The blonde woman was stunned; even she herself hadn't expected that this strike would hit the red-haired man's vital spot directly.
Although she had fought the red-haired man many times and was always able to outdo him, her advantage was very slim. This was the first time she had injured him.
This strike, which had no technical skills, managed to hit the red-haired man's vital spot. She was completely baffled herself.
Not only was she confused, but the red-haired man had no idea what had happened. When Long Chen slapped him hard across the face, the tremendous force shattered his cheekbone, causing half his face to collapse instantly.
"Pfft!"
The red-haired man spat out a mouthful of blood and was sent flying. A large hole was stabbed through his chest, half his face mangled and bloodied. The sight stunned the powerful warriors of the Tianxie Sect and the Beast Fusion Clan in an instant.
"How many times have I told you? Fighting is bad. Listen to others' advice and eat your fill. Haven't you heard about it? You want me to give you face, but you treat my face like a shoe insole..." Long Chen carried the bronze cauldron on his back, pointed at the red-haired man, and cursed loudly, his face full of frustration.
Although Long Chen had calculated cleverly and tricked the red-haired man, he was shocked to find that the blonde woman's full-force strike couldn't shake the man's life-bound golden thread.
In other words, although the blonde woman could defeat him, she couldn't kill him, and the red-haired man still had a trump card for survival.
Originally, the blonde woman's strike was planned by Long Chen. His original plan was for her to finish him off with a finishing blow after her strike.
However, after the blonde woman's strike, Long Chen immediately changed his mind. Since he wasn't confident he could kill him, he shouldn't alert the enemy or reveal his true strength, or else it would be even harder to kill him next time.
So, Long Chen's stab turned into a slap. Although the slap wasn't very lethal, compared to the physical pain, the psychological humiliation was the most unacceptable—especially for someone as proud as the red-haired man—they'd rather take a hundred stabs than get slapped.
When Long Chen landed that slap, all the powerful figures present were stunned. Even the blonde woman's eyes were filled with disbelief. She had never imagined that one day, the fierce red-haired man would be slapped by someone.
"Bastard, go to hell! Evil god possessed, Nine-turn Heavenly Soul..."
Sure enough, with Long Chen's slap, the red-haired man went mad. He didn't even care about the sect leader's face, yet he was slapped. What a humiliation!
"Rumble... The
red-haired man roared in fury, his face twisted like a ghost. The evil god's phantom behind him trembled, now wandering like billions of vengeful souls seeking death. At that moment, the red-haired man's aura surged dramatically.
"Hey, hey, hey, buddy, calm down, you have to stay calm. Don't get so worked up. We can talk things through. I'm really here to mediate..." Seeing the red-haired man explode, Long Chen immediately backed down and quickly put on a posture of winning people over with virtue.
"Get out of the way!"
The blonde woman saw Long Chen still reasoning with the already crazed red-haired man and thought to herself, is this guy out of his mind?
She dared not be careless. The sound of the phoenix's cry rang out, wings spread behind her, and the vast void turned into a boundless sea of fire. The spear in her hand roared explosively as she charged straight at the red-haired man.
"Boom boom boom... The
blonde woman and the red-haired man were old rivals. Seeing the other fighting desperately, she didn't dare hide her strength. Flames swirled throughout her body as she clashed fiercely with the red-haired man.
Both began to fight desperately. Spears and scythes collided, erupting violent ripples. The void shattered, endless fragments of time and space flew about, waves of energy surged, and myriad paths were torn apart.
"Ouch...
Long Chen cried out in shock, his body sent flying by the terrifying shockwave from the two. His body staggered and screamed as he fled wildly.
"Clang"—
Just as Long Chen was flying wildly, the bronze cauldron in his hand couldn't be grasped, and it was actually thrown away, and by coincidence, it struck the back of the head of a Saint of the Tianxie Sect.
The Saint of the Tianxie Sect was fiercely battling a Saint from the Beast Fusion Clan. The bronze cauldron came from a strange and silent way, and was instantly struck squarely.
That Saint of the Tianxie Sect was instantly struck so hard he was dazzled, dizzy, while his opponent seized the opportunity and struck his head with a club, instantly causing ten thousand peach blossoms to bloom.
"Young man, well done!"
The Saint of the Beast Fusion Clan landed a successful strike, taking down a Saint. Overjoyed, he gave Long Chen a thumbs up.
"What's going on? Ah, did I take down a Saint? Long Chen pretended to be both surprised and delighted, then burst out laughing, taking all the credit for himself.
The Saint of the Beast Fusion Clan didn't care either; it didn't matter whose merit it was. If Long Chen hadn't "coincidentally" thrown the bronze cauldron onto that person's head, he wouldn't have had a chance to kill him.
The Saint killed his opponent and immediately went to support the other Saints.
"Whew."
When Long Chen tried to grab the Qiankun Cauldron, he missed it. The cauldron vanished, and he actually returned to Long Chen's soul space. Then Long Chen heard the cauldron's nearly roaring roar:
"How many times have I told you? Don't use me as a weapon to attack others, I can only defend passively. "
Oh oh oh, sorry, senior, I forgot." Long Chen hurriedly apologized. The Qiankun Cauldron had indeed repeatedly warned him that it was not a combat weapon and could not help Long Chen kill.
In the past, killing it was one thing, but ever since the runes on its body began to be unsealed, it couldn't see blood anymore.
Long Chen had been too focused on scheming against others earlier and forgot Qiankun Cauldron's instructions. Seeing Qiankun Cauldron so furious for the first time, he hurriedly apologized.
Seeing Long Chen apologize, the Qiankun Cauldron finally fell silent, and Long Chen, having lost the cauldron, just stood there foolishly in midair.
"Damn thing, ruining the great affairs of my Tianxie Sect. Go to hell!" At that moment, countless disciples of the Tianxie Sect gritted their teeth and charged at Long Chen.
"Hey, hey, hey, stop messing around. We're all carrying one head on two shoulders—why fight each other?" Long Chen hurriedly waved his hand.
"Die!"
A prodigy from the Tianxie Sect roared, his blood-red shuttle shooting toward Long Chen. It was an extremely terrifying Destiny Warrior, its aura only slightly weaker than the Fate Hunter clan expert Long Chen had killed.
And as soon as he made his move, dozens of Tianxie Sect experts surrounded him at once, each charging at him as if they were the killers of their fathers.
"Hey, hey, since we're going to fight, let's fight alone. If others have more to bully, we'll have fewer people... Oh dear... "You don't play fair... Long Chen didn't want to reveal his strength, so he dodged and evaded the real situation. After killing two reckless Tianxie Sect experts, he was surrounded by them, plunged into danger, and began to panic.
"Hold on, I'll be there to save you soon." The blonde woman shouted, fiercely battling the red-haired man, each move ruthless and life-for-death.
"Forget it, you can't kill him, so don't waste your effort!" Long Chen sighed inwardly, otherwise I would've cooperated with you to take him down long ago.
Seeing Long Chen in danger, the Beast Fusion clan experts were quite considerate, frantically rushing toward Long Chen, hoping to help him out of the predicament.
"Not good."
Suddenly, Long Chen's scalp tingled, and a black formation disk appeared in his hand. At that moment, a giant hand appeared in the void.
"Pfft!"
Within a radius of ten thousand li around Long Chen's space, all living beings were shattered by that giant hand.
