Chapter 591 – Choose One

After studying Lei Zhen, Long Chen, and Xiaolang, Zhao Danchen smiled. “Two young, delicate-skinned teenagers! The preferences of the Battle clan leader must be quite special. I didn’t know you liked them this way.”

Lei Zhen had always been an honest man, so he did not understand Zhao Danchen’s subtle insult. Long Chen did, so he instantly understood this person’s personality. The fact that he had managed to stand out amongst countless children and climbed up to his current position showed that he was no simple man. His personality was quite similar to Long Chen’s.

Long Chen knew that he had met his match this time.

Lei Zhen ignored him and said coldly, “Zhao Danchen, you have come to the Battle clan’s territory, so just tell me what this is about. If you keep beating around the bush, you’re going to lose my respect!”

Zhao Danchen laughed for a while, then he finally said, “Tell me, what do you think I’m here for?” His eyes ran up and down Lei Zhen. “Lei Zhen, you’re useless, but they let you command the whole Battle clan. I don’t think you’re fit for the job, so I want to kill you. That way, a new clan leader will be chosen. What do you think?”

Zhao Danchen’s tone made it sound like he was joking, but Long Chen and Lei Zhen knew that he was not. Although Lei Zhen was weak in terms of cultivation, he was stubborn and was a clan leader who was hard to deal with. Zhao Danchen had a faint feeling that even if Lei Zhen lost the bet, he would bite back. That was why he had come over to survey the situation.

Based on what he had just seen, he felt like there was a huge possibility that his hunch was correct.

Yang Ningfeng had made the bet without Zhao Danchen’s consent. At the time, Zhao Danchen was undergoing treatment for his injuries. When he woke up and heard about what Yang Ningfeng had done, he immediately slapped Yang Ningfeng in the face.

Although they were both Martial Emperors, Zhao Danchen held a lot more power than Yang Ningfeng. Zhao Danchen was the Martial Overlord’s direct disciple with a clean background. Yang Ningfeng, on the other hand, used to be the Great Priest of the Wind God Sect. There was no comparison between them, so even though Yang Ningfeng had been slapped, he had to hold his anger back.

However, the Martial Alliance had already made the bet, so they could not change anything.

Lei Zhen was not intimidated. He replied mockingly, “Is the great Martial Alliance unable to follow through with its own bet?”

Zhao Danchen replied, “The bet will still go on, of course. But the bet did not state that I cannot change the Battle clan’s clan leader, right? Since you’re so disobedient, Lei Zhen, I need to put who is more obedient in your seat.”

Zhao Danchen spoke as if it was very logical, but Long Chen found a flaw in his logic and laughed loudly. “I’ve long heard that Zhao Danchen was the ultimate prodigy, but I didn’t expect you to be the kind of man that doesn’t keep his promises! I am utterly shocked by how low you are willing to get!”

“Why do you say that?” Zhao Danchen looked at Long Chen. He did not know who this First Earthly Martial Stage teenager was, but there was no need to know.

“The bet consists of a total of three battles. My Fourth Brother will be representing the Battle clan in the first battle. If you kill him, doesn’t that count as breaking the rules of the bet? If the Martial Alliance is so scared, you might as well kill all three representatives, then! If you do that, I’m sure you will die of embarrassment!” Long Chen said without a hint of submission.

Zhao Danchen had said that the bet would still be upheld, but since Lei Zhen was going to participate in the duel, killing him was considered breaking the conditions of the bet. Zhao Danchen had just shot himself in the foot. He had actually come today to kill Lei Zhen, but his plan was ruined because of a few words from Long Chen.

“You’re a great Martial Emperor of the Martial Alliance! Supposedly the number one person beneath the Martial Overlord himself! But you are actually such a lowly character; I have learned something new today,” Long Chen continued.

Lei Zhen looked at Long Chen gratefully. After what Long Chen said, Zhao Danchen no longer had an excuse to attack Lei Zhen. The bet had already been made and announced to the world. If Zhao Danchen killed Lei Zhen here, he would only embarrass the Martial Alliance.

“Alright! Alright!” Zhao Danchen had been cornered in wordplay by Long Chen, leaving him furious. Indeed, he did not know that the Battle clan would send Lei Zhen for the duel.

He would not be able to kill Lei Zhen today, but since he was here, how could he leave empty-handed?

His cold, golden eyes moved from Lei Zhen to Long Chen, whom he had ignored since the beginning. He gave a cold sneer and said, “You are weak, yet you have so much to say. May I ask what your name is?!”

“Long Chen.” Long Chen faintly guessed what Zhao Danchen was planning to do. Having successfully led Lei Zhen out of danger, half of his mission was complete. The next step depended on him.

Xiaolang clenched his fists. He was not an idiot, so he knew what Long Chen intended to do.

Everyone was close to each other, but their minds were all occupied with their own thoughts.

“Your name is Long Chen?” Zhao Danchen thought of the other person, who was one of the two well-known prodigies. His brows were furrowed, knowing that this Long Chen was not him. However, there was another Long Chen in recent news that had caused a huge commotion. Although he was also quite famous, he was just a clown in Zhao Danchen’s eyes.

Zhao Danchen lifted his chin up to ask, “Are you the one who killed the Void Martial Saint?”

Long Chen nodded without a word.

Zhao Danchen smiled and said, “You and Lei Zhen are both at the First Earthly Martial Stage. Since Lei Zhen is participating in the duel, then you won’t need to, right? I can’t kill Lei Zhen, but why would I let you live?”

Lei Zhen’s face changed and he quickly put Long Chen behind him without hesitation. He cried angrily, “Zhao Danchen, you shameless bastard!”

Zhao Danchen gave an impatient expression and said, “What do you mean, shameless? I came here from very far away; do you think I’m going to go back empty-handed? It’s your fault that you’re both at the First Earthly Martial Stage. Between the two of you, only one of you gets to live. Lei Zhen, who do you want to keep alive?”

Then Zhao Danchen chuckled in a very annoying manner.

Lei Zhen was so mad that his face turned red. He took a deep breath and said coldly without even thinking, “You bastard! If you want to kill someone, kill me! Long Chen will fight at the First Earthly Martial Stage duel!”

Even in the face of death, he did not want to burden his brother. This was Lei Zhen’s core belief!

“Seventh Brother, please go back and tell our brothers that I’ll hand the Battle clan over to them. Let Old Vulture take the position of clan leader for the moment. He is very experienced, so I feel assured letting him take the position!”

As he spoke, Lei Zhen looked like he was ready to die!

“How touching! I’m going to dig in, then! Lei Zhen, you’re the one who wanted this.” Zhao Danchen was indeed waiting for Lei Zhen to say this. Lei Zhen’s strong personality was going to be a major obstacle in the Martial Alliance’s attempt to subdue the Battle clan. That was why he had to come alone in the middle of the night to kill him!

Now that he was presented with the opportunity, he did not even wait for Long Chen to speak and attacked Lei Zhen!

“Xiaolang!”

At that moment, Long Chen and Xiaolang moved!

Long Chen had long known that Zhao Danchen would do this, so he was ready. When Zhao Danchen was speaking, he quietly activated his Dragon Soul Transformation. The moment Zhao Danchen moved, Long Chen suddenly pulled Lei Zhen’s arm!

He was much stronger than Lei Zhen, who was prepared to attack Zhao Danchen. He had not expected Long Chen to suddenly move too. After the Dragon Soul Transformation, Long Chen was very strong and tossed Lei Zhen behind him. He was ten times stronger than Lei Zhen in this form, plus Lei Zhen was caught completely off guard, so he was instantly thrown more than two hundred meters away!

When Lei Zhen realized what had happened, Long Chen had replaced him to face Zhao Danchen and started to fight him. More accurately, Long Chen was the one attacking Zhao Danchen!

He had the first-move advantage because of his speed!

“Awoo!”

A cold but regal howl rang from Long Chen’s side. There was a sudden flash of black fire, and Xiaolang, who had been standing quietly, suddenly grew bigger! In a very short time, Xiaolang returned to his Sun Devouring Wolf form!

At the same time, his cold howl pierced through the clouds. Every Battle clan member in the forest had surely heard his howl!

“Second Brother! Old Vulture!” After Xiaolang’s howl, Lei Zhen realized that it would be useless to rush forward. Chiding himself for being careless, he roared as loud as he could to call the two strongest people here!

When there were more people present, it would not be easy for Zhao Danchen to do anything!

They were not far from the place where Jiang Wuya and the rest were. At this point, it all depended on how long Long Chen could survive while facing Zhao Danchen.

While Lei Zhen shouted for Jiang Wuya and Old Vulture, he did not forget to rescue Long Chen!

He had intended to fight Zhao Danchen; how could he have guessed that Long Chen would do this!

Furthermore, how was Seventh Brother so strong just now? I could not even fight back!

This was the most confusing part to Lei Zhen.

Long Chen had long figured out that Zhao Danchen had snuck in here to kill Lei Zhen quietly. If there were more people present, not only would it make his task more difficult, but his reputation would be affected if this got out.

This was why Zhao Danchen wanted to slap Yang Ningfeng. Yang Ningfeng had chosen a route that did not involve military force, but to Zhao Danchen, having such a powerful military and not using it was the same as shooting themselves in the foot.

Long Chen knew what to expect. He only had to hold on until other people arrived. That was why he launched a storm of attacks from the beginning so Zhao Danchen could not react in time!

“Blood Devouring Domain!”
