Chapter 1544: Chapter 1541: Took In Two Lackeys

"Chen... Chen Tianlong, please show mercy, we... we admit our mistake." Wu Hui tugged at the somewhat angry Second Protector and Third Protector beside him, signaling them to kneel together and beg for forgiveness.

"Great Protector, you may be scared, but I’m not. The Sect Leader Senior Brother is already dead, what’s there to fear?"

The Second Protector was a bit bold. He thought the Great Protector was a coward, always acting like a turtle when confronted by powerful individuals. Despite being a master of celestial dao seven-star great perfection in the Kunlun Sect, he found it laughable to have to kneel before others.

Chen Tianlong frowned; initially, he didn’t want to kill anyone else, as too many had been slain today. These people bullied Mengting and Feifei, making their deaths deserved. But as for these three, Chen Tianlong hadn’t intended to kill them, yet the Second Protector seemed to invite trouble himself.

"Oh? Do you wish to die? Come over then, I’ll fulfill your desire."

Chen Tianlong’s thoughts had changed. Previously lacking the power, he found it difficult to make the Kunlun Sect submit to him, but now it was different; being an extreme dao expert, celestial dao seven-star great perfection limits posed no threat to him.

Capturing the Kunlun Sect might not be a difficult task?

While thinking, Chen Tianlong knew a few individuals needed to be controlled. As a stranger, trying to take control of the Kunlun Sect would cause much dissatisfaction, easily leading to internal strife.

In these extraordinary times, Chen Tianlong wanted to avoid such a scene.

"Hmph, Chen Tianlong, don’t be too arrogant. Even if I die, our celestial dao seven-star great perfection masters will definitely avenge the Sect Leader Senior Brother; you won’t escape even with wings." The Second Protector spoke fearlessly.

"Haha, truly a brave man, but since you said so, I certainly can’t let you go. If you return, I’ll be in trouble."

Speaking, Chen Tianlong flashed over with a "sizzle," appearing behind the Second Protector. He sheathed the Dragon Slayer Sword and walked in front of Great Protector Wu Hui and Third Protector.

"Alright, it’s your turn now. Do you want to face death fearlessly, or face death fearlessly?" Chen Tianlong spoke with a seemingly amused smile, with an irresistible force despite his calm tone.

"Thud..."

The two knelt on the ground simultaneously, with the Great Protector trembling slightly, completely believing the man before them would strike in fear. And Chen Tianlong was out in force for the country; he thought many times that if he didn’t kill a few to assert power, this master-filled Kunlun Sect wouldn’t submit.

Now was the perfect opportunity; aside from the former Sect Leader Master Wufa, the remaining authoritative figures were Master Wu Hui and the Third Protector.

Chen Tianlong felt that as long as he controlled them, the Kunlun Sect would fall into his palm.

"I beg Chen Tianlong for mercy; we will serve you dutifully as oxen and horses in the future."

Wu Hui was truly afraid. Originally a man greedy for life and afraid of death, he hoped to be by Master Wuchen’s side to tread on the extreme dao. Now with Wuchen dead, his hope was extinguished, and he only sought to survive.

The Third Protector was Wu Hui’s brother from the time they ascended the mountain together, sharing a bond like hands and feet. The Second Protector was unrelated; if he died, he died.

Seeing Wu Hui kneel, the Third Protector followed suit, doing whatever Wu Hui did.

"Oh? Are you certain you want to follow my commands?"

Chen Tianlong smirked inwardly, knowing these two would soon submit to him; in the face of death, few could remain unfazed. Whether they were sincere was another matter, but at this moment, they were indeed scared.

"Certain, absolutely and eternally sure."

Great Protector Wu Hui just wanted to save his life; after all, aligning with Chen Tianlong and having such a powerful boss as a backer might not be a bad thing.

Previously, they thought Master Wuchen’s power was unrivaled, but now it’s different; Chen Tianlong effortlessly defeated Master Wuchen, so why cling to him?

Chen Tianlong smiled slightly, then said, "Good, I hope you two are sincere. If you follow me and do well, there will be plenty of benefits; I will help you upgrade. Extreme dao is no issue."

"What? Extreme... extreme dao?"

Master Wu Hui couldn’t believe his ears; Chen Tianlong just said he could help them break through to the extreme dao, but was it true? If so, it was far better than following the deceased Wuchen.

Thinking this, the two exchanged glances, clearly agreeing with each other, and nodded before saluting Chen Tianlong, "Thank you, Chen Tianlong, for sparing us."

Chen Tianlong was thrilled at their words, knowing they were drawn by the benefits provided; otherwise, they wouldn’t have surrendered so easily.

The two women nearby noticed the shifting situation and approached Chen Tianlong, extremely surprised to see the Kunlun Sect’s two Great Protectors subdued by their Chen Tianlong.

"Alright, I don’t need much from you two, just manage the Kunlun Sect well and make it serve me." Chen Tianlong shared his thoughts, "As for the elders, you handle them."

"Yes, boss, understood." The two said in unison.

Chen Tianlong nodded, suddenly remembering something and quickly walking back to the stone cave, grabbing the Divine Cauldron, and reaching inside to retrieve a few golden pills.

"Six left, so three were taken by Wu Jun and Kuang Chenggong, tch..." Chen Tianlong became somewhat anxious, blaming himself for letting those two escape with golden pills.

The issue surfaced; soon, Kuang Chenggong would return to challenge him because Chen Tianlong felt that in a few days, Kuang Chenggong would break through the extreme dao. Then, whose strength was stronger was uncertain.

Chen Tianlong felt frustrated, but the situation was as it was; he could only take things one step at a time.

With some time before dusk, Chen Tianlong believed Kuang Chenggong wouldn’t return for another day or two, as he was injured and would certainly heal his wounds before breaking through the extreme dao.

Moreover, Kuang Chenggong was a Grand General who only fought assured battles; he definitely wouldn’t rush in blindly, fearing Chen Tianlong had taken the Kunlun Sect. Showing up alone could lead to being surrounded. Thus, he planned to rally troops for a decisive attack on the Kunlun Sect.

On the other side, Wu Jun had acquired one golden pill, eagerly consuming it before hiding in his home, closed off day and night to break through the extreme dao.

His purpose was clear: to see if he could catch up before Kuang Chenggong’s breakthrough, step ahead of him, and seize the Capital City, allowing his army direct entry to reclaim royal power.

But he miscalculated; Kuang Chenggong wasn’t just fast. After empowering himself, he flew to the Outer Border army to quickly return with 150,000 troops for city defense, shutting the gates, and conducting full vigilance over the Capital City.
