Nine Star Hegemon Body Arts

Chapter 5771: Bi Yingxue

“Who is she?” Long Chen asked Luo Yanfeng.

“Her name is Bi Yingxue. She is one of the top three experts of the Bi family’s junior generation.”

“Bi Yingxue? It couldn’t be… Bi Yingxiong’s little sister?!” Long Chen was startled.

“No… Although they share the same ‘Ying’ character, they are several generations apart. But Bi Yingxue is indeed from Bi Yingxiong’s bloodline,” Luo Yanfeng whispered. “We should be careful. Her aura is completely different from before. I’ve exchanged blows with her before, and back then, I barely won. Even after I’ve grown this much stronger, she still gives me a sense of danger.”

Luo Yanfeng’s expression was serious as he studied Bi Yingxue. He had gone through countless battles, refining not only his power but also his perception and vision. With just a single glance, he could tell she was strong—but what baffled him was how she had grown so quickly.

Most importantly, there was no trace of a totemic blessing on her body. In other words, she had reached this level without undergoing the sacred baptism.

Bi Yingxue led a group of Bi family experts straight toward them, stopping only when they were a few feet apart.

Long Chen looked at her. She was tall and slender, with a sword strapped to her back. Her forehead was wide, her chin narrow, and her eyes a strange violet-red.

Most members of the violet blood race had violet eyes—the deeper the hue, the purer the bloodline. However, there were rare exceptions. Some were born with divine runes in their pupils, which represented natural talents. Luo Yanfeng, Luo Shenghui, and other top geniuses bore such runes, and they were said to awaken in the Human Emperor realm.

However, Bi Yingxue’s violet-red eyes weren’t the result of divine runes—they were because of a bloodline mutation. What unsettled Luo Yanfeng was that her eyes hadn’t been like this before. In other words, it was a recent mutation. However, a later-in-life mutation was extremely rare.

Both sides faced off in silence. Bi Yingxue’s gaze was as sharp as a blade, her killing intent palpable. She made no effort to conceal her hostility.

The Bi family disciples behind her also glared at Long Chen with unrestrained fury. The entire violet blood race had heard about how Long Chen had slapped Bi Yingxiong in the face. Although the race leader had attempted to suppress the news, it was impossible to contain such a scandal. It spread like wildfire to everyone’s ears.

To the Bi family, that slap wasn’t just an insult to Bi Yingxiong—it was a slap in the face of the entire family, an unforgivable disgrace.

Bi Yingxue’s killing intent surged. If not for her self-restraint, she would have already attacked.

Long Chen’s gaze was also icy. He didn’t say a word—he simply couldn’t be bothered.

From the moment the Bi family sent Bi Wanan against Long Chen, he already placed them on his kill list.

Long Chen knew that competition between families was natural, given the scarcity of resources. But rather than competing fairly, the Bi family resorted to sinister schemes and treachery. They had long since abandoned any notion of kinship. In that case, Long Chen could only view them as enemies to be slaughtered.

Toward his enemies, Long Chen wouldn’t show mercy. When he faced Bi Yingxue, there was nothing for him to say. It was better to let their weapons speak for them.

Facing the furious Bi Yingxue, Luo Yanfeng and the others had their hands on their weapons, ready to act at a moment’s notice. They had learned from Long Chen—anyone who raised a weapon against them was an enemy, and enemies deserved no mercy.

“Long Chen, I, Bi Yingxue, will take your life on the battlefield,” she declared coldly.

The Luo family disciples bristled. Such a blatant challenge was outrageous.

“Yingxue? That’s a nice name. What a shame,” Long Chen replied, shaking his head.

The name reminded him of Bai Yingxue[1], a woman of noble grace and kind heart—completely different from the person standing before him.

Long Chen said, “Although you want to kill me, I’d advise you to wait a few days.”

“Oh? You want to live a few days longer? Want to settle your final affairs?” Bi Yingxue sneered.

Long Chen shook his head again and replied, “Right now, you might be strong, but you won’t last three moves against me.”

“You—!” Bi Yingxue was outraged. She had never seen anyone so unbelievably arrogant.

Long Chen interjected, “Once you accumulate enough kill points and undergo the totemic blessing, your power should increase. If you’re lucky, you might even be able to last ten exchanges.”

Long Chen’s calm, serious tone only enraged Bi Yingxue further. Her chest heaved with fury, and she had the overwhelming urge to kill him right now.

However, this was sacred ground within the violet blood race. If she killed Long Chen here, it would be an open provocation against the race leader’s authority and the rules set by their ancestors. Gritting her teeth, she forced herself to endure.

“When I cut off your head, I hope your mouth is still so tough.” Bi Yingxue spat out the words before turning and leaving with her people.

The Bi family disciples made throat-slitting gestures at Long Chen. He ignored them entirely, seeing such childish provocations as nothing more than the antics of dancing monkeys.

However, Luo Yanfeng and the others weren’t able to wave it off so calmly. The Bi family had oppressed the Luo family for years, forcing them to endure countless humiliations. And now, they acted like victims? It only fueled their rage.

“Long Chen, since the Bi family has given up all pretenses, why don’t we just fight them to the death on the battlefield?!” Luo Yanfeng asked, his killing intent blazing as he watched them leave.

“Of all those people, only Bi Yingxue is strong. The rest are nothing. They’re likely heading into the deeper regions of the battlefield. I doubt even half of them will return alive. If they aren’t smart enough, they might be completely wiped out. You want a battle to the death? I doubt you’ll get the chance.” Long Chen smirked.

Hearing that and thinking of the enraged elite devils they had left behind, the Luo family disciples couldn’t help but smile.

“Alright. Those who haven’t undergone the totemic blessing should hurry up. Those who have things to buy should do so now. Get some rest. Our next challenge lies deeper within the battlefield—we’ll be facing even stronger elites,” said Long Chen.

After that, Long Chen went to Luo Zichuan’s residence and handed him hundreds of Heavenly Dao Fruits before returning to the battlefield… alone.

Only on the battlefield could the Heavenly Dao Tree grasp the energy of the slain violet blood disciples and condense new Heavenly Dao Fruits.

Alone, Long Chen stepped onto the battlefield once more. His pace quickened as he delved deeper into the devil race’s territory.
