Long Chen rolled around in embarrassment for a few times, and then looked up. After being avoided by Long Chen, the arrow shot directly into Huang Shang's thigh.
At this time, Huang Shang opened his mouth wide, and his eyes had lost their luster, just like a pair of dead fish eyes, staring blankly at the sky.
A strong fishy smell spread from Huang Shang's thighs. Although Long Chen controlled his breathing for the first time, he still felt dizzy and bloated, with chest tightness and nausea.
"What a powerful poison"
Long Chen was horrified. The arrow was clearly contaminated with poison, although based on the smell alone, Long Chen couldn't tell exactly what kind of poison it was.
However, its intensity must be brewed from the venom of third-level monsters and above. Anyone below the blood coagulation level will die immediately.
"shameless"
Hearing an angry shout from Master Yunqi, he stretched out his big hand and fired a flaming spear about ten feet long at Wei Cang.
Wei Cang couldn't help being a little shocked when he saw that Long Chen had actually dodged his attack. Seeing Yun Qi's attack, he hurriedly took back the lightweight hand crossbow in his hand, from where the poisonous arrow just came out.
"boom"
Wei Cang also stretched out his hand to summon a flaming sword, which he placed heavily on Wei Cang's spear. There was an explosion, flames splashed out, and boundless heat waves surged to all sides.
Long Chen was the closest, only a dozen feet away. Long Chen, who was already weak, was immediately blown away by the air wave.
Just when Long Chen thought he was about to be thrown into a gourd, suddenly a soft and fragrant body pressed tightly behind him, and his nose was filled with the fragrance of virginity.
"Chu Yao"
Long Chen looked back and saw Chu Yao looking at him with concern. He was lying in Chu Yao's arms.
"Long Chen... I'm sorry, it was me who hurt you."
Chu Yao let out a soft cry, tears flowing down like broken pearls. She knew that Long Chen ended up like this mostly because of her.
If it hadn't been for what she did today, Long Chen might not be like this. He almost lost his life several times just now. Thinking about it, he felt sad in his heart.
"What are you talking about? That bastard Xia Changfeng has long disliked me. This matter has nothing to do with you," Long Chen comforted.
He wanted to stand up, but there was no strength in his body. Leaning in Chu Yao's arms, Long Chen couldn't help but his heart beat wildly.
"Long Chen, thank you." Chu Yao knew that Long Chen was deliberately comforting herself, and she couldn't help but feel touched and ashamed.
"boom"
There was another explosion, which knocked away the charm rising in Long Chen's heart, and Long Chen hurriedly looked towards the sound.
At this time, Master Yunqi had a spear condensed by Dan Fire in his hand, which had reached more than three feet in length. The whole body was red, the air was scorching, and the power was overwhelming.
That is an ability that only alchemists can have - elixir fire transformation. Alchemists don't like to fight, but it doesn't mean that they are not strong in combat.
The alchemist's lifelong cultivation has been concentrated on the alchemy fire. Not only can he refine elixirs, but he can also use them in battles, which are far more powerful than those of the same level.
Wei Cang's face was extremely serious. Long Chen could see that although Wei Cang was also an alchemy master and had powerful alchemy fire, when it came to purity, he was more than a step behind Master Yun Qi.
Long Chen wanted to taunt Wei Cang, but he was weak after the battle, and the last blow almost exhausted all his strength, and he didn't even have the strength to shout.
Every time the flame weapons in the hands of Yun Qi and Wei Cang were touched, there would be an explosion, and the ground would shake and billow with air waves, making people unable to bear it and retreating one after another.
Both of them are the presidents of the Alchemist Guild, and their status is respected. Not to mention those young people, even the princes have never seen such a person take action, and they all watched attentively.
"Wei Cang, you have lived for so many years and you are still not making any progress, go away - Flame Dragon Thorn"
Yun Qi shouted loudly, and the spear in his hand suddenly thrust forward. The howling wind cut through the void, shattered the ground, and a dragon-like flame came out from his body.
Wei Cang also shouted loudly when he saw this, and the long sword in his hand turned into a giant shield, blocking the front.
"boom"
The explosion shook the sky, and the dust and flames billowed, as if the air had been ignited, making it impossible to breathe.
"Yunqi, just wait for me."
Suddenly, a figure flew out of the flames and ran away in a panic. That person was Wei Cang. He left a word and disappeared into the night.
As if he had expected this result, Master Yunqi glanced coldly in the direction Wei Cang left, then slowly turned around and returned to his seat.
For a moment, the whole place was silent. People looked at Long Chen who was being supported by Chu Yao, and then at Xia Changfeng who had a pale face. They couldn't say a word for a while.
The Queen Mother didn't look very good either. What happened today was completely beyond her expectation. She, the leader of the Fengming Empire, was reduced to a supporting role.
"Long Chensheng, this year's lantern festival ends here"
The Queen Mother had to announce the result. As soon as the Queen Mother's voice fell, the whole scene suddenly boiled. The girls in the audience rushed towards Long Chen like a tide.
Long Chen was startled. Before he could understand what was going on, a girl put a wreath on Long Chen's head.
Long Chen was stunned. Just as he was about to say something, seven or eight more girls suddenly came up to him. Regardless of whether Long Chen wanted to or not, they put the garland on Long Chen's head like he was tying up a cow.
superior.
Chu Yao stood aside and watched with a smile, without saying a word. Her beautiful eyes were full of teasing, but there was a kind of pride on her pretty face.
"Hello……"
Long Chen's body was already covered with garlands, and there was really no place to hang them. He was just about to tell these enthusiastic girls, but just as he spoke, the sky suddenly darkened, and garlands covered the sky and flew in.
It turned out that some girls saw that there were too many people and couldn't squeeze through. They couldn't help but become anxious and threw the garlands in their hands in front of Long Chen.
One person took the lead, and the other women suddenly understood and followed suit. In an instant, hundreds of garlands flew in. When the crowd dispersed, Long Chen had disappeared and was buried by the garlands.
The Fengming Empire was fond of martial arts, and women expressed their love very directly. Even though they knew that Long Chen had already expressed his love to Chu Yao, it did not affect their admiration for Long Chen at all.
Handsome, powerful, and valuing love and righteousness, for the sake of his beloved, for his brothers, he dares to fight bloody battles with blood-coagulating strong men, and despises life and death. What kind of courage is that? It can be said that Long Chen's performance has touched the ignorant hearts of most girls.
When Long Chen crawled out from the pile of flowers with difficulty, the people around him had dispersed and Chu Yao had disappeared. Only Fatty Yu and others came over and pulled Long Chen out.
"Brother Long, you are simply my idol," Fatty Yu said with excitement.
The others were similar. Long Chen's performance today shocked everyone. Long Chen was simply the reincarnation of the God of War, making them extremely proud.
Long Chen smiled slightly, looked around, and found that the Queen Mother and other princes, ministers, princes, and Master Yunqi had all left, and even Chu Yao was gone.
"Brother Long, when you were buried just now, the third princess was called away by the queen mother. I saw that the queen mother looked very ugly. I'm afraid the third princess will have a hard time in the future." Monkey said with some worry.
Normally, they would not dare to talk about royal matters, but Long Chen's performance today aroused their ambitions, and they no longer have so many worries.
Prince Xia Changfeng of Great Xia came to Fengming this time mainly to propose marriage to the third princess. Although there is no definite news yet, I heard that the Queen Mother has already nodded.
Now the third princess openly showed her kindness to Long Chen at the Lantern Festival, which was like slapping the Queen Mother and Xia Changfeng in the face. It is strange that the Queen Mother looks good.
When I was here, I had the support of Master Yunqi, but after all, Master Yunqi is from the Alchemist Guild. It is a neutral force and will never interfere in the affairs of the empire, not to mention that it is a family matter.
Therefore, the worries of Monkey and others are normal. After hearing this, Long Chen's joy of victory suddenly disappeared.
However, Long Chen has no regrets. For a lovely person who confessed his love to him at all costs, he will never let her down even if he dies.
Seeing that the entire square was empty of people, only a few soldiers were dismantling the surrounding decorations and some broken garbage. Huang Shang's body had also been moved away long ago.
"Let's go back first. Shi Feng, how is your injury?" Long Chen stood up with the help of the monkey.
"I'm fine, Long Chen, I..." Shi Feng was a little ashamed. If it hadn't been for him today, Long Chen would never have been fooled, and he almost lost his life.
"Between brothers, there is no need to say useless words. They are brothers. Just heal your wounds, improve your cultivation, and take revenge." Long Chen waved his hand.
"Revenge? Isn't Huang Shang dead?" Fatty Yu said in surprise.
Long Chen smiled slightly and said nothing. Everyone was shocked. Could it be that Long Chen wanted to...?
"Okay, send me and Shi Feng back. We need to recuperate. To be honest, I feel like my bones are about to fall apart now," Long Chen said with a smile.
Everyone hurriedly came up to help Long Chen. In fact, Long Chen's injury was not very serious. The key was that he was out of strength and had no strength at all.
After everyone slowly left, a person slowly appeared in a dark corner. He looked at the direction in which Long Chen and others disappeared, and couldn't help but murmur to himself:
"It's really unexpected that Long Chen has grown to this extent. Could it be that he has been hiding before?"
That person was none other than the fourth prince of the current dynasty. Long Chen's performance today was beyond everyone's expectations, including him.
"If it's true, then this guy has such a deep scheming mind." The fourth prince couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
"Sir, do you want to get rid of him secretly?"
Behind the fourth prince, a shadow stayed in the darkness. If he hadn't made a sound, others would never have noticed him.
"Don't worry. Although he surprised me today, his weaknesses were also exposed. No matter how strong a person is, if he has weaknesses, there is nothing to be afraid of.
Although something unexpected happened, it is not necessarily a bad thing. If we make good use of it, it will bring us unexpected gains." A faint smile appeared on the fourth prince's face.
Long Chen did not go home that day, but asked Monkey to send a message to his family, saying that he was studying with Master Yunqi at the Alchemist Guild.
What happened today was too big. He didn't want to face his mother as soon as he got back. Moreover, his mother would be sad to see the injuries all over his body.
That night, Long Chen went to Shi Feng's house. Shi Feng only suffered a few fractures. As for the injuries to his internal organs, thanks to Long Chen's elixir, they were no longer serious.
A few broken bones only need to be healed for a few days. Although Shi Feng failed miserably this time, it was beneficial to his growth. Strong men need to be tempered.
That night, Shi Feng's father arranged a quiet room for Long Chen. When he returned to Shi Feng's house, Long Chen's strength had recovered somewhat.
Everyone around him was sent away. Long Chen slowly took out a jade bottle from the ring, and there was a scorching wave inside.
