Dragon War God

Chapter 586 – Death of the Battle Emperor

After Xiaolang let out all his excitement with a single howl, he finally stopped. He started off looking fierce, but when he saw Long Chen, his eyes returned to their pure, innocent state, even with a hint of shyness.

Xiaolang had shown the wildness in his heart with that howl.

In reality, he had always allowed Long Chen to make the decisions throughout their time together. Long Chen never had a younger brother, but Xiaolang basically was one. Although he was not talkative and was a little shy, there was fiery passion in his heart!

Long Chen still remembered what the Yang Patriarch had said to him in Baiyang Town.

When you have a brother, you must be clear about what is in his heart; you must know if his heart is filled with passion or poison!

My heart is filled with passion!

Looking at Long Chen, Xiaolang gently shook his body. A wave of flames quickly blew across his body, and then his gigantic body vanished. What remained was a beautiful teenager with waterfall-like hair, who stood bare-footed on the black ice!

Yes. When it came to Mo Xiaolang’s looks, Long Chen could only use the word “beautiful” to describe him.

The more Long Chen cultivated, the stronger the Yang energy in his body became. Perhaps due to the influence of the Ancient Bloodsoul Dragon, he had lost his prodigal-son energy and ended up becoming dark and intimidating like a blood-red flame.

On the other hand, perhaps due to the influence of the Nine Devils Ancestral Fire, Xiaolang leaned more towards Yin, graceful and pure. However, he still had endless killing intent deep inside!

It had been a long time. Long Chen finally saw the purity he first saw in Xiaolang, which felt like clear lake water. Xiaolang’s hair was quite long now, and despite having become a Sun Devouring Wolf, his looks had not changed. Compared to Long Chen, Xiaolang was slightly thinner and his skin was much fairer. In fact, he had better skin than many girls. His fingers were fair and slender, his features were clean ... He was ... beautiful.

Right when he turned human, Xiaolang’s eyes were still two black flames, which gradually disappeared to reveal two bright, black but pure pupils.

He was exactly the same as before.

The only difference was the faint hint of Demonic Qi radiating from his body, perhaps because he was now a demonic beast. Those who were more capable could tell that he was not a human, but a demonic beast after sensing his aura.

Or rather, he was a member of the demon race.

Long Chen did not know how to describe what he felt. He wondered if he should give Xiaolang a hug and maybe cry out, “Brother!” or something similar, but he gave up after some thought. He had a lot to say, but it all amounted to, “Hey, how are you still better-looking than me?”

Xiaolang shook his head shyly when he heard Long Chen, then he tried to move his new body. There was a clear lake not far away, so he hurried over to it to take a good look at himself. After a long time, he finally cried with joy, “Big ... Big Brother! I ... I still look ... exactly the same.”

He hadn’t spoken using the language of beasts, but with his mouth.

“Why are you stuttering?” Long Chen was a little speechless.

Long Chen had always been open when communicating with Xiaolang. But now that Xiaolang had a human body, he suddenly felt awkward talking to him.

However, he was still in a great mood.

“I ... I’ve just regained my human form ... I ... I’m not used to it yet ... It’ll ... It’ll get better with time,” said Mo Xiaolang with a shy smile. His expression was so innocent that it was purer than sunlight.

He looked around, then he examined his body, hands, and feet. In the end, he sighed. “It’s been a long time since I’ve felt like this ...”

After a few sentences, his speech became much smoother.

He had always known how to talk; it had just been a long time since he formulated words.

Looking at the teenager, Long Chen pursed his lips and gazed at him solemnly. He truly felt like he was Xiaolang’s older brother. There were many things he had to do for Mo Xiaolang, and he could not keep letting Xiaolang work for him.

During this journey, Long Chen had been chasing after his goal of meeting Ling Xi, but Xiaolang had only been an occasional side character. It was only when Xiaolang appeared in front of him in human form that Long Chen felt like he had been an irresponsible brother.

“Xiaolang, I’m sorry,” Long Chen said sincerely, patting Mo Xiaolang’s shoulder.

“Big Brother, why are you saying that?” Mo Xiaolang asked, confused.

“Nothing. Forget it, my good brother! Can you fight with this body?” Long Chen grinned and tossed the guilt away.

There was no need for draggy feelings between brothers. If he had made a mistake, all he could do was do better in the future.

“As a King-tier beast, my human body doesn’t have much combat abilities. To most beasts, the human body is a burden. If I want to fight, I have to return to the Sun Devouring Wolf form. Once I reach the Emperor-tier, or maybe the Divine-tier, my human body will be powerful, though not as strong as my original form,” said Mo Xiaolang, resigned.

“That’s fine. Just be like this from now on. Don’t go into the Primordial Realm anymore. We’ll explore the world as brothers! If we need to fight, you can turn into the Sun Devouring Wolf then.” Long Chen did not mind. He had already started to treat Xiaolang as a demonic beast.

He was a brother, not a demonic beast! Long Chen felt like it was an insult to Xiaolang to make him stay in the Primordial Realm.

Mo Xiaolang understood what Long Chen was thinking, so he smiled and said, “Big Brother, I actually think the Primordial Realm is great. I’m quite lazy these days and I like sleeping there. When I’m in deep sleep, I slowly grow stronger too. After becoming a demonic beast, my habits have changed. We brothers don’t have to worry about things like that, right?”

He looked at Long Chen gratefully and continued, “Thank you so much for taking care of me. If it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t have consumed so many things. You can even say that I’m only here today because of you! You have shown me so much kindness! I will follow you for the rest of my life, and we will fight side by side in all battles! If you want to go look for Sister Ling Xi, I will help. Then we’ll show them just how powerful we are!”

“Good, good!”

“Brothers for life!”

“Mhm.”

Passions ran high as they made proud promises.

No one knew what the future held, but with two brothers side by side, what was there to be afraid of?

Long Chen knew that he would not be lonely on this journey!

“Hey, hey! How could you guys forget about me, Master Cat? I have saved your lives and given you a lot of help!” cried the lonely Little Cat in the Primordial Realm.

Long Chen obviously would never forget about Little Cat. Although he was annoying, he had a good heart. He had explained many things that Long Chen did not understand and offered a lot of help.

“I haven’t forgotten about you, of course! Little Cat, if you perform well on this journey with us, I don’t mind calling you our brother too! Haha!” Long Chen said.

“Tsk! Do you think Master Cat cares about two brats? Years ago, people like you two weren’t even fit to carry my shoes!” Little Cat said smugly.

Long Chen and Mo Xiaolang locked eyes and grinned.

“Come, let’s go to the Battle clan!” Long Chen did not dwell further.

It was a good thing that Xiaolang had become a King-tier beast before arriving at the Battle clan. Long Chen knew that although Xiaolang was only at the Category One King-tier, the Nine Devils Ancestral Fire and his other impressive abilities made him a great asset in battle!

Long Chen knew that if he had to face the Nine Devils Ancestral Fire face-on, his survival was not guaranteed!

There was no need to drag emotional conversations between brothers.

Very soon, Long Chen arrived in front of a small city in the northern region. Before this, Long Yue had taught him how to send a message to the Red Souls. Long Chen knew that there were Red Souls members in this small city, so he used that method to call for someone. It turned out to be a thin teenager in a hotel busboy’s outfit.

“Greetings, Seventh Master,” the teenager said hurriedly when he saw Long Chen.

Long Chen rubbed his nose, unsure of when he had been coined as “Seventh Master.” He grinned and said, “How far is this place from the Northern Battle clan?”

The teenager pointed in a direction and said, “If you travel in that direction for twenty-five kilometers, you will arrive at the Northern Battle clan’s territory. Second Master and the others are there. The moment you arrive, someone will greet you.”

Long Chen nodded and said, “That’s good. I understand. Right, do you have any news about the Battle clan?”

“There is major news,” said the teenager nervously.

“Tell me,” Long Chen said with furrowed brows.

“The Battle Emperor of the Battle clan, due to severe injuries, has passed away. Now the head of the Battle clan is the First Prince, Lei Zhen. Second Master and the others assisted Lei Zhen, so he had a stable ascension. Since there are enemies on their doorstep, they quickly united all the clan members and are prepared to fight the Martial Alliance!”

“The old Battle Emperor has died, and Fourth Brother has become the clan leader?” Long Chen muttered to himself.

“Yes, but there’s one more thing. Yesterday, Yang Ningfeng, a few Martial Saints, and at least ten Martial Kings entered the Battle clan’s territory. They emerged not long after. We don’t know what exactly has happened at this point; perhaps you’ll only know when you arrive, Seventh Master. However, the Martial Alliance has completely sealed the Battle clan’s territory, so you must be careful when going in.”

Long Chen nodded. “Alright, you may go back.”

“Alright.” The teenager quickly left.

“Big Brother, there are two Martial Emperors there. Will we be able to defeat them?” asked Mo Xiaolang.

“In the face of a strong enemy, all we can do is fight bravely. Turning back is not an option. Those guys have helped me before, and they are my siblings. They’re also your siblings. We can’t only live for ourselves. If I can die fighting for my brother, I will die without regrets,” said Long Chen, squinting as he stared in the direction of the Battle clan.

“I understand,” said Mo Xiaolang with a smile, revealing his bright, white teeth.

“Don’t you pretend to be cute!” Long Chen scolded him.

Then they headed for the Battle clan!
