Luo Bing lowered his head
Long Chen's words made Luo Bing's face turn cold. Killing intent surged in her eyes as she glared fixedly at Long Chen, wishing she could bite him to death alive.
"Little beast, keep dreaming!" Luo Bing said, gnashing her teeth.
Before Long Chen could continue speaking, Ling Yunzi let out a cold snort and said, "You had better agree to him."
"Hmph, so what if I don't agree? What can you do to me?" Luo Bing said with a sneer.
Although going back on her word was embarrassing, admitting that she was a pig wasn't just embarrassing; it was a humiliation, a humiliation that would prevent her from ever rising again.
She would become the laughingstock of all the branches belonging to the Xuantian Branch, so she absolutely could not say those words no matter what.
"I can give you the Merit Points, and I can also give you a spot for the Jiuli Secret Realm. This is the greatest concession I can make. You had better not fail to appreciate what is good for you," Luo Bing said coldly.
"Appreciate? A shrew like you who treats insulting others as entertainment also knows about appreciation? None of these three wagers can be missing. Don't you like to be high and mighty, trampling others under your feet? Today, I will make you admit that you are a pig," Long Chen said coldly.
"Keep dreaming. If you dare to say that, you won't get a single thing from the wager. Let's see what you can do to me!" Luo Bing simply started acting like a shrew.
She herself was an Innate expert, and she even had an older brother who was a Sect Leader. She didn't believe Ling Yunzi would dare to do anything to her.
"Sorry, then I can only kill you," Ling Yunzi said indifferently.
"You dare?" Luo Bing said angrily.
"I will give you three counts to consider. If you don't agree, after three counts, I, Ling Yunzi, swear in the name of the long sword in my hand to sever your head. Three!" Ling Yunzi let out a cold snort.
Luo Bing's expression changed drastically. She knew that Ling Yunzi was a Sword Cultivator, and the long sword in his hand was his highest faith.
Sword Cultivators were all arrogant existences who never swore easily, and even less would they swear by the long sword in their hands. This was the highest oath of a Sword Cultivator; they would do what they said.
If they failed to fulfill this oath, their Dao Heart would suffer a devastating blow, and they would be unable to advance even an inch for the rest of their lives.
Therefore, Luo Bing was afraid. She finally believed that Ling Yunzi was serious and was not just trying to scare her.
"You are crazy. If you kill me, you won't be able to escape either."
"Two." The answer to her was Ling Yunzi's cold voice.
Sweat instantly broke out on Luo Bing's face. She even felt that Ling Yunzi's long sword was gathering momentum, like a bloodthirsty demon about to bite through her throat.
"One."
"I admit defeat! I am a pig, I admit that I am a pig, please spare me!" Luo Bing screamed in horror.
After she shouted that one word, Ling Yunzi's long sword seemed to have a Demonic Beast Awakening in an instant. The terrifying killing intent instantly destroyed Luo Bing's last line of psychological defense.
The whole place was silent. The Disciples of the 36th Branch looked blank; a generation of Innate experts had actually admitted in public that she was a pig. This was simply embarrassing to the extreme.
And Gu Yang and the other Disciples felt so satisfied. When that woman arrived at the branch earlier, she kept calling them pigs who wasted food. That arrogant appearance was just like a Heavenly God looking down on ants.
Now, under the pressure of life and death, she admitted that she was a pig, which made everyone both excited and disdainful.
"Pfft, and she calls herself an Innate expert with only this much backbone? She's just a shrew who fears death."
"Boss Long Chen is right. Sure enough, heroes don't ask about their origins, and shrews don't look at their age."
"Did Boss Long Chen say that? How come I don't know?"
"Tch, that's because you don't pay attention to lectures usually. Every word Boss Long Chen has said, I have written down in my notes and review them daily. Can you compare with me?"
"…"
"Clang." The long sword returned to its sheath. Ling Yunzi looked coldly at Luo Bing, wanting to say something, but hesitated for a moment and still said nothing.
Long Chen knew that Ling Yunzi was a bit disdainful of dealing with such a shrew, so he hurriedly opened his mouth and said, "Hey, don't think that just because you admitted you are a pig, everything is fine. Has your pig brain forgotten what you need to do next?"
Facing the ridicule of the Disciples of the 108th Branch and the disappointment of the Disciples of the 36th Branch, Luo Bing felt she was going crazy.
"Here." Luo Bing flicked her hand, and two Nameplates flew toward Long Chen. Long Chen reached out and caught the Nameplates, then threw them directly to Tu Fang. These things knew Long Chen, but Long Chen didn't know them.
Tu Fang checked the Nameplate; it was indeed the identity Nameplate for entering the Jiuli Secret Realm.
The other Nameplate was Luo Bing's own. Elder Tu Fang swiped across it, and his expression became a bit strange.
"What's wrong?" Long Chen asked.
"It's not enough for 400,000; it's still missing 3,000 Merit Points," Tu Fang said with a strange expression.
However, thinking about it, it was indeed about right. Luo Bing carried nearly 800,000 Merit Points on her, which was equivalent to their branch's welfare for a year.
"Let's just forget about these 3,000 Merit Points," Tu Fang smiled slightly and flicked his hand, throwing the Nameplate back to Luo Bing.
Tu Fang was a generous person, but Long Chen was a bit unhappy: "Elder Tu Fang, you are being too ruthless. At this point, you still want to slap Senior Luo's face? That's not good, is it?"
"How so?" Tu Fang was stunned.
"She has already admitted that she is a pig and has paid such a huge price. Would she leave a remainder for you to hold against her? Even if you are kind enough to wipe the remainder for her, who is she? She is an Innate expert, a person of status and face. How could she be so shameless as to take advantage of others? Especially taking advantage of people like us from the boondocks? Aren't you slapping her face? Don't you think so, Senior Luo Bing?" Long Chen said with a grin.
Tang Waner tried hard to hold back her laughter. This bastard was too bad. Luo Bing was really too unlucky. No, it should be said that anyone who was Long Chen's enemy would be unlucky.
However, seeing Long Chen mock her like this, the Disciples of the branch felt it was satisfying and vented their anger; it was extremely enjoyable.
Seeing a generation of arrogant and domineering Innate experts being mocked by Long Chen until she was bruised all over, with a gloomy face, was truly satisfying.
Tu Fang was stunned at first, then couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly. This Long Chen was truly a ruthless person. Either he didn't mess with people, or once he did, he would mess with them to death, without leaving any room for them.
But thinking about it, it was true. With Luo Bing's narrow-minded and vengeful personality, there was no difference in how much you offended her. It was better to offend her to death; it was even more satisfying.
Luo Bing's whole body began to tremble at this moment. From a distance, it looked like she was having an epileptic seizure. Trembling, she took out three Medicinal Pills from her ring, threw them to Long Chen, and led those Disciples away without looking back.
Long Chen took the three Medicinal Pills. He didn't even need to look; just by the fragrance, he knew they were Three Flower Tendon-Clearing Pills. Although they were High Grade, the refining technique was much worse than his own. However, since they were free, he couldn't be too picky.
"Thanks, welcome back next time, boss," Long Chen said with a smile, looking like a businessman who valued harmony.
"Pfft." Luo Bing, who had already led her Disciples hundreds of feet away, finally had her anger attack her heart, and she spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Long Chen, you just wait for me. We are not done yet."
After saying this, Luo Bing's figure moved like a phantom, dashing out of the branch and disappearing in front of everyone in the blink of an eye.
She really couldn't take it anymore. She felt like she was going to explode with anger. She needed some time alone.
The Disciples of the 36th Branch, seeing Luo Bing leave, also hurriedly took the wounded and dashed out, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Coming aggressively and leaving in a hurry, seeing the Disciples of the 36th Branch leave, the branch Disciples erupted into a heaven-shaking cheer.
They ran crazily to Long Chen's side, grabbed Long Chen without a word, and tossed him into the sky. Only in this way could they express the excitement in their hearts.
"Hey, hey, don't get handsy. I don't like being touched by men. Damn, who touched my ass…" Long Chen couldn't help but shout.
Everyone couldn't help but burst into laughter. The carnival lasted for a good while before everyone stopped.
Long Chen could understand everyone's mood. After everyone calmed down slightly, Long Chen said to Gu Yang: "I intentionally didn't win back the golden spear. This is a trial for you; you need to take it back yourself."
"I know. I will definitely take back the weapon that belongs to me," Gu Yang said solemnly. He swore that he would never be soft-hearted toward enemies in the future.
"Look at your lack of ambition. That's it?" Long Chen couldn't help but scold.
"How so?" Gu Yang was a bit confused by the scolding.
Guo Ran explained: "Boss's meaning is that you should take back what belongs to you, and by the way, bring back some other things. Haven't you heard that there is something in this world called interest? Don't you understand Boss's style yet?"
Gu Yang suddenly realized. Long Chen's personality was typical of someone who would stab himself in the ribs for his brothers and stab his enemies with knives all over.
Long Chen didn't easily make enemies, but once he identified an enemy, he would mess with them to death, absolutely until they were dead.
Thinking about being an enemy with Long Chen before, Gu Yang couldn't help but break into a cold sweat, and at the same time, he admired Long Chen's breadth of mind even more.
If someone had bullied Gu Yang like that back then, Gu Yang wouldn't have had the courage to accept a former enemy.
However, thinking about it, Gu Yang felt a bit inferior. Perhaps in Long Chen's heart, he wasn't qualified to be an enemy yet.
He wanted to ask Long Chen several times if he had regarded him as a real opponent back then, but after hesitating several times, he didn't dare to ask. He was afraid that the answer would hurt him very much.
After cheering with everyone for a while, Long Chen was called away by Ling Yunzi and Tu Fang, because Tu Fang wanted to ask how to arrange the Merit Points that Long Chen had won.
Long Chen directly said to exchange all these Merit Points into Three Flower Tendon-Clearing Pills; every Disciple should be able to get one.
According to Tu Fang's meaning, these Three Flower Tendon-Clearing Pills could be supplied only to the core Disciples first. After all, the Jiuli Secret Realm was about to open soon, and improving their strength was imminent.
Long Chen thought about it and decided against it. He could refine the Three Flower Tendon-Clearing Pills himself, and the quality was much better than the ones exchanged.
Anyway, he didn't have anything to do during this period, so he might as well do the hard work and refine pills for everyone.
If he were to refine pills for all the Disciples, he would be exhausted to death, but refining for just the core Disciples was no problem.
Seeing Long Chen insist on distributing the Medicinal Pills to everyone, Ling Yunzi and Tu Fang did not object. They also saw Long Chen's intention and simply let him be.
After Long Chen left, Tu Fang and Ling Yunzi looked at each other and saw the admiration in each other's eyes. Long Chen was indeed a person of character. It was no wonder those Disciples were willing to follow him; he really treated every Disciple as a brother.
Just as the Xuantian Branch was happily distributing the Three Flower Tendon-Clearing Pills, Luo Bing led her Disciples back to the 36th Branch.
"Brother, you must help me kill Long Chen," Luo Bing said, gnashing her teeth as soon as she saw the Sect Leader.
