Supreme Dragon Lord

Chapter 428: Choice!

Liang Tianhao, along with a large group of Baiyue Sect disciples, stormed into Dragon Gate in a flurry.

A disciple of the Baiyue Sect shouted coldly, "You people of Dragon Gate have some nerve, daring to provoke our Baiyue Sect like this. It seems you won’t learn your lesson until we put you in your place!"

Hearing this, the members of Dragon Gate stood up one after another, facing them without a hint of fear.

Qi Yuanchen snorted. "It was your Baiyue Sect that insisted on provoking us first. You can’t blame us for this!"

"You people of Dragon Gate really have guts!" At that moment, an indifferent voice came from behind the Baiyue Sect members.

The crowd of disciples promptly parted, clearing a path through their midst. With broad shoulders and a stout build, Liang Tianhao strode toward them with his head held high. From the moment he appeared, he exuded an overwhelming and oppressive aura.

Upon seeing them arrive, the faces of Zhang Cangsong and the others lit up with elation.

They quickly cried out, "Senior Brother Liang, save us..."

Hearing this, Liang Tianhao’s gaze swept in their direction. When he saw their disheveled states, particularly the sticky substance smeared all over the faces of Zhang Cangsong and Han Zongwei, his brows knitted together tightly, and his expression turned grim.

Liang Tianhao shifted his gaze back to Long Chen and the others, speaking coldly, "Impressive. No one has ever dared to be so bold with our Baiyue Sect’s members. Do you have any idea what this means?"

Long Chen smiled faintly. "It means Dragon Gate is the first to trample the Baiyue Sect underfoot."

Upon hearing this, the Baiyue Sect members’ faces twisted with anger. They all hurled insults at the Dragon Gate members.

"You bastards!"

"How insolent!"

A barrage of curses followed.

Liang Tianhao, however, just laughed heartily before fixing his gaze intently on Long Chen. "Interesting. Boy, you’ve successfully angered me!

"I’ll give you two choices. The first is to obediently release our Baiyue Sect disciples and dissolve Dragon Gate on the spot. Afterward, your group will kneel before our Baiyue Sect’s estate for three days and three nights. If you do this, we will let bygones be bygones and even consider accepting you into the Baiyue Sect.

"This way, not only will you avoid any physical suffering, but you’ll also have the chance to join the Baiyue Sect and serve us.

"The second choice is for us to cripple all of you. Then, we’ll heal you, only to cripple you again. We’ll torment you repeatedly, ensuring you pay the proper price for your actions!"

Saying this, Liang Tianhao sneered and continued, "Between these two choices, anyone with a brain knows to pick the first. Boy, this is your last chance. You’d better weigh it carefully."

The Baiyue Sect members all revealed cold smiles, convinced that the people of Dragon Gate would choose the first option without hesitation.

Seeing Liang Tianhao’s supremely domineering demeanor, the bound Zhang Cangsong and his cohorts also cracked a smile.

In his view, Long Chen and the others would definitely choose the first option. If so, they’d merely have to kneel in front of the Baiyue Sect’s estate for three days and three nights. That would be getting off easy. However, if they really did join the Baiyue Sect, he could make their lives difficult forever.

Thinking this, Zhang Cangsong felt somewhat appeased.

But what Long Chen said next left every member of the Baiyue Sect utterly stunned.

"I think you’ve got it wrong," Long Chen said indifferently. "I didn’t call you here for a show of force. I called you here to settle the accounts!"

Liang Tianhao and the others were taken aback. They exchanged shocked glances.

Settle accounts? What accounts could this guy possibly have to settle with the Baiyue Sect?!

"What do you mean?" Liang Tianhao’s face was grim as he asked coolly.

Long Chen responded coldly, "They have already confessed everything the Baiyue Sect has done to Dragon Gate.

"The problems with our last batch of Elixir Pills were entirely because your Baiyue Sect used despicable, underhanded methods.

"And now, your members come strutting into Dragon Gate, starting a fight and injuring our people.

"Adding these two incidents together, we have quite a bit to settle."

The Baiyue Sect members shouted angrily at Long Chen.

"Who do you think you are?!"

"How dare you speak to our Senior Brother Liang like that! You’re courting death!"

Their insults continued to fly.

Facing their tirade, Long Chen took a step forward. An immensely powerful pressure instantly burst from him, sweeping over the Baiyue Sect members.

Suddenly, they all felt a heavy weight pressing down on them, and their expressions turned grave.

Seeing this, Liang Tianhao’s brow furrowed into deep lines. In the next second, an oppressive force also exploded from him, directly blocking the pressure Long Chen had released.

His sinister eyes fixed on Long Chen as he spoke coldly, "Kid, it seems you’d rather do this the hard way.

"I kindly offered you a good choice, yet you refuse it. You’re hell-bent on seeking death, is that it?

"Very well! Very well!" Liang Tianhao nodded grimly, his eyes narrowing to slits. "Don’t say I didn’t give you a chance. You brought this on yourself!"

Long Chen said calmly, "I just need to get justice for Dragon Gate.

"Dragon Gate is not a place where any Tom, Dick, or Harry can come and stir up trouble!"

"If that’s how it is, then there’s nothing more to say!" A chill emanated from Liang Tianhao, causing the surrounding temperature to drop several degrees.

"Boy, I’ve long heard that you are very strong and have repeatedly defeated members of my Baiyue Sect.

"Today, I shall test your skills myself.

"Let’s see just how capable you really are, to dare to be so arrogant in my presence!"

"Oh?" Wholly unafraid, Long Chen smiled faintly. "If you want to fight, then make your move. I’m waiting."

"You ignorant fool," Liang Tianhao said coldly. "Do you think I’m like those other mediocrities?

"Rest assured, you will soon pay a painful price for your blind confidence!

"Because I am about to personally tear you into fragments!"

As his words fell, Liang Tianhao’s aura violently erupted. A terrifying pressure suddenly filled the area, so immense that the very air seemed to solidify.
