Chapter 1451 - 1451 1437 The Death of Longhun

Chapter 1451: Chapter 1437: The Death of Longhun Chapter 1451: Chapter 1437: The Death of Longhun Su Zhanze was of course delighted. As long as she confirmed Longhun was here, by killing Longhun, it would be the equivalent of completely taking care of the Dragon Slaying Clan. The threat of Longhun would be a thing of the past, and she would have her revenge. She could then focus all her attention on dealing with the Demon Domain, the Thirty-Six Isles, and the issues in the Wastelands. She asked, “Is it just Longhun alone?”

“Yes, just him by himself, he didn’t bring his subordinates.” the messenger replied.

“Hmm, good, as long as he’s here, that’s all that matters. Once he’s dead, the Dragon Slaying Clan will be dealt with.” Chen Yu said.

Su Zhanze called out, “Alright, bring that girl out. After all, it’s only right that Longhun should see her one last time before she dies. It would be too inhumane otherwise.”

In the middle of the wilderness, Shi Xueqin, holding her child, never thought that Longhun would actually come. She knew that Su Zhanze wanted to kill Longhun and she cried out, “Hurry and go, Su Zhanze wants to kill you.”

Longhun knew, of course. He smiled faintly. He noticed that Ling Li beside Shi Xueqin didn’t seem as agitated as before. Even though Longhun was also the one who killed his father, he had still done a good deed before his death.

Ensuring that the girl was okay, Longhun called out, “Girl, it’s good that you’re unharmed.”

“You hurry up and go, don’t worry about us.”

Longhun smiled and said, “Ling Li, trouble you for a favor. Please take them away.” He didn’t want Shi Xueqin to witness what was about to happen.

Shi Xueqin was overcome with emotion, not expecting Longhun to actually show up. She had been prepared to die and had thought about asking Ling Li to take care of her child, but Longhun had come after all.

“You’re so foolish. Why return after escaping?”

With a smile, Longhun simply said, “I am sorry for the harm I’ve caused you. Please start your life over well.” He believed that Ling Li would certainly take good care of her.

“No, you need to get away quickly.”

Calling out, Longhun shouted, “Ling Li, please help them leave.” It seemed there was nothing more to say.

Ling Li instructed his men to take Shi Xueqin away. Although she was unwilling to leave, crying a river, Ling Li quickly ushered the mother and child away.

“Who would have thought that the renowned Longhun would give up his own life for a woman? This is truly unexpected.” Su Zhanze let out a cold laugh.

Longhun glanced at the sky and said, “That surprises you! Using a woman and a child, your methods are not very clever. Otherwise, capturing me wouldn’t have been so easy.”

“Yes, it’s not very clever. But at the beginning, didn’t you do the same, using a woman to threaten me?”

Longhun recalled and said, “Indeed, there was such a matter. It seems you still hold it to heart and haven’t let go. You wish to take revenge on me.”

Su Zhanze looked at Longhun and said, “You seem quite dissatisfied.”

Longhun didn’t really want to provoke this guy. He had heard that Ren Haotian had provoked him and ended up being struck dead with a single sword blow. Now, although Longhun had resigned himself to his fate, he was more worried that Su Zhanze’s anger might endanger Shi Xueqin and the child. He said, “Of course I’m not satisfied. You just happened to profit from the situation. You’re not the one who truly defeated me.”

“Are you saying that Ye Chen was the one who defeated you.”

“Neither is that the case. Even after my crushing defeat in the valley, left with only a handful of men, didn’t you still let us escape? If you hadn’t resorted to these tactics, would you have been able to capture me?” Longhun said coldly.

“Heh, spare me the nonsense. I just didn’t want to waste any more time on you.”

“Is that so? Are you afraid that the fellows from the Demon Domain might join forces against you?”

“That bunch of fools are no serious threat.”

“That’s true. I believe that too. If it weren’t for Ye Chen, they wouldn’t know how many times I’ve beaten them, including this time. If it weren’t for him, would you have been able to break out from my encirclement, and then, at the moment when we were evenly matched, release the Spiritual Stones?”

“Heh, your dissatisfaction doesn’t matter because I did something you couldn’t do.”

“I’m afraid there are many who are not convinced by you. With the means you used to obtain everything, will the people from the Demon Domain accept you? And with your character, assassinating Ren Xiongbei and Fang Ziren, driving the one who saved you into madness—how can anyone accept you?”

“Did you come here today planning to reason with me?”

“No, just talking casually. Since you asked if I’m convinced, of course I am not. I am more convinced by Ye Chen, not you.”

“That guy has gone mad.”

“He was too trusting and failed to see what kind of person you are.” Longhun stated coldly.

“It seems you still find it a pity.”

“Yes, before I met him, I had no opponents. He defeated me time and again, and now to end up in such a state, of course, I think it’s a pity.”

“You don’t think I’m a bit more clever this time?”

“Clever in what way!”

“I managed to defeat you all together. No one would have expected that.”

Seeing this guy seemed to care quite a bit about that, arguing with him was pointless. Now that he knew Shi Xueqin was safe, he felt relieved and said, “You didn’t defeat us fair and square.”

“What difference does it make? As long as I can defeat you, that’s enough.”

“Alright, I have arrived. It’s clear that this time, you won’t be satisfied until I’m dead. I hope you’ll do as you said, let the mother and child go, and be a man of your word.”

“Rest assured, I’ll keep my word.”

“Come then, whether you want to be cut a thousand times over or have your skin peeled and tendons plucked, just inflict it upon me. If I yell for mercy, I’m no Longhun.”

Su Zhanze called out, “Bring the wine over.”

“You want me to drink poisoned wine?”

“Well, considering we once worked together, I’ll leave you a whole corpse.”

“That’s a decent thing to do, but honestly, I don’t care. When a man dies, who cares whether his body is left intact or thrown into the wilderness?”

However, Su Zhanze said, “No, you’ve taught me a lot, and without you, I wouldn’t be where I am today, nor would I have been able to push myself to unlock such potential and achieve such splendor.”

Someone had already brought the wine over.

“Wow, I really didn’t expect to hear that coming from you; quite a surprise,” Longhun said coldly.

“Surprised?”

“I thought you’d want to peel my skin and pluck my tendons since I’ve caused you so much harm. Yet you’re saying I taught you many things, leading to your achievements today.”

“Everything I said is true. Without your constant provocation driving my growth, I would not be where I am today. Of course, this is just the beginning. After you’re dead, I will start by uniting the Immortal and Demon Domains, then everything else will fall into place. It’s not yet the peak of glory, something you dreamt of doing but never achieved, yet I will fulfill it.”

“That’s impressive. It seems you’ve developed quite the ambition. I thought you would continue deceiving yourself into being a good man.”

“There’s not a single good person amongst those in the Immortal and Demon Domains.”

“That’s not entirely true. There are indeed a lot of particularly bad people, but there are also plenty of good ones. Ye Chen is the best I’ve ever met, even though he didn’t have a good end,” Longhun said as he poured himself a drink.

Su Zhanze was still carrying the Dragon Slayer Sword.

“Dying by my hand won’t be unjust for you.”

“Not really, if I could choose, I’d rather die at the hand of Ye Chen than yours.”

“He’s gone mad with power.”

“Right, he’s gone mad with power, but it was he, whom I admire so much, who’s defeated me time and again. Without him, you might not have won this time.”

“I admit, without him, I’m no match for you.”

“Oh, I thought you’d never admit to that, always thinking so highly of yourself,” Longhun squinted and put the cup down.

Su Zhanze said, “You’re a legendary figure after all. I’ll ensure you’re buried with honor.”

Longhun smiled faintly, gazing at the sky, never imagining he would die so peacefully. The quiet breeze brushed past, and before his eyes flashed the image of Shi Xueqin, as if traveling back to a time long past.

The poisoned wine took effect quickly; his head began to spin and his eyes started bleeding. He lost his balance and fell.

Su Zhanze, watching the whole sequence, called out, “Go check on him.”

The person who went to check the pulse soon returned, announcing, “He’s dead.”

Su Zhanze’s face showed no expression, as if nothing had happened.

Chen Yu said, “With Longhun dead, they’re dragons without a head. Crushing the remnants will be as easy as blowing dust away.”

Looking at the corpse, Su Zhanze commented, “He probably never thought he’d die so uneventfully.”

“The fool deserved to die long ago.”

“We should immediately eliminate the rest,” said an aide from behind.

“Without Longhun, those people are nothing to worry about. Even if they live, they merely cling to life. After today, there will be no more Dragon Slaying Clan. I’ve avenged myself and lost a rival,” Su Zhanze said, now free of a threat.

“What about the others?”

“I’m returning to Immortal City,” Su Zhanze replied.

Chen Yu said, “Yes, we should consider carefully how to unify the Immortal and Demon Domains next, then the 36 islands, and also the Wastelands, to complete our grand undertaking.”

“With Longhun dead and Ye Chen mad with power, no one will be able to stand against us.”

“Indeed.”

“Any news of Ye Chen?”

“None for now; he must have gone mad with power.”
