Chapter 6737 Connecting Thread

“Senior, please... I beg you. Don’t make things difficult for us. We still want to live,” the attendant pleaded.

Was that a joke? Asking for ox soup in the Ox Head Range was an open provocation against the Spirit Mark Barbarian Ox race. No one here would dare participate in that. If they actually served such a dish, everyone involved would likely be executed on the spot.

“Then bring me whatever is good,” Long Chen replied, not wanting to make things hard on them.

It wasn’t long before several appetizers appeared on his table.

The food was average. It was immediately clear that this was not a true restaurant. Rather, it was a resting place for adventurers and mercenaries. It could also become a place to exchange goods quietly, trade information, and pass the time.

Naturally, this place only offered some simple dishes.

The food wasn’t that good, but the tea was decent. As for the wine, Long Chen didn’t even bother trying it.

From the moment Long Chen arrived, the other patrons had begun leaving one after another. Everyone knew this place was about to become a battlefield.

As expected, it was not long before dozens of figures appeared in the sky and surrounded the restaurant.

“Peak Sovereign Lords!”

Before these new experts could do anything, Long Chen snorted. A violet ripple spread, and his domain reappeared.

“Kneel!”

The experts of the Spirit Mark Barbarian Ox race instantly plummeted into the ground like meteorites. Their legs also shattered, and they spat out blood.

Long Chen’s domain was so powerful that it suffocated them.

All of them were shocked. According to the information they had received, the one causing trouble here was supposedly a peak Sovereign Lord.

But how could a normal peak Sovereign Lord possess a domain capable of crushing them instantly?

“Kneel there and don’t move. Otherwise, ox heads will fly. We’ll wait for someone from your race who’s actually qualified to speak with me!” Long Chen ordered coldly.

Only then did he withdraw his domain.

He was quite satisfied with his violet blood domain. Of all his bloodlines, his violet blood was the easiest to control. There was no need for Long Chen to train it meticulously. As his mental realm rose and his power grew, it continued to obey him, silently accompanying him in his growth.

Although the power of his seven-color Supreme Blood and dragon blood was more domineering and destructive, this level of control was something only the violet blood could provide him.

When it flowed in perfect accordance with his will, it felt as though heaven and earth rested in his grasp. It was an intoxicating sensation. When he wasn’t in a real combat state, his violet blood was his divine guardian.

The Spirit Mark Barbarian Ox race’s experts were weak, but their kneeling posture was impeccable. They remained silent and obedient, giving Long Chen no excuse to kill them.

That was quite surprising. Normally, bull-headed demonic beasts were very violent and temperamental.

Long Chen was planning on killing at least another one of them for another soulsearch, but they did not provide him that opportunity.

Through his last soulsearch, he already knew that the Spirit Mark Barbarian Ox race had committed no small number of despicable acts here. Using their control of the region, they forced unfair trades and killed for profit without hesitation.

Thus, Long Chen had no misgivings about running rampant here. Still, he did not habitually slaughter weaklings—unless they begged him to do it.

Less than a minute later, the void quivered, and countless people cried out in shock.

“A Divine Sovereign!”

However, Long Chen frowned slightly when he sensed this person’s Sovereign might. Did the Spirit Mark Barbarian Ox race not have any real experts?

“Senior, my race is honored by your presence in the Ox Head Range,” this elder said respectfully. “However, I do not know how we have offended you. If Senior is willing to offer us some guidance, my Spirit Mark Barbarian Ox race will surely provide a satisfactory explanation.”

Everyone was shocked to hear a Divine Sovereign sound so humble toward Long Chen.

At this moment, Long Chen slowly put down the hand he had just lifted. He had been about to send this elder into the ground just like the others. But since he was so respectful, Long Chen couldn’t bring himself to make him kneel.

“You can come and speak inside,” Long Chen said.

Relief flashed across the elder’s face. Though not that powerful, he held an important position within the race. Sharp judgment and swift decisions were his greatest strengths.

After two successive waves of experts had been crushed, the elder had already sensed something was wrong. The moment he emerged from the transportation formation, he noticed abnormalities in the surrounding spatial fluctuations.

As a result, this elder believed that the person before him was almost certainly a terrifying expert concealing his cultivation base.

The elder appeared in front of Long Chen and bowed respectfully. “Senior—”

“I don’t like wasting words,” Long Chen interrupted. “Take me to the person in charge of your race here.”

“What...?”

“Is there a problem?” demanded Long Chen.

“No, not at all! We welcome you!” said that elder hastily.

In truth, the elder could read Long Chen’s intentions and didn’t want to bring Long Chen to their headquarters.

But it was equally clear that Long Chen would continue escalating matters until someone worthy spoke to him.

“Please,” the elder said, gesturing for Long Chen to come with him.

Long Chen rose. Before leaving, he placed a medicinal pill on the table as payment.

The elder’s pupils shrank as he recognized it as a high-grade treasure pill. How could it be tossed out to pay for food? Its value alone was enough to buy half of the Ox Head Range.

However, the elder was somewhat skilled. He didn’t look badly shocked and quickly brought Long Chen to the transportation formation.

Once Long Chen was here, he noticed that many of the runes were damaged. This transportation formation would probably fall apart before long.

The elder laughed awkwardly. “This place is remote and brings little profit. There isn’t enough funding to maintain the formation.”

“If there’s no profit, you can always extract it from adventurers,” Long Chen said indifferently. “Don’t tell me you’re losing money while looting others.”

The elder acted shocked. “Something like that is happening? I was unaware of it. These scoundrels are damaging our race’s reputation! I will certainly investigate—”

Long Chen waved him off, not wanting to listen to such meaningless words. He did not believe this elder wouldn’t know about it.

“I am not here to get justice for others. You planted your own karma, and someone else will naturally settle it with you,” said Long Chen.

The elder relaxed when he heard that Long Chen was not here for revenge. He quickly activated the formation.

As spatial energy enveloped them, the surrounding space fluctuated violently.

High-grade transportation formations were smooth and stable, with barely any sensation of movement.

But this one felt like riding a broken cart dragged by an ox. Worse still, that ox somehow moved as fast as an eagle, while jolting so violently that an ordinary person would likely shatter their teeth. It was a bumpy journey.

“I suppose this counts as gaining experience,” Long Chen muttered, speechless.

In the midst of this agonizing journey, the space ahead of them suddenly twisted. They came out of the spatial channel.

When Long Chen saw countless figures gathered here, his mouth twisted into a sneer.
