Chapter 2245 - 2245 2235 The Arrival of Ouyang Zhen

2245: Chapter 2235: The Arrival of Ouyang Zhen 2245: Chapter 2235: The Arrival of Ouyang Zhen Strictly speaking, the inner world has already merged with the Demon Suppressing Tower; the storage ring, however, is a separate space.

Since they had acquired the Demon-Sealed Sword, there was no need for further entanglement, so the two decided to return to the inner world.

Zhiyan told Long Yan that there were still other things within the formation, and Long Yan had not expected that the Green Vine Conference he attended would lead to so many events.

Now, he would have to battle with a Demon Beast that only existed in legends.

Of course, he had no regrets.

When he returned to the previous fourth floor, Long Yan unexpectedly saw a surprising figure.

“Brother Long?”

Ouyang Zhen had been utterly confused during this period; the fifth floor of the Demon Suppressing Tower was like a maze.

Although the monsters inside were not dangerous, the complex terrain was overwhelming.

It was Long Yan who found the way out after asking others.

If it weren’t for Ice Girl’s direction to Long Yan, he might have also been lost in this fifth floor.

Seeing Long Yan now was incredibly exciting.

Actually, another reason for his excitement was that Ouyang Zhen had thought Long Yan would surely die at the hands of that person on the fourth floor.

Who would have thought that Long Yan was still alive, and even appeared more put-together than Ouyang Zhen himself.

Ouyang Zhen carried a strange odor as he had been wandering around this fifth floor for the past several days.

“Did you come here alone?”

Long Yan looked at Ouyang Zhen with a surprised expression; he did not expect that in just a short period, Ouyang Zhen’s strength had improved so much.

Hearing this, Ouyang Zhen just smiled sheepishly.

Of course, he didn’t come here on his own.

Without his own strength, he would never have made it to this place.

It was Feng Tianlu who followed them and dealt with the monsters along the way; in fact, Ouyang Zhen hardly ever had to take action himself.

It’s just that everyone else believed that Long Yan was unlikely to survive, so they all left.

Now only himself remained on this fifth floor, not giving up.

Looking at Long Yan, Ouyang Zhen just grinned foolishly; he had always believed that Long Yan was still alive.

After all, in his heart, Long Yan was a true Strong One.

Hearing Ouyang Zhen’s words, a warm current rose in Long Yan’s heart.

Such a person as Ouyang Zhen was indeed rare in the Cultivation World.

If there came a day when Ouyang Zhen was in trouble, he would certainly do his utmost to help him.

However, the pressing matter was to face the Fire Demon Beast.

Long Yan did not know whether Ouyang Zhen’s arrival was a good or bad thing.

Seeing Long Yan’s expression, Ouyang Zhen seemed to have guessed something, especially with Bai Mu at Long Yan’s side.

If Ouyang Zhen was not mistaken, this Bai Mu in front of him was a Demon Cultivator who was not at all weaker than himself.

It was known that Ouyang Zhen, in reality, was a genius disciple of the Heaven and Earth Gang.

The Demon Cultivator present did not seem very old but could compare to him.

Ouyang Zhen could not have expected that Long Yan would meet such a figure within the Demon-Sealed Tower, which made Ouyang Zhen keep praising him.

However, seeing Long Yan’s face with a hint of strangeness, he knew there must have been an incident.

“Brother Long, what exactly happened?”

Ouyang Zhen curiously asked Long Yan, wanting to know what kind of situation would cause a person like Long Yan to reveal such an expression.

There was no need to keep the situation a secret, so Long Yan simply told Ouyang Zhen about the condition inside the inner world and asked Ouyang Zhen to leave first, stating that he would choose to leave after the issue was resolved.

Upon hearing that they were to face a Fire Demon Beast, Ouyang Zhen was shocked.

You must know, that is a Fire Demon Beast, not any ordinary Demon Beast.

It is spoken to every individual pursuing Cultivation from a young age, as being on par with the Five Great Holy Beasts.

“There is no need to worry.

You go back first.”

Long Yan softly consoled Ouyang Zhen, then prepared to have Bai Mu take him back inside the inner world, that Formation still needed a few things before it could be set up, and in terms of Formations, Long Yan really had no clue.

“Wait, Brother Long.”

Just as Long Yan had stepped into the Teleportation Array, the voice of Ouyang Zhen behind him came through, sending a shiver through Long Yan’s body, for excitement drenched Ouyang Zhen’s face in sweat.

“I will go with you.”

“But…”

Long Yan hesitated, for in truth, the help that Ouyang Zhen could provide during an actual battle was minimal, even negligible.

So in his view, there really was no need for Ouyang Zhen to wade into these muddy waters.

But Ouyang Zhen interrupted him directly.

Long Yan once said that one cannot become a true Strong One by backing down from everything.

At least for this battle, Ouyang Zhen did not want to back down.

Seeing the resolution in Ouyang Zhen’s eyes, Long Yan simply smiled lightly, understanding Ouyang Zhen’s intention.

“If you really want to come, then follow along.”

Having said that, Long Yan was the first to enter inside the Space.

He certainly wasn’t sure about this fight, but with the power of so many people, they might not necessarily lose.

“Report to the City Lord, there’s someone asking for an audience.”

Not long after the three returned, a Demon Soldier walked in and knelt before Bai Mu.

However, from his expression, it seemed he was unsure of how to address the three people outside.

“Let them in.”

Bai Mu waved his hand gently and said.

It seemed that the Demon Kings of previous generations had arrived, having unified their opinions.

The first to come in was Xiao Tian from that day, now wearing a smile on his face.

The countenance that was once the epitome of an Immortal now bore the sycophantic smile seen among the common marketplace, ignoring Bai Mu and walking straight to Long Yan.

“It seems, young friend Long Yan, this time we are to fight side by side.”

Xiao Tian was also very helpless.

He had been a Demon King himself, and now to grovel before a Human Cultivator in such a manner was intolerable for him.

Yet now these so-called Demon Kings had no other choice but to rely on Long Yan to deal with the powerful Fire Demon Beast.

Although they were reluctant, it was a situation without alternative.

Long Yan has never been fond of such flattery, but as it is the period of cooperation between both sides, it was not right to sour the relationship, and so he could only step forward to greet Xiao Tian.

“What is this?”

Looking at the Formation spread across the table, Xiao Tian’s eyes lit up.

Years of insight allowed him to perceive the exceptional nature of the Formation, and if such a powerful Formation could be used, a battle may indeed be possible.

A look of surprise appeared on Xiao Tian’s face.

He did not expect Long Yan to also have such a treasure in possession.

Of course, this was deliberate by Long Yan, as displaying one’s strength appropriately is beneficial for the morale of the whole team.

Of course, Long Yan’s proficiency in Formations was almost non-existent, so setting up such a Great Formation, Ouyang Zhen was indeed the main force.

As for Ouyang Zhen, although this Formation was a bit esoteric, it was not beyond his capability to set up.

What he needed was time.
