Two elders appeared on the high platform. As soon as they appeared, the entire venue fell silent. Even the law enforcement elders who had appeared earlier stood respectfully on either side, their faces solemn.
"The one leading the way is our Sect Master, and the one beside him is an envoy from the Emperor's Heaven." Afraid Long Chen wouldn't understand, Qian Feng quietly transmitted to him.
"Idiot."
But as soon as Qian Feng sent a message, Long Chen immediately felt troubled. Sure enough, as soon as he finished transmitting the message, the sect leader above swept his gaze over the two of them.
Qian Feng immediately felt his scalp tingle, but Long Chen cursed inwardly. Sending a message in front of a Saint King expert—are you asking for death?
Fortunately, this guy hadn't revealed any secrets, or Long Chen would have felt the urge to slap him to death. Fortunately, the sect leader was probably embarrassed to lose his temper in front of that envoy, so he only gave a brief warning without saying anything.
The sect master of the Soul Killing Sect appeared to be a middle-aged man around forty, thin in build, but his eyes were sharp as blades, making it impossible to meet his gaze.
This was an extremely powerful Saint King-level expert. Long Chen also sensed the fate fluctuations from him, and couldn't help but feel a stir in his heart.
At that moment, the sect master of the Soul Kill Sect spoke: "Today, at the important council of the Soul Kill and Blood Kill sects, we have invited the divine envoy from the Emperor's Celestial Hall to explain the current situation and future plans." When
the Soul Killing Sect leader arrived, his expression was already grim. After saying a few words, he withdrew directly, leaving another elder standing at the center of the platform.
That old man was also a Saint King powerhouse, but Long Chen felt his strength was probably inferior to the sect leader. Still, judging by his arrogant expression, it seemed he didn't take the sect leader seriously.
The divine envoy cleared his throat, glanced around, and said coldly, "Before the council begins, I need to remind you: with the state of you all, entering Emperor Heaven will only make you cannon fodder in the Heavenly Palace." The
divine envoy's words were extremely blunt. As soon as he spoke, the faces of the powerful figures present changed slightly. Those who could come here were all elites from the Fate-Hunting clan, many holding important positions at a young age, surrounded by many auras surrounding them.
The divine envoy's contemptuous expression made them very annoyed, but they dared not show it. The envoy curled his lips and said, "
Look at you, each one is either lifeless, carefree, or even worse, after I arrived, you even whispered to someone through a voice transmission. You're hopelessly foolish."
Qian Feng, standing next to Long Chen, instantly turned ashen. He had thought only the sect leader had noticed, but unexpectedly, this old man found out too, leaving a bad impression on him. If this old man targeted him, his life would be ruined.
"I don't even know what you're thinking. Do you know how the strong are born? That kid with feet raised higher than his head—answer me!"
The divine envoy roared with a dark expression. As he spoke, his voice rolled like rolling thunder, shaking heaven and earth. Everyone was startled by the old man's sudden fury.
At this moment, everyone turned their heads and looked at Long Chen. Long Chen was lazily lying there, his feet leaning against the seats in the front row, looking as arrogant as could be.
"Long San, put your feet down!" Qian Feng, standing next to Long Chen, broke out in a cold sweat. Afraid of being implicated, he hurriedly tried to persuade him.
Long Chen ignored him. Facing the divine envoy's angry glare, Long Chen remained calm and said,
"As a strong person, the most important thing is to seize every opportunity around you. You must never allow any chance to slip away."
If there are no opportunities, then find ways to create them. So-called strong people are built upon countless opportunities. The
divine envoy, who had been furious, was stunned by Long Chen's words. He hadn't expected Long Chen's answer to be so clever.
You little brat, with your little tricks, no fool would understand them," Long Chen chuckled to himself.
"That's right, the strong are seizers and creators of opportunities. Do you know that today's council will determine your future rise and fall, honor and disgrace, even your life and death?" The divine envoy shouted coldly.
The powerful figures present were shocked. They had only received a notice from the council but had no idea what the council was about. They thought it was just an ordinary council, but they hadn't expected it to be so important. For a moment, everyone began to sit up solemnly, their expressions solemn.
"Attitude determines everything. With your attitude, how will you face the challenges within the Emperor's Heaven in the future? You can't even protect yourselves, let alone talk about destroying the Purple Blood Clan and avenging the eternal shame?" The old man shouted angrily.
"That's mistaken!" Long Chen lay there, shaking his head as he spoke.
Qian Feng, standing next to Long Chen, was so scared he almost wet himself. He kept shouting in his heart: Long San, Lord Long, Master Long San, please, stop messing around, I'm going to get dragged into this.
"Oh?" Where is the difference? If you don't give a reasonable reason, you won't save your head today. The envoy snorted coldly.
Clearly, he had already developed murderous intent toward Long Chen. He wanted to kill a few people to establish his authority, but Long Chen deliberately clashed with his blade. At this moment, the sect leader also looked at Long Chen with a puzzled expression, a look of surprise in his eyes, as if he had noticed something was off about Long Chen.
Facing the divine envoy's murderous gaze, Long Chen remained calm and composed, "You said before that opportunities favor those who are prepared. The strong are good at seizing and creating chances; attitude determines everything."
On the surface, you seem carefree, but in reality... You read that right, I really am carefree. "
You..."
The divine envoy was furious, thinking Long Chen was toying with him. He waved his hand to strike, but Long Chen waved his hand and said, "Have you ever thought about why, among the hundreds of thousands present, am I the only one daring to act so carelessly?"
The divine envoy was taken aback, then asked, "Why?" "
Because I want to highlight myself. Look, in the entire council right now, aside from the sect leader, you remember me the most!" Long Chen shrugged and said.
"Are you deliberately trying to get my attention?" The man narrowed his eyes and said.
"Of course, using this method to attract attention is an extremely childish tactic, but as long as it achieves the goal, any method is fine, right?"
I know I'll leave you with a bad impression, but that's okay, as long as it does, because later, you'll see a different side of me. Long Chen said calmly.
The divine envoy nodded calmly and said, "Arrogant and arrogant because of your talent?" Alright, I like this kind of character. If you truly have talent, I wouldn't mind promoting you beyond my usual standards, and I might even take you as my disciple.
But if you're all show and no substance, strong on the outside but hollow within, don't blame me for being ruthless. "
Idiot, even if you kneel and beg me, I won't accept you as my disciple." Long Chen rolled his eyes, wanting to hear the council's content, and stopped talking.
The divine envoy also ignored Long Chen, his expression turning serious as he said coldly, "Today's council will begin with one arm!" "
Pfft"
At some point, the divine envoy suddenly produced a long sword in his hand. With a flick of the sword, an arm flew high from the high platform.
"Sect Master!"
Among the powerful figures present, except for Long Chen, everyone else cried out in shock. The divine envoy had actually severed the Sect Master with a single sword strikeOne arm.
