Chapter 566: Hurry Up and Come Out to Die

Chapter 566: Chapter 566: Hurry Up and Come Out to Die

Wang Hao had lost this battle.

Although a million parts of him refused to admit it, Wang Hao knew that if he continued to fight, he would undoubtedly die.

Not daring to linger, he turned and fled.

How could Long Ao possibly pass up this chance? He first returned to the Dragon Seal Space for a moment, then immediately shot off in pursuit.

However, Wang Hao was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, he had vanished without a trace.

Long Ao clenched his fists tightly, feeling utterly unwilling to let this go. ’If it were an ordinary Semi-Saint, it would be one thing, but Wang Hao is different. He is a Reincarnation Martial Artist. Once he awakens his Divine Spirit, he’ll become a Divine Dao Martial Artist.’

A Divine Dao Martial Artist—one of the most powerful beings in Heaven and Earth.

’If Wang Hao really achieves the Divine Dao and comes looking for trouble for me in Kyushu, wouldn’t that be like letting a tiger return to the mountains, just asking for future disaster?’

Long Ao didn’t give up. He began searching for Wang Hao’s whereabouts, and only after several hours of fruitless searching did he finally turn back toward Yun City.

「The Long Family Estate, Long Heng’s residence.」

As soon as Long Ao returned to the Long Family, he felt that the atmosphere was completely off. The way everyone looked at him was different. ’What on earth happened?’

Quickening his pace, Long Ao entered the private courtyard. The moment he pushed open the door, he saw Long Heng lying on the bed.

"What happened?"

His intuition told him this was definitely related to the Holy Mountain, and sure enough, he was right.

"Master, I..."

"Patriarch Long, I want the truth."

Of course, Long Bai wouldn’t hide anything; the matter was already common knowledge. He then recounted everything that had happened, down to the last detail.

After listening, Long Ao wasn’t furious or frantic as they had imagined. Instead, he was eerily calm, leaving both Long Bai and Long Heng unsure of what to do.

Suddenly, Long Ao asked, "Are Zhou Dian and his group still in Yun City?"

"Yes. It seems Zhou Dian is waiting for you to show up, so he hasn’t left Yun City. He’s staying at the Wang Family’s estate."

"Wait for my return."

"Master!"

Before he could even finish the word, Long Ao’s figure had already vanished. A worried expression filled Long Heng’s face as he said helplessly, "Dad, let’s go watch, too."

Nodding, Long Bai knew exactly what Long Ao was going to do; he just didn’t want to believe it.

Zhou Dian was a Semi-Saint Martial Artist, but Long Ao?

For Long Ao to challenge a Semi-Saint with his strength at the Peak of Great Venerable was simply suicidal. Long Bai knew his son was completely devoted to Long Ao, so he didn’t say much more. He and Long Heng quietly left the Long Family estate.

Long Heng and Long Bai’s intentions were simple: no matter what happened, this matter had nothing to do with the Long Family.

「Yun City, the Wang Family Estate.」

As one of the three great families, the Wang Family’s power and heritage spoke for themselves. According to rumors, their relationship with the Holy Mountain was quite good; otherwise, Zhou Dian would not be staying with them.

「The Wang Family Estate, rear courtyard.」

Wang Luo, Wang Yi, Zhou Dian, Ouyang Mengchun, and the others were chatting and laughing jovially. Just as Long Bai had said, Zhou Dian hadn’t left Yun City mainly because he was waiting for Long Ao.

The reason was simple. Zhou Dian was completely confident that once Long Ao heard the news of his disciple’s arm being severed, he wouldn’t let the matter rest. As long as he came rushing over in a fit of rage, it would be a one-way trip.

"Third Elder, in the next great family competition, our Wang Family will definitely defeat the Ye Family and the Long Family to take the top spot."

Zhou Dian smiled and said, "I have high hopes for the Wang Family. I’ve always maintained that Yun City only needs one family, but some people always disagree. No matter. As long as the Wang Family develops well and obediently follows orders, you’ll become the masters of Yun City sooner or later."

"Thank you."

The Wang Family Master, Wang Luo, and their top expert, Wang Yi, were overjoyed. Having latched onto such a powerful backer, their family’s future looked incredibly bright.

"Third Elder, after you severed Long Heng’s arm, Long Ao might not have the guts to show up. After all, he’s only a Great Venerable Martial Artist."

Nodding, Zhou Dian said, "I didn’t consider that at the time. It seems Long Ao isn’t coming. I’ll be returning to the Sacred Land shortly. My advice remains the same: develop your family’s power, be obedient, and take first place in this great family competition. When you do, I’ll be able to put in a good word for you at the Sacred Land."

"Rest assured, Third Elder. We guarantee there will be no mistakes in this competition between the three great families."

"Third Elder, if you leave and Long Ao pulls a surprise attack, showing up at our door, how should we handle him?"

Wang Luo’s meaning was simple: he was asking whether they should kill Long Ao on sight or capture him and hand him over.

Zhou Dian was a cunning old fox; how could he not understand Wang Luo’s meaning?

Nodding in appreciation, Zhou Dian said with a smile, "Don’t worry about me. If Long Ao really does show up, just kill him. But remember one thing: his corpse must be hung outside the walls of Yun City for all to see. I’d like to see who else will dare to defy and disrespect the Sacred Land in the future."

"Third Elder, you can count on us."

Neither Wang Luo nor Zhou Dian seemed to take Long Ao seriously at all.

Being able to fight Wang Hao to a standstill only proved that Long Ao’s strength was infinitely close to a Realm King. Never mind a Semi-Saint Martial Artist, even a Realm Emperor could crush Long Ao with ease.

Because of this, neither the Wang Family nor Zhou Dian gave Long Ao a second thought. Both sides were eagerly anticipating him to charge over in a rage, which would be like catching a turtle in a jar.

"Third Elder, I have one more presumptuous request."

"Speak."

"I hope the Third Elder might stay a few more days to guide our junior disciples. You have always been their idol, Third Elder. Since you’re here, perhaps you could offer some guidance."

It had to be said, Wang Luo was a world-class bootlicker. Zhou Dian clearly enjoyed it, nodding as if reluctant, and said, "If that’s the case, then I’ll stay a few more days and offer some guidance."

Wang Luo was ecstatic. His thinking was actually quite simple: he just wanted to keep Zhou Dian around for a few more days to build a better relationship, which would be an extremely beneficial thing for his family.

"Zhou Dian, you piece of trash! Get out here and die!"

Zhou Dian, you piece of trash! Get out here and die! Zhou Dian, you piece of trash! Get out here and die...!

Just then, furious roars suddenly echoed from outside, the sound spreading in all directions. Everyone who heard it had their expressions change as they all turned to look at Zhou Dian. They had all already guessed who was roaring insults at him.

"Courting death."

"He doesn’t know what’s good for him! Long Ao actually dared to come. This time, I’ll make sure he never leaves. Senior, rest assured, leave this matter to my Wang Family."

Waving his hand, Zhou Dian’s expression was also extremely ugly. As an Elder of the Sacred Land and a Semi-Saint Martial Artist, when had he ever been cursed at so openly? This was an utterly intolerable insult.

"We go out together. I want to see for myself if this legendary Long Ao really has three heads and six arms."
