Everyone was instantly enraged when they heard that provocation. That person really was malicious.
“Are you an idiot? If my boss can’t come here, then what are you doing here?” Long Ziwei immediately responded.
Considering Long Chen’s status, responding at all to some random person would clearly be lowering himself too much, so Long Ziwei had decided to take over.
“Who do you think you are?! You aren’t qualified to speak here!” retorted that voice angrily.
Long Ziwei sneered disdainfully. “Who I am isn’t important. What’s important is that I dare to stand atop the High Firmament Academy’s flying boat. As for you, you only dare to spout crap from the shadows. You don’t even dare to reveal your face, yet you dare to speak so arrogantly?”
Whoever it was, the speaker did have some ability. His voice drifted through the air in a strange manner; echoes rang out from all directions, and even Long Chen was unable to pinpoint what flying boat he was on. It was due to this ability that he dared to speak up. But clearly, he didn’t have the ability to actually face Long Chen.
“Hmph, when a karmic luck dragon manifestation appeared over the first academy, the major forces didn’t make a move. But now that a karmic luck dragon manifestation has appeared elsewhere, you lead an army over? Long Chen, don’t you feel embarrassed?”
“How impudent! Do you think you can say my young master’s name with your dirty mouth?” Miao Yin suddenly said. At the same time, she formed a hand seal, and one of the distant battleships shuddered. Startled cries rang out, followed by a flustered roar.
“How dare you?! It was just an argument, and you killed him?!”
This roar came from an expert who had touched the threshold of the Heavenly Sovereign realm. His roar displayed both fury and killing intent, but it also contained a hint of fear. Clearly, the person who had been provoking them was really dead or at least critically injured; otherwise, this elder wouldn’t have been so flustered.
Of course, as Miao Yin and Zi Yan were both masters of the Music Dao, their control over sound waves had reached the pinnacle. Just because Long Chen was unable to trace the heckler’s voice did not mean that they couldn’t.
“Hmph, that was just a warning. Don’t end up losing everyone on your battleship because of one person’s foolishness!” snapped Miao Yin coldly.
“You’re going too far!” The elder was outraged. Miao Yin’s attitude put him in a tough spot. To back down now would be a huge loss of face now, but naturally, he didn’t dare to actually attack.
The others on the battleship were all terrified that Long Chen might attack them in his fury. If he actually decided to attack, there was nowhere they could run. In fact, they were already holding a grudge against that comrade of theirs who had thought himself smart enough to trick Long Chen! He might have just dragged them all down with him!
“If you’re going to attack, hurry up. Otherwise, scram. If you keep acting like you care about morals, don’t blame me for being vicious!” said Long Chen. He was clearly expressing his support for Miao Yin’s attitude towards them.
Long Chen knew that if they were to concede here, more people would try to use morality to bind him. When it came to such a thing, he had to show a firm stance.
“Miao Yin, next time, don’t be so nice. When you kill the junior, you can also kill the senior! The first academy needs to set the rules of this new era,” said Long Chen.
“Thank you for your guidance, Young Master!” Miao Yin bowed. The two of them played off of each other perfectly. Their serious expressions almost made Zi Yan burst into laughter.
“Set the rules of the new era?! What arrogance! Alright, let me see if your High Firmament Academy is really capable of setting the rules in the Sovereign Emperor Heaven! Or perhaps you mean to set rules for the entire human race?” echoed another voice. This voice was ancient and filled with dense Sovereign might.
“A half-step Heavenly Sovereign!”
Startled cries rang out. The voice alone was enough for them to determine that this expert had reached the peak.
Most of the forces here were led by experts who had merely touched the threshold of the Heavenly Sovereign realm. Not just every sect could have a half-step Heavenly Sovereign, and even if they did have one, that person would be the central pillar of their sect, and would be required to stay in the sect’s main estate. They couldn’t possibly leave for such a thing. In other words, if a half-step Heavenly Sovereign was leading one of these groups, then whatever sect had sent him had at least one more person with the same cultivation.
Half-step Heavenly Sovereigns stood at the very peak. Even a single one was enough to bring their sect to the very forefront of this era
“Little fellow, you’re thinking too small. My High Firmament Academy is setting the rules for all the nine heavens and ten lands!” announced Long Chen.
“How arrogant! Hmph, then why don’t you let us hear what these new rules are?” sneered that elder.
“It’s very simple: The rules are whatever I say they are!” declared Long Chen.
“Hahaha!”
The elder laughed like this was the funniest joke he had ever heard. After he was finally done laughing, he spat out, “I’ve lived countless years and seen many arrogant people. But you are definitely a first.”
“All that means is that your years of living were wasted under a rock,” replied Long Chen.
“You…” Flames of fury practically burst out of the elder.
“Yes, me. See, now you’re looking at me the proper way. You’re looking at me as if you want to kill me, but you don’t dare to. Hahaha, go ahead and try it if you want! Let’s see if I am capable of setting rules for you!”
“Hmph, we’ll see!”
In the end, the elder really didn’t dare to attack. His battleship lit up and shot off. Clearly, he did not wish to travel alongside Long Chen any longer.
“It seems he plans on rushing there and telling them about us. By the time we get there, he might have gotten many groups to target us,” said Miao Yin, eyeing the direction those people had left in.
“Do you know who that was?” asked Long Chen.
Miao Yin shook her head. “Their battleship was disguised, and I can’t tell their identity based on the voice alone. Well, if we meet that man again….”
Long Chen shrugged. “That’s fine. Hmph, a gutless coward who doesn’t even dare to reveal his name isn’t worth caring about. If any blind fools try to stop us, I don’t mind starting a massacre.”
Miao Yin had an urge to say something, but she swallowed her words. She actually liked Long Chen’s style. She was looking forward to acting in this kind of fearless manner. However, this would affect countless innocent people as well. Killing them all would probably cause public outrage.
Long Chen knew what she was thinking, but he didn’t say anything either. He just leaned back on his chair and closed his eyes.
There were quite a few flying boats they encountered on the way. Seeing so many of them flying together, they joined them. They didn’t go around or try to accelerate past them.
As time passed, they quickly gathered a group of over a thousand flying boats and battleships. Some of them were not friendly at all; they used their divine sense to scan Long Chen’s ship, which was outright rude.
Miao Yin didn’t plan on starting a fight right now, so she didn’t respond. But as more and more people began to scan their flying boat, her expression started to grow ugly. She wanted to avoid trouble, but as a result of her enduring their rudeness, those people began to act even more impudently. Even someone as patient as her was starting to get angry.
As expected, you couldn’t tolerate certain things, or people would continue taking advantage of you. Taking one step back meant being pushed back further and further. Over a hundred different flying boats had now scanned their flying boat without regard to their face. This was definitely a provocation!
“Now do you understand?” asked Long Chen, his eyes still closed.
Miao Yin nodded.
Suddenly, Long Ziwei cried out in shock. “What the hell is that?!”
Everyone hastily looked ahead to see a veritable sea of flying boats up ahead.
