Capítulo 1552: Chapter 1518: Dragon Gate’s Show of Force (Part 3)
Zhao Lianqing and Zhao Lianwei were well-prepared, not frightened in the slightest. Both had confidence; their strength was nearing Great Perfection. At their age, reaching this level of skill was already quite an achievent.
The two of them had been practicing martial arts beside their grandfather since childhood. With guidance from a master of Three ridians True Qi, their skills were naturally formidable. Song Xiaodong was about the sa age as them, but they refused to believe Song Xiaodong could surpass either of them.
Now, Song Xiaodong was attacking them both simultaneously, leading them to believe Song Xiaodong was overconfident. With a loud shout, both exerted their full strength, charging directly toward Song Xiaodong’s palm.
They were indeed brave, thinking they could seriously injure Song Xiaodong with one strike, establish their status, and cause this so-called Dragon Gate to collapse.
For ordinary people or even most martial arts experts, their strength was quite sufficient. Among their peers, finding soone of comparable skill was exceptionally rare.
But they now faced Song Xiaodong, who had already mastered Two ridians True Qi, combining Su Yuya and Sun Yiyi’s Innate True Qi, and was a seasoned master.
Song Xiaodong’s hands t theirs, Zhao Lianwei and Zhao Lianqing’s eyes showing vicious determination. Instead of holding back, they increased their intensity.
However, when their palms clashed with Song Xiaodong’s, there was no rebounding force felt from Song Xiaodong’s hand. Their strikes felt like hitting empty air.
This misfire was a major taboo, leaving them feeling awkward, with a sudden pause in their chest.
Song Xiaodong’s hands moved smoothly over their arms, tapping their elbows, sapping the strength from their arms. He then seized their necks as if plucking a wallet from a pocket.
With a lift, Song Xiaodong hoisted them both into the air.
Though Zhao Lianwei and Zhao Lianqing were skilled, being gripped by the neck rendered them unable to use their True Qi, a suffocating sensation overtook them, filling them with horror, the fear of death overwhelming their minds.
“Stop!”
With a loud yell, several people hurried to Song Xiaodong’s side—mostly elderly n in their sixties and seventies, clearly elders of the Dragon Gate.

Song Xiaodong didn’t even glance at them, tightening his grip slowly, while Zhao Lianwei and Zhao Lianqing, suspended in the air, were on the verge of suffocation, seconds away from death at Song Xiaodong’s hands.
“Stop! Release them both!” A tall, imposing elder stepped up to Song Xiaodong, reaching out to strike him.
Stepping aside swiftly, Song Xiaodong shot the elder a glare. “Who dares lay hands on the Dragon Gate Young Master?”
The elder was about to attack when Song Xiaodong’s shout made him pause instinctively.
The other elders remained silent, observing the unfolding events.
After hesitating, the elder respectfully bowed to Song Xiaodong, saying, “Young Master, I am Zhao Chengguo, an elder of the Dragon Gate. These two are my grandsons. I plead with you to be rciful and spare them.”
Song Xiaodong coldly said to Zhao Chengguo, “Elder Zhao, let
ask you; if your grandsons insult the Dragon Gate and its Young Master and dare lay hands on , what punishnt should they receive?”
Zhao Chengguo’s mouth twitched, answering, “Such offenses are punishable by death, but as they are young and ignorant, and the Dragon Gate is in need of people, I plead for their pardon.”
Song Xiaodong snorted, “Their disrespect towards
can be overlooked, but their insult to the entire Dragon Gate cannot. I wonder how Elder Zhao has been teaching them.”
Zhao Chengguo hurriedly responded, “The Dragon Gate matters are confidential, and even if they are my grandsons, I scarcely ntion them. This ti, I brought them to help revive the Dragon Gate, and I assure you, I will discipline them strictly.”
Song Xiaodong surveyed the other elders before returning his gaze to Zhao Chengguo. “Their insult to the Dragon Gate ans I will not kill them, yet I must cripple their martial arts as a punishnt. Do you have any objections?”
Aghast, Zhao Chengguo pleaded, “Young Master…”
Lin Feng interrupted Zhao Chengguo loudly, “The Young Master’s decision is most appropriate. This is already leniency—by the Dragon Gate’s rules, they would face a death by a thousand swords.”
Lin Feng holds considerable status among the elders, and as he spoke, others echoed his stance.
The remaining elders, though silent, clearly wished to remain uninvolved, curious about how Song Xiaodong would resolve the issue.
“Thump!” Song Xiaodong suddenly released them, and as Zhao Lianqing and Zhao Lianwei fell, Song Xiaodong struck their Dantian with both palms.
Zhao Lianqing and Zhao Lianwei collapsed weakly to the ground, gasping for air.
Zhao Lianguo quickly supported the two youths, checking their pulse, his complexion darkening as he realized Song Xiaodong truly crippled their True Qi.
