"nothing."
Xiao Chen hurriedly shook his head and then became serious.
"Mr. Long, I am actually doing this for the good of the Dragon Emperor."
"What? Are you trying to poach the Dragon King's genius, or are you doing this for the Dragon King's own good?"
Old Long was stunned.
"No wonder Old Chen said you are shameless, you are absolutely shameless!"
"Huh? Old Chen said that to me? This old fat guy is not very kind!"
Xiao Chen was stunned.
"Don't talk about him, you are so honest. Is it easy for the Eight Dragons to train a few top geniuses? You want to poach them all?"
Mr. Long was not happy.
"Master Long, are they really trained by the Eight Divisions of Heavenly Dragon? No."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"If it weren't for you, would they have had the opportunity to enter the secret realm this time? That's impossible."
“…”
Mr. Long didn't say anything.
"In the Eight Divisions of Heavenly Dragon, they are excellent, but they have always been suppressed, unless they work for the Dragon Chief..."
Xiao Chen said slowly.
"And then, they will return to their respective tribes. Even if you arrange for a new dragon head, problems may arise over time, unless you can keep them and let them become members of the Dragon Soul Hall."
“It’s unrealistic.”
Old Long shook his head.
"They will still return to their respective ministries, but they have already made their mark and the leaders of each ministries will definitely pay attention to them."
"No matter how much we value him, the resources of the Eight Dragons are limited... Even if we use a lot of resources to train a top-level genius, how many resources will it take?"
Xiao Chen looked at Elder Long.
"If they come to Longmen, won't it save the Dragon King's resources?"
Elder Long's face darkened: "Is this what you said, for the good of the Dragon Emperor?"
"One is to save resources, and the other is that after what happened in the secret realm, these top geniuses don't have any ideas? Elder Long, the [Dragon King] is not suitable for them to continue to develop, because the [Dragon King] is too huge and ancient, and it restricts them too much."
Xiao Chen said.
"Just say that the Dragon Emperor is corrupt."
Mr. Long was not happy.
"I'm already doing it, right? It takes time to change."
"Yes, but they are already top-level geniuses. They are growing very fast... [Dragon Emperor] does not have such soil."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"Even if you reform, it will take time. This time is too long and will delay them."
“…”
Elder Long was silent. He certainly knew what Xiao Chen meant.
"But Longmen is different. Maybe Longmen will have various problems like [Dragon King] in the future, but for now, that won't happen."
Xiao Chen said again.
"Longmen today is full of vitality and hope, and is also very fair... They will find their talents useful when they come to Longmen!"
"Longmen's foundation is still shallow..."
Elder Long looked at Xiao Chen.
"I know, but this is not a bad thing... Besides, Mr. Long, I don't want all of them. I just want a few."
Xiao Chen said.
"So, don't get excited..."
"Just a few? Are you sure? I got the news that Zhao Lao Mo and his men have already gone to look for dozens of people!"
Old Long glared again.
"What? Dozens?"
Hearing this, Xiao Chen was stunned.
"What Wei Jiang did was to destroy the future of the Dragon Emperor. But what you did was not the same?"
Mr. Long became angrier as he spoke.
"No, no, it's a misunderstanding, Mr. Long. There may be some misunderstanding here."
Xiao Chen said hurriedly.
“I didn’t let them dig that much!”
"No? Humph, go back and ask. I've found dozens of people!"
Old Long snorted coldly.
"If you find a few, I can bear it, but what do you want to do?"
“…”
Xiao Chen's face twitched. Are Lao Zhao and the others crazy?
Are you only thinking about the spiritual liquid reward, without considering the consequences?
Dozens of people?
How dare you!
He wanted them to recruit more talents, but he never thought of letting them drain out all the geniuses of the Dragon Emperor!
In such a short time, there are already dozens of people. By the time night comes, won’t all the geniuses in the secret realm have to be recruited?
No wonder Mr. Long got so angry!
If it were him, he would also get angry.
"Mr. Long, please don't be angry. This must be a misunderstanding... I will stop them right away."
Xiao Chen said hurriedly.
"Wait for you to stop it? By the time you stop it, who knows how many more people will join Longmen."
As Mr. Long spoke, he took a sip of tea and suppressed his temper.
"I've already sent someone there."
"Oh, that's good, Mr. Long, this is really not what I meant..."
Xiao Chen was helpless.
"The main thing is... why do I need so many people? I just want the best. I don't care about the average ones."
“…”
Old Long looked at him unkindly and looked down on the genius [Dragon Emperor]?
"No, that's not what I meant... Elder Long, it doesn't matter whether they are in Dragon King or Dragon Gate. We are a family after all."
Xiao Chen looked at Elder Long and said.
"Think about it, you trained them to deal with Tianwai Tian, and I trained them to deal with Tianwai Tian... We have the same goal, which means you don't have to do anything, saving resources and still achieving your goal."
"Stop talking nonsense, can it be the same thing?"
Old Long rolled his eyes.
"Let me ask you one thing. Are you being polite when you poach the Dragon King's genius? Doesn't your conscience hurt?"
"Old Long, I'll poach a few geniuses and give you a seventh-level expert, how about that?"
Xiao Chen thought about it and said.
"What's the meaning?"
Old Long was stunned.
"You mean, train them to become seventh-level strongmen?"
"Of course not. Didn't I go to the Chu family? The old lady is at the sixth level. After my guidance, she will soon reach the seventh level."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"Think about it, how much of a role can a seventh-level genius play? Isn't he much stronger than a few top-level geniuses who haven't grown up? So, you made a lot of money, right?"
"The old lady is going to the seventh heaven?"
Old Long was cheered up. Although the Dragon Emperor had some seventh-level warriors, they were not many.
Now that there is one more seventh level, there is naturally more strength and foundation.
"Well, it should be soon."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"What did you just say? What did you point out?"
Old Long was thinking of something and looked at Xiao Chen with a strange expression.
"Well, I guess so. If you think 'mutual communication' sounds good, then communication is fine."
Xiao Chen changed his words.
"I asked you to improve your relationship with the girl from the Chu family, but you ended up guiding the old lady to the seventh level?"
Mr. Long didn't know what to say.
"Mr. Long, please stop worrying about Chuchu and I... Do you think my house is not a mess enough?"
Xiao Chen was helpless.
"My mind is now focused on the outside world, so let's put aside the love affair for now..."
"Okay, I'll leave you alone, but the old lady is going to the seventh heaven, this is a big deal."
Mr. Long was a little excited.
"Old Long, this is my contribution, right? I don't want much, I just want to sickle them..."
Xiao Chen took the opportunity to speak.
"Zhao Lao Mo and the others have already finished their talk, and Xue Chunqiu even asked them to sign a written agreement. Now you say you don't want it, so you don't want it?"
Elder Long looked at Xiao Chen and frowned.
"What? And you signed a document?"
Xiao Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. What were they trying to do?
"So what do you say? What should we do now?"
"This matter ends here. No more poaching!"
Old Long stared.
"You mean... give me everything you promised me now?"
Xiao Chen's eyes lit up and he asked expectantly.
"Humph, they've all agreed. What can I do? This is because you've done a great job this time. Don't let it happen again."
Old Long hummed.
"Okay, okay, thank you, Mr. Long. I knew you were generous."
Xiao Chen grinned.
"You kid..."
Old Long shook his head. He was helpless against Xiao Chen.
"Remember what you said, let them grow..."
"Please rest assured that I will not treat them unfairly."
Xiao Chen expressed his opinion seriously.
"good."
Elder Long nodded.
"Okay, go ahead and deal with this matter."
"Okay."
Xiao Chen stood up.
"Elder Long, I'll be leaving first... By the way, we're hosting a banquet for Elder Xiantian tonight, are you coming?"
"I won't go. I have a lot of things to do."
Old Long shook his head.
"I'm going to go to the Chu family later."
"You're going to look for the old lady? She should be in seclusion, I'm afraid you won't be able to see her."
Xiao Chen said.
"Yeah, then I won't go there for now, just wait for the news."
Mr. Long nodded.
"Okay, you go first."
"Okay, I'll be leaving first."
Xiao Chen finished speaking and left.
“This kid…”
Elder Long looked at Xiao Chen's back and shook his head again.
He was going to open Dragon City and let this guy leave quickly.
If we let him stay any longer, who knows what kind of trouble he might cause.
After leaving the side hall, Xiao Chen breathed a sigh of relief. It was done.
Thinking of something, he hurried back to his residence.
When he came back, the poaching team was all there...
"Third brother is back..."
When Old Demon Zhao saw Xiao Chen coming back, he shouted.
"Third brother, the Dragon Lord knows that you are poaching people. You need to think of a countermeasure quickly."
"What countermeasures are you thinking of? I just came back from Elder Long's place."
Xiao Chen was annoyed.
"Ah? What's the Dragon Lord's reaction?"
Zhao Lao Mo asked hurriedly.
Xue Chunqiu and the others all looked over here as well.
"No, didn't I ask you to dig up the sickles? Why did you dig up dozens of them?"
Xiao Chen was helpless.
"There are only a few of them. There are so many of us, how can we share them?"
Zhao Lao Mo replied.
"Then I thought, we at Longmen need a lot of talent, so I cast a wide net..."
"Cast a wide net... Why don't you catch all the geniuses who enter the secret realm in one fell swoop?"
Xiao Chen was even more helpless.
"I wanted to do this, but before I could do it, the Dragon Lord knew about it."
Old Demon Zhao was also quite disappointed. How much spiritual fluid was lost!
“…”
Xiao Chen was speechless and sat down.
"Come on, tell me, how many people did you dig up in total?"
"Forty-three."
Hua Youque took out a list and handed it to Xiao Chen.
"The one with the right number is it."
"Where did this list come from?"
Xiao Chen was stunned.
"I counted them. What you saw before were the ones you targeted. I have another copy of this... Senior Zhao and the others said it wasn't enough, so they asked me who else I had, and I took out this list."
Hua Youque replied.
"And then... they rolled up."
"What's the meaning?"
Xiao Chen was curious, how could someone be rolled up after digging him up?
