The leader of the Hall Master of Subduing Tiger stood with his hands behind his back, his right hand clenched tightly, channeling his inner energy to alleviate the violent force. He thought to himself, "This kid's brute strength is truly domineering! His strength alone is equivalent to 40,000 jin. He truly lives up to his reputation as the Draconic Elephant Prajna!"
Seeing this, the Hall Master of Subduing Dragon curled his lip and whispered, "Trying to save face at all costs!"
The Hall Master of Subduing Tiger twitched his ears slightly, immediately taking in what he had said, and angrily retorted, "Jianglong! What are you saying? If you're so capable, then do it yourself, stop spouting nonsense!"
Upon hearing Hall Master of Subduing Dragon snorted coldly, "I'll do it! Jue Kong, brat! Let me see how much progress you've made in learning the Subduing Dragon Demon Quelling Staff!"
Li Changfeng slowly got up and said solemnly, "Master! I'm coming!"
Li Changfeng unleashed his full power of true energy, unleashing the first move of the [Subduing Dragon Demon Quelling Staff], "Dragon Travels the World." Streams of fierce true energy condensed within the staff. Holding the staff with both hands, he turned his body and suddenly swung the staff horizontally in a powerful strike.
He suddenly unleashed a golden dragon staff that stretched for fifty feet, soaring through the sky like a raging dragon, fiercely attacking the Hall Master of Subduing Dragon. Wherever it passed, the air exploded and twisted, creating a series of cracking sounds, its power extremely ferocious!
"Boom!"
A fierce whooshing sound rang out as Li Changfeng's golden dragon staff suddenly thrust out, transforming into a golden raging dragon that instantly rushed towards the chest of the Hall Master of Subduing Dragon, about to crash into him.
The Hall Master of Subduing Dragon narrowed his eyes, his right hand formed a claw, and he suddenly struck out a blur, grabbing directly onto the head of the mad dragon.
The Hall Master of Subduing Dragon took a step forward and exerted his strength, forcibly crushing the golden dragon into an explosion. The dragon turned into a wisp of golden true energy and dissipated in the air. A fierce force also sent Li Changfeng flying, slamming him hard onto the ground. His strength was extremely formidable!
At this moment, the Hall Master of Subduing Dragon also stood with his hands behind his back, his right hand clenched tightly. He suddenly poured a surge of true energy into his hand to relieve the soreness and numbness. He thought to himself, "Good lad! His staff technique is not very good, but his strength is terrifying. Is this the Draconic Elephant Prajna? It is indeed domineering!"
The Hall Master of Subduing Tiger was extremely disdainful upon seeing this. "You brat, your hands went numb from the shock too! And you're still talking about me!"
Li Changfeng scrambled to his feet, and said with a wry smile, "You all bully me because I'm weak!"
Upon hearing this Hall Master of Subduing Tiger snorted coldly, "Hmph! You have a long way to go. This little matter is nothing. Let's call it a day!"
The Hall Master of Subduing Dragon nodded upon hearing this. "Fu Hu is right! You must not be arrogant or complacent. You must practice diligently and humbly. This is the key, understand?"
Li Changfeng nodded solemnly upon hearing this, "Understood, Master!"
The Hall Master of Subduing Dragon nodded upon hearing this. "Alright! That's all for today. Don't forget to go and chant sutras with Abbot Hongchen. You must do this from now on, and don't miss a day!"
"Understood, Master! I'll go right away!"
After saying that, Li Changfeng hurriedly ran to the Scripture Recitation Hall and slowly disappeared.
The Imperial City.
At this moment, Murong Longbo sat majestically on the dragon throne, his arm supporting the throne, his fist resting on his chin, and said in a deep voice, "How well have those Jianghu sects been suppressed over the years!"
"Your Majesty! Since Your Majesty emerged from seclusion, we have been able to suppress those disobedient sects without any hindrance, sweeping all the way through, and most of the sects in the Southern Territory have submitted to the Imperial Court!"
"Only the Shaolin Temple, Emei Sect, Kongtong Sect, and Diancang Sect remain unwilling to submit. The Kongtong Sect and Diancang Sect should be easier to deal with; they're just opportunists. As long as we have the upper hand, they'll probably submit to us!"
"Both Shaolin and Emei are stubborn mules; they probably won't give in until the very last moment!" Commander Lu bowed respectfully.
Upon hearing this, Murong Longbo said in a deep voice, "What an ungrateful fellow! If it weren't for that brat Jue Kong, I would have wiped out these two sects long ago, instead of letting them be so presumptuous!"
Upon hearing this, Commander Lu bowed slightly and said, "Your Majesty, please calm your anger! As long as Your Majesty gives the order, we will wipe out these two sects first!"
Upon hearing this, Murong Longbo said in a deep voice, "Alright! Then you can go ahead and fight! See if they are willing to obey. If they are not, I will take action directly. This is the maximum tolerance I can show!"
Commander Lu bowed slightly upon hearing this, "I obey!"
"Wait!" A delicate voice suddenly rang out from the main hall.
Upon hearing this, Murong Longbo said in a deep voice, "Minmin! Do you have any objections?"
"Your Emperor! Perhaps I should lead the troops to try and reconcile with them, and see if we can achieve peace and gain their obedience. After all, they should bow down in the face of absolute power!"
Murong Longbo pondered for a moment, "Since that's the case, then you should take the lead! After all, you and Jue Kong have some connection, so having him mediate should be enough!"
Princess Minmin was overjoyed upon hearing this, "Then I thank Emperor for his kindness!"
Upon hearing this, Murong Longbo shook his head and laughed, "You little rascal!"
Princess Minmin hesitated for a moment, then said, "Emperor! I want someone else!"
"Oh? Who do you want?"
"Yuhuatian! He's quite capable! I feel more at ease with him around. Now that the First Imperial Uncle has reformed, I believe he won't do anything to harm me!"
Murong Longbo pondered for a moment upon hearing this, then said, "Alright! Having another peak Grandmaster would certainly be more prudent!"
"Hehe! Thank you very much, Emperor. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now!" After saying that, Princess Minmin walked directly out of the main hall.
Commander Lu also took his leave and slowly walked out of the main hall.
Murong Longbo slowly said, "Brother! This expedition depends on you!"
Suddenly, a figure slowly appeared in the main hall, smiling and saying, "Don't worry! With me here, Minmin will be fine!"
"Yes! That's right! I really feel at ease with you here!"
"Haha! Thank you for thinking so highly of me, Your Majesty. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave." With that, his figure blurred and disappeared.
Murong Longbo looked deep in thought. "Xuan Nan! You know perfectly well that Shaolin Temple's strength is no match for mine right now! What are you thinking? I'm really curious!"
"No! I have to go and see what he's really up to!"
