DRAGON BLOODED WAR GOD

Chapter 437: Castration

Liu Lan could endure no longer. She hated the boy in front of her and wanted to slap him viciously. She looked at him and said, “The man I love is someone who stood tall and created miracles, not a young boy who relied on his father to do stuff. Do you think you deserve me just because you are stronger?”

The only reason she had said that was because she had been forced into a corner. Young Master Hong snapped when he was insulted. He broke the chair, stood up, and pointed at Liu Lan. “You fucking bitch! You are just a withered willow! I gave you some respect because I liked you. I came all the way here to marry you, and yet you dare to refuse me? What a joke! Vermillion Bird Patriarch! Is this how you work? Looks like the Hong family’s relationship with the Lingwu family will no longer exist! Just wait, what I will bring in ten days is a group of experts instead of a dowry. Bitch, do you think you can escape me? I will have you underneath me in ten days regardless!”

Young Master Hong glared at everyone before leaving angrily.

The Patriarch and Liu Yuan were shocked. After the deaths of two Patriarchs, the Lingwu family was falling into ruins. If the Hong family came after them, the Lingwu family would be wiped out.

“Father, I’m sorry …” Liu Lan wasn’t sure what to do. She had caused the death of the Lingwu family. She realized how powerless she was and regretted it. That was when she suddenly recalled the man that had taken advantage of her one night on Nine Devils Mountain, causing her to cry and leaving her unable to walk properly for a few days …

Reminiscence and love appeared in her heart.

But she knew that her feelings for Long Chen didn’t matter when he wasn’t here. Everything was over. The Lingwu family was done for because of her, and she could only commit suicide to make amends. Even if it did nothing for the family, she refused to surrender herself to that boy.

Before dying, Liu Lan thought about a lot of things, but her most vivid memory was about that proud, young boy. She regretted it. If time could rewind, she would choose to love him instead of pressuring him.

Long Chen, I hope you don’t hate me anymore. I was selfish and arrogant, but now I know how powerless I was. I can’t even control my life …

Liu Lan stared with widened eyes as Young Master Hong was dragged back inside by a youth. To think that a Second River Stage cultivator would be so helpless!

Bam!

Young Master Hong was thrown onto the ground. He was shocked, but he was fearless because of his background. “You brat! Tell me your name! How dare you touch me. My father is the mayor of Blaze City! He will never let you go. Kneel down and call me ‘grandfather,’ or I will kill you!”

The person who had dragged him was Long Chen.

The three people from Lingwu family were stunned to see Long Chen. Long Chen ignored them as he looked at Young Master Hong. He smiled plainly before stomping on the boy’s crotch and popping something. Young Master Hong let out a shrill cry before he curled his body out of pain. He was sweating and panting from the pain.

“You want me, Long Chen, to call you ‘grandfather?’ Call me ‘grandfather’ instead, or I will step on you once every breath. Starting now.” Long Chen was toying with Young Master Hong.

One breath passed, and Long Chen stomped again. Something broke into smithereens, and Young Master Hong shouted even louder. His body twitched and only two words came to his mind.

“Long Chen” and “grandfather.”

“Grandfather! Grandfather! AHH … Grandfather!” Young Master Hong shouted three times before Long Chen stopped. He kicked Hong one last time to make him unconscious, and the hall was silent again. “You are already castrated and yet you still call me ‘grandfather.’ What a joke.”

He then smiled at the Vermillion Bird Patriarch. “Long time no see. How are you?”

The Patriarch was stunned and her teeth chattered. She couldn’t utter a single word.

Long Chen didn’t want to talk to her either. “Send him back to Blaze City and tell his father. If anyone from his family sets foot inside Yuanling City within a hundred years, I will make sure that the Hong family ceases to exist. Tell him that Long Chen gave the orders,” he said in a calm but unchallenged tone.

“Do you understand?”

“Yes … Yes!”

“Scram.”

“Yes.”

A Second River Stage cultivator was like a child to Long Chen. Rumor had it that he had killed the Ninth River Stage Lin Zichen. It was undoubtedly true, which meant Long Chen could kill the Patriarch with a single wave of his hand. Therefore, Patriarch picked up Hong and ran out.

Now the hall was quiet with just Liu Yuan and Liu Lan. Liu Yuan was in the middle of the two and became embarrassed. “Uuuh … You guys can talk. I will leave now.”

Liu Yuan ran away too. His heart was still beating rapidly because he had learned everything about Long Chen. He knew how strong Long Chen had gotten and knew one day he would be back. That day had arrived, and he had solved a massive crisis for Liu Lan.

Long Chen looked at Liu Lan cheekily. He was certain that the woman would cry when she saw him, but his face froze when he saw her glaring at him with killing intent.

“Long Chen, do you know what you did? If word gets out, I will never be able to get married,” Liu Lan said through gritted teeth.

She loved and hated him. She adored him and yet was still angry at him. Seeing him made her want to release all of her pent-up emotions.

Long Chen had never thought about it from that angle and just realized what he had done. Someone had come to ask for her hand in marriage and he had castrated that man. It was certain that no one else would ever ask Liu Lan to marry them if word got out.

“We are friends, aren’t we? We should help each other. I saw that he was scolding you, so I gave him a warning. Smile! There’s no need to frown when I came all the way here to see you.” Long Chen felt like teasing her.

“Are you sure you are here just to see me?”

“Not really …” He smiled sheepishly.

“Get out.” Liu Lan lowered her head.

“What’s wrong?” Long Chen didn’t know what was happening.

“No need to pity me. Thank you for your help. From here onwards, I don’t want to see you again, nor do I want to talk to you anymore. Goodbye,” Liu Lan said adamantly.

Long Chen was silent. He had a feeling that Liu Lan was struggling with something and knew what she was thinking. She had her pride and used to be stronger than Long Chen, but now she could only be described as pitiful. She didn’t want to show her pitiful side to him, because she really cared about him.

The look in his eyes right now told her that he had grown into a man.

“Go! Don’t come back, please …” Liu Lan almost cried.

Long Chen sighed. “I came here to say goodbye to you. We are technically friends after what we went through. I will be leaving the Cangyang Kingdom and might never return. This might be the last time we meet. Will you chase me away like this?”

Liu Lan wanted him to leave, but she never thought he would leave forever. Her mind went blank.

The last time we will meet?

Long Chen had an important place in her heart, and it wasn’t easy for her to let him go.

Both of them remained silent.

“Weren’t you supposed to fight the Sword Emperor?”

“I already killed him.”

They were silent again.

It was quite some time before Liu Lan sighed. “Let’s go back to the Azure Willow Residence. No matter what, we are friends. Since you are leaving, I should send you off. I want to hear about what you did after you left the Lingwu family.”

Back to the Azure Willow Residence?
