Nine Star Hegemon Body Arts-Chapter 5928 Good News

Unfortunately, his treasure trove of medicinal ingredients in the primal chaos space had all withered and could not be sold. He also hadn’t been refining pills lately, so he had nothing of equivalent value to offer in exchange for the Sovereign Lord corpses. But considering how urgently he needed them, he had no choice but to thicken his face and ask.

With a smile, Lu Zhongshi replied, “Even if you weren’t one of the Huayun Trading Company’s highest-level guests, I would still be willing to sell them to you on credit.”

“Oh? Why is that?”

Lu Zhongshi’s smile widened. “You’re just a Heaven Saint, yet you defeated one of Yan Xu’s four divine guards and nearly killed him. How could I miss the opportunity to befriend someone with such terrifying potential?”

“You—!”

Long Chen was stunned. Lu Zhongshi actually knew about the battle in the Undying Demon Forest? It was as if he had witnessed it firsthand.

Lu Zhongshi waved his hand casually, dismissing Long Chen’s worry.

He said, “As businessmen, we must have sharp senses. Your battle caused such a disturbance that there’s no way we wouldn’t have noticed. One reason the Huayun Trading Company thrives in the nine heavens is thanks to the Wealth God’s guidance and blessing. But another key factor is our intelligence network. Without it, we wouldn’t have been able to resist the pressure from Lord Brahma—we’d have been devoured by the competition.”

Seeing Long Chen gradually calm down, Lu Zhongshi continued, “After your battle, the Brahma line, the Yan Xu faction, and even the Devil Eye Water Lily race’s lackeys immediately issued kill orders for you, claiming you’re a nine star heir. The Undying Demon Forest now serves as a bloody warning to anyone who dares harbor you.”

Long Chen clenched his fists. These bastards had failed to capture him, so now they used their small victory to pressure others.

With this, the Devil Eye Water Lily race would be considered simply carrying out orders. Anyone could see that they had the support of the Brahma and Yan Xu factions. That would make it easier for them to unify the vegetative demon race under their banner.

Everyone knew that Lord Brahma had been hunting down nine star heirs over countless years. Associating with one was tantamount to declaring war against him.

On the surface, it looked like they were killing a chicken to scare the monkeys. But in truth, it was Lian Sanqiang’s tactic to emotionally burden Long Chen, making him feel like he had dragged the Undying Demon Forest to its doom.

And now, with this pretense, Lian Sanqiang had a terrifying weapon in his hand. Anyone he wanted to eliminate could be accused of colluding with a nine star heir. He could commit any atrocity for that reason.

This would definitely put immense pressure on the vegetative demon race. With the destruction of the Undying Demon Forest and this looming threat, they would be left with no choice but to bow to Lian Sanqiang.

Just thinking of that smug face made Long Chen grind his teeth. That despicable man was the greatest winner of the battle.

Lian Sanqiang was surely using this momentum to bring countless vegetative demon factions to his side. The thought made Long Chen’s blood boil.

“Senior, can you let me see those two corpses?” asked Long Chen, suppressing his anger.

...

Within an underground storage room, Long Chen saw two mountain-sized corpses.

The first was over three hundred meters tall with eight wings, exuding a heaven-shaking devil qi. This was a humanoid Heaven Devil. Even with formations suppressing it, its Sovereign aura made Long Chen’s soul tremble.

This eight-winged Heaven Devil had a large hole in its chest. The edges of the wound were unnaturally smooth, as though pierced by something incredibly sharp.

Long Chen examined it more closely and came to the conclusion that this terrifying eight-wing Heaven Devil had been killed by this attack. Just what kind of existence could kill a Sovereign Lord in one blow?

The second corpse was that of a resonant dragon from the primal chaos era. However, it differed from the resonant dragons Long Chen knew—its head was wider, and it had fin-like black wings. Two horns grew from its head, and each one split into three branches, giving it six horn-tips from a distance.

“It’s a mutated species?” Long Chen asked, surprised.

This resonant dragon’s aura wasn’t purely draconic—it was either a mutated or hybrid species.

Its aura was also terrifying. Strangely, there were no wounds on its body—only a single handprint on its forehead.

Did... someone shatter its Yuan Spirit with their palm?

A chill ran down Long Chen’s spine. He looked closer at the mark—it was unmistakably a human handprint.

To shatter this resonant dragon’s Yuan Spirit with a single palm, without damaging its skull? That required absolute superiority.

Long Chen sucked in a cold breath of air. It felt like he could see the fighting scene of those peerless experts from the primal chaos era.

“To tell the truth, these two corpses have been sitting here for quite some time. Not many people are interested in a Heaven Devil’s corpse. While the six-horn resonant dragon might be well preserved, its mutation makes its runes incomprehensible to most. If you want them, you can have them. It’ll free up our storage,” said Lu Zhongshi.

“What? I can’t just take them!” Long Chen exclaimed in shock.

“You’re our most honored guest. Take them. Other than that, I have a piece of information you might find even more valuable,” Lu Zhongshi said with a smile.

“Oh? What is it?” Long Chen asked, his curiosity piqued.

“Our Huayun Trading Company doesn’t really get involved with this kind of business. But there’s another trading company that has been heavily invested in it for a long time.”

“Which company?”

“The Soaring Dragon Trading Company.”
