Supreme Dragon Lord-Chapter 27 -

"How arrogant! Do you really think I don’t know what you’re scheming?" Su Miaoyu said with disdain. "Ling Yan went to the Long Family last night to heal your injuries. Because of that, you now think you can take the Tianmo Pill, is that right?"

Nearby, Shangguan Ming expressed his surprise. "Long Yu said you were gravely injured yesterday, as thin as a rake, yet today you look the picture of health, without a scratch on you. It seems Ling Yan has been quite meticulous in her care for you. I wonder what method she used to enable such a rapid recovery."

Just then, a charming voice drifted over from a distance. "I’m not that capable."

Everyone turned to see two women approaching side by side. The one in the purple dress who had spoken was none other than Ling Yan. The other woman, dressed in yellow, was about twenty years old. While not as stunning as Ling Yan, she had a graceful figure and a remarkable appearance. She was Chen Yao, a deacon of the Wuzong Human Institute and its former Senior Sister.

Chen Yao is walking with Ling Yan? Do they actually have a private relationship? Shangguan Ming frowned slightly, a sense of unease creeping over him.

As she walked, Ling Yan continued, "As everyone knows, anyone who takes the Tianmo Pill will inevitably damage their martial foundation. In a mild case, they become a cripple; in a severe case, they die. Although there are Heaven and Earth Treasures in this world that can repair a martial foundation, I don’t have any, and neither does the World Business Association in Dragon City!"

Hearing this, Su Miaoyu laughed with rage. "If you couldn’t heal his injuries, then why is he standing here perfectly fine? Don’t pretend you didn’t go to the Long Family last night! It’s because you went that Long Chen recovered in a single night! As the manager of the World Business Association, you meddle in the feud between the Su and Long families, help Long Chen evade our pursuit, treat his father Long Dou’s injuries, and even give him a Tianmo Pill to defy me! Do you really think you can wash your hands of this?"

With that said, Su Miaoyu turned to Shangguan Ming. "Please, Big Brother Shangguan, report this matter to the Martial Ancestor! The World Business Association must be held accountable!"

Shangguan Ming nodded. "Hm, this matter..."

"I did help Brother Chen. What are you going to do about it?" Ling Yan said with a flirtatious smile. "You’re right about everything, you little wretch. I was the one who gave Brother Chen the Tianmo Pill, and I’m the one who healed his father, Long Dou. I did go to the Long Family last night to help Brother Chen recover. I even asked Sister Chen Yao to accept him into the Wuzong Human Institute!"

Batting her beautiful eyes, Ling Yan walked straight up to Su Miaoyu, grabbed her by the shoulder, and hauled her to her feet.

"This seat should be mine!" With a sudden burst of strength, Ling Yan yanked Su Miaoyu aside and sat down in the chair herself.

Powerless to resist, Su Miaoyu was overwhelmed with shame and indignation. "Big Brother Shangguan..."

"You really shouldn’t be sitting there," Chen Yao said suddenly, taking a seat in the chair beside Ling Yan.

Shangguan Ming’s brows knitted together, his expression wavering. "Junior Sister Chen Yao, didn’t the Human Institute send you here to recruit Miaoyu?"

"What would be the point? She’s already engaged to Shangguan Pojun of your Earth Institute. I’d rather take Sister Ling Yan’s advice..." At this, Chen Yao’s gaze shifted to Long Chen, who stood not far away. She continued with a slight smile, "and accept Long Chen into the Human Institute."

"Sister Ling Yan said you can refine a hundred Third-rank Superior Elixirs in a single night. She also said the only price for taking the Tianmo Pill was a loss of vital energy. From that, she concluded you must have an extremely strong constitution. Even if it doesn’t compare to the Emperor Meridians, it’s better than me coming to Dragon City for nothing!"

Chen Yao gazed at Long Chen and invited him with a light chuckle, "Regardless, on behalf of the Human Institute, I’m accepting you today!"

Instantly, the entire venue fell so silent you could hear a pin drop. No one had expected Chen Yao, a deacon from the Wuzong Human Institute, to publicly extend an invitation to Long Chen. Moreover, she claimed he possessed an extremely strong constitution, one capable of withstanding the effects of the Tianmo Pill!

"This is impossible..." Su Miaoyu’s face turned ashen, her heart thrown into chaos.
