Chapter 35 - Have A Child Soon!
Yang Lingqing knew that Long Chen had obtained the Dragon Seal in less than fifteen days.
At the Warrior’s Market, Yang Lingqing had believed that the Dragon Seal was wasted on Long Chen since he was only at the Fifth Draconic Stage.
It wasn’t surprising for Long Chen to use the Vast Dragon Seal, considering his talent in cultivating martial techniques, but to think he could use the Primordial Dragon Seal.
Only three people in the Yang family could use the Primordial Dragon Seal: the Yang patriarch, Yang Qingxuan, and Yang Xueqing. But Long Chen had cultivated the Primordial Dragon Seal at the Sixth Draconic Stage. That was a difference in two stages compared to Yang Xueqing!
Long Chen’s talent level was higher than Bai Shichen, who cultivated the second finger of the Abyssal Heaven Fingers.
Even though Bai Shichen’s Nine Yellow Rivers was overwhelmingly powerful, he didn’t know that Long Chen was preparing to use the Primordial Dragon Seal!
The image of nine Divine Dragons appeared when the Primordial Dragon Seal was completed. Long Chen controlled the nine dragons and condensed them into a swirling, blood-red wind in the shape of a dragon. The Primordial Dragon Seal instantly collided with the second finger of the Abyssal Heaven Fingers. The shockwave was louder than the one that occurred when Long Chen fought Bai Shiji.
Even Yang Lingqing, who had never cultivated the Primordial Dragon Seal, could tell that Long Chen’s mastery of the Primordial Dragon Seal was better than Bai Shichen mastery of the Nine Yellow Rivers. Bai Shichen was having difficulties controlling his attack since he hadn't reached the Eighth Draconic Stage. Even the trajectory of his attack was shaky.
It wasn’t the case for Long Chen. His Primordial Dragon Seal was even more complete than Yang Qingxuan’s. The majestic aura combined with the bloody aura emanating from the Dragon of Massacre within Long Chen and became an insurmountable wall that became stronger in the face of adversity!
Bai Shichen couldn’t believe what he was seeing. A swirling image of the Divine Dragon completely obliterated his half-assed Nine Yellow Rivers. Despite having the strongest martial technique, he was losing to Long Chen in a manner worse than Bai Shiji.
The invincible dragon breath closed in on him. His face turned pale as he tried to run but the strong attack landed on his shoulder!
Bai Shichen spat out blood and crashed into a boulder behind him, cracking it. The rubble hurt his back as well.
“Impossible!”
Bai Shichen was incredulous. He had never thought he would end up in this scenario.
He was clear about Long Chen’s strength. It was impossible that he would be this strong, but the proof was right in front of his eyes. The pain in his heart and left shoulder was also evidence that he wasn’t dreaming. He had lost to Long Chen’s technique!
“That’s the Primordial Dragon Seal! Impossible, how could Long Chen have such strength at his stage? How could he have learned the Primordial Dragon Seal?”
He was raging wildly when he saw Long Chen smiling evilly in front of him!
Chills went down Bai Shichen’s back when he saw Long Chen’s smile. He now understood why Bai Shidong and Bai Zhixing were so afraid of Long Chen!
Although he didn’t have much strength, Bai Shichen was not the kind of person who gave up easily. He tried to drag his body away and escape, but Long Chen’s voice reached his ears.
“You tried to harm my little sister, so I’m afraid I have to punish your little brother.”
Long Chen kicked Bai Shichen’s crotch hard. Bai Shichen’s face instantly became as red as pork liver while his bloodshot eyes almost fell out of their sockets. He fell onto the ground as he howled in pain and curled up like a shrimp. He trembled and rolled on the ground in pain.
Yang Lingqing approached them and saw how much pain Bai Shichen was in. “Brother Chen, what did you do to cause him such excruciating pain?”
“I don’t know. His heart probably can’t handle his defeat in my hands. Lingqing, we need to leave the Desolate Mountains quickly. I’ve captured Bai Shiji, but the Bai family is trying to harm the Yang family. Let’s take them hostage and head back quickly. We will kill one of them for every member of the Yang family they kill! They dare harm Grandfather and the others!”
Yang Lingqing grew extremely anxious too when Long Chen mentioned the Bai family’s plans. Too much time had passed and the sun was already setting. If they didn’t head back in time, the Yang patriarch and the others might already be injured by the time they arrived!
Long Chen’s plan was risky but it was the only way to save their family.
If Yang Lingqing had to act on her own, she would have no idea what to do. She felt much calmer thanks to Long Chen’s support.
In her heart, Long Chen was capable of miracles since he even managed to defeat Bai Shichen. What couldn’t he do?
This was why Yang Lingqing was not surprised to hear that Long Chen had already captured Bai Shiji and the others.
Time waited for no one. Long Chen ignored Bai Shichen’s pain and dragged him by his shirt collar. Long Chen guided Yang Lingqing to Yang Wu. Thankfully they weren’t too far away. Long Chen and Yang Lingqing ran as fast as they could due to the urgent situation.
They soon arrived at the empty field where Yang Wu and the others were waiting. Yang Wu and Yang Lingyue were not surprised to see Long Chen drag Bai Shichen behind him and throw him onto Bai Shiji.
They had actually grown fearful of Long Chen. They thought back on their rude behavior and were so ashamed that they didn’t even lift their heads.
Long Chen checked on the Bai family members. Bai Zhixing and Bai Shidong had merely passed out. Bai Shiji was awake but his injury was so severe that he couldn’t move. Bai Shichen’s condition was even worse.
It looked like Bai Shichen did not ever have to worry about accidentally getting a girl pregnant.
Long Chen raised his head and inspected Yang Wu. “Are your injuries alright?”
Yang Wu stared at the two injured Bai family members. Compared to them, his injury was minor. “I’m fine now.”
The leadership of the Yang family’s younger generation had shifted to Long Chen.
Long Chen said nothing as he lifted both Bai Shichen and Bai Shiji. “We need to leave the mountains now and hurry back to the Bai family. You two, take them as hostages. Yang Lingqing will explain everything to you.”
Long Chen had defeated both Bai Shiji and Bai Shichen and rescued Yang Wu and Yang Lingyue, and the siblings naturally did not disobey him.
Bai Shidong was covered in the stench of urine. It was too repulsive for a girl like Yang Lingyue so Yang Wu had to carry Bai Shidong down the mountain.
They quickly descended as Yang Lingqing explained everything to Yang Wu and Yang Lingyue.
Yang Wu furrowed his brows. “Why is this happening? The Bai family are worse than livestock. But Lingqing, is our Third Aunt someone like that? I don’t think she would betray us from what I know of her.”
Yang Lingyue had spent the most time with Yang Xueqing among them. She was bewildered too. “I don’t think so either. Third Aunt has always treated me well. She was the one who gave me the spirit jades I needed to break through the Sixth Draconic Stage ...”
Yang Lingqing shook her head in bitterness. “I have no idea either, but Bai Shichen was the one who said it ...”
When they brought Yang Xueqing up, they stared at Long Chen, who was running at the front. They felt the killing intent from Long Chen grew heavier and they didn’t utter another word ...
“No need to talk about it further. Everything will be revealed once we arrive at the Bai family residence.”
Long Chen’s voice sounded nonchalant, the three of them knew how heavy his heart was.
***
It was an important day for Baiyang Town.
Two prominent families controlled the town, and if it was an important day for them, it would also be an important day for Baiyang Town.
The heart-pumping Demon Hunting Tournament was an important event, but the most auspicious event was still the marriage linking the Bai family and the Yang family. It was the first marriage between members of the two families.
The first wife of Bai Zhanxiong, the third son of the Bai family, had passed away after giving birth to two sons. Bai Zhanxiong had waited until Yang Xueqing had become a widow in order to marry her.
To outsiders, Bai Zhanxiong’s life was not a rosy one.
Many guests attended the wedding ceremony. Almost every faction and powerful individuals in Baiyang Town was present. They were all celebrating at the banquet, laughing and drinking wine. Now that the ceremony was over, the bridge had already been sent into the newlyweds’ room while groom Bai Zhanxiong drank with the guests.
“I dedicate this toast to my esteemed guests!”
“Senior Bai is magnanimous!”
“I wish that both Senior Bai and Sister Xueqing will live together well into old age.”
“I wish that you have a child soon! And give birth to another child soon!”
“I will do my best!”
The group of people laughed happily as the scene became livelier by the minute. Just then, one of the guards whispered something in Bai Zhanxiong’s ears. Bai Zhanxiong poured another cup of wine. “Brothers, today is a happy day for me. Please drink and talk as much as you want. I have to excuse myself to offer my father-in-law a toast!”
The esteemed guests sent him off as Bai Zhanxiong walked down a corridor and entered a large hall. The hall was filled with tables of food and wine but there weren’t as many celebrants. The hall was filled with people from the Bai family and Yang family.
Since some of the youths were participating in the Demon Hunting Tournament, there weren’t as many guests, but it was equally lively.
The Yang patriarch and the Bai patriarch were happily drinking when Bai Zhanxiong entered the hall. After he walked in, he gently closed the door. Several guards appeared from the shadows to guard the entrance. Only then did Bai Zhanxiong relax. He laughed and approached the Yang patriarch. “Uncle Yang, oh wait, I meant ‘Father-in-law.’ Your son-in-law would like to dedicate a toast to you!”
The Yang patriarch was naturally happy to see Bai Zhanxiong. He quickly pulled Bai Zhanxiong to sit beside him. Everyone could tell that the Yang patriarch was very happy, and his face was red from drinking too much. He pulled Bai Zhanxiong as he said, “When you were newly born, your father and I guarded the maternity room together. I was just as nervous as your father because we had decided that his third child would marry Qing’er. Thankfully you were male and female. It was only because fate played a cruel trick on you that Long Qinglan appeared. But finally, the moment you have been waiting for has arrived today! I really wish both of you happiness from the bottom of my heart ...”
The Yang patriarch suddenly felt dizzy, but he laughed it off. “I’ve become so old now. To think I would pass out from such a small amount of wine...”
Bai Zhanxiong patted the Yang patriarch’s shoulder and laughed. “Yeah, it’s time for you to pass on. In fact, it’s time for the entire Yang family to pass on. Ultimately, Baiyang Town is the territory of the Bai family ...”
