Long Yeyue Arrives, Arrogant and Overbearing

He walked up to Yu Guanzhi, clasped his hands behind his back, and slightly raised his chin as he looked down at the Central Legion commander in his general's uniform.

"Commander Yu."

"You're still a member of the Yu Family, after all."

"Why are you hanging around with that mud-legged Chen Yu?"

"Aren't you afraid of disgracing yourself?"

His tone was frivolous and cutting.

His eyes brimmed with contempt, as though the man before him was not a general commanding thousands upon thousands of troops, but a servant he could mock at will.

Yu Guanzhi paid him no heed.

He did not even spare this disciple from a branch line a glance.

A disciple of this caliber was not worthy of an answer from him.

He merely stood there, calmly watching the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan estate with an expressionless face.

Two officers with cultivation at the rank of seven-ringed Soul Saints immediately stepped out from behind Yu Guanzhi.

Their steps were steady and their presence imposing as they approached the branch disciple from either side.

Before the disciple could react, two large hands had already clamped down on his shoulders.

Blue lightning burst forth from the disciple's body.

But the next instant...

It was directly suppressed by even more powerful Soul Power.

The two Soul Saint-level officers showed no mercy. They twisted the branch disciple's arms behind his back and dragged him away under escort.

The disciple struggled and cursed, his voice growing fainter and fainter until he was stuffed into a military soul-guided vehicle and taken away for detention.

In an instant, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan erupted in fury!

Deep within the estate...

Several powerful waves of Soul Power shot into the sky.

The clan elders had sensed the disturbance outside and released their auras one after another as a warning and expression of rage.

The elders strode out of the main hall. Some had their beards and hair bristling, while lightning flashed in the eyes of others. Every one of them looked livid.

They stood beneath the gatehouse, confronting the Central Legion beyond the gates. Angry denunciations rose one after another.

"Yu Guanzhi! You have betrayed the great clans and aided a tyrant!"

"Chen Yu is nothing but a mud-legged commoner. He knows neither rank nor propriety, yet he dares lay hands on our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan!"

"Your Yu Family has been a prestigious household for generations. How could it produce a traitor like you who has forgotten his roots?"

The furious curses passed through the gates and rang clearly outside.

Yet Yu Guanzhi remained expressionless, and the soldiers did not move an inch.

Then Yu Yuanxiao, the current clan head of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, stepped out.

He was tall and broad, with blue hair draped over his shoulders. His features were stern and dignified, while faint lightning crackled around him.

He stood among the elders with a gloomy expression, but unlike the others, he did not lose his composure and rage.

He merely raised a hand to silence the clamor before speaking calmly.

"I have contacted Shrek Academy."

"Shrek Academy will have Supreme Elder Long Yeyue come and seek justice for us."

The elders immediately revealed delighted expressions upon hearing this.

After all, Long Yeyue was also a member of their Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and she was their senior.

She was the Light and Dark Douluo.

She was Shrek Academy's Supreme Elder.

She was one of the most powerful Limit Douluos on the continent.

With her stepping forward, no matter how arrogant Chen Yu and Yu Guanzhi were, they would have to think twice.

For a time, the anger and unease from before vanished completely, replaced by absolute confidence.

The elders straightened their backs even further, their expressions shifting from furious rage to haughty pride.

They seemed to have already seen Chen Yu and Yu Guanzhi lowering their heads in apology, and the Central Legion retreating in disgrace.

Yu Yuanxiao said nothing more and turned back into the estate.

The elders behind him gradually dispersed as well, leaving only a few guards inside the gatehouse to confront the Central Legion outside through the gates.

The vermilion gates of the estate slowly closed, releasing a heavy rumble.

Their unhurried manner made the vast army outside seem no more threatening than paper tigers.

Yu Guanzhi merely sighed softly and looked with pity at the slowly closing gates of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

Frogs at the bottom of a well, unaware of the height of the heavens and the vastness of the earth.

He stood at the very front of the army, his uniform immaculate.

As a member of a great clan himself, he knew all too well the arrogance and shortsightedness ingrained in these ancient families.

They believed their ten-thousand-year foundation would protect them.

They believed the Light and Dark Douluo, Long Yeyue, had their backs.

They believed the pressure of public opinion would be enough to force the chairman to bow his head.

But they had forgotten...

What methods the chairman had relied on to subdue the Eight Great Legions during his years in the military.

He was not a man who could be bound by personal relationships or worldly conventions.

He was a true iron-blooded figure.

Today, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan was destined to suffer this catastrophic disaster.

Yet Yu Guanzhi did not order the soldiers to attack.

He merely raised his hand in a stopping gesture, and the army behind him remained perfectly still where it stood.

He waited quietly for Long Yeyue's arrival.

He believed the chairman was waiting as well, waiting for that old hen to fly out of Shrek's nest.

Time passed second by second.

The sun sank westward, and dusk closed in from all sides.

Soon...

A streak of interwoven light and darkness appeared on the horizon.

It was a shooting radiance.

One half was black as ink, while the other was brilliant as daylight. The two utterly different lights entwined in an eerie fashion, tearing through the Heavenly Screen of dusk.

Its speed was astonishing.

One moment, it was still at the horizon.

The next, it had drawn near.

In the blink of an eye, Long Yeyue appeared above the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

She stood in the air, silver hair flowing in the wind, her dark robe snapping loudly around her.

Her aged face was full of majesty. Her cloudy yet sharp eyes looked down upon the Central Legion below with lofty disdain.

Soul Power of light and darkness circulated around her. The pressure of a Limit Douluo spread out almost tangibly, causing the Central Legion's ordinary soldiers to involuntarily retreat half a step.

At that moment, she looked down arrogantly upon Yu Guanzhi and the Central Legion as though they were a swarm of insignificant ants.

Meanwhile, Yu Yuanxiao, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's clan head, and the elders all emerged from the estate.

They hurried beneath Long Yeyue, bowed in unison, and saluted her with respectful expressions. Their voices were loud and orderly.

"We pay respects to the clan elder."

Long Yeyue casually waved a hand, as though it were the most ordinary matter in the world.

Her gaze remained fixed on Yu Guanzhi. Her aged voice was not loud, yet it spread clearly across the entire area.

"Since this old woman has come..."

"Then Chen Yu will not be allowed to act so arrogantly!"

"After all, under this Federation's heavens..."

"Chen Yu does not have the final say!"

The elders all chimed in, talking over one another as they condemned Chen Yu for not knowing his place.

Some said the chairman had no respect for his elders. Some said he had broken the rules. Some said he would sooner or later suffer retribution.

Their voices rose and fell without end.

Each of them spoke with righteous indignation, as though Chen Yu had committed some utterly unforgivable crime.
