Dragon War God-Chapter 316 - Killing the Ninth Prince

The clones were slowly being destroyed by the Ninth Prince, but Long Chen was like a wolf. While the Ninth Prince was attacking relentlessly like a tiger, Long Chen was slowly circling him while using the large number of clones to hide himself.

The Ninth Prince had been venting all of his anger and frustration after the death of Elder Yan on Long Chen’s clones. He had failed to realize that Long Chen was already behind him, and it was too late when he noticed.

Long Chen directed all of his clones to start suicide bombing the Ninth Prince. The Ninth Prince’s attacks were swift, but even he could not fend off so many clones at the Third River Stage. Many of the attacks slipped past his sword and landed on his body, leaving burn marks and bruises.

The elegant Ninth Prince was soon beaten bloody; his face had swelled up from the impact. He looked exactly like a toad, which was what Long Chen had called him just moments ago.

The Ninth Prince was in a hurry to quickly destroy all of the clones before killing Long Chen and Xiaolang. He would then take Ling Xi back to Yuqin Palace. Just then, he felt a deadly threat coming from behind him!

It came at the very same moment that the clones were concentrating their attacks to the fullest. The Ninth Prince had been so focused on the clones that he failed to realize Long Chen was just behind him!

“Azure Dragon Technique, Dragon King Burial!”

A thin, red line flew towards the Ninth Prince from just meters away!

Long Chen was a patient man; he had kept his strongest technique hidden until the most crucial moment. He had already used Starsweep Dragon and Nine Heavens Dragon Ascension in front of the Ninth Prince, and the latter had deflected them easily. The Ninth Prince assumed that Long Chen only knew those two techniques. The fourth stage of Divine Fire Clone had been a surprise to him, while Dragon King Burial was most definitely the biggest surprise. Long Chen had waited for the Ninth Prince to be surrounded by the clones before using it at the last possible moment!

It was hard to comprehend how deadly Dragon King Burial was, but the Ninth Prince felt it when it was directed at him. His surroundings faded into nothingness, replaced with a blood-red color, and a howling ancient dragon charged towards him!

The dragon was so big that the Ninth Prince knew that he could not possibly block the attack. He tried to retreat and dodge it, but it was useless—there was no escaping it!

Soul Swallowing Gaze!

Dragon King Burial was an attack that could intimidate its opponent and was considered part of a dragon’s authority. Long Chen used Soul Swallowing Gaze and magnified the illusion using Seduction. That was why the Ninth Prince was looking at something completely different.

“Die!” Long Chen roared. He stabbed the Ninth Prince’s chest with the Azure Dragon Halberd and punched a hole through it. His blood and organs were blown out from his back due to Long Chen’s strength. The Ninth Prince’s torso was hollow with a hole in it even though he was fine moments ago.

Long Chen pulled out his halberd and swung it to shake off the blood as if it was nothing special.

The Ninth Prince was still alive even though his organs had been destroyed. He stared at Long Chen with pain, regret, despair, and fear with bloodshot eyes.

“All I will say is that there’s nobody I can’t kill. It’s just a matter of time. Ninth Prince, your time is today.”

Those were the final words Long Chen said to the dying prince.

The Ninth Prince understood that the youth he was facing was not a country bumpkin that came from nowhere, but a genius that defied all logic. What made Long Chen fearsome was not his talent in cultivation, but his character.

The Ninth Prince collapsed to the ground. Everything was silent afterward.

Xiaolang had just killed Elder Yan. Ling Xi was staring at Long Chen with awe while Chen Lei and Chen Feng were both stunned.

Xiaolang didn’t think much of it; he had always known that he would have a hard time catching up with Long Chen. He was confident that Long Chen could defeat the Ninth Prince since he himself could defeat Elder Yan. Ling Xi clearly knew that there was a big gap between Long Chen and the Ninth Prince, but she had witnessed firsthand how Long Chen had managed to kill the Ninth Prince with flawless execution. She started crying from the feeling of absolute safety that he had given her.

Ling Xi looked very pitiful when she cried, but she was still as beautiful as an angel.

Long Chen felt fulfilled when he met Ling Xi again after so long. There was a pure aura radiating from her that made him calm down. All he had to do was stare at her eyes to feel calm.

He snapped out of his trance and smiled. He used the Azure Dragon Halberd to dislodge the Fire Essence Sword from the Ninth Prince’s dead hands. There were nine Fire Essences embedded in the sword, and they would help Xiaolang to grow further.

Long Chen realized that his stash of Heavenly River Pills was almost exhausted too; he had used the majority of them in the Counter Essence Realm. So, he took the Ninth Prince’s Universe Pouch. Since the pouches usually had a marking of the owner, Long Chen dared not take it. Instead, he emptied the contents and poured everything into his own pouch. He did a rough count and realized that the Ninth Prince had tens of thousands of Heavenly River Pills.

This was the largest sum of money Long Chen had ever seen!

But this was nothing compared to being able to elope with Ling Xi after killing the Ninth Prince. With a hop, he appeared in front of her. He stared at the beautiful girl in front of him, and she looked at him back with tearful eyes. Long Chen felt his heart ache a little and quickly hugged her. He was enveloped in her warmth and softness as he whispered, “Ling Xi, I’m so sorry for placing you in danger. I will never leave you from today onwards. No one can touch you as long as I’m here!”

Ling Xi was so happy that she could not form words. She cried as she hugged Long Chen tightly, her face buried in his chest. When Long Chen wasn’t around, she realized that she was more helpless than she had thought, and her worst fear had almost come true. She wouldn’t have lasted so long if she hadn’t done everything she could to delay the Ninth Prince.

“To think that that bastard dared to touch my woman. I will kill toads like him no matter how many of them pop up. If there are two of them, I will kill them both! If there are thousands of them, I will slaughter them all!” Long Chen jokingly said to lighten up the mood when he saw her crying.

“Hehe.” Ling Xi felt safe and warm when she was loved like this. She raised her head and saw the conviction in Long Chen’s eyes. She didn’t know when her heart was filled with him. All she knew was that no one could replace him.

Long Chen had killed the Ninth Prince for Ling Xi’s sake.

This was his largest victory yet. He had killed someone from the strongest faction in the Cangyang Kingdom, the Sword Emperor’s ninth son. The Sword Emperor was the strongest person in the Cangyang Kingdom.

This meant that Long Chen had to flee the Cangyang Kingdom with Ling Xi and Xiaolang as quickly as possible, or they would be hunted down!

Long Chen had decided that he was not strong enough to obtain the Nine Heavens Immortal Fruit yet. He would return once he became strong enough.

“Xiao Xi, I’m so sorry for not being able to bring back the Nine Heavens Immortal Fruit. It was much more difficult to find than I expected. I need to be at the Eighth River Stage at the very least to obtain it,” Long Chen said regretfully. freewebn ovel.com

“It’s alright. I know you’ve done your best, and I think I still like the way I am. I can hug you ...” Ling Xi blushed and hugged him again.

The softness of the embrace was tempting, but Long Chen knew that now was not the time. He held her face gently in his palm. “Don’t worry. I will make sure to get you the Nine Heavens Immortal Fruit. It’s just a matter of time. I will return to the capital one day, and no one, not the Sword Devil, or the Sword Emperor, or Lin Zichen will ever stop me.”

“Brother Chen, are we leaving now?” Ling Xi raised her head.

“Yes, we must leave the Cangyang Kingdom now. I’ve killed the young master of the Harmony family. The patriarch of the Harmony family is at the Eighth River Stage. If he comes after us, we’re dead ...”

Song Zhongcheng was indeed at the Eighth River Stage. Long Chen could never hope to defeat him even if he had more limbs.

When they prepared to leave, Xiaolang suddenly froze and became anxious. Long Chen realized that something was wrong and quickly looked back. He used the third stage of the Soul Swallowing Gaze, Sight, to quickly scan the area. Everything around him faded away, and Long Chen saw an incredible soul running towards them at great speed.

“Song Zhongcheng!” Long Chen hissed.
