Chapter 28 - Ancient Bloodsoul Dragon

Long Chen had broken through the Sixth Draconic Stage. He now had as much Qi as Yang Lingyue and the others. However, the quality of his Qi was four times better than theirs.

In terms of pure Qi, Long Chen could utilize four times the strength of a Sixth Draconic Stage cultivator. That was almost half the strength of an ordinary Seventh Draconic Stage cultivator.

In addition to the Constellation Body and the martial techniques he’d already mastered, he had utmost confidence in fighting Bai Shiji.

If he could transform back to his monstrous form, his Qi would be ten times stronger and his physical body would be significantly tougher. He could fight an Eighth Draconic Stage cultivator in that form.

Long Chen’s heart shook at that thought. He was already so strong with only a thousandth of the Inherited Blood Essence. What realm would he reach if he absorbed all of it?

Judging from the Blood Transmutation technique, the Inherited Blood Essence had many other secrets. If he had the complete legacy, how much stronger would he get?

Long Chen was in a daze as he thought about the possibilities. He snapped out of it after some time and asked Ling Xi.

“Xiao Xi, am I considered a Dragon Warrior now?”

Ling Xi was relieved to see Long Chen finally react. She nodded. “Even though I don’t know much about Dragon Warriors, you should be one based on what we have seen. Oh right, I wanted to ask you: what kind of dragon is the Inherited Blood Essence from? Was it a Ghost Blood Dragon? Your form is like the ones that I’ve seen in books.”

Naturally, Long Chen didn’t know what kind of dragon it was. He was just about to say he didn’t know when words appeared mysteriously in his mind. Long Chen said them out loud without thinking.

“Ancient ... Bloodsoul ... Dragon ...”

When he finished reading the words, the blood in his body mysteriously boiled up, as if it were excited, and he felt an insurmountable pride. Even Long Chen’s confidence shot up.

“Ancient Bloodsoul Dragon?

Ling Xi muttered to herself as she scanned her memories. Her eyes suddenly widened in disbelief as she stared stupidly at Long Chen, her jaw falling to the ground.

Long Chen thought she was cute even though she was making a very unsightly face.

“What’s wrong, miss? Are you attracted to me?”

Ling Xi ignored him as her voice trembled. “You ... Are you sure it\'s the Ancient Bloodsoul Dragon?”

Long Chen felt something was off. He stopped joking around and got serious. “Yeah, I’m sure of it. What’s wrong?”

Ling Xi still looked at him in disbelief as she shook her head. “No, impossible. The Ancient Bloodsoul Dragon is a legend among legends ... This is impossible ...”

Even though Ling Xi was in denial, Long Chen was very sure the Inherited Blood Essence belonged to the Ancient Bloodsoul Dragon. “Xiao Xi, please tell me, is there something wrong with the Ancient Bloodsoul Dragon?”

Ling Xi mumbled. “You don’t understand. Legends say that dragons ruled over the Dragon Continent. There were trillions of species of dragons! Do you know what that means? The vast Dragon Continent was saturated with myriads of dragons. The total number of dragons was ten times more than the total number of humans today, and each one was the pinnacle lifeform of the continent!

“Ever since the dawn of mankind, no one in history has ever reached the strength of the strongest dragon species. During the Ancient Ages, when the Dragon Continent was still new, ten dragon bloodlines were at the pinnacle of all dragons. The ten strongest dragons were entities that defied the heavens. They were called the Ten Dragon Ancestors!”

Ling Xi raised her head and stared at Long Chen. She said slowly, “The Ancient Bloodsoul Dragon was the Dragon Ancestor that was one of the Ten Dragon Ancestors and ruled over blood and massacre!”

Long Chen was stunned. He had no concept of how important they were. Even though Ling Xi had explained so much, he only had a vague feeling that the Ancient Bloodsoul Dragon had once been at the apex of the Dragon Continent. As for how strong it was, he had no clue.

Ling Xi shook her head. “That’s why I said it was impossible. The Ancient Bloodsoul Dragon has vanished for millions and millions of years. How could its Inherited Blood Essence be contained within a normal martial technique book? The seal on it was so simple that even I could decipher it ... So, I don’t think it\'s possible ...”

Her words plunged him into uncertainty.

Never mind. No matter what kind of dragon it was, the Dragon Jade Pendant suppressed it. Now that I’ve completed my father’s instructions and become a Dragon Warrior, my cultivation speed will skyrocket! The Blood Transmutation will play an important role too. The Qi that my father left for me to cultivate can no longer support the speed of my cultivation!

But the quality and strength of my Qi has increased fourfold. The obstacle to break through to a new stage will increase four times too. Heck, it could even be ten times harder. I cannot be complacent ...

Long Chen stood up and carefully cupped Ling Xi in his hands. “Young lady, now that I’ve grown stronger, I will be able to protect you better. Who cares what kind of dragon it was? Also, I will get you as many herbs to nourish your Divine Soul as you need. You’ve saved me twice, so it’s time I pay you back!”

Ling Xi finally snapped out the shock she’d felt when she heard it was the Ancient Bloodsoul Dragon. She collected herself and saw the confidence in his eyes. She felt confused. Even though she was beside him, she could not uncover the secrets of his body.

He will have a bright future as a Dragon Warrior and with that technique. Maybe he can even find a way to recover my physical body ...

Her feelings for Long Chen were changing day by day. She found out that at this point she did not want to leave him anymore.

He gingerly placed her on his shoulder and smiled. “Alright. The issue with the Dragon Seal had been dealt with. The Demon Hunting Tournament is coming soon, so I will use the next few days to fortify my cultivation.”

Bai Shiji’s visage appeared in front of him. He clenched his fists and smiled coldly. Let’s see which technique is stronger next time, your Abyssal Heaven Fingers or my Dragon Seal! You think you can defeat me, but I will give you a nasty surprise!

***

Long Chen spent the last eight days cultivating and fortifying himself. On the eighth day, he stood and left for the Yang Residence.

After increasing his strength, he was very confident about the Demon Hunting Tournament.

I already injured Bai Zhixing and Bai Shidong nine days ago. I’ve even humiliated Yang Xueqing in public. They will probably cause some trouble with me once I get back, but I am Long Chen, and I will never be afraid.

It was close to noon when he finally entered the Yang Residence. The guards came up and informed him, “Young Master Chen, the patriarch is hosting a banquet for the Bai patriarch and his family. They are starting soon. The patriarch has instructed you to immediately go to the Grand Martial Pavilion the moment you return.”

The Grand Martial Pavilion was where the patriarch hosted important guests.

Long Chen felt repulsed. He knew that Bai Zhanxiong and the rest would be there too.

Long Chen did not understand what the Yang Patriarch was thinking since the Demon Hunting Tournament was approaching. But then, the Yang patriarch had a good relationship with the Bai patriarch. Both of them were sworn brothers and had been legends in Baiyang Town.

Long Chen soon arrived at the Grand Martial Pavilion. It was very lively, and a variety of food was spread out over two large sandalwood tables. Beautiful servants traversed the tables.

At the head of the table was the Yang patriarch as well as Yang Qingxuan and his siblings. On the other side was a naive-looking, short and fat old man. His hair was completely white but his face was ruddy. He was old, but he was healthy.

It was the Bai patriarch. Even though he had aged, his strength had not diminished. His cultivation was the highest within Baiyang Town.

Beneath him were two middle-aged men. One was Bai Zhanxiong, the third son of the Bai family. The other was Bai Zhanfeng, the fourth son.

They had appeared at the Family Meeting. Bai Shidong, whom Long Chen had traumatized, was Bai Zhanfeng’s son.

The other table was for the younger generations. On the Yang family side were Yang Wu, Yang Lingyue, and Yang Lingqing. The Bai family had Bai Shiji, Bai Zhixing, and Bai Shidong. There was another man who was handsome despite his cold expression. Long Chen felt a hint of danger from him.

Long Chen assumed that he was the infamous Bai Shichen, the strongest of the younger generation of Baiyang Town.

The strongest people of both families were present.

The banquet had already started. Both the Bai and Yang patriarchs were laughing happily. When Long Chen entered the place, their smiles froze.

Numerous gazes fell on him.

The Bai patriarch was unfazed but others were not. Both Bai Zhanxiong’s and Bai Zhanfeng\'s faces turned gloomy while Yang Yuntian’s and Yang Xueqing’s expressions were even worse. Yang Qingxuan had the same faint smile as his father.

The younger generations of the Bai family hated Long Chen’s guts, especially Bai Shiji. His eyes seemed like they would burn holes in Long Chen. However, both Bai Zhixing and Bai Shidong were slightly afraid of Long Chen. It was also Bai Shichen’s first time meeting Long Chen. Even though his gaze was calm, it was as sharp as a sword.

Long Chen had arrived at an awkward time, resulting in an uncomfortable atmosphere. The Yang patriarch reacted first and laughed cheerfully. “Chen’er, you are back! Now, everyone is here. Chen’er, go and sit at that table.”

Almost everyone at the other table glared at Long Chen.

“Hey, I think your social skills are shit. Only Yang Lingqing approves of you ...” Ling Xi gloated.
