"Where is my father?!"
Long Chen spoke grimly, slowly walking toward Shangguan Pojun.
A dense killing intent radiated from him.
Each step he took was like a heavy hammer, brutally striking Shangguan Pojun’s chest.
"Save me!"
"Hurry up and save me!"
"Save me, and I, Shangguan Pojun, will reward you handsomely!"
Forced into a corner, Shangguan Pojun had to plead with the surrounding Disciples of Martial Sect for help.
But no one dared to step forward.
Long Chen was too terrifyingly powerful now.
Anyone who dared to help Shangguan Pojun would be walking a path to certain death!
No one wanted to follow in Su Miaoyu’s footsteps!
Everyone tacitly pretended not to hear Shangguan Pojun’s pleas for mercy.
"I... I don’t know..."
"I swear to the heavens, I really don’t know your father’s whereabouts!"
Seeing that no one was willing to help him and noticing Long Chen getting closer and closer, Shangguan Pojun was terrified. He quickly raised three fingers and swore to the heavens.
"Since you don’t know, then I’ll send you on your way!"
Long Chen’s eyes narrowed as he swung his sword at Shangguan Pojun.
"How dare you!"
An indifferent and deep voice echoed from afar, clearly reaching the ears of everyone present.
Immediately after, a powerful pressure descended from the sky.
Long Chen’s body sank.
It was as if Mount Tai itself was pressing down on him, forcing him to one knee as he struggled against the overwhelming pressure.
The ground trembled at the sound, the air grew oppressively heavy, and a sense of despair rose from the depths of people’s hearts!
"It’s Great Elder Shangguan He!"
"He’s here!"
Upon hearing the familiar voice, the Disciples of the Earth Institute showed respectful expressions and bowed in unison, crying out, "We welcome the Great Elder!"
Chu Lingjun’s brows knitted together. Shangguan He appearing at this moment is definitely not a good thing. This situation is about to become very troublesome!
"Master!"
"Save me!"
Seeing Shangguan He appear, Shangguan Pojun shouted as if he had just grasped his last lifeline.
Shangguan He glanced at the severely injured Shangguan Pojun, his brow immediately tightening.
He looked toward Long Chen and asked coolly, "Are you the Long Chen who won first place at the Demon Pursuit Conference?"
Long Chen activated the Chan Meditation Spirit Map. Battle qi surged through his body, eventually gathering into a barrier that enveloped him, shielding him from the pressure’s influence.
Shangguan He raised an eyebrow. "So, you do have some tricks up your sleeve. You can actually resist my pressure?"
"Very well!"
"Let’s see how long you can last!"
As his voice fell, Shangguan He stomped his foot, and his aura erupted! An even more powerful pressure descended upon Long Chen.
Instantly, the hard ground cracked and burst apart!
Long Chen’s entire body sank. The pressure he was bearing had clearly increased by a great deal!
"Hahaha—"
"Yes, just like that!"
"Master, kill him!"
"He wounded me this badly, so you’ll have to go easy on him. We wouldn’t want him to die too quickly!"
"Cripple him first, then give him to me. I’ll torture him, bit by bit!"
"I’ll make him wish he were dead! I’ll make him suffer a fate worse than death!"
Shangguan Pojun was like a man possessed, laughing maniacally as he screamed, revealing the depths of his hatred for Long Chen.
Resisting the immense pressure, Long Chen was enveloped in a faint golden glow. He raised his hands to form a series of seals, and a golden Rune Inscription began to spin before him.
"Great Brahman Holy Palm!"
Long Chen let out a low shout.
The golden Palm Shadow shot towards Shangguan He, carrying formidable power.
With a deafening crack, the oppressive pressure enveloping the area weakened slightly.
At least, he could move again!
His gaze immediately locked onto Shangguan Pojun.
Shangguan He’s heart flickered with surprise as he watched the golden Palm Shadow approach. I never expected this brat Long Chen could forcibly withstand my pressure! Even though I only used seventy percent of my power, it should have been more than enough to handle anyone below the War King Realm. It seems I underestimated him!
He casually swatted a palm forward, dispelling the Palm Shadow.
But Long Chen was no longer there. He had already reappeared in front of Shangguan Pojun, his hand clamped firmly around his throat.
