226: Chapter 226: The Second Condition (Part One) 226: Chapter 226: The Second Condition (Part One) ng Jun shuddered, feeling cold all over.
He originally thought he had done everything flawlessly, but he did not expect Long Yan to effortlessly see through all of it, causing his plan to shatter into pieces.
“Damn it!”
Zhuge Qianzhong’s face turned dark in an instant, a hint of murderous intent flashing through his eyes: “Ninth Elder, Pill King Hall has treated you well, why would you do this?”
ng Jun was the Ninth Elder of Pill King Hall, and a Pill King himself, with a cultivation base of fourth-level Martial King.
At this mont, Zhuge Qianzhong was filled with resentnt, wishing he could tear ng Jun into countless pieces.
The four sets of Earth Order Battle Skills that were about to fall into his hands were all ruined because of ng Jun.
“Damn traitor!”
Everyone from Pill King Hall looked at ng Jun with hatred, especially Second Elder Moyuan, whose eyes were already filled with killing intent.
“Why?”
After a montary panic, ng Jun cald down, his cold gaze falling on Long Yan, saying: “Long Yan, I bet you have forgotten that my disciple died at your hands, right?”
“There are many who died at my hands, maybe not a thousand, but definitely eight hundred.
Only God knows which one is your disciple.”
Long Yan really didn’t know who ng Jun’s disciple was.
“Xia Tian, his only disciple.”
Moyuan reminded him briefly.
“Xia Tian?”
Long Yan slightly furrowed his brows, rembered after a while, and revealed an expression of sudden realization: “So that trash is your disciple after all?”
Xia Tian did indeed die at his hands.
When he ca to Pill King Hall, he passed Sky Capital City and made enemies with the Xia Family.
Afterwards, Xia Yuntian passed the ssage to Pill King Hall, and Xia Tian tried to kill Long Yan but ended up being killed by him instead.
Long Yan knew that Xia Tian was a direct disciple of Dan Hall, but he never expected him to have ng Jun as his backer.
“ng Jun, Xia Tian’s death was his own fault.
He cannot bla the Junior Palace Master.
You betraying Pill King Hall is a capital cri!”
Moyuan sternly rebuked him.
“Nonsense!”
ng Jun roared, the veins on his forehead bulging: “If not for Long Yan killing people from the Xia Family in Sky Capital City, how would Xia Tian have gone to take revenge on Long Yan, and how could he have died at Long Yan’s hands?”
In fact, there was a secret unknown to anyone – Xia Tian was not just ng Jun’s direct disciple, but also ng Jun’s illegitimate son.
Years ago, ng Jun left Pill King Hall to search for a precious dicinal material.
He was severely wounded by a Demonic Beast after obtaining the material.
He barely escaped with his life and was saved by Xia Tian’s mother.
Hearing how he was well taken care of, he took advantage of her once he recovered, and thus Xia Tian was born.
After learning about this, ng Jun felt guilty and started to secretly help the Xia Family, helping them to beco the first Clan in Sky Capital City.
Later, he brought Xia Tian to Pill King Hall to train him as a key disciple.
In Pill King Hall, after Long Yan killed Xia Tian, ng Jun didn’t take action against Long Yan due to the bet with Zuo Qiuyu and out of fear from Luo Shenghe’s authority.
More importantly, ng Jun saw that Zhuge Qianzhong valued Long Yan and did not want to offend him.
Luo Shenghe had a deep vendetta against Long Yan and was more than capable of dealing with Long Yan, so there was no need for him to act.
Unexpectedly, Luo Shenghe couldn’t kill Long Yan, and now Long Yan had beco the Young Master of Pill King Hall; it was impossible for Luo Shenghe to kill Long Yan any longer.
Up until now, there was still no news about Luo Shenghe; it was highly likely that he had fallen.
ng Jun didn’t want to let Long Yan go just like that, so he leaked the ssage to the Four Major Forces, intending to use their power to get rid of Long Yan.
“ng Jun, even if you have millions of reasons, betraying Pill King Hall will only lead you to a dead end.”
Zhuge Qianzhong coldly stared at ng Jun, a powerful aura of suppression bearing down on him, almost making ng Jun kneel on the ground.
“You…
deserve to die!”
Zhuge Qianzhong followed up with a palm strike, crippling ng Jun on the spot.
“Pfft!”
ng Jun spewed a mouthful of blood and his face turned desperate.
“Let do it.”
At this mont, Long Yan stepped forward and pointed a finger at ng Jun, injecting a poisonous force into his body.
“Ahh…”
Then, a miserable scream ca from ng Jun’s mouth, causing everyone’s hair to stand on end.
Visibly, ng Jun’s flesh began to rot, and a nauseating black liquid flowed out of his body.
Seeing this, everyone present gasped, shocked by Long Yan’s brutal thod.
“This is the fate of those who betray Pill King Hall.
I do not want a second one.”
Long Yan’s cold gaze swept across the people of Pill King Hall as he spoke.
He did this to serve as a warning to others.
In a large group, there are always rebels, and ng Jun was certainly not the only traitor in Pill King Hall.
“Long Yan, you’ve fulfilled your first condition, now state your second one.”
Wu Kuangyun, Gu Yunxiao, Feng Wanli, and Leng Qianqiu frowned, feeling that they had lost face.
Long Yan’s actions seed to be a public slap in the face.
Finally, Wu Kuangyun spoke, breaking the tense atmosphere.
“The second condition is not really a condition.
The Battle Soul Stele must be activated by personally.
Even if I tell you the thod, it will be useless.”
Long Yan said.
“Long Yan, what trick are you playing?”
Gu Yunxiao asked coldly.
“Why?”
Wu Kuangyun inquired.
“The Five Emperors did not leave behind a will inside the Battle Soul Stele.
Activating the stele requires a special power, and only I possess it.”
After a slight pause, Long Yan continued, “I can help you activate the Battle Soul Stele and reveal the Earth Order Battle Skill within it without any alterations.”
“This…”
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the Four Major Forces changed.
If things were as Long Yan claid, the Earth Order Battle Skill within the Battle Soul Stele would be impossible to be solely possessed by them.
Earth Order Battle Skills were highly cherished, and no one wanted another person to know about it.
“Is he doing this on purpose?”
Zhuge Qianzhong secretly gave Long Yan a thumbs-up.
In this way, Long Yan would be able to obtain the five sets of Earth-Rank Battle Techniques no matter what, making it a sure-win business.
“Fine, we agree to your terms, but you better not be playing tricks.”
After weighing their options, Wu Kuangyun, Gu Yunxiao, Feng Wanli, and Leng Qianqiu eventually chose to accept this thod.
They didn’t have any better choices.
Although this would benefit Long Yan with the Earth Order Battle Skills, they could also obtain them, so it was not a loss.
It was just hard for them to swallow their pride.
“I always keep my word.”
Long Yan smiled slightly and said, “Since you all have agreed, I will state my second condition.”
He deliberately paused before continuing, “It’s extrely difficult for to cultivate that kind of power, and activating the Battle Soul Stele consus a lot of it.
I can only activate two steles consecutively at most.
Therefore, I cannot activate all four steles at once; I must do it in two separate attempts.
You can’t force , and you must give enough ti to recover my strength.”
“What kind of condition is this?”
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Long Yan with strange gazes.
The condition put forth by Long Yan wasn’t really a condition at all; it was just common sense.
