Chapter 6874 Recruitment

The Scarlet Blood War Chariot tore through space, followed by a demon phoenix with blazing flames all around it.

Chi Yunfeng was riding on the demon phoenix’s back, closely following the Scarlet Blood War Chariot. This flame demon phoenix was Chi Yunfeng’s contractual demonic beast, and it was originally an acquired Divine Sovereign just like him.

Thanks to his recent breakthrough, the flame demon phoenix’s realm also started to ascend. With Chi Yunfeng’s help, it had surpassed the limits of the acquired Divine Sovereign realm but was still some distance from a half-step double manifestation.

Thanks to their contract, they could share their power. Chi Yunfeng had already broken through, so the phoenix’s breakthrough was only a matter of time.

When Chi Yutong informed him that Long Chen was going to fight Yan Sheng, Chi Yunfeng knew that the Flame God Sect’s opportunity had arrived. For many years, the Flame God Sect had been targeted by numerous factions, constantly provoked and tested. Some of their disciples even died as a direct result of this.

After enduring for so many years, Chi Yunfeng had long since reached his limit. This was also why he had risked making his breakthrough, even though he knew the chances of failure were high.

If the Flame God Sect lacked a double manifestation Divine Sovereign, it would surely be consumed before the great era arrived. Their enemies would not simply stand by while Chi Yutong grew.

To protect his daughter and the Flame God Sect, Chi Yunfeng had to risk it all.

Now, he was a double-manifestation Divine Sovereign. He could use this battle to announce to the world that the old Flame God Sect was back and that any debts owed to the sect would be recovered with interest.

Although it appeared that Chi Yunfeng was here to support Long Chen, the real intention was to demonstrate his power and assert dominance.

He would surely send his regards to every sect and faction that had ever humiliated the Flame God Sect. But first, he would use his power to intimidate those troublemakers who enjoyed stirring up trouble.

If all those troublemakers united, it would be hard for him to handle them. After all, the Flame God Sect wanted revenge, not to offend everyone.

In theory, Chi Yunfeng’s flame demon phoenix should be at the front. But Chi Yunfeng told Chi Yutong to go ahead, essentially announcing to the world that Chi Yutong was the future sect master. He only held the title for now.

Behind Chi Yunfeng was an army of young disciples. This time, the Flame God Sect had mobilized all its elites, not hiding any longer.

They had concealed their power out of fear of enemies targeting them. Now, they only feared the most powerful forces in the world.

...

Within the Scarlet Blood War Chariot, Long Chen was staring blankly outside the window.

“Long Chen, open up...” Xin Yu said.

Xin Yu plucked a grape and offered it to Long Chen as if she were going to feed him by hand.

Long Chen shivered and immediately turned away, suppressing his urge to vomit.

As if knowing that Long Chen would react this way, Xin Yu giggled. “Aiya, are you embarrassed? I’m just trying to thank you for your pointers. It’s just a small token of my appreciation, so don’t misunderstand. I’m not even thinking about pursuing you.”

“If you really want to thank me, stay quiet and let me be at peace. You’ve been talking nonstop the whole way. You’re more talkative than this parrot I know,” Long Chen replied.

For Xin Yu, the rapid increase in her power felt like a dream. She kept talking animatedly to Chi Yutong in the carriage, excitedly mentioning her progress and how she had overcome small bottlenecks.

But how could an outsider possibly understand the Spirit Heart Sect’s cultivation technique? Chi Yutong had no idea what Xin Yu was saying. She was just nodding, occasionally giving her an “ooh” or an “ahh”.

Long Chen thought that avoiding her gaze would spare him. But after chatting with Chi Yutong for half the day, Xin Yu still directed her attention toward him.

“Big brother Long Cheeeen...” Xin Yu intentionally stretched out his name in a flirtatious way.

Long Chen’s hair stood on end, and he quickly asked, “Fine, what do you want?”

Seeing the normally composed Long Chen being countered by Xin Yu, Chi Yutong covered her mouth and giggled.

Xin Yu wriggled her eyebrows at him and asked, “I’ve been wanting to ask you some questions. How did you come to know so much at such a young age? Where did they employ you as a teacher? How much did you make a month? Well, if someone were to offer you a better salary, would you be tempted? Or maybe you would be willing to just contract yourself out? Let me tell you, the Heavenly Magnificence Palace of Learning pays its masters very well, even if the ones we saw were trash. But if you want money like that, you can always come to the Spirit Heart Sect. We’ll pay any price you want.”

Long Chen looked at her with disdain. Her scheming was so clueless it was obvious.

After getting a sweet taste, she wanted to bring Long Chen to her home and make him raise a whole group of experts.

She was so innocent that her naivety turned into foolishness. With Long Chen’s skills, her Spirit Heart Sect was like a temple asking a mighty deity to stay within it. How did she dare to she say such a thing? However, her foolishness also seemed a bit endearing. Moreover, there was no malice.

“I was employed by an academy, and they were absolutely broke. They had no money. I don’t even know if I ever got paid. On the other hand, I invested quite a bit of money into it. Tell me, don’t you think it’s outrageous?” said Long Chen with righteous indignation.

“Then why stay there? Are you paying for the status?” Xin Yu asked, looking at Long Chen as if he were an idiot.

After a brief pause, Xin Yu continued, “Maybe you really should come to my Spirit Heart Sect. I’ll give you everything. You can even be the sect master.”

“Sect master?” Long Chen repeated, smiling.

Was she stupid, or was he? Who could believe such a thing?

Xin Yu solemnly said, “You don’t believe me? If you accept me as your master right here and now, when I become sect master, I’ll give you my position.”

“Go sit over there!”

Long Chen’s contempt resurfaced. This girl’s head definitely wasn’t normal.

Chi Yutong felt a ripple in her heart. Xin Yu was sincerely trying to recruit Long Chen, but was that not pulling him away from Chi Yutong?

Yet, Chi Yutong was bent over laughing. She turned away, afraid to see Long Chen’s scornful expression and Xin Yu’s sincere look.

Yan Li had been silent this whole time, but he finally broke the silence.

“My boss definitely won’t be someone else’s apprentice. Big sister Xin Yu, Boss will get angry with you if you keep this on.”

It seemed that Yan Li’s emotional intelligence was on the same level as Xin Yu’s. He was just as serious as she was.

At that moment, a rumbling sound sounded from outside. A black chariot appeared and quickly flew straight toward them, as if trying to ram into them. It was a clear act of provocation.

“Courting death!”

Yan Li furiously raised a hand, but Long Chen stopped him.

He said, “This person is here for the Flame God Sect.”

Just as the black chariot was about to crash into the Scarlet Blood Battle Chariot, it came to a sudden stop.

The Scarlet Blood Battle Chariot’s runes flashed. Their flames surged out and smashed into the black chariot.

The black chariot suddenly shattered with a deafening explosion, and a miserable figure was thrown out, coughing up blood.
