Chapter 817: Path of the Beast Warrior
The nine clans were gathered. Xiaolang was currently standing behind Wu Guangyu. Since it wasn’t the time to start fighting against the Divine clan yet, Long Chen told Xiaolang to stay put for now. They planned to escape after the tournament ended. Long Chen was certain that Bai Lan would protect him and Xiaolang so Wu Lian wouldn’t be able to hurt them.
Long Chen and Xiaolang exchanged gazes without saying anything. Long Chen then focused on Jin Ling.
Jin Ling was standing with the patriarch of the Gold clan. His body was covered in a veil of dazzling gold that gave off a sharp aura capable of cutting people who got too close to him.
Today was the fight between Long Chen and Jin Ling, so the Wind clan and the Divine clan were set aside for now. The Five Element Alliance was giving the Demon clan taunting looks. The Gold clan’s patriarch was eyeing Long Chen and trying to estimate how strong Long Chen was. Only when everyone from the Demon clan arrived did the Golden clan’s patriarch clear his throat. “Little Bai, I can’t believe your eyes are still so sharp. We are impressed that you would be able to retain a genius with just a single daughter of yours.”
He had spoken in a demeaning tone to taunt Bai Lan. He was inferring how the Demon clan didn’t have a single genius and so they had to bewitch Long Chen with lust.
Bai Lan ignored the taunt and retorted, “You can also marry your daughter to Long Chen, but I don’t think it would work since your daughter is most likely five hundred years old by now. I doubt that Long Chen would accept her hand in marriage.”
He laughed along with everyone in the Demon clan and the Thunder clan. Bai Lan was old, and had his daughters when he was very old. He had immersed himself in his cultivation during his younger days.
The Gold clan patriarch, however, wasn’t angry. Instead, he chuckled. “Of course I can’t do that. Unfortunately, my daughter doesn’t have what it takes to attract him. We from the Five Element Alliance do not condone such methods. We nurture our own talents rather than bewitching them. Of course, we could do so if we wanted to since we have a lot of beauties, but unfortunately, they are reserved for only the youths of the Five Element Alliance.”
Bai Lan smiled and didn’t argue back. He looked around before shouting, “Where is the Long-bearded Guest? Is he here?”
