"The Ximen family supports me too?" Could it be that their brains are being squeezed by the door? Long Chen was taken aback.
Ximen Tianxiong had once attacked Long Chen and was clearly an enemy—how could he support him?
"I'm also puzzled, but the Ximen family has indeed expressed their support for you, believing that letting the Dragon Blood Legion resist the blood clan alone is very unfair.
Moreover, there is simply no evidence to directly prove that the surge of fortune is related to you. Subjective speculation is unfair.
With the support of the three great families, plus the backing of our Tianwu Alliance, the Divine Clan didn't show any reaction, only saying that this matter needs to be carefully considered.
The Divine Clan also said that the current Tianwu Continent could not withstand any internal friction, and hoped the major powers would stop engaging in pointless conflicts and would go all out to jointly confront foreign enemies.
So, I doubt anyone will make things difficult for you for now. Long Chen, try to control your temper a bit and never go against the Divine Clan. Qu Jianying said earnestly.
The Divine Clan had no connection with the Divine Clan's relatives. Targeting Long Chen and trying to excuse him was probably out of pity for talent. This was a good thing, and she sincerely hoped Long Chen could settle down and stop causing trouble.
Long Chen nodded and said, "I definitely won't go against the Divine Clan. You can rest assured—I, Long Chen, never provoke others." From
the Eastern Wilderness to Central Plains, Long Chen had never bullied anyone, not even encountering treasures that tempted him. He never considered killing or seizing treasures. All enemies came to him first, and if he didn't resist, he would die.
Strangely enough, wherever Long Chen went, there were always some reckless people provoking him. His current situation was all forced into it, and there was nothing he could do.
In the last battle between the Yin-Yang Realm, countless powerful enemies were slain, including two princes, but still couldn't intimidate them. They still wanted to kill him, which was an unsolvable mystery.
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, Qu Jianying's ring started flashing continuously. Qu Jianying was startled—it was an emergency messaging ring, only sent to her for major matters.
Qu Jianying read the information inside the ring, a look of shock appearing on his face.
"What's wrong?" Is there something going on with the blood clan? Long Chen asked anxiously.
"No, the Dongfang family was attacked. The Sea Demon Clan actually attacked them, leveling their residence to the ground, and then hung Dongfang Yuyang and slapped his face, slapping him hundreds of times. His face was unrecognizable, and he was so furious that he nearly lost control of his power, which was why the Sea Demon Clan released him." Qu Jianying's expression turned strange. This news came so suddenly that she could hardly believe it.
Long Chen laughed. As expected, eighty-three times out of nine had left the Sea Demon clan stunned. He drew several times, but the numbers still couldn't match.
"According to the information, the Sea Demon Clan dispatched two peak twelfth-rank sea demons and hundreds of thousands of powerful warriors to surround the Dongfang family. Even the old head of the Dongfang family was blocked, forced to watch helplessly as Dongfang Yuyang was humiliated.
And the person who slapped the face was actually from the Yin-Yang Realm, the man from the Hexagonal Sea Serpent clan whom you drove away. This... What exactly is going on? How could they possibly have an enemy with the Eastern Family? Qu Jianying looked completely bewildered.
Qu Jianying felt his mind was a bit lacking. How could these two completely unrelated forces be in conflict?
The Sea Demon clan ignored Long Chen, their arch-enemy, and instead attacked the Eastern family, with whom they had no grudges. This was truly baffling.
"Who knows? Maybe that kid just doesn't like Dongfang Yuyang's looks. For the first time, I think he's actually pretty good." Long Chen chuckled.
The Sea Demon Clan finally made a move. If they didn't act soon, I'd come knocking on them. The results were better than expected. It seemed the Sea Demon Clan also harbored resentment toward the Eastern family's trickery.
"What's strange is, he didn't kill anyone, just razed the Dongfang family to the ground and beat Dongfang Yuyang." Qu Jianying kept reading through the information, her face completely blank. She couldn't figure out what was really going on here.
Suddenly, Long Chen smiled like a sly fox, and he blurted out, "Kid, don't tell me you know something?" Long
Chen hurriedly waved his hand: "How would I know? I just heard the Dongfang family was dealt with, and I was overjoyed, unable to contain myself, hahaha..."
Just thinking about Dongfang Yuyang, that hypocrite, being beaten like a pig's head for no reason, made Long Chen burst out laughing. Even though he hadn't seen the scene, imagining it was just as satisfying.
Seeing Long Chen's schadenfreude, Qu Jianying was speechless. This guy really doesn't know how to control his emotions at all.
Qu Jianying inquired about the situation of the Dragonblood Legion and learned that they were all in seclusion cultivating, which put him at ease. He reminded Long Chen not to slack off and to make the most of his progress before leaving.
After Qu Jianying left, Long Chen directly sent a Recording Jade to Huayun Sect, and then the entire Tianwu Continent began to boil over.
During this period, major events have been happening one after another—from the Yin-Yang Realm war, to Long Chen slaying the Divine Clan's imperial relatives in the Great Xia Empire, to the Divine Clan holding the Tianwu Grand Festival—all have become topics of conversation in the cultivation world.
Just as the Tianwu Grand Meeting ended and the details of the event hadn't even been released, news spread everywhere: the Eastern Family, one of the Four Great Longevity Families, had actually been attacked by the Sea Demon Clan.
If it weren't for the Recording Jade spreading, people wouldn't have believed this news at all. When they saw the endless sea demon army charging into the Eastern family and frantically destroying the family, they were stunned.
Especially when they saw Dongfang Yuyang being captured, slapped mercilessly, and instantly beaten into a pig's head, everyone was left speechless.
In fact, this Yingying jade was not passed down by the Dongfang family, but was photographed by outsiders.
After all, the sea demon clan marching grandly onto the mainland attracted too much attention. Many people secretly followed to see what they were up to, while spreading the news. After all, the continent was extremely wary of the sea demon clan.
As a result, they captured a breathtaking scene. Just as people were stunned by the sight inside the jade and didn't know what was happening, another segment of the jade appeared.
When people saw that section of the jade record, their jaws nearly dropped to the ground. There are several scenes in this jade.
There was a scene of Long Chen storming into the East Sea, and a scene where Long Chen questioned the Sea King's powerhouse, asking who had ordered them to unleash the beast tide.
The last scene, and the most shocking of all, showed Long Chen standing before the Sea King expert, swinging his large hand repeatedly and slapping the opponent across the face, while the Sea King stood perfectly straight, not daring to move at all.
When people saw that scene, they went crazy—slapping Aquaman? That's someone on the same level as Master Tianyu. What is Long Chen up to? Is he going to fly?
After reading the entire Recording Jade, people understood its main idea: the sea demon launched a beast tide, Long Chen confronted the sea demon, who claimed it was provoked by the Eastern family, and Long Chen slapped them in anger.
They immediately understood why the Sea Demon Clan attacked the Dongfang family, and why they slapped Dongfang Yuyang in the face.
It turned out the beast tide was the Eastern family's scheme to expose the sea demon against Long Chen. People were in an uproar. When the beast tide first broke out, the Tianwu Continent's condemnation of Long Chen never ceased, wave after wave of condemnation, and Long Chen became the target of thousands.
All the damage caused by the beast tide was blamed on Long Chen. People now understood just how treacherous the Eastern family was—using the beast tide to harm others, yet making Long Chen take the blame, forcing him to face the criticism of the entire continent, and unable to focus on his cultivation.
"I didn't expect the Dongfang family to be like thisThis viciousness deserves it. Now that the truth is revealed, the Dongfang family will have to use their butts as their face from now on. After
learning the truth, people turned their fingers at the Dongfang family, and the label of hypocrite was finally rightfully pinned on Dongfang Yuyang.
Because Dongfang Yuyang had always targeted Long Chen, always acting righteous and justified. Thinking back now, it made people feel repulsed.
The Dongfang Shijia had painstakingly built a grand image for high-end auctions, but just like their buildings, they had been stripped bare, revealing their true faces. For a while, everyone was cursing them.
People just couldn't figure out how confident Long Chen was to slap the Sea King in the face and make him not dare to move. How did he manage to do it?
However, people were full of doubts but didn't dare to go to the sea demon clan to verify it—that would be no different from courting death.
Long Chen's Recording Jade once again caused a sensation across the entire continent. When Qu Jianying saw the two Recording Jades, she was both annoyed and amused. This rascal had even fooled her—this was clearly his doing.
When the old man saw the Shadow Jade, he nearly laughed so hard he passed out, drinking dozens of jars of wine and exhilarating in his heart.
All major powers received the Recording Jade, but their reactions varied. The Beitang, Nangong, and Ximen families all politely offered consolation and issued statements strongly condemning the Sea Demon clan's barbaric actions, then nothing more.
The forces of Dan Valley, Evil Path, Ancient Clans, Ancient Family Alliance, and Xuan Beast Clan were all completely baffled, completely unable to understand what was going on. Long Chen had struck Sea King, and Sea King still didn't dare to move. The scene was terrifying.
People had been watching the Dongfang family closely, hoping to see if they would retaliate against the Sea Demon clan, but the Dongfang family remained silent all along.
Dongfang Yuyang also did not appear again. It was unclear whether he had entered seclusion or was adjusting his mindset.
After all, while consolidating his realm, he was dragged out and beaten up, showing signs of deviation and demonic deviation. Many people feared that Dongfang Yuyang's impact on Tongming would slow down, because such an experience could easily cause inner demons.
The Eastern family remained silent about this, but the Divine Clan issued a warning, warning the Sea Demon Clan not to cause trouble.
From then on, the Sea Demon clan made no further sounds. After several days of spreading, this turmoil gradually began to subside.
On this day, someone arrived at the Chasing Cloud-Swallowing Sky Sparrow clan—they were actually from the Divine Clan.
