Long Chen's words were far too arrogant, actually calling the experts of the Four Great Divine Clans 'worthless,' his tone full of contempt, as if he didn't care about them at all.
The Long family's powerful figures instantly flew into a rage. Long Chen was a wanted criminal of the Long family, with experts gathering here, including monster-level powerhouses like Long Zaiye and Long Zimo. Long Chen's arrogance was practically courting death.
Not only the Long family's experts, but also the Zhao and Ye families' powerhouses were furious, looking as if they wanted to bite Long Chen to death.
When Feng Fei first entered the Jiang family, she recounted how Long Chen had become enemies with the Four Great Divine Clans.
Feng Fei did this to draw the Jiang family's attention, because the conflict between the Four Great Divine Clans and Long Chen had always been a forced choice for Long Chen.
Additionally, she wanted to use her experience to show them that Long Chen's potential was limitless, and no one knew where his end lay. The Jiang family had no reason to provoke him, as that was not in line with the Jiang family's development.
Although Feng Fei also admitted that after entering the Tianyuan World, Long Chen's invincible aura might be stripped away, even if it were, the Jiang family had no reason to get involved in the Long family's conflict.
Most importantly, with Feng Fei around, although Long Chen's relationship with the Jiang family wasn't exactly good, it wasn't bad either. She hoped the Jiang family could continue to exist.
When Feng Fei told her about Long Chen, all the attendees were senior members of the Jiang family. Some thought Feng Fei made sense, but others scoffed, thinking that if the Jiang family considered him, it would be like fearing him, weakening the Jiang family's reputation, and making them laugh at them.
However, most of the Jiang family's senior members remained calm, believing there was no need to stir up trouble. As long as Long Chen didn't provoke the Jiang family, they had no reason to make things difficult for him.
This Jiang family meeting was a secret meeting, but some among the Jiang family's senior members were careless and leaked Long Chen's affairs to the other three clans.
When they learned that Long Chen had once crushed three prodigies and trampled them underfoot—even though this happened on the Tianwu Continent in the lower realm—they still couldn't bear it.
Especially the Long family, who knew that Long Chen had wiped out branches several times was considered treasonous and must be executed.
Now that Long Chen had appeared, besides the Jiang family, the other three families were extremely excited. The Long family disciples were gritting their teeth, looking as if they wished they could kill Long Chen.
"Young people, don't be too arrogant. You need to know that trouble comes from the mouth. You can eat carelessly, but you must not speak carelessly." At this moment, a middle-aged man with a beard and a long sword on his back spoke coldly from within the Long family.
This middle-aged man was none other than Long Zimo, a super powerhouse among the younger generation of the Long family.
Long Zimo was renowned in the Long family, but compared to his brother Long Ziwei, he was still far behind.
Long Ziwei dominated the Chaos Era, his reputation rivaling Long Zaiye's, but he fell in the Great Chaos War.
The Long Ziwei Long Chen met before in the Long family was actually named after Brother Long Zimo. His parents hoped he could continue this peerless prodigy's reputation, just like the Long family had countless Long Zaiye.
Long Ziwei achieved his destiny in his youth, rising like a comet, becoming famous at a young age. But Long Zimo was different; his cultivation was slow and he remained unknown.
It took three thousand years just to advance to immortality, but once he advanced, his terrifying potential began to erupt.
The Long family originally thought he was a useless person, but unexpectedly, he was a late-blooming genius. Especially after advancing to Heavenly Saint, his strength showed signs of rivaling his brother. At that time, during the great upheaval in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, they sealed Long Zimo away, only now awakening him.
Long Zimo's strength was terrifying. He had fought Long Zaiye three times, losing each time, but he was the only one who could fight Long Zaiye for over a thousand moves.
As peerless prodigies, Long Tianrui had never fought Long Zaiye. She had challenged him several times, but he always refused. In his words, if she wanted to fight him, she had to defeat Long Zimo first.
Long Tianrui and Long Zimo had fought three times, losing twice and winning once. It could be said that their strength was very close.
However, before the two could continue their challenge, the Tianmai Profound Realm was activated. Everyone was forbidden from infighting and entered the Tianmai Profound Realm in their fullest state.
Because Long Zimo was older, his personality was calmer, but at this moment, Long Chen's arrogance made him angry as well, and he couldn't help but speak out to retort at Long Chen.
"If young people aren't arrogant, can they still be called young people? Huh? Senior, are you living a long life?" Only then did Long Chen notice Long Zimo's expression and was momentarily stunned.
Senior, your longevity may seem like nothing to others, but to Long Zimo, it's nothing short of the most vicious insult.
Because of his age, it was a pain he couldn't shake off. Although his strength was astonishing, among peers, countless people looked at him with strange expressions. While he didn't say much on the surface, there was always talk behind his back.
Countless people have said that Long Zimo's strength was actually built on age, which made Long Zimo extremely angry.
He hadn't expected that with just a casual remark, Long Chen would catch his weakness. Long Chen was a real troublemaker, always targeting the opponent's vital spots.
Long Zimo's face instantly darkened with anger, murderous intent surging in his eyes, and his large hand involuntarily reached for the long sword on his back.
Long Tianrui nearly laughed when Long Chen saw that just one sentence from Long Chen infuriated the scheming Long Zimo to such a state. This guy's ability to infuriate people was truly the best in the world.
Faced with Long Zimo's threat, Long Chen didn't even glance at him. He looked at Long Zaiye, looked up and down a few times, then said to Long Tianrui:
"This guy is a bit strong, but his looks are ... You can't choose him, or the next generation might be ... Orangutan."
"Pfft...
Long Chen's words took a sudden turn. Feng Fei, Jiang Yue'e, and Long Tianrui all burst out laughing at the same time. Although their hands quickly covered their mouths, their laughter still came out.
Everything was originally very serious, but Long Chen's mention of 'gorilla' instantly broke countless people's defenses. Because after Long Chen's reminder, when everyone looked at Long Zaiye again, the more they looked at him, the more they looked at him.
Long Tianrui suppressed her laughter, tried to be more serious, and said, "If you refuse to have children with me, there's nothing I can do. I have to find a supreme powerhouse to continue my bloodline."
"But you wouldn't be so disgraceful as to yourself, would you? A perfectly good flower stuck on such a huge pile of cow dung—what a waste.
You can wait a bit longer, you're sure to run into something even better." Long Chen hurriedly tried to persuade him.
Although Long Chen had never liked Long Tianrui, seeing such a beauty accompanied by such a monster made his scalp tingle and goosebumps rise just thinking of that scene.
"You foolish guy, do you think you can anger me like this?" However, to everyone's shock, Long Zaiye didn't seem angry. His gaze was icy as he looked at Long Chen:
"Let me ask you, are you really the successor of the Nine Stars?"
