Dragon War God

Chapter 16 - Typhoon Nine Fingers

“You ... You’ve really come back?!”

Long Chen smiled calmly as he stared at the crowd. “You kept saying that you would get the Dragon Seal, so why did you lose? You are such an embarrassment. I guess I have to avenge you now.”

Yang Lingqing had never truly expected Long Chen to come back. She was still stunned by everything that had happened so she did not know how to react when she saw his confident smile. But when she thought how her brother had committed suicide because of Long Chen, Yang Lingqing face grew cold as she shrieked, “You coward! Return my brother’s life!”

Her shout attracted everyone’s attention.

The entire courtyard was instantly filled with chattering. Long Chen raised his head and met their eyes. He smiled coldly, straightened his body, and walked up the arena under the immense pressure.

The Yang patriarch was just about to pass the Dragon Seal to Yang Lingyue!

When Long Chen appeared, the pupils of the people onstage shrank. Some of their faces grew cold. Yang Xueqing was the most agitated. Just as she was about to stand, Bai Zhanxiong pulled her down and whispered, “Xueqing, he has guts. Let us see what kind of trouble he’s planning. If you fight him in public, you will ruin your reputation.”

Yang Xueqing sat back down, her gaze was cold as ever as she stared at Long Chen.

Long Chen suddenly stared at her and she flinched. Long Chen’s eyes were unyielding, and his gaze was sharp as an arrow. Yang Xueqing panicked a little on the inside. contemporary romance

“This bastard ... He’s gotten even stronger ...”

Yang Xueqing was shocked.

Long Chen took one look at her and chuckled. He was undoubtedly the center of attention. The one standing in front of him was none other than the strongest member of the Yang family, his grandfather! His grandfather stared at Long Chen blankly.

Even he was surprised by Long Chen’s behavior. Even in this crowd, Long Chen didn’t reveal even an ounce of fear, and he displayed his bravery as he walked calmly.

Even his grandfather, who had lived a long life, was impressed. He knew that the Yang family was a hellish torment to Long Chen.

Disregarding his life and standing in such an unyielding way. If he’s not an idiot, he’s a hell of a guy.

This was the judgement made by Long Chen’s grandfather. He was more than happy to see what Long Chen would do.

Everyone’s gazes were focused on Long Chen. Many ridiculed him even as his behavior impressed his grandfather. Most of them thought that Long Chen had a few screws loose in his head.

Long Chen's gaze was strong and spirited as he stared at his grandfather. He slowly knelt and said loudly, “Greetings to my grandfather. I should be punished for arriving late to the Family Meeting, but ...“

He raised his head and stared calmly at Yang Lingyue. “I am also a member of the Yang family and wish to have the chance to fight for the Dragon Seal. Please allow your humble grandson to fight with Sister Lingyue to determine the champion!”

Everyone knew that Long Chen wanted the Dragon Seal. The blunt and bold way he expressed his intentions in front of his grandfather impressed them but they shook their heads when they thought of the gap between him and Yang Lingyue.

“Wishful thinking.” Yang Xueqing chuckled.

Everyone else was thinking the same.

As he stared at the courageous youth whose gaze did not waver, Long Chen’s grandfather grew more and more excited. However, he maintained his calm as he said, “Chen’er, the family has its own rules. Since you are late, you do not have the right to participate in the tournament. Also, the champion was selected after numerous rounds. I’m afraid it’s not appropriate for you to just show up and fight in the finals.”

Long Chen understood that he had a chance since his grandfather did not deny him immediately. He raised his voice deliberately, “If Grandfather thinks that I cannot fight Yang Lingyue just because I did not fight multiple rounds, you may select anyone in the family to fight me. How can you determine that Sister Lingyue is superior to me unless we fight each other? The Dragon Seal is meant for the most talented individual among the younger generation of the Yang family.”

He turned to look at Yang Lingyue, who was furious that he’d stolen her spotlight. She also remembered that he caused Yang Zhan’s death. Naturally, she wanted to kill him on the spot.

Long Chen looked at her and said, “I hope Sister Lingyue still remembers our bet. If you lose, I will ...”

“Enough!”

Yang Lingyue’s face was as cold as frost as she spoke to her grandfather. “Grandfather, let me fight this brat! I don’t want the others to think that I am not the true champion today nor do I want him to embarrass us further! I hate people that plot against others in the shadows. Let me teach him a lesson!”

Yang Lingyue was firm. Their grandfather smiled mysteriously. “Since you guys insist, I can only agree to it. But remember, no killing. Control yourself! If you embarrass the Yang family, no one gets the Dragon Seal!”

Long Chen was happy that he had successfully taunted Yang Lingyue. “Thank you, Grandfather! Since Sister Lingyue is a lady, naturally, I will show mercy!”

“You rascal!” Yang Lingyue was furious.

Yang Lingqing watched the scene unfold with a complicated gaze. Her brother had died because of Long Chen and her father wanted to kill Long Chen. But then again, she had a good relationship with Long Chen before. She was quietly impressed by his spiritedness in the arena, as well.

We can deal with what happened to my brother after the gathering. But to think that he would make such a grand entrance. If he doesn't have the strength, he’s pretty much dead ... He was only at the Third Draconic Stage half a month ago. That’s a gap of three stages! How could he fight Sister Lingyue? What should I do?

Yang Qingxuan and Yang Wu were discussing the matter too.

Yang Wu’s gaze was sharp as he stared at Long Chen. “That brat is only at the Fourth Draconic Stage. He’s so arrogant just because he learned a Body Tempering method. Nothing but a frog in the well.”

Yang Qingxuan nodded in agreement. “Indeed. Two stages is not a gap that a Body Tempering method can make up for. But he is indeed very brave to stand in the arena today.”

Yang Wu smiled lightly. “Courageous, but foolish. He’s nothing but a laughingstock.”

Yang Qingxuan merely smiled as he silently agreed.

The Yang patriarch returned to his seat and talked with his guests for a moment. Long Chen and Yang Lingyue’s fight was about to start.

“Sixth Draconic Stage ...”

Long Chen clenched his teeth as Yang Lingyue’s gaze turned as sharp as blades.

“I won’t play any games with you! I will fight with my full strength! Don’t blame me if you die!”

Yang Lingyue laughed coldly at Long Chen’s words. “Dream on. Remember well that you are only a slave of the Yang family. Don’t think you are someone important just because you obtained some measly strength.”

Long Chen saved his breath and did not argue with her.

His entire body contracted as faint starlight appeared all over him. His eyes grew so bright that they were like stars themselves. Yang Lingyue’s vision was temporarily distorted by the strong light.

“Child’s play! I’ve heard that you can use Meteor Fist! I have cultivated two different techniques too! Let me show you what the true Meteor Fist tastes like!”

Yang Lingyue shouted as the strength of a Sixth Draconic Stage cultivator exploded. She closed in on Long Chen like a whirlwind as starlight gathered at her fist. She punched forcefully at Long Chen.

Long Chen had already mastered the Meteor Fist. The only disadvantage was his Qi, which was two stages below Yang Lingyue’s–a difference twenty times over!

“You don’t even have the qualifications to discuss the Meteor Fist with me!”

Long Chen laughed as Yang Lingyue’s Meteor Fist streaked across the sky towards him. His gaze turned fierce as he shouted and stomped his feet squarely on the arena, launching himself towards Yang Lingyue like a missile. Starlight appeared on his fist before it made contact with Yang Lingyue’s Meteor Fist. Their techniques collided with an explosion.

“That brat actually uses the Meteor Fist to such a masterful degree with just the Qi of the Fourth Draconic Stage! It’s even stronger than Qing’er’s!”

Their grandfather focused on him.

Those who were familiar with the Meteor Fist were deeply impressed as they talked among themselves. Even Yang Xueqing was surprised. I heard that he used the Meteor Fist to defeat Zhan’er before. I didn’t believe it then but looking at his fist now ... His mastery of it is equal to mine ...

While everyone was surprised, Yang Lingyue had already pushed Long Chen back. Her Meteor Fist was about to injure him when Yang Xueqing chuckled.

“You can’t win! You don’t have enough Qi even though you are talented in cultivating martial techniques!”

Long Chen’s blood was boiling from the impact of his opponent’s Meteor Fist.

Her Qi is twenty times more than mine! But you are dead wrong if you think I’m going to lose here!

Although his right-handed Meteor Fist impressed the spectators, it was not enough against Yang Lingyue. Just then, Long Chen roared as he used both hands to unleash consecutive Meteor Fists!

Boom!

There was a giant explosion as Long Chen managed to block Yang Lingyue and steady himself at the same time.

The two consecutive Meteor Fist stunned everyone. Their grandfather even got to his feet excitedly. “He’s a genius! He uses the Meteor Fist so masterfully even though he’s only at the Fourth Draconic Stage! He’s definitely a genius!”

Yang Qingxuan and the others were shocked too. Yang Wu was shocked as well, even though he was belittling Long Chen. He gulped, “Dad ... He’s only sixteen, right? If not for the incident with Yang Zhan, we might be able to catch up to the Bai family ...”

Two consecutive Meteor Fists. Long Chen came up with it after going through some training.

He used two Meteor Fists to push Yang Lingyue back. Long Chen’s blood was still boiling as he stared at the furious Yang Lingyue.

Yang Lingyue is not an easy opponent! I’ve used two Meteor Fists and consumed half of my Qi. If things continue this way, I will still lose, no matter how masterfully I use it. If that happens, my grandfather will not defend me, and Yang Yuntian will kill me!

Since he had no path of retreat, Long Chen’s eyes gradually grew more insane and desperate, making even Yang Lingyue afraid. Still, she clenched her teeth and attacked Long Chen again.

If I win, I live. If I lose, not only will I die, I will also become a joke. I can only win! I must not lose!

Long Chen laughed like a maniac at these thoughts. Yang Lingyue realized he was about to risk everything. Fear sprang up in her heart and she instinctively used her strongest technique.

“The Dragon Seal is not for you! Typhoon Nine Fingers!”

“First finger, strike!”

“Second finger, break!”

“Third finger, revolve!”

“Fourth finger, annihilate!”

Each attack from the Typhoon Nine Fingers forced Long Chen to step back. Everyone knew that Long Chen's only attack was the Meteor Fist. He had nothing else to use. With Yang Lingyue using her Typhoon Nine Fingers, Long Chen’s defeat was imminent!

Outside of the arena, Yang Lingqing was worried.

Sister Lingyue’s Typhoon Nine Fingers is extraordinary! I lost to the same technique, naturally he will too. If he loses ...

Everyone wanted to know how Long Chen planned to fight the Typhoon Nine Fingers. Instead of retreating, Long Chen walked towards Yang Lingyue. Everyone was shocked that he was not trying anything!

“Is he trying to die?”

“Heavens! He’s trying to commit suicide!”
