Swish.
In the next moment, that supreme elder moved, his figure vanishing in an instant.
When he reappeared, he was already before Long Tonghe.
His aged palm, hard and powerful like a sharp blade, plunged into Long Tonghe’s body with a squelch.
And when the palm withdrew, in its centre was a spherical object.
That sphere was no larger than a pearl, but in truth, it was a treasure akin to a universe sack.
Only this sphere’s capacity was enormous, far surpassing any universe sack.
Long Shengbu crushed the sphere to powder, and immediately countless treasures floated out.
The sheer number of treasures blotted out the entire void; it was truly a dazzling array.
These were all the treasures that Long Tonghe had amassed over the years.
And among them were three Dragon Vein Origin Stones.
“Supreme Lord, I was wrong; I know I was wrong.”
Caught red-handed, Long Tonghe could not deny it and could only kowtow and beg for mercy.
He even swung his arm to slap his own face repeatedly.
“This subordinate deserves death; this subordinate deserves death.”
As he slapped himself, he cursed himself too.
But this act of his was utterly superfluous, incapable of stirring any sympathy.
“You do indeed deserve death, but in consideration of your kinship, I will not take your life.”
“But death penalty can be spared; living punishment is hard to escape.”
After Long Xiaoxiao said this, she reached out and seized the poison pill from the young master of the Nine Paths Dragon Gate through the air.
“Come, feed this poison pill to Long Tonghe.”
As Long Xiaoxiao spoke, she tossed the pill at random to one of the Long clan members.
And by chance, that person was one of Long Tonghe’s confidants.
Long Xiaoxiao did this deliberately.
But that Long clan member had no choice.
Grasping the poison pill, he walked straight towards Long Tonghe.
Because Long Shengbu’s pressure had already pinned Long Tonghe in place.
So Long Tonghe could not resist at all and could only watch helplessly as his own confidant approached with the poison pill.
“Spare my life, Princess; spare my life, Supreme Elder.”
Long Tonghe could only scream frantically, begging for mercy in his final struggle.
“Long Tonghe, this pill will not take a life; that was what you yourself said.”
“Why cry and wail like this; what a disgrace.”
Long Xiaoxiao said.
But in truth, everyone knew that poison pill was a life-taking one.
He must never have dreamed.
That the poison pill meant to deal with Chu Feng would ultimately fall on him.
Long Tonghe had truly reaped what he sowed.
Soon, that confidant arrived before Long Tonghe, pried open his mouth, and forced the poison pill into it.
As soon as the poison pill entered his mouth, Long Tonghe could no longer even beg for mercy and began emitting heart-rending screams.
That cry was truly harrowing, making anyone who heard it feel ill at ease.
And looking at Long Tonghe made people feel even more unwell.
Long Tonghe’s skin not only rotted away, but a foul stench emanated from his body, green liquid oozing out, wriggling with maggots in the fluid.
“This old bastard is truly vicious enough.”
Seeing Long Tonghe’s current state, Chu Feng could not help cursing inwardly as a beast.
Luckily the Long clan princess had appeared; otherwise, the one suffering such a fate now would be himself.
Accompanying the screams, Long Tonghe tumbled from the void to the ground.
Though wretched, his cries remained vigorous; everyone knew he would not die immediately. He would live long; that poison pill would slowly torment him to death…
But no one dared plead for Long Tonghe.
After all, those present were all preoccupied with their own survival; who would dare concern themselves with Long Tonghe.
“All of you, rise; I will not make things difficult for you.”
Long Xiaoxiao said to the Long clan members.
“Princess, we have sinned.”
But those people dared not stand.
They strutted about daily, but within the Long clan, there was a hierarchy.
Whether Long Shengbu or Long Xiaoxiao.
These were figures they could not even approach in ordinary times.
If they were high and mighty before Long Daozhi and the others.
Then Long Xiaoxiao and Long Shengbu were utterly unattainable to them.
They were existences within the Long clan with power over life and death.
Yet just now, they had actually moved against Long Shengbu and Long Xiaoxiao; was that not courting death.
“I said rise, so rise; the princess is clear on grievances and will not trouble you.”
Long Shengbu said.
“Thank you, Supreme Elder.”
“Thank you, Lord Long Shengbu.”
Though they stood, the Long clan members remained trembling and terrified, not daring the slightest carelessness.
But one group did not rise: the Nine Paths Dragon Gate crowd.
The Nine Paths Dragon Gate people were truly scared half to death.
Some had even fainted from the strain.
Especially the young master of the Nine Paths Dragon Gate; he was so frightened his heart nearly leapt out, his gall bladder on the verge of bursting.
After all, he was the chief culprit in this matter.
He knelt right beside Chu Feng, so Chu Feng could sense his terror most keenly.
Looking at the young master of the Nine Paths Dragon Gate now, curled up on the ground.
Chu Feng could not help recalling the words the young master of the Nine Paths Dragon Gate had said to him earlier.
“It seems your backer is not much either.”
Chu Feng said sarcastically.
Hearing this, the young master of the Nine Paths Dragon Gate suddenly lunged at Chu Feng, clutching his leg and wailing bitterly.
“Young hero, I was wrong; I know I was wrong.”
“I meant no harm; I was forced into it. Spare me, spare me.”
In his desperation, the young master of the Nine Paths Dragon Gate actually begged Chu Feng for mercy.
“Begging me is useless; the one you have offended now is not just me, but the Long clan princess and the Long clan supreme elder.” Chu Feng said.
Though he said this, in truth, even without the Long clan princess.
Chu Feng would absolutely not have spared this Long Shangsong.
“Girl, how should these people be dealt with.”
The Long clan’s supreme elder, Long Shengbu, asked Long Xiaoxiao.
“The Nine Paths Dragon Gate people.”
“A bunch of crooked-hearted lot, disgracing my Long clan bloodline.”
“Kill them all.”
After Long Xiaoxiao said this.
The Long clan members immediately sprang into action.
Grasping weapons, they closed in on the Nine Paths Dragon Gate people.
Amid flashing blades, soon blood rain poured from the void.
In the blink of an eye.
Everyone from the Nine Paths Dragon Gate present was dead.
From the gate master to the young master to the other clansmen, without exception, all perished.
Seeing this scene, everyone’s hearts tightened inwardly; this was truly how fickle the world was.
Who could have thought that the Nine Paths Dragon Gate, basking in glory just moments ago, would in a flash meet their end in the underworld.
But compared to others, what Chu Feng sighed over more was Long Xiaoxiao’s ruthlessness.
Though her true age was certainly more than that of a mere girl.
Chu Feng could tell she was still a junior.
In the eyes of martial cultivators, this was no mere girl; this was a child.
But this Long Xiaoxiao was no ordinary sort.
This was a decisive and ruthless girl.
