Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 1223: Chapter 1226: Why Are You Being So Overbearing?!

”Yes.”

Supreme Long Huang responded with a single word, scanning the crowd and fixing his gaze upon the Zodiac Guardian of the Ox.

This Ox was none other than the patriarch of the Luo Family, Luo Buxiang.

Luo Buxiang’s expression changed, and he turned his head away, not making eye contact with Supreme Long Huang, silently pondering his next move.

The crowd was briefly stunned before turning their gaze toward Luo Buxiang in unison.

The Rabbit’s eyes narrowed slightly as she turned to look at Elder Qing.

Elder Qing’s face changed subtly, giving a slight nod of acknowledgment.

The Rabbit was Liu Ruyan of the Liu Family, the current patriarch, and Elder Qing’s aunt!

”Today, something has happened that I find deeply embarrassing,” Supreme Long Huang said softly, ”All of you here are aware that I had vouched for the legitimacy of some funds belonging to the one hundred plus warriors who had come for Long Ya, saying that it was lawful and in accordance with the rules. Yet, they were thrown into prison cells at our Flame Dragon Group’s base by the person in charge of the base, accused of embezzling mission funds!”

Looking up at the Ox, Supreme Long Huang continued coldly, ”Ox, I want to ask you, the Long Ya special squad was only recently assembled and has not yet undertaken a single mission. How can you claim that they embezzled billions from mission funds when they have not participated in any mission? Which mission’s funds did they supposedly embezzle?”

”Ox?!”

”Billions in funds?!”

”The Long Ya special squad... hasn’t taken part in any missions, so how could there be any mission funds?!”

The crowd furrowed their brows, turning to look at Luo Buxiang.

Luo Buxiang’s face changed, and he responded with an apologetic tone, ”Supreme Long Huang, it was my mistake. I assumed they had withheld some mission funds, so I wanted to investigate.”

”Assumed? You imprisoned over a hundred warriors who had shed blood and sweat for the Flame Dragon because of a mere suspicion?” Supreme Long Huang’s voice was sharp and cold.

”What?!”

”They were thrown into prison cells?!”

”This... this is too much!”

The crowd expressed their discontent.

”It was my fault!” Luo Buxiang admitted his mistake again.

Supreme Long Huang let out a cold laugh, ”You seem quite sincere in your regret now, but what about before when Young Jiang arrived at your base? How did you respond? You barred him at the base entrance and immediately used lethal moves against him. When you showed up, you first slapped a major accusation on Young Jiang for forcibly entering the camp, then you even personally tried to kill him. What exactly were you trying to do?”

”What? You fucking tried to kill Young Jiang?!” Supreme Hu Sha’s expression turned fierce as he roared and glared fiercely at Luo Buxiang.

”You’re courting death!” The expression on Supreme Ming Que’s face turned icy as a chilling intent to kill erupted from him.

”Ox, you’ve gone too far!”

”Ox, I need a reasonable explanation!”

Supreme Phoenix Luan and Supreme Shi Kui spoke in turn.

The color completely drained from Luo Buxiang’s face, his disbelief clear as he looked at the speakers. He could never have expected that five of the six Supremes would question him on behalf of Jiang Chen, with Supreme Hu Sha and Supreme Ming Que even ready to kill!

The other Zodiac Guardians were shocked into stillness, looking at the five outspoken Supremes, their breathing suddenly subdued, as they realized the gravity of today’s events.

For the first time ever, five Supremes stand on the same side!

”I... esteemed Supremes, Elder Long, Lord Dragon Saint, it was Jiang Chen who first killed my grandson and my son!” Luo Buxiang’s thoughts raced in panic as he began to speak, his voice even taking on a sobbing tone!

”What!?”

”Jiang Chen killed Luo Tiangang and...”

”Impossible, right? Both Luo Tiangang and his son are Venerable Realm warriors, and Luo Tiangang is even a mid-stage Venerable. Jiang Chen is merely at the peak of the Semi Venerable Venerable Realm!”

”Could... could there be some misunderstanding here?”

A look of disbelief showed on the faces of everyone in the meeting room!

”Jiang Chen did kill them, but why? Would they not have laid a hand on Jiang Chen, and not tried to kill him right from the start, would Jiang Chen have fought back?” Supreme Long Huang rebuked angrily.

Luo Buxiang’s heart trembled, panic showing in his eyes as a bad premonition suddenly welled up. He quickly began to pitifully plea, ”Supreme Long Huang, now my son and my grandson are dead, and Jiang Chen is unscathed, what are you trying to do?”

”Unscathed? Just because Jiang Chen is unscathed, does that mean what you did can be overlooked?”

Supreme Long Huang spoke coldly, ”I ask you, what crime is it to wrongfully imprison a member of the group? What crime is it to attack and attempt to kill an ally of my Flame Dragon Group without cause? What crime is it to deliberately frame someone known to be innocent? You made the Flame Dragon Group lose an opportunity to significantly enhance its strength, let alone the loss of a Cultivation Technique for a Battle Array capable of defeating enemies of higher realms. What crime would that be?!”

”What?”

”A Battle Array Cultivation Technique capable of defeating higher-ranked enemies?”

”Could it be...”

Upon hearing these words, everyone exclaimed in astonishment. The crimes that Supreme Long Huang listed did not cause much of a reaction among the people, but the last accusation made everyone’s hearts tremble severely!

”That’s right, Jiang Chen killed Luo Tiangang using a Battle Array, a sixteen-man Battle Array. From what I know, this Battle Array can be formed by two, four, six, eight, sixteen people, and so on. Even if we can’t achieve killing enemies two levels higher like Jiang Chen, at least one level higher is realistic, right?”

”Can you imagine how much our strength would increase if our Flame Dragon Group mastered this Battle Array?” Supreme Long Huang glared venomously at Luo Buxiang, gritting his teeth as he spoke.

”That, that Battle Array could be taught to us by the special squad from Long Ya. They belong to my Flame Dragon Group, they should obey orders!” Luo Buxiang spoke out in panic.

”Bullshit!”

Supreme Long Huang shouted angrily, ”A Battle Array is like a Cultivation Technique; since when has our Flame Dragon Group had a rule that allows us to forcibly extract the techniques cultivated by our members?! Huh? When did our Flame Dragon Group ever become so overbearing? Huh? Is it because you’re fucking used to doing such things?”

The color drained from the faces of everyone in the meeting room as they frowned and looked towards Luo Buxiang!

”No, no, I mean... we can negotiate with them, I’m talking about negotiating, negotiating...” Luo Buxiang’s face turned pale as he argued desperately.

Forcing someone to surrender the Cultivation Technique they were practicing using one’s position of power was a great taboo, a taboo for any organization!

Even within a Sect between master and disciple, if a disciple happened to obtain a set of Cultivation Techniques, the master had no right to force the disciple to hand it over, much less in an organization like the Flame Dragon Group where everyone was simply a member, not even close to being master and disciple.

To put it plainly, everyone in the Flame Dragon Group was just gathered together by a sense of enthusiasm and responsibility!

”Negotiate? There’s nothing to negotiate!”

Supreme Long Huang said with disgust, ”The war formations of the special Long Ya squad were all taught by Jiang Chen, and he taught them many different formations with various powers, numbers, and amplifiers. Now, you’ve not only detained members of the special Long Ya squad, but you’ve even planned to kill Jiang Chen. Do you fucking think Jiang Chen will still agree to teach us the Battle Array?”

”You’re a disaster-causing bastard!” This time, even Supreme Kylin glared at Luo Buxiang furiously!

”Elder Qing, tell us about your conversation with Jiang Chen, what did the kid say?” Supreme Long Huang turned to Elder Qing, and everyone’s eyes followed suit.

Elder Qing was silent for a moment, glanced at Luo Buxiang, and spoke emotionlessly:

”Jiang Chen’s condition is... the annihilation of the Luo Family!”
