Chapter 2570 - 2569: Who Is the Junior?
Chapter 2570: Chapter 2569: Who Is the Junior?
"Everyone, the reason I’ve gathered you today is to discuss two extremely important matters." Lin Zhenyue’s voice was steady and powerful, penetrating every corner of the Holy Temple.
He paused for a moment, apparently organizing his thoughts.
Then, his tone became heavy, "The first matter concerns the ordeal faced by our Red Flame Legion."
As he spoke, a trace of sorrow flashed in Lin Zhenyue’s eyes.
"Not long ago, during the execution of an important task, our Red Flame Legion unfortunately encountered a well-planned ambush by the Blood Soul Hall. The battle was fierce and brutal, and the Red Flame Legion was nearly annihilated, with only the Supreme Commander and Ah Lang surviving."
At these words, a hushed gasp echoed throughout the Holy Temple.
The commanders of the nine major legions exchanged glances, their eyes filled with both shock and anger.
The core members of the Heavenly Alliance swiftly exchanged glances, clearly realizing the severity of the situation brought by this sudden calamity.
They turned their gaze towards the God of War, Chiyan.
Among them, a man clad in black armor with a black dragon tattooed on his face asked Chiyan, "Chiyan, is this true? Your Red Flame Legion was almost completely destroyed?"
This man was Mo Huan, commander of one of the "Dark Night Legion," one of the top ten legions.
His strength was at the peak Ninth Level Grandmaster stage. He had always been at odds with the God of War, Chiyan, and now his tone was one of accusation.
The God of War, Chiyan, did not bother to refute his accusatory words but instead was immersed in endless sorrow.
Mo Huan commander persisted, saying, "Chiyan, you caused the death of so many brothers in the Red Flame Legion."
"Why don’t you die to apologize?"
"If I were you, I’d definitely die to apologize."
At these words, Lin Dong frowned and said in a deep voice, "Senior, isn’t your mouth too foul? Is this how you speak?"
"Uncle Chiyan didn’t want such a thing to happen either. The Red Flame Legion suffered an ambush, resulting in almost total annihilation. For Uncle Chiyan, this is already a sad enough occurrence, and you, as an ally, instead of offering comfort, you even kick them while they’re down?"
"Is this something an ally should do?"
Hearing Lin Dong’s words, Mo Huan commander frowned, exuding an incomparably strong aura.
That aura pressed toward Lin Dong.
"Kid, since you know I’m your senior. How dare you speak to me like this?"
"Kneel before me! That’s the posture when speaking to elders!"
Yet...
The aura he emitted, pressing onto Lin Dong, seemed like sinking into the sea, unable to stir up any waves.
At the same time, Lin Dong couldn’t help but laughingly said, "Calling you senior, and you’re pretending to hold superiority? In front of me, feigning authority due to age, are you qualified?"
"In the Martial Arts World, seniority is determined by strength! If you think that speaking between juniors and seniors should be done kneeling, well then, you as the ’junior,’ kneel for me now!"
"Boom!!!" With these words, a terrifying aura erupted from Lin Dong and descended onto Mo Huan commander.
"Bang!" Instantly, Mo Huan commander felt like he was crushed by the sky!
It wasn’t even like being crushed by a mountain; the pressure of a mountain paled in comparison to this kind of potency and momentum.
Under this pressure, his legs bent, and he knelt down.
"Wow!!!!"
This scene stunned everyone.
Many couldn’t help but exclaim, "Heavenly Realm Martial Artist! He’s actually a Heavenly Realm Martial Artist!"
"So young, a Heavenly Realm Martial Artist? Isn’t this against the heavens?"
"..."
Mo Huan commander was also flushed with embarrassment. He never expected that this kid before him was actually a Heavenly Realm Martial Artist.
Earlier, he couldn’t detect Lin Dong’s aura at all. Seeing him so young, he never connected him with being a Heavenly Realm Martial Artist.
Now he has suffered a great loss!
He wanted to struggle to stand up, but how could he resist the pressure of a Heavenly Realm Martial Artist?
"Alliance Hierarch..." He could only look toward Alliance Hierarch Lin Zhenyue with a face full of crimson, pleading for assistance.
Lin Zhenyue frowned; he had always somewhat disliked Lin Dong, thinking Lin Dong was not a ’Commoner Descendant’ and had only grown to Heavenly Realm Martial Artist through resource accumulation, a premature growth.
And now, seeing Lin Dong directly forcing his subordinate Mo Huan commander to kneel, he felt this young man was too arrogant.
"Lin Dong, retract your pressure!" Lin Zhenyue said somewhat angrily.
The God of War, Chiyan, also said, "Lin Dong, quickly retract your pressure."
Seeing the Hierarch upset, he naturally didn’t want Lin Dong and Hierarch Lin Zhenyue to conflict.
Lin Dong glanced at Mo Huan commander, snorting, and said, "Isn’t it you who just said? Speaking between juniors and seniors requires a kneeling posture."
"I only followed your words."
"You..." Mo Huan commander gritted his teeth in anger, but with his strength weaker than that of his opponent, he had to swallow his rage.
In terms of age, he’s indeed older. But in the Martial Arts World, age doesn’t equate to strength. So despite being older, he is still a junior!
Lin Dong is the real senior!
"Lin Dong, this is my Dragon Alliance!" Lin Zhenyue also emitted a unique Heavenly Realm Martial Artist aura, wanting to disperse the pressure Lin Dong exerted on Mo Huan commander.
At the same time, intending to teach Lin Dong a lesson.
However, at this moment, Lin Dong had already withdrawn the pressure.
He didn’t let Lin Zhenyue’s Heavenly Realm aura affect him at all.
This left Lin Zhenyue feeling as though he’d punched cotton, utterly powerless.
"Hierarch, I think the most crucial thing for the Dragon Alliance now is unity. Internal conflict is not advisable; did you forget the war declaration from Blood Soul Hall earlier?" The God of War, Chiyan, hurriedly stepped forward to ease the tense atmosphere.
Lin Zhenyue gave Lin Dong a deep look and said no more.
"Mo Huan, this matter is also partly your fault! From now on, do not speak words that kick an allied corps when they’re down! The Dragon Alliance needs unity!" He educated Mo Huan commander.
Mo Huan commander stood up from the ground with a face flushed with injustice and then replied, "Yes, Alliance Hierarch!"
For now, this matter was temporarily put to rest.
Lin Zhenyue did not bring it up further and instead discussed the main topics!
"The sacrifice of the Red Flame Legion is a tremendous loss to our Dragon Alliance and a wake-up call for all of us." Lin Zhenyue’s voice turned more resolute, "But what we must do is not immerse ourselves in grief but transform this sorrow into strength, avenging the brothers of the Red Flame Legion!"
Next, Lin Zhenyue shifted the topic to the second matter.
"The second matter is even more urgent. Just now, an emissary from Blood Soul Hall came personally to issue a war declaration to our Dragon Alliance."
With these words, the atmosphere in the Holy Temple instantly tightened to the extreme.
"Is Blood Soul Hall going to start an all-out war with us?" The crowd speculated in various voices.
Everyone focused their gaze on Lin Zhenyue, waiting for his next words.
"The contents of the war declaration demand us to engage in three decisive battles to determine the dominion over this territory. The loser not only has to leave the accumulated resources from these years but also has to roll out of this area."
Lin Zhenyue’s voice carried an undeniable firmness, "The three battles will include a duel between the Alliance Hierarch and the host, a battle between elite experts from each side, and lastly, a team battle. The terms given by Blood Soul Hall are best of three matches."
As Lin Zhenyue spoke, the atmosphere in the Holy Temple grew increasingly solemn.
The commanders of the nine major legions all clenched their fists, their eyes flickering with indomitable resolve.
The core members of the Heavenly Alliance swiftly began strategizing responses to the imminent challenge.
"Everyone, since our Dragon Alliance’s establishment, we’ve weathered countless storms and have never bowed to any formidable force." Lin Zhenyue’s voice echoed in the Holy Temple, "This time, we will likewise not shrink back. We must unite as one, face this challenge together, protect our home, and preserve our honor!"
As soon as Lin Zhenyue finished speaking, thunderous cheers erupted in the Holy Temple.
"Never back down! Never back down!"
At this moment, everyone was united in aim, raising a resounding battle cry together.
