Chapter 1159: 1159

Having only tied with Gu Yang, Gao Xianyang’s prestige dropped to an all-time low . As for the Dragonblood Legion, its position in the hearts of the Xuantian Dao Sect’s disciples rose to an all-time high .

This battle had allowed them to show that the Dragonblood Legion didn’t just have an unrivaled leader, but it also had a group of terrifying monsters . No member of the Dragonblood Legion was ordinary .

Another few days pa.s.sed calmly . Gao Xianyang’s group didn’t leave . They simply set up camp outside Xuantian City, maintaining a certain distance from everyone else .

Long Chen didn’t bother with Gao Xianyang . He didn’t ask what they were doing and simply gave them the cold shoulder .

In the end, Gao Xianyang couldn’t bear it any longer and decided to lower his head . He sent Fan Song to report what they had done during this time .

“Long Chen, this is the route we took during the past few days in the Martial Heaven Sea-Ring . I heard you were attacked by the Heaven Suppressing Magic Sect’s disciples, but I am willing to use my head to guarantee that this matter has nothing to do with us . ” Fan Song looked at Long Chen with a complicated expression .

Back when Long Chen had joined the Xuantian Dao Sect, they hadn’t placed him in their eyes . They had employed various means to suppress his growth, but now the two of them were not even close to the same level . Long Chen was at a height he could only look up to .

“I know . The Heaven Suppressing Magic Sect placed markers on the flying boats hundreds of years ago . I don’t suspect you,” said Long Chen .

He had once suspected them, but he kept feeling like that wasn’t likely . If Gao Xianyang did this, then he couldn’t comprehend his motives .

This didn’t have the slightest benefit to Gao Xianyang . The Heaven Suppressing Magic Sect cultivated magical arts; they wouldn’t accept him as a disciple . Doing this would just be destroying his own path .

Even if Gao Xianyang were to betray the Xuantian Dao Sect, two conditions needed to be met: first, there had to be enough enticement, and second, he had to be guaranteed that he would be protected from the sect’s wrath . The Heaven Suppressing Magic Sect was unable to offer him these two things .

If he betrayed the Xuantian Dao Sect, then no matter how many benefits he got from it, he would be chased down by the Xuantian Dao Sect . No matter how great the benefits, he wouldn’t have a life to enjoy them . So Long Chen had refused to believe that Gao Xianyang had sold them out .

Later, Guo Ran had investigated the flying boats, and in an extremely hidden part of its core, he had found a certain addition .

That addition had allowed the Heaven Suppressing Magic Sect to tell how many people were on that particular flying boat and its position . That was what had resulted in their accurate sneak attack .

Su Mo and Mu Qingxuan had been leading the largest group, and they weren’t the Heaven Suppressing Magic Sect’s ultimate goal, so they had instead chosen to attack the Ten Thousand Insect Guild, Heaven Female Alliance, and Dragonblood Legion .

Afterward, Long Chen couldn’t help sighing emotionally . A thousand calculations could still end up off . The slightest hole resulted in Heaven Suppressing Magic Sect’s plans going out of control .

Thereafter, Long Chen had investigated all of Xuantian City . Anything that wasn’t necessary had been tossed out into the sea by Cloud, and only then did he feel more at ease .

“Gao Xianyang sent me to say that the beast tide is about to erupt . As fellow members of the Xuantian Dao Sect, we should all work together…” probed Fan Song .

“He’s worried about there being no portion for him when the contributions of each person are evaluated . ” Long Chen shook his head .

“Cough, well, we’re all fellow disciples and occasional fighting is normal . But at a critical time, we should be united,” said Fan Song . He felt very awkward

“Yes, that is correct . If he is obedient and listens to directions, I won’t toss him out . But if he wants to fight against me over leaders.h.i.+p, I’ll kick him out immediately . If he causes any trouble at a critical time, I will kill him,” said Long Chen coldly .

“Yes, I will tell him what you said . ” Fan Song’s heart shook . Long Chen was no longer his old self . If he wanted to kill Gao Xianyang, then with that many experts under his command, not even ten lives would be enough .

“Other than that, did you sense anything suspicious while you were out hunting?” Long Chen looked Fan Song in the eye .

“No . ” Fan Song shook his head .

“Then you can go . ” Long Chen nodded and smiled .

Fan Song had only just gotten up from a bow and turned to leave when Long Chen added, “When you go back, you should consider whether your loyalties lie with Gao Xianyang, the Law Enforcement Hall, or the Xuantian Dao Sect . ”

Fan Song shook slightly before he left .

The next day, Fan Song returned and told him that Gao Xianyang had agreed to Long Chen’s requests . He would listen to his orders .

Long Chen smiled . He seemed to understand something, but he didn’t say anything .

“You can decide some things after you think them through . ” Long Chen looked at Fan Song, who was simply standing there without moving, seeming to be struggling with himself .

Fan Song clenched his teeth . He finally said, “While we were out at sea, Gao Xianyang went deep into the sea on his own to investigate the movements of the sea demons . He was once gone for a day and night . ”

Long Chen nodded . “Good . I’m glad you still know you are a disciple of the Xuantian Dao Sect . Go, and be careful . ”
