Chapter 5022 - Chapter 5022: Time to Lay Your Cards on the Table

Long Chen saw the look in Long Tianrui's eyes and knew exactly what she was about to say. This was the first time in his life he had ever felt such a headache with a woman.

Most importantly, Long Chen didn't distinguish her by calling her an enemy or a friend, nor could he label her as a fool or a wise person. This guy's way of thinking is beyond what most people can understand.

"Fairy Tianrui, please advise!"

At this moment, the man opposite Long Tianrui first bowed respectfully, then slowly drew his weapon to show his respect.

Long Tianrui nodded, looked at the man, said nothing, and just stared at him.

The man first took a step back, but the moment his weapon pointed at Long Tianrui, his body suddenly stiffened.

At that moment, the entire arena seemed to freeze for a moment, and the experts outside were all stunned.

What's going on? Long Tianrui clearly told him to act, so why didn't he move? Long Tianrui kept quietly watching the man.

Long Chen stood on the arena, his heart pounding wildly. At this moment, the arena was enveloped by a strange aura, and Long Chen was enveloped as well.

At that moment, it was as if thousands of Long Tianrui were on the arena, watching Long Chen from different angles. No matter what he did, the other party saw it clearly and couldn't hide it.

Her eyes could even pierce through a person's soul; no secret could be hidden, and the powerful soul power could crush one's will.

Long Chen knew this was Long Tianrui's perception. It was the first time he had encountered such a terrifying sensation, as if every move he made next was within her foresight—unbreakable, irresistible, and utterly despairing.

And this perception must be a kind of talent—a terrifying talent. Long Chen looked at Long Tianrui, and Long Tianrui looked back at Long Chen. At that moment, the scene on the arena was almost frozen.

However, judging by the disciple's trembling body and the sweat beading on his forehead, it was clear he was struggling desperately.

However, at first, Long Tianrui was watching him, and he immediately felt endless pressure, his will nearly collapsing.

Later, when Long Tianrui looked at Long Chen, his pressure instantly eased considerably. From that moment on, he was no longer a match for Long Tianrui, as if he were the referee, or perhaps the witness.

"Clang!"

Finally, a crisp sound shattered the silence on the arena. The weapon in the man's hand could no longer be held and fell to the ground.

At this moment, Long Tianrui withdrew his senses. The disciple seemed to lose all support, collapsing to the ground and gasping for breath.

"Long Tianrui wins!"

Long Chen shouted, sending the disciple off the arena and leaving himself. Long Tianrui was strong, but he wasn't afraid.

But Long Chen was afraid that her endless pestering would drive him crazy, so he didn't give him a chance to speak and ran off directly.

After returning to his residence, Long Chen recalled Long Tianrui's terrifying perception and was still somewhat shocked. It was a mere innate skill, yet it could subdue enemies without a fight, leaving no one even having the courage to intervene.

Most importantly, this was just the tip of the iceberg of her strength. Beneath the calm surface, no one knew how much power she was hiding.

"No wonder she chose a strong child. If she chose someone of average ability, whose talent can't be passed on to the next generation, it would be a pity!" Suddenly, Long Chen began to understand Long Tianrui.

"Maybe we should consider it?"

"Ptooey, ptooey, what are you thinking about?"

Long Chen was speechless, quickly discarding those unrealistic thoughts in his mind and taking out his Amethyst Heavenly Eyes to observe again.

Long Chen suddenly realized that the outer grand array had been completed. The entire Tianhuang Domain was surrounded by countless formation disks, each beam shooting out into the clouds. Using his Purple Crystal Heavenly Eyes to look upward, he found that the entire Tianhuang Domain seemed to be enveloped in a prison.

"Heh, Brahma Pill Valley really went to great lengths to catch me!" Long Chen chuckled, feeling a faint sense of pride in his heart.

However, Long Chen knew that the reason the Brahma Pill Valley valued him so highly was not because he killed the Hall Master of the Fire God Hall, but because of Lingxiao Academy.

With the Battle God Hall Master making a strong return, Lingxiao Academy was no longer something Brahma Pill Valley could easily control. Now, their attention was fixed on the lone Long Chen.

If Long Chen were taken down by Brahma Heaven Pill Valley, it would be a heavy blow to Lingxiao Academy, which is why such a large-scale mobilization was warranted.

Long Chen focused his gaze and noticed that in the outer area of the Long family's territory, several figures were busy constructing the second layer of formation.

Long Chen examined it carefully. Although he didn't know much about formations, he had encountered many of them with Xia Chen before, so he could tell it was probably a trapping formation.

The distant grand array was meant to block the secrets of heaven and deceive perception, but this formation was meant to besiege Long Chen. Once the formation was completed, even a Twin-Vein Heavenly Saint would have no chance of escaping.

However, Long Chen was momentarily stunned when he saw this, then suddenly understood: "So, these guys aren't stupid. They didn't tell Brahma Heaven Pill Valley about the Qiankun Cauldron. They want to secretly monopolize the cauldron for themselves." "

Because if Brahma Pill Valley knew there was the Qiankun Cauldron here, they wouldn't bother with such useless effort. What formation in the world could block the cauldron?" Wouldn't it just leave a hole in the mess?

When Long Chen saw the trapping array they had set up, he immediately understood what the four great families were up to.

"Hehe, this is pretty good. We'll clean up together when the time comes." Long Chen chuckled, his eyes filled with ruthless intent.

The enmity between Long Chen and Great Brahma is irreconcilable. The destruction of the Tianwu Continent was a conspiracy, and the mastermind behind this conspiracy was Great Brahma.

Although when the Tianwu Continent was destroyed, the dragon clan powerhouses used supreme divine powers to transfer all living beings there.

But the fallen warriors of the Dragonblood Legion would never return. Just thinking of those warriors made Long Chen's heart ache unbearably. This hatred could never be erased. Although he couldn't deal with Great Brahma right now, killing some of his followers to ease his anger was still a good choice.

"Senior..." Long

Chen began summoning the Qiankun Cauldron.

"Buzz"

At that moment, a rune appeared in Long Chen's hand, and the voice of the Qiankun Cauldron rang out:

"I am at a critical moment now. Hand this rune to Qin Feng. If a mutation occurs, I will send them away immediately. There will be no danger."

Long Chen was about to ask when the Qiankun Cauldron would make his move. He wanted Qin Feng and the others to move first, but unexpectedly, the Cauldron seemed to have anticipated this and directly handed him a rune.

With the words of the Qiankun Cauldron, Long Chen was completely at ease. After secretly giving the runes to Qin Feng, he once again focused on his secluded cultivation. When Long Chen emerged again, he could already perform his Dragon Blood Cross God-Slaying Technique eighty times in one go. He found that the further he went, the easier it became—completely different from what he had previously expected. It seemed it wouldn't be long before he could meet the requirements of the Qiankun Cauldron.

When he emerged that day and arrived at the arena, Long Chen found that Qin Feng and all the mercenaries had gathered together, without any divisionand dispersed to sit.

At that moment, Long Chen understood—today was probably the time to lay his cards on the table.
