Chapter 217: Heavenly Wolf Dagger
Long Chen pushed all thoughts about Dongfang Xuanxiao and Xuan Ming to the back of his mind when he thought he was about to meet Mo Xiaolang, but Ling Xi suddenly said that Mo Xiaolang was about to fight someone.
Long Chen was shocked.
There were very few people on the Azure Dragon Star at the mid Heavenly Core Realm. If someone had picked a fight with Mo Xiaolang, they would probably be at the late Heavenly Core Realm. Mo Xiaolang could barely move on the star and would easily become a victim!
Long Chen told Xuan Ming he was going to find Mo Xiaolang before running ahead. Since he had the Azure Dragon Halberd, he could move freely without being impeded by gravity. Xuan Ming could not catch up to him, but since they were close to where Mo Xiaolang was, she didnt get lost.
Long Chen soon came across two people. One of them was a disheveled man. His hair covered his eyes, but Long Chen saw the bloodthirsty look between the gaps of the hair. Every time that man attacked, he did it with the intention to kill.
His opponent was a young boy who looked to be around fourteen years old. His eyes were bright like the stars, his skin was milky white, and his body was skinny. It was the very same boy Long Chen had met in Baiyang Town.
Long Chen thought he was dreaming when he saw him. Mo Xiaolang was at the mid Heavenly Core Realm when he first came to Baiyang Town, while Long Chen was only at the Second Draconic Stage. Long Chen had closed the gap between them in just half a year. Mo Xiaolang would be surprised to learn that.
The gravity of the Azure Dragon Star was strong enough to severely hinder someone at the late Heavenly Core Realm. With the assistance of the Azure Dragon Halberd, Long Chen was confident that he could deal with a cultivator at the late Heavenly Core Realm to save Mo Xiaolang. However, Ling Xi stopped him before he could do anything. Long Chen, hes already at the late Heavenly Core Realm.
What? Long Chen almost choked on his saliva. Late Heavenly Core Realm? Isnt that the same cultivation level as Dongfang Xuanxiao? Dongfang Xuanxiao is one of the strongest in Yuanling County. Hes only fourteen, yet hes already made it that far? He even got the Heavenly Wolf Dagger
Long Chen felt defeated for the first time. He thought he had caught up, but the other person was already long gone.
Still, Long Chen was happy for him. Since Mo Xiaolang was at the late Heavenly Core Realm, his strength would flourish once more when he left the Azure Dragon Star. A true genius would never be smothered.
Since Mo Xiaolang was on the same level as his opponent, Long Chen decided to wait and observe the situation for now. He hid himself and watched them fight.
Both Mo Xiaolang and the man were fighting to the death. They said nothing while exchanging explosive blows. Long Chen thought he was watching a silent film.
After some time, Mo Xiaolang took out a dagger. Long Chen's eyes lit up when he saw it. The dagger resembled the fang of a beast, and its pommel was a silver wolf head with two black gemstones as the eyes. The gemstones were radiating power as strong as the Azure Dragon Halberd.
Is that the Heavenly Wolf Dagger? It looks strong. Long Chen silently admired the dagger while Xuan Ming arrived beside him. She was observing the fight too.
So you finally brought out the Heavenly Wolf Dagger. Its mine now! The mans eyes exploded with a red flash and then he charged towards Mo Xiaolang with his heightened aura.
Mo Xiaolangs demeanor became colder when he pulled out the dagger. The dagger flew around his hand before it disappeared. At the same time, he swung his right arm, and a silver wolf flew past the mans body. Not even a moment later, blood sprayed everywhere.
Pah!
The mans body fell to the ground.
Hes a prodigy, Xuan Ming whispered. The reason why she had kept tabs on Mo Xiaolangs location was because he was far too strong.
Long Chen stood up when he saw Mo Xiaolang killing the man. He felt excited.
They hadnt met for half a year, and now both of them were on the Azure Dragon Star with a gravity a thousand times stronger than normal. Their gazes met, and one put the dagger away while the other showed off the halberd.
Mo Xiaolangs eyes were wide with shock when he saw Long Chen. The Heavenly Wolf Dagger fell onto the ground and stabbed into the gray rock.
Long Chen? The man he had met only once by chance, the man that was similar to the brother he respected, the man he had not expected to meet in such extreme conditions, appeared once more in front of Mo Xiaolang.
You are right. I am Long Chen indeed. We met once in Baiyang Town. Long Chen smiled gleefully upon seeing Mo Xiaolangs look of disbelief. It was as if all his efforts from the past six months had paid off.
Impossible. I must be dreaming. Mo Xiaolang rubbed his eyes just to make sure Long Chen was real. He swallowed his saliva and said with difficulty, Then you must be imprisoned Wait, you have the Azure Dragon Halberd
Its a long story. Im here to save you. Time is running out, so we must leave now. We need to go to where the chains are, and you have to stay beside me so we can escape together. We need to escape the Azure Dragon Star and leave the Star Devil Prison. We can talk while we run!
Mo Xiaolang nodded, and the three of them instantly escaped. With Ling Xis strong sense, they ran towards the chains and avoided the other prisoners. If they ran out together with them, the commotion would be too big and they would attract the guards. Long Chen couldnt care less about them.
While escaping, Long Chen recounted everything that had happened since he departed from Baiyang Town and joined the Lingwu family. After the story was over, Mo Xiaolang was in disbelief. Still, he was very grateful to Long Chen.
Thank you, Long Chen.The reason I gave you the Constellation Body was because I saw that you were kind, which made me want to help you. But to think you would repay me like this. If you ever encounter any sort of difficulty, you need to tell me. I will run through a sea of fire to help you! Mo Xiaolang was not an expressive person, so even though he swore that he would help Long Chen, it sounded very plain.
But Long Chen knew Mo Xiaolang had a passionate heart. It was easy enough to discern when he saw Mo Xiaolangs eyes when he killed the other man.
Now that I call Yin Mengyao my sister, what should you call me? Long Chen teased the young Mo Xiaolang.
I might as well call you my brother. My older brothers name is Mo Xiaolong. Since your name is similar to his, and you saved me today, Im more than happy to call you my older brother.
Long Chen chuckled when he thought about having a genius of Mo Xiaolangs caliber calling him brother. Once Mo Xiaolang got stronger, he could even protect Long Chen. Still, it was embarrassing for the younger brother to protect the older brother.
Brother, you managed to rise up to your current level from the Second Draconic Stage in just half a year. You are five times faster than me, so you should be able to surpass me soon. If I call you my brother now, I will definitely benefit in the future. Mo Xiaolang smiled, revealing his white teeth. Mo Xiaolang was clearly a wolf, similar to Long Chen, but for some reason, his mannerisms and speech reminded others of a sheep.
Long Chen noticed Xuan Ming smiling at them.
What are you smiling at, Stepmother? Long Chen thought everyone could soon lead a happy life and feel good. He was very happy to be able to save everyone like this.
Xuan Ming was stunned when he called her stepmother. She then mumbled to herself, You little rascal I was jealous of the two of you
Im also jealous that someone will soon be able to meet their lover and live a happy life. Long Chen smiled.
Since my brother calls you Stepmother, I will do the same too. Mo Xiaolang smiled. His smile was much purer than Long Chens.
Xuan Ming smiled out of embarrassment for the first time in twenty years.
Can Can I ask you a question? Xuan Ming was worried about something.
What is it?
Do you think Do I look old? Xuan Ming touched her own face, feeling insecure. Twenty years ago, she was a beautiful girl that everyone swooned over. But she wasnt sure if she looked the same after she had been imprisoned for two decades. Would Xuanxiao still love her?
She felt insecure because she cared for Xuanxiao.
Long Chen and Mo Xiaolang exchanged glances before Long Chen responded, Im sure Stepfather will go unconscious when he sees how beautiful you are. Im very jealous that a beautiful woman like you will still love him. Hes already in his forties but has yet to get married.
I know. I already knew when you called me stepmother, Xuan Ming said lightly.
They saw the chains soon enough. Long Chen told Xuan Ming and Mo Xiaolang to stay close to him, and they ran up the chains like an arrow. They didnt look back as they ran into the starry void, the two ex-prisoners seeing hope for the first time.
They could finally bid that horrible place farewell.
Thanks to the Azure Dragon Halberd, the three of them were no longer affected by the gravity. Soon, they ran out of the Azure Dragon Star and were sprinting at full speed towards the crossroad. The Azure Dragon Star, the place where Xuan Ming had lived for twenty years, grew smaller behind them. Long Chen was ecstatic about successfully accomplishing his mission.
Both Xuan Ming and Mo Xiaolang were extremely grateful for Long Chen.
We are almost there. Hes just up ahead. Xuan Ming started crying when she heard Long Chens words. She had waited for twenty years, and her dream would soon come true. Her heart could not hold on any longer.
When they reached the crossroad, they heard an ancient and hoarse laugh. Long Chen panicked. The voice belonged to the Eastern Azure Dragon Patriarch!
