Chapter 790 - Heavenly Demon Meteor

The sudden incident took everyone by surprise. Everyone was staring at the Thunder Elders as they waited for Lei Ji’s answer.

Lei Ji was livid; he even gnashed his teeth after he heard them speak. “Remove the Thunder Prison and I won’t kill you! Or else...”

Lei Ji clenched his fists tightly, and lightning wrapped around his arms. The purple lightning split up and crackled as a dangerous aura exuded from his body. This was a type of domain, the doman he could use ever since he reached the First Heavenly Martial Stage.

The powerful aura made the Thunder Elders frown. They understood what he was planning to do even without a verbal answer. Lei Ji’s answer was a definite no.

“Scatter and don’t get close to his domain!”

The Thunder Elders swiftly retreated when Lei Ji released his domain. They looked at each other before running towards Long Chen, bypassing both patriarchs.

A domain was mainly used to suppress the target, not to attack. Bai Lan and Lei Ji were trapped in the Thunder Prison, so they couldn’t attack the Thunder Elders.

Lei Ji shouted loudly, almost exploding with anger. The other Thunder clan members did nothing when the Thunder Elders took action because they were right. While the Thunder clan was indeed safe under the Demon clan’s protection, their safety came at the cost of their freedom, especially since the younger members were frequently bullied by the Demon clan.

“Thunder Elders, you are seeking death. Once the Thunder Prison’s duration is over, I will kill you!” Lei Ji’s angry voice never stopped. Everyone felt their hairs rising up when they heard the threats of their Heavenly Martial Realm patriarch.

Lei Ji was angry, but Bai Lan was not, even though he was supposed to be even angrier. He remained calm, which made Lei Ji notice that Bai Lan had a plan up his sleeve.

Lei Ji sighed and said helplessly, “Brother Bai, I’m sorry. This is my fault.”

“No, the fault is mine. They are right. The Thunder clan and the Demon clan are supposed to be sworn brothers. It’s all because I never taught my clan members how to act and didn’t set them on the right path. This is a good chance to make the two clans become friendlier ...”

Lei Ji was shocked when he saw Bai Lan grinning. He finally understood what Bai Lan was doing. He had a feeling that Bai Lan already knew what was going to happen. The other clans saw Bai Lan not only as strong, but also smart and cunning. It was one of the reasons he was so successful.

No one knew what Bai Lan was thinking.

Even his daughters were panicking, yet Bai Lan remained calm. There was one more person who was still calm, and that was Long Chen. He looked at Situ Yao and the Thunder Elders. All of them were at the Ninth Earthly Martial Stage, but he wasn’t afraid at all.

The Thunder Elders agreed to Situ Yao’s condition after a short discussion. Lei Yuan glared at him. “Situ Yao, end it swiftly. We don’t have time. Also, we will make sure you die if you so much as touch the Seven Star Lord’s inheritance. Retreat is no longer an option for the Thunder clan.”

“Deal! It won’t take more than ten breaths!”

Having received the Thunder clan’s permission, Situ Yao was excited. Even though the inheritance would not be his, he would be satisfied with killing Long Chen to avenge his grandson. He could think about the other stuff later.

Everyone shouted when Situ Yao charged towards Long Chen. He had initially wanted to attack Long Chen when the revolt from the Thunder clan sprung.

“Heavenly Demon Transformation Fist, Heavenly Demon Meteor!”

This was the final move of the Heavenly Demon Transformation Fist, an elementary Emperor-tier technique. It was most suited for cultivators at the Third Heavenly Martial Stage, but Situ Yao was talented enough to use it even though he was only at the Ninth Earthly Martial Stage.

An explosive shockwave spread everywhere when Situ Yao launched his punches. A black light appeared and fragmented into a myriad of fist illusions. The illusions were all focused on Long Chen’s forehead. All Long Chen could see was a massive demon illusion flying towards him with its mouth wide open!

The space around Situ Yao trembled, and the Thunder Elders looked at each other with shock because the technique was too powerful! They had to take a few steps back to mitigate its effect on them.

“Prepare to take the inheritance! Be wary of Situ Yao fooling us!” Lei Yuan warned the other Thunder Elders.

They were certain that Long Chen would be killed by that attack.

When the Heavenly Demon Meteor descended on Long Chen, he remained calm as starlight condensed in his grasp and took the shape of a brilliant, blue spear. Long Chen infused all of his essence into the dazzling spear before thrusting it towards Situ Yao.
