Chapter 4119: Linglong World

chapter 4119: linglong world

“long chen, now we have our own home!”

the dark domain lord had been slain. at least, temporarily, another dark domain lord would not appear here. now, the only ones left in this world were yu qingxuan and long chen, so yu qingxuan couldn’t help but hug long chen excitedly.

with this world in their possession, they were no longer homeless loafers. this world gave them a powerful sense of belonging.

“this world still doesn’t have a name. why don’t you come up with something?” said long chen, smiling at how excited yu qingxuan was.

“no, the name that i came up with isn’t good. you do it,” said yu qingxuan, blushing slightly. crafting names wasn’t exactly her forte.

“me? alright, then how about the darkwind world?” said long chen after a moment’s thought.

seeing that long chen could only come up with such a name after thinking for so long, yu qingxuan couldn’t help laughing. “are you planning on turning this place into a bandit nest for your plunder?”

“i feel like it’s a good name.” long chen smiled.

“definitely not! if you want my suggestion, well, my life flower is the jewel blood jade orchid, the linglong flower. i can lend you the linglong name,” laughed yu qingxuan.

when yu qingxuan mentioned this flower, long chen’s heart shook. on the martial heaven continent, he had encountered this jewel blood jade orchid in the skywood divine palace’s jade lake pageant.

at the time, he had even narrated a deep love story. the jewel blood jade orchid was a symbol of unwavering love and one of eight precious treasures from ancient times. at that time, yu qingxuan had asked long chen for the jewel blood jade orchid, and he had given it to her.

later on, in the battle that destroyed the martial heaven continent, yu qingxuan sacrificed herself to save him. at that moment, the jewel blood jade orchid appeared once more.

also, in the high firmament academy’s pill institute, long chen had seen a worn-down statue with the design of the jewel blood jade orchid on it. now that yu qingxuan brought it up, he instantly had a feeling that this was no coincidence.

“long chen, what is it? you don’t like it? i just came up with something random, you can pick something else,” said yu qingxuan when she saw long chen’s odd expression.

“long chen, i’m going to talk a bit frankly. don’t get angry.”

“please, go ahead!”

“your human race only has one desire when they’re hungry. but after they’re no longer hungry, they have countless desires.”

long chen was startled. these seemingly simple words seemed to contain a lot of hidden meanings, drawing long chen to ponder about them.

“in truth, it’s not just the human race. almost all races have desires, and they are never willing to accept just what they have. however, amongst all the races, your human race’s desires are the most intense. after satiating their hunger, they want warm clothes, and then they want a home, and then they want a bigger room, and then they want servants, and then they want to stand above all others, and then they want to live forever. but the most hateful thing is that once your human race really reaches the realm of living forever, they think about how to flashily court death. the nine heavens and ten lands have been reduced to their current state, practically half-crippled. and to tell the truth, there is no mistaking the contributions of your human race in that regard.”

the dragon expert’s tone was rather complex. it contained anger, as well as contempt and a trace of sympathy.

“in truth, i don’t like the human race either. as a member of the human race, i both love and hate the human race, and i also learn to fear and respect them. i am a member of the human race, but i cannot understand the human race. in fact, sometimes i can’t even understand myself,” said long chen, sighing.

“but you always have respect and gratitude in your heart. that is your firm belief. that is why i helped you. i had actually long since lost hope for the human race, but i found that hope in you. thus, i have placed all my bets on you. if you want absolute freedom, then don’t slack off. continue onward until you reach the peak of this world. see through the riddles, and rebuild this world’s laws. if you succeed, you will have everything you want. now is not the time for you to be sighing. if you get lazy now, all your dreams will remain dreams.”

long chen nodded. “don’t worry, i’m not someone who gives up so easily. my fate will only be controlled by me.”

with the dragon expert’s encouragement, long chen felt his confidence swelling. if the dragon expert trusted him, why wouldn’t he trust himself?

“good. then you can start risking your life.”

“what?” asked a startled long chen.

“have you forgotten? your foundation isn’t the dragon soul body forging art. it’s the nine star hegemon body art. it’s time for you to try condensing your improved seven star battle armor.”

“the true seven star battle armor!”

long chen’s blood instantly ignited with excitement upon thinking of his real strongest trump card. he had actually forgotten about it.
