Dragon Blooded War God

The others did not speak; they were all looking at the leader, Long Yue. Long Chen did not fear this mysterious woman who seemed to be shrouded in mist, perhaps due to her having some Dragon Warrior energy in her. She felt familiar.

Long Yue spoke in a manner that was not rushed, but not dragged either. She seemed cold, but that was merely her personality. He could not measure her emotions at all from her voice.

Judging by her voice, she was, at most, in her thirties. Compared to the Demon Emperor, who was in his fifties, it meant that she was much more talented than he was.

Long Yue’s eyes scanned his body, and then she said, “When I was treating your injuries, I checked your body and indeed found that you also possess the blood of a Dragon Warrior. I thought I had made a mistake when I saw your Dragon Soul Transformation before.”

Long Chen smiled bitterly in his heart. She was treating him as a Dragon Warrior Descendant. Since he could not absolutely trust these people, he obviously would not tell them that he was a Dragon Warrior himself. His mind raced quickly, and he realized that he should pretend not to know anything. That was the more normal response.

Therefore, he replied cluelessly, “What is a Dragon Warrior?”

His response was within the six people’s expectations.

“During the Ancient Era of the Dragon Continent, ancient dragons ruled the world. However, they are all extinct now, and not much of their bloodline remains today. When one receives the Inherited Blood Essence from the dragons, they can become a powerful Dragon Warrior. We are the descendants of Dragon Warriors,” explained Long Yue.

“So that’s why I have powers like these. Is it because of the Dragon Warrior?” Long Chen replied with surprise. Due to the situation, he had no choice but to lie. No one other than Ling Xi and Xiaolang could know about this.

“In regards to my bloodline, only my younger brother and I remain. And we know that there are no more Dragon Warrior descendants in the Divine Martial Empire. This bloodline has been passed down for a long time, and many family members have gone missing in the middle. That is why I am sure that you and I are actually from the same family. We both have the same ancestor.” Even though she had found a family member, Long Yue did not seem very emotional. However, the others were grinning because their leader would not talk this much if not for Long Chen.

“Is that so?” There was confusion in his eyes, though he was only acting. It was just a white lie; he genuinely felt grateful to them.

“Do you have any other family members?” Long Yue asked hurriedly. This was the actual question she wanted to ask.

“I don’t. I’ve been alone for as long as I can remember,” said Long Chen.

The six of them were a little disappointed. After a while, Long Yue said, “I initially thought that if you had a large family, Dragon Warriors like us would be able to restore our glory by relying on you guys. This is a pity. But, Long Chen, since you and I are related by blood, and we saved you from the Ancient Demon Domain, I need to tell you something.”

“Please, do tell,” said Long Chen, nodding.

“Do you know who we are?” Long Yue asked.

“I don’t. To be honest, I’m from a small kingdom under the jurisdiction of the Divine Martial Empire. I am not familiar with this place at all. If I was, I would not have accidentally killed the Demon Emperor’s son, causing that disaster,” said Long Chen.

They nodded. They were just wondering why the Demon Emperor wanted to kill this minor character.

“I’ll introduce us to little Long Chen, then.” Jiang Wuya, who was from the Ancient Demon Domain, took a step forward. He was a handsome middle-aged man who was as sophisticated as Dongfang Xuanxiao. With a faint smile on his face, he said, “The six of us do not belong to any faction. We gathered together and were sworn in as brothers and sisters. We play together, kill together, sing together, and drink together. Due to Yue, the six of us named ourselves the Dragon clan. Every major faction of the Divine Martial Empire hates us like a thorn in their flesh! We are all from different places, but we share one similarity. We are the enemies of the Martial Alliance. Archnemeses. The six of us take up six spots in the Bounty Board’s top ten!”

Long Chen was surprised. So they were all enemies of the Martial Alliance. That explained why their attitudes were so wild and free. Most importantly, they took up six spots on the Bounty Board’s top ten?

“But why did I hear that only the top three are at the Earthly Martial Realm?” Long Chen recalled Jiang Cheng mentioning this.

“That’s just lies from the Martial Alliance to make the general public think we are weak. If we were only as strong as they said, why would the Demon Emperor let us leave the Ancient Demon Domain?” said Jiang Wuya with a faint smile.

“I see.” Long Chen nodded.

Jiang Wuya pointed at Long Yue and said, “She, Long Yue, is number two on the Bounty Board. I am fourth. As for them, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth. It was as if the Bounty Board was started just for us.”

Long Chen was very impressed.

Jiang Wuya continued, “After such a long introduction, my point is that your name has probably spread everywhere already because we saved you. The Martial Alliance sees us as a thorn in their flesh, and with their personalities, they will definitely see you as one of us. That is why you cannot continue to stay the Divine Martial Empire. Your cultivation has fallen to a very weak state too; it’s not enough for self-preservation at all.”

“What should I do, then?” Long Chen had sensed this problem too. He had already fought the Martial Alliance in the very beginning. This time, they would likely put a bounty on his head. In the face of the major factions, he stood no chance of survival in his current state.

Jiang Wuya gazed at him warmly. “You have two choices. First, you can return to where you came from. Since we rescued you, we will finish the job and escort you home.”

“What about the second?” asked Long Chen.

“The second is something that we all discussed and agreed on. You may come with us temporarily and we will, of course, be able to protect you. Don’t get all suspicious of our intentions; we’re doing this because you are from the same clan as Yue’er. I believe Yue’er also really wants her clan’s bloodline to continue.”

Jiang Wuya looked at Long Yue as he spoke.

She nodded and said, “You are from the Long clan and naturally, it is my duty to protect you. I will be able to use medicine to help you heal from the hidden damage done to your body. It is up to you if you want to follow us six siblings.”

Long Chen was first silent.

“You brat, what are you hesitating for? These six people are all you can rely on for now! It’ll be the right decision to follow them for now!” reminded Little Cat in the Primordial Realm.

It was true. Long Chen thought for a moment and made his decision.

Long Yue suddenly said, “Of course, the six of us are already sworn brothers and sisters. You’re only temporarily following us. If we find that you’re good, we don’t mind having a Seventh Brother.”

The others smiled.

The girl in blue said, “Yeah! Little Brother, you need to work hard! I’m the youngest here right now, and I’m getting bullied!”

Jiang Wuya said, “Looks like our anti-Martial Alliance team is getting stronger. Plus, he’s a Dragon Warrior like Yue’er! It’s a pity that Xiao Chen doesn’t like to be tied down and isn’t willing to team up with us. If he were here, we would be even stronger.

Long Chen knew that Xiao Chen was the other Long Chen, who was ranked third on the Bounty Board. He was probably even stronger than Jiang Wuya.

Long Chen was filled with gratitude to them. “Thank you all so much for saving me and taking me in. I will never forget this!”

This meant that he had decided to go with them. At least, Long Yue had already promised to clear all the hidden damage done to his body, and Long Chen needed some time to recover his strength. Their protection was what he needed most.

The five of them smiled when they heard him, while Long Yue’s face remained difficult to see. However, Long Chen saw joy in her eyes. Perhaps she felt the sense of familiarity in him too.

“Your name is Long Chen; Yue’er’s brother is also Long Chen. We call him ‘Xiao Chen’ though. As for you, we will call you by your name for now. After you have passed our test, we will call you ‘Seventh Brother.’”

The corners of Jiang Wuya’s mouth curled upwards. He paused, then he said, “Let us introduce ourselves. I am Jiang Wuya. Out of the six of us, I am the oldest, though they call me ‘Second Brother’ because Yue’er is the boss here. I am at the Second Earthly Martial Stage, while Yue’er is at the Third Earthly Martial Stage.”

Long Chen nodded. He already knew both their names, though this was his first time learning of their cultivation levels.

The rest of them began their self-introductions.

First was the man in long, white robes. He had been silent since the beginning and did not smile often. He was also very handsome and his features were sharp, like they were carved with a blade. He had a tall nose, and a cold sword light glinted in his eyes.

His most outstanding feature was his full head of long, white hair, including white eyebrows. They were a pure white that was easy on the eyes.

Long Chen sensed a terrifying Sword Qi radiating from his body.

He guessed that this person was a Sword Warrior.
