Dragon-Blooded War God

“Lady Xuan, you don’t need to do anything. I can deal with these pieces of trash on my own; I only invited you just in case. Thank you for giving me face today. I will perform well. If not, how will I win over a beautiful lady’s heart?” said Zhao Danchen with a faint smile.

His blatant flirtation made Feng Xuan giggle.

“Alright, perform well, then. If you perform well, I may be yours tonight,” Lady Xuan said sweetly.

Her feminine voice made the Martial Kings and Martial Saints behind Zhao Danchen gulp.

Fuck! I wouldn’t dare bed a crazy bitch like you! Who knows if you’ll throw me a punch while we’re in bed? Zhao Danchen cursed her in his heart.

However, he knew that as long as this lady remained in the Divine Martial Empire, he had no choice but to maintain a good relationship with her. To a person like him, she was very strong. Even at his current level, he felt helpless in front of Feng Xuan.

With Feng Xuan here, the members of the Dragon clan were probably feeling hopeless before the battle even began.

This was what Zhao Danchen smugly thought to himself.

This was the effect he wanted to create.

Standing opposite him were Long Shan, Long Yue, and the others. All of them had somber expressions as they faced the large army, along with the notorious Feng Xuan.

Long Shan sighed, then he took a step forward.

“Grandfather!” Long Yue said in panic.“You were injured again during the previous battle with Feng Xuan. You can’t do this now …”

Long Shan shook his head and said, “If I don’t do it, who will? Yue’er, if you’re willing to listen to me, take everyone and flee while we fight.”

Long Yue was on the brink of tears as she cried, “Grandfather, that bastard Zhao Danchen even called Feng Xuan over here. Isn’t that exactly because he’s afraid we’ll run while you and him fight? If not, his Martial Saints and Martial Kings wouldn’t be able to stop us. If we escape, everyone from the Martial Alliance will die off except him. But with Feng Xuan here, not a single one of us can run!”

Everyone knew why Zhao Danchen had called Feng Xuan here.

Even if Feng Xuan only stood there without doing anything, the pressure of her presence was enormous.

There was another major reason why Zhao Danchen had come to the Battle clan. He knew that the Yellow Emperor Seal, one of the Five Emperor Seals, was with the Battle clan. He already had two, and now he wanted to take the Yellow Emperor Seal and destroy them at the same time.

“What else can I do, other than fight?” Long Shan said bitterly.

Ever since he emerged from the Nine Spirit Purgatory, he thought he would be able to help his descendants. However, he never expected so many powerful masters to appear right after he arrived.

First, it was the Ancient Demon Corpse, then Feng Xuan. Long Shan had not even recovered, but he had squeezed himself dry to fight two more battles. By this point, he was almost at the end of the road.

“Grandfather …”

“Senior Long …”

Looking at the weathered old man, Long Yue, Lei Zhen, Jian Chen, and the others had bitter expressions too.

“Children, are you underestimating me?” Long Shan suddenly squeezed out a smile. “Don’t worry, I’m not weak. Even if I die, I will be sure to kill Zhao Danchen. As long as Zhao Danchen dies, Feng Xuan will be too lazy to trouble you. Even if she does, she is one person. If you run in separate directions, will she be able to find all of you?”

What Long Shan said seemed to be their only chance.

Feng Xuan and Zhao Danchen did not have much of a relationship to start with. They merely did not have a conflict of interest, therefore leading to a temporary allyship.

This meant that Long Shan was ready to fight for his life.

To Zhao Danchen, as long as they defeated the old man, everything else would fall apart.

“Let’s fight, then! Since we are going to die, then we shall fight to the end! It doesn’t matter if we’re the Dragon clan or the Battle clan; is there even a single coward among us?” roared the tall and muscular Lei Zhen with all his might.

After they heard him, endless battle spirit was ignited within them.

It did not matter if the enemy was strong. They would fight for their lives! Who was afraid of who now?

Since they wanted to fight, they would fight!

When Long Shan saw the battle spirit in their eyes, he smiled proudly.

“I was able to survive under those harsh conditions and managed to feel like a person again. I am already content enough with seeing all of them …” muttered the old man. Then he looked at Zhao Danchen with killing intent in his eyes.

First, it was Chen Xiong, then Zhao Wuji, and now Zhao Danchen. Indeed, every Martial Overlord is fated to be a major enemy of the Long family. The Long ancestors have allowed me a chance to live again; it is because they wanted me to help our descendants clear the obstacles in their path!

With that thought, the old man’s chest was filled with pride and emotion. Life was no longer the most important thing—the most important thing now was duty. Therefore, he strode proudly to the center. His thin body was like a steel lance standing straight between heaven and earth. The intimidating aura and fierce glare startled many of the Martial Kings and Martial Saints of the Martial Alliance. At this moment, Long Shan was shining very brightly, as if he was a war god who had descended to the mortal realm!

At this moment, it was as if he had become younger by decades, returning to his prime days!

Time did not forgive anyone. Everyone was once young.

But why did this old man look so terrifying?

Even Zhao Danchen squinted.

“Hmph! It doesn’t matter how you act. You’re still going to be beaten up by my Ancient Demon Corpse until no trace of you remains!” Zhao Danchen snickered, then he took two steps forward, breaking free from the crowd to stand proudly in front of Long Shan.

One young and arrogant, one old and fierce. Who would get the last laugh?

Zhao Danchen laughed again and waved the Ancient Demon Flag. The ground shook immediately, and the Ancient Demon Corpse, which had shrunk down to the size of a normal human, crawled out of the ground. It stood next to Zhao Danchen with a hunched back. Its pitch-black skin was rough like crocodile skin and was full of pockmarks. It radiated killing intent as well as a pungent, rotting stench.

The people on the Dragon clan’s side were privately startled by its menacing look. It was clear that Zhao Danchen had completely mastered controlling the Ancient Demon Corpse. No one had expected the most valuable treasure of the Ancient Demon Domain to end up in his hands, becoming his most powerful trump card!

Zhao Danchen twisted the Martial Overlord Ring on his thumb and smiled. “Ancient Demon, help me flatten the Battle clan today!”

As he spoke, he waved the Ancient Demon Flag, and a flow of mysterious energy flowed into the Ancient Demon Corpse’s body. Its eyes turned blood-red and it instantly pounced at Long Shan like a wild beast, turning into a shadow!

Long Shan was in terrible physical condition. After three heavy blows, his body was on the brink of breaking down. However, he would fight till the end, as he had to protect his descendants. That was why the old man not only refused to back down, his killing intent rose to its peak!

Looking at the fast-approaching Ancient Demon Corpse, Long Shan’s gaze darkened. He activated all the strength in his body to leap toward it!

When the Ancient Demon Corpse attacked, it did not attempt to dodge or defend itself at all. All it knew was to attack. Long Shan was locked in a vigorous battle, fighting in a similar style. He had put all thoughts of death out of his mind. The only thing on his mind was to kill Zhao Danchen!

As long as Zhao Danchen was dead, everything would be solved!

Even a frail camel was larger than a horse. Although Long Shan did not have as much essence as he used to, he still had the comprehension of a Fifth Earthly Martial Stage master. When he fought the Ancient Demon Corpse, although he did not have enough strength, his techniques far surpassed the Ancient Demon Corpse. The demon and human were tightly engaged in the battle, and when one of their attacks hit the ground, it was enough to shake the hills!

“Soul Dispersing Dragon Claw, Five Piercing Dragons!” Five dragon projections baring their teeth twisted around the Ancient Demon Corpse, leaving five blood-red slashes on its body. However, it did not bleed, and only dark-red flesh was exposed from the wounds. The flesh wriggled quickly and started regrouping. Soon, it would heal completely.

Wounds like that did not affect the Ancient Demon Corpse at all. Instead, it took this opportunity to swing its claw at Long Shan’s head, as if it did not care for its own life! It excelled in physical strength, so this was a fast and terrifying strike. If Long Shan was hit, his whole head would fly off!

“Haargh!” At this critical moment, Long Shan guided his essence to both his arms to block the strike!

Slam! The collision sent him flying to the left. The strike had left his arms feeling numb, almost losing all sensation. However, to everyone’s shock, he did not stop even for a second. In the next moment, he roared again and charged at the Ancient Demon Corpse!

“This old man doesn’t fear death at all!” The corners of Zhao Danchen’s mouth curled up into a cold sneer. He slowly waved the Ancient Demon Flag, using it to control the Ancient Demon Corpse’s powerful attacks. He did not care at all when Long Shan’s attack struck the Ancient Demon Corpse!

Everyone was on edge of their seats, watching the two masters battle it out.

“Eldest Sister, Senior Long doesn’t look like he can hold on much longer. What should we do?” Lei Zhen, the Battle clan’s leader, asked Long Yue resignedly.

“I don’t know either. We’re in a very precarious situation. Our enemies are powerful; my grandfather is the only one who can hold them off. If only Seventh Brother was here, we might have stood a chance …”
