Chapter 1026 - Profound Master
The person who came was Li Changfeng. The moment he appeared, the strange energy in Que Xinyan’s body was instantly covered up and disappeared without a trace, as if it had never existed. Please search for the most comprehensive one!However, he couldn’t escape Long Chen’s sharp senses. Although he didn’t know what it was, Long Chen knew that Que Xin Yan was hiding his strength.
In reality, no matter if it was Que Xinyan, Hua Shiyu, or the others, they had all concealed their true strength. The strength they displayed was just the tip of the iceberg.
They were all powerful experts, and unless it was absolutely necessary, no one was willing to reveal their trump cards. This was because once their trump cards were revealed, it would no longer be called a trump card and put them in danger.
Therefore, although the fight had seemed extremely intense, Long Chen believed that they were all wary of each other and held back on their words.
"Elder Li, Long Chen, he …" Que Xinyan said.
“We will see everything. We know who’s in the right and who’s in the wrong. We will return to our own factions and begin the welcoming ceremony. Don’t cause any trouble!” Li Changfeng warned.
Seeing that Li Changfeng didn’t even give him a chance to explain, a hint of anger appeared in Que Xinyan’s eyes, but he did not dare to show it. He retrieved his huge flame beast and returned to his team.
Long Chen also withdrew his Fire Dragon and returned to the Dragon Blood Legion. Just as Guo Ran and the rest were about to speak, Long Chen shook his head. Now was not the time to talk.
“Keep the team in order, don’t make any noise!”
After Li Changfeng finished speaking, the scene in front of him suddenly changed and everyone appeared in front of a tall tower.
The tower was grand and magnificent. It took up several hundred li of land, and the peak of the tower pierced into the clouds. No one knew how tall it actually was.
This was the symbol of the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Sect — the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Tower. It was said that it had existed since the first day the sect was established. It was ancient and sacred, causing people to feel a sense of awe towards it.
But now, the front of the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Tower was packed with people. When Long Chen and the others arrived, they were shocked to discover that there were many disciples wearing the apparel of the Heavenly Mystery Sect.
Looking at the faces of those people, they were all very young and were curiously staring at them. It was obvious that they were also newcomers.
Actually, what Long Chen and the others didn’t know was that these disciples were also disciples that the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Sect had accepted this year.
What was different from them was that there were many disciples here, and they were not battle-type disciples. They had different examinations and tests, and thus, they all had their own different tests.
Other than the millions of disciples, the thousands of elders in front of Mysterious Heavenly Dao Tower all stood there with solemn expressions, not smiling at all.
These several thousand Elders were all king level powerhouses. Moreover, they were all elites of their respective great powers. There were also many other elders who didn’t even have the qualifications to participate.
This was the terrifying foundation of the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Sect. Behind the thousands of elders, there was a tall platform. On top of the platform, there were thirty-six chairs.
On each chair was an old man wearing a golden robe. That was the seat of the Academy Master. Only they had the right to sit.
And behind the thirty-six master level experts, there was an even bigger chair. No one was sitting on it.
Under the gazes of millions of disciples, over a thousand king level entities, and thirty-six Academy Masters, even Long Chen felt a little nervous. As for the others, they found it even harder to breathe.
This lineup was truly too terrifying. Never in their wildest dreams could they have imagined that there would be so many experts gathered together. This lineup was simply too shocking.
"Gulp!"
The sound of gulping could not be stopped. In front of such a large Mysterious Heavenly Dao Tower, even a pin drop could be heard, and some disciples could only hear their own heartbeat.
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, the space trembled as a beam of light descended. A human figure descended from the sky and slowly landed on the chair in the middle of the room.
When he first appeared, that person’s body was translucent like a shadow. When he sat down on the chair, he became solid.
It was a middle-aged man. He wore a purplish golden crown on his head, and he wore an azure long robe with a jade belt hanging from his waist.
What shocked Long Chen the most was that there was a faint light circulating around his body. That was no ordinary light, and within that light, Long Chen could feel immortal spirit energy.
The Eastern Wastelands Bell had mentioned this to Long Chen before. It said that from Spiritual Energy to Spirit Yuan was a cultivation process, and the end of the Spirit Yuan was the Immortal Yuan. If one wanted to cultivate Immortal Yuan, they would first need to condense Spiritual Energy.
Once the immortal spiritual energy flowed through his body, he would become an immortal. In other words, this person in front of him had already touched the barrier of becoming an immortal?
Immortal Ascension was a distant legend. It could even be considered a mythical existence. And this middle-aged man in front of him was actually able to cultivate immortal spirit energy.
When the middle-aged man appeared, it was as if the entire world had changed. It was filled with an immortal aura as a bizarre fluctuation caused one’s pores to slowly open, greedily absorbing that faint aura.
"Greetings, Profound Master."
All the elders bowed respectfully as all the disciples kneeled on the ground. This was not a request made on purpose, but rather, it was the body of that middle-aged man, carrying something that would cause one’s soul to deeply respect him.
He felt that if he didn’t kneel down and pay his respects, it would be a blasphemy to the gods. Even Hua Shiyu, Hu Guishan, and the others couldn’t help but kneel down.
Kneeling in front of that middle-aged man, not only did he not feel any discomfort, he instead felt that it was natural, allowing his mind to feel more at ease.
All of the disciples kneeled on the ground. In the end, one of them was exposed because only Long Chen did not kneel.
Long Chen could feel this middle-aged man’s power and reverence from the bottom of his heart. However, it wasn’t to the point of reverence that he fell to his knees and kowtowed. In the end, he became a crane among a flock of chickens.
“Where did this brat come from? He doesn’t know the rules, yet he dares to not kneel after seeing Profound Master!” An old man with a cold and stern face coldly reprimanded.
That person was none other than the Hall Master of the Enforcement Hall, who was almost like fire and water with the Elder Hall. When he saw that everyone was kneeling down, he stood alone in the crowd and shouted out.
The Hall Master of the Enforcement Hall coldly rebuked. At this moment, everyone’s eyes were focused on Long Chen. Long Chen was too eye-catching at this moment.
When the Profound Master looked at Long Chen, who was in the crowd, Long Chen was shocked. The moment his gaze made contact with the Profound Master’s gaze, Long Chen felt that he had nearly lost his way and all his secrets were about to be revealed.
"No harm?"
The Profound Master smiled slightly, not because Long Chen didn’t pay his respects and show no displeasure.
No one noticed that when the Profound Master’s eyes made contact with Long Chen’s, the hairs on the back of his neck instantly stood up. The expression in his eyes also fluctuated for a moment; however, no one was able to tell.
"How does the Elder’s Hall choose its disciples, to not even teach them basic rules? Shouldn’t someone come out and apologize for the disrespect they have shown to Profound Master? " The head of the Law Enforcement Hall had already pointed towards the Elder Hall.
The elders’ Sect and the Law Enforcement Hall were at odds with each other, and everyone knew that, but during the welcoming ceremony, when the Law Enforcement Hall’s hall master was in front of the Profound Master, and even before all the disciples, he had publicly attacked them.
This was because the Elder Sect and Hall of Enforcement were the departments that had the greatest responsibilities in the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Sect. In particular, the Elder Sect was the place that taught and nurtured people. It was the basis of the rise and fall of the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Sect.
As for the Enforcement Hall, they were also a purifying force of the Dao Sect. The yardstick for the healthy development of the Dao Sect. Their duties were sacred.
Now, the two great departments had started to fight in front of everyone. What were the disciples thinking?
Was this asking the disciples to question their authority? If a disciple did not feel gratitude towards the Elder Hall nor reverence towards the Law Enforcement Hall, then wouldn’t that be a complete mess?
What was strange to everyone was that the highest-ranking leader of the Celestial Sect of Wonders, the Profound Master, actually had a friendly expression on his face as he watched on in silence.
“Apologize, right? Then I’ll apologize!”
Suddenly, a voice broke everyone’s train of thoughts. Long Chen shouted from the crowd:
“My apologies, Profound Master Master. It is not that this disciple is disrespectful to you, but that this disciple’s bones are strange and his knees are inverted so he cannot kneel down …”
"Nonsense, you should be slapped!" The Enforcement Hall Master shouted coldly.
Strangely, the head of the Elder Hall didn’t say a word. A faint smile hung on his face as he watched, as if he had nothing to do with Chu Feng.
"The one who should be slapping is you, esteemed Enforcement Hall Master. You wanted to punish me for my disrespectful crime just now?
Then let me ask you, when the Profound Master appeared, he was here to host the welcoming ceremony.
Since the Profound Master has already said the word “no harm”, this means that this matter will be cleared and the grand ceremony will continue. However, you are challenging him again, the target is the elders in the elders’ Sect, are you showing respect to the Profound Master?
To deliberately provoke trouble in front of the Profound Master and all of the disciples, deliberately humiliating the elders’ Sect, and ruining the elders’ Sect’s image; was this their respect to the Profound Master?
Do you know that your way of doing things has severely reduced the reputation of the Law Enforcement Hall and the Elder’s Hall in the hearts of the disciples?
However, you, as the supreme head of the Law Enforcement Hall, decided to shake the foundations of the Dao Sect for the sake of your own selfish desire in order to strike at your comrades. Is this considered your respect for the Grand Master? "
Long Chen continued to interrogate him. His words were extremely sharp and the Enforcement Hall Master was unexpectedly unable to refute them. His expression instantly became extremely unsightly.
Only the head of the elders’ Sect had an indifferent expression. There was neither complacency nor ridicule on his face.
"Pa Pa Pa!"
Applause rang out from the applause. The Academy Master actually clapped his hands and laughed, “Very good, very sharp words, very vivid speech. It’s been a long time since I’ve heard such an interesting argument.”
“Profound Master …” Law Enforcement Hall Master’s face changed as he hurriedly bowed and said.
“After you go back, go into closed door cultivation for three days. You can’t even identify a child. You need to put in some effort in this area.” The lord of the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Tower said indifferently.
Everyone was shocked. The Lord of Mysterious Heavenly Dao Tower wanted to imprison the Enforcement Hall Master for three days and it was a public announcement, so he did not give the Enforcement Hall Master any face at all.
“Yes. I know I was wrong. I’ll think about it after I go back.” The Hall Master’s expression changed as he lowered his head to reply. However, a trace of anger surfaced in his eyes.
The Profound Master did not look at the Hall Master. Instead, he smiled at Long Chen and said, "Little rascal, is there anything else you need?"
Long Chen hesitated for a moment, but ultimately, he shook his head and returned to his seat. He didn’t understand the thoughts of this terrifying expert, so he decided to take a look at the situation first.
"Next, let the welcoming ceremony begin." Only now did the Profound Master sit down on his chair. His gaze swept across the crowd as he spoke.
Chapter 1027 - Hands Should Be Hands
When the voice of the Profound Master fell, everyone had solemn expressions. The Academy Master stood up and walked to the front of the stage.
"First of all, congratulations on passing the inner disciple exam. You will be treated as the elites of the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Sect to be groomed. You will be the future pillars of the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Sect."
Unfortunately, there were many disciples who were eliminated in the exam and left this world.
However, all of you should know that the Dao Sect was not so heartless. Rather, this world was just that cruel.
Today, I have been merciful to you. Tomorrow, when the cruel reality arrives, I will still ruthlessly reap your lives.
You live in peace and prosperity, and grow up under the wing of your families. You have no idea how cruel this world is.
"In this world, countless people die every day because of the peace and prosperity that you all have witnessed. It is they who have given their lives in exchange for your current living space," the dean said.
The Academy Master’s voice was deep and rich in magnetism, making people feel comfortable listening to it. Most importantly, his voice was full of sincerity, going straight to the heart of the people, making them believe him.
Although they were shocked by his words, no one doubted them. They all listened attentively.
Long Chen’s heart trembled. Sure enough, only by stepping on a different height could he see what was at that height.
Long Chen had always felt that there was a problem with this world and that it was not the peaceful and prosperous world that he had imagined. Now that he heard the words of the academy master, it proved his judgment.
The disciples of the Central Region were slightly better, but those from the fourth region were clearly frightened by the words of the Sect master.
The Academy Master continued, "The monsters you have encountered in the exam are monsters from the demon realm. They do not belong to this world.
The weak parts of the World Barrier are connected to the Demon World. Our Mysterious Heavenly Dao Sect is guarding a passage to the Demon World.
Every year, a large amount of manpower and resources were invested into the battle. Of course, there would always be strong people dying on the battlefield of the Demon World.
And your trial grounds are just the most common, and the lowest, demon creatures in the Devil Realm’s passageway. "
The words of the academy master caused a commotion. They could not believe their ears. Such a terrifying monster was actually the lowest level of demons. How terrifying would a high level monster be?
"So, you must be filled with reverence and gratitude towards this world. What you have right now is not necessarily something you fight for, but something countless experts silently exchanged their lives for.
All of you have reached the Sea Opening Realm and are qualified to come into contact with the secrets of this world.
It’s like when a child grows up and needs to know what his or her responsibilities and responsibilities are.
As inner court disciples, you will receive the sect’s full training, but there is no such thing as a free lunch.
The resources that you are currently enjoying are all exchanged with the lives of countless heroic ancestors of the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Sect.
Therefore, while you enjoy the authority of resources, it is your duty to stand out and face the savage enemy when the Dao Sect needs you. "
So that was the case. Long Chen finally understood why the Eastern Wasteland sub-school didn’t do anything. It was all because of the Central State Main Sect.
Long Chen couldn’t understand it at first. This was a loss-making deal. They had to provide so many resources for their disciples at no cost, even if there were mountains of gold and silver, they would have to lose everything.
Now that the Academy Master had spoken, Long Chen understood that the initial investments were all for now.
"If anyone feels that the pressure is too great or is too dangerous, they can give up their status as inner sect disciples and change them to outer sect disciples. The sect will not interfere with this at all, and the benefits will still be distributed to those outer sect disciples.
“But you have chosen the treatment of an inner disciple, so you must understand your duty. You have already grown up, and need to have your own responsibilities, so before the grand ceremony begins, all of you make your decisions. If anyone has any objections, you can bring them up now, or else after the ceremony, you will be severely punished by the academy’s rules.” The academy head said.
All of the disciples present whispered amongst themselves. The dean’s intentions were very clear. Inner disciples had their own requirements. Once they entered, it would be as if they had signed a contract to sell themselves off.
They could not leave the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Sect without permission. Otherwise, they would be deemed as betraying the sect. That would be the ultimate punishment.
But right now, everyone had passed the inner court disciple exam that had a slim chance of survival, so no one was willing to give up.
Long Chen, on the other hand, didn’t care. He ate and drank others’ food, and after he had eaten his fill, he refused to work. You want to leave? How could there be such a logic in the world?
The rules of the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Sect were fair. High treatment meant high risk, and high risk meant high reward. Furthermore, the other party had made it clear in advance that his words were fair and fair.
"Hmm?"
Long Chen stood with his hands behind his back, looking forward. Suddenly, Long Chen was stunned because he had caught sight of a strange phenomenon. He saw the Hall Master slightly blink his eyes towards a certain direction in the crowd.
Just then, Que Xinyan took a step forward and said, "Hall Master, there is something that I do not understand. The purpose of the inner sect disciple test is to ensure the survival of the fittest and to select outstanding talents for the Dao Sect.
“However, there are people who don’t understand the rules. They break them and let a bunch of trash join in as well. Letting us elites join them is a humiliation to us, and it is a blasphemy to the rules of the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Sect!”
Qu Xin Yan’s words caused the disciples standing behind the Dragon Blood Legion to change expressions. Their eyes were full of rage. Qu Xin Yan calling them trash was the greatest humiliation they could receive.
“That’s right, he is indeed going too far. He has affected the fairness of the situation. Some people are just trying to be a hero, yet he disobeys the rules of the Dao Sect and deserves to be severely punished.”
What was unexpected was that Hu Kaishan had also stood up and pointed at Long Chen in contradiction.
“We should strip them of their inner sect disciples’ qualifications, or else it would be an insult to the other inner sect disciples.” Even Fan Song stood forward.
Of the five great heaven’s pride level experts, other than Hua Shiyu and Wang Zhen, three of them had actually stood up and pointed straight at Long Chen.
“That’s right, Long Chen is deliberately disturbing the rules, affecting the fairness of the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Sect assessment. We should heavily punish him. Such a person does not even have the qualifications to become an inner disciple, he should be expelled from Dao Sect!” Han Yunshan, Wei Changhai, Yan Mo Chen and the rest shouted.
Following their shouts, the experts from the three major powers all began to shout that they wanted to punish Long Chen.
The millions of disciples looked at the disciples who were ‘stirred up by the crowd’ and looked at each other in dismay. They did not know what had happened.
A faint smile appeared on the Law Enforcement Hall Master’s mouth as he looked at the Academy Master. However, what made him disappointed was that the Academy Master actually had an indifferent expression, as if the matter before him had nothing to do with him.
Yet, the supreme leader of the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Sect, Profound Master, did not say a word. He only watched with interest as a faint smile appeared on his face. He did not seem like a ruler at all, but more like a spectator.
"Sect Master, we are willing to give up the position of inner disciple. However, we request that you do not make things difficult for Senior Brother Long Chen!" The disciples behind the Dragon Blood Legion cried out.
“That’s right. We’re not going to be core disciples. We just hope that the sect doesn’t punish senior brother Long Chen.”
Following one person’s loud shout, the other disciples all loudly shouted, and the thirteen thousand plus people all chose to withdraw.
This action caused all of the elders present to be moved. These people actually took the initiative to leave in order to not implicate Long Chen.
"Nonsense!"
Long Chen let out a cold shout and said angrily, "Your actions are tantamount to betraying the enemy. Do you know?"
"Senior brother Long Chen …" Everyone was stunned.
"If you quit, would you be able to face your own efforts? Are you worthy of those brothers who died fighting to protect you?
Right now, your lives are no longer yours. If you want to fulfill their unfulfilled wish, then you will be the continuation of their life and will.
If you were to give up after suffering a small setback, what would you think of your efforts? What did he take his brother’s life for? Who do you think is right to do this? " Long Chen shouted in anger.
"But …"
"There’s no ‘but’. It’s just a bunch of clowns, what’s so good about something that can’t even be considered a part of the show.
You guys aren’t even afraid of death, how can you be afraid of a few idiots? “Don’t make me look down on you!” Long Chen said.
"Very well. Senior brother Long Chen, whatever you say, we will do. Even if you want us to fight against them, we will not hesitate in the slightest." Everyone shouted out in unison, and some of them even tightened their grip on their weapons.
"How dare you! Do you want to rebel?" The Enforcement Hall Master shouted coldly.
Long Chen waved his hand and the crowd fell silent. The cold shout of the Enforcement Hall Master was like fart and didn’t have the slightest effect.
Long Chen looked at the cold and dignified Enforcement Hall Master and then at the Profound Master, who was looking at everyone with great interest. He really couldn’t understand. Was this middle-aged man really the head of a sect? How could he be so arrogant? He didn’t even have the slightest bit of dignity. The Enforcement Hall Master had actually called him so loudly, but he didn’t seem to care at all.
Long Chen didn’t understand the Profound Master’s thoughts, but he had no choice but to step forward. However, the only thing that made him gratified was that the Academy Master faintly nodded his head.
Who was Long Chen? If he didn’t understand what was going on, then he wouldn’t be Long Chen.
Obviously, the Academy Master meant to be bold and work for him. The Elder Sect was your solid backing.
"You are truly worthy of being a great figure of the Enforcement Hall. To be able to put on a big hat so easily, is this the style of conduct of your Hall of Enforcement?" To whom should I speak as to a criminal? " Long Chen said coldly.
As Long Chen spoke, the Elders present had a strange expression on their faces. This was because Long Chen was absolutely correct. The Law Enforcement Hall’s elders were basically like interrogators, causing one to feel uncomfortable. Thus, the elders of the Law Enforcement Hall were basically unpopular.
“Long Chen, you’re too impudent. You actually dare to contradict the Lord Law Enforcement Hall Master. You should slap yourself for offending your superiors!” Qu Xin Yan shouted.
"Pa!"
Just as Que Xinyan finished speaking, a pair of large hands immediately reached for him and viciously slapped his face.
Chapter 1028
With a crisp sound, the entire audience fell into a deathly silence. The disciples were all dumbfounded by it, and even the elders had their mouths wide open, not daring to believe their own eyes.
No one would have thought that Long Chen would make a move in this kind of situation. The two of them weren’t far from each other, but Que Xinyan was able to hit him directly.
Never in his wildest dreams had Que Xinyan imagined that Long Chen would be so audacious as to make a move in front of the Profound Master. He couldn’t help but be stunned by the slap.
"This move is not bad!"
The Profound Master had been watching indifferently the entire time. However, the moment Long Chen’s palm was about to land, his eyes lit up and a hint of praise appeared at the corner of his mouth. He had clearly been stunned by Long Chen’s beautiful palm.
"Long Chen, you dare to hit people?"
After a full two breaths of time, Que Xinyan finally reacted and shouted angrily.
"No, no, no. You are wrong. I am not hitting someone, I am slapping them according to your words."
When you say “if you don’t do what you want, you should slap your lips.” According to the positions you’re in, if I stand in front of you, it means that the wind is blowing, and if you interrupt me, it means that you’re attacking the “if you don’t want to do it,” then the “will be” against the “if you don’t want to do it.”
Since you asked for it, I will naturally help you. "Do you have any objections?" Long Chen shook his head.
“You …” Qu Xin Yan clenched his teeth so hard that there was a cracking sound coming from it. His entire body began to tremble from being tangled by Long Chen, and he actually didn’t know how to refute.
"Long Chen, how dare you stir up the welcoming ceremony, you should be punished by a thorny whip according to the rules …" The Enforcement Hall Master shouted coldly.
“Come on, this is not the Enforcement Hall. You can’t cover the sky with one hand, you can’t convict me.”
Some people just said that my brothers were trash. Now that I stood up for them and spoke up for them, I was stopped by a bunch of people. Can’t I just give them a slap?
Do I have to listen to everything you say? If you say we are guilty, then we are guilty? Do you think we deserve to die just because we deserve to die?
Are you a god? “If you are, please prove to us. If you aren’t, what qualifications do you have to obliterate our opportunity to defend ourself?” Long Chen impolitely said.
He could tell that this Hall Master was a paranoid egomaniac. He was extremely headstrong and overbearing.
Today, he had deliberately relied on Profound Master introduction to make trouble for the elders’ Sect in front of the Profound Master. It was very likely that he wanted to restore the face he had lost on Lu Minghan last time.
Long Chen had always thought that strong people should have the bearing of strong people and the restraint of strong people. Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to step onto such a high ground.
However, he discovered that he was wrong, very wrong. After coming to Central State, he finally understood: an idiot did not ask where he came from, an idiot did not care about age.
The headmaster of the Enforcement Hall was clearly an existence above the king level expert. Yet, he was actually so lacking in self-restraint, using such a despicable method.
Although his eyes were very obscure, what tricks hadn’t Long Chen seen before? Look at him pouting. I know what kind of sh * t he can pull out.
It was clear that Que Xinyan, Fan Song, and Hu Guishan had connections with the Enforcement Hall. Otherwise, they would not dare to go against Long Chen in front of the Profound Master.
This would leave a bad impression on the Profound Master, but now that they had done it, everything was too obvious.
Long Chen wasn’t the only one who could see that. The other elders were all intelligent people. When they saw the three of them come out at the same time, their hearts were already clear as day.
However, they couldn’t understand why the Law Enforcement Hall was so powerful. They actually extended their hands to new disciples.
At the same time, many people felt a chill in their hearts. The Law Enforcement Hall was most likely going to completely humiliate the Elder Hall this time.
Earlier, because of Long Chen’s matter, Li Changfeng had suppressed Lu Minghan, causing a huge ruckus. The Elder Hall and the Hall of Enforcement had opposed each other, and in the end, it was the higher-ups who had spoken out.
However, the Enforcement Hall was holding back his breath. Everything that had happened today showed that the Enforcement Hall had started to make their move. Moreover, the moment they made their move, they launched a peerless and fierce attack.
Originally, all disciples were under the jurisdiction of the Hall of Elders. However, the Law Enforcement Hall also had the authority to recruit disciples to serve in the Law Enforcement Hall.
If they were ordinary inner court disciples, then that would be fine. However, Qu Xin Yan, Fan Song, and Hu Guishan were all core disciples and had formed their own forces. If they were to join the Enforcement Hall, then that would be too loud of a slap to the Elder Hall.
To put it bluntly, it was to enjoy the resources of the Elder Hall and to serve the Law Enforcement Hall.
And this Lord Profound Master in front of him was indifferent to everything. As long as he did not violate the rules of the Sect, he was too lazy to care. The most severe punishment was merely three days of closed door cultivation of the Hall Master.
Facing the cultivation of the Profound Lord, everyone felt reverence from the bottom of their hearts. However, the laziness and cancer that seeped into his bones gave people a headache. However, they did not dare to say anything.
This was a good example. Not to mention the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Sect, even the most famous sects in Central State, no one would dare to brazenly fight with their leaders like this.
But this Profound Master just watched indifferently, as if he was appreciating something interesting.
"Alright, then let us hear how you argue!" The head of the Law Enforcement Hall said coldly.
Long Chen looked at Que Xinyan, Fan Song, and Hu Guishan and said, "You guys said before that the purpose of the inner sect disciple test was to ensure the survival of the fittest. What’s bad? "
"Hmph, you don’t even know the difference between good and bad, are you an idiot? “Of course it refers to one’s talent, comprehension, and aptitude. What do you, a country bumpkin, know?” Que Xinyan laughed coldly.
Long Chen did not get angry. Instead, he smiled slightly and said, "If what you said is true, then why did you want to take the examination? Wouldn’t it be fine if we just directly use the data to evaluate the disciple’s rank? "
“The data is just a reference. Without real combat, who can see a person’s true potential?” Que Xinyan replied.
"Are you slapping yourself in the face? Just a moment ago, you even said that ‘advantage and disadvantage’ referred to one’s talent, comprehension, and aptitude. But now, you said that it wasn’t possible to see through it through actual combat.
They had been protected by the Dragonblood Legion, but the Dragonblood Warriors had merely given them a small chance to adjust themselves.
In the end, they still had to rely on themselves to survive. Their talent was not good, and their strength was not strong, but they were firm and unwavering. They wanted to become strong.
This belief supported them and allowed them to survive from the cruel battlefield. Do you know how much they paid?
Their talent is not high, their cultivation is weak, and they are not as strong as you. They have to put in ten times more effort than you, in order to obtain the current glory.
“Compared to you, they’re the real warriors. You keep saying that they’re trash, but you’re the one who’s the biggest trash!” Long Chen sneered.
Long Chen’s words were like a sledgehammer that smashed into the hearts of everyone present. Countless disciples looked towards the disciples behind the Dragon Blood Legion.
The ones with the best talent were only at the third grade, and there was even a small number at the second grade. For them to be able to survive such a brutal test was truly worthy of respect.
When they thought about Que Xinyan’s domineering attitude and how he called them trash, many people looked at him with disdain.
Even the group of elders nodded their heads in agreement. Talent was only a starting point for cultivation, but hard work in the future was the most important.
Que Xinyan was left speechless by Long Chen’s words. Moreover, he also saw the disciples in the distance pointing at him and whispering to each other. He didn’t know what to say in order to refute him.
"But no matter what, bringing a group of low-quality disciples into the inner court has affected the fairness of the exam." The head of the Enforcement Hall spoke.
When the Enforcement Hall Master spoke, many of the Elders couldn’t help but shake their heads. This Hall Master’s brain had been completely squeezed by the door, and he actually said such unskilled words.
Sure enough, Long Chen sneered: "Fair? Are you telling me a joke? Was there any fairness in the world?
Besides, what do you mean by low quality? Is it because their talents are lower than others that they become of low quality in your mouth?
If talent really could represent everything, then what was the point of cultivation? Why did we still need to comprehend it? If you had good talent, could you just sleep every day and become a Deity?
Every disciple is a seed. When the seeds take root and sprout, you don’t know what they are.
When you see some disciples blossoming, and the result is that you think their talents are good and their achievements are high.
Those disciples that hadn’t bloomed yet and had no results were of low quality? What a stupid theory.
If you don’t blossom and you don’t bear fruit, you can’t be a sapling? Can’t you grow into a towering tree?
“Do your job well. In the field of teaching and training, the Elder Academy is the true expert. Don’t come here to embarrass yourself.”
"Bullshit! Do you think I’m blind? How could they grow into such towering trees? It was just a mere third grade Sea Cleaving Stage, and the Casting Stage was their limit. Even if there were ten thousand people, not even one of them could reach that level. Such a person still wanted to grow up to be a towering tree.
Being questioned by Long Chen in succession, the Enforcement Hall Master couldn’t help but be enraged. He actually burst out with vulgarities in front of everyone.
The Xuan Core he spoke of was the specific realm of a king level expert. In the Eastern Wastelands, the Xuan Core was known as the king. That was because in the borderlands, the Xuan Core was already the ruler of the world.
However, in the Central Region, they were only at the Xuan Core realm. Normally, only Tier 4 Skywalker would have the chance to obtain the Xuan Core, and the chances of that weren’t more than one in a thousand.
Law Enforcement Hall’s Hall Master said that even among ten thousand people, not one of them would be able to break through to the Core Formation Stage. This was an indisputable fact.
“You’re the one farting. Not only are your eyes blind, even your brain is flooded. Otherwise, how would you fart randomly in front of the Profound Master?”
The world is big, there are many strange things about it, how many have you seen? How can you be so sure that they won’t be able to do anything in the future?
You are a god? Your will can cover the entire universe? You can say whatever you want? " Long Chen sneered.
“Then how can you prove that they’re capable, and that they’re not wasting the sect’s resources?” The Enforcement Hall Master asked in a cold voice.
"Because I am the best proof!" Long Chen said.
"You? What can you prove? " The Enforcement Hall Master sneered.
"Because before I turned fifteen, I was still a rookie that was only at the 3rd level of Qi Condensation. Is that proof enough?"
When Long Chen’s words came out, everyone present had a look of shock on their faces.
Chapter 1029 - Mysterious Heavenly Dao Blessing
As Long Chen spoke, disbelief appeared on everyone’s faces. This made Long Chen understand one thing.
The Elder Hall hid everything from him. Long Chen originally thought that there would be a portion of people who would know about it, but now it seemed that the Academy Master was also a scheming person.
He purposely kept the news to himself so that Long Chen would have more opportunities to slap himself. Long Chen looked towards the Academy Master, who was also looking at him with a meaningful smile on his face.
The heck, as expected of an old fox. It is likely that his reaction is within the expectations of the academy head.
Compared to the Sect head’s craftiness, logically speaking, the Hall Master should have already been toyed to death with his intelligence. Why would the Hall Master still be so overbearing?
Long Chen was secretly shocked. He felt that he was still too inexperienced and had been inexplicably used as a spear by the Elder’s Hall.
Although Long Chen knew that ever since he killed Lu Minghan, he was destined to become enemies with the Law Enforcement Hall. Long Chen had never regretted it, because Lu Minghan had gone too far.
It was just that Long Chen didn’t like this kind of covert use. Long Chen didn’t mind being used as a spear in the Elder’s Hall, but he hoped that the Elder’s Hall would be a bit tougher and not be so secretive.
“Long Chen is right. Our Elder’s Hall has specially investigated Long Chen’s background and we have a record of it. What Long Chen said is the truth …” The Academy Master seemed to have seen through Long Chen’s thoughts.
Long Chen was slightly surprised, but he immediately understood. The Academy Master had made his position clear, which completely reassured Long Chen.
Originally, Long Chen had been most afraid of being thrown away after being used like a gun by someone. That Long Chen was going to die from anger.
From the Phoenix Cry Empire, to one hundred and eight Sects, to thirty-six branch academies, and then to the Eastern Wasteland branch sects, Long Chen had already thoroughly understood these unspoken rules. He deeply knew that before he could establish his footing, it was best to find a reliable platform to rely on.
He needed the Elder Hall, and the Elder Hall also needed Long Chen. The two of them mutually benefited each other.
The moment the dean had spoken, the Hall Master’s expression turned ugly. He knew that he had been tricked and had been disgraced.
Before, he had said that these disciples were only third-grade Skywalker and wouldn’t be able to step into the King’s Realm for the rest of their lives. In the end, he had said too much.
Long Chen was still gathering qi before he was fifteen, and it was even at the 3rd level of the Qi Gathering realm. According to his theory, this kind of person didn’t need to cultivate anymore. He was just a piece of trash.
But now, Long Chen had already gone to the Central Region and was fighting against the heaven’s pride experts. Slapping his own face was a bit too loud.
"In this world, there will always be some people who get lucky. But can you say that everyone has the same luck as you?" The Enforcement Hall Master argued.
“When we followed boss back then, we weren’t even those who developed the Dao!” Guo Ran stood up and said.
“He’s right. The three hundred members of the Dragon Blood Legion are all from later days. We’ve investigated and can bear witness to this,” the dean said.
Their entire path had been created by Long Chen. Long Chen had used his own experience to tell everyone that sometimes hard work was more important than talent, and that there was no such thing as an absolute advantage in life. He shouldn’t look down on others because of their inferior talents.
"Luo Fan, do you have anything else to add?" At this time, the Profound Master finally spoke.
“Reporting to Profound Master, this disciple only thinks that …” Law Enforcement Hall’s leader respectfully said.
The Grand Master waved his hand and said: “Don’t answer irrelevant questions. If there’s nothing else you want to add, start the ceremony.”
"Yes!"
The Enforcement Hall Master could only helplessly withdraw. The meaning behind Profound Master’s words was very clear. Without a valid reason, there was no need to say anything else.
In other words, although Law Enforcement Hall’s hall master was unwilling to admit the identity of those disciples, he really couldn’t find any reason to do so.
"Disciples, who have passed the inner sect examination, come forward and take your inner sect disciple apparel and nameplate. From today onwards, you will be glorious inner sect disciples!" Li Changfeng stood up and shouted.
When Li Changfeng spoke, the crowd burst into cheers, especially the disciples who followed Long Chen’s group. They were still so happy that they were crying tears of joy. They had succeeded.
The Elders of the Elder Sect gave out their disciple attire, as well as an identity token that recorded their personal information. Relying on this token, they could receive benefits every month, and enter and leave the major training grounds.
After the inner disciples were distributed, Elder Li Changfeng said, "Next up is the core disciples nameplate …"
Hearing this, a taunting smile appeared on Que Xinyan’s face as she coldly looked at Long Chen.
Only Hua Shiyu looked at Long Chen with some sympathy, feeling a little pity for him. Long Chen was qualified to be a core disciple.
The disciples behind Long Chen all looked a bit sad. It was them who had implicated Long Chen.
"Hua Shi Yu, Hu Gui Shan, Fan Song, Wang Zhen, Qu Xin Yan … “Long Chen, come up and receive your identity plate!” Li Changfeng purposely paused for a moment before he called out Long Chen’s name. Long Chen couldn’t believe his ears.
“What?” Didn’t he get eliminated? " Everyone was shocked, Han Yunshan was the first one to shout.
"What’s going on? He was obviously eliminated, so how could he obtain a spot in the Core Disciple rankings? Liu Cang, what are you trying to do? " The Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall roared. The Liu Cang he spoke of was the Chief of the Elder Academy.
"Nothing. Long Chen meets the criteria of a core disciple." Liu Cang indifferently said.
Law Enforcement Hall’s Hall Master Luo Fan was immediately furious. He saluted to the Profound Master and said: “Profound Master, what Liu Cang did is simply shaming public interests and doing private matters. He is being unfair.”
"Liu Cang, your reason …" The Profound Master said.
Liu Cang bowed, and then said: "Reporting to Profound Master, the examination is only a form, you cannot keep the rules, and you must lose a genius.
The main purpose of this exam was not to test the combat strength of the core disciples, nor was it for their talent and potential. It was for their leadership abilities.
The reason why the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Sect trained core disciples with all their might was because they wanted to nurture a commander level talent to become the leader of the younger generation.
Long Chen’s performance was very clear to all. He was the one with the lowest talent and the weakest strength, leading the group all the way to the end. His casualty rate was the lowest among all the teams.
From the performance from the road, fully reflected his outstanding wisdom, sharp insight, and strong personal charm.
And when he is about to pass the disciple exam and the team was threatened, he didn’t hesitate to give up the temptation of having a core disciple and went to support his own team. That is the quality a commander should have. "
“Nonsense, the Commander should aim for the completion of the mission. Due to his soft-heartedness, he failed the mission. As a commander, he is considered a useless trash,” the Law Enforcement Hall’s Hall Master Luo Fan said with a sneer.
Liu Cang looked at Luo Fan and shook his head: "No matter what methods you use, even if you complete the mission, it wouldn’t count as a victory.
“Because of love, the commander who failed the mission is trash, and in order to complete the mission, the commander who disregarded his comrades’ lives, is worse than trash.”
Liu Cang’s words were extremely rude. In particular, the last sentence he said was sonorous and forceful. It spread far and wide and shook people to their hearts.
Long Chen hadn’t thought that the gentle, refined, and scheming Sect Master would be able to say such bold words. He couldn’t help but admire him.
This was what it meant to have feelings, otherwise it would be absolutely impossible to understand a person’s mind. It would be impossible to deceive a person’s true feelings.
"You … “This is forcing logic!” Law Enforcement Hall’s Hall Master Luo Fan said angrily.
“Reasonable, eternal, unchangeable. The strong words cannot be taken away, and justice is in the hearts of the people. The spots given to Long Chen’s core disciples are within the authority of our Elder Hall. If the Law Enforcement Hall is dissatisfied, they can appeal, but they have no right to interfere. Lord Hallmaster, you have exceeded your authority!”
There was no anger in his voice, but each word was convincing and convincing.
One was graceful and the other was flustered and exasperated. The academy master and the Law Enforcement Hall Master’s cultivation formed a strong contrast.
Long Chen couldn’t help but secretly shake his head. This Enforcement Hall Master was just an idiot. Just how did he cultivate to such a high level? Was the heavens blind?
If Long Chen was the Profound Master, he would have slapped this idiot to death a long time ago. He didn’t understand what this mysterious Profound Master was thinking.
“Long Chen meets the requirements of the core disciples, there’s no need to fight!” The Grand Master finally spoke and his voice was firm.
The Enforcement Hall Master’s face immediately became extremely ugly, but he didn’t dare say anything else. He knew that this Profound Master normally didn’t mind his own business, but once he made a decision, no one could change his mind. If he dared to oppose it, he would definitely be struck by lightning and would not dare to make a sound.
Hua Shiyu, Hu Guishan, Fan Song, Wang Zhen, Qu Xin Yan, and Long Chen arrived before the stage in order. They took an exquisite long box containing the apparel and nameplates of the core disciples.
“Long Chen, just you wait. I won’t let you go!” Qu Xin Yan said in a low voice as he leaned against Long Chen. The corners of his mouth slightly moved.
Long Chen looked at Que Xinyan and coldly said, "Idiot, do you think I will let you go?"
However, the two of them only had enough time to exchange a single sentence before they brought their clothing tokens back to their respective teams.
"The welcoming ceremony is about to begin, open Mysterious Heavenly Dao Blessing!"
"Boom!"
Suddenly, countless runes lit up on top of the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Tower. Endless amounts of immortal spirit energy surged towards all the disciples.
Everyone immediately felt their bodies lighten. The 108,000 pores on their bodies opened up as they greedily absorbed the divine aura.
"My spirit root is improving, and my spirit blood is purifying. Heavens, what kind of power is this?!"
Everyone could not help but be ecstatic. After being baptized by that aura, their bodies instantly became lighter, and they even had a faint aura of immortal beauty. The men were more handsome, and the women were more beautiful, everyone was ecstatic, as if their bodies were undergoing some kind of transformation.
“This is the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Tower’s blessing. It will be of great help to your cultivation. You will understand in the future. Alright, the welcoming ceremony ends here.” Li Changfeng announced.
"Chi!"
Suddenly, a blood-red blade appeared and sliced across his palm. Blood dripped onto the nameplate. Everyone’s expression changed when they saw Long Chen’s actions.
Chapter 1030 - Blood Tolling Bell
As the other disciples were about to disperse, they suddenly saw Long Chen offering them a blood drink. He cutting open a wound on his palm and letting the blood drip onto his nameplate, they didn’t understand what he meant.However, the expressions of all the elders changed. They immediately knew that Long Chen wanted to do something extremely crazy.
Dong!
A bell sound resounded through the air, and all the elders and academy master who were about to disperse stopped in their tracks. Only the figure of the Profound Master had unknowingly disappeared.
"Que Xinyan, I, Long Chen, challenge you to a life and death battle as a core disciple. With the Blood Toll Bell, I ask that all of you bear witness!"
Before the exam even began, all of the disciples had already memorized the various rules of the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Sect.
Amongst the numerous rules, if there were any irreconcilable conflicts between disciples, they could issue a challenge. However, in order to avoid using force to suppress the weak, it was stipulated that the challenge had to be of the same rank.
That was to say, inner disciples could only challenge inner disciples and inner disciples were not allowed to issue challenges to outer disciples. This was not allowed by the rules.
Now that Long Chen had obtained the nameplate of a core disciple, he immediately issued a challenge. Moreover, it wasn’t an ordinary challenge, but a battle of life and death with the Blood Toll Bell.
That was a challenge that only core disciples had the qualifications to start. It meant that between core disciples, there was an irreconcilable hatred, to the point of not giving up until one side died.
Core level disciples were the pillars of the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Sect. They were heaven’s pride level disciples that needed to be nurtured with all their might. They had no choice but to ring the bell and attract the attention of the entire Dao Sect.
“Long Chen, don’t be confused ….” Li Changfeng’s expression changed as he hastily shouted.
"Hahahaha! Good! Long Chen, you have guts. I agree!" Before Li Changfeng could finish speaking, Que Xinyan had already bit his finger, and fresh blood dripped onto the nameplate.
Dong!
Abruptly, the sound of a bell rang out. Two pillars of light descended from the skies, enveloping the two of them.
In that instant, the two figures seemed to become illusory. They were actually separated by the pillar of light. In reality, this was triggering the rules of the challenge. As long as they confirmed it, they would be sent to the Life and Death Arena.
All of the disciples present were shocked. This matter had happened too suddenly; they didn’t even understand what had just happened. The two of them had already been wrapped in a halo of light.
Only the Dragon Blood Warriors understood Long Chen the best. They knew that Long Chen couldn’t take this lying down. He had to avenge his dead disciples.
"Senior brother Long Chen …"
Seeing this, how could those disciples not understand what was going on? They never would have thought that Long Chen would be this loyal. The matter had clearly passed, and Long Chen had already done his best. Even if the matter came to an end, they would still be eternally grateful to Long Chen.
It was already the past and he was already dead. However, Long Chen couldn’t let go of the killing intent in his heart. He had to avenge those people, or else he wouldn’t be at ease.
Even Hua Shishi and Wang Zhen were shocked. This Long Chen was simply a madman. He was too terrifying. He would not waste even a single second to seek revenge.
In their eyes, Long Chen was simply courting death, because Long Chen didn’t know that there was an insurmountable gulf between them.
Han Yunshan, Wei Changhai, and Yan Mo Chen all wore expressions of schadenfreude. The three of them had more or less had a grudge with Long Chen, and Han Yunshan had been tormented by Long Chen.
“Academy Master Liu Cang, the two core disciples took the initiative to launch a life and death battle, what are you hesitating for?” The Law Enforcement Hall’s Hall Master asked darkly.
He hadn’t thought that things would turn around like this. Happiness came too suddenly, and Long Chen actually took the initiative to send himself to his death. This was something he hadn’t expected.
Currently, the two had already completed their challenges and battles. As long as Liu Cang agreed to open up the Life and Death Arena, the two of them would be able to fight to the death.
Seeing Liu Cang standing there without saying anything, the Enforcement Hall Master couldn’t help but urge him. He really wanted to see the scene of Long Chen’s death.
Liu Cang suddenly laughed. At the beginning, he was also stunned by Long Chen’s actions. He couldn’t understand what Long Chen was thinking and didn’t know if he should allow the two to challenge him.
Suddenly, a voice rang out in his mind. His state of mind relaxed a lot as he extended his hand and took out a one-foot square chessboard.
There were thousands of runes flowing back and forth on the chess board, making one feel dazzled. This was an extraordinary thing, one that controlled the entire Myriad Dao of Heaven’s Path Sect’s training grounds.
As he looked at the chess board, the Hall of Enforcement master’s eyes flashed with a trace of jealousy. The Elders Institution held a high position because the resources they controlled were too numerous. The Hall of Enforcement only had the authority to supervise the enforcement of laws.
"Since you’ve just entered the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Sect, you are not allowed to start a life and death battle within three months. However, since you guys are so angry, you are allowed to challenge them. However, you are not allowed to kill each other.
“If you agree, the challenge will be carried out, if you don’t agree, the challenge will be cancelled, and if you were to engage in a private fight, you will be severely punished!” Liu Cang said.
In reality, this was not what Liu Cang meant, but rather what "going up" meant. He was just following his orders.
"This disciple agrees!" Que Xinyan cried out.
"Disciple agrees as well." Long Chen also agreed.
"The two of you, be careful not to speak falsely. If you harbor evil thoughts and kill the other party, you will be expelled from the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Sect!" Liu Cang warned.
“Don’t worry. I won’t kill him because killing him would be too easy for him.” A malevolent expression appeared on Qu Xin Yan’s face.
Long Chen didn’t say anything. It was just an expulsion. Since that was the case, he might as well do whatever he wanted.
Seeing that there were no objections from the two of them, the runes on Liu Cang’s chessboard lit up. Everyone felt the scene in front of them change as a hundred mile square arena appeared before them. Long Chen and Que Xin Yan were already standing in the middle of the stage.
… ….
In the headquarters of the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Sect, in an underground hall, the Profound Master sat on a praying mat, in front of him was an ancient chessboard, the chessboard was crisscrossed, and it was filled with chess pieces. The two sides were deadlocked, entering a deadlock.
"Pa!"
In the end, the Profound Master’s chess piece was placed in an inconspicuous corner and an aged voice sounded:
"Inhumane actions!"
The voice came from in front of the Grand Master, as if someone was sitting on the other side of the chessboard. In reality, the voice was extremely strange and indiscernible.
“I don’t think so. Regardless of whether it’s meaningful or not, I still have to leave. If I don’t take a few steps, how can I see the situation clearly?” The Grand Master of the Profound Master said lazily.
“Do you not trust this old man?” The old man’s voice was filled with dissatisfaction.
"Kid, how could I dare? For the sake of this little brat, you forcefully dragged me out from my closed door training. You must know that I just managed to grab a small opportunity like that …" The Grand Master of the Profound Master said somewhat helplessly.
"If it wasn’t a major event, how could I have pulled you out without knowing the seriousness of the situation? The Mirror of Samsara had already issued a warning. The guy who almost caused its collapse had come to the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Sect.
Last time, I had already warned Liu Cang and the rest of the kids that there was no need to make things convenient for Long Chen.
The Reincarnation Realm saw a corner of the iceberg and almost collapsed. This brat is probably an anomaly, now that he’s in our Mysterious Heavenly Dao Sect, it might be a great thing for them, but it might also bring about a calamity to the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Sect, so I need you to take him seriously. " That aged voice said in an extremely serious manner.
“Since you don’t trust me, why don’t you keep an eye on it yourself?” The Profound Master could not help but laugh bitterly.
“Nonsense, I’ve reached a critical juncture. I also need to go into closed-door training. How can I have so much time to keep an eye on him?” The old voice said angrily.
“Since you’ve handed it to me, then leave it to me. When I’m doing something, you’re still pointing fingers. I have my own style of doing things, so don’t worry about it.” The Grand Master said.
“Alright, I’ll leave it to you then.”
Once the old voice finished speaking, the old man no longer spoke, leaving the Profound Master to silently look at the Go board.
On the chess board, the game had been going on for who knew how many years. It was like a pool of stagnant water. No matter how it changed, the game was still in a deadlock.
"Once the stalemate is broken, it will take a lot of thought to plan it out. The outcome cannot be predicted." An unknown amount of time had passed before the Profound Master sighed.
… ….
On the stage, Long Chen and Que Xinyan faced each other. Their eyes were filled with coldness, and there was no way to conceal their killing intent. The atmosphere was extremely tense.
"Senior brother Long Chen, can you win?" A disciple asked worriedly.
"From today onwards, remember this. First, don’t call him senior brother Long Chen anymore. You must call him boss, because if my boss stands up for you guys, then he’ll treat you as brothers. Senior brother Long Chen doesn’t sound mighty and domineering enough.
Secondly, you must remember, boss is invincible and brave, and is an undefeatable wargod. At least among those of the same level, he will absolutely not lose to anyone. " Guo Ran corrected him.
Guo Ran understood Long Chen the best. He knew that Long Chen looked upon them with pity in the beginning and recalled the newly formed Dragon Blood Legion from back then. He didn’t think too much about it and simply wanted to help them out.
But as everyone continued to cooperate, trust slowly arose in their hearts, especially in times of danger. They chose to trust each other, giving their lives to their comrades.
Humans’ emotions were a type of wondrous thing. Guo Ran knew that Long Chen had already planned on leading these hot-blooded men to defeat the world together, so he had asked them to change their words.
"Many thanks, Boss Guo Ran. We understand!" The disciple was emotionally moved.
“F * ck, there’s only one boss, you better not yell so much or you’ll be beaten to death. If you want to respect me, you can call me handsome god!” Guo Ran hastily said.
That disciple: "…"
"Stop bullshitting, boss is about to make his move!" Gu Yang interrupted the two as they hurriedly looked towards the stage.
