Chapter 5079 Just You Wait
Even after the Domain Lord had left, Huang Wudao’s expression remained dark. Just now, his fist had struck the Domain Lord’s barrier. While the elder had no intention of killing Huang Wudao, the backlash of the attack shattered Huang Wudao’s insides, and he almost spat out blood.
Although severely wounded, Huang Wudao stubbornly acted as if he was fine. While glaring at Long Chen, he shouted, “Little brat, just you wait. I’ll definitely take your head in the Heavenly Flame Devil Domain!”
Long Chen’s face was pale, but his killing intent was unwavering. He replied, “I’ve long since decided to take your life. It’d be best if you sent yourself to my door.”
On his way to the Glacial Heaven Domain, Huang Wudao had almost crushed into his flying boat. At the time, Long Chen had been thinking about killing him. Enemies truly did meet often. Before he even went looking for Huang Wudao, they ended up encountering each other like this.
“We’ll see. White dragon race? Hmph, there is no need for their existence in the future.” Huang Wudao snorted and left with his entourage.
Long Chen had encountered arrogant individuals before, but none as brazen as Huang Wudao. He actually spoke as if he wanted to eliminate the entire white dragon race? Based on what? His own power or his Human Emperor daddy?
“When I reach the Eternal realm, I’ll see whether you Human Emperors are so amazing. Old fogey, just you wait!” Long Chen clenched his teeth in frustration.
“Are you alright?” asked Bai Yingxue worriedly.
“I—” Long Chen suddenly broke into an intense coughing fit.
Inside, Long Chen roared in frustration. His wounds were even worse than he had anticipated. That bastard, how dare he be so heavy-handed?!
The Domain Lord’s intention was clear: to cripple Long Chenor and teach the white dragon race a lesson. Perhaps he really did suspect Long Chen. Regardless, the pressure had severely damaged Long Chen’s bones and meridians. If not for Long Chen’s unwavering will, that immense force could have shattered his mind and soul.
The cat woman suddenly shouted, “Feng You, you troublemaker, get your ass back here! Stop wasting our—”
Pow!
Feng You’s sudden retaliation took the cat woman by surprise. With a fierce slap, she left the cat woman’s face bloodied and clawed. “You think I’ll let you bully me forever?” Feng You snapped. “Now that I’m not afraid of death, what do you have left to threaten me with?”
Feng You’s expression was fierce and intimidating, causing the cat woman and her companions to retreat in haste. She was no longer the timid Feng You they once knew; now she resembled a ferocious beast that had broken out of its cage and was plotting its revenge.
The cat woman recoiled in horror, her face bloodied and disfigured from Feng You’s attack. Feng You’s sinisterly threatened her. “I will repay the humiliation you gave me a hundredfold. Just you wait!”
Trembling, the cat woman and her group fled in terror, unable to even counter Feng You’s threat. In their eyes, Feng You had gone insane, and they weren’t willing to risk their lives facing her wrath.
Hu Xiaoyu was also a bit afraid of Feng You now. Sensing her fear, Feng You turned to her, and her gaze softened.
“Little sister,” she said, “Don’t worry. We don’t have anything left to lose. We’ll live for ourselves and reach Eternity together. Then we’ll slaughter our way back to the mixed beast alliance and bring our people away. Every person who has wronged us will pay their debt in full.”
Hu Xiaoyu nodded. She had long harbored a desire to fight back but had lacked both the courage and the strength. Seeing Feng You’s resolve, she chose to stand by her.
Feng You glanced at Long Chen, her lips parting as if to speak but then closing again as she thought about it.
“My name is Bai Dale. I’m honored to know a huge beauty like you,” said Long Chen with a smile.
Long Chen had frequently called Feng You a "huge beauty" in the past. While she had initially disliked the term, she had eventually grown accustomed to it over time.
When Long Chen called Feng You that again, Hu Xiaoyu’s eyes filled with tears. She had always been one of Long Chen’s worshippers, viewing him as their leader.
Ever since Feng You had led the mixed beast race’s experts away, Hu Xiaoyu had cried many times in secret, mourning their separation. However, Hu Xiaoyu also understood Feng You’s character, so she followed her.
Seeing Long Chen again, Hu Xiaoyu felt like she was finally seeing the sun after a long night of darkness. The world seemed to brighten before her eyes.
“I am the white dragon’s number one junior expert, and this is our number two expert, Bai Yingxue. I hope you all get along,” Long Chen introduced Bai Yingxue to them.
Bai Yingxue, perceptive as always, quickly deduced that these two recognized Long Chen. Given that he had revealed his status to them, it was clear they were trustworthy. Hence, she greeted them warmly.
“Are you alright?” Feng You asked, her voice filled with concern. She felt guilty, knowing that Long Chen had ended up like this to save her.
Reflecting on their departure from the High Firmament Academy, she felt deep remorse. If she hadn’t left back then, none of this would have happened. The weight of her regret was palpable.
“I’m fine. That old fogey really is shameless. I’ll definitely kick his ass one day,” said Long Chen angrily.
The feeling of powerlessness was torture, and Long Chen didn’t want to experience it again. Fortunately, they were about to enter the Heavenly Flame Devil Domain. Once he reached the Eternal realm, he could cultivate the Eight Star Battle Armor. With it, even if he couldn’t defeat a Human Emperor, he should at least be able to escape, avoiding the helplessness he felt now.
Long Chen took a medicinal pill to help him recover. Bai Yingxue suggested going back to the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest to rest, but Long Chen declined. While his injuries might be severe, it was forbidden to fight in Glacial Heaven City, so he could recuperate as he explored this place.
“Let’s go. We should reach the trading area once we’re past the plaza,” Long Chen said, taking a deep breath. He began walking with them toward the back of the plaza.
