Dragon-Blooded War God

“What’s that?” Long Chen hurriedly shut his True Martial Soul off. If he didn’t, the pressure he experienced would be too immense. After he shut it, the Golden Thunder Beast disappeared, and everything returned to calm. Everyone was still quietly studying the Underworld Qi’s cultivation method.

There was a tiny Golden Thunder Beast in the Underworld Rock.

Although it was small, it contained vast amounts of energy, and it had an aura that showed it could rule over the lands.

“I think it’s a type of magical thunder. A kind with sentience,” Little Cat suddenly said.

“How so?” Long Chen asked.

“Between the heavens and earth, there are magical versions of the elements such as metal, wood, water, fire, earth, and thunder. For example, Xiaolang previously swallowed a type of fire, but that was no ordinary fire. The Golden Thunder Beast is the same. It’s probably a very high-level Hell Soul Lightning. However, it formed sentience. Magical elements that develop sentience but are unable to use it can become quite terrifying, just like the Golden Thunder Beast. If it were released when it was still in its peak state, all of Underworld City would be flattened. After being suppressed for countless years, I think its powers have been almost exhausted. If you approach the Underworld Rock, I have a way for you to tame it so that it will do your bidding.”

“Hell Soul Lightning? Golden Thunder Beast? Do my bidding?” Long Chen’s eyes widened. Based on what Little Cat had said, this beast was quite powerful.

“With my abilities, catching a Thunder Beast is easy. However, you must first approach the Underworld Rock. Also, I don’t know if it’ll cause a huge commotion”

“This is the Underworld Army’s territory. That makes it very inconvenient.”

It was daytime, so any phenomenon would be very obvious. There would likely be fewer people present at night, and that would be a good opportunity. Many people who cultivated Underworld Qi did not come here every day, and they did not stay for the whole day when they did. They had other things to do after all. Very few people were like Long Chen and Ye Xuan, who cultivated here for several days in a row.

“Brother Chen, why have you stopped?” Next to him, Ye Xuan opened his eyes and forced a smile.

“Just catching my breath. I’ll continue very soon. It looks like I’m going to be faster than you,” Long Chen replied with a smile.

He had cultivated Underworld Qi in just over ten days. If this got out, it would be huge news in the whole Underworld Estate. Long Chen did not want to be the center of attention, and he knew he had to keep his head down before he became strong.

Therefore, he continued sitting there, waiting for nighttime to arrive.

“Little Cat, if I could get the Golden Thunder Beast, in what way will my abilities improve?” This was what he was most concerned about.

“The Golden Thunder Beast is also called the Hell Soul Lightning. Based on the cultivation level system, it should be considered an advanced Divine-tier treasure. Furthermore, it has gained sentience, so that will boost its strength by another level. Unfortunately, it has been suppressed for a very long time, so most of its strength has been exhausted. Only a little is left.”

“What can this remaining strength do for me?”

“If you can tame it, and it has enough strength, you can let it out to bite people. Plus, you can toughen up your body if you use its lightning power to condition your body. Your speed will improve greatly as well. It is named ‘Hell Soul Lightning’ because its greatest strength is actually its speed. Lightning has always been the symbol for speed. With the Hell Soul Lightning residing in your body, your speed will surpass that of a regular person. As for how much, you’ll have to test it out yourself.”

These two benefits would help Long Chen greatly.

Therefore, Long Chen decided that he had to obtain the Golden Thunder Beast.

But not right now.

He was waiting for night to fall.

Two men entered the Underworld Plaza, and their gazes swept across the crowd for a while, then they quickly spotted Long Chen. These two were Butcher and another man. Butcher had an aggrieved and venomous expression, making him look pathetic. The man next to him was handsome, strong, and tall and had the look of a talented man.

When the two of them saw Long Chen, they walked over to him.

Before they approached, Long Chen sensed their presence.

“Long Chen!” someone called out.

Long Chen stood up and turned around. He was not afraid of Butcher, but the other man’s aura was immense—he was likely at the Ninth Heavenly Martial Stage. This made him a Hundred-Sergeant in the Underworld Army.

This person was on the same level as the six demons from before.

“You’re Long Chen?” the man asked coldly, eyeing Long Chen for a while.

“May I ask who you are?” Long Chen looked up at him.

“Hehe. You’re asking who he is? This is the Hundred-Sergeant who manages all of us, Lord Huang Qiong, Ninth Heavenly Martial Stage!” Butcher said coldly with his eyes fixed on Long Chen.

Long Chen glanced at him and then said, “Greetings, Hundred-Sergeant. You must be here because I injured Butcher, right? Don’t the rules state that every soldier has the right to challenge a Sergeant? And that he will automatically become a Sergeant after defeating one? Did I do something wrong?”

What Long Chen had done was within the rules.

Huang Qiong felt disrespected when Long Chen did not seem afraid of him at all. He said coldly, “What you did was indeed within the rules, but after he was defeated, you still pressed further and tried to kill him. You even cut off his …”

Oh, so that’s why they’re here.

“What did I cut off?” Long Chen asked, pretending to be nonchalant.

“You cut off my knob!” Butcher cried out furiously when he saw that Long Chen was refusing to admit it.

That was the punchline.

The people around them were initially immersed in cultivation, but they were startled by this sentence. They all looked at the stout Butcher with strange expressions, then burst into loud laughter.

Even Ye Xuan woke up.

Butcher wanted to hide in a hole, while Huang Qiong was so mad that his face turned red. He did not want to stay here any longer. He shot Long Chen a cold look and said, “Come with me.”

“And if I don’t?” said Long Chen.

“Insubordination is cause for the death penalty in the Underworld Army.” Huang Qiong shrugged and left with Butcher. If Long Chen did not obey him and follow, he had many ways to rightfully kill Long Chen.

While Butcher was an evil person, he was Huang Qiong’s confidante too. Every year, Butcher would give Huang Qiong many valuable items, and Huang Qiong would help solve his problems in return.

Long Chen and Ye Xuan looked at each other.

“Brother Chen, ignore him. I’ll speak to Qin Xiong later, and these minor figures won’t dare to touch you or harass you again.”

“I don’t need to trouble you. I’ll just go once. They can’t do anything to me.” Long Chen smiled and bade him farewell, then he went to Camp Wolf. He did not want to trouble Qin Xiong over such a small matter, so he went back directly. He only needed to return to the Underworld Plaza at night anyway.

Since Long Chen was insistent, Ye Xuan did not know how to respond.

When they saw Long Chen catching up to them, Butcher and Huang Qiong both smiled.

“This brat made me like this! If I can’t kill him, I at least want him to wish he was dead, or I won’t live up to my name—Butcher!”

“Don’t worry. He’s just some ignorant kid. He has no power, status, or background. I can kill him quietly anytime.”

“Don’t kill him. After you cripple him, pass him to me. He made me like this, so I must torture him for a few years so that he will regret being born!” A sneer appeared on Butcher’s face and he laughed.

But he laughed so hard that it aggravated his injuries, causing him to spasm in pain.

After a while, they finally reached Camp Wolf. Long Chen followed the Hundred-Sergeant to the courtyard where Long Chen’s room was, and the other eight soldiers were already standing nervously together. They had no idea that Butcher and Huang Qiong were this close. It was no wonder no one seemed to care about Butcher’s reckless behavior.

Long Chen followed them into the courtyard.

When they saw the moods of the two men, the group of soldiers quickly hid in the back, except for Jiang Chong, who stood in his spot hesitantly.

“Long Chen is done for. Butcher has a good relationship with Hundred-Sergeant. Now that Long Chen has been called back, the consequences will be unimaginable.”

“That brat dared to fight Butcher. I told you this wouldn’t end well. I was right.”

“Thankfully, we did not help him beat Butcher.”

The few of them muttered amongst themselves, doing their best to show that they had nothing to do with Long Chen.

Long Chen heard them.

“Useless trash.” Long Chen laughed to himself and ignored them. With their characters, they would not achieve anything in their lives. They had already peaked.

In the vast courtyard, Huang Qiong and Butcher turned around and looked at Long Chen. An icy aura erupted from Huang Qiong and pressed on Long Chen.

The Ninth Heavenly Martial Stage was the peak of the Heavenly Martial Realm, and also the peak of domain strength.

When he walked up to Huang Qiong, Long Chen looked up and asked, “I have followed you here. May I ask if you have any orders, Hundred-Sergeant?”

Huang Qiong laughed. It was rare to see someone so unafraid of dying. He said directly, “I won’t trouble you. If you can withstand one move from me and not die, I will forget about the mistakes you committed.”

Butcher panicked a little, but after he remembered how strong Huang Qiong was, he felt more assured. Although it was just one move, it would surely be enough to kill Long Chen.

“Go on, then.”

Long Chen made a “come hither” gesture with his hand.
