The practitioners who were able to enter the Martial Tomb were all geniuses among their peers. They still had a long way to go as practitioners in the future, so they naturally did not want to die. Moreover, facing an opponent like Yang Qi who was destined to be invincible, they were naturally unwilling to do such a completely meaningless thing.
Long Kun and his companions retreated violently and quickly left the battlefield. The cultivator who was fighting with Long Xiao and his companions not far away also left the battlefield. Facing Long Kun and his companions who were about to retreat, no one had any intention of stopping them.
"Hmph~"
Long Kun snorted coldly, his eyes fell on Yang Qi, and then he said coldly, "Let's go!"
Whoosh~ Whoosh~
The next moment, Long Kun and his group of more than 20 people turned into streams of light and disappeared into the depths of the Blood Demon Sea.
Seeing Long Kun and the others leave, Long Su hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Brother Long Qi, are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Yang Qi shook his head slightly. He didn't use his full strength to deal with Long Kun and the others. He just burst out the strength of an ordinary nine-star Martial Emperor. Naturally, he couldn't have any effect.
Hearing this, Long Su and the others couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Long Xiao on the side asked with a little curiosity, "Brother Long Qi, the strength you just burst out..."
"I just used a secret technique to temporarily restore my strength to its peak, so I was able to burst out with such strength." Yang Qi explained.
When everyone heard this, they didn't find it strange. In fact, they had also guessed this, so they didn't feel surprised when they heard Yang Qi's explanation.
“Brother Long Qi, if you use your secret technique in your current situation, will it be possible…” Long Lang looked at Yang Qi and said.
Yang Qi is already injured, and if he uses the secret technique again, it is likely to worsen the injury, and it will be more difficult for him to recover in the future.
Hearing this, Yang Qi couldn't help but smile and explained, "I couldn't care less about that in the situation just now. Besides, my bloodline was damaged, not my strength was forcibly increased, so the impact on me was not that great."
Everyone nodded slightly. Yang Qi's situation was somewhat special. He was not an ordinary eight-star martial emperor who used secret methods to forcibly improve his strength. If that was the case, the side effects would definitely be huge. However, even if Yang Qi only used the secret method to temporarily recover to his peak, it would definitely have some impact. However, in the situation just now, Long Kun and others wanted to kill Yang Qi, so naturally they didn't care about that much.
Looking at Yang Qi in front of him, Long Lang said apologetically, "Brother Long Qi, Long Kun and others attacked you probably because you sold the Dragon Martial Talisman to us before. They didn't dare to go to war with us directly, so they attacked you."
Yang Qi himself had no conflict with the Dongyang Marquis lineage, and the two sides had only come into contact twice, in the previous ruins and now. This time, Long Kun and others attacked Yang Qi shortly after the transaction of the Longwu Talisman, most likely because of the Longwu Talisman.
Long Su's eyes narrowed, and he said in a deep voice, "The lineage of the Marquis of Dongyang is really overbearing. They actually want to kill people for this reason."
"They just want to kill a chicken to scare the monkeys. The family behind me doesn't have much power, so they naturally don't have to worry about the Dongyang Marquis lineage." Yang Qi said calmly.
When Long Kun and others attacked him, he had already guessed their intention. Not only did they want to kill him, but they also wanted to use him to establish their authority so that other branches would not dare to easily support the Zhendong King lineage.
Yang Qi looked at Long Xiao and the others who were slightly blaming themselves, and said with a faint smile, "But there is no need to worry too much. It is not so easy for them to deal with us."
After the strength he showed this time, Long Kun and others might have to think twice before they could attack him again. After all, to deal with him, they had to send out a cultivator at the level of a Nine-Star Martial Emperor. Although the Dongyang Marquis lineage had a Nine-Star Martial Emperor in the Martial Tomb, there were not many of them, so they might not be willing to draw forces to deal with him.
"Let's leave here first. If we encounter a branch of our star field in the future, we must be careful." Long Lang said in a deep voice.
It was very likely that their location was notified to Long Kun and others by a cultivator who had defected to the lineage of Dongyang Hou. There was no guarantee that such a situation would not occur again. Therefore, if they encountered other cultivators' teams next time, they had to be more careful and not be completely unprepared.
Whoosh~ Whoosh~
Immediately, Yang Qi and others did not stay any longer. They flashed and turned into streams of light and disappeared into the Blood Demon Sea.
…
"Failed?"
The man in brocade clothes was slightly stunned when he received the message from Long Kun. This result was obviously beyond his expectations. After all, it was a team. More than ten eight-star martial emperors attacked together, but they couldn't kill an eight-star martial emperor. This was something he didn't expect.
The man in brocade clothes focused his eyes, and a gleam of brilliance flashed in the depths of his eyes, "The strength has reached the level of a nine-star martial emperor, or even stronger?"
The practitioners at the Nine-Star Martial Emperor level who were able to enter the Martial Tomb were generally branches of the Marquis or above. The man in brocade clothes had some understanding of the practitioners at this level, but had never heard of the name Long Qi.
"No wonder Long Kun and his team failed!"
Knowing that Yang Qi possessed the strength of a nine-star Martial Emperor, the man in brocade clothes was naturally not surprised by the failure of Long Kun and others. After all, the practitioners who attacked Yang Qi were all eight-star Martial Emperors and could not be a match for a nine-star Martial Emperor.
The man in brocade clothes raised his eyebrows and muttered to himself, "What is the origin of this Long Qi? Is he a descendant of a hidden family?"
The Longwu Dynasty existed for a long time, and during this long period of time, except for the royal family, almost all other branches have undergone changes. Some powerful branches declined and eventually disappeared in the long river of history, while some weak branches continued to grow stronger and eventually became a powerful branch. This kind of thing is extremely common in the history of the Longwu Dynasty.
Some branches, as they continue to decline, will hide themselves and continue their inheritance so that they don't have to worry about being disturbed by the outside world or invaded by foreign enemies. Some loners or extremely weak branches get some opportunities to hide themselves and develop, thus forming hidden families.
Practitioners from hidden families can also enter the Wu Tomb if they are recognized by the royal family, because the biggest restriction of the Wu Tomb is the bloodline of the Long family. As long as there is no problem with the bloodline, they can enter the Wu Tomb. Compared with other branches, the hidden family is undoubtedly the most mysterious, because they hardly communicate with the outside world, and outsiders' understanding of them is also extremely limited.
The man in brocade clothes had never heard of the name Long Qi, and as Long Qi was quite powerful, he immediately guessed that Long Qi might be from a secluded family. Unfortunately, what he didn't know was that Yang Qi was not a cultivator from the Long family at all.
A gleam of brilliance flashed in the eyes of the man in brocade clothes, and he said slowly, "To be able to cultivate a cultivator like Long Qi, the strength of this hidden family must be quite strong!" (To be continued)
