Chapter 5531 Hold a Lesson
When Tang Wan-er came to find Long Chen, her expression was a bit unsightly. There was a hint of nervousness and anger on her face.
Tang Wan-er was not someone who hid her emotions well; her feelings were always written plainly on her face. Long Chen immediately knew what was happening without needing to ask.
The full force of the head pavilion had come, composed of thirty million sealed experts and countless heavenly geniuses of this era. Naturally, they didn’t forget to bring their arrogance with them.
With such a huge batch of experts, they probably swaggered about like the Emperor judging their subjects. Whatever flaws they could find, they would nitpick; if they couldn’t find any flaws, they’d make some.
Long Chen had already told Tang Wan-er to let him handle this matter. However, Tang Wan-er tried to deal with the issue herself, wanting him to rest and recover.
After all, this problem had been handed to Long Chen by her master. As the disciple, Tang Wan-er felt obligated to handle it herself.
Today was the day the head pavilion’s forces were to officially arrive. Tang Wan-er had planned to meet them, assign them a place to stay, and let Long Chen meet them later.
However, Jin Ke—the commander from last time—had returned, and this time, he had abandoned all semblance of civility. Insults and mockery poured from his mouth, enraging Tang Wan-er.
Worse, Jin Ke had made baseless accusations, even going so far as to claim that the Wind God Sea Pavilion was rebelling. He openly slandered Long Chen, accusing him of arrogance and disrespect toward the head pavilion’s experts.
On the verge of losing control, Tang Wan-er chose to leave before her fury got the better of her. She feared that if she stayed any longer, she might start killing people.
“Tch, they dare to anger my wife like this? If I don’t knock their heads around, they won’t know who Boss Long San is,” said Long Chen.
Seeing Tang Wan-er behaving like this, he found it funny but was also angry about it.
“Long Chen, if it really gets out of hand, we should just ask my master for help,” Tang Wan-er said. “Their numbers are overwhelming, and their strength is nothing to scoff at. I’m not sure we can suppress them.”
When Ye Lingkong accompanied the head pavilion’s people, he had selected a place for them to settle. He then handed Jin Ke a jade plate, granting him the authority to mobilize the Wind God Sea Pavilion’s resources. This way, Jin Ke could mess around as he wished, and they couldn’t complain about the arrangements later on.
However, instead of preparing as expected, Jin Ke had done absolutely nothing. When the rest of the head pavilion’s army arrived, he accused the branch pavilion of neglect and disrespect. He claimed that they had been forced to endure humiliation and mistreatment during their stay. But since they were in someone else’s territory, they could only endure.
Jin Ke further spread lies about Long Chen, portraying him as an arrogant disciple who had openly mocked the head pavilion’s experts. The fabricated tales had ignited outrage among the head pavilion’s forces.
Seeing the situation, Tang Wan-er rushed back in a flurry. Although she had only seen the head pavilion’s experts briefly, their sheer numbers were enough to shock her.
She wanted to clarify the truth but was overwhelmed by uncertainty. She didn’t even know who the true leader of this army was. If she had tried to say anything, they would have overwhelmed her with their numbers.
Frustrated, Tang Wan-er sought out Long Chen. Deep down, she hoped her master would intervene as she doubted that Long Chen could deal with them.
At the same time, she was a bit angry with her master. How could she just toss something like this to Long Chen? This was practically bullying.
After thinking for a bit, Long Chen replied, “There’s no need for your master to show herself for such a minor matter. Don’t worry, I can deal with them.”
“Long Chen, you don’t understand, they’re—” Tang Wan-er started, her anxiety evident as she watched his nonchalant demeanor.
“It doesn’t matter what they’re like. I’ll deal with them my way. You still don’t fully grasp your master’s intentions. Do you remember the lesson she gave you when you first arrived at the Wind God Sea Pavilion?” Long Chen asked, cutting her off.
“But...” Tang Wan-er was startled.
“You still don’t realize how powerful your master is, do you? The fact that she entrusted this issue to me shows she’s confident in cleaning up any mess we make. Even if we completely ruin things, she’ll be there to fix it,” Long Chen reassured her with a grin.
“Really?” Tang Wan-er’s eyes widened.
“Of course. I have a feeling that your master’s power exceeds your imagination. Now, gather the Hidden Dragon Legion, and I’ll call Zifeng. Let’s teach those pompous fools a lesson they’ll never forget,” Long Chen instructed.
Before long, the Hidden Dragon warriors assembled in full force. The sight of them left even Long Chen momentarily stunned.
Their eyes now gleamed with a razor-sharp intensity. Their very presence exuded a refined and lethal aura, enough to send a jolt of pain through the soul of anyone dumb enough to meet their eyes.
After enduring Yue Zifeng’s hardcore training, they had massively transformed. In this kind of state, people with slightly weaker wills wouldn’t even be able to muster the courage to fight them.
“I hear the head pavilion’s people have come here acting like they own the place,” Long Chen declared. “But remember, our motto is simple: we like arrogant people, but not those more arrogant than us! Today, we’ll teach those immature children what real arrogance is! Move out!”
The Hidden Dragon warriors roared in unison, their morale at an all-time high. Thanks to Yue Zifeng’s guidance, their power had risen immensely. While Yue Zifeng himself was dissatisfied with their rate of progress, they knew just how much they had gained under his guidance.
This was their chance to prove themselves. Their spirits were burning with anticipation as they left Hidden Dragon Island, heading straight for the head pavilion’s forces.
There was already a mass of figures in the distance, looking like a giant black cloud. Thanks to Jin Ke’s encouragement, these people had come to find trouble for Long Chen.
Tang Wan-er tensed immediately, cursing Jin Ke under her breath.
“Hmph, brat! Are you Long Chen? Get over here and kowtow three times, and I might forgive your rudeness!” a large man at the forefront shouted arrogantly.
His words drew the attention of the crowd, and when they saw Long Chen, their gazes became contemptful.
“You dare to call us trash? We’ll make you pay for your arrogance!” sneered another voice from the group.
Both sides advanced toward each other, neither showing any signs of backing down. Just as they were about to clash, Long Chen raised his voice.
“Kill!”
At that moment, the Hidden Dragon warriors unsheathed their swords. Sword Qi filled the air, flashing like streaks of lightning.
Blood rained down instantly as screams echoed across the battlefield. Caught off guard by the Hidden Dragon warriors’ ferocity, the head pavilion’s experts were mowed down.
