Chapter 320

Countless spiritual lights drifted about, like fireflies, swirling and curling through the surroundings.

In the end, the spiritual lights vanished completely, as if they had never existed.

However, it was not over yet. "Whoosh!"

The Protective Qi rebounded one hundred percent of the force.

Therefore, the very same massive golden Sword Qi suddenly appeared upon Di Tianlong as well.

Within Di Tianlong's constricted pupils, it slashed straight down. "Puh!"

In an instant, Di Tianlong was cleaved so badly that he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

Though his body did not shatter, he was suddenly sent flying backward.

When he hit the ground, the holy-grade Protective Armor on his shoulder had shattered, covered in fresh blood, and his aura was utterly withered.

Di Tianlong trembled and said in shock, "What kind of defense is this? Not only did it block my attack, but it also rebounded all of my power?"

Xu Chen said, "It's nothing more than Protective Qi. I gave you the chance, but you couldn't take it, you old fossil." Having finished speaking, under everyone's gaze, Xu Chen went straight up to Di Tianlong and said disdainfully, "Your Luck Golden Dragon is a fine thing, a living creature, isn't it." Di Tianlong's pupils contracted slightly: "What are you going to do?"

Xu Chen said with a light laugh, "Nothing much. This Luck Golden Dragon is dense with fortune. I was just thinking, what would happen if I swallowed it?"

Di Tianlong cried out in alarm, "No, you cannot do this. If the Luck Golden Dragon is gone, my Immortal Empire will fall into decline. And I will instantly lose my qualification to be emperor. You cannot do this."

Xu Chen said coldly, "The rise and fall of the Immortal Empire has nothing to do with my ass. You provoked me, so you should be prepared to pay the price."

"Whoosh!"

Having finished speaking, Xu Chen directly opened his mouth and activated the Soul-Swallowing Scripture.

In an instant, a Buddha figure suffused with Death Qi appeared behind him, chanting Buddhist scriptures, the sound of Sanskrit unceasing.

Immediately after, an incomparably massive suction force appeared within Xu Chen's mouth.

In the blink of an eye, he drew the Luck Golden Dragon straight in and swallowed it whole.

The Luck Golden Dragon wailed and pleaded piteously, but it was utterly useless.

In the span of a mere few breaths, Xu Chen had completely devoured it.

In an instant, Xu Chen could feel the fortune within his body surging wildly.

Though he could not see it, this comfortable, gentle sensation was extremely distinct.

Xu Chen looked at Di Tianlong, whose face was deathly pale and who was filled with endless regret, and said lightly, "Not bad."

He patted Di Tianlong's shoulder: "If it weren't for Di Hanzhi, you would have died today. Honestly, you should thank her."

At this moment, Di Tianlong's face was deathly pale, his eyes vacant, utterly unable to answer Xu Chen.

Xu Chen did not mind. Di Hanzhi was the Dark Son of Heaven, and she also possessed a Luck Golden Dragon.

With this Dark Son of Heaven present, the Immortal Empire would not decline.

Therefore, swallowing this Luck Golden Dragon was a no-lose proposition.

He cast a disdainful glance at Di Qiankun: "Earlier, you were quite arrogant too." Di Qiankun was so terrified he wet himself on the spot and knelt immediately: "Don't, don't kill me, I'm a waste."

Seeing this, Xu Chen immediately smiled, looked toward Di Hanzhi, and said, "This waste — what do you think, should we keep him?"

Di Hanzhi said, "There's no need to kill him. Keep him."

She had the ability to control the empire; Di Tianlong and Di Qiankun could not stir up any waves.

On the contrary, as her emperor father and imperial brother, she was not so heartless as to go that far.

After all, although this emperor father and imperial brother had never cared about her at all, they had also never thought to torment her to death; when it came to treating illnesses, they could still treat illnesses.

Xu Chen nodded: "Up to you, I don't care."

Then Xu Chen looked toward the many powers, especially those Holy Lands: "Today I am taking Su Yuheng and the Undying Medicine. Does anyone object?"

The moment these words were spoken, the several million people of the entire Imperial Capital once again fell into silence.

This signified that no one objected.

Xu Chen did not say more, about to take his people and leave, preparing for the next grand plot.

But unexpectedly, from deep within the Imperial Palace of the Imperial Capital, an aged voice suddenly rang out: "Heh heh, what an arrogant young man. You wish to leave? Have you asked me?"

The moment these words were spoken, the people of the Immortal Empire revealed wild joy in their eyes.

"Me"? Could this be one of the ancestors of the Immortal Empire?

Xu Chen's eyes narrowed slightly. One of the ancestors of this Immortal Empire — was about to emerge from seclusion?

Oh, now that is somewhat interesting!

……Ten thousand.
