"Yang Xueqing, your opponent is me!"

Bai Zhanfeng's fierce roar instantly woke Yang Xueqing from her daze. Although she was fighting Bai Zhanfeng, her thoughts were on Long Chen.

Today, Long Chen had given her too many shocks, and the conspiracy of the Bai family had made her completely lose hope in them, gradually melting the heart she had once frozen towards Long Chen.

At this moment, this young man had already taken an important place in her heart.

When Bai Zhanxiong used his strongest move, the Nine Turns of the Netherworld, against Long Chen, Yang Xueqing's face changed instantly!

Even she, Yang Xueqing, might not be able to withstand Bai Zhanxiong's move, let alone Long Chen, who was only at the sixth level of the Dragon Vein Realm?

Yang Xueqing was extremely anxious, but Bai Zhanfeng was like a fly that couldn't be driven away, always blocking her path. Because she was always paying attention to Long Chen's situation, she almost fell for Bai Zhanfeng's moves several times!

It should be noted that the three members of the Bai family at the eighth level of the Dragon Vein Realm were not much different in strength. Bai Zhanfeng was no less powerful than Bai Zhanxiong. If Yang Xueqing didn't use her full strength against him, she might get injured or even die.

When the old patriarch of the Yang family saw Bai Zhanxiong shamelessly use the Nine Turns of the Netherworld against Long Chen, his eyes were filled with anxiety. At that moment, the head of the Bai family blocked him and laughed, "Yang Cangqiong, you are truly unfortunate. You had a remarkable genius among your descendants, but he was poisoned by your own family and sent to my Bai family, dying at the hands of my son, Bai Zhanxiong, an eighth-level Dragon Vein Realm warrior. That's his luck!"

"Rubbish!"

The old patriarch of the Yang family fought angrily with the head of the Bai family, but he was equally matched and had no way to rescue Long Chen.

On this side, Yang Qingxuan was also being restrained by Bai Zhanlong!

However, Long Chen's Grand玄Dragon Seal had already formed, and the stable and powerful attack made everyone praise him. For someone of his age and strength, using the Grand玄Dragon Seal completely was something others couldn't even dream of.

Nine divine dragon images suddenly spun into a powerful energy, colliding with Bai Zhanxiong's Nine Turns of the Netherworld. Bai Zhanxiong's move was many times stronger than Bai Shichen's. The last time, the Grand玄Dragon Seal easily broke through the Nine Turns of the Netherworld, but this time, the situation was completely reversed!

Bai Zhanxiong's true qi was dozens of times stronger than Long Chen's. Even using combat techniques, the foundation was true qi. Long Chen was far inferior to Bai Zhanxiong in true qi, and even with the Grand玄Dragon Seal, he was now retreating step by step!

The surging power gradually extinguished Long Chen's Grand玄Dragon Seal, and the aftermath crashed into Long Chen's body. He felt as if he had been struck by lightning, like being hit by a mountain. He spat out a mouthful of blood and fell like a broken kite!

"Chen'er!"

Shouts of alarm immediately rang out. The old patriarch of the Yang family and Yang Xueqing's faces turned ashen, and they attacked their opponents with all their might, creating a more powerful momentum than the battle between Long Chen and Bai Zhanxiong!

Yang Qingxuan, who had wanted to rescue Long Chen, was also blocked by Bai Zhanlong, and two more eighth-level Dragon Vein Realm experts were now fighting in the arena!

For the two major powers of Baiyang Town, the other forces could only look at each other helplessly. Their strongest families had only one eighth-level Dragon Vein Realm expert, so how could they participate in the peak battle of Baiyang Town!

"Chen'er!"

This shout made Long Chen slightly more conscious. He recognized Yang Xueqing's voice, which he had never heard before, filled with concern and even a familiar term of endearment. Although his bones felt like they were shattered and his internal organs were injured, it wasn't as severe as Bai Shichen's, but it was still very difficult to get up.

But when he heard those two words, Long Chen felt an endless surge of strength. He growled and began to crawl up from the ground!

Despite the difficulty and the pain that made his body convulse, he was determined to stand up like a man in front of everyone, especially when she was showing concern for him for the first time.

When he finally stood up, swaying on his feet, Long Chen's vision was blurry, but he could still see the woman looking at him with anxiety and heartbreak. She was in danger from Bai Zhanfeng's attacks, but her eyes were still on him.

Seeing this, Long Chen felt an immense sense of pride. He knew that through his efforts, he had finally won her recognition, not only for himself but also for his father!

In Yang Xueqing's mind, Bai Zhanxiong and his sons had always been so excellent, while Long Chen and Long Qinglan were so incapable. But today, seeing the pain in Yang Xueqing's eyes, he knew he had won.

Now, in Yang Xueqing's mind, Bai Zhanxiong and his sons were the failures, and he, Long Chen, was the world-defying genius!

"Father, why am I feeling so good now? Is it just because I've vented my anger..."

Looking at the woman who was desperately trying to break through the obstacles to rescue him, Long Chen suddenly felt his eyes moisten. At that moment, Ling Xi's anxious voice came, "Damn it, you're already injured, and you still won't let me help you?"

Dealing with a strong opponent like Bai Zhanxiong, Ling Xi's help could indeed save him, but after saving him, she would likely die.

Long Chen absolutely wouldn't allow that to happen, so he coldly said, "Ling Xi, you'd better not meddle. Don't make me hate you!"

Long Chen's harsh words hurt Ling Xi's heart, but he was actually doing it for her own good.

Ling Xi, who had originally wanted to help, felt so wronged that she wanted to cry, and she had already cursed Long Chen a thousand times in her heart.

At this moment, Bai Zhanxiong was already standing in front of Long Chen. He looked at the struggling Yang Xueqing and then at Long Chen, and sneered, "The affection between you and your mother is truly touching, but I wonder what her expression will be when she sees me kill you right in front of her?"

From today's situation, Long Chen had a rough idea that his end was near.

He could still deal with Bai Shichen, but Bai Zhanxiong was over twenty years older, and such a large gap was something Long Chen couldn't make up.

Seeing Yang Xueqing fighting so hard for him, Long Chen was already very satisfied.

On the Yang family side, Yang Yuntian was already blaming himself, and the other Yang family members looked at him with worry and admiration. He had come from being a despised playboy to this point, which was a testament to his character.

The biggest regret of his life was Long Qinglan. The mysteries surrounding Long Qinglan and Long Yu remained unsolved.

Thinking of Ling Xi, Long Chen could only hope that after his death, someone would still find the herbs to nurture her divine soul.

Looking at Bai Zhanxiong coldly, Long Chen had no intention of dying. He remained composed and said, "You can defeat me, but there's nothing to boast about. Today, I've already won, not only against your useless son but also against you. I know you were defeated by my father, and today, you are my defeated opponent. What's there to boast about?"

Mentioning Long Qinglan, Bai Zhanxiong's eyes turned fierce, and he sneered, "Are you saying I lost to that waste? It seems you don't know how that waste died..."

Bai Zhanxiong's words made Long Chen's pupils constrict. Although his mind was already unclear, his eyes seemed to turn into sharp blades, piercing Bai Zhanxiong.

Bai Zhanxiong laughed maniacally and then whispered, "I heard that some wastes were addicted to alcohol. I just put a little something in it, and then I could marry his wife."

Bai Zhanxiong's words were like a bolt of lightning to Long Chen!

He had never thought about this before because Long Qinglan was a very clear-headed person. He didn't mention why he suddenly died before his death, and Long Chen had forgotten about it, only finding it strange that his father's death was so unusual!

Long Qinglan's face was black before he died, a clear sign of poisoning, and only he, the fool, hadn't noticed it!

Thinking about everything now, Long Chen suddenly realized that Long Qinglan's death was actually caused by Bai Zhanxiong. No wonder Bai Zhanxiong appeared at the Yang family right after Long Qinglan's death and started planning the marriage!

Staring at Bai Zhanxiong, seeing his smug smile and the疯狂blood in his eyes, the blood in Long Chen's eyes began to surge, and it never receded. His black pupils turned completely blood red!

A desolate and bloody aura gradually emanated from Long Chen.

"Is that so? So you were the one who made my father die prematurely?"

This truth made Long Chen's blood boil, and he felt his heart convulse. The blood-red dragon shadows that had disappeared from his body began to reappear due to his anger, and in that moment, his entire body became a dragon's lair!

Endless blood dragons intertwined within his body!

Bai Zhanxiong first sensed that something was wrong with Long Chen, but he thought it was just anger. He enjoyed seeing the hatred in Long Chen's eyes, knowing that Long Chen was powerless against him.

"Actually, he should have died long ago. I was being merciful by letting him die then. You should have died too, but there was a small accident. I thought you were just a playboy, and anyone could kill you, but you turned out to be quite resilient, surviving until today. But after today, you can reunite with your useless father. I am such a merciful person!"

Looking at him, Long Chen said nothing.

"Father, if you had told me earlier, I would have worked twice as hard and wouldn't have let this grandson live until today!"

"Even if you don't care about your own life, I do, Bai Zhanxiong..."

Towering anger surged in Long Chen like a tidal wave. Seeing Bai Zhanxiong's猖狂smile, the blood in Long Chen's body grew heavier, almost bursting him!

At that moment, the mysterious Dragon Jade suddenly vibrated, and the inherited essence blood was once again drawn to it!
