Supreme Dragon Lord-Chapter 250: Spread the News!

The disciples of the Divine Blade Sect instantly raised their guard, preparing for battle.

Noticing the Divine Blade Sect disciples ahead, Dong Xuan raised his hand, signaling for the Guiyuan Academy disciples to halt their pursuit.

"First Senior Brother, what’s wrong?" Wei Lin asked impatiently.

Dong Xuan said to Wei Lin, "Look ahead. It seems there are people from the Divine Blade Sect."

Hearing this, Wei Lin looked ahead carefully. Indeed. He too noticed the Divine Blade Sect disciples standing with Lu Hao, and his expression grew solemn.

"Why are people from the Divine Blade Sect here? Damn it! Are we really going to let him get away with this?"

"Second Junior Brother, don’t be reckless!" Dong Xuan shook his head and said, "The people of the Divine Blade Sect are not to be trifled with."

Wei Lin pondered. "But if this gets out, our Guiyuan Academy..."

Before Wei Lin could finish, Long Chen flickered and appeared beside him. "Let’s go," he said calmly. "It seems this matter can no longer be hidden. I can already sense several powerful auras heading this way. In this situation, we can’t afford a protracted battle. It’s best to leave this place and distance ourselves from these other powers to best ensure our safety."

"That makes sense." Dong Xuan nodded in agreement. "We’ll do as Brother Long says!"

Then, Dong Xuan turned to address the disciples of Guiyuan Academy, who voiced no objections and complied with his arrangements.

Wei Lin spoke with a hint of regret, "That guy got lucky. However, now that this is out in the open, it’s not good for Guiyuan Academy."

Dong Xuan felt helpless as well. "There’s no other way. As Brother Long said, the most prudent course of action is to leave here quickly."

"That’s all we can do," Wei Lin agreed with a slight, reluctant nod.

"Go!" Dong Xuan ordered the Guiyuan Academy disciples, and they immediately departed at top speed.

Only after the disciples of Guiyuan Academy had left did the disciples of the Divine Blade Sect lower their guard slightly.

"Brother Dao Ying, they must have hesitated out of fear when they saw you were from the Divine Blade Sect. That’s why they didn’t dare to pursue," Lu Hao said, his eyes flickering as he seized the opportunity. "We must chase them down and finish them all! I will have vengeance for the fallen disciples of Xuanyue Valley!"

Hearing this, Dao Ying didn’t act as Lu Hao suggested. Instead, he gave Lu Hao a deep, searching look.

After all, in his eyes, the strength of Guiyuan Academy was truly trivial. Yet now, he had learned that the disciples of Guiyuan Academy had not only killed disciples from Xuanyue Valley but that even Qian Kun of the Heavenly Water Sect had died at their hands. This sudden turn of events was simply staggering.

He was filled with doubts. How exactly did the disciples of Guiyuan Academy manage it? Could they have a hidden expert among them? Are they trying to play the part of a pig to eat the tiger here in the Sacred Ruins Forbidden Land? All these concerns swirled in Dao Ying’s mind.

This was why he hadn’t immediately sent his people in pursuit after Guiyuan Academy’s disciples left. He had to get to the bottom of this. Only by thoroughly understanding Guiyuan Academy’s true situation and weighing the pros and cons could he make a move against them. He had no desire to act on impulse and suffer the same fate as the Heavenly Water Sect.

This scrutiny made Lu Hao visibly uneasy. He subconsciously averted his gaze, not daring to meet Dao Ying’s eyes, as if afraid of being seen through. It was this exact reaction that aroused Dao Ying’s suspicion.

Dao Ying walked straight ahead.

Arriving at the cliff’s edge, he saw Qian Kun and the others, all dead. Although he had already heard that they had died at the hands of Guiyuan Academy’s disciples, seeing the scene for himself still filled him with shock and horror.

The disciples of the Divine Blade Sect were also terrified. Their minds reeled with a single question: was this truly the work of Guiyuan Academy, known for being the weakest of them all?

Dao Ying turned back to Lu Hao and said, "You’d better explain everything that happened here, down to the last detail. Otherwise, no one can save you!"

"Understood! Understood!" Lu Hao nodded hurriedly.

Things had already reached this point. He was no longer afraid of everyone finding out about the Heaven Reaching Fruit. All he wanted now was to see that group from Guiyuan Academy die horribly before his very eyes. That would be enough!

With this thought, he gave Dao Ying and the others a brief account of everything that had happened.

"Heaven Reaching Fruit... and five of them?!"

When Dao Ying learned about the Heaven Reaching Fruit, he was momentarily stunned. When he heard there were five, he thought he was hearing things.

The emotions of the Divine Blade Sect disciples also flared at this moment. Everyone knew that consuming a single Heaven Reaching Fruit could completely transform a person, causing their cultivation to soar. This was a great fortune for anyone, an incredibly rare opportunity that one could encounter but never seek out. Any cultivator who learned of this would never let it go!

"That’s right!" Lu Hao nodded and continued, "That kid not only has the Heaven Reaching Fruit, but he also possesses the Jinyin Tiger’s Inner Pill!"

HISS!

Hearing this, the Divine Blade Sect disciples present all drew a sharp breath. That kid actually had so many treasures on him!

A flicker of greed flashed through Dao Ying’s eyes.

Seeing the determined looks on the faces of the Divine Blade Sect disciples, Lu Hao smiled coldly, knowing his words had had their intended effect. If he had merely asked the Divine Blade Sect for help based on their sects’ relationship, they might have treated the matter perfunctorily. But now that he had revealed that Long Chen possessed so many Secret Treasures, they would frantically attack Long Chen and the Guiyuan Academy disciples, relationship or not.

Lu Hao continued, "Brother Dao Ying, that’s not all."

"Hmm?" Dao Ying’s eyes widened at Lu Hao. What do you mean, ’that’s not all’? First five Heaven Reaching Fruits, then a Jinyin Tiger’s Inner Pill... weren’t those enough Secret Treasures? Just how many did the people from Guiyuan Academy obtain?

Lu Hao explained, "In truth, Guiyuan Academy itself isn’t worth worrying about. The problem is one of their disciples. He’s very strange."

"How so?" Dao Ying asked, puzzled.

Lu Hao continued, "I could clearly sense that the kid’s strength was merely at the War Ancestor Realm, but when we actually fought, he could go toe-to-toe with a War King Realm powerhouse. What’s even more outrageous is that he can instantly suppress a person’s cultivation—by four whole Layer Realms! It was precisely because of that kid’s strange ability, combined with Dong Xuan and Wei Lin, that our Xuanyue Valley and the Heavenly Water Sect were so utterly defeated. Otherwise, with their strength, how could they possibly have stood against us?"

"Now that you put it that way, things are certainly getting more and more interesting," Dao Ying said, his eyes narrowing slightly. "Spread the word that the boy has the Jinyin Tiger Inner Pill Treasure. That alone will be enough to get them killed!"
