"Pfft!"
Wherever the golden light passed, blood mist exploded. No one was seen, and the person was slain with a single sword strike.
Bai Xiaole and the others were confused, not knowing what had happened, and even less that while they were eating and drinking, someone was secretly peeking in.
"Impressive! He didn't even hit the mark, but the sword energy residual force can kill a late-stage Divine Lord Realm expert." Long Chen gave a thumbs up, his face full of admiration.
The earth carved a thousand-thousand-li trench, and above the deep trench was covered in golden powder. With a casual slash, it summoned all the golden power within the earth.
No wonder Bai Shishi couldn't put down this sword—its power was terrifying. Long Chen couldn't imagine how terrifying it would be if Bai Shishi wielded it at full strength.
"Who is that person?"
Bai Shishi asked. She didn't see anyone at all, nor did she sense anything. Long Chen pointed in that direction, and she slashed her sword in that direction.
"Who else could it be?" Those persistent ghosts from the Blood Kill Hall are huh? These guys really have some skills, coming looking for us so quickly. Long Chen curled his lips, a hint of disdain on his face.
The people from Blood Slaughter Hall really have some skills. They traveled secretly all the way, and once they entered Yuhua Palace, their whereabouts were exposed. The Blood Slaughter Hall had already set its sights on them so quickly.
They are like hunting dogs on the grasslands, with especially keen noses that can track their prey by following their scent.
However, Long Chen was not the prey; he was a hunter, and when prey came to him, he would show no mercy.
"Exposed so quickly?" So what about our mission? Bai Shishi's expression changed slightly.
Long Chen laughed: "You silly girl, when I arrived at Yuhua Palace as the head of the Seventh Branch of Lingxiao Academy, there were no secrets left to speak of." "
If you call me silly girl again, I'll be mad at you."
Bai Shishi's face was full of anger, but she couldn't help but say, "Are you stupid?" The Vice Dean had given instructions. This is an extremely secret mission. If you make such a big announcement, wouldn't that make them prepare in advance? "
Tch, they have their own plans, and I have my own principles. The academy has been playing chess with Great Brahma for so many years without any improvement. Why should I follow their usual rules?
In this world, not everything should be planned and decided first. Do whatever you want, do as you please, adapt to changing circumstances.
I don't know how to play chess, nor do I understand strategy. If I play tricks with them, won't I be completely outsmarted? "Long Chen said with a mix of exasperation and amusement.
"So what do you plan to do then?" Bai Shishi said.
"Just go straight to the Evil Dragon Domain and check things out." Long Chen said.
"That's it?"
"That's it." Long Chen nodded.
"Not a single plan?" Bai Shishi's beautiful eyes widened.
"What kind of plan do you need for this? Do you really think just a few of us can actually accomplish this task? Aren't you being too naive! Long Chen shook his head and told Bai Shishi to directly take out the flying boat. Everyone boarded the boat and roared away.
"Long Chen, don't tell me you never took this seriously." Bai Shishi said solemnly.
Bai Shishi knew how important this matter was to Lingxiao Academy. Long Chen's careless attitude made her heart sink a little. Could Long Chen be just tricking a dean for fun?
Long Chen smiled warmly at Bai Shishi, her beautiful cheeks like white jade, flawless and flawless, leaving no flaw to be found. Admiring such a beauty up close was truly a blessing.
Bai Shishi felt a bit uneasy under Long Chen's staring gaze, glaring and saying,
"We're talking about business!"
"Your skin is pretty good." Long Chen nodded seriously.
"Get lost, I've already said it, we're talking about business. Don't talk nonsense." Bai Shishi was so angry she wanted to hit someone, her face flushed with rage.
"I've already said, I have my own way of doing things, and the path I walk is different from most people. If you think there's something wrong with my approach, you can go back.
When I do things, I don't like being asked back and forth, nor am I used to explaining to others. If you agree with me, just follow me—through fire and water, don't ask about the future.
If you don't agree with me, there are many paths. Everyone should go their own way, and no one should hold anyone back. Long Chen looked out the window and said calmly.
Long Chen's words were a bit blunt, but he couldn't help it. Bai Shishi was too strong-willed and had her own opinions on everything.
She always wants to know what to do next, how to do it, and what the overall situation is. To put it bluntly, she's someone who excels at control.
But Long Chen always acted wildly and spontaneously, never having any plans. Bai Shishi's pressing made him feel a bit angry.
As the saying goes, 'There are no two suns in the sky, no two commanders in an army.' There can only be one commander. If anyone disobeys orders, sooner or later things will be ruined.
Bai Shishi was stunned. She hadn't expected Long Chen to turn hostile so easily, and Bai Shishi's face instantly darkened.
Seeing this, Bai Xiaole, Qin Feng, and the others hurried to another cabin and closed the door to avoid disaster.
Long Chen pretended not to notice Bai Shishi's change of expression and continued to gaze out the window.
"Tick-tock tick..."
But what Long Chen didn't expect was that tears actually streamed down Bai Shishi's face. Even this strong young woman could shed tears sometimes.
Long Chen looked at Bai Shishi with a bit of confusion. Bai Shishi said nothing, suddenly turning her face away from Long Chen.
For a moment, the flying boat fell silent. After a while, Long Chen helplessly took out a handkerchief and handed it to Bai Shishi.
At first, Bai Shishi ignored her at all, but after a while, she reached out her delicate hand, took the handkerchief, and gently wiped away the tear stains from her face.
"This is the first time in my life I've been made to tears by someone else, and you're the first." Bai Shishi said coldly.
"That's because before anyone could make you cry in anger, you chopped you to death." Long Chen shrugged, speaking somewhat helplessly.
"Pfft"
made Bai Shishi laugh. After laughing, she suddenly felt a bit embarrassed and turned her face away.
"You bastard."
Bai Shishi was both embarrassed and annoyed, feeling unsatisfied. She reached out and pinched the soft flesh at Long Chen's waist hard.
"Oh no..."
Caught off guard, Long Chen let out a startled cry. Qin Feng and the others, who were hiding in another room listening to the sound, exchanged glances and put on expressions of helplessness.
Long Chen looked at his waist and saw it was bruised from the pinching. Bai Shishi's move was ruthless, actually using the power of gold.
Seeing Long Chen staring at her, a hint of pride flashed in Bai Shishi's eyes, as if she had finally let out a sigh of relief.
"Alright, you're capable, you really are. I won't hold it against you, but there's one thing I need to clarify with you."
Since you're out with me, there's no need to use your brain. Just listen to me. I won't say that a second time. Long Chen said angrily.
Bai Shishi said nothing, neither agreeing nor refusing. Several days later, after several teleportations, the flying boat finally sailed into the territory of the Evil Dragon Domain.
"Roar!"
Just as he entered the territory of the Evil Dragon Domain, a furious roar shook the sky and startled everyone.
