Chapter 399 Please Prove You Are Long Aotian
A Long was completely dumbfounded.
Scared to death, he realized that his group were the traitors!
His ntal resilience was poor, and at this mont, he stood at the very back, trembling.
A Yin’s face was ashen: "Whatever happens, happens. I can’t figure this out anymore. Living is aningless."
A Xiao had already lost himself in thought: What is Shi Yin doing? Is she enjoying happiness with Lu Chengwen? I’m probably going to die... will she cry for ? No, don’t cry. This is my fate, that’s all.
A Hu turned back to look at his brothers, thinking: Damn it, not a single one of them can be relied on at a crucial mont.
Summoning all his courage, A Hu took a step forward, clasped his fists, and said, "Your Majesty the Tianwang! I have sothing to say!"
"Speak."
"We were the first to arrive in Xuecheng, but the Young Master and Lu Chengwen kept swapping identities, and our communication system does not allow full transparency. Moreover, even if it were transparent, it would be useless! They can even change their faces—how could we possibly recognize them?"
"The five of us discussed and deduced together, yet no matter how we analyzed it, we were always wrong. In this regard, even the Young Master himself holds so responsibility!"
Piaoqi Tianwang beca furious: "So you’re saying you feel wronged!?"
A Hu suddenly found it hard to breathe, as a powerful spiritual force enveloped him. He struggled to speak:
"So many waves of brothers ca and went, each group identifying the wrong person, again and again. Does that an every single subordinate in our organization is a fool or an idiot? The Young Master is overly suspicious, vengeful, narrow-minded, and changes his face at will... So many brothers have fallen because of him! He bears undeniable responsibility!"
"And what about you!?"
Piaoqi Tianwang roared, "Do you take no responsibility at all!?"
A Hu knelt on the ground, clutching his throat: "If the Young Master had even a fraction of Your Majesty’s intelligence and magnanimity, we definitely wouldn’t have made a mistake!"
Piaoqi Tianwang snorted and withdrew his spiritual force.
"A re brat, and yet everyone claims he was so formidable in the Southern Frontier, full of promise. But now, he turns out to be just another diocre nobody."
A Hu regained so composure: "Your Majesty, Lu Chengwen is rely a middle-ranking figure in the Four Gates—not even in the Upper Four Gates. Taking his life would be as easy as crushing an ant. But he controls the biggest project in Xuecheng, with assets worth hundreds of billions! To take them over properly, we must employ so tactics."
"Hmm, continue."
"In our encounters with the Young Master, all we did was wear each other down internally. Ask A Yin—he’s the most loyal of us all!"
A Yin clenched his teeth: "No matter what, I can die! I will never swear loyalty to Long Aotian again! He’s a total idiot! Kill if you want, but I’ll say it even if you do. Go ahead, I’m not afraid!"
The sheer madness in A Yin’s expression—the grief, the despair, the hysteria—
Even Piaoqi Tianwang was sowhat moved by it.
He frowned slightly and sighed. "In this matter, you’ve suffered grievances as well."
Dangkou and Cheqi were both dumbfounded. What? That worked!?
Piaoqi Tianwang continued, "However, rits are rits, and faults are faults! You’ve lost hundreds of billions, gravely injured the Young Master, and allowed Lu Chengwen to grow stronger, becoming even more arrogant and domineering!"
Piaoqi Tianwang swept his gaze over them. "Complete this mission properly, then get the hell back to headquarters. Whether you live or die will be up to fate."
Everyone responded in unison: "Yes!"
Cheqi Tianwang thought for a mont. "Your Majesty! The five from Fubo cannot be trusted!"
"Hmm?"
Cheqi Tianwang said, "They are traitors! They’ve already sided with Lu Chengwen!"
Fubo Tianwang roared, "You slanderous bastard!"
"I’m slandering you!? I’m slandering you!?" Cheqi Tianwang shouted. "I went after Lu Chengwen to settle the score and capture him alive, but you and that group of traitors from the Xuecheng branch—ten of you! Ten of you ganged up on alone! What, did you forget!?"
A Hu interjected, "Oh? If we’re talking about that, then you also fought the Young Master! You and ten of us together—we all kicked the Young Master around in a circle. What, did you forget!?"
"That’s not the sa thing!"
"Why not?" A Hu retorted. "Are you saying that beating the Young Master doesn’t count as betrayal, but beating you does? Are you more important than the Young Master?"
"I fought the Young Master because he changed his face—I didn’t recognize him!"
"And we fought you because the Young Master changed his face! He turned into Lu Chengwen and ordered us to beat you to death! Could we dare to disobey?"
Cheqi Tianwang gritted his teeth. "You five bastards, I’m going to cripple you today!"
A Hu roared back, "Before that, we fought alongside you and kicked Lu Chengwen in a circle—"
Then he turned to Piaoqi Tianwang and explained, "Which is to say, the Young Master."
"After successfully beating him, we should have been credited for our achievent. But how did you treat us? You used Eight Directions Wandering Dragon and nearly killed all five of us! Who else were we supposed to fight? You? We had every reason to suspect you were the real traitor!"
"I’m the traitor!? I’M THE TRAITOR!?" Cheqi Tianwang was dumbfounded.
A Hu pointed at him and said to Piaoqi Tianwang, "He admitted it."
"Admitted your ass!" Cheqi Tianwang roared. "That was an order from Piaoqi Big Brother and the Strategist—to eliminate you all after the mission!"
Dangkou was stunned. "Your Majesty... this..."
Piaoqi Tianwang’s expression darkened. "Cheqi, explain yourself. When did I ever give such an order? Hmm?"
Piaoqi Tianwang glared at him, and Cheqi froze.
Right. This was sothing that shouldn’t be said.
But if he didn’t say anything, he would be seen as a traitor!
"Anyway! I am not a traitor! I was fighting Lu Chengwen!"
A Hu smirked. "Which is to say, the Young Master."
"I captured Lu Chengwen alive and then followed the gang’s rules to deal with them!"
"You captured Lu Chengwen, and yet you still had to deal with us? Wouldn’t headquarters have handled us anyway? Did you need to make yourself look important?"
Piaoqi Tianwang felt his head spinning from all this chaos.
What’s with these groups of people? It seems like no one gets along with anyone.
"Shut the hell up! You’ll have your chance to explain later. From now on, listen to my orders. First, follow to et Shaozhu, then we capture Lu Chengwen alive and force him to hand over the money. Damn it, our grand organization has always bullied others, and no one dares to bully us!"
Ahu hid at the back of the group and quietly sent a ssage to Lu Chengwen.
"The new Tianwang has arrived in Xuecheng, Tiansin. Temporarily retreat."
...
Lu Chengwen received the ssage, and his heart sank.
What the hell!?
Tiansin is here too!? I haven’t even made it past the upper four gates yet!
No way, no way, I can’t handle this. And Hua Xuening isn’t a match for them either!
Didn’t my Shixiong already step up?
Lu Chengwen smacked his forehead. "Find Shifu!"
He got up and started packing his things. "Xuening, get ready to set off. Up the mountain!"
"To see Shifu? Then I’ll buy so wine and roast chicken."
...
Small villa.
Piaoqi Tianwang stood at the door. "Beiguo Grand Organization, Piaoqi Tianwang, requesting an audience with Shaozhu!"
No response!?
Piaoqi Tianwang spoke again. "Beiguo Grand Organization, Piaoqi Tianwang, requesting an audience with Shaozhu!"
At that mont, a figure swiftly leaped onto the rooftop, bow drawn and ready for battle!
From the window, two graceful figures flew out, encircling from both sides.
Long Aotian kicked open the door. "Damn it! This is too much! You dare attack my ho!? Today, I’ll fight you all!"
Piaoqi Tianwang was shocked. "Shaozhu, don’t attack! I’m from the grand organization!"
"I know! A lot of people, huh? Both familiar and unfamiliar faces are here! Damn it, no one is leaving today until we settle this! Luo Shiyin, don’t hold back! Control one first to balance our combat power! Zhuge Xiaohua, pick your shots wisely and reduce their numbers quickly! Qi ishao, stay close to and be ready to replenish my energy! If I don’t beat the crap out of you today, I’m not Long Aotian!"
"Hey, hey, hey!" Piaoqi Tianwang shouted. "Shaozhu, we’re on the sa side!"
"Sa side, my ass! Which one of you hasn’t beaten up before!? You even specifically target my blind spots! All of you are bastards! Either leave, or I’ll start fighting! Wang Ba Zhi Qi, activate!"
Piaoqi Tianwang thought, no wonder everyone beats him up.
Can you even tell good from bad? I said we’re on the sa side, and before I can finish my sentence, you’re ready to fight!
Seeing Long Aotian, everyone felt uneasy.
Piaoqi Tianwang shouted. "No one move! No one! Shaozhu, we’ve co to see you! I’m Piaoqi Tianwang, ranked third among the four Tianwang. Shaozhu, please don’t be rash!"
Long Aotian roared. "How do I know if you’re human or a ghost!?"
Ayin sneered. "See that? This is exactly how it is. Every ti, he can’t tell good from bad. Is that our fault?"
Piaoqi Tianwang snapped. "Shut up!"
Long Aotian pointed at Ayin. "You again, you bastard! If I don’t kill you today, I swear I’m not human!"
Ahu shouted. "Prove that you’re Long Aotian first!"
Long Aotian’s eyes widened. "Damn it, you traitor! You’re the most active troublemaker here! I’ll kill you first!"
Ahu said. "Are you Long Aotian or not!?"
Long Aotian bellowed. "I’m your grandpa!"
Ahu turned around. "Tianwang, he’s not Long Aotian. As far as I know, my grandpa’s na isn’t Long Aotian!"
Piaoqi Tianwang roared. "Roar—!"
A bird darted into the forest, its cry silenced by his roar.
This thunderous shout radiated the authority of Tiansin, shocking everyone.
Piaoqi Tianwang’s expression darkened as he turned to his subordinates. They imdiately lowered their heads, not daring to et his gaze.
He then turned to Long Aotian with a stern expression. Long Aotian’s face also paled slightly, clearly intimidated by Tiansin’s power.
After displaying his strength, Piaoqi Tianwang cupped his fists and spoke in a low voice. "Beiguo Grand Organization Headquarters, Piaoqi Tianwang, along with my subordinates, greet Shaozhu."
Long Aotian’s mouth twitched as he regained his authoritative deanor. "So, you’re not here to fight?"
Piaoqi Tianwang smiled slightly. "Of course not. I’m here to help ease Shaozhu’s worries and share your burdens. This is Junshi’s order."
Long Aotian scratched his chin. "Finally, soone recognizes the mont they walk in. Feels kinda weird."
Piaoqi Tianwang said. "There were many misunderstandings before. I ask for Shaozhu’s forgiveness."
Long Aotian looked at Piaoqi Tianwang. His words were polite, but his tone, gaze, and expression were all domineering.
This is a threat!
This bastard is trying to intimidate !
Long Aotian gritted his teeth. "Handle Lu Chengwen, get my money back, then co talk to !"
Piaoqi Tianwang narrowed his eyes.
This is a declaration of dominance!
This is setting up the hierarchy between us!
This is telling that even if I’m a part of Tiansin, I’m still just a subordinate to him!
Piaoqi Tianwang took a deep breath and reluctantly said, "Understood."
He thought: No wonder everyone beats him up. He totally deserves it!
Long Aotian waved his hand. "Go! Get it done first, then report back to !"
At that mont, Hengha Erjiang rushed over and kneeled on one knee. "Reporting to Tianwang, Shaozhu, Lu Chengwen just drove straight toward Qixingfeng in a hurry. He probably got wind of sothing!"
Piaoqi Tianwang suddenly turned around and scanned the crowd.
There’s a traitor among us!
