chapter 5342 greeting gift

long chen focused inward, observing his dantian. he noticed that the root qi within it was becoming increasingly active, with the eternal runes beneath his dantian almost converging on it. it seemed as though the two were undergoing some sort of metamorphosis. at the same time, his qi experienced a qualitative transformation.

long chen wasn’t sure how other cultivators advanced through the six realms of eternity, but he felt that for him, everything centered around this mass of root qi. he also sensed that his spirit root was awakening. unfortunately, he still couldn’t communicate with it or establish a true resonance.

despite this, long chen was filled with anticipation. after all, his spirit root had been inside long aotian for far too long, and it needed more time to adjust to his body.

long chen waved his hand, feeling his aura flow effortlessly around him. as his root qi quivered, his power surged through his body, smoother and faster than ever before.

after the tribulation ended, they returned to the wind god sea pavilion. but other than long chen and tang wan-er, everyone else wore a black veil to cover their eyes. this was long chen’s idea. he found that their gains during this tribulation were even greater than he had expected.

it was the first time these warriors had fought against the will of the heavenly daos. when they realized that they could oppose the heavenly daos, they felt like nothing else in this world was worth fearing.

through repeated slaughter and tempering of the heavenly tribulation, they were like rusty blades that had been polished and sharpened, their eyes now gleaming with a sharpness that was hard to miss.

mad lightning and the others hadn’t noticed this change due to the tribulation covering them. but now, they would easily be exposed. that was why long chen had them wear a black veil. that way, as long as they concealed their auras, people wouldn’t notice their transformation.

long chen was being rather thoughtful. after experiencing countless battles and hardships, the dragonblood legion had become legendary. men like them wouldn’t be easily impressed by ordinary women. they needed companions who had shared similar experiences, and long chen believed the hidden dragon legion could offer that.

long chen didn’t care too much about the female warriors’ innate talent, because he could upgrade their talent. but finding someone with a good heart—that was much harder. so, long chen was determined to help tang wan-er build a powerful legion, no matter the cost. for the wives of his brothers in the dragonblood legion, he was willing to spend any amount.

tang wan-er was pleased once she understood his intentions. any man from the dragonblood legion was a hero, and she would be happy if one of her sisters married them. most importantly, long chen’s thoughts showed that he had no ulterior motives toward these female disciples himself.

once they were back in the wind god sea pavilion, they saw many disciples. some bowed and looked at tang wan-er reverently, while the others sneered and acted like they didn’t see her. some people even pointed and whispered behind her back.

it went without saying that the ones respectful to her were foreign disciples who viewed her as their idol, while those who acted arrogant were native disciples. even though tang wan-er was a divine daughter, they still looked down on her, expressing the superiority of being born in the right place.

this time, though, the black veils worn by the female warriors drew the most attention. in the past, such disdainful looks might have hurt or angered them, but after all they had endured, the actions of these disciples seemed childish and laughable. it didn’t affect their moods.

long chen and tang wan-er brought the hidden dragon legion back to hidden dragon island. once they were away from other people’s gazes, long chen looked at tang wan-er and smiled warmly.

“i didn’t expect to find you so suddenly this time. i didn’t get a chance to prepare a proper gift. but here, consider this a small offering,” said long chen.

with that, the entire plaza shook as a massive chest landed before them.
