Chapter 965 - 963: This Man Is Formidable
"Shen Yan, don’t speak, this person is very formidable," Chen Tianlong hurriedly whispered in Shen Yan’s ear.
At this moment, Murong Fu suddenly got up from his seat, flashed in front of Chen Tianlong, and slapped him on the face.
"Slap..."
The crisp sound made Chen Tianlong’s face instantly half red. The speed was truly too fast; before Chen Tianlong could react, this person was already right in front of him. As expected, Celestial Dao five stars is no joke.
"Kid, I hate people whispering in others’ ears. If you have something to say, say it directly."
After Murong Fu’s scolding, he swiftly flew around again, seemingly at ease within the room.
Murong Fa watched with wide eyes and open mouth, realizing that Murong Fu was really powerful—he hit without warning and moved with the speed of the wind, truly too fast.
Seeing the scene where Murong Fu had just slapped Chen Tianlong’s face, Murong Fa felt a wave of satisfaction, although he was somewhat disappointed that he couldn’t do it himself.
"Old man, why do you go around hitting people? You’re not allowed to hit my Tianlong," Lu Xiaoyu couldn’t remain calm at this moment; she had never seen Chen Tianlong being treated like this, unless in a fight.
And now Chen Tianlong clearly hadn’t done anything wrong, so why were they treating him like this?
"Haha, I hit whoever I want, none of your business. And, what did you just call me? You’d better change that immediately, or else..."
"Hmph, or else what? Aren’t you an old man? Just because you wear glasses doesn’t mean I can’t tell. You’re an old man, and if you hit my Tianlong, you’re a stinky old man."
Lu Xiaoyu was not afraid in the slightest; instead, she was defiant. In her heart, anyone daring to bully Chen Tianlong would not be let off easily, even if she had to risk her life.
Chen Tianlong was taken aback and quickly pulled Lu Xiaoyu close to him, worried that Murong Fu might attack her shortly.
"You... very good, missy, you have successfully angered me. You think you’re young and beautiful, huh? Well, let me tell you, those who offend me, Murong Fu, will turn into ugly monsters." Saying this, Murong Fu prepared to lay hands on Lu Xiaoyu.
At this moment, Chen Tianlong spoke up.
"Hold it!"
Chen Tianlong placed Lu Xiaoyu behind him and said, "She’s my wife. If you want to deal with her, you have to ask me first. Although you’re Celestial Dao five stars, I know, you can’t be too arrogant either. I also have backers."
Chen Tianlong directly mentioned his powerful connections, having thought it through, knowing that only by bringing up his connections could he possibly intimidate Murong Fu. After all, Murong Fu didn’t know his background, and wouldn’t kill him for no reason.
Upon hearing Chen Tianlong’s words, Murong Fu’s expression subtly changed, not because Chen Tianlong had connections, but because Chen Tianlong could perceive his strength.
In the cultivation world, only those more advanced than oneself can discern the strength of lower-level cultivators. So does this mean Chen Tianlong is more advanced than him?
However, after observing for a while, Murong Fu concluded that a Celestial Dao one star wouldn’t be a match for him and immediately felt relieved.
Nevertheless, Chen Tianlong’s earlier words needed reevaluating.
If Chen Tianlong truly could discern his strength, it indicated that Chen Tianlong wasn’t an ordinary cultivator but someone with powerful connections.
"Then tell me about your backing, let’s see if it can intimidate me," Murong Fu said playfully.
He felt that in the Mortal Realm, what backing could there possibly be—at most some faction or family, with strength at best reaching Celestial Dao one star, posing no threat to their Ice Spirit Sword Manor.
"Have you heard of the Black Panther Assassin Group? I am a member of the Black Panther Assassin Group. If you want to act against me, the Black Panther Assassin Group will immediately deploy a large team to hunt down your Ice Spirit Sword Manor."
Chen Tianlong thought for a moment and directly brought up the Black Panther Assassin Group, hoping it could suppress the Ice Spirit Sword Manor.
"Black Panther Assassin Group? What’s the Black Panther Assassin Group?"
Murong Fu looked at Chen Tianlong disdainfully. If it was really the Black Panther Assassin Group, Murong Fu wasn’t afraid of them. Although there was an expert in the Black Panther Assassin Group at the Celestial Dao level, they rarely dealt with group affairs and wouldn’t personally come to Ice Extreme Town to settle scores.
"Haha, I said what I needed to say. I don’t know why you are so hostile towards me. If I’m not mistaken, I don’t have any feud with your Ice Spirit Sword Manor. No grievances or enmity, so there’s no need to kill me, right?"
Chen Tianlong calmly analyzed: "If you provoke the Black Panther Assassin Group for a momentary thrill, although your Ice Spirit Sword Manor is powerful, having one less enemy is better than having more. After all, Ice Extreme Town is not that peaceful, aren’t you afraid of us joining forces with other experts to attack you?"
"Hiss..."
Hearing Chen Tianlong’s words, Murong Fu took a deep breath. Chen Tianlong was right; Murong Fu’s greatest fear was someone joining forces to strike them. The Black Panther Assassin Group was quite formidable, making the odds smaller.
If what Chen Tianlong said was true—that he belonged to the Black Panther Assassin Group and possessed such capabilities—he must hold a significant position. Killing him would likely provoke retaliation from the Black Panther Assassin Group, making the situation dangerous.
"You little fellow, sharp-tongued indeed, truly extraordinary. However, you have a grudge with Murong Fa, and I will not let you go," Murong Fu thought for a moment and directly revealed the truth.
"I finally understand, it was all Murong Fa’s tricks," Chen Tianlong resolutely said.
"Hmph, you spoiled my plans. My cultivation grounds were destroyed by you; are you going to compensate me?" Situ Fa was clearly very angry.
"Oh dear, young man, you must’ve misunderstood. I was escaping for my life; there was an earthquake inside. Should I wait inside to die? That’s easy to say from a standing position." Chen Tianlong rolled his eyes at Murong Fa and said.
"Exactly, your life is life, but ours isn’t? We only broke through the cave top to escape, not for any other reason," Lu Xiaoyu also joined in to assist.
"Tianlong, help me. This person is too arrogant; you must help me deal with him." Seeing Chen Tianlong’s group cooperating to oppose him, Murong Fa had no choice but to use his trump card.
Beside him, Murong Tian couldn’t understand what they were discussing but knew one thing: no matter Murong Fa’s mistakes, he was always right. In the Murong Black Alliance, he had only Murong Fa as a comrade, while the others were enemies.
"Chen Tianlong, right? Stop trying to weasel out. Whether my father lets you go or not, I won’t spare you today." Murong Tian said this, stood up, and swiftly moved to Chen Tianlong’s front.
Chen Tianlong furrowed his brow. This guy sure is obsessed, united with his brother, dead set on annihilating them.
At this moment, Chen Tianlong began to employ his cultivation technique, realizing he might have to escape soon. Otherwise, if this kid attacked, he would have to fight back, and regardless of victory, Murong Fu wouldn’t spare them.
