Chapter 2277: The Jiang Family’s Birthday Banquet (1/2)

Feng Tianyu looked even more awkward at Huang Xiaolong’s meaningful chuckle and hastened to explain, “I am telling the truth. I only accepted her as a disciple based on her potential. Although she does not have a complete dao saint godhead, saint bloodline, or saint physique, her godhead was infinitely close to a saint godhead. It’s the Raging Lightning Godhead! Both her divine bloodline and divine physique are as good as the Raging Lightning Godhead.”

Huang Xiaolong was genuinely a little surprised.

Raging Lightning Godhead? In that case, that female disciple’s talent was indeed quite good.

In the Holy World, there were some powerful godheads that were known as second-to-saint godheads. Amongst them was the Raging Lightning Godhead, and it was extremely suited to cultivate Feng Tianyu’s 33 Heavens Race’s technique.

“In that case, we’ll head over to the Jiang Family to pick her up.” Huang Xiaolong answered seriously.

Since he had come across this matter, he couldn’t avoid interfering.

“That, Brother Huang, the Jiang Family is the most powerful family in the Central Holy Dynasty, and the Chen Family can’t even begin to compare. Furthermore, during this time, various sect and family forces are arriving in droves to participate in the Jiang Family’s forefather’s birthday banquet. There are many experts gathering at the Jiang Family, why don’t we…?” Hearing what Huang Xiaolong said, Feng Tianyu was once again struck by uncertainty and hesitation.

The Jiang Family’s power made him hesitate and anxious. Feng Tianyu feared they might fail to rescue his beloved disciple and drag Huang Xiaolong into danger.

Huang Xiaolong smiled nonchalantly as he reassured, “It’ll be fine, I’ve been thinking of paying the Jiang Family a visit.”

Huh? Feng Tianyu was dazed.

Just as Huang Xiaolong decided to head to the Jiang Family with Feng Tianyu, he saw the several hundred people, who were enslaved by the Chen Family together with Feng Tianyu, walking out cautiously. Their faces beamed when they spotted Huang Xiaolong, and all of them knelt towards Huang Xiaolong in unison and pleaded, “Lord Benefactor, please take us away from here!”

“Yes ah, Lord Benefactor, please, lend us a helping hand and take us away from here too, we are willing to serve you, even as a coolie. Please, take us away!”

Several hundred slaves pleaded woefully.

Some of them even cried.

They did not want to be enslaved by the Chen Family anymore, refining pills day in day out until they died of exhaustion.

But if Huang Xiaolong was unwilling to take them away, they were absolutely certain that they wouldn't make it out of the Central Holy Dynasty once they escaped on their own from the Chen Family. If they were caught back by the Chen Family, their lives would be more miserable.

Looking at several hundred slaves begging on their knees, Huang Xiaolong subconsciously frowned.

“Brother Tianyu, I beg you. Please help us persuade your friend, this Lord Benefactor, to save us. If we continue to stay here, we’re dead for certain. Brother Tianyu, for the sake of our time we’ve known each other, please, please, help us!” One of the slaves suddenly turned and begged Feng Tianyu.

During the time Feng Tianyu was enslaved, the two of them had gotten along quite well, and he had taken care of Feng Tianyu. This put Feng Tianyu in an awkward position.

Feng Tianyu knew very well that if Huang Xiaolong brought these Chen Family’s slaves with him, they would be a burden for Huang Xiaolong in the end. It was not nice to impose that on Huang Xiaolong.

“Alright.” Huang Xiaolong agreed after pondering the matter for a while.

At the moment, his Myriad Dragon Peak was still considered deserted, there was only him and Zhang Wenyue. He needed to add some people, and it had been his plan all along to expand his own force at the Blue Sea. These Chen Family’s slaves would help with the expansion of his own force to a certain degree.

Most of these Chen Family’s slaves were half-step Venerables, and they were about the same strength as Feng Tianyu, close to advancing to Venerable Realm. As long as he had sufficient pills to support them, many of them could take that step and break through to the Venerable Realm.

After seeing Huang Xiaolong’s nod in agreement to take them away from the Chen Family, the five to six hundred slaves were overjoyed. They kowtowed nonstop to Huang Xiaolong in gratitude.

Huang Xiaolong subsequently selected two peak half-step Venerables as the head slaves of these several hundred Chen Family’s slaves. After that he temporarily placed them at a location while he made a trip to the Jiang Family with Feng Tianyu to pick up Feng Tianyu’s female disciple. When all were done, everyone would leave the Central Holy Dynasty together.
