Within a resplendent palace in the imperial city of the Heavenly Heart Empire, ninety-nine huge golden dragons were coiling around each other. In the center was a golden seat, and on it sat a dignified middle-aged man wearing a yellow robe with a dragon coiling around his robe and a crown on his head.

Suddenly, the middle-aged man opened his eyes. Within his eyes, thunder rumbled. With a flash of golden light, the two beams of light shot through the air.

At the border of the Heavenly Heart Empire, the two golden pillars of light shot through the air and into the void. After a few breaths, an angry roar resounded through the sky, causing the clouds to surge as they retreated in circles.

The blood flower appeared, and following it were two golden pillars of light that were in hot pursuit.

"Human Emperor! I am not willing to be entangled with you, so why must you continue to chatter on like this? Why don't you and I both take a step back? "

"Humph!" With a cold harrumph, the golden pillar of light continued to charge toward the blood flower without stopping. It was approaching menacingly, as though it wasn't going to give up until the blood flower died.

"How can you just leave after trespassing on our territory!" The sound of thunder exploded as the endless golden snake danced wildly. Each of its words reached the ears and shook the hearts and souls of those who heard it.

Human Emperor, I have never stepped foot into your territory. Furthermore, I have come here to chase after my enemy without the slightest intention of offending him. Xue Hua explained. His voice was not very loud and it no longer possessed the arrogant arrogance that he had had when he was chasing after Long Chenglou.

"Does This Emperor need a reason to kill you?" A voice came from the pillar of light. It wasn't loud, but it was hard to conceal the overbearing tone.

"Human Emperor! Don't force me! " The blood flower roared, and a blood colored killing intent filled the air. The petals opened and closed, and the one eye turned blood-red as well. It was eerie and scarlet, as if it was about to drip blood.

"Humph!" This Emperor forced you? So what if I force you? " The domineering words rang out once more.

"Human Emperor! If you let me go today, I will definitely repay you in the future! " The flower of blood began to promise benefits. A person's silhouette could be vaguely seen in the vertical pupil in the eye.

There was no sound coming from the light pillars, but the two light pillars were still tightly locked onto the blood flowers. It seemed that the blood flowers would be annihilated the moment they recklessly moved.

"Every year, your royal family can make the royal bloodline come to my Bloodfire Mountain to train. This is something many large sects would wish for."

"I don't need you to promise me that under the heavens, my descendants can go wherever they want to train. Is there even a need to ask others for their opinion?" Thunder rumbled, and the endless golden snakes that were coiling around the blood-red flower shrunk significantly.

"Last time in the ancient battlefield, I obtained an ancient treasure. Although it was broken, its power is still extraordinary."

The endless golden snakes that surrounded the blooming blood flower shrunk a lot in size. When the golden snakes came in contact with the blood fiend energy, they emitted a sizzling sound.

The eye of the flower of blood stared at the pillar of light, silent for a long time.

"I know a place I can go. I've never been there, but I've seen someone go in there before."

The middle-aged man sitting on the golden throne in the palace stood up, breathing heavily.

"Where?"

"When the Ancient Battlefield opens, I'll bring you there."

"En …" The middle-aged man sat back down, unable to conceal the excitement in his eyes.

Sensing that the flower of blood was about to escape, suddenly, the endless golden snakes engulfed it.

At Bloodfire Mountain.

"Shameless Human Emperor!" A furious roar shook the ground, and the bubbles in the blood pool were unable to calm down for a long time.

In the end, he locked onto a young man who had a small beast imprint on his arm as he struggled forward. The young man did not notice that someone was staring at him and continued to struggle forward. Occasionally, a passerby would look at the young man curiously.

The young man was Long Chen. As the Human Emperor's gaze fell on him, the small beast mark on Long Chen's arm opened slightly, and in the blink of an eye, it closed again. The sharp scales weren't suitable for appearing in a crowded area, so they were left imprinted on Long Chen's arm.

At this moment, Long Chen's mind was connected to the sharp scales. The instant the sharp scales appeared, Long Chen naturally felt it.

"Cough cough, I accidentally bumped into an old friend. Our relationship is very good. Um, don't raise your head and pretend that nothing happened."

"Our relationship is really good." The guilty Sharp Scales added, but this explanation gave him a feeling of helplessness.

Within the palace, the middle-aged man sitting on the golden throne smirked, "This bald thief."

The golden pillar of light dissipated into specks of light. Long Chen could no longer feel the guilt in his heart regarding the sharp scales. He continued walking forward while clutching his chest.

Previously, when the light barrier had been broken through, the sharp scales had brought Long Chen out of the crevice, and countless palm-sized flowers of blood had been chasing after him. Previously, when the light barrier had been broken through, the sharp scales had brought Long Chen out of the crevice, and countless palm-sized flowers of blood had been following him closely.

"Where are we going now?" Long Chen endured the pain as he asked.

"There is no medicine in the mortal world that can cure that lousy flower in your chest. It seems like I have to find a sect and blend in with them to get rid of the blood poison." Also, in less than ten days, you've used two cultivation techniques in a row that forcefully increased your cultivation level, which has a huge impact on your foundation. You'll need to find some pills that can cleanse your body of its essence and strengthen your foundation. Ordinary pills aren't enough, so you'll need some better pills, but for a short period of time, you'll need to think of a good method … "

Long Chen leaned against the wall and gripped his chest tightly. His face was pale.

"What method is this!"

"I can only steal it."

"How?" Long Chen painfully crouched onto the ground. Bean-sized drops of sweat rolled down his face. His hand was on the ground, and his palm was covered with sweat.

"As long as you enter a random sect, I'll handle the rest."

"Child, are you alright?" An aunt stared at Long Chen for a long time. After hesitating for a moment, she walked up and asked with concern.

Long Chen lifted his head and shook his head with great difficulty. He rubbed against the wall and slowly stood up. He gave his aunt a difficult smile and walked off into the distance. After walking for an unknown amount of time, Long Chen inadvertently turned around and saw that the aunt was still looking at him. The aunt was smiling. "Long Chen looked like a child who had just left home. His eyes were filled with a deep love. This made Long Chen's heart heat up. The pain seemed to have dissipated quite a bit as his dry lips parted.

He turned his head back several times. This feeling was very strange. Long Chen had never felt such a feeling before. This feeling made him long to rely on his aunt in the distance.

When Sharp Scales opened his eyes, he could naturally feel Long Chen's emotions.

"Hai." "Yes." Jing Lin sighed. Let's go and treat your injuries first. " Long Chen gave the aunt another glance and the pain dissipated periodically. Just as he was about to increase his speed, he heard a cry from behind him.

"Child, wait."

Long Chen was stunned. He turned around to see his aunt running towards him, "Child, can you …" Can you ask Auntie to wipe your sweat? " The aunt was a bit reserved.

Long Chen nodded his head heavily. His aunt happily took out a silk handkerchief and carefully wiped the sweat off Long Chen's forehead. Long Chen stood there, unmoving, as he allowed his aunt to wipe away the sweat on her forehead.

"In the past, aunty also had a child. If she was here, she would probably be around the same age as you." As she spoke, the aunt wiped away the sweat and dirt on Long Chen's palms.

"You're too skinny, you need to eat more." The aunt caressed Long Chen's face. It was not that Long Chen was thin, but the side effects of using cultivation techniques from before. His appearance had only been partially restored, but he was still very thin.

"Kid, auntie doesn't have anything good for you either. From the looks of it, you're going far away with something to eat. Here, take it. Pillar loved to eat Auntie's bread when he was young, always yelling for Auntie to make it for him, but at that time, his family was very poor …" Long Chen took the biscuit and did not speak. He quietly listened to his aunt's nagging. Long Chen did not find it annoying.

After she finished wiping her hair, the aunt rearranged Long Chen's hair and continued nagging him. Her eyes were filled with tears, but she was smiling very happily.

After carefully shaving Long Chen's hair, the aunt wiped her eyes, "What are you looking at this for? Child, is the biscuit delicious?" Long Chen nodded his head.

"If you want to eat it in the future, you can come to Tiger City to look for the aunt. The aunt will cook for you, and the one at the end of the alley over there is the aunt's house, you can eat it if you want." The aunt's face was brimming with a happy smile.

"Thank you, Auntie." Long Chen, who had been starving for a long time, wolfed down two large cakes. The aunt helped Long Chen wipe the residue at the corner of his mouth.

The setting sun was as red as blood and at this moment it was deeply branded into Long Chen's heart.
