Chapter 2226 - 2226 2216 Long Jue

2226: Chapter 2216: Long Jue 2226: Chapter 2216: Long Jue “Did it succeed?”

A sigh echoed around, Long Yan still hadn’t properly felt the enhancement brought by reaching the God King ninth stage when he was startled by this voice.

Xing Rou also failed to locate the source of the sound, just unsheathing her long knife with a wary look as she scanned the surroundings.

“No need to look any further, I’m right here.”

A man in a black robe appeared in front of Long Yan, dressed exactly like Huqiu, Yongli, and the others.

This must be the final Demon Guard.

Now that Long Yan’s strength had improved, he felt somewhat proud and did not take the man before him seriously.

Feeling Long Yan’s disdainful gaze, Long Jue did not mind at all, only flashing a faint smile as he introduced himself to Long Yan.

“My name is Long Jue, the strongest among all the Demon Guards.”

Long Jue’s pupils, unlike those of the other Demon Race, were unusually green and even emitted a faint ripple of power.

“Long Yan.”

This actually gave Long Yan a sense of strangeness.

Long Jue was completely different from the previous three.

One must know that the Demon Race, due to their inability to control their own power, would carry a green Monster Air, no matter how powerful they were.

However, none of this was found on Long Jue.

Of course, this did not represent Long Jue’s strength, but to Long Yan, this was very unusual.

“Of course, I am originally from the Holy Domain.”

Long Yan was taken aback to learn that the person before him was from the Holy Domain.

After all, most in the Holy Domain were Divine Emperor Powerhouses.

How could a Divine Emperor Powerhouse possibly serve as a subordinate to others?

“You’re right to think so.

Undoubtedly, I come from the Holy Domain and as you can see, I am not one of the Demon Race.”

Long Jue released his True Qi, devoid of any expression.

Of course, Long Yan noticed that Long Jue only had a Half-Step Divine Emperor Cultivation Base and had not yet reached the Realm of the Divine Emperor.

Normally the Demon Race cultivates Monster Air, so this True Qi was enough to indicate that Long Jue’s identity was certainly not of the Demon Race.

Meeting someone of the same kind in this world of the Demon Race left Long Yan with mixed feelings.

“Of course, it doesn’t matter.

The Cultivation World is all about stepping up by using others as stepping stones.”

Long Jue’s tone was calm.

He took out a long knife flickering with a cold light from his Storage Ring.

Seeing that Long Jue wanted to make a move, Long Yan waved his hand, and the Lu Xian Sword also fell into it.

Although he had many things he wanted to ask, Long Yan certainly did not have the habit of standing still for others to hack away at him.

Both men were strong.

Once they made a move, it would be earth-shattering.

Long Yan turned into a crimson beam of light, while Long Jue transformed into a green beam.

The two beams of light collided with each other in the sky, and the already shaky castle obviously could not withstand the battle between the two, with sand and stones continuously falling from the ceiling.

“This place is too cramped.”

Long Jue slashed out a snow-white blade light, which exploded upon hitting the ceiling.

He then flew through the hole in the ceiling, escaping outside.

Long Yan did not hesitate either, channeling enough True Qi in his left hand to lift Xing Rou from the ground and flew through the Cave Entrance.

Long Yan gently placed Xing Rou, who was in his arms, beside Bai Mu.

Long Jue was just quietly hovering in the sky behind, not seizing the opportunity to launch a surprise attack on Long Yan.

“Retreat the great army quickly, the battle to come is not something you can partake in.”

Hearing Long Yan’s words, the City Master of Heavenly Demon City was somewhat unconvinced.

Clearly, they had been able to help when Long Yan was slaying Demonic Beasts, but now he was saying they couldn’t lend a hand in the fight; against an opponent with multiple arms and heads, in front of their greater numbers, they were not worth mentioning.

However, Jingzhe and Bai Mu, without any hesitation, ordered the forces to retreat, which left him feeling somewhat confused.

He had no choice but to obediently follow the two and lead the great army to a distant place, watching the battle between Long Yan and Long Jue.

“Older brother, you say that these Four Great Demon Guards are also demons, what’s the fight that we can’t join in?”

The City Master of Heavenly Demon City complained resentfully; in reality, he feared that he wouldn’t get a share of the benefits after Long Yan killed the Demon King, convinced that he would certainly get a share if he contributed to the fight.

Every year, the resources paid as tribute by the three cities were astronomical, so the City Master of Heavenly Demon City had the preconceived notion that Long Yan must have found some treasure in the castle that he wanted to monopolize.

But just when he and Jingzhe expressed these thoughts, Jingzhe glared at him fiercely.

In Jingzhe’s view, this City Master of Heavenly Demon City was truly foolish.

Such a powerful individual should be courted rather than worrying about petty profits; he wondered what the City Master of Heavenly Demon City was thinking.

Seeing Jingzhe’s expression, the City Master of Heavenly Demon City wanted to say something more but did not dare to speak.

After all, the strength of Heavenly Demon City was not something that could be compared with that of Gigantic King City, so he simply kept silent.

He was curious to see how strong this powerful being really was.

Long Yan flew back to the top of the castle, where Long Jue had been waiting for him, without even uttering a single word to urge him.

“Is it taken care of?”

Long Jue knew that his only opponent from the very beginning was Long Yan.

As for the swarming Demon Soldiers below, Long Jue did not take them seriously at all.

“Mm.”

With a slight nod, a long silence fell between the two.

An overwhelming and terrifying momentum burst forth from Long Jue, like a wild beast or raging flood, startling even the distant Bai Mu and others, causing the previously arrogant City Master of Heavenly Demon City to be so frightened that he sat down on the ground.

“My goodness, how can somebody possess such a terrifying presence.”

The only one in the scene not oppressed by the imposing aura was Long Yan.

The Lu Xian Sword in his hand flashed with a cold light, and the stars in the sky behind him formed a towering Star Dragon that coiled around Long Yan.

The Nine Star War Dragon Decision had been nearly mastered by Long Yan, who even had a premonition that his Star Sword Technique would reach an even higher level.

The fragile castle emitted a series of cracking sounds.

Under the immense pressure of Long Jue and Long Yan, the already crumbling castle finally gave in to the burden, with a lament it broke into countless pieces and collapsed.

As if responding to a signal, both of them charged towards each other.

The sound of blades clashing and True Qi flying created a scene that seemed to hammer the hearts of all the onlookers.

Now, the City Master of Heavenly Demon City understood why Long Yan had said that this was a fight they could not help with.

“Hahaha…

exhilarating.”

Laugh after laugh burst forth from Long Jue, his Long Knife mixed with a cyan glow struck upon the Lu Xian Sword.

Guided by Long Yan, the mighty Star Dragon fiercely collided with Long Jue’s Long Knife, and the tremendous power instantly sent Long Jue flying several meters away.

Barely steadying his form, Long Jue gathered True Qi in both hands, and an Azure Dragon Illusion charged at the towering Star Dragon.
