Dragon Blooded War God

The fighting between the two men was vigorous. They mostly ignored their opponents’ attacks and tried to kill the other person by risking their lives. If this continued, both of them would die at the same time. Du Jiu and the others were coincidentally present to take advantage of this.

Du Jiu turned around and said to Long Chen with a smile, “Little Brother Long Chen, both of these people are already on the brink of death. You haven’t shown us your capabilities yet ever since you joined us; I’ll leave them to you!”

There was a deep chill hidden in his smile.

Both of the men were at the Fifth Earthly Martial Stage. Du Jiu could have easily killed them off, but he had asked Long Chen to do it instead. He was clearly trying to figure out how strong Long Chen was.

“They’re focused on each other. We can just go and take the treasure after they’re done. Why would we need Brother Long Chen to go?” asked Shao Yu, puzzled.

He did not know that Du Jiu was targeting Long Chen. The fat man was a little dumb; if he was smarter, he would not have joined this team.

Du Jiu’s squad did not even blink when they killed, but Shao Yu was kind at heart. How could he ever mix with them?

“Fat Yu, if those two slip away, you will be responsible!” Many of the cultivators next to Du Jiu glared at Shao Yu, forcing him to swallow his words.

Long Chen smiled without a word and went directly to the two fighting men. They were fighting so intensely that they did not care about their own lives. When Long Chen went up to them, clearly wanting to take advantage of the situation, both of them would likely hate him equally! Both men quickly separated and glared at Long Chen venomously.

“Brat, we’re trying to kill here. Why did you come here? Are you looking to die?”

“If you take one more step forward, we will kill you first!” said the other cooperatively.

Although they hated each other’s guts, they would never let someone else take away a piece of treasure that had caused their brothers’ deaths! If Long Chen stepped closer, they would work together without question!

Long Chen continued walking forward, ignoring their warnings. Then he suddenly accelerated and arrived in front of them!

“Desolate Divine Seal!”

He launched the Desolate Divine Seal at them. He did not use his Dragon Soul Transformation, so his essence was at the Fourth Earthly Martial Stage. However, because both of them were severely injured and the Desolate Divine Seal was an advanced King-tier combat technique, he managed to suppress them!

The palm filled with deathly Qi flew towards them. A cloud of gray mist completely wrapped around both of them!

“You’re looking for death!” When Long Chen attacked, they scrambled to retaliate. They had let their guards down because Long Chen was only at the Fourth Earthly Martial Stage. They had not expected Long Chen to launch such a powerful attack so quickly!

The mighty Desolate Divine Seal boosted by the Golden Crow Flame’s power spread towards the both of them. The Golden Crow Flame was a huge boost to Long Chen’s abilities, which increased together with his cultivation level. When its burning heat mixed with the Desolate Divine Seal’s deathly Qi, the resulting combat ability was shocking!

Whoosh!

Gray mist washed over the two men. When Du Jiu and the others finally saw what had happened, Long Chen was already behind them and there was a gray palm on both their chests. The gray Qi spread in all directions until it covered their whole bodies. Very quickly, they died.

It was a quick and direct kill, also considered a form of mercy from Long Chen to them. One had to have an understanding of death in the Ancient Graveyard. The strongest ate the weakest—that was the law of the world!

After Long Chen killed both of them, Du Jiu and the others were in a daze. They had not expected Long Chen to resolve this so cleanly. Du Jiu initially wanted to figure out Long Chen’s abilities by waiting for him to reveal his trump card. If Long Chen ended up being weaker than him, he would immediately kill Long Chen. However, Long Chen still remained a mystery.

Du Jiu, who was itching to make a move, forcefully suppressed his desire to kill. The other people also reined in their imaginations. They knew that if it were them, they would not have killed those two men that quickly.

However, after Long Chen killed them, the group quickly followed Du Jiu and instantly arrived next to the two dead men. Du Jiu was the fastest. Right after Long Chen killed them, they ripped out their Universe Pouches. Du Jiu pulled out a sharp ax from one!

Long Chen focused his gaze and saw that it was a metal ax. It was black all over with dark-blue light flowing on its surface. It was shiny and had a subtle but powerful energy ripple. It was a divine weapon at least of the intermediate King-tier. It may even have been an advanced King-tier.

“How unlucky. It’s an ax. Does any brother here use an ax?” one of the men blurted after seeing the glowing blue ax. It was unquestionably a good divine weapon, but unfortunately, it did not suit him.

Everyone was dejected.

“Uh … Elder Brothers, my ax was ruined when I was fighting the Iron Demonic Wolf. Would it be possible to give me that ax?” Shao Yu asked timidly, eyeing the Blue Light Battleaxe with a burning gaze.

When he finished speaking, Du Jiu had already put the Blue Light Battleaxe away. He looked at Shao Yu, then said expressionlessly, “This battleax looks like it is an advanced King-tier weapon. This is the first valuable item we retrieved since arriving in the Ancient Graveyard. Your cultivation level is not high enough for this battleax to be used at its full potential. I’ll keep it for now. I will only feel more assured giving it to you when you reach the Fifth Earthly Martial Stage.”

“Yeah, Brother Shao Yu. That is an excellent ax, and you’re not able to use it to its full potential. Might as well sell it in exchange for some King Crystals and spiritual medicine that will benefit everyone. You’ve contributed the least along this journey, so how could you take the best war spoil as your own?”

“He’s right. I will not agree to you having it.”

Everyone chimed in. Initially, Shao Yu was looking forward to having the ax, but he looked miserable by the time they finished. Although he was not very bright, he knew that they were bullying him.

It was such a good battleax; it would be a pity if it was exchanged for King Crystals. But Du Jiu had put it away and refused to let him use it. He was lacking a weapon too. Without his ax, his combat abilities had reduced greatly.

But Shao Yu did not dare fight back. Resigned, he shook his head and sighed.

Long Chen watched the whole conversation.

Then he walked up to Du Jiu, looked into his eyes, and said calmly, “Based on the rules, I should be the one who gets the battle ax. I am the one who has the right to decide who it goes to. But you made the decision to keep it on your own. What is the meaning of that?”

To Du Jiu, giving such a good weapon to Shao Yu was like placing a flower on a pile of cow dung. [1]

But he did not expect Long Chen to argue with him for the sake of trash like Shao Yu. Du Jiu had been targeting Long Chen all along anyway. He hadn’t attacked him yet because he could not figure out Long Chen’s capabilities. Now that Long Chen was directly arguing with him, being an ill-tempered person, his killing intent rose instantly.

They had a standoff, glaring at each other coldly. The others smirked coldly when they saw this, rubbing their fists. They stood behind Du Jiu and glared at Long Chen and Shao Yu with bloodlust in their eyes. Only Shao Yu stood behind Long Chen.

“Long Chen, forget about it. Boss Du Jiu is right. I’m not strong enough to use that battleax. If I lost it, I would just embarrass everyone. It’s fine, it’s fine …” Shao Yu hurriedly tugged at Long Chen’s arm in a panic. He could tell that Du Jiu and the others had killing intent. Long Chen was not strong enough to face them all on his own.

Long Chen gently pushed him away. He could not swallow this injustice, so he said, “Everyone is on the same team, so everyone should be treated equally. As the leader, you should prioritize the wellbeing of your brothers. You don’t even know this; how could you be the leader?”

“You want to be the leader? It’s very disrespectful of you to be like this after you only just joined us. Of course, you can be the leader. That depends on whether my brothers agree!” Du Jiu smirked coldly. The scar on his face moved along with his smile like a disgusting, wriggling worm.

“Is that a joke? If he becomes the leader, I’m chopping his head off!”

“He’s just some punk! Do you even know what a leader is? Hehe …”

Everyone burst into laughter.

Long Chen was unaffected. He squinted and said mildly, “I’m not wasting time on nonsense. I was the one who got the battleax. Hand it over and I will give this matter a rest. If you don’t’ …”

“Then you’ll kill me and take it for yourself?” Du Jiu smiled.

Although this brat was mysterious, he was too arrogant. There were ten-plus Fifth Earthly Martial Stage cultivators here, and Du Jiu was a Sixth Earthly Martial Stage master. What right did Long Chen have to speak like that?

In the beginning, Du Jiu thought Long Chen had a trump card, so he did not dare act recklessly in case it caused casualties. Now he saw that Long Chen was just a reckless young man.

After reaching the Fourth Earthly Martial Stage, Long Chen had a rough gauge of his own strength.

Long Chen would have killed them off if it wasn’t for the fact that Shao Yu would be alone if they died, which was an even stickier problem. But now, he saw that if he did not kill them, Shao Yu would die sooner or later while he followed them. In that case, Long Chen decided that he did not mind killing them right now.

The only complicated part was that he could not let Shao Yu follow him for the rest of his journey. His current solution was to first kill all these wolf-like men, then send Shao You to an Iron City.

When he was about to attack, the metal ground started shaking and he sensed something terrifying!

“Natural Disaster!” someone yelled.
