Chapter 54: The Frustrated Dragon-Surprised Family

Other sect leaders and elders echoed. "Exactly, Feixian Sect is poaching people across boundaries, they’re going too far." "Don’t mention it, we had a genius named Lin Ning in White Dragon Prefecture, the Dragon-Surprised Family had been keeping an eye on her for some time, planning to marry her into our family by the end of the year, but unexpectedly, she joined Feixian Sect early!" "Really not appreciating our kindness!" "Even without Eight Clouds Hall’s command, I want an explanation from Feixian Sect!" Hearing this from Patriarch Long Zhen Mountain of the Dragon-Surprised Family, everyone outwardly nodded in agreement while secretly rolling their eyes. Old brother, since she doesn’t want to marry, this is clearly a forced marriage, is there a need to be so indignant? In sitting here, who isn’t skilled in such crafty exploits? You’re acting so aggrieved, do you think everyone else is clueless? Duanmu Zhe stood up first, loudly supporting Long Zhen Mountain. "Good! Since Patriarch Long hates Feixian Sect so much, I hereby wish the Dragon-Surprised Family victory!" He spoke with great enthusiasm, but it was akin to saying nothing. You lead the charge, we’ll watch from behind. Other sect leaders and elders followed the rhythm promptly. "Right, we are willing to back Patriarch Long!" "We wish the Dragon-Surprised Family a triumphant return, we’ve prepared a celebratory feast here!" "That Feixian Sect is merely a small sect, definitely no match for the Dragon-Surprised Family; it seems the credit for this victory will be snatched by Brother Long!" Which of these people hasn’t lived for hundreds of years, with a heart full of schemes? Feixian Sect may appear with few people like a handful of kittens, but obliterating the Red Sun Sect forcibly, that’s not something just anyone can do. What Qi Cang and Lu Zhong could see, they too could see. Feixian Sect must have a big killer, recklessly attacking could lead to being counter-killed. Qi Cang’s intention, these old foxes saw clearly — he wants them to be cannon fodder. Rather than that, better send a naive one to test the waters first. Especially knowing the existence of the Three-Eyed Tiger, Duanmu Zhe would never foolishly charge forward. "This..." "You all?" Long Zhen Mountain was frustrated. Weren’t we just venting together, jointly denouncing Feixian Sect? How did it suddenly become my solo affair? "I think this matter requires further deliberation; wiping out Feixian Sect isn’t just my Dragon-Surprised Family’s business..." "Hmm?" Master Jiuluo revealed a disdainful expression, "Patriarch Long, didn’t you just say you wanted an explanation from Feixian Sect? What, were you only talking?" "Exactly, so Brother Long only dares boast, but doesn’t actually dare offend Feixian Sect?" "Even White Dragon Prefecture’s ruler acts so timidly, it’s laughable." "In my view, the Dragon-Surprised Family doesn’t care about Young Master Qi’s command, only pretending to comply?" This alliance was forcibly grouped by Qi Cang, or else there’d be friction or even hatred among them. This is both provocation and accusation, but Long Zhen Mountain still held it in. "Do not slander me, I will definitely obey Young Master Qi’s commands, but the young master hasn’t ordered my Dragon-Surprised Family to attack immediately..." Before he finished speaking, someone flew in from outside the hall; wasn’t it Qi Cang? "In that case, Patriarch Long, lead the Dragon-Surprised Family and attack Feixian Sect!" He thought about it, and figured it’s better to attack first to test the waters. After all, he hadn’t even seen the Three-Eyed Tiger yet. At least understand its true power? As for whether the Dragon-Surprised Family might be counter-killed, it wasn’t in his concern. All are just pawns, losing the Dragon-Surprised Family means nothing to him. "Young Master!" "Greetings, Young Master!" Everyone in the hall stood and saluted, while Long Zhen Mountain’s expression looked like constipation. How could he not see, he was sold out by Qi Cang. Yet, he couldn’t resist. Just Lu Zhong behind Qi Cang was enough to slaughter the seventy-plus experts from Dragon-Surprised Family present. "This, what about Feixian Sect..." Qi Cang’s face sank, "What, stalling and hesitating, are you trying to defy Eight Clouds Hall?" Long Zhen Mountain cursed internally, but could only say, "I wouldn’t dare, I’ll go immediately..." Defy orders now and die. Carry out the attack, perhaps survival remains possible. "Alright, hope you as the vanguard can achieve a triumphant battle!" No chance for triumph, Long Zhen Mountain looked back step by step, regrettably seeing no change in command. Other sect leaders felt gleeful but secretly relieved, thankful they weren’t named. On the other hand, Jiang Cheng naturally received the news of being besieged by the Eight Sects. Finally coming? Eight Great Sects, how many points can they bring? This time, not only is upgrading more than enough, a few rounds of lottery should be possible, right? Thinking about it, kind of exciting. "Sect Leader!" "Heard Eight Great Sects intend to besiege us!" "Yeah, what to do?" All second and third-generation disciples gathered, even Ji Linghan and Lin Ning, just closed from retreat, were not exceptions. Eight Great Sects, so many Spirit Platform Realms. Though they had great confidence in Jiang Cheng, this array was a bit overwhelming. Equivalent to eight Red Sun Sects. If still calm and unruffled, now that would be abnormal. "Sect Leader, tell us how to fend off the enemy!" "Indeed, we shall not retreat!" Looking at them, eyes filled with resolve and war spirit, Jiang Cheng was quite speechless. Can’t you peacefully cultivate, upgrade soon, and earn more points for me? "I didn’t call you here, why all the fuss?" "Enemies are about to hit our doorstep; it’s the moment of life and death for the sect..." Luo Yuan spoke hesitantly, suddenly realizing. Right, they still didn’t know the true strength of the Sect Leader, Jiang Cheng. He changed his tone, looking expectant, "Does the Sect Leader already have a strategy to defeat the enemy?" Brother Cheng hadn’t replied yet, Shan Tai and others began competing to flatter. "Sect Leader is truly a divine being, just eight sects are no more than mere rookies, easily defeated!" "With Sect Leader’s actions, they aren’t even enough to kill." "Though Sect Leader is always merciful, the Eight Sects seek their own doom; can’t blame him!" "I bet the Sect Leader needs only an hour to wipe them out!" "An hour? You underestimate the Sect Leader? I guess at most a quarter hour!" "A quarter hour? It’s just a matter of one move!" This flattery, even with Brother Cheng’s thick skin, was a bit too much. Though he had the Undefeated System, was one move too high an expectation? Third-generation disciples were bewildered, struggling to adapt to this absurd scene. They began doubting if their master had gone mad. By this time, people from Dragon-Surprised Family had also entered Feixian Sect’s mountain gate range. Active entry, Feixian Sect had too few people, their sect protection array was destroyed last time, thus unobstructed passage. Ah Huang transmitted a message to Jiang Cheng’s ears. "Mommy, 74 strangers have entered, should I drain their spiritual power?" "Draining their spiritual power, would you consume much?" "Yes, the more people, the greater my consumption. But as long as mommy wishes, I can still do it." "Such a dutiful daughter, but this time, let them come."
