Dragon Blooded War God

Chapter 461: Day of the Nine Suns



Long Chen looked over and saw that she was a ten-year-old girl. She was merely a child with pink cheeks and large eyes. Her skin was fair, and she wore a little yellow coat. There was one shiny silver bracelet on each of her wrists and pink cloth shoes on her feet. When she walked, the bells on her bracelets tinkled just like her melodious giggles, attracting a lot of attention.

This girl is the seedling of a pretty woman! She’s so adorable at such a young age; she’ll definitely be a beauty when she’s older. This was Long Chen’s first thought.

Little Cat was mesmerized the moment it saw the girl, drooling out of its mouth. It cried emotionally, “What … what a pretty girl! She’s exactly my type! Oh no, my mind has been muddled by her beauty! Long Chen, save me! I can’t take it anymore!”

The panicked look on Little Cat’s face made Long Chen speechless.

“You perverted cat! I can’t believe you’re interested in a child! You’re creepy …” Long Chen smiled in exasperation.

Little Cat was so emotional that it stuttered and could not stand on its legs. Its eyes peeked out of Long Chen’s chest as it stared at the girl without even blinking. It chuckled, saying, “She’s top-tier! Top-tier! The heavens are generous to me for giving me such a top-tier gift! My life finally has a purpose.”

“Get out of here. You don’t even have a body, and the girl isn’t even ten yet. Fat Cat, I didn’t know you were a pervert,” said Long Chen.

“You don’t understand! Do you know that love that comes from the soul is forever? She’s not even ten, so nothing is formed yet. She’s like a statue that I can carve. She’s the symbol of purity!” Little Cat still kept on talking.

The girl was walking towards Long Chen, and as she giggled, her canine teeth showed as well as her dimples, making her look extra adorable.

When she arrived by Long Chen’s side, she sat down on the stool next to him and rested her chin on the table. She then placed her small hands on the table, and her large, twinkling eyes stared at Xiaolang on Long Chen’s chest.

“You little black dog! Get out of my way! My goddess is looking at me! You’re blocking her view!” roared Little Cat in the Primordial Realm.

The girl looked pitifully at Long Chen and said cautiously, “Big Brother, Qi Qi wants to hug the puppy … Can I?”

The moment Long Chen heard her sweet, soft voice, he knew that she was an expert at asking for what she wanted.

“What?” Little Cat felt like it had been struck by lightning. The goddess was interested in the dog! Little Cat was grief-stricken!

“It makes no sense! She’s such a beautiful girl, but her judgment of beauty is problematic. It makes no sense at all! The dog is black and tries to act cool; how could his handsomeness compare to mine?”

Long Chen ignored Little Cat’s cries. He knew that Xiaolang’s look was killer for little girls. If she wanted to carry Xiaolang, she had to get his permission. It had nothing to do with Long Chen.

“You want to carry him? You’ll have to ask Brother Wolf if he agrees,” said Long Chen, amused.

The girl was overjoyed. With a mischievous sparkle in her eyes, she turned to Xiaolang and asked sweetly, “Little puppy! Could you let Sister Qi carry you? If you agree, blink once!”

The girl was very smart. Animals usually blinked, including demonic beasts.

However, to her shock, Xiaolang’s eyes widened. His golden eyes did not blink even once. The little girl waited until she broke down.

Long Chen knew that Xiaolang would not entertain the girl.

“Little girl, what is your name?” asked Long Chen when he saw her pitiful look.

“I’m Huangfu Qi,” she answered sadly.

Long Chen was interested in her because she was just too powerful. He could tell that Huangfu Qi was stronger than all the teenagers present. She was clearly barely ten years old, yet she was at the Third Passage Stage and was likely as strong as someone one stage higher. Long Chen was utterly shocked by her talent!

“And what is your name, Big Brother?” Huangfu Qi’s eyes lit up. She had not succeeded with Xiaolang, but now that Long Chen was speaking to her, and he looked like Xiaolang’s owner, wouldn’t she get to touch Xiaolang if she made Long Chen happy?

“My name is Jiang Cheng,” Long Chen answered without hesitation.

“Jiang Cheng? What a horrible name. I think I’ll just call you ‘Big Brother.’ Sounds friendlier, right? Hehe. Big Brother?” Huangfu Qi leaned closer to Long Chen, looking up at him in an ingratiating manner, though her eyes occasionally darted toward Xiaolang. It seemed she really liked Xiaolang.

“Qi Qi? Do you live in this town?” Long Chen was very curious about the girl.

“Nope. I’m here to participate in the Ancient Demon Domain’s recruitment qualifiers! Big Brother, I’m very strong, you know? When I fight… Bam! Bam! Bam! No one is a match for me! Previously, an uncle tried to bully me, but I beat his butt and tossed him into the river!” As she grew more excited, Huangfu Qi burst into giggles.

Little Cat felt a cold draft on his butt and smiled shyly as he continued to stare at Huangfu Qi in a daze. He demanded, “Brother, you must make my goddess stay! If you do, I will let you call me ‘fat cat!’ What do you think?

Long Chen pretended not to hear him. He looked at Huangfu Qi with surprise and said, “You’re here for the Ancient Demon Domain qualifiers too? You didn’t come here alone, did you?!”

“Of course I did. I’m very smart! It was a very long journey, and I got lost many times!” said Huangfu Qi smugly.

“Where are your parents?” Long Chen was speechless.

“Shh!” Huangfu Qi quickly placed a finger on her lips and leaned close to Long Chen’s ear. She whispered, “Big Brother, I ran out here alone. Don’t tell my parents, or I’ll toss you into the river too! Hehe!”

Long Chen was speechless.

“Big Brother, I really want to hug the puppy …” Huangfu Qi stared at him with longing eyes and grabbed his sleeve. There were already tears sparkling in her eyes.

“I’ll ask you a few questions. If you answer them, I’ll let you hug him. Alright?” Long Chen said sternly. He wanted to learn more about the Ancient Demon Domain, and since the girl had approached him, he did not need to find someone else.

As for Xiaolang, he would have to take one for the team …

“Alright.” Huangfu Qi nodded obediently.

“What is your current cultivation level?” he asked.

“Fourth Passage Stage …”

Indeed, she was strong.

In order to attain the Fourth Passage Stage at such a young age, she had to be a prodigy from a large faction. If she was from a large faction, why would she come to the Ancient Demon Domain?

“What do your parents do?” asked Long Chen.

Huangfu Qi panicked and said hurriedly, “Big Brother, I can’t tell you that, or my father will give me a beating! Can I have another question?”

Long Chen was only asking casually and did not intend to make her suffer. He wanted to know more about the Ancient Demon Domain, so he asked, “Do you know who the strongest people of the Ancient Demon Domain are? How strong are they?”

“I know this one!” Huangfu Qi answered excitedly. “The most powerful person is the Demon Emperor, Jiang Wuxie. He is at the Earthly Martial Realm, at the Second or Third Earthly Martial Stage. He has seven Demon Kings beneath him, who are the Pavilion Lords of the Seven Pavilions in the Ancient Demon Domain. Each of them is at the First Earthly Martial Stage. Of course, there are some hidden masters too. I’ve heard that there are also Earthly Martial experts in the younger generation.”

“That’s powerful!” Long Chen was tongue-tied, mainly shocked that there were Earthly Martial experts in the younger generation. They had to be the best prodigies of the Divine Martial Empire.

“The Ancient Demon Domain isn’t considered a strong faction in the Divine Martial Empire; it’s just one of the Martial Alliance’s members. The Martial Alliance is the strongest, and there are even more masters in Martial Imperial City!”

The Ancient Demon Domain isn’t considered strong?

To Long Chen, they were very extraordinary.

He had worked himself halfway to death to grow stronger, yet he was only at the First Passage Stage. Who knew what unfathomable heights cultivators of the Earthly Martial Realm had reached? And people from Ling Xi’s hometown were likely at least at the Divine Martial Realm. He did not even know if he could fulfill his promise of ten years. And ten years was a long time.

Huangfu Qi was bursting with impatience. When she saw that Long Chen had suddenly fallen silent, she asked hurriedly, “Big Brother, are you done asking questions?”

“Not yet.” Long Chen returned to his senses. He could tell that the little girl’s family was quite powerful, yet she had chosen to run away to come here. There had to be a reason, so he asked, “Qi Qi, could you tell me why you want to enter the Ancient Demon Domain?”

This question also left Huangfu Qi torn. She hesitated for a bit before agreeing to tell Long Chen. She sneakily leaned up to his ear and said, “Big Brother, I’ll tell you, but don’t tell anyone else!”

“Of course not. I can keep secrets,” Long Chen said solemnly.

“That’s good. I’ll tell you, then. While I was playing at home, I heard my father say that two months from now, nine suns will appear in the sky. That only happens once every ten thousand years, and it is known as the Day of the Nine Suns. The earth will turn into an oven, and to the people of the Divine Martial Empire, especially the ones with weaker cultivation that do not live in the city, it will be a catastrophe!”

Long Chen was alarmed. He blurted in a hushed tone, “Nine suns appearing at the same time?! Everyone will die!”
