Shock

The news of the Furious Dragon Legion crossing the void and returning from the outer realm spread throughout the entire Dragon City!

“What? The Furious Dragon Legion has successfully returned from the outer realm?”

“That’s great. With the Furious Dragon Legion around, we citizens can rest easy and not worry about the arrival of monsters.”

“The Furious Dragon Legion has already been out in the outer realms for more than half a year. I almost thought that they had all fallen.”

The people of Dragon City cheered, their hearts finally settled.

At the same time, the news of the Furious Dragon Legion’s safe return also reached the ears of the eight great families.

“Damn Lu Benwei, it’s all your fault!”

Zhu Haitian, the head of the Zhu family, was extremely furious. Anger burst out from his seven orifices.

“My lord, please calm down. Compared to Lu Benwei, we should think about how to bear the wrath of the Furious Dragon Legion,” a servant said in a trembling voice.

“After all, we were the ones who proposed the plan to trap the Furious Dragon Legion and send them to the outer realms.”

Zhu Haitian’s expression turned cold, and he immediately said, “Quickly contact the other seven families and hold a meeting.”

“Yes, sir!”

On the other side, in the Qi family mansion.

This was an extremely classic dragon-style manor. It was decorated with green bricks and black tiles.

“That’s what happened.”

“Chu Tianxiong and Lu Benwei have successfully crossed the void and returned to the camp of the Furious Dragon Legion,” a servant bowed and said to Qi Wen.

Qi Wen was originally in the pavilion, happily sipping tea with a few old friends. When he heard the news that Lu Benwei and the Furious Dragon Legion had successfully returned, he felt unwell. “Damn Lu Benwei! Damn Chu Tianxiong! Why are you guys so persistent?”

At this moment, another servant came to report, “The rest of the Qi family’s heads invited you for a meeting.”

Qi Wen’s eyes narrowed, and the anger in his heart dissipated by more than half. “Where’s the location?”

As soon as he finished speaking, the Zhu family and the Yan family arrived first. Their interests were the same for the time being.

Different from the Zhu, Qi, and Yan families, the other five families had an ambiguous attitude toward Lu Benwei.

As for the Zhu and Qi families, they had a blood feud with Lu Benwei. The Yan family wanted to take back the artifact, the Bronze Temple, that belonged to their ancestor!

Then, the other five families arrived one after another. They were the Ma, Jiang, Chen, Dongfang, and Wenren families.

In the Qi family’s living room, the eight families sat around a mahogany round table. A few lights that were as bright as dusk reflected the expressions on the eight people’s faces. They were depressed, angry, and calm.

The head of the Wenren family, Wenren Fei, had a rough appearance. His voice was sonorous and deep, like a huge bell exploding in people’s ears.

“I say, everyone, let’s not waste time. If you have any ideas, just say them out loud. Everything can be discussed!”

He was a level-90 king, and his battle prowess was immense. When he spoke, his eyes seemed to be burning with flames!

“If we don’t get rid of Chu Tianxiong, it will be difficult for our plan to proceed,” someone said. His voice was cold and eerie, making people shudder.

The other family heads nodded in agreement. They reached a rare consensus on eliminating the Furious Dragon Legion.

“What is their attitude toward our plan?”

Ma Tenghua, the head of the Ma family, who was sitting in the innermost part of the living room, opened his eyes faintly. He was wearing a pair of thick gold-rimmed glasses, and his eyes were deep and seemed to be serious and thoughtful. When he spoke just now, his thick glasses emitted a cold light.

“What else can we do? We’ve sent people to negotiate many times, but they either closed the door and refused guests, or that broom chased our people out,” a family head said unhappily.

Ma Tenghua heaved a sigh of relief and pondered for a moment. “We can ignore those people for now. The main thing is to think of a way to get rid of Chu Tianxiong. After all, Chu Tianxiong is the only one with an army, and he also has a large population base.”

Some of the clan heads nodded. They had always agreed to get rid of Chu Tianxiong. However, some family heads were very disdainful. For example, the family head of the Wenren family, Wenren Fei. He clenched his fist and knocked on the table.

“After talking for so many days, you’re still talking nonsense. It’s true that we’ll get rid of Chu Tianxiong. We’ve already tried using someone else’s knife to kill him. We’ve completely shed all pretense of cordiality with him, so what should we do next?”

The scene was so silent that one could hear a pin drop.

Ma Tenghua, the head of the Ma family, rested his elbows on the armrests of the chair, his two fingers pressed against each other as if he was deep in thought.

The other seven families’ heads also frowned and pondered.

“In my opinion, we might as well lead our armies into Swallow Dragon Mountain and kill Chu Tianxiong.” Wenren Fei was a little impatient. He did not want to think about it, so he shouted.

Swallow Dragon Mountain was the encampment of the Furious Dragon Legion. The terrain was dangerous, and the mysterious Swallow Dragon Secret Realm was in the Swallow Dragon Mountain Range. The Furious Dragon Legion was responsible for protecting Dragon Capital and suppressing the Swallow Dragon Secret Realm.

When Wenren Fei said this, many family heads frowned slightly.

“Brother Wenren, you’re attacking Swallow Dragon Mountain so brazenly. Let’s not talk about whether we can succeed or not. What about our next plan?”

“Brother Wenren, the most important thing in our plan is to win the hearts of the people!” Ma Tenghua laughed.

Wenren Fei’s thoughtless words made everyone laugh in their hearts. However, no one dared to show it.

Wenren Fei was the strongest of the eight family leaders. Even among the kings of the eight great families, his strength was at the top. He was also the only one who relied on his strength to become the family head.

Wenren Fei was stunned. He sat back down and cursed, “Old Ma, I’m simple-minded. You’re smart. What should we do?”

“I was just thinking about it. Since Chu Tianxiong and his Furious Dragon Legion have hearts, we’ll just destroy him.”

Ma Tenghua’s gaze was sharp, and his lenses reflected a vast white light.

“I remember there was a religious organization not long ago. The God Welcoming Association, right? Can you help me contact them?”

“Old Ma, what are you trying to do?”

“The God Welcoming Association ceremony has already been confirmed to be a conspiracy among the monsters.”

Ma Tenghua chuckled and shook his head. “Nothing. I just feel that this welcoming ceremony is a little interesting. Maybe they’re on the same side as us.”

Everyone swallowed their saliva, feeling that Ma Tenghua’s laughter was particularly sinister and terrifying.

“Leave this matter to me. The meeting is over. Is there anything else that you want to add?”

Zhu Haitian, Qi Wen, and the Yan family heads exchanged glances. “There’s one more thing.”
