Chapter 5561: How about A Little Brain Teaser?

“Oh, young friend, hello!”

Long Chen charged forward, grinning as if greeting a friend. From an outsider’s point of view, it was like they were old friends.

However, Fantian De jumped in shock. Despite his confidence in himself, he had been fully focused on subduing the vile dragon and hadn’t noticed Long Chen’s approach.

“Don’t be afraid, I’ll help you!” Long Chen called out warmly, heading straight for the flame cage.

“Scram! Don’t mess up my affairs!” roared Fantian De.

Clearly, Fantian De didn’t recognize Long Chen or realize that this grinning troublemaker was his target. He assumed Long Chen was just another opportunist looking to suck up to him. He had seen far too many people like that.

“So, you refuse to give me face? If I want to help, do you think you can refuse?” Long Chen’s smile vanished as he turned hostile. He immediately struck one of the massive flame swords.

“Hmph, you’re courting death,” sneered Fantian De.

Fantian De watched disdainfully as Long Chen’s bare hand approached the flame sword. These swords were reinforced by the Nirvana Scripture, so even a rank-two Divine Emperor couldn’t damage them. He was certain that Long Chen would be incinerated.

However, while he patiently waited to see Long Chen turn to dust, a dragon mark appeared on Long Chen’s hand.

BANG!

The flame sword trembled violently. Long Chen remained unscathed, but the cage’s divine light dimmed. Fantian De’s expression changed dramatically as he sensed the energy of the cage flowing into Long Chen. The dragon mark on Long Chen’s hand spun rapidly, forming a vortex that sucked in the flame energy.

“What?!” shouted Fantian De.

Within the primal chaos space, Huo Linger had constructed a massive formation to channel the absorbed energy into the Fusang Trees. The trees then transferred this flame essence to the slumbering Golden Crows, whose runes slowly lit up. Such pure flame energy was the best nourishment for them.

“You are really courting death!” roared Fantian De, infuriated.

His divine statue erupted with light, pouring flame runes into the cage. It transformed into a blazing sun.

“Oh? Then let’s compete in terms of energy,” Long Chen sneered.

Seeing Fantian De want to duke it out, Long Chen felt happy. Flame runes exploded from Long Chen’s hand, dimming the cage.

Meanwhile, Fantian De’s fury seethed. He could tell that Long Chen was a flame expert and was intentionally messing with him.

However, he didn’t have the luxury of attacking Long Chen. He had no choice but to maintain his cage, or the vile dragon would escape. If that happened, all his efforts would be for naught.

Seeing Fantian De’s flushed face, Long Chen smirked. “Hey, young friend, are you constipated? Your face is red. How about a little brain teaser to lighten the mood? If a reservoir takes three hours to fill and only one hour to empty, how much water will be left in it if both the inlet and outlet are open simultaneously for one hour?”

Tang Wan-er couldn’t help but laugh when she saw Long Chen teasing Fantian De at such a time. This fellow was truly a scoundrel. Becoming his enemy was truly a sorrowful thing.

“Fuck off! Just wait for me to exterminate your whole family!” Fantian De cursed, his anger boiling over.

“Tch, you think you can do that? Let’s see if you even make it out of the Heaven Vein Mystic Realm alive,” sneered Long Chen.

“Who are you?! What’s your name?!” roared Fantian De.

“My name is Long Chen, but my friends call me Boss Long San,” declared Long Chen arrogantly.

“You are Long Chen?!”

Fantian De was shocked. He had not expected the person he wanted to kill was right in front of him.

“In the flesh. Hey, young friend, do you think you can get distracted at this moment? Then I won’t stand on courtesy!” Long Chen chuckled.

All of a sudden, Long Chen clenched his hand and ripped out a giant chunk of the flame sword.

This sudden move caused the sword to crack and the entire cage to shudder.

“Shit!”

Fantian De’s expression changed. He had been distracted by Long Chen’s name, and Long Chen grasped that opening to ruin his formation.

Although Long Chen only caused a little damage, it was enough. After all, the formation contained a terrifying beast.

Feeling the pressure on it loosening, the vile dragon immediately unleashed a ferocious counterattack.

BOOM!

The flame cage exploded. Countless runes flew through the air as the three-headed vile dragon regained his freedom.

“Little dragon friend, bite him!” Long Chen shouted encouragingly as he was blasted away by the explosion.

No one knew whether this vile dragon was really listening to Long Chen, but it roared, its three mouths unleashing beams of divine light that merged into a devastating attack aimed at Fantian De.

“Crap!” Fantian De cursed, looking pale.

The vile dragon immediately went crazy after it broke free, not giving Fantian De any chance to breathe.

In response, Fantian De rapidly formed a series of hand seals, summoning a divine diagram. The intricate diagram—depicting the sun, moon, mountains, and plains—materialized and shielded him. A figure of Lord Brahma sat meditating within the diagram, radiating divine power. This was the Brahma Divine Diagram.

BOOM!

The vile dragon’s attack collided with the diagram, causing it to shudder. The mountains and plains within warped under the immense force. From the looks of it, even the Brahma Divine Diagram was pushed to its limit to block this attack. Fortunately, it was just enough to block the full-power attack of the vile dragon.

Fantian De wiped some sweat off of his forehead. However, before he could get a chance to sigh with relief, a shadowy figure appeared beside the Brahma Divine Diagram with an evil smile, stabbing a sharp saber into the corner of the Brahma Divine Diagram.

Black qi exploded out of Evilmoon, throwing the Brahma Divine Diagram’s energy out of balance. It swelled.

“Fuck, Evilmoon, didn’t you say you could absorb its power?! How did this happen?!” Long Chen shouted.

Seeing this scene, Long Chen jumped and hastily fled.

BOOM!

Long Chen had taken a few steps when he heard a huge explosion behind him. The Brahma Divine Diagram exploded, sending Long Chen, Fantian De, and the vile dragon flying.
