Chapter 563: Huangfu Fengchen



The people in front of Long Chen were divided into four teams. He walked up to Long Yue’s side, who gave a slight nod when she saw him, then she continued watching the bronze door intently.

Long Chen’s gaze fell on another person.

There were four teams here. Long Yue, the Ancient Demon Domain, and the Martial Alliance formed one group each. The other team also only consisted of one person, and the Ancient Demon Domain and Martial Alliance members were glaring at this man with seething hatred.

The man was wearing long, yellow robes embroidered with blooming daisies. He was likely almost the same age as Long Yue, in his thirties at most. The only way to describe how he looked was handsome and sophisticated, but not controlled by anyone. He wore a smirk and an expression that said he did not respect anyone present. Despite the glares, he was smiling at them, which infuriated everyone.

“He is the strongest member of the Huangfu family, as well as the patriarch, Huangfu Fengchen. The fake Red Emperor Seal was his doing,” Long Yue whispered when she saw that Long Chen was looking at Huangfu Fengchen.

Long Chen understood.

The fact that this man dared to stand here alone like Long Yue showed that his cultivation level was high. Only the patriarch of the Huangfu family would be both bold and strong enough to do this. Had this man really single-handedly caused that whole commotion before? Long Chen was speechless. The way Huangfu Fengchen had played the whole crowd with a fake Red Emperor Seal was very impressive.

If the Martial Alliance and Ancient Demon Domain members were not focused on the bronze door, they would have attacked Huangfu Fengchen in fury.

Long Chen was ignored. He did not have any positive feelings about Huangfu Fengchen based on his first impression, but he wondered if he was Huangfu Qi’s father. Perhaps she had gotten her crazy personality from him.

While Long Chen was studying Huangfu Fengchen, the latter was also studying Long Chen. After a while, he broke into a chuckle and said, “Hey, kid, my darling daughter misses you. When are you coming to visit the Huangfu residence?”

Indeed, he was Huangfu Qi’s father.

Long Chen guessed that he had always kept his daughter hidden, keeping her a secret from the world. That was why no one guessed that she was his daughter when she ran to the Ancient Demon Domain.

“I’ll definitely visit when I have the time,” Long Chen said with a nod. He was not familiar with Huangfu Fengchen and did not know how the relationship between him and Long Yue was, so he kept his distance.

When he heard Long Chen’s response, Huangfu Fengchen smiled and said, “Don’t be such a stranger, kid. My daughter calls you ‘Big Brother’ and treats you like a real brother. She’s always talking about you! Since you’re her brother, you don’t need to be so formal with me. You may even see me as your father.”

Long Chen almost choked on his spit.

Huangfu Fengchen was indeed a little crazy.

That was some strange logic! Since his daughter called him “Big Brother,” Long Chen was now his son. Long Chen did not know how to respond, so he said, “In that case, I’ll just call you ‘Uncle.’”

He would not get into trouble for this, and he could even build a relationship with Huangfu Fengchen. Although Long Chen had Long Yue protecting him, he would benefit from additional protection from Huangfu Fengchen.

Many people could read between the lines. Although it sounded like he was joking, he was trying to close the distance between himself and Long Chen. It was a warning to the rest. He had called himself Long Chen’s father, meaning that if other people touched Long Chen, they’d be slapping Huangfu Fengchen in the face! If he wanted to defend Long Chen, no one could object.

Everyone present knew that perhaps due to his daughter, Huangfu Fengchen seemed to intend to protect Long Chen. Those who wanted to attack Long Chen were forced to consider if they could afford to offend Huangfu Fengchen.

However, Long Yue rolled her eyes after Long Chen spoke.

Long Chen suddenly had a bizarre realization. Long Chen, Long Yue, and the rest all called themselves brothers and sisters. Since he called Huangfu Fengchen “Uncle,” didn’t that put Long Yue one generation beneath Huangfu Fengchen?

Huangfu Fengchen laughed.

Long Chen had fallen into his trap. Huangfu Fengchen looked at Long Yue smugly.

But she ignored him.

Everyone was staring at the door nervously. They had already tried, and attacking it was useless. There had already been one death. If someone like Long Yue did not dare act recklessly, everyone else was even more cautious.

All they could do was wait.

Huangfu Fengchen was clearly a Third Earthly Martial Stage cultivator. Including him, there was a total of four Third Earthly Martial Stage cultivators present.

Long Chen waited for a while. While everyone was thinking of a solution, sparks appeared in front of the door. They danced around and slowly morphed into several characters.

Just like the sign above, the characters looked ancient. Long Chen guessed that they were from the Middle Ages.

Only five may enter, or the realm will collapse

After the sparks formed those words, they disappeared immediately.

“Only five?” They were all momentarily at a loss. If six people entered, the realm would collapse, bringing the Red Emperor Seal down with it and possibly trapping the people inside too. The four masters present were top-ranked leaders in the Divine Martial Empire. If they all died, many people would also end up in tragedy.

Therefore, they did not dare act recklessly.

The four of them looked at each other, and very soon, a fair solution was proposed. Yang Ningfeng said, “There are four factions present, but there will be one spot left. It doesn’t matter who takes the spot, since everyone else would be unhappy, right? So only four of us should go.”

Time was running out. Yang Ningfeng wanted the Martial Alliance to send two people, but he knew that no one would ever agree to it.

Huangfu Fengchen was the first to agree, seeing as he had come alone. Long Yue looked at Long Chen, then she agreed. With Long Chen’s strength, he probably wouldn’t get the Red Emperor Seal from the three masters.

Since three of them had agreed, Jiang Wuxie had no choice but to agree too.

“Long Chen, after I enter, they will surely attack you. Just use your escape technique to leave and look for Wuya and the rest,” Long Yue instructed.

Long Chen nodded. When Jiang Wuya left, he had told Long Chen where they were headed. Only Long Chen could easily find them.

But was he really going to leave just like that?

Long Chen was unwilling.

Only five may enter. So far, four people are going in …

Long Chen’s mind raced as he watched the bronze door.

There was a loud creak—the bronze door was slowly opening! No one dared to move, so they could only wait. When the door was completely open, they realized that roaring flames were burning on the inside.

The four of them took several steps forward, looking at each other. No one dared do anything rash, especially the Demon and Martial Emperors. They were older and more cautious.

“You cowards.” Huangfu Fengchen glanced at those two with contempt, then he slipped into the flames. The roaring flames rippled like the surface of a lake. Huangfu Fengchen had disappeared.

“So it’s an optical illusion.” Soon after Huangfu Fengchen entered, Long Yue followed suit. The two emperors locked eyes and fought to rush in too.

When they had passed through the bronze door, they realized they were all standing in a cave. They all looked at each other cautiously, then stood farther away from each other.

They studied the cave. To their confusion, it was a sealed cave with no exit. The only exit was through the bronze door.

The bronze door had not closed, and they could see the outside clearly despite the fact that the roaring flames had blocked the vision when they were outside.

“Only five may enter. Is it possible that we need exactly five people? Since there are only four of us, maybe the door won’t close and a new path won’t open up until the fifth person enters?” said Long Yue.

Everyone thought that made sense. If not, how could they explain this situation? They were all trapped inside a cave, and this was a miniverse. They did not even know how to exit.

After some thought, the Martial Emperor and the Demon Emperors panicked. The fifth person had to be a member of one of their teams, but the problem was that their voices could not travel out of the miniverse. They would have to wait until the people outside come to the same conclusion! The first person to figure out that five people were required would be the fifth.

The four of them looked outwards.

Long Chen had made his decision as soon as they entered.

The moment Long Yue left, the Martial Alliance and Ancient Demon Domain members all looked at him.

He had killed Martial Alliance members before and had even held Jiang Wushang hostage. Both factions had plenty of reasons to kill him.

“Do you guys intend to kill me? Unfortunately, you’re not capable of doing that.”

He was not nervous at all. There were four Second Earthly Martial Stage cultivators present; did he really think he could escape unscathed?

There were two Demon Saints present; one was caring for Jiang Wushang while the other took several steps forward and said to the Martial Alliance, “Brothers of the Martial Alliance. This brat hurt my Young Master, so I must kill him.”

“He killed my good friend, the Void Martial Saint! I must be the one to kill him!” said someone from the Martial Alliance indignantly.

It was comical that they were fighting over who would get to kill him. Long Chen had no patience to argue, so he said, “Stop bickering, you old farts! Why don’t I just fight everyone at the same time?”

“This kid is bold! He has a death wish!”
