Chapter 729: Strong Enemy
“Little Cat, do you know where the Seven Star Lord Inheritance would be? There’s nothing but blue sand on this planet.” Long Chen was confused.
Little Cat scoffed. “When I was in my prime, I never stooped down this low to look for such a measly inheritance. Also, I used up almost all of my power to revive you in Baiyang Town. I even used some of it again to help you steal the Martial God Tombstone. I’m afraid I can’t help you here.”
Long Chen frowned.
Sometimes those who talk a lot are pretty useless.
Long Chen ignored Little Cat and used Sight constantly to prevent Feng Zhilin and Aunt Snow from entering into his range. He also checked his surroundings to see if there was anything special about this place, in hopes that he would obtain a clue about the inheritance.
He understood that while he had improved a lot, he still couldn’t beat Feng Zhilin. It was best if he could avoid her while searching for the Inheritance. As he checked the area, Feng Zhilin and Aunt Snow entered his range numerous times, but he noticed them immediately and walked into another direction.
Yikes. If they knew that I was here, they would’ve started searching to kill me. There’s no place to hide here. If I were to fight against her, I would need to spend a lot of time recovering.
Long Chen was worried.
He wasn’t afraid of Feng Zhilin, but he had to admit that she was stronger than him now. Aunt Snow was also stronger than him. Long Chen couldn’t even win against one of them, much less two.
While avoiding them, Long Chen continued to search. The planet wasn’t large, and he was certain that he had explored all of it in just half a day. But there was nothing here but blue sand.Where is that inheritance? Long Chen was powerless.
But he knew that he could not be anxious here. If he hadn't found it, Feng Zhilin most likely wouldn't have found it either. Long Chen had spotted them multiple times here, but he quickly avoided them using Sight every time.
I cannot leave since I’m already here. The Inheritance must exist. It’s up to a person’s luck and observation skill to obtain it. I believe I’m stronger than Feng Zhilin in that aspect!
Long Chen was patient. He believed that he could endure hundreds of days if it meant finding that inheritance. He refused to give up!
After all, the inheritance of one of the Seven Lords was not a simple treasure.
He was hopeful. The inheritance of the White Lotus Fairy and the Divine Demon God had allowed the Divine clan and the Demon clan to grow very powerful, so Long Chen knew that the Seven Star Lord’s inheritance wouldn’t be weak!
Long Chen started to search his surroundings again, this time with more care. But he still found nothing but blue sand.
“Could it be underground?” Long Chen frowned.
On the other side of the planet, a lady wearing a white veil was frowning too. Feng Zhilin walked at the front and beside her was Aunt Snow.
“Aunt Snow, we’ve searched this place countless times, but still found nothing. Did we miss something?” Feng Zhilin was impatient.
“The inheritance of the Seven Star Lord is real. Don’t worry, all the people here have been killed by us. We have enough time to find it,” Aunt Snow said patiently. She was not as impatient as Feng Zhilin.
“Is that so?” Feng Zhilin tried to calm down. She understood how important the Seven Star Lord’s inheritance was, so she knew she had to succeed.
“The Martial God Tombstone was stolen from me, causing me to lose an opportunity to allow the Wind clan to become stronger. The inheritance of the Seven Star Lord is just one step away from me. I need to obtain it. With it, the Wind clan can become powerful and escape the Divine clan’s clutches. I will then become the Wind clan’s most famous person!”
She suppressed her excited heart and continued to search. They were more efficient with two people searching the area.
“Aunt Snow, I had a bad feeling for some reason. Do you think I will fail to obtain the inheritance? This is the chance for the Wind clan to become strong!” Feng Zhilin suddenly said.
“Stop thinking like that. You will obtain it. You are the hope of the Wind clan!” Aunt Snow pampered her.
Feng Zhilin nodded.
The two of them continued searching the area until they reached the spot where they first arrived on the planet. They had initially waited here and killed the four people that came after them. They wanted to wait for the final person, but because no one appeared for a very long time, they decided to leave and search the planet.
But they never thought they would fail to find anything even after two hours had passed.
“That’s strange. There should be one more person, but they are not here yet.” Aunt Snow and Feng Zhilin were uncertain. The planet was small, so it was highly likely that they would meet the last person while they searched. However, they had met no one.
They didn’t understand why.
When they passed by the corpses, Feng Zhilin stopped. She sensed an aura of massacre on one of the corpses.
“What’s wrong, young mistress?” Aunt Snow asked.
Feng Zhilin didn’t answer. She suddenly tore open one of the corpse’s clothes, revealing a bloody handprint on the chest!
“This injury wasn’t left by us. We don’t use palm strikes. Someone’s here, and they killed this person,” Feng Zhilin said coldly.
“Oh? So the last person is here and even managed to hide from us?”
“Aunt Snow!” Feng Zhilin suddenly shouted.
“What’s wrong?” Aunt Snow was confused by Feng Zhilin’s reaction. Feng Zhilin was snarling, yet she looked excited. Aunt Snow knew that Feng Zhilin was weird sometimes and was interested in seeing what she would say.
“Long Chen! This must be Long Chen! I won’t forget his aura even if I die! It must be him! This palm strike was left behind by him. He took the final spot to enter this place! He’s good at hiding. He most likely knows that we were here, so he is hiding while searching for the inheritance.”
Feng Zhilin was howling softly when she said that. She hated Long Chen deeply. She had never tasted defeat once in her life. Long Chen was the first person who had given her that feeling. Long Chen, the weak cultivator, had stolen her Martial God Tombstone.
She had one of the highest statuses out of the billions of people in the Ten Thousand Nations Territory. She was an elite even amidst those in the nine clans. She would never tolerate a defeat in Long Chen’s hands.
“Impossible. I don’t think the odds of it being him are high, young mistress. Are you mistaking it for someone else? You want revenge on Long Chen so bad that you are seeing things wrong here. Didn’t he escape using the Profound Golden Soul? Do you think he’s foolish enough to come here even though we’re here?”
“No. He’s brave and foolish. If he wasn’t, he wouldn’t have thought of stealing my Martial God Tombstone.” Feng Zhilin stood up and smiled.
The wind blew her veil up and revealed her beautiful face. Unfortunately, it was seeped in bloodlust.
“If that’s the case, you should be happy. Not only will you get the Seven Star Lord’s inheritance, you can get back the Martial God Tombstone too.” Aunt Snow smiled as well. She was happy because Long Chen was weaker than both of them. She assumed that the reason Long Chen had managed to steal the Martial God Tombstone was all because of luck.
“Don’t underestimate him. We need to kill him first. Only then can we focus on finding the Seven Star Lord’s inheritance. Aunt Snow, listen to me. We need to work together!”
