Upon hearing this, Wan Liancheng knew that the other party was being insincere, but he was secretly delighted. Regardless of whether it was true or false, Tianxiao had already voiced his complaint to him.
That explains a lot.
Attitude determines everything!
"Smack!"
Without saying a word, Wan Liancheng slapped Chen Mingde across the face, sending the fifth-level elder flying.
He spat and cursed, "Did you hear that? How dare you injure my true disciple! You, surnamed Chen, are you looking for death?!"
"you……"
Chen Mingde, who had landed some distance away, suddenly changed his expression.
Although he already knew he was going to suffer a loss today, Wan Liancheng's slap was still unexpected, as he was being hit in front of so many people.
Where would he put his dignity as a fifth-level elder of the Heavenly Dragon Sect?
"Hmm? What's wrong with you?"
Wan Liancheng approached him and questioned him in a low voice.
Chen Mingde's face flushed red, and his son Chen Qi behind him also looked like he had suffered a loss and was seething with anger, but dared not vent it.
Chen Mingde looked at Wan Liancheng awkwardly.
Other people nearby were pointing and whispering.
Wan Liancheng's appearance has already determined many things. Today, the Chen father and son are probably going to make a fool of themselves!
But he still wanted to salvage some of his reputation.
"Elder Wan, I was indeed wrong about this. The Heavenly Dao Core is naturally yours, and I dare not compete with you for it. But could you please give me some face and let this matter rest for now?"
Chen Mingde lowered his voice and tried to persuade Wan Liancheng.
Seeing his attitude, Wan Liancheng sneered, looking at Chen Mingde with a mocking expression, his voice becoming increasingly contemptuous.
"Don't you even know who you are? How dare you try to steal the Heavenly Dao Core from me... a true disciple? You're courting death!"
"I understand, it was all my fault!"
Chen Mingde nodded immediately.
It seems we can't save face or substance this time.
But he could only admit defeat, since he was no match for Wan Liancheng. If Wan Liancheng insisted on causing him trouble just to vent Tianxiao's anger, then he was powerless to do anything about it.
"Tsk tsk tsk! Wasn't Elder Chen very arrogant just now? He clearly acted like he was invincible, but I didn't expect him to suffer such a great loss and not dare to say a word."
"It's utterly ridiculous, arrogant at first and obsequious at second!"
"I've never seen such a ridiculous person!"
"How shameful!"
The others nearby, especially those from other sects, took the opportunity to mock Chen Mingde and his son, making them wish they could disappear into the ground.
They could only lower their heads and dare not say another word.
Wan Liancheng then waved his hand.
After all, he was an elder of his own sect. Since he had already taught the other party a lesson, Tianxiao must have vented his anger. He gave him a lot of face.
If Tianxiao is still dissatisfied, then it is his own fault.
"Get lost. From now on, be more polite to my true disciple!"
"I see!"
Chen Mingde nodded immediately.
He grabbed his son and his group of disheveled followers, and fled the scene amidst the pointing fingers and whispers of the crowd.
Wan Liancheng went to Tianxiao's side.
He met his disciple's gaze.
"Are you satisfied with my decision?"
"I am so satisfied with Master, thank you so much, Master."
Tianxiao looked flattered.
He said excitedly, "Although I've only seen my master a few times over the years, I never expected that he still cares about me. Thank you so much, Master, for standing up for me this time!"
He finally managed to put on an excited act, but then he couldn't help but start being sarcastic, which made Wan Liancheng's lips twitch. He looked around.
He could only transmit his voice and say, "Find a place to settle down. I have something very important to discuss with you."
"OK."
Tianxiao chuckled.
He led Lin Jinglong and the others, following in Wan Liancheng's footsteps, into an old mansion in the city. That place seemed to be the location of Wan Liancheng, a sixth-level elder.
On the road of the past.
Tianxiao transmitted his voice to Lin Jinglong.
“You lent me the Heavenly Dao Core, but I didn’t truly refine it. What should I do if Wan Liancheng asks about it?”
“He can’t sense it, after all, they have never truly grasped the core of the Heavenly Dao in the lower realm. You just need to use the power I gave you to demonstrate it to them.”
"But the power I possess is too weak. Although I have reached the fifth rank, it is still too weak compared to Wan Liancheng."
Tianxiao still habitually started to feel anxious.
Lin Jinglong frowned and transmitted his voice, "Fool, just say you haven't fully refined it yet, you've only refined a portion of the power, that's why you're so weak, right?"
Lin Jinglong thought that as long as Tianxiao didn't hand over the Heavenly Dao Core, no one else would know that he didn't actually have the Heavenly Dao Core.
Even if they had a falling out with Wan Liancheng.
They probably also believe from the bottom of their hearts that Tianxiao does indeed possess a core of the Heavenly Dao.
Moreover, as Lin Jinglong's cultivation level improved...
The efficiency of utilizing the core of the Heavenly Dao is becoming increasingly higher.
Tianxiao's cultivation level will also rise accordingly, and perhaps soon he will be able to truly threaten Wan Liancheng.
By then, whether this charade continues or not will be irrelevant; they might even have already seized the Heavenly Dao Record.
However, that would require the Blood Slaughter Society's help.
The existence of the Blood Slaughter Society will be extremely important!
The two sides, one in the open and one in the shadows, must cooperate perfectly to seize the Heavenly Dao Record in an environment surrounded by wolves.
Lin Jinglong's manipulation left Tianxiao with no way to resist.
He entered the mansion, but as soon as he stepped inside, there were more than a dozen true disciples, including two fourth-level True Monarchs.
They frowned as they looked at Tianxiao, who had returned with Wan Liancheng.
Who is this?
The young man in the lead asked curiously.
The person next to him looked embarrassed and said in a low voice, "Senior Brother, this is our junior brother. He is Tianxiao, and like us, he is a true disciple of our master!"
Senior Brother Wan Liang suddenly twitched the corner of his mouth.
He was Wan Liancheng's adopted son and grew up with him since childhood. However, in front of his fellow disciples, he still called him Master.
"Master, why bring this person here? He seems to be just a nominal disciple?"
The Heavenly Dragon Sect has many true disciples, but only a portion of those true disciples assigned to the elders can become true disciples. The rest are often neglected for various reasons.
Although they can also obtain cultivation resources allocated by the sect.
However, it is still far inferior to the true teachings.
Tianxiao was provoked by Wanliang's attitude. He lowered his head, his eyes turning red.
He had endured this discrimination based on his identity for many years.
This time, however, Wan Liancheng simply smiled and patted his shoulder, saying casually, "Tianxiao, lift your head. You have always been my most outstanding disciple. I let you grow up freely to train you. You shouldn't blame your master, right?"
