Supreme Dragon Lord-Chapter 305: Unexpected!

"Who’s there?" Chu Lingjun asked with a frown.

"Hahaha!" A burst of wild laughter responded. Immediately after, two figures flickered, appearing before Long Chen and Chu Lingjun in an instant. The newcomers were none other than Cai Bin and Wang Chong, and surrounding them were the Dark Moon Troops from Xuanyue Valley.

From the very beginning, the people of Xuanyue Valley had never left. Their initial claim of leaving was merely a ruse to convince Feiyu City, the Heavenly Water Sect, and the Divine Blade Sect to withdraw from Guiyuan Academy as well. After leading the Xuanyue Valley disciples away for a short time, Cai Bin had them stealthily return to lie in ambush. They did this to wait for Long Chen’s return, hoping to seize the Secret Treasure and Heaven Reaching Fruit from him. They were only trying their luck, but to their surprise, they actually managed to intercept Long Chen and Chu Lingjun.

Long Chen scanned the attire of the people before him, a flicker of recognition in his eyes. After a moment of thought, he asked coolly, "You’re from Xuanyue Valley?"

"That’s right," Cai Bin chuckled, his gaze fixed on Long Chen as if staring down his prey.

"Did you kill the people from my Guiyuan Academy?" As he spoke, Long Chen slowly clenched his fists, his eyes filled with a potent killing intent.

Before Cai Bin could respond, another figure stepped forward. A gloomy, hoarse voice called out, "Brat, do you remember me?"

With that, a figure appeared right in front of Long Chen.

When Long Chen saw the man before him, his eyes immediately narrowed.

"It’s you?!" he exclaimed. "You’re not dead?!"

Lu Hao chuckled, a mocking smile playing on his lips. "Surprised? Pleasantly so, I hope?"

A grim expression settled on Long Chen’s face. So there was a survivor after all? No wonder Guiyuan Academy suffered such a catastrophe. The secrets of the Sacred Ruins Forbidden Land must have been exposed.

At this realization, an immense guilt washed over Long Chen. He was the one who entered the Sacred Ruins Forbidden Land and took the Heaven Reaching Fruit, which led to the subsequent slaughter. The Heaven’s Chosen from Xuanyue Valley, the Heavenly Water Sect, the Divine Blade Sect, and Feiyu City were all slain inside the forbidden land. And now, Guiyuan Academy had suffered this terrible fate because of it.

Seeing the flicker of despair in Long Chen’s eyes, Lu Hao felt a wave of immense satisfaction.

He said coolly, "Brat, open your eyes and take a good look. This is the price for offending our Xuanyue Valley!

"It’s a shame you missed the most exciting part.

"Before you arrived, people from Feiyu City, the Heavenly Water Sect, and the Divine Blade Sect joined our Xuanyue Valley and wiped out everyone in Guiyuan Academy.

"If you had been there to witness their deaths firsthand, it would have been quite a feast for your eyes."

Hearing this, Long Chen’s eyes became bloodshot as a suffocating murderous intent surged from the depths of his heart.

"You’re courting death!" Long Chen roared.

The next second, he stomped his foot, and the ground beneath him instantly shattered. A terrifyingly powerful force erupted from him as he threw a punch straight ahead. A fierce wind howled as the immense power of his fist shot toward Lu Hao.

Facing the incoming strike, Lu Hao remained unmoved, a mocking smile spreading across his face. Just as the attack was two meters from him, another figure instantly appeared in front of Long Chen.

A sharp sword flashed with a cold light.

Long Chen’s pupils dilated!

BANG!

A fierce ripple of energy exploded outward from the point of impact, spreading in all directions. Long Chen and the other man were both forced two steps back.

"Brother Dong?!" A hint of surprise flashed through Long Chen’s eyes as he recognized the newcomer.

Dong Xuan’s face was a mask of indifference. He stared coolly at Long Chen without a word.

Meanwhile, a knowing look appeared in the eyes of Cai Bin and Lu Hao. Lu Hao taunted, "Dong Xuan, for a moment there, I thought you couldn’t bring yourself to act, sentimental about your fellow sect member."

Long Chen frowned and questioned Dong Xuan again, "Brother Dong, why are you with the people from Xuanyue Valley?"

"Long Chen, how dare you question me? Who do you think you are?!" Dong Xuan’s voice was frigid. "Guiyuan Academy ended up this way entirely because of you! You will bear full responsibility for this!"

Long Chen slowly lowered his head. Just as Dong Xuan said, this catastrophe was indeed intrinsically linked to him. Now that Guiyuan Academy had suffered so terribly, he truly had to do his utmost to bear that responsibility.

"Dong Xuan, didn’t you say the Heaven Reaching Fruit is on him? Go and take it!" Lu Hao chimed in, seizing the opportunity. "This is your chance to atone and join our Xuanyue Valley. You’d better cherish it!"

Hearing this, Dong Xuan’s eyes narrowed as a powerful aura erupted from his body. His face turned as black as ink. He became a blur, lunging directly at Long Chen.

"Brother Dong, stop!" Long Chen yelled, dodging backward instead of retaliating. "Let’s fight our way out of here together!"

But Dong Xuan didn’t say a word, instead launching a frantic, relentless assault on Long Chen.

BANG! BANG!

After a brief exchange, Long Chen focused solely on defending, showing no intention of fighting Dong Xuan seriously.

Cai Bin, Wang Chong, Lu Hao, and the other Xuanyue Valley disciples made no move. They simply stood by, quietly watching the show unfold. They held back mainly to see what Dong Xuan was truly up to and verify whether his submission was genuine or an act. More importantly, they had Long Chen and Chu Lingjun completely surrounded. With only two of them, victory would be child’s play. Thus, they didn’t consider them a threat at all. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

Watching from the side, Chu Lingjun grew extremely anxious. She could see that Long Chen had no intention of fighting back, yet Dong Xuan’s attacks were relentless, every blow aimed to kill.

Her heart raced with worry.

She leaped forward, quickly moving to Long Chen’s side.

"Stop!" Chu Lingjun shouted.

But Dong Xuan was unmoved, like a cold-blooded killer. He unleashed a continuous barrage of palm strikes, forcing Long Chen and Chu Lingjun to keep retreating.

"Don’t get bogged down in a fight," Long Chen transmitted his voice to Chu Lingjun. "Our situation is extremely dangerous. We need to find a way to break through this encirclement first."
