Chapter 610: Chapter 610: Long Time No See, Brother

The atmosphere inside Dragon Beast City had already turned extremely heavy. The entire place was filled with killing intent and pressure from both sides.

The members of Teng Clan were glaring coldly at Xuan Long while surrounding him from every direction, afraid that the moment they loosened their guard, this terrifying snake would immediately escape from their hands.

Meanwhile, Xuan Long stood there silently with the Beast Suppression Lock wrapped tightly around his neck. The black suppressing lock emitted faint dark patterns that continuously suppressed the beast power inside him. Even standing still was already causing him immense pain.

But strangely enough, his face remained frighteningly calm.

Aside from the redness on his eyes, there was nothing else that could suggest that he was in immense pain.

His cold emerald eyes swept across every single member of the Teng Clan one by one. That gaze alone made many elders instinctively stiffen.

Because everyone could clearly see the meaning inside his eyes.

Once this Beast Suppression Lock was removed... He would definitely kill them.

Teng Siyan naturally noticed that look too. His lips twitched slightly from anger and helplessness. Honestly speaking, even he was beginning to feel exhausted facing this nephew of his.

This brat was simply too stubborn.

They had already stayed in this lower domain for far too long, yet Xuan Long refused to move even a single step away from Dragon Beast City.

No matter how much Teng Siyan pressured him, threatened him, or tried to reason with him, the result remained exactly the same.

Xuan Long simply stood there coldly without cooperating.

Teng Siyan truly felt speechless.

What exactly was so good about this poor lower domain?

Compared to the Upper Domain, this place was practically a barren wasteland.

Yet Xuan Long looked as if he was rooted here.

Teng Siyan narrowed his eyes while observing him carefully again.

At first, when Xuan Long saw his family captured and his cub crying painfully, Teng Siyan had clearly seen the breakdown and despair on his face. At that time, his nephew had looked like a beast pushed to complete madness.

But after that...

Xuan Long had suddenly calmed down. So calm that even Teng Siyan felt a strange chill in his heart.

The current Xuan Long looked like a silent storm. The more silent he became, the more dangerous he felt.

Teng Siyan frowned unconsciously.

Meanwhile, Xuan Long himself remained completely silent because his mind was no longer focused on the Teng Clan.

A strange feeling had appeared inside his chest earlier. It was very faint. But he had sensed something.

For one small moment, he had suddenly felt a familiar aura.

That feeling disappeared quickly afterward, yet his instincts kept screaming at him not to leave this place.

Someone was coming.

His fingers slowly tightened unconsciously.

Could it be...

An Mo?

Had he already returned? 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Xuan Long did not know why that thought suddenly appeared inside his mind, but for some reason, he could not suppress the tiny flicker of hope rising in his chest.

At the same time, his gaze slowly fell onto Xiao San.

The little cub’s face was pale from crying earlier. Tears had already dried on his cheeks, and his small body looked exhausted after suffering from the Beast Suppression Lock.

The moment Xuan Long looked at his son, another terrifying resolve appeared in his heart.

Even if he left with the Teng Clan... He would absolutely never allow Xiao San to leave this place.

If they wanted to take him away from here, then they could only do it on his dead body.

That was his final bottom line.

Teng Clan naturally rejected this condition immediately.

How could they possibly leave behind the youngest heir of the Teng Clan in such a weak lower domain?

That was impossible.

Especially after seeing Xiao San’s talent personally. The child’s bloodline was terrifyingly pure.

Even Teng Siyan himself felt shocked after sensing it. If this cub returned to Teng Clan, the entire clan would probably go crazy with excitement.

How could they possibly leave him behind?

Thus both sides remained in deadlock.

Xuan Long refused to leave without his son staying behind. Teng Clan refused to leave Xiao San behind.

The atmosphere became heavier and heavier.

Finally, Teng Siyan lost his patience.

"Xuan Long," he said coldly, "do not force me further."

Xuan Long slowly raised his eyes toward him without speaking.

Teng Siyan narrowed his eyes before continuing in a threatening tone, "If you still refuse to cooperate, then I will have no choice but to place the Beast Suppression Lock on the cub again."

The moment those words fell, Xuan Long’s pupils instantly shrank.

A terrifying killing intent exploded from his body.

Boom!

Even while suppressed, the pressure leaking from him still made many Teng Clan members step back nervously.

Teng Siyan’s expression stiffened slightly too. But he still continued coldly, "You know I can do it."

Xuan Long’s jaw clenched tightly. His fists trembled faintly. He truly wanted to tear Teng Siyan apart right now.

Yet the moment he remembered Xiao San crying painfully earlier, his killing intent slowly suppressed itself again. Because he truly did not dare risk letting Teng Clan touch his cub again.

Seeing him fall silent, Teng Siyan finally relaxed slightly inwardly.

At least this nephew still had weakness.

But just at that moment...

A loud, arrogant voice suddenly rang out from behind them.

"Elder Teng, I never thought the Teng Clan would become so shameless that they would actually use Beast Suppression Locks on a cub who is not even a year old."

The voice paused slightly before continuing mockingly.

"Truly disgraceful."

The moment those words echoed through the area, the expressions of all Teng Clan elders changed instantly.

Especially Teng Siyan. His face darkened heavily. Because everyone recognized that voice immediately.

Not far away, a tall figure was walking toward them leisurely.

The man’s posture was straight like a pine tree, calm and elegant, yet every movement carried indescribable arrogance. His luxurious black robes fluttered slightly under the night wind while golden patterns shone faintly on the fabric.

His handsome face held a lazy smile.

But the pressure surrounding him made everyone instinctively nervous.

Especially the golden emblem on his sleeves. The symbol of the God Clan.

The moment Teng Siyan saw him clearly, his expression became uglier.

"The young heir of the God Clan...Lord An Mo," he said coldly through clenched teeth. "What a surprise."

The man only smiled lightly. "I could say the same," he replied casually.

Teng Siyan’s eyes darkened. He truly never expected this person to appear in such a remote lower domain.

The God Clan rarely interfered with outside matters, especially not lower-domain affairs. Yet now their young lord personally appeared here. This immediately made Teng Siyan feel something was wrong.

Meanwhile, Xuan Long’s taut body finally relaxed, and a flicker of a smile appeared on his face.

Teng Siyan sneered coldly. "Young Lord An Mo truly has leisure time. Instead of staying comfortably in the Upper Domain, you came all the way here to meddle in Teng Clan’s business?"

An Mo laughed lightly as if hearing something amusing.

"Meddle?"

His golden eyes slowly swept across Xiao San, who still looked frightened in Teng Siyan’s arms.

Then his smile faded slightly.

"If your Teng Clan’s business involves torturing a child," he said calmly, "then I really cannot pretend not to see it."

Teng Siyan’s expression instantly became ugly.

Meanwhile, An Mo’s gaze slowly shifted toward Xuan Long. For one brief second, both men looked at each other silently.

Then An Mo suddenly smiled again.

"Long time no see, brother," he said lazily.
