Despite saying that, he still kept his promise and gave Lin Jinglong an identity token, allowing him to infuse his soul into it.
From now on, Lin Jinglong will be able to form a bond with the Heavenly Dragon Sect.
He was not a formal outer disciple.
After taking the token, Lin Jinglong glanced at Chen Qi and thought to himself that letting this guy live was a waste of the resources of Heaven.
Whether it's the upper realm or the lower realm.
Resources are finite.
This kind of person is a waste of his life; he should be eliminated sooner or later.
However, this time, things have begun to develop in the direction he planned, and Tianxiao's identity has obviously become different from before.
Only a fool like Chen Qi thought he could directly seize the Heavenly Dao Core controlled by Tianxiao, but Chen Mingde did not think that way.
"Father, why haven't we made a move yet? Even if this person has obtained the Heavenly Dao Core, he's still no match for you or me. Let's join forces and take him down!"
"shut up!"
Chen Mingde reprimanded him coldly.
Chen Qi was completely baffled. Why did Chen Mingde, who had previously threatened to take action, suddenly change his attitude this time?
Chen Mingde transmitted his voice and said, "When will you finally use your brain? Our purpose in descending to the lower realm this time is to control the core of the Heavenly Dao and help our Heavenly Dragon Sect completely gain dominance among the five major sects."
"But this is not just a matter for us elders. You true disciples, and even outer disciples, also need to put in the effort."
"If we can't ensure that our disciples below benefit, and Tianxiao takes the Heavenly Dao Core only to be killed by us in the blink of an eye, how can we possibly get anything done in the future?"
Chen Qi finally realized what was happening.
His initial elation turned into a gloomy expression.
"So, does that mean we can't take action against Tianxiao? If we do, we'll be breaking the hearts of those lowly people?"
"That's natural, so we'll have to wait and see."
Chen Mingde suddenly changed his attitude.
He smiled and said to Tianxiao, "I remember when you first came in, our Chen family provided you with a lot of help, didn't we?"
"so what?"
Tianxiao never expected things to develop exactly as Lin Jinglong had predicted. Not only did Chen Mingde not make a move, but his tone even had a hint of flattery.
"Even if you can cultivate to your current level, our Chen family has actually provided you with a lot of resources. I only have one request now: if you are grateful, then hand over the power of the Heavenly Dao Core to us for a transaction."
"You'll definitely get your share of the benefits, but if you don't make the deal, don't blame me for being impolite!"
Chen Mingde's last words were spoken telepathically.
This kind of thing must not be heard by anyone else present.
But looking at his expression, Lin Jinglong knew what Chen Mingde was thinking; he still wanted to seize the core of the Heavenly Dao.
However, they dared not take a hard line.
The past has been set aside; the current issue is whether Tianxiao is willing to hand over the core of the Heavenly Dao.
But in reality, it doesn't matter whether he's willing to hand it over or not, since the thing itself doesn't belong to him.
Tianxiao also realized what was happening.
He looked at Chen Mingde with a mocking expression and said helplessly, "Elder Chen, I never expected you to be such a shameless person. You wanted to kill me before, and now you want to trade the Heavenly Dao Core with me."
"If I don't agree, you won't try to kill me again, will you?"
"But if this happens, which disciple of the Heavenly Dragon Sect will dare to help the sect seize opportunities in the future? After all, the opportunities they worked so hard to obtain are about to be taken away by the elders!"
"you……"
Hearing Tianxiao's words that struck at the heart, Chen Mingde's expression turned ashen.
Other people nearby continued to point and whisper.
"Now I finally understand why Tianxiao dared to confront Elder Chen, and even fought with him before. He just thinks he's incredibly strong!"
"That's a fragment of the Heavenly Dao Core! This guy's luck is incredible! After we descended to the lower realm, we rushed all the way to Thousand Star City, and we still hadn't found the Heavenly Dao Record, but he had already found a Heavenly Dao Core!"
"It is said that the Heavenly Dao Core is the Kyoto Dragon Vein. It's so obvious. Many people had previously speculated that there was a Heavenly Dao Core there, but no one expected that Tianxiao would benefit from it."
"I wonder what the identities of those people from the lower realm are. They don't seem very strong, but they show no respect for the Heavenly Dragon Sect at all."
The voices of various factions reached Chen Mingde's ears.
Both father and son felt extremely ashamed this time; they had never expected things to turn out this way.
As a result, it's no longer possible to kill Tianxiao.
Instead, they are unable to trade with Tianxiao.
After all, they had already offended the person to the core.
What reason would Tianxiao have to cooperate with them?
Just when both father and son felt incredibly...
Suddenly another figure appeared, seemingly having learned of what was happening here through his subordinates, especially the news about the core of the Heavenly Dao.
He was an elder in white robes, who looked kind and gentle.
After he arrived, he showed an appreciative look to Tianxiao.
"Tianxiao, it was truly not easy for me to take you as my disciple. Your ability to find the core of the Heavenly Dao is a matter of fate between us, and I can guarantee that."
"Anyone who dares to bully you today is going against me, Wan Liancheng!"
"It's Elder Wan!"
Chen Mingde's expression immediately turned bitter.
This is a sixth-level elder who is a realm above him. It is said that he will soon have the opportunity to break through to the high-level True Monarch realm.
If you clash with him, you could kill him with a single slap.
Although it's not easy for elders to fight each other, this time someone has caught him red-handed. If Wan Liancheng is willing to stand up for Tianxiao...
Then he's going to bleed!
Tianxiao's expression was also strange.
He explained to Lin Jinglong, "Wan Liancheng is nominally my master, but he has never actually cared about me. I have been in the Tianlong Sect for so long, and I have only seen him no more than five times. Apart from exchanging a few words at the beginning, this old man has never paid any attention to me."
"It's alright, let's pledge allegiance to Wan Liancheng, but we need to keep him in suspense and extract some benefits from him. Ideally, we can use the Heavenly Dao Core to obtain an elder-level status."
Lin Jinglong has gradually come to a clear understanding of the situation in Thousand Star City; it is not a situation that can be controlled by personal force.
Several major sects, including the Heavenly Dragon Sect.
Their strength goes without saying.
They all came for that Heavenly Dao Record.
To gain any advantage here, having a proper identity is essential.
Especially for those of them from the lower realms, who are inherently vulnerable, supporting Tianxiao to become an elder would also benefit them.
Tianxiao understood the outline of Lin Jinglong's plan.
He could only sigh, forcing a helpless smile, and said to Wan Liancheng, "Master, I was the one who helped you snatch this Heavenly Dao Core, but I didn't expect Elder Chen to be so arrogant and try to kill me to steal the treasure. I am a true disciple of the Heavenly Dragon Sect!"
"If this gets out, our sect will lose all face, and it will be disheartening for ordinary disciples like me!"
