Chapter 2627: Ran Away? (2/2)
An expert from the Chen Luo Sect laughed, “This matter is of great importance. It doesn’t matter if Huang Xiaolong refuses to give a reply or not. After all, he’s not the type to run away from a challenge.”
Chen Muguang was enraged when he heard what the man said. “Aren’t you always standing on Huang Xiaolong’s side?! He might be a human, but he’s also the young patriarch of the Purple Spider Race! Even if he gains power in the future, he won’t lift a finger to help us!”
“I’ve seen a lot of people like Huang Xiaolong. He’s a white-eyed wolf. When he gains power in the future, he might even kill all of us for standing against him!”
Chen Mugaung reprimanded.
The experts from the Chen Luo Sect frowned.
“Help me arrange a meeting with Young Master Yuan Qianxing,” Chen Muguang said.
The faces of those sitting in the hall changed immediately.
“Young Sect Master, this…,” someone quickly spoke up. “Now that Huang Xiaolong and Yuan Qianxing are fighting amongst themselves, if our sect pays a visit to Yuan Qianxing, the members of the human race will definitely look down on us!”
“That’s right, Young Sect Master, Yuan Qianxing belongs to the alien race. They regard us as slaves, and if we go…,” several other people voiced their concerns.
Chen Muguang berated, “What do you guys know?! Yuan Qianxing is bound to succeed! It’s a matter of time before Huang Xiaolong is killed! Now is the best time for us to surrender to Young Master Yuan Qianxing and show our loyalty to him! When he becomes the Mansion Master, we will be rewarded heavily!”
“With his support, our Chen Luo Sect will rise through the ranks!”
Chen Muguang envisioned the future.
“Young Sect Master, this matter is of great importance. We should report this to the Sect Master and allow him to make the decision,” several people tried to persuade their delusional young sect master.
“My father has always been indecisive. That's the reason our Chen Luo Sect is in the dumps right now! There’s no need to make a report to him! I can make this decision for our sect!” Chen Muguang said firmly.
“Enough! All of you are here to carry out my orders. Do as you’re told!”
In fact, Chen Muguang had already prepared a giant gift for Yuan Qianxing. All he had to do was to present it.
As for Huang Xiaolong, he left the Otherworldly Mansion that very night. He wanted to break through to the Third Heaven True Saint Realm in peace.
Of course, before he left, he informed Long Shengtian in hopes that the Deputy Mansion Master would be able to delay the challenge for as long as he could.
“What? Huang Xiaolong is missing?!” Not long after Huang Xiaolong left, Yuan Qianxing received the news.
“Seal off the Otherworldly Mansion! We can’t let him escape!” Yuan Qianxing roared in anger.
“What? Huang Xiaolong ran away?! Is he really that afraid to die?!”
“This is impossible! How can he possibly run away!?”
“It’s true! Many disciples went to pay him a visit, but the entire peak has been sealed off. No one knows where Huang Xiaolong went, and I heard that Long Shengtian gave the order to seal off the Otherworldly Mansion. What a loser! To think that I used to admire a coward like that!”
“Actually, you can’t blame him. You can’t expect him to sit there and wait for Yuan Qianxing to kill him. I would have also escaped right away if I were in his shoes because Yuan Qianxing would have killed me as soon as he ascended to his position! At that time, there would be nowhere left for me to go!”
Discussions filled the mansion in an instant, but without a doubt, all of them were mocking Huang Xiaolong for being a coward.
Some even demanded for the upper echelons of the Otherworldly Mansion to remove Huang Xiaolong’s qualification as a mansion master candidate!
