The moment they saw the object in Chu Ge's hand,
the two Luo Clan elders both froze, then greed surged across their faces, as though they wished to snatch the Huanglong Seal away on the spot.
Even Luo Lingtian's gaze flickered, his heartbeat involuntarily quickening.
"That's right! Hand over the Huanglong Seal to us, and we won't be stingy in granting you a great fortune!"
The gray-robed clan elder spoke excitedly, his face flushed red.
But before they could look at it a few more times, Chu Ge closed his hand, and the Huanglong Seal vanished from everyone's sight.
"The thing you people sought with such painstaking effort was so easily obtained by me. Not only that—its true spirit is perfectly obedient to me."
"You Luo Clan members may acknowledge it… but it does not acknowledge you!"
A mocking smile appeared on Chu Ge's face, like that of someone gloating at a wronged victim.
"Brat! You dare ridicule me?!"
The gray-robed clan elder flew into a rage and glared at Chu Ge.
If not for the presence of Luo Huangjun and Dantai Jinglian, he would have already attacked on the spot.
Even the ancestor Luo Canglin frowned deeply.
"Young friend, do not bring disaster upon yourself. This item is a curse, not a blessing, in your hands. It would be best to return it to our clan. Afterward, you will surely be richly rewarded."
Luo Canglin spoke in a deep voice, a powerful oppressive force hidden within his words.
"Hmph! Spare us your hollow bluster. If you have the courage, then make a move. I would not mind experiencing the methods of a Luo Clan ancestor."
Dantai Jinglian snorted coldly as the Huangyan Pagoda once again appeared in her hand.
Luo Huangjun said nothing, but the faintly rising aura around her body declared her stance to everyone.
Seeing this, Luo Canglin knew that today's matter had become troublesome.
Two cultivators whose strength far surpassed ordinary Eighth Heaven experts—one of them even wielding the Huangyan Pagoda, a supreme treasure of this level.
And in Luo Huangjun's possession, there was also the Huangjie Sword of the same tier, even though it had not yet been summoned.
Even though Luo Canglin was a Ninth Heaven ancestor, facing these two, he had no real confidence.
For a time, the scene fell into an uneasy silence.
Meanwhile, Chu Ge was observing the Luo Lingtian who had remained silent all along.
Just moments ago, Luo Huangjun had transmitted a message to him, informing him of these people's identities.
Naturally, he now knew that the young man before him was the second Child of Destiny.
Judging by his age, he was not much older than Chu Ge, yet his cultivation had already reached the peak of the Fourth Heaven—on par with that Luo Feipeng from before, who was much older.
There was no need to guess—Luo Lingtian's true strength far exceeded his realm. Compared to him, even Luo Feipeng was unworthy of carrying his shoes.
A living, breathing source of villain points stood right before his eyes—how could Chu Ge not be tempted?
But Luo Lingtian was different from Ye Chen.
Chu Ge naturally could not suppress and harvest him little by little as he had done with Ye Chen.
After all, the several people at his side all possessed extraordinary cultivation.
And the current situation in the field was also very clear—actual fighting would be extremely difficult to start.
One move would set off a chain reaction. Once hands were truly thrown, it would be hard to stop. Yet the Luo Clan members were unwilling to retreat just like this.
For a time, the situation became deadlocked.
Instead, it was these two younger generations who now had the opportunity to lead the course of events.
Just then, Luo Lingtian finally spoke.
"Ancestor Canglin. Two clan elders."
All three turned their gazes toward him.
Even Luo Huangjun and Dantai Jinglian shifted their eyes onto him as well.
Luo Lingtian slowly stepped forward as he continued speaking.
"How about letting this Holy Lord's personal disciple and me decide the ownership of the Huanglong Seal between ourselves—what do you say?"
As his words fell, he had already arrived before Chu Ge, staring straight at him.
And the final two words—"what do you say"—were directed not only at the Luo Clan members, but also at Chu Ge.
Naturally, the gazes of everyone else present also shifted onto Chu Ge.
