The Hall Master and the Purple Blood Xu family patriarch had not truly confronted each other, but the Hall Master's shout "Battle?" Yet it made countless Innate Heavenly Venerables tremble with fear.
Originally, the demon clan expert was about to force Long Chen to hand over the corpses and divine weapons, but because of a single word from the Hall Master, he was too scared to go head-on.
The appearance of the Hall Master shocked countless people. They suddenly understood why Long Chen dared to scam Longteng Trading Company—there was such a terrifying expert backing them.
Watching Long Chen leave, the demon clan experts gritted their teeth, while the Longteng Trading Company's elites, the living, had already scattered like birds and beasts, while the dead could only die as wronged ghosts.
Although Longteng Trading Company is powerful, its influence is entirely within the human race. Because it has been doing business all along, its experts are spread all over the world, making it difficult to gather all the experts together.
Moreover, given Longteng Trading Company's strength, they never dreamed they would be used by Long Chen. The two who were deceived were desperate and ruthlessly attacked Longteng Trading Company.
The Longteng Trading Company incident became a huge joke, and because of it, Long Chen was labeled a super fraud.
Long Chen, this super swindler, had already made a fortune and, under the gaze of countless people, swaggered back to Lingxiao Academy.
When Long Chen returned to Lingxiao Academy, the noisy Lingxiao Academy had calmed down considerably. There were still many visitors, but now they were much more well-behaved.
Not to mention the troublemakers and commotion crowds, even the loud and noisy people disappeared. Everyone behaved properly and obediently, and when they saw Long Chen, their eyes were filled with awe.
"They're just a bunch of people who need to be dealt with. They have no other skills, only know how to push and show off, and just because they give a little color, they think they can open a dyeing room." Facing this group, Luo Ning scoffed; people like this were the ones she looked down on most.
Previously, they were dissatisfied with Lingxiao Academy in many ways. They were clearly here to plagiarize for free and act like big shots. Now that Long Chen has arrived, each of them has become well-behaved kids.
"Brother Long, you came to see me?"
Long Chen had just returned to Lingxiao Academy and saw Xu Changchuan bringing over a dozen strong members of the Moonwatching Clan.
Among these experts, two had extremely subtle auras and were true experts. Clearly, Xu Jianxiong was worried about Xu Changchuan's danger and had sent two experts to protect him.
Xu Changchuan arrived and hurriedly greeted everyone; after all, he had once been a disciple of Lingxiao Academy.
"I have something important for you, but I'm too busy right now to go over." Long Chen said.
With more and more powerful beings arriving, the major regions are becoming increasingly complex. If Long Chen goes to the beast zone, he might encounter all kinds of fierce battles.
Although Long Chen wasn't afraid, he really didn't have enough time to deal with it, so he had no choice but to send a signal for the Wangyue clan to send someone.
"This ..."
When Long Chen handed the World Stone to Xu Changchuan, Xu Changchuan could hardly believe his eyes when he saw the corpse of the Moon-Watching Rhinoceros inside the World Stone.
"There's no time to lose. Let's hurry back to our clan territory and invite the clan leader to take a look." The two elders behind Xu Changchuan also saw the scene inside the World Stone, and they were even more excited than Xu Changchuan.
This was the ancestor of the Wangyue clan, an immortal-level powerhouse. His corpse was relatively well preserved, with many divine powers and runes. Perhaps it could be passed down, and to them, this corpse was truly priceless.
This matter was extremely important to the Moonwatching Clan. Xu Changchuan didn't hold back, greeted Long Chen, and hurriedly left.
Such a major matter must be known first by the clan leader, and how to handle the corpse still needs to be discussed, so time cannot be delayed at all.
After dealing with the Wangyue clan, Long Chen and the others returned to the inner courtyard. After carefully examining Bai Xiaole's eyes, Long Chen couldn't help but gasp in shock, feeling a wave of lingering fear.
"You little rascal, just a tiny bit away from your eyes. Why are you so impulsive? With the boss around, no one can bully you. Long Chen couldn't help but curse.
The veins in Bai Xiaole's eyes were almost all broken into segments. Fortunately, none of these veins were misaligned; if they were, no one could save him.
"I didn't think much about it at the time. If anyone dared to steal my Xiao Jiu, I'd fight it to the death." Bai Xiaole grinned foolishly.
"Xiao Jiu?"
Everyone was stunned.
"How many times have I told you? Don't call me Xiao Jiu. I'm way older than your parents, and even bigger than your grandparents." At that moment, the Purple-Eyed Nine-Tailed Demon Fox appeared again, cursing loudly.
Long Chen and the others almost burst out laughing. The Purple-Eyed Nine-Tailed Demon Fox was a primordial beast, renowned throughout history. Its physical form could block out the sky and sun. The name 'Little Nine' was indeed somewhat comical.
Insulted by the Purple-Eyed Nine-Tailed Demon Fox, Bai Xiaole remained silent, just giggling foolishly. However, his eyes were dim, almost blind, making him feel a bit sorry to see.
Long Chen said seriously, "Xiao Jiu, let me tell you..."
"I told you, don't call me Xiao Jiu. Are you wearing donkey hair in your ears?" The Purple-Eyed Nine-Tailed Demon Fox roared in anger.
"What about your little tail?"
"Xiao Zi?"
"Xiaotong?"
"Little demon?"
"Little fox?"
Long Chen said several names in a row.
"Forget it, just call me Xiao Jiu!"
The Purple-Eyed Nine-Tailed Demon Fox seemed to have resigned herself to fate. Among these names, Xiao Jiu seemed to be better.
Long Chen said, "My silly brother wasn't foolish to begin with. The main issue was that he had a foolish father who was abusive toward him since he was young, which led to some mental defects.
The more you yell at him and scold him, the more his mind goes blank, like a fool. Since you've made a contract, you're now a shared destiny.
You need to understand, help, and support each other. Right now, you share both glory and loss.
I know that forming a contract with Xiao Le has caused you great injustice. With your powerful cultivation, being forcibly suppressed like this, you must feel uncomfortable inside..."
Hearing Long Chen say this, the Purple-Eyed Nine-Tailed Demon Fox calmed down considerably. Long Chen continued,
"But as you saw, He may be foolish, but his feelings for you are genuine. He's willing to risk everything for you, even willing to give up his own eyes.
His eyes are more important than his life, and you are more important than his eyes. Tell me, what does he do to you? Long Chen asked.
A complex expression appeared in the pupils of the Purple-Eyed Nine-Tailed Demon Fox. Bai Xiaole fought desperately for it, and it was truly moved—something it had never imagined.
After all, when she's with Bai Xiaole, she gets angry and curses all day, but she never expected Bai Xiaole to treat her like this.
"Actually, Xiao Le is very smart and highly talented. You have already inherited the Six Paths Heavenly Communication, so you should study calmly. I believe you will gain something unexpected." Long Chen said with a smile.
"Alright, I get it. Stop making it easy"Annoying, our affairs don't need your concern. We can manage ourselves. Xiao Le, let's go, let's heal." The
Purple-Eyed Nine-Tailed Demon Fox said irritably, then grabbed Bai Xiaole and left.
Watching their departing figures, Long Chen smiled at the corner of his mouth. After this ordeal, the relationship between the Purple-Eyed Nine-Tailed Demon Fox and Bai Xiaole had finally become harmonious. If the Purple-Eyed Nine-Tailed Demon Fox could truly accept Bai Xiaole, then once their souls fused, their strength would become truly astonishing.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, the entire Lingxiao Academy shook, and a look of surprise appeared on Bai Shishi's face:
"Lingxiao Palace has appeared, go see it quickly."
