Chapter 2439: Hypocrisy (2/2)

The moment you agreed to protect Fu Yunjie, the two of us were destined to clash.

Hearing that the agreement was made, Wu Ge couldn’t help but step in. “Your Highness, this….”

Li Chen stopped him immediately. “Grand Hall Master Wu, you heard it yourself. Junior Brother Huang agreed to the terms. I had nothing to do with this. If my master or the other Primal Ancestors ask, please be my witness and state everything that happened truthfully.”

As long as the people he sent defeated Huang Xiaolong, the grandmist holy spiritual aura would belong to him. That was something Huang Xiaolong had agreed to and even if the Primal Ancestors knew about it, they wouldn’t be shameless enough to ask him to return it to Huang Xiaolong.

Hall Master Yuan Shuai, who was in charge of the various branches, stood up and laughed. “Of course, Your Highness, please rest assured that even if the four Primal Ancestors ask about this, I will definitely speak the truth!”

The two other hall masters who stood on Li Chen’s side stepped up to agree instantly.

A smile appeared on Li Chen’s face, and he stood up to address everyone present. “Junior Brother Huang probably has to prepare for the challenge. Let’s call it a day and hope that he lasts for more than a day in the arena!”

Huang Xiaolong got up from his seat with an expressionless face. “That’s not something you need to worry about. Just prepare to face the consequence.”

“Sure!” Li Chen was full of smiles as he led the others away.

Wu Ge slowly got to his feet as well, but he merely shook his head slowly before leaving the main hall. The various hall masters and everyone under him followed behind him.

After watching Li Chen’s delighted expression when he left, Chen Zhi turned to speak to Huang Xiaolong, “Your Highness, if Li Chen and the others learn about your holy soul, they will probably bawl their eyes out and cry for their mothers….”

Yu Ming couldn’t help but smirk. “Wait till they lick His Highness’ boots after the challenge ends. You’ll know what a crying beast looks like.”

The several True Saints roared with laughter instantly.

Huang Xiaolong couldn’t hold back his laughter when he thought about it. “We shall enter the market to purchase origin herbs to refine level ten origin spiritual pills soon.” Previously, Chen Zhi and the others had refined several batches of level ten origin spiritual pills. However, he was about to run out.

“Yes, Your Highness.”

Soon, Huang Xiaolong led the others towards the market of the Mirage Pavilion.

As he left the Holy Heavens branch to shop for origin herbs, the main hall of the Beast Tamer Holy Gate was bustling with activity. A row of disciples stood at attention in the main hall.

The entire group consisted of geniuses in the Third Tribulation half-True Saint Realm.

There was a purple haired youngster standing at the very front, right below Shen Jiewen.

“Yunfeng, you shall be the first disciple we send up to challenge that brat!” Shen Jiewen’s eyes landed on the purple haired youngster, and he continued, “When you defeat Huang Xiaolong, I will promote you to be my direct disciple!”

Sui Yunfeng fell to his knees as he thanked Shen Jiewen. “Patriarch, please rest assured. I will not disappoint you!”

Shen Jiewen nodded his head and pardoned Sui Yunfeng. He had absolute confidence in the youngster’s strength.

“Patriarch, when Sui Yunfeng enters the arena, do we…?” One of the hall masters slid a finger across his throat.

A light flashed through Shen Jiewen’s eyes, but he decided against it. “Even though the challenge is one of life and death, the four Primal Ancestors will definitely rage if we kill Huang Xiaolong.” Turning to Sui Yunfeng, he continued, “Do whatever you want as long as he lives.”

‘Yes, Patriarch!”
