"Your poison?"
Long Cangjue's face turned ashen. At this moment, Long Xiaoyun didn't show any signs of being poisoned; he was absolutely at his peak fighting form, especially with the recent execution of the Divine Dragon Tail Swing from the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, performed flawlessly.
Not only was Long Cangjue bewildered, but other strong members of the Long Family were equally shocked by Long Xiaoyun's fighting prowess. Was this the appearance of someone poisoned?
"The poison in my body was already cured three days ago, and it was Xiao Tianyu who found the antidote. Today, since you dare to openly rebel, don't blame me for forgetting our brotherly ties!"
Long Xiaoyun's voice was commanding, stunning who knows how many people's hearts. Could it really be that Long Xiaoyun's poison had been cured?
"Impossible!" Long Cangjue shook his head in disbelief and continued, "You were poisoned with Miaojiang's gu poison, which has no cure, and you only had eight days to live. How could you possibly have been cured?"
Although Long Cangjue said this, as he watched Long Xiaoyun standing there overlooking everything, he knew in his heart that Long Xiaoyun's poison had indeed been cured, otherwise he wouldn't have such strong combat power, suppressing Gongsun Zhi with just one palm strike.
It was with much effort that they managed to poison Long Xiaoyun, intending to force him to step down on the eighth day when his life would end. But they never expected that they would be faced with a fully restored Long Xiaoyun.
Long Xiaoyun not only possesses strong talent but also has mastered the Long Family's foundational cultivation technique, the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms. Furthermore, only the Long Family's head has the right to practice this technique, meaning, currently, Long Xiaoyun is the only one in the Long Family who truly knows the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms.
As for what Long Ling'Er practices, it's naturally just Flowery Fist and Embroidery Legs.
Now, the expressions of the strong members from various families have turned grim. They all know very well why they came today, and that was to witness the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms. However, now, Long Xiaoyun wasn't poisoned at all; would he obediently hand over the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms?
But, having already drawn the bow, there's no turning back now.
"Ladies and gentlemen!" At this moment, Long Cangjue shouted, "Since you have come to the Long Family for the secret cultivation technique of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, I, Long Cangjue, am willing to swear that as long as you assist me in ascending to the position of the Long Family's Clan Leader, I assure you to make the Long Family's Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms available for your enjoyment!"
Long Cangjue is no fool. Now, Long Xiaoyun is at his peak, and without external help, it is he who will die today.
"Are you sure?" the leader of the Qianshan Clan spoke.
"Do you really fear I would dare to deceive you?" Long Cangjue's voice was fierce: "You are the leaders of the various families, do you still not trust me?"
"I doubt you would dare!" A strong member of the Li Family responded, "Now, with the clan leaders of the ten major families of the Imperial Capital gathered here, you dare not withhold it. Since this is the case, Long Xiaoyun, I'm sorry, but you alone are to blame for holding such a precious treasure!"
"In that case, we are willing to help you ascend to the position of Clan Leader!" the Qianmo Clan echoed.
Then, they addressed Long Xiaoyun: "Of course, if Clan Leader Long is willing to hand over the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, we naturally won't make things difficult for you. Would Clan Leader Long be so willing?"
"Dream on!" Long Xiaoyun's voice turned cold: "The Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms is my Long Family's secret art, do you think I'll give you a glimpse? I, Long Xiaoyun, am not so afraid of death to that extent!"
He, Long Xiaoyun, is a man of integrity; how could he be coerced?
Then, Long Xiaoyun's gaze turned to Long Cangjue and continued, "With someone like you in charge, the Long Family is truly unfortunate. Today, I, Long Xiaoyun, shall purge the Long Family's ranks for its own sake!"
Buzz~
As his voice fell, a gust of wind roared, and his imposing momentum surged into the sky. All of a sudden, the entire hall was filled with the sound of a dragon's roar, the Azure Dragon bellowing, domineeringly unparalleled.
Upon seeing this, Long Cangjue, Long Ting... and others hurriedly retreated, their eyes revealing unprecedented fear. Soon after, they gathered with the strong members from the various families.
"Since you all want to take me on, come on over!" Long Xiaoyun's voice was forceful, and the dragon's roar within the hall became even more tumultuous, like a dragon's roar echoing off mountainous peaks, as it instantly seized towards Long Cangjue, the dragon's claw tearing everything apart.
"Long Xiaoyun, why do this?" A strong member of the Zhan Family spoke, "Hand over the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, and we will naturally leave, allowing you to handle the Long Family's affairs. For you, isn't it clear which is more important?"
"Kill!" However, the response to the Zhan Family's strong member was a voice of slaughter, and the Azure Dragon continued to roar, shaking the hall as a Golden Dragon swooped down.
"Courting death!" that Zhan Family strong member coldly snorted, "Heaven-Crushing Technique!"
As he finished speaking, his arm suddenly reached towards Long Xiaoyun. What sort of character was Long Xiaoyun? With a booming sound, bam bam~ that Zhan Family strong member's arm suddenly burst apart, blood splattering everywhere. Before he could even scream, his body was torn apart by the Azure Dragon, leaving no remains.
Seeing this scene, the strong members from other families turned ashen. Long Xiaoyun's Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms was simply extreme to the point of being abnormal. However, the more powerful the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, the more it incited their greed.
Soon, strong members from various families began to form an ironclad circle, trapping Long Xiaoyun in the center, unleashing a momentum capable of destroying everything. Should any below the Saint Heaven Realm participate, they would face certain death.
"Join forces, annihilate him!" The Zhan Family's Clan Leader shouted, unleashing the Heaven-Crushing Technique, encompassing everything. Behind him, an illusory battle dragon appeared, its golden light shining upon Long Xiaoyun.
"Father!" Long Ling'Er's beautiful eyes flickered, revealing a worried expression. Although Long Xiaoyun was strong, facing so many Saint Heaven Realm experts alone, even the strongest could find himself in peril.
"No need to worry, today I shall cleanse the Long Family's ranks!" Long Xiaoyun shouted with unparalleled spirit. In an instant, it seemed as though he donned a golden battle armor, the dragon's roar continuing to resound, breaking through everything.
Bang bang bang~
In an instant, all the golden light enveloping him shattered. Long Xiaoyun's voice was cold: "Hidden Dragon in the Abyss!"
Buzz~
Before the words fell, the Golden Dragon roared out, stirring endless waves, tearing everything apart.
"Humph!" someone coldly snorted. The powerful figures soared forth, raising their hands to attack Long Xiaoyun. Every assault was incredibly terrifying, and for a moment, Long Xiaoyun was once again shrouded.
"Destroy!" Long Xiaoyun coldly snorted, slapping his palms. Huge palm seals resembled incarnations of golden dragons, covering the sky, suppressing everything.
Bang bang bang~
Immediately, all incoming attacks turned to ashes, the hall continuously trembling.
Seeing this, the powerful members from various families wore cold expressions, and they simultaneously charged at Long Xiaoyun, intending to surround him once more. Only in this way could they prevent Long Xiaoyun from wielding the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms.
"Long Cangjue, the decision you've made today will inevitably lead to the downfall of the Long Family. Someone like you is not fit to be the Clan Leader of the Long Family!" Long Xiaoyun roared, his aura sweeping forward, directly targeting Long Cangjue.
