Chapter 1236 - Oath a.s.sembly
If even Shentu Hong had spoken, even if everyone trusted him anymore, they would still have no choice but to keep their mouths shut.
Shentu Hong"s words were still effective towards them, but they still did not understand Shentu Hong"s actions. Right now, the Evil Dragon Palace"s heart was already broken up, but he was still making such a ruckus, wasn"t he trying to destroy the Evil Dragon Palace?The last time Feng Zhilin had bullied Long Chen, he had said that he would give Long Chen a pleasant surprise the next day. This was called a pleasant surprise, but he would definitely slap Long Chen hard in the face to make Evil Dragon Palace lose all face. When the hall master whom the Evil Dragon Palace trusted so much was abused like this, the Evil Dragon Palace was already unable to see anyone. In the future, how would he be able to stand in the three thousand great halls?
Thus, Long Chen and Shentu Hong adding oil to the fire at this moment was undoubtedly an extremely foolish action.
"Humph, then let"s wait until tomorrow then. I want to see what tomorrow"s Evil Dragon Palace will be like!"
"If Evil Dragon Palace allows this kind of person to become Palace Master in the future, then it"s fine if I, as his Vice Hall Master, don"t even think of doing it. Evil Dragon Palace is finished! "The few Vice Hall Masters started discussing.
However, they did not go and incite others. They were only staying for a night. To them, a night was a moment"s worth of time.
As for the others, there were some who did not obey Long Chen"s orders anymore. They had long stopped wanting to stay in the Evil Dragon Palace, and just hadn"t had a chance to leave. Amongst these people, there were some who left straightforwardly while Long Chen didn"t urge them to stay, but there were some who not only left but also instigated others to leave afterwards.
"Ye Zheng, I"ll give you a mission, cripple those who instigated others to leave on the spot." Long Chen suddenly said.Ye Zheng accepted the order. With his fighting style, he was suited to be a killer, and now that he had gone down, in an instant, wherever there were people shouting, there would be no one getting hit, as all of his arms were cut off.
When Long Chen gave the order, everyone heard it.
Even those who had just opened their mouths were all taken care of by Ye Zheng before they could remember. Those who were about to leave immediately shut their mouths.
Evil Dragon Palace was known as the Evil Dragon, but most of the people were timid like mice. Long Chen was not afraid of them fighting together, because they did not have the guts.
Fortunately, he returned to his seat and closed his eyes to rest.
The other elders and hall masters all stared at the new hall master in a daze, their faces stiff. They were vaguely convinced by Long Chen"s thunderous methods. However, they still couldn"t understand how Long Chen would pa.s.s through the next day, and how he would give them an explanation.
He could only wait for tomorrow to arrive.
In just one night, Evil Dragon Palace had lost another few thousand people. The remaining people, along with the elders and hall masters, should barely be able to make it to twenty thousand.
The emperor"s star here could not see the sun, but it had clear night and day.
When daylight descended, Long Chen opened his eyes. In that instant, his eyes exploded with a sharp glint that caused everyone to be secretly shocked. They could faintly feel that it was as if a sleeping divine dragon had awoken.During the day, the patience of the disciples had almost reached its limit. However, the people from the Punishment Hall had also almost arrived. After today, the Evil Dragon Palace would no longer know what it looked like.
The people below climbing platform gradually became lively, the nine Vice Hall Masters looked at each other, then ascended the climbing platform. Evil Dragon Palace would soon have guests, it would not be a good thing if they continued to fight inside. It was just that, the Evil Dragon Palace had lost another few thousand people, and the nine Vice Hall Masters had already blamed Long Chen for this matter.
The Vice Hall Masters at least had their own seats. They sat down one by one, and coldly looked at Long Chen with eyes that did not conceal the displeasure they had towards Long Chen.
At this time, Long Chen sat in his own seat and continued to wait without saying anything.Time slowly pa.s.sed. The ten Palace Masters that Shentu Hong had invited should have come, but none of them came. This was within everyone"s expectations, and it was rumored that the ten Palace Masters would not be present. As the Demonic Dragon Hall Master, they couldn"t even get ten hall masters to invite them. Everyone felt their faces burning, especially Shentu Hong.
"Hallmaster is doing his job well. If we continue to persevere, we might still have a chance, but you"re actually causing trouble here. Causing trouble for himself for no reason at all. Vice Hall Master Shang Wenfeng said with a cold snort from not too far away from Shentu Hong.
These words were only said for Shentu Hong"s ears.
Most people also had the same thoughts, as they did not understand Shentu Hong.
Towards this kind of situation, Shentu Hong chose to turn a blind eye. He had already spoke up for Long Chen previously, but now, he was like a gra.s.shopper on the same rope as Long Chen.
The vast majority of the people felt that Shentu Hong making Long Chen as Palace Master was the wrong choice.
Indeed, at such a young age, Long Chen already had such fighting strength, and could be considered a genius who was ranked in the top 100 of the 3000 halls. It would be fine to even make him become hall master, but this brat had no respect for his elders, had abused his power, and did not even give face to the auxiliary hall master.
It was said that he had a grudge with Feng Zhiling. When Feng Zhiling came, what could he do?Time gradually pa.s.sed, and soon, the elders of the Punishment Hall arrived.
"Rumor has it that last time, when Feng Zhilin took on the position of Palace Master, a total of over a hundred Hall Masters were invited, and some of the Hall Masters from the Eighth Stage of the Divine Martial Stage were even present as well. Only our hall master was missing, the scene was truly grand, but our Evil Dragon Palace …
"This is truly embarra.s.sing to death. We actually entered such a great hall, and are truly unlucky. We were originally fine, but now we have changed to a different hall master. We are considered finished."
"Isn"t that so? Not a single hall master has come, it would be a joke if word were to spread. This Long Chen"s reputation has already spread, but he"s still nothing but a joke. "
If Long Chen is unable to do it, and there are twenty thousand of us resisting, I don"t believe that he can still be Palace Chief. Even if I can become his commander, I"ll just be a single commander. Who will listen to him? ""Hehe, I heard that Long Chen and Feng Zhiling have a huge grudge against each other, with the help of that absolute genius, that brat won"t be able to live much longer."
The same discussion came from all directions. Long Chen couldn"t help but feel a little sad, this Evil Dragon Palace was really hopeless, a great catastrophe was about to befall him, and he was still looking down on the organization he belonged to.
If it wasn"t for you, why would you be bullied by others?In the midst of all sorts of unpleasant discussions, Long Chen remained expressionless. Everyone thought that he had been subdued by them, and immediately became overjoyed.
From the looks of it, the youth in charge of Evil Dragon Palace seemed to be a little pitiful.
Right at this moment, Feng Zhiling arrived.
Everyone raised their heads to look at the horizon. There were a total of ten figures flying over, and each one of them possessed extraordinary strength. The crowd was immediately shocked; why were there so many people?
Shentu Hong"s eyes widened, and he suddenly remembered something Long Chen had said yesterday. At first, Long Chen wanted to remove the seats that were prepared for the other Palace Masters, saying that it was for a dog. Then, he suddenly said, maybe the dog would come.
And now, just as he had said, the dog was here. This was obviously not a coincidence, but was within Long Chen"s expectations.
Amongst the newcomers, other than Feng Zhilin and her various Vice Hall Masters from the Temple of the Winds s, there were also ten Hall Masters invited by Shentu Hong, and all of them were Vice Hall Masters from various halls. Dozens of people with high statuses and positions were dragged out, but none of them were left behind.
Turning his head to look at Long Chen, he saw that Long Chen was smiling dejectedly. Shentu Hong was shocked, he knew that Long Chen had guessed that they would be coming over from the very beginning.
Long Chen naturally understood that Feng Zhiling wanted to humiliate him in front of everyone, and only then would she be able to vent her anger. Then, the more people watching, the better. Therefore, those hall masters who didn"t want to join the Evil Dragon Palace"s Oath a.s.sembly, to avoid offending Feng Zhiling, were summoned by her.
This group of experts had roughly ten times the power of the higher ups of the Evil Dragon Palace. When they descended above the climbing platform, Feng Zhilin was the leader as he looked down at the people of the Evil Dragon Palace.
A chilling atmosphere began to spread.
This was the first time many people had seen so many Palace Masters gathered together, and immediately, the disciples of Evil Dragon Palace were all silent. They were still slandering Long Chen just now.Everyone raised their heads and stretched their necks to take a look. The leading lady was shrouded in a white veil. Her clothes were fluttering in the wind, and she had a peerless beauty and talent. Wasn"t this the woman who had recently risen to fame in the 3000 Great Temples, Feng Zhiling? Behind her, the group of beautiful girls were all gathered. Wasn"t that the beauties of the Temple of the Winds, the auxiliary hall masters?
It was not good to be enemies with anyone but to be enemies with a Temple of the Winds who was beautiful like the clouds. It had to be known that every beauty in Temple of the Winds had many suitors, and it was already considered a miracle that Shentu Hong could last this long.
Long Chen knew that they would come.They descended down one after another, and found the seats Long Chen had prepared for them. There were all Palace Masters and Vice Hall Masters in the various halls, and the chairs prepared for them were enough for them to sit in.
After arriving here, it was just as Long Chen had expected. These people basically did not pay attention to Long Chen, or any other person from the Evil Dragon Palace, and started to chat and laugh with each other, as if the climbing platform was their home. They completely did not put Shentu Hong and the others in their eyes, and treated them as if they were transparent.
"Everyone, come from afar. I am forever grateful to you for giving Shentu Hong face." Shentu Hong stood up and said those words.
It was a pity that none of the Palace Masters seemed to have heard his words, as they started to flirt with each other. Just as Shentu Hong finished speaking, and just as he stood there stupidly, one of the hall masters with long hair smiled at Feng Zhiling: "Hall Master Feng became the hall master at such a young age, so you are obviously the youngest and most talented hall master in the three thousand hall. In a thousand years, Temple of the Winds will probably become a top existence in the three thousand halls!"
