Chapter 2426: Not Easily Tamed

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

Su Mo shut his eyes in the secret chamber and immersed himself in cultivating. With the help of the Geocentric Herbs, his cultivation level was grounded in no time.

He did not devour any Dawn Stones. He felt that it was more important for him to stabilize and condense his cultivation level. After all, if his cultivation level was grounded, he could progress rapidly.

There were four Geocentric Herbs and they could help Su Mo save a considerable amount of time in his cultivation.

Su Mo intended to use the Spiritual Herbs, Elixirs, and Divine Fruit to push his way through to Rank 3 Advanced Realm.

While Su Mo was cultivating, Long Teng was facing a lot of trouble. Due to the great talent that Su Mo and Si Kongyan possessed, many people in the Dragon Tribe thought highly of them. The people visited Long Teng frequently as they desired to have Su Mo and Si Kongyan as their slaves.

Long Teng turned all of them down without giving them any room for negotiation. By doing so, he had offended many people and was ostracized by them.

Long Teng sat alone in the hall and lowered his head to ponder.

He was thinking of his next move. Su Mo had given him the task of obtaining a high position in the Dragon Tribe so that he could activate a part of the force.

Although Long Teng possessed great talent and became the godson of a Supreme Being, his godfather was an ordinary low-ranking Supreme Being. That was not enough.

“Eh?”

As Long Teng was pondering, he felt a strong aura outside his mansion. The aura lingered for a short while before it dissipated.

Long Teng used his mind power to look out and his heart sank instantly. An important person was outside his mansion.

He immediately stood up and opened the gate.

Two people were standing outside the gate. One of them was Long Lie, and the other was a middle-aged man.

The man resembled Long Lie and he was in a gray robe. He looked stern and had a bigger build than Long Lie.

“Greetings, Ninth Elder!” Long Teng immediately bowed at the middle-aged man as he was the Ninth Elder in the Dragon Tribe.

There were more than 30 Supreme Beings in the Dragon Tribe and 12 of them were Advanced Supreme Beings.

The Ninth Elder, Long Hai, was one of the 12. He was Long Lie’s father and he was holding a high position in the Dragon Tribe.

Long Teng’s heart sank and he immediately thought on his feet. He knew the purpose of Long Hai’s visit.

“Hoho! Long Teng, how have you been?” Long Hai smiled amicably and patted Long Teng on his shoulder.

“I am good. Thank you for your concern, Ninth Elder!” Long Teng said and forced out a smile.

“Haha! Long Teng, are you not inviting me in?” Long Hai asked with a smile.

“Please come in, Ninth Elder!” Long Teng immediately stepped aside and invited Long Hai into his mansion.

Long Hai and Long Lie walked into the mansion, and Long Teng led them to the hall.

“Please take a seat, Ninth Elder!” Long Teng humbled himself and invited Long Hai to take the main seat.

“Hmm!” Long Hai nodded and did not turn down his offer. He took the main seat, with Long Teng and Long Lie taking the lower seats by the sides.

“May I know the purpose of your visit, Ninth Elder?” Long Teng asked Long Hai as he cupped his fist at him.

“Long Teng, since you’ve gone straight to the point, I shall make my intention clear!”

Long Hai said with a grim look, “Since you have two slaves and they possess great talent, can you do me a favor and give one to Long Lie?”

That was what he had expected!

Long Teng’s heart sank when he heard what Long Hai had said. He was right in his conjecture!

Long Lie was silent. He simply stared at Long Teng and he was determined to get his heart’s desire.

He had asked Long Teng for one of the slaves but Long Teng had turned him down. Long Teng would have no choice now but to accede to his request since his father was the one putting forth the request.

“Long Teng, I know the value of such slaves. Just name your price and as long as it is within my abilities, I will try to meet up to your expectation!” Long Hai said with a smile. He had already treated Long Teng with due respect.

After all, as an Advanced Supreme Being, he was an important figure in the Dragon Tribe. His words carried a lot of weight.

“Ninth Elder, I’m afraid I can’t accede to your request!” Long Teng responded. The minute Long Teng made that statement, the atmosphere in the hall turned grave.

Long Hai squinted his eyes as he had not expected Long Teng to have the audacity to turn him down.

Although he was not interested in the slave, his son, Long Lie, desired one. Thus, he had no choice but to help his son talk to Long Teng.

“Long Teng, you have shown no regard for my father. How can you turn him down when he has put forth the request to you?” Long Lie was furious. He stood up and looked agitatedly at Long Teng.

Long Teng looked calm but he was frustrated. He had no desire to offend Long Hai but he could not let anyone have Su Mo or Si Kongyan.

“Long Teng, have you no regard for me?” Long Hai lowered his voice and asked without flaring up.

“Ninth Elder, it’s not my intention to offend you. However, these two slaves of mine are not easily tamed!” Long Teng said with a sigh.

“What do you mean?” Long Hai and Long Lie asked simultaneously.

“These two slaves possess great talent and they are proud. They will only submit to those people who possess greater talent than them. Back then, I had a tough time subduing them and I suffered severe injuries!” Long Teng explained. He could not turn Long Hai down and had to cook up an excuse.

“Oh? Is that so?” Long Hai asked in amazement when he heard what Long Teng had said.

“Yes. The two of them ever commented that they would rather kill themselves than to submit to a master who is useless!” Long Teng said with a wry smile to make himself look as though he was caught in a predicament.

“I see!” Long Hai nodded. He could understand it as geniuses were usually full of pride.

“Thus, in order to have the two of them as slaves, one has to be more powerful than them. At the least, he has to defeat them in the fight within the same rank!” Long Teng added.

“This is simple. I shall take them on and defeat them!” Long Lie said loudly with a smile.

“Alright. Long Lie, if you can prove yourself to them and defeat them, they will be willing to be your slaves!” Long Teng said with a smile. However, he knew that Long Lie was no match for Su Mo and Si Kongyan.

“Haha! Long Teng, I’ll take it as our deal!”

Long Lie was elated. He smiled and said, “Long Teng, I am not that greedy. I only wish to have one slave and I will let you have the other one.”

“Great. By the way, which slave are you interested in? Is it Yan Kong or Tu Xiao?” Long Teng asked.

“Yan Kong. I prefer him to Tu Xiao!”

Long Lie said with a smile, “Let Yan Kong know that I will be waiting for him tomorrow morning at the Mini Empty World. We shall have a duel within the same rank!”

Compared to Su Mo, Long Lie preferred Si Kongyan. Long Lie felt that Si Kongyan was haughtier and he possessed greater combat strength.

Su Mo merely possessed the mysterious Ancient Dream Primordial Spirit and had strong defensive power.

“Alright. I will ask him to go to the Mini Empty World tomorrow morning!” Long Teng nodded.

“Hoho! Long Teng, I like your acceptance with alacrity!”

Long Hai stood up and laughed heartily. He walked down from the main seat and came beside Long Teng. After patting Long Teng on his shoulder, he said, “In the future, you can come to me if you have any problem!”

“Thank you, Ninth Elder!” Long Teng cupped his fist to thank Long Hai.

“Hmm! I need to leave now as I have some other matters to attend to!” Long Hai nodded and signaled to Long Lie.

“Goodbye, Elder!” Long Teng said respectfully and sent Long Hai and Long Lie out of the mansion.

“They have gone overboard!” After Long Hai and Long Lie had left, Long Teng’s face darkened. Everyone knew that he was unwilling to let go of his slaves. However, the two of them had abused their powers to coerce him into submitting to their request.

If Long Teng had not acceded to their request, they would have made things difficult for him in the future.

Long Teng had to face these situations as he did not have power in the Dragon Tribe and he did not have anyone powerful to back him up.

“Si Kongyan, you must make Long Lie suffer!” Shortly, Long Teng sighed and walked into the palace to look for Su Mo and Si Kongyan.

It was no small matter and he had to warn Si Kongyan not to take it lightly. After all, Long Lie was a Rank 3 Middle True God.. Even if his cultivation level had been suppressed, he still had an edge over Si Kongyan although the fight was within the same rank.
