Chapter 511 - True Martial Demon Body
“It’s not what I think it is?” The Demon General laughed. “And what else would it be? You two have set up a little love nest here. I’m sure you’ve been having fun for the past few days. You are indeed a bitch, just like your mother. To think that you are even more of a whore than her.”
Demon General Strongman’s words were vile. Liu Yiyi never thought he would say something like that, and tears pooled in her eyes. She had never been scolded like this before.
Seeing how helpless she was, Long Chen frowned. “Don’t listen to him. He’s just incapable of reasoning with himself. Plus, you did nothing wrong. Why are you afraid of him? Even if we had done something, so what? It’s your choice, so what does it have to do with him?”
Long Chen was right. She nodded and recovered.
Long Chen then looked at Demon General Strongman. “I know you’re here for me. She’s innocent, so let her go. You came here to kill me, right? Let’s settle the score right here and now.”
“Jiang Cheng, do you take me for a fool? If I let her go, she will come back with reinforcements. Since I’m already here blocking your escape, that means I don’t intend on living at the Ancient Demon Domain anymore. I will kill you and then enjoy myself with her. You think I’m an idiot? Why wouldn’t I take advantage of her since we are alone? This is the only way I can feel good after getting mistreated by that bitch the Clear Shallows King.”
Long Chen snarled. He could tell the girl behind him was already trembling, so he gently took her hand. “Don’t worry. He won’t be able to do anything with me here.”
A warm strength came from Long Chen’s hands. The helpless Liu Yiyi felt safe thanks to him. Demon General Strongman was snarling and on the verge of insanity. He looked horrifying, but Long Chen was right. Now that the situation was at its worst, being afraid would not help her. The only thing she could do was fight back. At worst, she would die with Long Chen, but she didn’t think that would be a bad way to go.
“Don’t worry. I’m not scared of him.” Liu Yiyi nodded. Long Chen’s hand gave her a lot of warmth.
“When the fight starts, find a way to escape. As long as you can escape, I will be fine.”
Long Chen didn’t want to reveal the Primordial Realm if possible, or he would’ve placed Liu Yiyi into it while he used Blood Warp to escape. Demon General Strongman would never be able to capture him like that. Still, Long Chen was certain that he could hold up against the Demon General until Liu Yiyi escaped. As long as she did, they would be safe.
“I don’t want to run away by myself. I want to stay with you ...”
“Have you forgotten my escape technique? As long as you are out of here, I will be safe!”
Liu Yiyi finally realized that it was a good plan. She had forgotten about the technique completely. As long as she could make it out, Long Chen would be able to escape too. Thankfully, they were whispering to each other, so Demon General Strongman did not hear them.
Liu Yiyi was visibly more relaxed now that they had a plan. She nodded and waited to see how Long Chen would distract the Demon General.
The Demon General smiled when he saw the two of them whispering to each other. He approached them, and the cave shook with every step.
Liu Yiyi didn’t know how strong Long Chen was, so she explained, “He’s called Strongman because he has a King-tier Body Tempering technique, the True Martial Demon Body! It’s one of the top three strongest Body Tempering techniques in the Ancient Demon Domain. Only those above the Demon General rank are allowed to learn it, and only a few grand elders have managed to cultivate it successfully. Out of all the Demon Generals, only Strongman was successful in cultivating it, so you need to be careful!”
“True Martial Demon Body? King-tier?” Long Chen was shocked. A King-tier Body Tempering technique was far stronger than his own physical body. This was the first time he had met someone whose physical body was stronger than his after he had absorbed a hundredth of the Inherited Blood Essence.
Demon General Strongman!
The Clear Shallows King was stronger than the Demon Generals, but Long Chen hadn’t gotten a chance to fight them yet.
Long Chen felt an oppressive strength coming from Demon General Strongman. He felt like he was facing a tall mountain that had stood motionlessly for eons. Strongman wasn’t that much smaller than demonic beasts, and his strength was comparable to theirs!
The cave trembled every time Demon General Strongman took a step.
“Have you felt how insignificant you are after sensing my strength?” Demon General Strongman was only ten meters away. He raised his head and smiled cruelly at Long Chen before ogling Liu Yiyi. Liu Yiyi was indeed a beautiful girl with snow-white skin and a curvy body. Even old men like Demon General Strongman would desire her.
Long Chen took a few steps back while he observed Demon General Strongman. He transformed as he retreated. Blood-red scales covered Long Chen’s body while Demon General Strongman looked at him in surprise.
Even he sensed how strong Long Chen had become after transforming.
“What a terrifying Beast Soul Transformation. You must’ve absorbed a Beast Soul at the Category Nine Heaven-tier or above after you reached the Heavenly Passage Realm. It seems that you have quite the background here.”
“I do have a fairly formidable background. Still want to fight me?”
“Hmph! Even if the king of heaven wanted to protect you, I would still take your life today! I’ve always wanted to leave the Ancient Demon Domain anyway! I can become the strongest man in one of the smaller kingdoms. Once I establish a kingdom, I can become the emperor and have as many beauties as I want.” Demon General Strongman chuckled as he envisioned his future. He always wanted to leave this place, and Long Chen’s arrival had hastened his decision.
Plus, he needed to take revenge for Zhao Wuji.
“I’ve heard that your physical body is the strongest amongst the youths. Let me show you today what a truly strong physical body looks like!” Demon General Strongman took a deep breath before charging at Long Chen.
A simple punch from the Demon General was strong enough to split the seas. He did not hold back at all!
“Now!” Long Chen pushed Liu Yiyi to the side. He had already promised her that he would be safe the moment she managed to escape.
In order to give her enough time to do so, Long Chen would have to distract Demon General Strongman. That was why he charged at him right after throwing Liu Yiyi to the side. While running towards the Demon General, he took out the Demon Emperor Sword and swung it. An incredibly strong Sword Qi crashed into the Demon General’s fist.
“Haha! Too weak! You’re barely scratching my itch!” Demon General Strongman laughed. Even though Long Chen used his full strength, he couldn’t leave a scratch on Demon General Strongman’s fist. The True Martial Demon Body was indeed overpowering!
Long Chen was extremely shocked.
Thankfully, Liu Yiyi did not waste any time. She ran as fast as possible towards the exit while Long Chen was fighting. The sooner she ran out, the better the chances of Long Chen surviving.
Even though she was worried about him, she bit her lip and ran. Still, tears streamed down her cheeks. Long Chen could’ve escaped if he didn’t have her to worry about, but now he was risking his life for her!
Long Chen was watching Liu Yiyi while he was fighting. He dodged Demon General Strongman’s attacks. Demon General Strongman was proficient in melee, and Long Chen would die if he was hit by a single attack.
So Long Chen decided to use the Demon Emperor Sword and used the Sword Qi to attack him from afar.
“Are you buying time for her to escape? How magnanimous of you.” Demon General Strongman reacted when he noticed Liu Yiyi running away. Rather than continuing his battle with Long Chen, he turned around to chase after Liu Yiyi. He could easily capture her because he was faster.
Long Chen frowned. He never thought Demon General Strongman would focus on her. That meant his plan would fail!
Long Chen used the Heavenly Sword Array and the Blood Devouring Domain at the same time. Even though he wasn’t sure if he could defeat the Demon General, he was hoping that he could at least stall for time.
Sensing the large disturbance behind him, Demon General Strongman realized that danger was coming. He was on the verge of taking Liu Yiyi hostage, but he was forced to turn around to face Long Chen.
When did he get so strong!?
