"Azure Hydra, how're your injuries?." Ling Chen suddenly asked as he was looking at the nine-headed mountainous serpent in front of him.
So far, this Nine-Headed Hydra was the physically largest demon beast which Ling Chen had ever seen in his life. Its sheer size made it look like numerous gigantic mountain from far away.
In front of the Nine-Headed Hydra, the deceased Saint Beast Bai Wudi seemed like nothing more than a babe or a midget in front of a giant. The difference was truly astounding.
In the endless darkness within Ling Chen's lower-dantian, only its nine heads and necks could be seen coiling around the trunk of the dark tree while the rest of its body was hidden in the darkness.
The entire body of the Nine-Headed Hydra was densely covered with blue armor-like scales, and all of the scales on its body were patterned in a very orderly, regimented manner from top to bottom.
Each scale was glittering with the reflected cold, azure light. The scales alone were stunning and frightening to behold.
"Pop!" Upon hearing Ling Chen's voice, the Nine-Headed Hydra suddenly opened its nine pairs of gigantic scarlet eyes, seemingly adding nine pairs of red suns in the endless dark void which was Ling Chen's lower-dantian.
The red light coming from them clearly illuminated the area. It was quite terrifying and intimidating. Even the most powerful Martial Saints would feel their legs giving in when they met its gaze.
The Nine-Headed Hydra's cold gaze seemed to have to power to drain someone's soul away. Its eyes were so cold that it could cause someone to utterly freeze. However, Ling Chen was completely unaffected by its gaze.
After the Nine-Headed Hydra scanned its surroundings, it finally noticed the tiny existence of Ling Chen far away.
"Master, you are back. I thought you forgot about me." Suddenly, an ancient voice slowly rang out from the darkness as the Nine-Headed Hydra spoke.
At the same time, one of the nine heads of the Nine-Headed Hydra minutely moved and uncoiled around the dark tree trunk using a nimbleness that did not seem to belong to such a gigantic body.
"Xshh…" Hissing could be heard as one of the heads of the giant Hydra started moving closer towards Ling Chen.
In less than a second, its immense head appeared in front of Ling Chen. Its giant head towered over Ling Chen just like a mountain.
Its massive head was the height of a building with six or seven floors. Compared with the head of the massive Nine-Headed Hydra, Ling Chen seemed like a little toy or little bug. The scene was somewhat comical.
The Nine-Headed Hydra was a powerful demon beast that Ling Chen had tamed before coming to the Heaven Suppression Region.
The Nine-Headed Hydra was a Nine Tribulation Demon Saint and Ling Chen had spent a whole day and night battling the beast in the depth of the Divine Demon Beast Region before subduing it.
However, after that battle, the Nine-Headed Hydra was badly injured and had to go into hibernation to recover. As his contracted demon beast, Ling Chen had the power to summon it within the dark void within his lower-dantian.
Furthermore, the Nine-Headed Hydra wasn't that big. It only grew that size after slumbering within the dark void in Ling Chen's lower-dantian over the past three years. It seemed like coiling around the dark tree trunk as well as the dark energy within Ling Chen's lower-dantian was very beneficial to it.
Aside from being the physically largest demon beast which Ling Chen had ever seen in his life, the Nine-Headed Hydra was also the strongest opponent he had ever faced, except for the Demi-God bastard.
"All my injuries are healed now, master." The Nine-Headed Hydra added.
"If that's the case, it's time for you to go out. I also have a mission for you." Ling Chen said with a wicked smile on his face.
Before the Nine-Headed Hydra could even answer, its massive body suddenly disappeared from the dark void within Ling Chen's lower dantian.
Having kicked out the Nine-Headed Hydra within his lower-dantian, Ling Chen suddenly opened his eyes and saw a blue hair woman respectfully standing in front of him.
This blue haired woman had an exceptionally charming feature. Her eyes had vertical slits for pupils and looked as if they were made of a ceramic glaze that would let one see through to its bottom.
The blue-haired woman was now filled with elegance and grandeur typical to a noble or a princess. Her previous original savage and terrifying aura had dulled down after taking a human form. However, Ling Chen knew how terrifying this woman was. This graceful demeanor was a facade, concealing the bloodthirst and a ferocious beast within.
"What is the mission master?." The blue-haired woman asked in a respectful tone.
After becoming the contracted demon beast of Ling Chen, the Nine-Headed Hydra was very respectful towards Ling Chen. Not to mention, she had also tasted the terrifying power of Ling Chen.
Furthermore, even though Ling Chen was disguising himself as an old monk, she could tell that this old monk was his master.
"I want you to protect the two humans that are sleeping in the room upstairs tonight while I am away. I am not expecting any visitor, so you can kill or eat anyone who dares to approach the temple tonight." Ling Chen said in a commanding tone.
Upon hearing Ling Chen's order, the blue-haired woman slightly bowed to Ling Chen before saying in a cold and respectful tone." You can count on me, master."
After explaining a few more things to the blue-haired woman, Ling Chen left for the Long Family's patriarch birthday party. With the Nine-Headed Hydra protecting Wanxue and Little Wei, even the patriarch of the Long Family would lose his poor life if he dared to come.
....................
After Ling Chen left the small temple, he didn't walk to the Long Family's mansion. Instead, he used multiple instant teleportations and arrived at the Long Family Estate in just a few seconds.
"What a dominating estate." Ling Chen whispered as he was looking at the giant estate in front of him. Before the gates of this towering estate were rows of heroic-looking guards.
The Long Family estate was located at the center of the city and occupied a wide area as well.
At this moment, the streets leading to the Long Family Estate was crowded and boiling with excitement. Luxurious carriages were everywhere with people coming and going.
Aside from the rows of heroic-looking guards at the Gate, there were also a few long family juniors outside that were welcoming guests.
These juniors were very knowledgeable and quickly greeted the guests the moment they approached the gate: " Patriach Mu, Young Master Mu, welcome to our humble abode…"
This similar scene replayed again and again as the Long Family juniors were welcoming the guests.
After a few seconds, a Long family junior noticed that Ling Chen was standing by the gate in a daze and quickly asked: "This is… Who might you be, Sir?"
However, before Ling Chen could even answer, the joyful voice of an old man suddenly rang out from behind him. "Venerable Monk, you finally made it. I've been waiting for you?"
When he turned around, he saw Long Yi, the old man that handed him the invitation yesterday, rushing towards him with an amiable smile on his face.
Upon seeing elder Long Yi came to personally receive the old monk, the Long Family junior had a surprised look on his face. Elder Long Yi was like the right-hand man of the patriarch.
"Amitabha. Don't tell me benefactor has been waiting all night for me outside." Suddenly asked Ling Chen with a confused look on his face.
"Hahaha. The patriarch had ordered me to personally received the Venerable Monk, as such, I didn't dare to slack off." Answered Long Yi with a respectful look on his face.
Ling Chen felt somewhat confused. He didn't know the patriarch of the Long Family, yet the patriarch seemed to place great importance on him and treated him as though he was VIP.
'Don't tell me the Long Family's patriarch know my real identity.' Ling Chen thought inwardly.
"Thank you for coming Venerable Monk. The party is about to start, please follow me inside." Long Yi said as he cupped his fists before he led Ling Chen into the giant estate.
As they moved forward, the scenery continuously changed, and there were pavilions and buildings everywhere. Everything was unspeakably beautiful.
Soon, Ling Chen finally arrived in the giant main hall where the party was taking place which was located in the inner courtyard of the Long Family estate.
It was nicely decorated and huge rows of tables with the finest foods and wines were arranged through the hall.
Everything was prearranged for a banquet at this level. How many invites were sent, how many seats were arranged, including the seating arrangements of the guests because of the clear distinction of power and status between them?
The numerous big shots of the Sun Demi-God Domain sat in a particular order for this feast. The layout resembled something one would find in a heavenly court.
Currently, all the guests were already presented. They were happily chatting and laughing with one another.
However, the moment Ling Chen arrived at the main hall, he felt numerous eyes looking at him. At the same time, he was also a little surprised because he found out that almost every single person in this room had already broken through the Martial Saint realm, except for a few.
One Mid-level Martial Saint was enough to conquer the whole Heaven Desolate Region, yet there were hundreds of them within the main hall at the moment.
The strength of the Heaven Suppression Region was truly staggering when seen; no wonder the Heaven Suppression Region was considered as the Ancestral Ground of the Human race as well as the ruler of the other Human territories.
