Chapter 573: Chapter 573: Demon Mastiff? Isn’t that just a dog?

"Lin Chen, Senior Brother, can... can you teach me?"

Chu Jingjing looked at the fifty Flying Swords whirling around Lin Chen’s body, her eyes wide with disbelief, barely able to accept that it was real.

To control fifty Flying Swords, how powerful must one’s Divine Soul Power be.

"Want to learn? You’re not my disciple, I won’t teach you."

Lin Chen glanced at Chu Jingjing, who seemed rather ’plain and unremarkable,’ as she stared at him with adoration. He immediately teased her.

Having Refining the Flying Swords, Lin Chen was in a great mood at this moment.

"Master above, please accept your disciple’s bow."

After hearing Lin Chen’s words, Chu Jingjing changed her usual arguing with Lin Chen and knelt on both knees right away, paying respect to him as her master.

Seeing this, Lin Chen was stunned on the spot.

He had never expected that Chu Jingjing would do such a thing; it was just a joke from Lin Chen.

And seeing Chu Jingjing act this way, Yao Qinghe, Yu Weilian, and the other disciples from Divine Flame Sect were also speechless, but it was more a sense of helplessness, clearly accustomed to such oddities.

"I really don’t have the leisure to teach you, nor did I say I would take you as my disciple."

Lin Chen waved his hand grandly, and a strong Divine Soul Power immediately pulled Chu Jingjing, who was kneeling on the ground, back to her feet.

"You, you go back on your word! I’ve already knelt, even bowed my head, you have to take responsibility for me."

Chu Jingjing looked at Lin Chen with her hands on her hips, speaking in an extremely domineering manner.

Hearing this, Lin Chen felt an onset of a headache and chose to ignore her, instead turning his attention to Zhou Yuan and the others.

At this moment, Zhou Yuan and his disciples were trying hard to recover their Spiritual Power after defeating the Skeleton Frame.

Lin Chen saw this and secretly felt it was a pity because he had hoped Zhou Yuan would continue to push his disciples, providing him an opportunity to intervene.

But now, Zhou Yuan and his group had just exhausted their Spiritual Power, which might present a good opportunity to make a move.

"Hmm?"

However, just as Lin Chen was ready to disperse the fog within the Explosive Dragon Killing Formation and launch an attack on Zhou Yuan and his group, a powerful presence approached swiftly from afar.

Lin Chen ceased his action, looking up in that direction, speculating about who the newcomer was and their purpose for coming.

Soon, a group of burly men arrived at the scene.

"It’s him, Qi Jianshi!"

Yu Weilian, Yao Qinghe, and the others, watching the man with the strongest aura among the group, filled their eyes with endless hatred, then spoke to confirm his identity.

Feeling a strong intent to kill emanating from the members of Divine Flame Sect, Lin Chen also turned his head to look at the man referred to as Qi Jianshi.

The man stood ten inches taller than an average Martial Artist, with a densely hairy body. Lin Chen took a closer look at the others traveling with him and realized they were actually from the Demon Race of Luoyun Mountain Range.

"Sister Yu, do you have a grudge with this Demon Race?"

Lin Chen turned to Yu Weilian, inquiring.

Yu Weilian and Yao Qinghe, among others, showed utterly angry expressions on their faces. Then, Yu Weilian managed to calm her emotions and told Lin Chen the whole story behind the incident.

It turned out that four years ago, before Yu Weilian left the Divine Flame Sect, she was on a mission in the Luoyun Mountain Range.

There, they encountered Qi Jianshi and his men.

The opposition coveted the beauty of the Divine Flame Sect disciples. Yu Weilian and the others fought with them but were ultimately defeated and had to flee.

However, that time, five sisters from the Divine Flame Sect fell into the hands of Qi Jianshi and his men.

When Yu Weilian got in touch with the elders of the Divine Flame Sect and went to look for the sisters, they found their bodies; before their death, they had suffered inhuman torture and died extremely tragically.

However, when the elders of the Divine Flame Sect found the Demon Race, the latter didn’t give any explanation at all.

After all, Qi Jianshi was a talent of the Demon Race, ranked twenty-seventh on the earth list, and the Divine Flame Sect had only lost five disciples with mediocre talent. Why would the Demon Race bother giving an explanation?

The Divine Flame Sect was not a match for the Demon Race in strength, so naturally, they could only swallow their bitterness.

However, when an elder of the Divine Flame Sect cursed the Demon Race, saying that even though they could transform into humans, they were still beasts at heart, the people of the Demon Race immediately turned hostile and declared that the people of the Divine Flame Sect were just ants before indiscriminately slaughtering them.

Yu Weilian and the others managed to escape thanks to the delay by that elder of the Divine Flame Sect, but the elder himself was brutally killed by the Demon Race.

Upon hearing the angry words from Yu Weilian and others, Lin Chen’s gaze also became icy cold.

Qi Jianshi’s gaze fell on Yu Weilian. Four years ago, he had designs on her but failed to get his hands on her. In the end, he vented his anger on other female disciples of the Divine Flame Sect. This time, he was determined not to let Yu Weilian escape again.

"Miss Yu, since we parted last time, you seem to have become even more beautiful, and I can hardly imagine how fragrant your body must be."

Qi Jianshi’s lustful eyes roamed over Yu Weilian’s body, licking his lips as if savoring the scent in the air.

Yu Weilian felt disgusted by Qi Jianshi’s vile demeanor. Her fists clenched unconsciously, filled with rage, yet knowing she lacked the strength to confront him, she could only seek protection behind Lin Chen.

Feeling Yu Weilian’s anger and fear, Lin Chen gently took her hand, offering comfort.

"You can smell that from so far away? Could it be that you were transformed from a dog?"

Lin Chen coldly looked at Qi Jianshi, his words dripping with sarcasm.

A Demon Race Martial Artist with the upper body of a human and lower body of a four-legged beast stood out from behind Qi Jianshi and loudly rebuked Lin Chen.

"How presumptuous! Our Young Master is one of the Three-headed Mastiffs, possessing the bloodline of the ancient Demon Mastiff. You dare to equate our noble master with a lowly dog? How audacious!"

The other Demon Race soldiers also became furious upon hearing Lin Chen’s words.

Hearing this, Lin Chen couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

"Demon Mastiff? Isn’t that just a dog?"

"Get those dogs to show their true form. My cave dwelling just happens to need a guard. If you dogs look presentable enough, I might consider it."

"No, no, keeping a dog in front of my cave dwelling would just announce that there are many valuable magic treasures inside. I can’t keep one. Better to eat dog meat instead."

Lin Chen’s words were full of mockery, disdainful of Qi Jianshi.

"You insignificant ant, take your dirty hands off Miss Yu’s hand," Qi Jianshi ordered angrily.
