Nine Star Hegemon Body Arts Chapter 5297 The Truth Laid Bare

Chapter 5297 The Truth Laid Bare

Long Chen raised his hand and caught Liao Yongs sword.

This sword had been like a roaring divine wolf, seeming so powerful that it could devour the heavens. But now, it was like an obedient little dog that didnt even dare to bark.

The world fell silent. Countless experts stood frozen in disbelief, their mouths agape. They didnt dare to believe what they were seeing.

Liao Yongs attack was something even a two-vein Human Emperor would have to go all out to block, and even then, one mistake could result in severe injury. Yet, Long Chen had caught it barehanded, effortlessly dispelling all its power.

Blocking an attack was one thing, but to silently nullify the force behind it required a power ten times greater than the attack itself. Yet, Long Chens arm didnt even twitch after catching the sword. Not even a hair was disturbed.

Sweat dripped down Liao Yongs forehead. The sound of it falling to the ground was barely audible, yet it echoed clearly in the silence.

Only now did Liao Yong realize just how terrifying Long Chen was. The moment his sword struck Long Chens palm, the power he was most confident in vanished like a clay ox falling into the ocean.

Facing Long Chen was like facing the boundless cosmos. Because of it, Liao Yong felt incomparably minuscule, his confidence absolutely shattered. Now, he understood that the gap between him and Long Chen was so vast, even ten lifetimes of hard work wouldnt bridge it.

Suddenly, Liao Yong lost all his energy and collapsed to his knees before Long Chen.

Do you want to live or die? asked Long Chen.

I want to live! Liao Yong hastily replied, trembling. His sword was still in Long Chens hand, and through it, he could sense Long Chens killing intent. The sensation of death overwhelmed him, and his instincts screamed at him to submit and beg for mercy.

When did you betray Tianyu City? Long Chens question sent shockwaves through the crowd. Everyone stared in disbelief at Liao Yong.

I

Liao Yong had barely opened his mouth when a voice rang out from the spectators. Liao Yong, how dare you betray Tianyu City?! Die!

A four-vein Human Emperor suddenly appeared on the martial stage, slamming his palm toward Liao Yongs head.

However, Long Chen was faster. His star-covered hand struck the Emperors face before he could land the blow. The four-vein Emperor hadnt anticipated Long Chens reaction speed and was sent flying before his hand even touched Liao Yong.

The four-vein Emperor smashed into a corner of the martial stage, causing that part of the stage to collapse. Half of his face was crushed, and his body tumbled to the ground.

Startled cries rang out. As the slap was backed by astral energy, it was devastating. Despite the Emperors powerful magical arts, his weak physical body couldnt endure it. Furthermore, his goal had only been to silence Liao Yong; he hadnt expected Long Chen to strike him.

Long Chen, how brazen! Do you think Tianyu City is beneath you?! Seize him! If he resists, execute him! shouted Chi Feng, his voice shaking with rage.

Dozens of traitors had long since made their preparations, so at this command, they directly charged at Long Chen, rays of divine light shooting toward him from all directions.

The combined attacks were perfectly coordinated, leaving Long Chen with no way to escape. The pressure on the martial stage was immense as the attacks converged.

BOOM!

The resulting explosion shook all of Tianyu City. Dust filled the sky, and the crowd was swept back by the shockwave. The suddenness of the attack left everyone in disbelief.

It had been a battle between Long Chen and Liao Yong, so why would a four-vein Emperor suddenly interfere? Before the onlookers could recover from the shock of seeing their four-vein Emperor be slapped by Long Chen, these combined attacks landed, leaving them completely flabbergasted.

What?

As the dust settled, the spectators expected Long Chen and Liao Yong to have been reduced to ash. But to their shock, they saw a barrier of lightning circling around Long Chen, protecting him. It was Lei Linger. With a simple wave of her hand, she had summoned a lightning barrier imbued with Emperor might.

After going through the Human Emperor tribulation, Lei Linger came to possess a Human Emperors might. These people might want to kill Long Chen, but they had never expected that Long Chen would have such a powerful expert guarding him.

Within the barrier, Liao Yong trembled in fear. It was now clear to him that Chi Feng and the others had intended to kill him along with Long Chen. In a desperate shout, he bellowed, "Since you want to kill me, then you can all go down with me! Yes, I betrayed Tianyu City, but it was all Chi Fengs doing! He is the greatest traitor of Tianyu City!

Liao Yong no longer gave a shit. If he had to die, hed drag a few more people with him. Perhaps in the chaos, he could escape with his life.

Seeing that his words caused an uproar, Liao Yong continued, Everyone who attacked just now is a traitor to Tianyu City! Theyre all on Jiang Yimings side! They plan to overthrow Tianyu City and offer it to the Stone Spirit race!

Slander! Liao Yong, how could you accuse us of defecting to vice race leader Jiang A two-vein Emperor started to shout in protest, but he made a fatal mistake, referring to Jiang Yiming by his title. His accidental confession exposed the truth.

Tianyu Citys experts felt like the heavens had just collapsed. Their city guardthe second-in-commandhad actually betrayed them? He had joined Jiang Yimings side? Was there any more hope for Tianyu City?

Despair filled their hearts as these experts unsheathed their weapons, ready for battle.

Seeing the situation deteriorate, Chi Feng turned to flee. However, he had barely moved when a pitch-black saber pierced through his back and out his chest.
