Supreme Dragon Lord-Chapter 339 Antique Shop

The others were all shocked when they saw Lu Dachui bowing and scraping like that. They never would have expected the local bully before them to be kowtowing to a mere boy.

After all, this Lu Dachui was a famous tyrant in the region. Who wouldn’t turn and flee at the mere mention of his name? No one had ever dared to offend Lu Dachui because anyone who did so never came to a good end.

However, shocking as it was, the men quickly snapped back to reality.

"Please show us mercy and spare us!" they all bowed in unison, pleading respectfully with Long Chen.

Faced with their pleas, Long Chen remained expressionless, turning a deaf ear to their words. But the more he remained silent, the more panicked Lu Dachui and his men became. They couldn’t grasp what Long Chen was thinking, nor did they know what he would do next.

The scene fell into a brief, deathly silence.

Lu Dachui swallowed hard. He plucked up his courage and said to Long Chen, "Brother, we really didn’t mean to cross you. Our initial intention in stopping you was simply to ask about the whereabouts of a man and a woman. We had been chasing them this way but lost their trail. Then we ran into you, so we just wanted to ask. We had no hostile intentions, really."

"So now you’re scared, and you’re just fabricating an excuse to fob me off?" Long Chen asked coolly, his contemptuous gaze looking down on him.

"It’s true!" Lu Dachui’s heart quivered. He hurriedly continued to explain, "Everything I just said is the absolute truth, not a single word is false. If you don’t believe me, I can provide proof."

With that, Lu Dachui promptly pulled two portraits from within his robes.

When Long Chen saw the portraits, his eyes narrowed slightly. They depicted a man and a woman: Tang Le and Long Xin.

They aren’t in the Martial Ancestor. How did they also get to the God-Devil Domain?

Long Chen casually withdrew his gaze, swept it over the men, and then slowly said, "I see."

Seeing that Long Chen appeared convinced, Lu Dachui immediately felt a wave of relief, and his tense heart slowly began to relax.

Long Chen asked them, "Why are you pursuing them?"

Lu Dachui chuckled. "To be honest with you, those two not only stole our things but also injured our men. That’s why we’re hunting them down—to make them pay a heavy price for their actions!"

Just as Lu Dachui finished speaking, another subordinate chimed in, "Also, our second-in-command has taken a fancy to that woman and wants to make her our sister-in-law!"

Survival instincts kicked in! To curry favor with Long Chen, the subordinate had blatantly exposed Lu Dachui’s personal intentions. Hearing this, the other men also snickered.

COUGH, COUGH!

Lu Dachui shot a cold glare at them over his shoulder. Feeling his gaze, they were startled and quickly suppressed their laughter, forcing it down.

After learning of Lu Dachui’s intentions, Long Chen’s eyes narrowed to slits.

Sensing a chill emanating from Long Chen, Lu Dachui gave a sycophantic laugh. "Brother, that girl is a real stunner! If you’ve also taken a liking to her, I can bear the pain of giving her up. Once we catch her, I’ll personally deliver her right to you!"

Long Chen smiled faintly.

Thinking his words had perfectly appealed to Long Chen, Lu Dachui also burst into hearty laughter. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"Brother, it seems we’re kindred spirits! Are you interested in joining us? If you’re willing, I’ll gladly give you my position as second-in-command. I’d willingly become the third-in-command. I believe that with you and the Head of the family leading us, our group will surely achieve greatness!" Lu Dachui invited with utmost sincerity.

In his eyes, the formidable Long Chen was a powerful backer he had to secure. If he could seize this chance to bind their group to Long Chen, they could live a life of luxury in the future.

The other men were astonished to hear Lu Dachui’s invitation. However, they were more than willing to have Long Chen join them. After all, they had witnessed his immense strength firsthand. Who would refuse the addition of an expert?

"Very good," Long Chen nodded firmly, a thick killing intent already showing in his eyes.

Seeing this, Lu Dachui laughed heartily. The others joined in, overjoyed. With Long Chen on their side, their team would be like a tiger that had grown wings.

"Now that you’ve explained everything, it’s time to send you on your way," Long Chen said with a sinister smile.

WHAT?!

Lu Dachui’s face went blank, his mind reeling with confusion. The expressions on the other subordinates’ faces instantly froze. The scene plunged into a brief, deathly silence.

Thinking he had misheard, Lu Dachui tentatively asked, "Brother, did you just...?"

Before he could finish, Long Chen slammed a palm onto his head.

BANG!

A dull thud echoed as blood splattered everywhere. Lu Dachui’s head instantly burst open like a smashed melon. His headless body staggered a few steps before collapsing stiffly to the ground.

"AHH?!"

Witnessing this, the remaining men were all dumbstruck, their hearts leaping into their throats. None of them had expected Long Chen to suddenly attack and kill Lu Dachui. Weren’t they just having a pleasant chat? How did it escalate to violence so quickly? And with such brutal, vicious methods!

Watching Lu Dachui’s severed head roll in front of them, they turned pale with fright and finally snapped out of their shock.

"RUN!" one of the men yelled as he spun around.

Hearing him, the others immediately turned to flee.

Long Chen thrust out his palm. A Palm Shadow rapidly expanded, blasting toward the fleeing men.

"AHHH—"

A series of screams rang out. The men could not escape Long Chen’s grasp and were instantly reduced to pools of blood. The air filled with the thick, coppery stench of blood.

After dealing with them, Long Chen departed immediately. He now knew that Tang Le and Long Xin had also come to the God-Devil Domain, though he was still unsure of their current whereabouts.

With a flicker, Long Chen’s figure vanished, and he headed in the direction Lu Dachui’s group had been searching.

He hadn’t gone far before he noticed a small town ahead. His eyes lit up.

The easiest way to evade pursuit is to blend into a crowd. Perhaps Tang Le and Long Xin are here. This is also a good opportunity for me to rest.

With this in mind, Long Chen headed straight for the town. After passing through the checkpoint at the gate, he continued inside. Soon, he arrived at the market. It was packed with people and bustling with activity—a world of difference from the desolate outskirts.

The streets of the market were lined with vendors selling all sorts of things. Everything one could wish for was available. Long Chen glanced over the goods before looking away, uninterested.

But just as he was about to pass an antique shop, he suddenly stopped in his tracks. From within the shop, he seemed to sense a familiar power.
