The extreme demonic qi almost immediately engaged in fierce confrontation with the Li Fire essence inside Luo Chen’s body upon entering.
Both forces were terrifying existences, using Luo Chen’s body as a battlefield. Under the first clash, had Luo Chen not mobilised the power of the Taihuang Scripture to envelop both forces, he would likely have disintegrated in a single exchange. Subsequently, Luo Chen hurriedly exerted all his strength to suppress these two forces.
But these two forces, one was like a kun peng striking upward toward the nine heavens, the other was like an azure dragon seeking to engulf the yellow springs.
Under constant impact, Luo Chen’s entire person swayed precariously, forcing him to continuously mobilise power to suppress them. This was not due to Luo Chen’s own carelessness, but rather the Li Fire essence and extreme demonic qi being mutually antagonistic, causing such an occurrence. Even Luo Chen himself had not anticipated this.
Only after half an hour did Luo Chen, his face pale, leap out from the underground tomb.
The moment Luo Chen emerged, Lan Beier and Zi Yuan had already quickly run before him. They knew nothing of the underground tomb matters, but had come to deliver news to Luo Chen.
The Wolf King’s letter of challenge had caused the entire nation to boil over.
This news spread across the internet and various places like wind and fire.
It directly sparked heated discussion. After all, Luo Chen was already an extremely attention-grabbing figure. Coupled with the matter of making the Yang family of the Dragon Guardians apologise, which had already caused a tremendous stir. Now suddenly with the Wolf King’s letter of challenge, almost the entire nation’s gaze focused upon Luo Chen.
Lan Beier and the others had been waiting on the periphery for Luo Chen. After waiting for a long time, seeing Luo Chen come up, they approached at the first opportunity.
“Luo Chen, the Wolf King has come.” Lan Beier spoke, looking at Luo Chen.
After all, when Luo Chen had spoken of the Wolf King previously, he had rarely shown a trace of seriousness, so Lan Beier still felt somewhat worried.
“He’s come?” Luo Chen’s brow furrowed. Precisely at this time.
But Luo Chen had only just finished speaking these words when his expression changed once more.
“Cough, cough cough.” Fresh blood coughed from Luo Chen’s mouth, directly staining the green grass before his eyes red.
The two forces still fought within his body. He could only temporarily suppress them. If he wished to refine them, it might require far too long.
But just now, his direct domineering suppression of these two forces in the underground palace had still been somewhat taxing for Luo Chen. At this moment he actually could not help coughing up blood.
Luo Chen coughing up blood was no small matter, but it shocked everyone.
“You’re injured?” Two voices rang out almost simultaneously. They were Lan Beier and Zi Yuan’s.
The big shots standing somewhat further away also wore faces of shock.
Luo Wuji was injured?
“It’s nothing serious.” Luo Chen waved his hand. Luo Chen spoke the truth. He was not actually injured. This was merely a form of release after the clash between the two forces.
Only, in this manner, he must expend most of his strength to suppress these two forces. His combat power definitely could not be maintained at peak condition. He might possibly only be able to exert thirty or forty percent of his combat power.
“Let’s go back and rest first.” Luo Chen spoke to the two of them. The most pressing matter before his eyes was still suppressing the confrontation between these two forces.
Luo Chen’s attitude and the scene just now immediately caused everyone a burst of astonishment.
Could it be that Luo Wuji was truly injured?
Otherwise why would he cough up blood and be eager to go back and rest?
Online, discussion had originally still been heated, because the Wolf King had come. Although almost everyone knew nothing of the Wolf King’s background.
But there were still those who knew, and it was revealed.
“What?”
“The one who broke Napoleon the Great’s invasion was actually the Wolf King?”
After everyone heard this news, they were thoroughly shaken.
How powerful was this?
“Can Luo Wuji win this time?” Many people raised the question.
After all, merely the achievement of repelling Napoleon the Great’s invasion was sufficient to prove just how powerful the Wolf King was.
“I think it’s uncertain.” Someone expressed worry, and made a rational analysis.
“Hmph, who do you think Luo Wuji is?”
“Even Qing Mang was no match for him. Last time that foreign expert wasn’t still slapped to the ground with a single palm?” Someone else stated their position, producing evidence.
But very quickly, someone revealed information.
“That foreign expert last time was the Wolf King’s guard.”
This news once again caused a wave of small-scale shock and heated discussion.
“Luo Wuji can definitely win. This is beyond doubt.”
“Luo Wuji is victorious in every battle each time. How could he lose this time?”
The outside world began fierce heated discussion.
Until evening, this heated discussion gradually cooled down.
But an even more explosive piece of news was revealed again.
This news left the nation’s people dumbstruck.
Luo Wuji was injured in Nanling.
Luo Wuji was injured in Nanling?
“How is this possible?”
“Luo Wuji is injured precisely at this time?”
Very quickly the news was confirmed.
Luo Wuji went underground in Nanling, did not emerge for a long time, and subsequently came up coughing blood, his entire person listless and dispirited.
“It’s true.”
“The matter of Luo Wuji coughing up blood, my uncle saw it personally on the scene.”
“Absolutely true, my father also saw it on the scene.” Some second-generation heirs from prominent families stepped forward to confirm personally.
Subsequently, several big shots directly stepped forward to clarify matters.
“Mr. Luo coughing up blood is true, but whether he is injured or not, everyone should not speculate wildly.”
The result was that not clarifying would have been fine, but the clarification instead made things grow increasingly intense.
This was clearly coming out to speak on Luo Chen’s behalf, but it had the opposite effect, instead causing many people to begin doubting.
In Su Lingchu’s office in Longdu, Su Lingchu was currently bent over revising documents.
Only he too had been worried lately. After all, the Wolf King was already preparing to set out, and would arrive at the grasslands within days.
At that time, his battle with Luo Chen would certainly shake the world.
Moreover, the Wolf King was not someone like Qing Mang and the others. He was someone who truly possessed strength and capability.
After all, he was the king of the werewolf clan, with boundless combat power and terrifying might.
Even though Luo Chen had always been invincible, Su Lingchu still could not help but feel somewhat worried.
It had caused his eyelid to twitch constantly lately.
And precisely at this time, a guard quickly ran in.
“General Su, something terrible has happened. Luo Wuji is injured.”
“Nonsense, how could he possibly be injured?” Su Lingchu stood up and rebuked him. He understood Luo Chen’s power better than anyone. With the orthodox mysterious gates in the country currently sealed in seclusion and not emerging, who had the ability to injure Luo Chen?
“It’s true.” The guard nodded seriously.
“True?” Su Lingchu looked at the guard’s serious expression, and his face immediately changed.
Subsequently this news was relayed to Su Lingchu without any omission.
Su Lingchu called Luo Chen at the first opportunity to verify.
But at this moment Luo Chen’s phone was busy.
“Quickly, prepare the car. I must go find him personally.” Su Lingchu’s expression revealed unprecedented gravity. This was no joke. At this critical juncture when he was about to fight a decisive battle with the Wolf King, if Luo Chen was injured, what would happen then?
