Chapter 345 - The Underhand
"Are you sure that Long Chen is really dead?" Han Tianfeng suddenly asked.
"I’m sure. We personally saw him being buried in the ancient tomb. We can’t be wrong. We have to say that this guy is simply as strong as a monster.
He’s obviously just broken through to the Tendon Transformation stage, not even reaching the first level of the Tendon Transformation stage, yet he’s actually able to fight against the three of us together.
If it wasn’t for that evil idiot, the two of us might have even been killed by him. Even now, when he thought about it, he still felt a bit scared … … Thinking back to his battle with Long Chen, Zhao Mingshan still felt some lingering fear.
When Long Chen finally exploded his full strength, they could clearly feel the fear that came from the depths of their souls.
They were all Chosen level experts and possessed extraordinary spiritual senses. At that time, Long Chen was simply too frightening. He had formed an absolute suppression on them. In other words, he could crush them.
This was something that they could never even dream of. Thus, when they thought of Long Chen as a fat sheep, they broke out in a cold sweat for themselves.
"What a pity!"
Han Tianfeng sighed, "A while ago, I received a secret message and was prepared to personally experience this Long Chen. What a pity!"
“Brother Tianfeng, you’re actually going to personally meet him. Aren’t you making a big fuss over nothing?” Zhao Mingshan and Li Jun asked in confusion.
Although they had never seen Han Tianfeng make a move before, the rumors had that Han Tianfeng’s battle prowess was second only to his older brother Han Tianyu’s. He was unimaginably powerful.
Even though they were both called Chosens, Zhao Mingshan and Zhang Xiuniang knew that in terms of strength, they were not even fit to carry shoes with other people. Otherwise, they would not have fawned over him like this.
“You might not know this, but I’ve received reliable information that the number one evil expert, Yin Luo, has snuck out into the vicinity of the gathering place in the side monastery to chase after Long Chen!” Han Tianfeng said.
"What?"
"How is this possible?"
Zhao Mingshan and Zhang Yang were both shocked. They were in disbelief. The number one expert of the evil way had risked going deep into the heart of the righteous path to hunt down Long Chen.
“The news is absolutely true. When I heard you say that Long Chen died in the tomb, I just didn’t dare to believe it. That’s why I asked you again!”
Han Tianfeng continued, “At that time, Long Tianfeng said:” Long Chen was just a rookie in the Blood Solidification Realm. To think that he had the ability to escape from Yin Luo’s grasp, that was truly shocking.
"And when you met him, he had already broken through to the Tendon Transformation stage, so the three of you were unable to defeat him. I was not surprised at all, he was the only one buried in the cave. I could not believe it!"
At this moment, Zhao Mingshan and the Chosen felt sweat dripping down their backs. They actually managed to retrieve their lives from the hands of a death god.
Who was Yin Luo? He was known as the number one expert of the evil way, a rare genius once in a thousand years. In the same generation as chosen, no one could take ten moves from him, and defeat countless masters.
However, the fact that such a person personally went to chase after Long Chen was simply beyond their imagination. The two of them looked at each other and saw the fear in each other’s heart, "Could it be that the legend is true? Long Chen really cut off one of Yin Luo’s thighs? "
Han Tianfeng nodded his head and said, "It should be true. However, the one who is truly fighting Yin Luo is an exceptional genius from another continent. Long Chen only got lucky …"
They had heard of the rumors of Long Chen on the battlefield, but when they heard this news, they nearly died from laughter.
For a newbie in the Blood Solidification Realm to defeat an expert as famous as Yin Luo was a huge joke. Not to mention cutting someone’s thigh, even an idiot would find it hard to believe such a joke.
But now, all the signs indicated that Long Chen had really done such a grand thing. Even if Long Chen was going to take advantage of him, he would still have the courage and strength to do so.
"This guy is indeed terrifying. However, the two of us can swear to the heavens that we saw him buried in the tomb with our own eyes!"
Zhao Mingshan was afraid that Han Tianfeng would not believe him, so he simply told him in detail what happened that day. In the end, he could not help but sigh, "The two of us were extremely unlucky.
“In the end, he killed that evil expert. Not to mention his spatial ring, he didn’t even get his head. That makes him full of fire …”
"What a pity. That golden paper and that forging platform are definitely treasures. Perhaps they recorded some kind of inheritance …" Han Tianfeng also said with a regretful expression.
"Long Chen can be considered to have died because of his luck. Otherwise, I would have personally let him taste the taste of a miserable defeat and would have to die at the hands of my big brother …" Han Tianfeng coldly said.
“That’s right, tell your subordinates to keep their mouths shut. Don’t tell anyone that Long Chen died in your hands.” Han Tianfeng reminded.
"Why is that? “We’re not afraid of the 108th monastery holding a grudge. For this matter, we’ve long been holding back our anger. If we don’t get them to vent this anger, then we’re too useless …” Zhao Mingshan was somewhat puzzled.
No one would think of Long Chen’s previous’ evil deeds’ that he had committed. Moreover, everyone deserved to be killed, and the one hundred and eighth monastery was completely helpless against them. If they were to open their mouths, that would be courting humiliation, and that was what they wanted to see the most.
In the distance, Long Chen was’ watching ‘their every move. A cold sneer appeared on his face.’ Your father is already ‘dead’, yet I still have to continue scheming against you. Good, very good, very good.
“Ai, for people as exquisite and transparent as you guys, how could you possibly have times when you’ve committed such a foolish act?” Han Tianfeng said in an exasperated manner.
"I was the one in charge of the plan for Long Chen. However, the entire plan was orchestrated by Senior Sister Yan Wushuang."
According to her original plan, she would have Long Chen die here. But then, she changed her mind.
I want Long Chen to live on, to be tainted with a bad reputation, and to die at the hands of my elder brother. I want my elder brother to become the incarnation of justice.
If you kill Long Chen, what you’re afraid of is not the 108th monastery. They are nothing in the eyes of the First monastery.
However, by doing this, all of Senior Yan Wushuang’s plans were foiled. You all know what women are thinking. When you’re narrow-minded, you can pick out bones from eggs.
You all know her background, right? Even our first branch family can’t afford to offend her, so even the branch family values her family greatly and isn’t willing to provoke her easily.
If this matter were to spread to her ears, it would definitely make her unhappy. If she were to get angry, even the Sect Leader might not be willing to interfere.
Although it’s not enough to do anything to you guys, but it’s definitely not good for your future development. In this world, only my brother can control her, but even as your brother, I can’t guess whether he’s willing to speak up for you.
"Thus, if I did not meet the two of you, I would not bother to remind you. This would be equivalent to offending Senior Yan Wushuang."
Long Chen had heard it clearly from the shadows. Although he had vaguely guessed that something was amiss, he hadn’t expected that this group of idiots would dare to openly take revenge on him.
No wonder he felt that his plan was so meticulous. Just as he entered the secret realm, there was already someone targeting him. This was no coincidence at all.
Even if Long Chen hadn’t met the girl from before, he’d still have other traps waiting for him. This was all part of his plan.
Long Chen had initially suspected that the thirty-sixth monastery wasn’t that strong, but he had always felt that it was likely that the thirty-sixth monastery didn’t have that kind of strength and would have the support of the first monastery.
However, upon hearing Han Tianfeng’s words, Long Chen finally understood that it was not the First monastery supporting him, but rather the three of them who were preparing to stab him to death.
The most hateful thing was that slut called Yan Wushuang actually wanted to nurture him well enough to become the stepping stone of Han Tianyu’s glorious image. She wanted to use his death to blossom in his glory; this woman was simply too vicious.
“Thank you, Tian Feng, for your reminder. We can’t thank you enough.” Zhao Mingshan and Wang Chao hurriedly bowed and said.
If it weren’t for Han Tianfeng’s reminder, they really would have been kept in the dark. Offending Yan Wushuang, no one would dare speak up for them in the First monastery. Then, not only would all their hard work have been in vain, they would also be nervously waiting for a woman’s revenge.
“However, you all need not be afraid. Although my current strength is a little weaker than my brother’s, that is only because I am one year younger than him …” Han Tianfeng said. However, there was a trace of unwillingness within his voice.
Why didn’t Zhao Mingshan understand what Han Tianfeng meant? This was clearly asking the two of them to show their loyalty. It was clear that he wanted to be on par with his brother in the future.
Since ancient times, there had never been a person with the highest rank, not even brothers could do it. No one wanted to live under the shadow of others forever.
“Brother Tianfeng, don’t worry. We vow to follow you until our deaths. If we break this oath, our bodies will be shattered into pieces. We will die a horrible death!” The two of them swore without any hesitation.
To them, as long as they were able to hug the legs of the First monastery, it was fine. Regardless of who they were in charge of, they would not lose out by following Han Tianfeng. It was simply a heavenly good thing.
Han Tianfeng felt joy in his heart upon seeing the two of them swear. He smiled and said, "Alright, in the future, all of your matters will be related to my Han Tianfeng. If you have any difficulties, feel free to speak!"
Han Tianfeng had long since started to secretly cultivate his own forces. He didn’t want to keep hearing about the title of number one genius, Han Tianyu’s little brother. He wanted others to see him as someone else.
Now that he had the support of two more Chosen powerhouses, he was filled with confidence and sneered: "My brother, this person is great in everything. It’s just that he is too conceited with his appearance and thinks that all the women in the world should prostrate themselves in front of him to curry his favor.
Hmph, when he saw the two girls that had appeared together with Long Chen the other day, although he appeared to be calm and collected, the greed and jealousy in the depths of his eyes couldn’t be concealed from me.
This time, I’m going to snatch those two girls away and make them my private pets. Hehe, consider this my first time sending a signal to this brother of mine. "
“Then I have to congratulate you. With Brother Tianfeng’s looks and talent, wouldn’t those two bitches be easy to capture? As long as Brother Tianfeng says it, don’t cry and shout and throw yourself into my arms?” “Hahaha!” Zhao Mingshan and Li Jun hurriedly said in flattery.
"Creak!"
In the distance, Long Chen clenched his fists tightly. His eyes were filled with killing intent. This group of bastards truly did not know how to write the word ‘death’.
"Who is it?"
Han Tianfeng suddenly let out a cold cry as he looked in a particular direction.
