The Beautiful CEO's Dragon Blood Bodyguard-Chapter 1174: Boasting Brings Trouble
Chapter 1174: Chapter 1174: Boasting Brings Trouble
"South Profound Senior is dead?"
"How is that possible? How could South Profound Senior be defeated?"
"I don’t believe it, South Profound Senior wouldn’t lose like that."
The third-rate cultivators on the scene were the first to react, staring at Long Fei with dumbfounded expressions, unable to accept this reality.
Those who were quick to respond immediately knelt down, bowing their heads and shouting loudly, "From now on in the South Yangtze Cultivation World, Daoist Long will lead the way!"
"We are willing to recognize Daoist Long as our leader!"
"Daoist Long is peerless in both literary grace and martial prowess; we are willing to follow by Daoist Long’s side."
Long Fei had no interest in this ragtag bunch. The elites of the South Yangtze Cultivation World had already become his sect disciples, and he had no use for these ragtags.
They would flatter him with a few words, and then he would have to give them benefits to appease them. Long Fei was not interested in such a losing business.
Third Master Shen and a few others approached excitedly to cozy up, shaking hands and embracing, acting as if Daoist Long was their buddy.
The wealthy tycoons behind them watched with envy, unable to believe they actually knew the man who defeated South Profound Senior.
Liuu Ruyan and Zhang Xuan’er held their heads high, proudly enjoying the glory of accompanying Long Fei.
The tycoons here, each one of them, possessed enough wealth to shake the world.
Outside, they were all untouchable figures.
Now before them, they were no different from grandsons, fearing that Long Fei might settle scores with them come autumn.
The higher-ups of the Yin Yang Sect, covertly hidden here, asked Long Fei in secret if they should take over the Zhang Family’s assets.
You should know, the Zhang Family is a succulent piece of meat.
They got their current assets spread across the world through plunder and coercion.
With Zhang Hengyu’s defeat, the Zhang Family no longer had anyone who could hold up the family banner.
Long Fei agreed and left the matter to them to handle.
Although Zhang Hengyu had not perished, his physical body had exploded, and for the time being, he could no longer appear in this world.
Long Fei had already guessed where he had gone. Earthly matters were no longer of any concern to Zhang Hengyu.
To swallow the Zhang Family’s assets was to swallow them; the Yin Yang Sect had properties everywhere, but they didn’t really control much in the South Yangtze region.
Suddenly, Sixth Master Tan came up in a hurry, shouting, "Disaster! Has anyone seen my nephew? Why is my nephew missing?"
Ma Kui laughed and said, "Your nephew is an ignorant brat; who knows with which girl he’s crawled into a quilt?"
"I think so too!"
Golden-eyed Leopard expressed his agreement.
Sixth Master Tan cursed, "You two stop talking nonsense. His phone is out of service; even if he’s crawled under a quilt, he should still be contactable, right?"
Someone asked from the side, "Your nephew, isn’t he the young man who boasted about being buddies with Daoist Long?"
Sixth Master Tan cried out, "Yes, yes, his name is Tan Yaozong, have you seen him?"
This daoist nodded and said, "I took a glance just a moment ago, it seems like that old fellow from the Yin Ghost Sect made a move and took him away."
"Are you talking about Du Huai?"
Long Fei raised his eyebrows, staring at this daoist as he spoke.
The daoist quickly nodded and said, "Yes, it should be him. This old fellow arrived with a strong yin energy; I couldn’t have mistaken him."
"Damn it, we have no beef with him, why did he kidnap my nephew?"
Sixth Master Tan was utterly confused.
The daoist shook his head and said, "I don’t know about that, maybe your nephew offended him?"
Long Fei thought for a moment; he did indeed have a grudge with this Du Huai.
Could Du Huai’s abduction of Tan Yaozong be because of him?
He asked the Daoist, "Do you know where Du Huai’s Taoist practice ground is?"
The Daoist replied respectfully with a fist and palm salute, "I do. He is my neighbor, and we both cultivate on an island in Tai Lake."
Sixth Master Tan anxiously bent over and performed a deep bow, pleading, "Brother Long, I know that Yaozong has offended you in the past, but please, for the sake of this old man, you must save him."
Long Fei raised his hand and said, "There’s no need for such formalities, Sixth Master. I have some karma to settle with the Yin Ghost Sect, so I was going to go there anyway. You don’t need to do this."
Third Master Shen and the others expressed their excitement, "Then we’ll also go and join in the fun."
Sixth Master Tan rolled his eyes, thinking that these harmful friends were really too much.
While one was going to rescue his nephew, what festivities were there for them to join? Judging by their excited appearance, they seemed almost thankful for his nephew’s disappearance.
The group immediately left and drove together to Tai Lake.
On the way, Long Fei chatted briefly with the Daoist who was leading them.
To Long Fei’s surprise, this Daoist turned out to be a descendant of Mount Wudang.
It was said that his ancestors cultivated on Mount Wudang, and later secluded themselves on an island in Tai Lake to cultivate alone, thus founding the current Tai Chi Sect.
This island in Tai Lake has its unique features.
There is a mountain and a valley on the island; the mountain is extremely Yang while the valley is extremely Yin, possessing the rhythm of Tai Chi.
The ancestor of the Tai Chi Sect established his Sect here, also for this reason.
The cultivation grounds of the Yin Ghost Sect are located in this valley.
After Du Huai forcefully took Tan Yaozong back, only two or three disciples came out to welcome them.
Since the Sect Master and Young Sect Master of the Yin Ghost Sect were killed by Long Fei last time, the disciples either dispersed or left, leaving only three behind.
The once renowned Sect in the South Yangtze now seemed quite desolate.
All the disciples combined numbered no more than a dozen.
In the dead of night, there were no electric lights around.
The source of illumination was a commonly used Daoist Light Gathering Stone, but the quality of these stones was poor, emitting a faint blue light.
The structures of the Yin Ghost Sect were mostly gloomy.
Carvings of skull heads were everywhere, and there were actual human and animal-shaped skulls strewn all over, nearly scaring Tan Yaozong to the point of wetting himself.
In front of a cold pond shrouded in white mist, Du Huai threw Tan Yaozong on the ground.
With tears in his nose, Tan Yaozong kowtowed and begged for mercy, "Master, we had no enmity in the past and no grudge recently, why did you kidnap me?"
Du Huai cursed, "Shut up, you’ve been nagging all the way, almost deafening me."
He lifted his severed arm, fixating his gaze on Tan Yaozong, "Do you know how I lost this arm?"
Tan Yaozong spurted blood; he was not an immortal, how would he know this?
"Played too much chicken? Blood clotting, amputation?"
He made a guess.
Du Huai berated fiercely, "You mother’s chicken, what a wastrel. It was Long Fei who cut off my arm. By killing you, I will have avenged my loss of arm!"
"Long Fei?"
Tan Yaozong stared at the old fellow, lost in thought for a moment but quickly came to his senses.
It turned out that this old guy was angry with Long Fei and was taking revenge on him.
Damn, that was the ultimate misfortune.
He knocked his head on the ground, hurriedly explaining to the old man, "Master, you have really misunderstood. Not only am I not Long Fei’s brother, but I also have a huge grudge against him!"
"Oh?"
Du Huai raised an eyebrow as he looked at him, "But you didn’t say so to others at Dianshan Lake?"
Tan Yaozong hurriedly explained, "Master, all that was just boasting. Look at me; if I really were Long Fei’s brother, how could you have caught me? You don’t know that all the beauties in Binhai City have been snatched away by this Long Fei. Because of this, I’ve fought with him several times, and now he’s killed me! Look at the slap mark on my face; it was him who hit me. If I were his brother, how could he beat me into this shape?"
