Chapter 948 - 946: Departing for the Fire Domain
Lin Jun nodded, to be honest, he admired Chen Tianlong a lot. Not only was he very capable, he was also kind to others, making him a good friend.
Chen Tianlong didn’t stay long, since Lu Xiaoyu was still waiting for him outside.
Outside.
Wu Mengting and Lu Xiaoyu were anxious, pacing back and forth. It was already almost ten minutes, and they could only hear screams and roars coming from inside, nothing else.
If Chen Tianlong hadn’t instructed them, they would have driven over to see what was happening.
"Mengting, why hasn’t Tianlong come out yet, it’s killing me." Lu Xiaoyu’s hands gripping the steering wheel were already drenched with sweat, she was incredibly nervous.
"I’m not sure either, but I do believe in Chen Tianlong, he will definitely be fine." Wu Mengting was also constantly reassuring herself. The Lin Family Army had a total of forty thousand, twenty thousand were already at the Lin Family and the border, the remaining twenty thousand were in the barracks.
Although Chen Tianlong was powerful, facing an attack from twenty thousand elite soldiers, he’s not a god, he couldn’t possibly withstand it.
Just as the two were incredibly anxious, a few girls suddenly appeared in front of them. Upon closer look, Lu Xiaoyu realized it was Teacher Shen Yan and immediately cheered up.
"Teacher Shen Yan, over here, Meijia’s this way." Lu Xiaoyu shouted excitedly.
"Hey, you can’t drive the car over there, making them walk such a distance." Wu Mengting muttered.
"Oh? Right, I almost forgot." Lu Xiaoyu grinned and drove over excitedly, but in her excitement, she floored the gas pedal, catching Chen Tianlong off guard as he realized Lu Xiaoyu was about to crash into him.
"Xiaoyu, brake quickly!" Wu Mengting was shocked, hurriedly reminding her.
"Ah? Oh...."
In her overexcitement, Lu Xiaoyu hastily stepped on the brake. Holding Shen Yan, Chen Tianlong barely dodged, but the position was very ambiguous, their bodies pressed closely against each other.
"Ahem... Senior Brother, the car... the car is here." Liu Ting, noticing Wu Mengting’s sharp gaze, quickly reminded Chen Tianlong.
Catching the signal, Chen Tianlong hastily released Shen Yan, let out a bitter laugh, and walked towards the car: "Xiaoyu, what are you doing, how are you driving."
"Oh my, my bad, almost committed husbandicide." Lu Xiaoyu grinned sheepishly.
"...."
Chen Tianlong was speechless, but luckily Wu Mengting didn’t pay much attention and instead opened the door, allowing everyone to get in.
Because there were seven of them, space was a bit tight, so the front passenger seat had to accommodate two people, naturally, Wu Mengting and Liu Ting. The two of them were slim, so even sitting together wasn’t too cramped.
"Ladies, are you all settled in?"
After getting into the driver’s seat, Chen Tianlong looked at the back, indeed it was a bit crowded. He originally thought about changing cars, but since he had already had a fallout with Lin Kaifeng, and they only gave him one hour, over half an hour had passed already, if they didn’t get out now, they really wouldn’t make it.
"All set." Wu Mengting, representing all the ladies, was the first to respond.
Receiving the signal, Chen Tianlong started the car and quickly headed towards the eastern Fire Domain. Passing through the city gate, there was still a team of a few dozen people, but this time they didn’t block the entrance, people were coming and going freely.
Soon, the car left the city gate, and only then did Chen Tianlong let out a deep breath, finally out....
Within the Celestial Pill Sect’s territory.
Shi Xiaohong, after traveling across many mountains and rivers, finally brought back the bodies of the two brothers to the Celestial Pill Sect. At this moment, everyone in the sect gathered around, looking at the lifeless bodies of Lao Shi and Lao Jiu, and a sense of anger erupted.
"Damn it, who did this, I want to take them down," said the Fifth Brother, Hua Wucan.
Hua Wucan, strength at one-star Celestial Dao, was the weakest among the five Celestial Dao disciples of the Celestial Pill Sect, but he was the most loyal. Seeing the two junior brothers beaten to death, he was immediately furious.
Seeing Fifth Brother angry, Shi Xiaohong knew the opportunity came and quickly ran over, saying: "Fifth Brother, you may not know, that person is Chen Tianlong, a master from the Mortal Realm. This person is not only arrogant and disregarding others, but also cunning. That’s why Lao Shi and Lao Jiu fell victim, and I was also beaten with all my meridians severed. If it weren’t for the Great Rejuvenation Pill protecting me, I might have been done for by now."
Shi Xiaohong cried out his grievances, portraying extreme melancholy.
The disciples nearby, hearing this, also gathered around. They thought that someone who could kill these two must be a formidable figure. But they also wondered, when did such a powerful person appear in the Mortal Realm?
"What’s going on, make way!" Suddenly, a clamor arose from behind, and a few people walked out of the hall. Leading them was a man holding a Peach Blossom Fan, looking about twenty-five or six, and quite handsome.
The people speaking were disciples by his side, and this man was the first disciple of the Celestial Pill Sect, Chen Hai.
Chen Hai was the most beloved disciple of the Sect Leader Pure Yang Daoist, and the most admired by all the disciples, young and promising, with the highest strength among the disciples, extremely talented.
Even Shi Xiaohong was a bit excited, being the nephew of the Sect Leader, he had some status, but compared to Chen Hai, there was still a gap.
After all, he was a candidate for the future Sect Leader of the Celestial Pill Sect.
"What happened here?" As soon as Chen Hai spoke, the weight of his voice made everyone present immediately look up, as his position was only second to the Sect Leader, who dared to provoke him.
It could be said that besides Second Uncle Taiyi and Third Uncle Sikong Jingyun, no one dared say no in front of him.
"Big... Big Brother....."
"Big Brother, it’s like this, Lao Shi and Lao Jiu were ordered by Master to go to South Sea City with me to look for the Innate Pill Furnace, but we encountered a ruthless person named Chen Tianlong, who...."
"Stop, focus on the main points. First, did you bring back the Pill Furnace body, and second, did you take down that ruthless person?" Chen Hai swiftly highlighted the crux of the matter.
Everyone looked at Chen Hai’s attitude and knew that he already looked down on Shi Xiaohong.
No wonder, Shi Xiaohong, a mere Profound Dao Two Stars, was just a kid in Chen Hai’s eyes. Knowing he messed up this time, he was very angry. Such an easy task, he didn’t accomplish, and he dared to play pitiful here.
"Well... That boy Chen Tianlong was too cunning, I...."
"Enough, so you didn’t accomplish either task, then hurry to the hall to wait for punishment?" Chen Hai suddenly sneered, then walked to the front of everyone, "All of you disperse, these two useless cowards, couldn’t even handle a low-level Mortal Realm brat, and instead got taken down, truly tarnishing the Celestial Pill Sect’s reputation, take them away for cremation."
The Master is in seclusion, and now he is acting as Sect Leader. The Celestial Pill Sect’s trial has been postponed to August 10th, and a hero post has been widely issued to notify everyone.
Pure Yang Daoist has grasped the opportunity to break through to the Extreme Dao, initially expected to exit seclusion on July 15th, now delayed by about twenty days.
Upon hearing this, all the disciples shuddered, not daring to speak, as this Big Brother’s actions could be lethal.
