Dragon War God-Chapter 353 - Pretend

Zhao Qingyun was laughing internally. That brat Long Chen was just too cunning. Everyone thought that he was pretending to be Long Chen while using his connections to get close to Zhao Qingyun. He was playing into this impression and making everyone think that he was weak. His acting was convincing enough, and the crowd erupted into laughter. Even the Third Demon Elder was completely relaxed. He decided he would toy with Long Chen for a while, then wrap this up.

Naturally, he did not dare overdo it, because Long Chen’s master, the Heavenly Demon Lord, was present. It would be bad if he became upset. After Zhao Qingyun’s warning just now, the Third Demon Elder knew that he had to give the Palace Lord face.

“Hey, kid, I’ll play with you. I’ll show you what the true Martial Dao is! Don’t worry, attack me with all you have!” The Third Demon Elder smiled.

“That’s impossible!” Long Chen gave a look of disbelief. He accelerated and arrived quickly in front of the Third Demon Elder. This time, he took out the Azure Dragon Halberd and attacked using Starsweep Dragon. Countless stars turned into dragons and flew right at the Third Demon Elder!

The Third Demon Elder dodged Long Chen’s attacks easily and laughed as he said, “That technique is not bad at all! However, I’m guessing that it’s only an elementary Earth-tier technique, right? This isn’t your most powerful move, is it, kid? It’s no wonder you’d dream of getting the Heaven-tier techniques. Your current skills are weak! Too weak! They can’t even be shown in public!”

When he finished speaking, he had already dodged Long Chen’s Starsweep Dragon. The Third Demon Elder did not even need to use Traceless Demon Shadow, because he knew that the more carefree he seemed, the lower Long Chen’s potential value would look. freeweb novel.com

“Even Starsweep Dragon can’t touch you? That’s impossible! Have a taste of this, then! I refuse to believe that even this can’t beat you! Attack!

“Azure Dragon Combat Technique, Nine Heavens Dragon Ascension!” He waved the Azure Dragon Halberd, and a large, illusory dragon image flew from near the Third Demon Elder’s crotch upwards. If it struck him, he would not be able to make more children. Then again, at his age, that thing was probably not useful anymore.

“This move is good too, but it’s far from being good enough ...”

The Third Demon Elder laughed coldly, then, before the halberd arrived, he reached into the halberd’s range of motion and punched its side. Long Chen was thrown back, tumbling several times on the ground before stopping.

Everyone burst into laughter at his pathetic reaction. They all knew that the Heavenly Demon Lord had not only recruited a useless direct disciple, but this disciple was also an idiot.

“He’s like his stepfather, only good for looks but is actually useless trash. You were bragging so much just now; I thought you actually had some talent. Unfortunately, this is the best you can do.” Yang Jun smirked coldly.

“The Palace Lord’s decision to recruit him is just too funny. I bet Long Chen will become a joke to everyone in the Heavenly Demon Palace.”

“Hehe, he is already a joke.”

The Third Demon Elder was secretly enjoying himself as he listened to the comments.

He sounded like he thought he could defeat Yang Jun, but he turned out to actually be useless trash. Though this brat really knows how to act, because it even convinced me.

The Third Demon Elder was a little speechless about Long Chen’s abilities. He had only gently pushed Long Chen’s halberd away, but Long Chen had been sent rolling away. If he truly wanted to attack him, Long Chen would have been dead.

Whatever. I need to finish him quickly. Based on his current performance, it’s not enough to defeat Yang Jun at all.

The Third Demon Elder arrived in front of Long Chen in the blink of an eye and asked sternly, “You brat, are you able to stand?”

Long Chen’s face was pale, and there was a hint of fear in his eyes as he peered at the Third Demon Elder. He struggled to crawl up on his feet, then gritted his teeth and said, “I haven’t lost! I am a Beast Warrior! I still have my Beast Soul Transformation!”

“Haha, show me your Beast Soul Transformation, then! I want to see how much it’ll boost your strength. Ten percent? One percent?” The Third Demon Elder stood lazily in front of Long Chen with a look of contempt.

“You’ll see!” Long Chen cried, as if mustering up his courage. Then he activated his Dragon Soul Transformation. Dense, red scales and spines gradually covered his whole body.

“Oh! Your Beast Soul Transformation looks good,” the Third Demon Elder said in an overly dramatic tone. He was in a great mood.

“Let me give you a taste of my most powerful move!” Long Chen declared indignantly.

He was still acting, and it was very convincing. It was an airtight performance. Not only had the Third Demon Elder let down his guard, even the audience was relaxed. They wanted to see how comical Long Chen’s most powerful attack would be.

Long Chen had them in the palm of his hand.

Zhao Qingyun was watching the duel unfold. Since he knew Long Chen well, he understood Long Chen’s plan.

So this is why this kid has managed to accomplish so many things that ordinary people cannot at such a young age. Based on how well he’s playing their minds, there’ll be a good show soon.

Just as Zhao Qingyun finished this thought, Long Chen, whose cultivation level had risen to the Seventh River Stage after the Dragon Soul Transformation, launched his most powerful attack at the defenseless Third Demon Elder standing at arm’s length!

Divine Fire Clone!

Blood Devouring Domain!

Soul Swallowing Gaze!

Dragon King’s Burial!

Long Chen used all four techniques at the same time. He used the Blood Devouring Domain to suppress the Third Demon Elder, restricting his movement, then surrounded him with 125 clones to block off his escape route in all directions. Surrounded by so many clones, the Third Demon Elder did not have enough space to use Traceless Demon Shadow! Then Long Chen used the Soul Swallowing Gaze to influence the Third Demon Elder’s mind. Although its effect was subtle, it was better than nothing!

Long Chen then unleashed Dragon’s King Burial, which was his most powerful attack!

Long Chen’s performance had made the Third Demon Elder completely let his guard down, but then Long Chen unexpectedly exploded with such a tight and terrifying setup. Not only was the audience shocked, even the Third Demon Elder froze. When he woke up, Long Chen had already sealed off his escape route using the Divine Fire Clones!

The 125 clones surrounded him tightly, looking like a giant flaming egg with the Third Demon Elder as the yolk in the center!

“What is this?!” The Third Demon Elder’s face changed. Under normal circumstances, Long Chen’s Dragon’s King Burial would not have been a threat to him. However, they were very close to each other, and Long Chen had suddenly exploded with a fatal attack. The Third Demon Elder believed that if he did not use a combat technique, he would be injured!

It was not unheard of for a master to be killed by a weaker opponent due to carelessness.

The Third Demon Elder had no time to think at such a critical juncture. In the face of this almost life-threatening attack, he instinctively unleashed his own attack, which was the Seven Killings Demon Finger. Seven consecutive attacks were launched, bringing with them a gust of wind. He was using an attack as defense against Dragon King’s Burial!

When the Third Demon Elder used the Seven Killings Demon Finger, it was not on a scale that Long Chen could withstand. However, using this attack meant that he had broken the rules he had set. At the very last moment, Zhao Qingyun appeared in front of the Third Demon Elder and caught the attack in his palm. Then he let go without even sustaining a single scratch.

The sudden twist in events caused the entire crowd to fall silent.

Long Chen put away all his clones and disabled the Blood Devouring Domain. He stood next to Zhao Qingyun and looked at the Third Demon Elder with a smile. The calmness he displayed made him seem like he was a completely different person from moments ago. The crowd now knew that Long Chen had been pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger.

Long Chen had to have considerable talent to be able to trick the Third Demon Elder and everyone else with his acting. They all felt a cocktail of emotions as they stared at the smiling teenager.

“Third Demon Elder, didn’t you say just now that you could only defend and dodge without attacking? May I ask why you decided to use the Seven Killings Demon Finger? Can I interpret it as this: dodging and defending were no longer enough to withstand my attack, and you had to use your advanced Earth-tier combat technique to survive? You must know that I did not even use an advanced Earth-tier technique!” Long Chen said, staring at the reddened Third Demon Elder.

A huge wave of shock crashed through the Third Demon Elder. He stared at Long Chen with great uncertainty, his heart torn. He knew that he had been tricked, and he never would have expected Long Chen to be able to unleash power on par with a Seventh River Stage cultivator.

What if ... he really is Long Chen from the rumors? This question slowly popped into everyone’s minds. They recalled that since his arrival, the attitude he displayed did not belong to a useless idiot. His ability to withstand humiliation and trick them just now was further proof. That trick showed that he had more patience than the average person and had mastered human psychology.

It was not a surprise for a person like that to evade the fate of death and kill an opponent much stronger than he was.

“Third Demon Elder, between Yang Jun and I, who do you think the winner is?” Long Chen asked with a grin as they all watched in shock.
