"Who exactly are you?"
In the next moment, an elderly man with a white beard and hair, clothed in a golden robe, flew out from the depths of the Long Family. Simultaneously, two other elders with imposing auras landed beside him, one on the left and the other on the right.
These three were the three Superior level powerhouses of the Long Family, the main pillars that enabled the Long Family to maintain its status as one of the top families in the Dragon Sword Mansion.
The golden-robed elder in the center had eyes filled with fury, but given that Muu God Monarch demonstrated the ability to instantly kill the Dragon Family Master, he dared not act rashly despite his anger.
"Our Long Family has no prior acquaintance with you, and we don’t recall ever offending you. You come here in the dead of night and even kill our Family Master. Isn’t this a bit too unreasonable?"
The Long Family Ancestor stared intently at Muu God Monarch with deep wariness in his gaze.
"Hmph, since when has our Evil Valley ever talked reason?"
Muu God Monarch burst into laughter, "If you want to blame someone, blame your past offenses to my newly accepted disciple!"
"Evil... Evil Valley?"
The faces of the Long Family martial artists immediately changed greatly.
Evil Valley is notorious in the West Sword Domain. Although it hasn’t been active in over a century, even the likes of the Three Great Sword Mansions dare not underestimate it at all when mentioned.
Especially the Valley Master of Evil Valley, Muu God Monarch.
Three hundred years ago, Muu God Monarch fought against the nine family ancestors of Du Yue Heaven Palace, only losing by half a move.
Now, three hundred years later, the power of Muu God Monarch is probably even more...
The Long Family Ancestor’s face stiffened as he studied Muu God Monarch’s features for a moment, eventually coming to a shocking conclusion.
This person is probably the master of Evil Valley, Muu God Monarch!
"Muu... Muu Valley Master!"
The Long Family Ancestor’s face changed greatly, and his whole body began to tremble severely. How could he dare think of avenging the Dragon Family Master now? Trembling, he said, "Our Long Family does not know how we have offended your disciple. I implore the Valley Master to speak plainly. If it’s truly our Long Family’s mistake, this old man is willing to compensate fully!"
"Oh?"
Muu God Monarch squinted his eyes and looked at the Long Family Ancestor. Unexpectedly, this old man was so cowardly that he lost interest in taking action.
"Dear disciple, since this grudge is yours, I’ll leave the Long Family for you to handle. If you wish to kill them, I, as your master, will start with these old men. But if you want to resolve this by other means, I’ll follow your lead too."
Muu God Monarch turned to glance at Ling Feng, patting his shoulder lightly.
Ling Feng secretly laughed bitterly in his heart. In this world, indeed, the biggest fist is the hardest truth.
As long as your power is strong enough, you can do as you please!
"Allow this disciple to think carefully."
Ling Feng took a deep breath. Given Muu God Monarch’s personality, he is not an inherently brutal and bloodthirsty person but is certainly true to his word.
If he were to say the word "kill," Muu God Monarch could indeed wipe out the entire Long Family leaving no trace.
However, Ling Feng himself did not harbor such a strong urge to kill.
He and the Long Family indeed had grudges, having killed several of their main disciples and a Saint Level powerhouse, setting them on a path of mutual destruction.
However, there were also old, young, women and children in the Long Family, completely innocent.
After spending some time in Evil Valley, he slowly came to understand that slaughter could only bring momentary satisfaction, leaving behind only more emptiness.
If it wasn’t absolutely necessary, Ling Feng did not want to commit further acts of murder.
"Young hero, I don’t know when our Long Family offended you, but this old man will surely give you an explanation!"
The Long Family Ancestor adopted a respectful demeanor, as the fate of the Long Family now hung on Ling Feng’s decision.
"If I don’t make things clear, it seems you all may die with unanswered questions."
Ling Feng stepped forward, staring coldly at the Long Family Ancestor, and said icily, "I am Ling Feng!"
"Ling...Ling Feng?"
The people of the Long Family looked at each other in bewilderment. Most of them hadn’t heard this name before.
But shortly thereafter, someone exclaimed, "Isn’t he the one who killed Ao Tian (Long Aotian) and Teng Yuan (Long Tengyuan) in Sunset Ancient City?"
"Later, our Long Family sent the Sky Dragon Sword Saint along with several other family elites, only for them to fall in the Eastern Spirit Domain due to this boy!"
Most of these events were known among the upper echelons of the Long Family. They had been planning to seek revenge in the Eastern Spirit Domain but were hindered by Du Yue Heaven Palace.
Under the pressure of Du Yue Heaven Palace, Dragon Sword Mansion didn’t respond to the Long Family’s request to retaliate in the Eastern Spirit Domain, yet the Long Family was relentless, persistently attempting to deal with Ling Feng.
However, over half a year ago, they heard that Ling Feng had been sealed by the Demon Clan’s Young Master, his whereabouts unknown, and presumably dead.
They were initially elated, believing they had resolved a major issue effortlessly, only for the news of Ling Feng’s strong return to surface a little over a month ago.
This news inevitably poured cold water over the Long Family.
They hadn’t yet figured out how to deal with Ling Feng when he unexpectedly came knocking on their door.
"Ling...Young Master Ling, about this matter...this matter..."
The Long Family Ancestor swallowed hard, cold sweat forming on his forehead, knowing this feud was difficult to resolve.
"Although what happened is already in the past, and your Long Family harbored no good intentions, I emerged unharmed while you suffered repeated losses. As long as you vow not to trouble me or the East Spirit Immortal Pond again, we can let bygones be bygones."
Ling Feng fixed his gaze on the Long Family Ancestor and said in a deep voice.
"Of course! Of course!"
The Long Family Ancestor felt as if he had received a pardon and immediately swore, "I swear, from this day forth, we will never take action against you or the East Spirit Immortal Pond! Any member of our Long Family who breaks this oath will be met with divine and earthly punishment!"
"Good."
Ling Feng nodded in agreement to this oath.
"That’s all?"
Muu God Monarch glanced at Ling Feng, "Dear disciple, I don’t often step in for others, isn’t this too easy on them?"
Before Muu God Monarch could finish, the Long Family Ancestor quickly added, "Previously, our Long Family repeatedly offended Young Master Ling, naturally, we should compensate. Quickly, Third Elder, take stock of the Long Family’s inventory and bring out the three most precious treasures for the Young Master!"
Ling Feng secretly found it amusing, so this is the famed Dragon Sword Mansion, the Long Family, after all.
Strength!
In this world, strength ultimately speaks the loudest.
Even if the Long Family Ancestor could crush him with a punch, with Muu God Monarch standing behind him, someone like the Long Family Ancestor has to bow and scrape before him.
As for the Dragon Family Master, he died for nothing.
Before long, the Third Elder fearfully brought over three glowing treasures, the dragon family’s hidden wealth, given away to ensure the family’s peace.
"These are not bad, I’ll accept them!"
Muu God Monarch waved his sleeve, collecting the three treasures, then swaggered away with Ling Feng.
