that moment, the world seemed to spin. The battle between Jiang Chen and Long Yinyue drew everyone’s eyes, and Long Yinyue’s face was extremely ugly. It was not that he could not match Jiang Chen, but that the Long Family people behind him were already struggling to take a single step. Whether it was the dozen or so battered Divine Emperor experts facing Wu Chongjiu, or the hundreds upon thousands of Hierarchs, they were all in a miserable state, and they were shrinking the battlefield step by step. Their situation was already worrying. If they kept fighting, they would only suffer heavy losses. That was the only result, an irreversible outcome.

Only the battle between Long Yinyue and Jiang Chen could be considered evenly matched. Everyone else was struggling and in imminent danger.

“Damn this guy.”

Long Yinyue spat lightly, his face dark. He now had no choice but to fall back and open up distance from Jiang Chen. He no longer had any room to choose. The only way was to retreat quickly. He had indeed been a bit reckless in this battle. He had never expected Jiang Chen alone to reverse the situation. Although he had spent painstaking years brewing this battle, in the end it had been disrupted by this unknown factor, Jiang Chen, and his people had even been badly injured, with danger lurking everywhere.

From being full of confidence at the start to now being attacked from front and rear, Long Yinyue had completely lost the will to keep fighting, because if they fought on, the Long Family’s losses would only grow heavier. Jiang Chen had turned the battle around on his own, gradually extinguishing his hope of certain victory. Now he could not advance a single step. Taking this chance to capture the Wu Divine Clan in one stroke was no longer possible.

After thinking it over again and again, Long Yinyue knew that there was no longer any point in continuing to fight. The Long Family’s core strength had suffered heavy losses, and the outcome would only become more miserable. By then, the other two great powers would be eyeing them greedily. His Long Family was not without enemies either. With troubles both inside and outside, his position as Family Head would surely become very hard to hold.

Today’s battle pained Long Yinyue to his core. But that bastard Jiang Chen was truly too infuriating. He had originally had everything planned out, but unfortunately, the final outcome was still not what he wanted, and he no longer had any confidence of certain victory. If they kept fighting and could not take the place for a long time, the ones who would suffer would surely be them.

“Today’s battle truly opened my eyes. What a Jiang Chen, what a Wu Divine Clan. Hahaha! Ninth Lord, let’s stop here for today. I, Long, will take my leave. However, this isn’t over. I, Long, will be back.”

Long Yinyue snorted coldly and gave Jiang Chen a grave look. Then he waved his big hand and slowly withdrew. At this moment, Jiang Chen and Wu Chongjiu exchanged a glance. Neither of them had any thought of pursuing. This battle had cost both the Long Family and the Wu Divine Clan heavily. Although it could not be called a crippling blow, the Long Family’s carefully plotted battle had ended in failure in the end, and they had left in such a sorry state. Even if the Long Family wanted to attack the Wu Divine Clan again, they would surely have to take Jiang Chen’s existence into account and be very cautious.

The Wu Divine Clan was, after all, a great clan from distant antiquity and one of the four great powers of the Earth Divine Land. Although the Drifting Formation had been the Wu Divine Clan’s pillar, even without it, the Wu Divine Clan was not one to be bullied by anyone. After all, even in decline it was still formidable. Even if the Long Family did defeat the Wu Divine Clan in the end, it would probably be a case of killing a thousand enemies while losing eight hundred of their own. So for the Long Family, this battle was just a probing attack. If they really could have taken the clan, they naturally would not have shown mercy. If they could not take it after a long assault, they would not be so persistent.

With Long Yinyue gone, the entire Wu Divine Clan’s cheers shook the heavens. Jiang Chen and Wu Chongjiu exchanged a glance, and both showed knowing smiles.

The Long Family had been routed and would not invade again for a short time. Wu Chongjiu knew that the person he should thank most was Jiang Chen.
