Chapter 6113 Tired of Living?
Just as the elder attacked, his vision suddenly darkened.
SLAP!
A hand smacked across the elder’s face, and his yellow teeth flew through the air.
“You dare to block me, Mo Nian? Old fogey, are you tired of living?!”
Long Chen clasped his hands behind him, looking at this elder coldly.
“You are courting death!”
The elder let out a screech like a slaughtered pig. He was about to charge at Long Chen when the city lord’s expression shifted slightly. He cast a quick glance at the surrounding experts.
“Elder Xu, calm yourself.”
Several Sovereign Lords immediately moved to restrain the donkey-faced elder.
The city lord had guessed that Long Chen was no ordinary person. Even if he hadn't heard of “Mo Nian,” the young man’s composure, aura, and the ease with which he slapped a Sovereign Lord elder made one thing clear—he was not to be trifled with.
Moreover, this wasn’t the time to pursue grudges. Their city was in crisis. And truthfully, the donkey-faced elder was in the wrong. He was just too tyrannical.
Just then, the last of the fleeing experts entered the city.
“Activate the grand formation!”
As soon as the order was given, the entire city lit up with divine light. A barrier rapidly expanded outward, wrapping around the city like a cocoon.
At the same time, pillars of divine light soared skyward, and the formation eyes came to life one after another. These were the critical nodes Elder Xu had mentioned earlier. Only after all thirty-six thousand formation eyes were activated would the barrier reach peak power.
They needed time for at least ten thousand formation eyes to activate, but time was short.
The experts atop the walls watched with bated breath as the devil creatures charged over.
As the devil creatures slammed into the barrier, giant ripples appeared on it. However, the formation held.
Everyone’s heart tensed, but the city lord let out a silent breath of relief. If the first wave was held off, they were safe. By the time the main horde arrived, the formation would be fully active.
As the minutes passed, more and more devil creatures arrived, completely surrounding the city. The sky itself darkened from their numbers.
But no matter how wildly they attacked, the barrier held firm.
“We’re safe...”
A collective breath of relief escaped from the walls.
And then—
“You little brat, I’ll kill you!”
With the crisis averted, the donkey-faced elder immediately unleashed his Sovereign Lord might on Long Chen. His fingers were like claws stretching toward his throat.
“Stop!” shouted the city lord, but the Elder Xu was too fast.
CRACK!
Long Chen casually swung his hand again, and half of Elder Xu’s face exploded. His jaw shattered.
He then flew like a meteor and smashed into the barrier, which trembled under the impact. Even the devil creatures outside were knocked back.
Blood spurted from Elder Xu’s mouth, and his Sovereign aura collapsed. At this sight, gasps rang out from the surrounding experts.
Many immediately gripped their weapons, staring at Long Chen with disbelief. This young man had just crushed a second Heavenstage Sovereign Lord with a single slap!
“I, Mo Nian, have swept through the heavens. Trash like you aren’t even worth my time. I’ve lost count of how many like you I’ve killed. Try touching me again and I’ll rip off your head.”
Long Chen’s icy gaze pinned the bleeding elder in place.
The weakest of all second Heavenstage Sovereign Lords had actually dared to attack him? This elder clearly wasn’t a fighter. He had the realm, but lacked the power. And yet, he had the gall to act arrogant?
If Long Chen hadn’t held back, that slap would’ve sent this idiot donkey straight to the afterlife.
Elder Xu was stunned, furious, and above all—terrified. That one blow had nearly killed him.
At this moment, Su Yu stepped forward and bowed slightly.
“Young friend, please calm down. Elder Xu was in the wrong. I apologize on his behalf.”
Her timing was impeccable. Had the city lord spoken instead, it would have been seen as the entire city bowing its head, elevating Long Chen’s status above theirs. But Su Yu, as a fellow Human Emperor and Sovereign sprout, was his equal. She was the perfect mediator.
In truth, Su Yu also held Elder Xu in contempt. But his seniority in the Four Cardinal Alliance was too high, so she had no choice but to endure him.
When Long Chen slapped him, she almost cheered. But fortunately, she managed to restrain herself.
“Oh, little sister Su Yu, it’s been a long time,” Long Chen chuckled.
“You... you know me?” asked Su Yu.
Long Chen froze for a moment, nearly forgetting he was impersonating Mo Nian.
He quickly said, “The name of the Four Cardinal Alliance’s fairy, Su Yu, is one I’ve heard for a long time. Your reputation truly precedes you.”
Su Yu was caught off guard. While she did have some fame within the Four Cardinal Alliance, it definitely didn’t warrant this kind of praise. But if Long Chen insisted he knew her, she had no choice but to play along.
With a smile, Su Yu replied, “Little sister has also long since heard of senior apprentice-brother Mo Nian’s name. Meeting you today is the blessing of three lifetimes.”
Even as the words left her mouth, she winced internally. It sounded so fake it gave her goosebumps. But what else could she say? If she admitted she didn’t know who Mo Nian was, things would only get awkward.
“Well said. I, Mo Nian, was coincidentally passing through when I saw the devil creatures tide. I had to get into your city to hide from them. I hope you’ll excuse the intrusion,” said Long Chen.
Just then, another Sovereign Lord stepped forward angrily.
“If you want our protection, shouldn’t you know that you’re the guest? How can you strike one of our elders?”
This elder was very displeased with Long Chen’s conduct. After all, slapping Elder Xu in the face was equivalent to slapping all of them.
“You old fogey, did I give you too much face?” threatened Long Chen.
He had just played nice for their sake, and now they dared to act tough again? If he hadn’t been curious about the origin of this devil creature tide, he wouldn’t have cared about their damn city.
“Brother Mo, please don’t be angry,” Su Yu interjected again, trying to de-escalate the situation.
But the elder sneered. “If you really had any guts, you wouldn’t be hiding in here. You’d have gone out to fight them head-on.”
When Long Chen heard this, his gaze sharpened. A thought flickered through his mind.
Long Chen stared at the elder suspiciously. With a low and suspicious voice, he asked, “Why are you in such a hurry to see me gone? What exactly are you hiding?”
