Chapter 6342 Orders
The golden pill thrummed with karmic-luck energy. In its tiny shell lay more potency than Long Xu had absorbed in the past few days.
“Senior, are you really going to give something so precious to him?” asked Long Chen.
The Earth Cauldron’s voice rang out in Long Chen’s mind. “During your battle, I was also absorbing karmic luck energy. The Sovereign flame energy was absorbed by you, and the dragon race’s karmic luck energy was naturally for those children, so I only absorbed some of the vile dragon race’s karmic luck. However, their karmic luck energy is filled with evil elements. I’ve absorbed the best essence, but as for the rest, I could only discard them. Give the pill to him.”
It seemed the Earth Cauldron had silently profited from this battle as well. Long Chen eyed Long Xu, who was quivering with excitement. He sensed more keenly than anyone the energy contained within this pill.
“If you have this pill, how likely are you to successfully condense your final Sovereign flame?” asked Long Chen as he tossed it to Long Xu.
Long Xu received it reverently. The surge of karmic luck inside made him tremble.
“Master, are you really giving this medicinal pill to me?”
“Answer me!” said Long Chen impatiently.
Long Xu quickly thought about it and replied, “With this pill, I have at least a sixty percent chance of directly advancing.”
“Sixty percent...” Long Chen frowned. Still too low, but it couldn’t be helped.
“Take it. Find a place to condense your final Sovereign flame.”
Long Xu was overjoyed. Long Chen truly meant to give him this treasure. Yet he soon calmed down and asked cautiously, “And if I fail?”
“If you fail, find a place to kill yourself. Otherwise, I’ll kill you myself the next time we meet. If you can’t advance with such a heaven-defying pill, you’re garbage. And garbage isn’t qualified to be my servant,” said Long Chen frostily.
“I will definitely succeed! I will not disappoint Master’s expectations!” promised Long Xu.
Naturally, he had to say such a thing. If he failed, he wouldn’t be qualified to live.
“Once you advance, before Long Wu appears, find the other two peak experts of the vile dragon race and make them your subordinates. I want the authority of the vile dragon race’s junior generation in your hands,” ordered Long Chen.
“Yes! Even if I encounter Long Wu, I will definitely cut off his head and give it to you!”
Long Chen’s orders were clear, and Long Xu was already envisioning the day he surpassed Long Wu to become the vile dragon race’s number one figure.
“Long Wu’s life is mine. Unless you have no other choice, avoid a frontal clash with him,” said Long Chen.
Long Wu couldn’t be underestimated. He had many trump cards, and his contractual beast was terrifying. If Long Xu died because of him, Long Chen’s effort would be wasted.
“You must condense the maximum Sovereign flames before Long Wu so that the others submit to you. Then treat them a little better, toss them some bait, and they’ll naturally choose you over him. By the time Long Wu completes his final flame, it’ll be too late. How can he compete with you, alone?” said Long Chen.
“Master, you’re right! I will remember your instructions!” said Long Wu excitedly.
Dragons rarely relied on schemes, and the vile dragon race even less so. To Long Xu, Long Chen’s simple human stratagems seemed like a genius move.
Long Chen continued, “After unifying the vile dragon race, blame this defeat of the vile dragon race on Long Wu. Say that he sent his subordinates to their death while he fled on his own.Make him out as a selfish coward with no leadership. In contrast, you are the hero who led the survivors through slaughter. While the others died heroically, you managed to slaughter your way out. I’m sure I don’t need to explain any further.”
As Long Xu listened, his jaw dropped. Although the vile dragon race had a sinister aura, they still worshiped the strong. He hadn’t expected Long Chen to have set all this up for him.
“Master, you’re incredible!” praised Long Xu.
“Alright, go. Remember, I spared your life, but I can take it any time. No matter how strong you grow, don’t think of betraying me. I won’t give you a second chance,” warned Long Chen.
“Yes. I will engrave Master’s words into my heart!” promised Long Xu.
“Again, follow me, and you’ll profit. Now go.”
After using both carrot and stick, Long Chen dismissed him. Long Xu respectfully retreated three steps and bowed to Long Chen before vanishing.
“How shameless. You might as well have just killed him and gained a few more Sovereign flames!” Evilmoon finally spoke up.
“Compared to a few Sovereign flames, a loyal servant is more useful,” replied Long Chen.
“How do you know he’s loyal? He might instantly turn on you after leaving. How do you know what kind of scheme he’s cooking up?” snorted Evilmoon.
“He isn’t a good person, but he’s ruthless and greedy. That makes him reliable. Right now, he still dreams of turning on me. That’s because he hasn’t yet tasted what I can give him. Once he does, power and authority will bind him. Even without a slave seal, he’ll be loyal,” said Long Chen with a smile.
“Hmph, big words.” Evilmoon refused to believe it.
“What I lose is not mine; what I want becomes my own shackles, hehe.” Long Chen simply chuckled and didn’t explain any further.
Evilmoon asked what he meant, but Long Chen only laughed, which irritated Evilmoon further. Finally, it turned to the Earth Cauldron.
The Earth Cauldron explained, “What can be lost was not yours from the start, so there’s no need to worry about losing it. If you pursue reputation, that is all you will see. If you seek authority, that is all you will see. In the end, you bind yourself. What Long Xu desires is already in Long Chen’s hands. Once he realizes this, those chains will bind him tighter than any slave seal.”
The Earth Cauldron’s temper was truly admirable. Despite Evilmoon’s many curses, it held no grudge and even explained the logic to Evilmoon.
Evilmoon was about to retort when a powerful sacred aura suddenly drew their attention.
