Jiang Qing pondered for a moment, then waved his hand and said, "Just send Zheng Dongyang back, don't worry about anything else."
Zhao Xueji was extremely anxious. This was a sign that Jiang Qing wanted to protect Long Chen. Zheng Dongyang could also hear it. He endured the pain and hurriedly said, "Palace Lord Jiang, Long Chen attacked my Junior Brother without his consent, causing him to be seriously injured. He lost one of his arms and both of his legs. He won't be able to recover within a year. You can't protect him for such a big crime."
Jiang Qing's indifferent gaze landed on Zheng Dongyang. He suddenly smiled and said, "Dongyang, you can't say it like that. If this is considered a crime, you should have died countless times for what you did in the True Martial Emperor Palace. I will naturally look for the Hall Master to deal with this matter. Juniors like you don't have the right to cause trouble in my Jiang Heart Pavilion."
"You!"
Zheng Dongyang angrily pointed at Jiang Qing, but he was powerless to do anything. He gritted his teeth and stood up, staggering. Zhao Xueji quickly went to support him. At this moment, Zhao Xueji's expression was very unsightly. She suddenly had an illusion that the Master who doted on her twice as much in the past was a little different today. This change made Zhao Xueji a little flustered. She thought in her heart, "Could it be that I really did something wrong today and made Master angry?"
Now, she could only send Zheng Dongyang back and come back to apologize to Master. Thinking of this, Zhao Xueji fiercely glared at Long Chen, who was intoxicated with success. She supported Zheng Dongyang and left. Zheng Dongyang was very unhappy, but he could only leave in embarrassment. In front of outsiders, he dared to ridicule Jiang Qing, but in front of a senior, he didn't have the guts. Jiang Qing's position in the Evil Dragon Palace was second only to the Hall Master.
After they left, Jiang Qing didn't say anything and entered the Jiang Heart Pavilion. The others looked at each other in dismay, not daring to say anything. In the Jiang Heart Pavilion, Jiang Qing quickly arrived beside Jiang Lingwen. At this moment, Jiang Lingwen had already struggled to wake up. When he saw Jiang Qing, he wanted to greet her, but Jiang Qing pressed him down on the bed.
"Truly a waste. I raised you for so many years, but I didn't expect that I raised a complete waste."
Jiang Qing's cold eyes made Jiang Lingwen a little afraid. He quickly shook his head and said, "Master, wait for me to recover. I will work hard."
"That's best."
Jiang Qing didn't say anything else. She took out a jade box from her storage ring and said, "The things inside are enough for you to recover, but you still need some time to recuperate."
"Thank you, Master." Lingwen's eyes were brimming with tears.
Long Chen also breathed a sigh of relief. Just now, Zheng Dongyang had crushed the Open White Fragrance Pill. Now, Jiang Lingwen could finally recover.
After dealing with the matters here, Jiang Qing's gaze finally stopped on Long Chen in the corner. She said, "Follow me," and then left first.
Long Chen knew that he would be called.
In fact, the reason why Long Chen dared to be so fearless towards Yang Yu and Zheng Dongyang was because he knew that Jiang Qing's position in the Evil Dragon Palace was definitely not low. If the Evil Dragon Palace Master did not want to have a conflict with him, he would not dare to touch Long Chen and the others. The position of the Palace Master's disciple was definitely higher. This was necessary, but other than identity, there was another more important factor that determined one's position, and that was strength. When Long Chen displayed a fighting strength that surprised even Jiang Qing, it was impossible for him to be taught a lesson for injuring Yang Yu and Zheng Dongyang.
This was the rule, the rule of the True Martial Emperor Palace. No matter how many rules there were, there would always be a rule that surpassed all others, and that was the rule of the strongest.
Understanding this, Long Chen was able to display such a heaven-defying performance today.
"I was first surprised by your fighting strength, but now I find that I'm even more surprised by your calmness and wisdom."
After walking into a small room, Jiang Qing turned his head, revealing a kind look on his face. Long Chen's Yin Yang Sword Spirit was absolutely invisible. Jiang Qing absolutely didn't know that Long Chen had the will of an old friend. What he was most satisfied with now was that he had inadvertently accepted a disciple with infinite potential.
It could be said that Jiang Qing's attitude towards Long Chen was purely a kind of appreciation for the younger generation.
The most troublesome thing for geniuses was to compare them with each other. Jiang Qing's most outstanding disciple was Zhao Xueji. Among his disciples, she was the only one who could make him feel satisfied. Today, when Long Chen and Zheng Dongyang fought, Jiang Qing had already used his spiritual consciousness to observe the whole process. From Jiang Qing's performance, it could be said that Long Chen should be on the same level as Zhao Xueji in terms of fighting strength. However, Long Chen was much younger than Zhao Xueji, which meant that Long Chen's potential was greater. At the same time, from the dialogue between the two, it could be seen that Long Chen's will was more mature than Zhao Xueji's.
For Jiang Qing, this was the most perfect disciple he had encountered in so many years. Therefore, today, he didn't think about anything else and directly protected Long Chen.
What Jiang Qing was thinking, Long Chen actually knew in his heart.
"You have a lot of mysterious things on you, such as your realm, but these are your personal secrets and also your means. I won't ask too many questions, but this King will ask you a question."
"Master, please ask." Long Chen said.
Jiang Qing liked him even more when she saw his calm demeanor.
"Can you defeat Zhao Xueji?" Jiang Qing asked directly.
Long Chen didn't expect that he would actually ask this question. Long Chen didn't think much about it and directly said, "Maybe … I can."
"That's enough."
Jiang Qing smiled brightly and said, "You can go back now. Today, they should have introduced you to the Tower of Trials. Go there more often, maybe you will have unexpected gains."
Long Chen remembered Jiang Qing's words and then said goodbye to Jiang Qing and returned to the original place. Seeing Long Chen go back, the others were relieved and quickly asked Long Chen what to do next.
"We don't need to worry about the next thing, Master will handle it."
Long Chen smiled slightly, which made everyone confused. In their impression, Jiang Qing was a very serious person. How could he be so easy to talk to today?
Perhaps only Long Chen knew.
"Let's not disturb Old Five. Let him rest."
A group of people walked out of the room, leaving Jiang Lingwu to guard his brother. The others went to busy themselves with their own matters. For Long Chen, today's matter was already over. Jiang Qing would naturally handle it for him. Although Jiang Qing didn't say anything nice, in fact, at this time, he already regarded Long Chen as a treasure.
There was a harsh competition among the three thousand palaces. New genius disciples were the greatest source of vitality in this competition. The Evil Dragon Palace was ranked in the middle among all the palaces. It was neither high nor low, in an extremely awkward position. If the Evil Dragon Palace wanted to revitalize itself and raise its position, it could only rely on young genius disciples.
Long Chen was a new continent that Jiang Qing discovered.
How could he have known that this newly discovered treasure might also become a fatal killing machine?
In the next few days, Jiang Lingwen's injuries gradually improved. Under Jiang Qing's suppression, the commotion of this matter gradually dissipated. However, Long Chen's reputation spread throughout the Evil Dragon Palace.
He crippled Yang Yu and pierced Zheng Dongyang with a sword. Such a ruthless person was not punished. Yang Yu and Zheng Dongyang's reputation in the Evil Dragon Palace was not very good. Therefore, no one had any objections. However, from this, it could be seen that Jiang Qing doted on this new disciple very much.
Long Chen's status rose. Among Jiang Qing's disciples, apart from Zhao Xueji, the others were all mediocre. Long Chen's status instantly rose to Zhao Xueji's level.
It was said that Long Chen easily defeated Zheng Dongyang, who was in the fifth level of the Divine Martial Realm.
With this kind of strength, he could easily enter the top ten of the Evil Dragon Palace's young disciples. However, there were still three experts from the Evil Dragon Palace Master's faction who rarely showed themselves. They were in seclusion in the Trial Tower all day. If they came out of seclusion and heard the news, would they cause trouble for Long Chen?
The answer was yes.
It was just a matter of time.
Long Chen did not care about so many things. Jiang Lingwen's injuries were gradually recovering. Long Chen had already given him some guidance, which was already extremely benevolent. Jiang Lingwen still had to walk his own path. Long Chen's target was not the Evil Dragon Palace. Therefore, they could only be considered to have met by chance.
Next, it was time to enter the Trial Tower.
The Martial Path Puppets there were good stuff.
Long Chen did not feel comfortable just because he was strong now. He knew that he was still lacking. At least in this small Evil Dragon Palace, he could not be the overlord. In the three thousand palaces, he was even more of a nobody. With this little strength, not to mention marrying Lingxi openly, he might not even be able to reach the Sword Spirit Emperor Region safely.
The True Martial Emperor Palace was the place to temper Long Chen. Hence, he hoped to be more high-profile. Only then would he be in the limelight. He would be able to go to a higher place and meet stronger opponents. The Three Thousand Palaces weren't his goal. The Martial God Palace was his ambition. The true True Martial Emperor Palace was the Martial God Palace.
Cultivation.
After Jiang Lingwen's matter came to an end, Long Chen wholeheartedly immersed himself in cultivation. Since he was unfamiliar with this place, Long Chen headed to the Trial Tower.
At this moment, Long Chen's name had already spread throughout the Evil Dragon Palace. Along the way, everyone looked at Long Chen with respect. They were ordinary disciples. Even the true inheritors of elders were at most in the fourth layer of the Divine Martial Realm. They were not a match for Long Chen.
Furthermore, this youth was so young …
Everyone realized that because of Long Chen's participation, the structure of the younger generation of the Evil Dragon Palace was changing step by step.
"I really don't know if the three of them will fear this rising star when they come out of the Tower of Trials and see him. Or will they express their goodwill? It shouldn't be a gesture of goodwill. After all, Long Chen has already caused the Evil Dragon Palace's disciples to lose all face …"
