Chapter 6087 A Show of Power
“Alright, then I’ll go rob them. Many thanks for your suggestion, City Lord!” Long Chen replied, smirking.
Long Chen turned and headed straight toward the Brahma Pill Valley and Soaring Dragon Company’s businesses.
What a joke. This was Bai Sovereign City—a city that charged a violet jade just for entry. Clearly, they were ripe for fleecing. Why wouldn’t Long Chen take a lion’s bite?
“Wait!” Bai Tianhua shouted, his expression twisted.
Nine Heaven Void Bright Silver was a rare material formed in the cracks between the Nine Heavens. It was one of the finest materials for crafting Sovereign weapons, but it was extremely difficult to find or refine.
This silver was used for carving weight runes onto divine materials. A tenth of a tael could increase a weapon’s weight by five thousand tonnes. It was so valuable that even seeing it sold was rare, and it was always by the tenth of a tael.
And Long Chen was demanding three thousand catties. He was clearly trying to make things hard on Bai Tianhua.
Bai Tianhua stiffly said, “Long Chen, why don’t we find a quiet place and discuss this?”
Long Chen shook his head. “My time is very precious. I don’t have the time to waste. City Lord, they were the ones who schemed against me first. You helped them, whether you knew it or not. It seems that in your heart, you’re more afraid of them. In that case, I won’t make things hard on you. I’ll give you face and only destroy their shops, not Bai Sovereign City as a whole.
“But make no mistake—I’m being forced to do this. If I don’t retaliate now, they’ll think I’m easy to bully, and this scheme will repeat in city after city. I, Long Chen, am not someone who turns the other cheek. I pay back an eye for an eye.
“So don’t test me, City Lord. If they can’t deliver three thousand catties of Nine Heaven Void Bright Silver within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, I will act. Anyone who dares stop me… will become my enemy.”
Long Chen’s expression turned cold toward the end. He was not willing to haggle.
Bai Tianhua also saw that there was no changing Long Chen’s mind. He had heard of Long Chen’s infamous tenacity—this was someone who dared to act on impulse without caring about consequences.
With nothing more to say, Bai Tianhua vanished.
Long Chen casually flicked an incense stick into the air. It flew across the sky, pierced the building’s protective array, and embedded itself on the roof. The stick ignited, its flame beginning to burn.
Everyone watching sucked in a breath of cold air. That was an ordinary incense stick, fragile enough to snap with a touch. Yet it broke through a defensive formation and landed gently without breaking. This level of control was hard for them to imagine.
Long Chen sat cross-legged in midair with his eyes closed, calmly waiting.
The entire city fell into a tense silence.
He was the legendary Long Chen—the terror of the ten thousand races, the self-proclaimed number one expert of the human race’s younger generation. Even the third Heavenstage Sovereign Lord Bai Tianhua hadn’t dared to attack him directly.
They couldn’t help feeling great reverence for him.
Now, it was clear to everyone that the imposters were just pawns in the Brahma Pill Valley’s scheme. They wanted to turn others against Long Chen. But the real Long Chen? He was someone to be feared.
Even his aura radiated the dominance of a true king. Countless people started recording the scene using photographic jades. They wanted to know—would Bai Tianhua yield, or would he resist?
Who would concede to who?
Long Chen had limitless potential and great backings. As the youngest dean in the history of the High Firmament Academy, supported by both Sovereign Mountain and the Heaven Dragon Law Domain, his status was extraordinary.
This confrontation wasn’t just about face—it was about which side Bai Tianhua would choose: Long Chen or the Brahma Pill Valley.
The entire city held its breath.
However, this was precisely what Long Chen wanted. The Brahma Pill Valley had cooked up a sinister scheme this time.
By praising and elevating Long Chen, they made countless geniuses envious. Even among the human race, some blockheads would see his fame as a challenge and come gunning for him.
If there was even one idiot in a group of a hundred, then given the sheer number of people in the human race, there would be so many fools rushing at Long Chen that he wouldn’t have the time to kill them all.
The best way to counter Brahma Pill Valley’s scheme was to blow this matter up—make it known to the entire world. Only by exposing their ploy could their game be dismantled.
Even if the effect was limited, it was still the best option Long Chen had.
As for those who were simply desperate to die, Long Chen would gladly use Evilmoon to fulfill their wish.
Time passed swiftly. The incense stick finally burned out, and ashes floated into the air.
Without a word, Long Chen stepped forward. In the blink of an eye, he appeared above a store lavishly adorned with jade and jewels. Raising Evilmoon high, he unleashed a slash brimming with killing intent.
“Waning Moon Heaven Shaking Slash!”
Long Chen roared inwardly. Countless stars lit up along Evilmoon’s blade as it cleaved downward like a river of stars.
Long Chen didn’t plan on giving them a single extra second, immediately unleashing a sharp blow. Startled cries rang out.
“Wait!”
Just then, Bai Tianhua’s voice echoed. With a flick of his hand, he conjured a spatial shield in front of Long Chen.
BOOM!
Long Chen was blasted back, but to everyone’s shock, fragments of shattered space flew through the air. Bai Tianhua’s shield had been destroyed.
Long Chen’s Blood Qi churned wildly. He looked coldly at Bai Tianhua—he had expected this. Bai Tianhua was clearly trying to teach him a lesson and reclaim some lost face with a show of power.
However, Long Chen also wanted to test his strength against a third Heavenstage Sovereign Lord. With this one exchange, both men were shocked.
Although Long Chen had not summoned his battle armor, he had mobilized the power of his starry sea. He had not held back, but Bai Tianhua had still stopped him.
At that moment, Long Chen thought of Yue Zifeng. Compared to Yue Zifeng’s destructive power, he still had a long way to go.
On the other hand, Bai Tianhua was shaken. He had expected to make Long Chen cough up blood with that move. Instead, Long Chen’s blow was so powerful it shattered his spatial shield.
Seeing the spatial fragments flying through the air, everyone was stunned. Long Chen was truly heaven-defying.
With a pained expression, Bai Tianhua clenched his teeth and tossed a spatial ring to Long Chen.
“This is what you wanted!” he spat.
Long Chen caught it and glanced inside, smiling.
As Long Chen’s gaze swept over the crowd, he announced, “The Brahma Pill Valley wants to use you to kill me. I trust that anyone with a working brain won’t fall for it. I say this not because I fear you, but because I want you to understand one thing—
I, Long Chen, can be your worst nightmare, or your greatest ally. Whether we are enemies or friends is entirely up to you. We have plenty of time. I’m sure we’ll meet again.”
With that, Long Chen activated the city’s transportation formation and vanished.
And the moment he left, news of this incident exploded across the nine heavens. Whether or not Long Can would die of rage upon hearing it—no one could say.
