Chapter 1719 The Man Behind the Dragon Gate!
He retreated more than ten meters before he stabilized his footing.
At this moment, Chen Xuan finally saw clearly that the attacker was a young man in a blue shirt holding a folding fan. His aura had reached the late stage of the Mahayana realm.
Who was this guy?
"Sect Master, you've finally arrived. This kid's strength is beyond our expectations!" Tian Yi Dao Ren said quickly.
Sect Master?
The Dragon Gate Sect Master?
Chen Xuan was quite surprised, not expecting the Dragon Gate Sect Master to be a young man.
"So young?" Chen Xuan frowned.
The sloppy Daoist said, "Young? Some old guys like to maintain their appearance and look very young, but they are actually hundreds of years old!"
"Could this also be an old monster?" Chen Xuan muttered.
The Dragon Gate Sect Master waved his hand, signaling Tian Yi Dao Ren to step down.
He strode towards Chen Xuan. When he was still four or five meters away, he stopped and looked at Chen Xuan, "Chen Xuan, you've ruined my Dragon Gate's business several times!"
"Is that so? I don't recall. Did that happen?"
Chen Xuan pretended to be ignorant.
Speaking of which, his connection with the Dragon Gate was deep. From the very beginning, he had been in contention with the Dragon Gate. From Jiangzhou, to the provincial capital, and then to the capital, no matter where he went, there were traces of the Dragon Gate.
"Are you playing dumb with me?"
"I am indeed very foolish. If I weren't foolish, why would I be here now?"
Chen Xuan said indifferently, "Dragon Gate Sect Master, stop talking nonsense. What do you want to discuss with me?"
"How do you know I want to discuss something with you, rather than kill you?"
The Dragon Gate Sect Master asked curiously.
"If you wanted to kill me, wouldn't you have done it long ago?"
Chen Xuan smiled and winked at the sloppy Daoist.
The sloppy Daoist understood.
Chen Xuan was telling him to prepare to make a move and deal with the Dragon Gate Sect Master together.
Although his strength was far inferior to the Dragon Gate Sect Master, if Chen Xuan attacked from the front and he launched a sneak attack, there was still a good chance.
The Dragon Gate Sect Master said, "How about you join my Dragon Gate and work for me?"
"Work on what?"
Chen Xuan did not expect the Dragon Gate Sect Master to invite him to join.
"Naturally, it's for the object of longevity. If you help my Dragon Gate find that object of longevity, I can guarantee that you will also obtain eternal life!"
The Dragon Gate Sect Master said with a smile, tempting him.
But Chen Xuan shook his head.
"What? Are the terms not satisfactory?"
Chen Xuan said, "I have so many confidantes. If only I were immortal and watched them die before me, that would not do."
Living forever is not necessarily a good thing.
"What do you want?"
"Can you make all my confidantes immortal? Believe it or not?"
Upon hearing this condition, the Dragon Gate Sect Master's face darkened, "You..."
Chen Xuan continued, interrupting the Dragon Gate Sect Master, "Oh, right, and my old Huang is also very important to me. In the long years, without its company, I would be very bored."
"Old Huang? Who is that?"
"My guard dog."
"Dog?"
"Yes, Old Huang has been guarding the house for many years and is very important to me!"
"Enough!"
Before Chen Xuan could finish speaking, the Dragon Gate Sect Master roared and stopped Chen Xuan from speaking further.
"Kid, are you f***ing playing with me?"
The Dragon Gate Sect Master said angrily.
"Playing with you? I'm just telling the truth. If you're unwilling to agree, then that's that. There's nothing more to discuss. Alas, what a pity!"
Chen Xuan sighed helplessly.
He winked at the sloppy Daoist.
"Kid, do you know the consequences of not agreeing to me?"
"Consequences? What consequences!"
"Not only will I kill you, but I will also kill all of you!"
"Is that so? I don't think so!"
Chen Xuan smiled sinisterly.
At this moment, Tian Yi Dao Ren shouted, "Sect Master, be careful, someone is trying to sneak attack you!"
The Dragon Gate Sect Master turned his head sharply.
The sloppy Daoist had already activated countless talismans and hurled them at himself. Wind, fire, thunder, lightning, and all sorts of terrifying energies bombarded the Dragon Gate Sect Master.
"Are mere tricks enough to deal with me?"
The Dragon Gate Sect Master waved his sleeve, forming a mighty barrier that blocked the rushing talismans.
The talismans had no effect on it.
The sloppy Daoist was unfazed and chuckled coldly, "You can block him, but can you block Chen Xuan?"
"Bust!"
The Dragon Gate Sect Master's face changed greatly. When he turned around, Chen Xuan, holding the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi, had already thrust his sword, piercing fiercely into the Dragon Gate Sect Master's chest.
The Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi generated a powerful devouring force, absorbing the Dragon Gate Sect Master's vital blood. In an instant, the Dragon Gate Sect Master became extremely weak.
"Dragon Gate Sect Master, you are defeated!"
Seeing this, Chen Xuan breathed a sigh of relief.
The Dragon Gate Sect Master was nothing now.
The Dragon Gate Sect Master said, "Hmph, kid, you'd better let me go, or you'll die a terrible death!"
"Make me die a terrible death? You are already a fish on the chopping board. Do you think you can still make any waves?" Chen Xuan chuckled disdainfully.
"Behind me is an ancient great figure, someone on par with the ancestor of the Hun family and the founder of the Xuan Sect. I am his spokesperson. If you kill me, he will definitely not let you go!"
The Dragon Gate Sect Master gritted his teeth, his words full of threats.
Upon hearing this, a thought flashed through Chen Xuan's mind.
That was...
Damn it, another ancient figure has appeared!!
"Oh? Who is behind you? Don't try to scare me. Do you think I was scared into being born?" Chen Xuan scoffed.
He just wanted to know who was behind the other party.
The Dragon Gate Sect Master said, "It's not a problem to tell you. The person behind me is the ancient figure Changcang Yonghua from the Land of the Rising Sun!"
"Changcang Yonghua? Isn't that Wuji's lover?"
Chen Xuan was full of confusion upon hearing this.
"I didn't expect you to have heard of that figure. Let me tell you, he is only one step away from becoming an immortal. If you don't want to die, surrender immediately!"
Chen Xuan fiercely thrust the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi, cutting off the Dragon Gate Sect Master's head, "Noisy!"
The Dragon Gate Sect Master's head rolled on the ground like a watermelon, his eyes wide open, dying with an injustice!
The sloppy Daoist said, "Chen Xuan, there's something strange about this matter!"
"I can see that too. We went to Wuji's tomb and managed to retreat safely. This is too strange."
"What is going on?"
"Could it be that Changcang Yonghua deliberately let us enter? And even let us obtain the three divine artifacts in the Land of the Rising Sun. Is he trying to use us? But what is there for him to use us for?"
Chen Xuan frowned.
"No, it's not using us, it's using you!"
"Me?"
"That's right!"
"He gave you the three divine artifacts, and even led you into Wuji's tomb. He should be trying to get you to help him find that object of longevity, so that he can revive Wuji!" the sloppy Daoist's eyes flickered.
In fact, the sloppy Daoist's guess was not wrong. Changcang Yonghua also had this goal.
Because Changcang Yonghua originally founded the Dragon Gate with the intention of gathering the ancient jade to enter Wuwang Mountain and obtain that object of longevity, but he was unable to gather it for a long time. Moreover, Changcang Yonghua felt that the Dragon Gate was too unreliable, and the Dragon Gate Sect Master had betrayed him in secret, so he wanted to use Chen Xuan to help him obtain the object of longevity.
