Nine Star Hegemon Body Arts

Chapter 5468 Arrogant

The race leader hesitated but ultimately stepped back. He understood that the dragon race only respected absolute power. If Long Chen wanted to communicate with them, he had to first convince them of his strength.

The dragon genius was further enraged by the race leader’s inaction and roared, “Since when did the great dragon race take orders from a human?! You disgust me!”

BOOM!

Blood-colored divine light erupted from his claw, a clear manifestation of the dragon race’s divine abilities.

Facing this killing blow, Long Chen remained calm and simply raised a single hand. When their palms collided, an explosive sound echoed, and four streaks of divine light shot out between them.

Mo Ying and the others were all moved when they saw this. The heavenly geniuses sealed here were the strongest in their race’s history. The sheer power behind that attack should have been overwhelming.

Yet, Long Chen didn’t even use his real strength. When their palms met, his Blood Qi concentrated into four grooves on top of his palm, causing the other side’s power to actually dissipate in four different directions. He neutralized it just like that.

Although it looked simple, executing such a move required absolute control over power, timing, and angle. A single mistake could have cost Long Chen his arm—or even his life. But he made it look casual, as if it were merely a wave of his hand. His unwavering confidence suggested he never saw this attack as a threat.

While the race leaders had been able to block this attack, they couldn’t have done so with the same ease.

“You’re quite bold for someone so weak. Who gave you the courage?” Long Chen snorted, swinging the hand that had been behind his back.

That dragon expert was still shocked by the ease with which his attack had been neutralized when Long Chen’s palm slammed into his face.

BAM!

The dragon expert was sent flying, tumbling across the ground until he fainted, his eyes rolling back in his head.

“How dare you act so arrogant in the dragon race’s territory?! Scram!”

Another heavenly genius lunged at Long Chen, only to be intercepted immediately.

BOOM!

Before the attacker’s fist could touch him, Long Chen struck the pit of his stomach with a punch. A powerful gust exploded, shredding the back of the attacker’s clothes into fluttering strips, almost like scattered butterflies.

The dragon expert instantly froze, his body stiffening as blood oozed from his mouth. Long Chen calmly placed a hand on his shoulder and pushed him away.

“Youngsters shouldn’t be arrogant when their bodies are still so stiff,” said Long Chen lightly.

Though his words chastised arrogance, Mo Ying and the other race leaders couldn’t help but find Long Chen’s actions themselves brimming with effortless arrogance.

“What right do you have to act wantonly in the dragon race’s territory?!” shouted someone.

Another expert of the dragon race immediately pounced. This one was a towering giant, his massive frame resembling an iron fortress. His foot, as large as a table, descended with crushing force toward Long Chen.

As the enormous foot was about to land on his head, Long Chen’s own foot shot out like a bolt of lightning, striking the rear of the giant’s foot.

The giant immediately lost his balance and toppled backward. Seizing the moment, Long Chen unleashed a swift kick at the giant’s crotch.

BANG!

The sound reverberated across the battlefield. In an instant, the giant went stiff, incapable of moving. His face cycled through shades of red, black, and finally purple. Pain contorted his expression into a grimace so vivid that Mo Ying had to look away, unable to endure it.

Xie Qianzhong and the others shuddered. Every man present understood the pain etched across the giant’s face.

“AHH!”

Finally, the giant let out an ear-piercing howl. The delay in his outcry wasn’t due to restraint but because the pain had been so overwhelming that he couldn’t make a sound.

“Stop screaming. I didn’t break them—they’re still intact,” Long Chen said nonchalantly.

At some point, he had appeared before the giant and placed a hand on the latter’s forehead.

The screaming ceased instantly. Mo Ying and the others tensed. The spot where Long Chen’s hand rested wasn’t just any point—it was where the dragon core was. A single touch from Long Chen could ruin the giant’s future and dignity.

Applying just enough pressure, Long Chen sent the giant spinning through the air.

When the onlookers looked at the giant, they saw that his skin was still intact. Long Chen hadn’t harmed him seriously—he had merely removed him from the battlefield.

Mo Ying quietly sighed in relief. Although she trusted Long Chen’s judgment and restraint, he was still a young man. Youth often came with impetuousness, and constant cursing could push even the most composed man to lose control. Who could guarantee that he wouldn’t accidentally take a life in the heat of the moment?

“Let me deal with you.” A commanding voice rang out as a female dragon expert charged toward Long Chen.

“There’s no need to wait. Keep going! Our time is limited,” said Long Chen, ignoring the woman.

“What?” The woman was stunned, not getting what Long Chen was saying.

“I wasn’t talking to you,” Long Chen replied sharply, his eyes flicking toward Mo Ying and the others.

Understanding his intention, Mo Ying and her companions gritted their teeth and moved to the altar. Activating the runes carved into its surface, they started the process of unsealing their races’ heavenly geniuses.

Tens of thousands of dragon eggs fell from the walls. As they shattered, more and more heavenly geniuses were freed from their seals.

BOOM!

The sound of a fierce collision rang out as Long Chen and the woman clashed. This time, it was a direct clash of dragon blood power.

The woman staggered, blood spraying from her mouth as she was sent flying.

Not waiting for her to recover, three people immediately charged at Long Chen.

“Human, you’re too arrogant!”

“You call this arrogant? You’re too inexperienced. Stick around—I’ll show you what real arrogance looks like,” Long Chen sneered.

He met each of them with a single, devastating punch, effortlessly sending all three tumbling back. These heavenly geniuses of the dragon race had just awoken, and their dragon blood was still sluggish. At best, they could only release fifty percent of their full power, making them no match for Long Chen.

Meanwhile, more and more geniuses emerged from their seals, and their strength began to recover rapidly. Those charging at Long Chen grew stronger with every moment.

Yet, no matter how powerful they became, Long Chen swatted them aside with the same ease, as though he were dealing with unruly children. Suddenly, an overwhelming sharp aura erupted from the crowd, accompanied by a thunderous shout.

“Human, your arrogance ends here!”
