Chapter 241: I Believe in You
Zhang Chi's face was filled with compassion, making Yin Xun's face of resentment and unwillingness appear particularly ugly in comparison.
Moreover, Zhang Chi was already good-looking to begin with. Even in the Immortal Cultivation World, where beautiful men and women were common, Zhang Chi's face could be considered a masterpiece of Nuwa's craftsmanship.
Coupled with Zhang Chi's righteous and kind temperament, who wouldn't be captivated by him?
Is Zhang Chi feeling proud?
Of course, he was.
If there weren't so many people watching, he would have shown a smug expression.
I haven't even made a move yet, and you're already down?
Is this your level?
And when there are many people, there are naturally many ways to mock.
For example, now, instead of blaming Yin Xun for what he did to him, Zhang Chi's face was filled with compassion and sorrow, as if he were the Virgin Mary.
But would Yin Xun be moved?
He definitely wouldn't.
He was probably feeling more uncomfortable than if he had eaten a fly. Failure was already painful, but what was even more painful was the pity from the winner.
Zhang Chi was right. Yin Xun could have had a bright future, respected and powerful.
But now?
He had become a prisoner, despised and scorned by others.
These were all facts.
Everything was because of Zhang Chi, because of Long Yan.
Of course, Yin Xun wouldn't admit that it was his own fault. He would blame others.
But no matter how much he hated, it was useless. He was so resentful that he wished he could explode on the spot and kill this couple.
However, he had already been sealed off from his dantian and couldn't use any true essence. Self-destruction was impossible.
He could only look at Zhang Chi with venomous eyes and angrily say, "Do you think that by following this woman, you will have a good future in the future?
In fact, you are just their dog. When they need you, they will reward you with a piece of meat. When you are no longer useful, they will kick you away!"
Yin Xun laughed maniacally, his face twisted like a madman.
He knew that he had no way out at the moment of his death, so he didn't beg for mercy.
Since he was going to die anyway, he might as well curse them.
If he could sow discord and make Zhang Chi and Long Yan drift apart, that would be even better.
"The Long family is cold-hearted. My current situation will be your future. You won't be proud for long!
At most ten years, when that old man Long Yi dies, you will also have no way out!
He will definitely find a way to ruin your reputation. You can't outplay them!"
Yin Xun laughed wildly, his face contorted like a madman.
At the moment of his death, his mind became clear.
He suddenly understood why he had ended up like this.
Every step he took seemed to be his own plan, but in reality, it was Long Yi's step-by-step manipulation.
Long Yi deliberately tempted him to make mistakes, then killed him legitimately, solving both him and preserving the Long family's reputation.
Only he, who had worked hard for the Dragon Transformation Palace for many years, ended up with nothing, even being humiliated and insulted after death.
The Long family's plan was well-executed!
Since he couldn't kill Zhang Chi or Long Yan, he would make Zhang Chi live in perpetual fear.
He wanted to say more, but his face suddenly changed. He clutched his chest, his face filled with pain.
The gu worm had been activated and was devouring its host.
Before long, a bloody worm crawled out of Yin Xun's chest, and Yin Xun fell to the ground, motionless.
The onlookers' faces changed slightly, but they could only pretend not to see.
This melon couldn't be eaten recklessly.
However, they heard it all, and they couldn't erase the information that flooded their minds.
When they looked at Zhang Chi, their eyes also held a hint of sympathy.
What Yin Xun said could very well become reality. Anyone could see that Zhang Chi was intelligent, and Long Yan was extremely protective of him.
Having a loving relationship between husband and wife was a good thing in an ordinary family, but Long Yan would become the head of the Long family in the future.
She was still too naive, and Zhang Chi was too clever. It was possible that when Long Yi left to stabilize the Long family's position, he would take Zhang Chi with him.
"It's not like that... I won't harm you, nor will I let anyone harm you."
Long Yan was also worried that Zhang Chi would believe Yin Xun's words, her eyes filled with concern.
Was her newlywed husband going to be taken away?
She thought Yin Xun was really unreasonable. It was clearly his own misconduct, yet he insisted on blaming others.
Did her father tell him to kill Zhang Chi?
Did her father tell him to be a spy?
If Yin Xun hadn't died, she really wanted to go over and beat him up again.
This person was too despicable. Even in death, he wanted to provoke others.
Fortunately, Zhang Chi wasn't someone who could be easily swayed.
He smiled and nodded, saying, "I believe in you."
With just four simple words, Long Yan's smile returned.
She didn't care about what others thought. As long as Zhang Chi believed in her, that was enough.
"The farce is over. Let's continue discussing matters related to self-defense and counterattack!"
Miao Qin didn't want to get too involved in this matter. She stepped forward to guide everyone back to the meeting.
Including the spies, including Yin Xun, had all been eliminated. This matter could be considered closed.
Dealing with the Water Monster was the top priority.
The personnel from various forces planned to return and continue the meeting.
However, at this moment, beams of light flew over from above the Celestial Melody Pavilion.
"Hiss, are these people from the Dragon Transformation Palace?"
"What are so many people doing? Are they looking for the wrong place? Don't they know that the Dragon Miss is here?"
"..."
Listening to these discussions, Long Yan quickly looked up.
She used her spiritual power on her eyes and saw the appearance of those people clearly.
Indeed, they were from the Dragon Transformation Palace, and they were all wearing purple clothes.
They were the Purple Dragon Guards.
The Purple Dragon Guards were the direct guards of the Dragon family and could only be mobilized by Long Yi.
Where are they going?
Long Yan wanted to fly up and ask them where they were going, but the troops of the Purple Dragon Guards flew too fast and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Everyone looked at each other and finally turned to Long Yan.
"Dragon Palace Lord, does your sect have any actions?"
Long Yan also didn't know how to answer.
The Purple Dragon Guards obviously had something to do, but she didn't know what it was...
The leader, Huo Yun Perfected Being, held the Dragon-Slaying Sword and didn't hesitate at all.
After receiving the military order, he didn't leave immediately. Instead, he gathered manpower and made sufficient preparations before setting off.
This was a prepared battle, and all the formations, Law Weapons, and talismans needed were all ready.
This battle was only for revenge and to show their might.
When they flew over, they didn't notice a woman walking on the waves.
Huo Yun Perfected Being only brought a little over a hundred Purple Dragon Guards, and these hundred-plus Purple Dragon Guards were divided into more than ten small teams, each led by a cultivator at the Divine Ability level.
The team members were all at the Divine Soul realm. Although the number was small, the quality was extraordinary.
In addition, there was Huo Yun, a peak Divine Ability expert who possessed the supreme treasure of the Zhen Palace.
These hundred-plus people were heading out to kill in all directions.
They encountered no obstacles along the way and were not stopped by anyone because a war was about to break out. They flew a certain distance on their own and then used the Law Treasure of the Dragon Transformation Palace, the Cloud-Piercing Shuttle.
The Cloud-Piercing Shuttle was very fast, but its endurance was short and not enough to support its use for the entire journey.
So when they reached the territory of the Talisman Treasure Sect, they started using the Cloud-Piercing Shuttle. In less than half an hour, they had already arrived at the territory of the Profound Heart Sect.
Huo Yun Perfected Being put away the Cloud-Piercing Shuttle and looked at the Water Monster camp below. He directly drew out the Dragon-Slaying Sword.
"Kill!"
With a command, the Purple Dragon Guards launched a full-scale attack.
The scouts of the Water Monster Race did notice them, and now the Water Monsters hurriedly came out to meet the enemy.
But with a wave of his hand, the Fire Cloud Perfected Being released a fiery dragon phantom from the Dragon-Slaying Sword, which swooped down towards the ground, seemingly just a phantom, but wherever it went, anything tangible was ignited. The might of the fire dragon seemed capable of incinerating rivers and boiling seas.
While Hong Li and the other Monster Kings were still recovering from the damage caused by Ao Long, they were suddenly attacked again. Hong Li hadn't fully recovered yet and could only send out other Monster Kings to face the enemy.
As he saw these Monster Kings, a fierce killing intent flashed in the eyes of the Fire Cloud Perfected Being. He didn't know who caused the death of Hong Yan, but the most likely culprit was the Water Monster Race.
Regardless of whether it was true or not, he would kill first and ask questions later. The Water Monster Race had become too arrogant, crossing boundaries they shouldn't have crossed.
"The Wrath of the Flame Emperor!"
The Fire Cloud Perfected Being wielded the Dragon-Slaying Sword and directly displayed his own Divine Ability. The Dragon-Slaying Sword was not a divine weapon of the fire attribute, but a divine weapon that changed according to the attributes of its wielder. Whether it was gold, wood, water, fire, or earth, the Dragon-Slaying Sword could provide a great degree of enhancement.
Accompanied by the blooming of the Divine Ability flower, a fifty-zhang tall red giant appeared behind the Fire Cloud Perfected Being. The entire body of this giant was composed of flames, making it impossible to see its appearance, yet one could still feel its terrifying divine might.
After the giant appeared, the temperature in the air rose significantly. With the support of the Flame Giant, the Fire Cloud Perfected Being continued to wield his long sword.
The group of Monster Kings from the Water Monster camp had gained some experience in fighting against the human race during this period of time. However, they were completely unable to defend against the fire dragon unleashed by the Fire Cloud Perfected Being. Even the turtle, who was best at defense, was blasted away by the fire dragon and caught on fire.
The other members of the Purple Dragon Guard in the Divine Ability Realm did not join the Fire Cloud Perfected Being in fighting the Monster Kings. Their purpose was not to fight alongside the Fire Cloud, but to kill the Monster Race in the Earth Realm.
Dealing with the Monster Kings was the Fire Cloud Perfected Being's responsibility alone.
He was cautious, knowing that the Monster Race that could force Hong Yan to self-destruct was definitely not weak. However, he had the Dragon-Slaying Sword in his hand and had no fear.
So he unleashed his full firepower, intending to directly eliminate these Monster Kings.
The group of Water Monster Monster Kings never expected to be so easily defeated. When they attacked the Profound Heart Sect, they thought that the spring of the Water Monster Race had arrived, and they would restore the glory of the Water Monster Race in their generation. They even believed they had a chance to defeat the Dragon Transformation Palace.
However, the reversal came too quickly. The counterattack from the Dragon Transformation Palace far exceeded the imagination of the Water Monster Race.
Even Hong Li was already frightened. She saw her loyal subordinates being killed one after another, and she panicked.
"Retreat!"
With the Fire Cloud's attack, the situation was completely overwhelming. Hong Li wasn't a fool and realized that they couldn't match the enemy's strength. She immediately jumped into the water and without hesitation, used her remaining divine power to display the Free and Easy Traveling technique.
In her haste, she didn't even know which direction she had chosen, her Divine Soul had been exhausted too much.
But no matter which direction it was, as long as she was still in the water, she would be safe.
As for her subordinates, she couldn't care about them anymore.
She could only rely on her own luck and run as far as she could...
