Chapter 1639 Long Chen’s Killing Intent

chapter 1639 long chen’s killing intent

the pill fairy left, leaving meng qi and the others a bit befuddled. as women, they could clearly sense her feelings for long chen.

furthermore, they also knew what long chen had done in pill valley as long san. originally, he had been keeping it secret, but tang wan-er had wheedled him until he had spat out the truth.

back then, tang wan-er had actually gotten quite jealous, but when she saw the pill fairy in person, she found that her pure-hearted nature made it very difficult for one to feel badly toward her.

in truth, women were just that curious. when the pill fairy had invited long chen to join her, they had felt jealous, but when long chen had turned her down, her sad expression and lonely figure had made them feel pity.

how long chen had acted toward the pill fairy when he had seen her in the skywood divine palace had also satisfied the three of them, so after discussing it, they had decided to give the pill fairy a chance.

meng qi was their representative in expressing their goodwill toward the pill fairy. her attitude was their attitude. however, the pill fairy had actually declined.

“is this her way of winning her face back after long chen refused her first?” wondered tang wan-er.

“how could that be possible? she’s not that kind of petty person,” said meng qi.

“long chen, what’s going on?” tang wan-er turned to long chen.

“perhaps... you’ve just misunderstood and she doesn’t have such thoughts at all.” long chen shrugged helplessly. the hearts of women were so difficult to understand. anyone who could understand them could directly be bestowed the title of a god.

“we’re being serious here!” rebuked tang wan-er.

“i’m not kidding. there really is nothing between us,” said long chen.

there really had been nothing between them. they hadn’t had a kiss or anything like that. he had always felt great respect for the pill fairy, but nothing more.

“long chen, are you really this dumb or are you just acting?” asked meng qi.

“what?”

meng qi shook her head. “it seems you really don’t understand women. the pill fairy gave you her identity plate to allow you to leave pill valley. do you really think that was purely out of the kindness of her heart?”

long chen looked at meng qi, speechless.

meng qi couldn’t help sighing. “fool, she was unwilling to see you die in pill valley and would rather take the responsibility herself to let you live. do you realize her actions are equivalent to a betrayal? do you know how serious the consequences would be? you might be a fool, but she’s not. if it weren’t for her feelings toward you, would she be willing to do such a thing? if you had used that identity plate at that time, then even if she could escape death since she’s the valley master’s daughter, her future prospects would surely come to an end. did you not think of that outcome?”

“well...” long chen’s heart pounded. at that time, he had thought that pill fairy was just helping him because of her feelings of right and wrong. he hadn’t considered all of this. only now that meng qi told him did he realize he had been thinking too simply.

however, this was too crazy. he and the pill fairy hadn’t even been together for that long, and they hadn’t had any life and death experiences together. he was unable to believe that the pill fairy had fallen for him.

“long chen, i order you to win back the pill fairy!” said tang wan-er solemnly.

shen bijun took out a very high-quality ancient jade pendant. divine marks were carved into it. it was definitely no ordinary object.

upon looking at the jade pendant, tears streamed down shen bijun’s face. she made the pendant slowly float over to long chen.

bang!

a lightning arrow shot through the air, blowing the jade pendant to dust.

everyone jumped in shock. they saw long chen with his hand raised. that attack had clearly come from him.

“long chen, do you hate me so much?” shen bijun’s expression was the very picture of grief. she looked absolutely heartbroken as she covered her face and ran away.

long chen’s expression was gloomy. he sent a message to meng qi, chu yao, tang wan-er, liu ruyan, and cloud. “if you encounter shen bijun in the future, don’t have any mercy. kill her with your full power. she’s extremely sinister and will use any means necessary for her goals. she’s expressing love for me so that no one will suspect her once she kills me. that, or it’s to create a reason for her to kill me. although i’m not sure what exactly her goal is, that jade pendant was definitely tampered with and might have been able to kill me. i already gave her one chance before, but she still wants to kill me, so i don’t mind being vicious.”

long chen was infuriated. he had never encountered such a sickening woman. she was capable of doing anything.

“long chen, you went too far! there’s no need for you to hurt others like this!”

“someone who doesn’t understand how to respect others will never receive other people’s respect.”

“just because she likes you doesn’t mean you can trample over her dignity. how can your heart be so vicious?”

the sight of long chen destroying shen bijun’s tablet, as well as the sight of her sobbing as she left, immediately caused quite a few people to stand up and criticize long chen out of a sense of justice.

liu ruyan’s expression sank, and the whip in her hand began to glow. long chen immediately grabbed her hand and shook his head. “leave it be. there’s no meaning in quibbling with some brainless haters. there are far too many people who like to talk and criticize others without having any skill.”

“you’re growing more and more unlike yourself,” said liu ruyan frostily.

tch, he was being looked down upon again. it seemed liu ruyan was quite warlike herself.

at this time, a bell rang out again, signifying the end of this portion of the pageant. everyone was summoned and led down another path.

shen bijun’s expression was still aggrieved as she followed di xin, han feifei, and wang shan. long chen saw many experts who hadn’t been close to di xin before now standing closer to him.

those empyreans hadn’t had a negative or positive feeling for long chen before. however, now long chen sensed that he was being rejected by them.

he didn’t know if it was because of meng qi and the others that had caused them to become jealous, or because he had rejected shen bijun and brought out their desire to protect the weak.

it went without saying that shen bijun’s acting was top-notch. each of her schemes was win-win for her. whether long chen accepted or declined, she was the winner. she had managed to push long chen into the heart of the struggle.

the only one who wasn’t glaring at him with hostility but still maintaining a certain distance from him was the pill fairy. in fact, she didn’t even dare to look at him. the atmosphere between them was a bit awkward.

when everyone reached the end of the path, they arrived at a set of gates. those gates opened, revealing a sight that made everyone jump in fright.
