Chapter 336 - Sixth River Stage

If ascending to the Sixth River Stage took more than ten thousand pills, how many pills will it take to reach the Ninth River Stage?

A powerful surge of energy shot in all directions.

All of Clear Water City had surrounded Long Chen by now. They were completely shaken by the mysterious teenager. He had turned the tides and annihilated the dwarves alone. They could not believe a teenager who was not even twenty years old had accomplished all of this!

He had even achieved a breakthrough after the battle, thus becoming even stronger.

To most of these people, he was on a level they could never reach. They had no idea that the shining hero before them was actually from a small town much lower-tiered than Clear Water City. He had started from the bottom!

He stood up and looked at all the oddly-shaped dried-up corpses around him. He was also a little shocked that he had done all this. He had annihilated the dwarves.

Killing a person and then robbing them was the nature of life. The regular dwarves did not have much money, but as their Patriarch, Song Zhongcheng was sure to have much more. Long Chen took his Universe Pouch. The number of Heavenly River Pills inside was probably enough for him to complete the whole Heavenly River Realm.

Of course, that would be under normal circumstances.

Heaving a small sigh, Long Chen looked towards Xiaolang. Xiaolang was unconscious and looked very weak. It was likely that he had sustained critical injuries that caused his cultivation to regress.

Xiaolang, you did all of this for me. I swear I will repay you ten times for what you did. You’re my brother for life! Long Chen said in his heart. He carried Xiaolang in his arms, opened the door, and entered, thus disappearing from the gazes of the crowd.

The doctor had added some herbs that aided sleep to Ling Xi’s medicine. Despite the huge commotion outside that shook the whole city, Ling Xi, who was one of the main people involved, was still in a deep sleep. However, without Long Chen by her side, she seemed to be having a nightmare. Her eyebrows were furrowed and terror was written on her face.

Long Chen gently put Xiaolang down and walked to the side of the bed. He let Ling Xi’s hand, which was feeling around the bed, grab his own. After sensing Long Chen’s presence, Ling Xi calmed down, mumbled something, then fell into deep sleep once more. However, thanks to the herbs and getting adequate rest, she was recovering and there was already some color back in her face.

Long Chen was very happy about having someone to protect. Even if he was faced with knives and swords, he would leave a calm space for Ling Xi behind him so she could live without worry.

Only time could heal Xiaolang’s injury, then he would wake. He had burned his life fire after all, and if it was used up, then nothing, not even spiritual herbs, could help him. Fortunately, Long Chen had stopped Xiaolang in time, or he would have been in a dire situation now.

After a while, there was a knock on the door. Long Chen used his Soul Swallowing Gaze to see who it was. It was a young girl at the Earthly Core Realm. She was considered a prodigy in Clear Water City.

Noting the pureness in her gaze, she looked like a kind girl, so he said, “Come in.”

Creak! The wooden door opened, and a pretty teenager of thirteen or fourteen entered. She was a little afraid of him, so her head was lowered and she peered at her surroundings cautiously. When she saw Ling Xi on the bed, her eyes widened and she blurted a praise, “What a beautiful big sister!”

Her compliment was genuine.

She had heard of Long Chen and Ling Xi’s story and knew that Long Chen had killed the Ninth Prince because of her. That was the beginning of them fleeing for their lives. During this journey, this teenager had killed six commanders, annihilated the dwarf tribe, and become famous.

This was a typical story of the hero and the beauty with tragic heroism, a deep bond, relentless determination, and a moving plot. Every time she recalled that these two were in front of her, she felt a fire within.

I hope to be like Big Sister one day... Even if I didn’t know how to cultivate, having a man who would risk his life for me ... She’s so beautiful ... The girl admired and envied Ling Xi.

“What is it?” It was rare for Long Chen to use a polite tone towards a complete stranger these days.

Qingqing was afraid of Long Chen, so she took a few steps back. “I ... I am the daughter of the Clear Water City mayor. I am Liu Qingqing ... I snuck here to tell you some news!” she said as her scalp went numb.

“What news?” He saw that the girl did not look like a malicious person and seemed like she intended to help.

“My father says that a mysterious but powerful figure from the imperial family is coming. Even that dwarf leader would be no match for him! You must leave as soon as possible!”

Long Chen’s brows furrowed.

He wanted to let Ling Xi and Xiaolang rest more, but it looked like that was not possible.

“Thank you.” She had snuck out to tell Long Chen this information, proving that she was kind-hearted. Long Chen smiled at her. After some thought, he recalled the intermediate Earth-tier divine weapons he had received when he defeated Song Yuefeng, which were the Sun and Moon Daggers.

They were considered a divine weapon to be used together.

Qingqing was shocked when Long Chen placed the two shining blades in her hands. He said, “These are intermediate Earth-tier divine weapons that initially belonged to the dwarves. Be careful with them. It’s best not to use them before you become strong to avoid attracting envy. Do you understand me?”

Qingqing was too emotional to speak.

She was only itching to tell him some news she had heard because she admired him a little. She hadn’t expected such a huge reward in return! This was a huge surprise to her.

“Hm, you’d better head back. Don’t let other people see that we were together. It’d be bad for you. I’m leaving immediately. Qingqing, thank you. We’ll meet again if fate lets us!”

In the end, Liu Qingqing did not know how she even left the room as her mind had gone blank. Only Long Chen’s proud and awesome figure was left in her world, and the deep emotion when he spoke.

However, Long Chen was fated to only be a shining passerby in her life.

“I have decided to focus on my cultivation, to advance as fast as possible!” Liu Qingqing dashed to the mayor’s lodge.

After Liu Qingqing left, Long Chen shook Ling Xi gently.

“Xi’er, it’s time to go.”

“Mm...” She slowly opened her eyes and looked at him bleary-eyed. “Brother Chen, is it morning already?”

She rubbed her eyes gently with her fair hands, then stared at him sleepily. She said demurely, “I don’t want to get up... Just let me sleep a bit longer ...”

“No, Xiao Xi, I’ll carry you on my back. It’s late.” Long Chen helped her up, then he put some thick clothes on her so that she was wrapped up warmly.

“Alright ...” Ling Xi pursed her lips.

“Brother Chen, why is Xiaolang ...” Ling Xi gasped when she saw Xiaolang laying on the ground.

“There were a few thieves just now. We killed them, but Xiaolang was injured. I think it’ll take some time for him to recover,” said Long Chen as he searched for a piece of cloth. He wrapped it around his chest, then placed Xiaolang snugly in it.

“Thieves?” Ling Xi frowned. She knew that no ordinary thief could hurt Xiaolang. He was a Sun Devouring Wolf that could even fight a Seventh River Stage cultivator. And his injury looked bad ...

“Xi’er, get up here.” With Xiaolang in front and Ling Xi on his back, any oblivious outsider would laugh at this look, but he did not care. These two were the most important people in his life. It was imperative for him to protect them.

Ling Xi wrapped her arms around his neck, still confused.

The door opened to reveal the mess outside. Signs of the violent battle still remained. There were almost a hundred corpses there, all dead and shriveled up due to his Blood Transmutation.

“Dwarves!” Ling Xi knew who they were because they were mostly short, so they were surely dwarves.

“Brother Chen, are the dwarves here? Is that why we’re running?” Ling Xi was nervous because Long Chen could not defeat an Eighth River Stage cultivator at his current state.

“The dwarves? They have already come,” he said with a grin.

“Huh?”

“Look at the ground. These are all the dwarves, but only their corpses remain,” he said as he passed them.

Ling Xi was even more confused.

“Brother Chen, are you saying that you killed all the dwarves while I was asleep?” Ling Xi asked in disbelief.

“Xiaolang and I killed them together.”

Long Chen dashed out of Clear Water City, welcoming the morning sun. Then he turned so he traveled with his back towards the rising sun ...
