Chapter 6899 Soul Peering Devil Eye

A smaller, quieter palace stood between the outer and inner gates of the Wine God Palace. Long Chen, Zi Nuo, Chi Yutong, Xin Yu, and the others waited there.

Soon, more than fifty people entered. Leading them was an elder with a cold face and piercing eyes. A group of young disciples followed him, each carrying an elegant case that was likely a gift.

Long Chen was surprised to see a beautiful woman behind the elder. It was Liao Yuhuang.

Liao Yuhuang kept her head down and stayed silent as she carried the case. She never looked at Long Chen.

Long Chen’s heart skipped a beat, but he showed no sign of it. He calmly watched the elder.

The elder was a double manifestation Divine Sovereign, but something on him hid his true aura. It was clear his strength was more than it seemed.

The elder’s face fell when he realized only Long Chen and the others were there to meet them.

He coldly demanded, “The Zither Sect’s inner pavilion master Luo Xing has come to pay respects to the Wine God Palace, but you don’t even let us enter the inner gate or send someone of proper status to welcome us? Is this how your Wine God Palace welcomes guests?"

Luo Xing seemed very temperamental. He was furious that the great Zither Sect was kept outside of the inner gate and greeted only by a group of youngsters.

Zi Nuo frowned. The Zither Sect had neither sent them a visiting card in advance nor informed them through proper channels. Normally, the Wine God Palace wouldn't even allow them entry. Considering the circumstances, letting them through the outer gate was already polite.

Moreover, Zi Nuo was here as well. He was the current High Deacon and the future High Priest. His position was one level above that of an inner pavilion master of the Zither Sect.

Still, Luo Xing kept complaining, acting like a vixen on the street.

Zi Nuo was about to introduce himself, but Long Chen didn’t have his patience. He stepped forward and slapped Luo Xing hard across the face.

Even though Long Chen didn’t use much force, he was so strong that the elder was sent flying. The Zither Sect’s disciples cried out in shock as he crashed into them.

They quickly set down their elegant cases and caught him, looking flustered.

Long Chen cursed, “You shameless old man, how dare you act like you own this place? Do you think the Wine God Palace is your home? If you cause trouble again, don’t even think of leaving in one piece!”

Zi Nuo looked at Long Chen with wide eyes, questioning if this was all right. The High Priest had instructed him to welcome the Zither Sect’s group with Long Chen, but Long Chen had immediately slapped their leader.

As a refined and courteous man, Zi Nuo wasn’t sure what to do when he saw Long Chen’s assault.

Chi Yutong and Xin Yu were also shocked. They knew Long Chen was bold, but slapping someone right away seemed a bit much.

While the Zither Sect disciples were in chaos, Liao Yuhuang seemed to have expected this and had already stepped aside to avoid colliding with Luo Xing.

Luo Xing rose and furiously pointed at Long Chen.

“You—”

Long Chen shouted back, “If you dare to curse me, I will make them return to the Zither Sect with your ashes in an urn!”

Luo Xing froze. Staring into Long Chen’s cold gaze, he couldn’t keep talking. He forced himself to swallow his words.

“Is this how your Wine God Palace treats your guests?” Luo Xing demanded with a weak tone.

Long Chen sneered, “Guests? Are you really guests? You’re here for me, so what does it have to do with the Wine God Palace? If you have something to say, spit it out. Otherwise, fuck off!”

Luo Xing was furious, but Long Chen was right. They were here for him, not the Wine God Palace.

If they had genuinely come to pay respects to the Wine God Palace, they could complain about the rude reception. However, because they were after Long Chen, the fault did not lie with the Wine God Palace.

The Wine God Palace had let them in and given them a place to talk. There was nothing to complain about.

Luo Xing glared at Long Chen and smiled sinisterly. “Fine! No matter how ruthless you are, it doesn’t matter. That woman of yours is in our hands. We can take her life whenever we want. It’s only a matter of time—”

A flash of starlight appeared.

No one saw what happened, but suddenly there was a loud bang and blood splattered everywhere.

Luo Xing grunted and went flying, crashing into a stone pillar. Half his face was destroyed. Countless runes appeared on the stone pillar as the protective formation activated.

Luo Xing slowly slid down the pillar, the sound making people wince. Half his face was ruined, like an egg smashed against a rock.

“You dare to threaten me? If anything happens to Zi Yan, I’ll make sure everyone from the Zither Sect dies with her!” Long Chen shouted, his killing intent filling the palace.

Everyone felt a cold chill break through their defenses and reach their souls. Long Chen’s killing intent seemed almost real. Zi Nuo was stunned. He had never felt such bloodlust before and didn’t know what to do.

Luo Xing clenched his teeth. With only one eye left, he looked wild and was on the verge of exploding.

He couldn’t block the first slap because he wasn’t ready for it.

This time, he was ready to defend himself. But when Long Chen attacked, time seemed to twist. Before he could react, he was already hit.

Now, Luo Xing had been slapped twice in front of this many people. He was about to go crazy. His aura was fluctuating violently as he tried to hold back.

“Are you here to test me? To think you’d use such shameful methods... ” Long Chen sneered.

His eyes suddenly turned black.

“Purgatory Eyes!”

Several disciples at the very back of the Zither Sect’s group suddenly screamed and collapsed.

Before, their hoods were up, and no one noticed them. But as they fell, devil wing marks appeared around their eyes, making Xin Yu cry out in shock.

“Soul Peering Devil Eyes!”
