Chapter 684 Tower Ancestor

chapter 684 tower ancestor

translator: borntobe

the person he had expected to come had come. but what was not within long chen’s expectations was that while the tower administrator had come, the person speaking wasn’t him. it was a lean elder whose eyes released a warm light. instead of looking strict and icy, he seemed like a kind senior.

but what shocked everyone was that the tower administrator was actually behind that elder. he seemed extremely solemn, and he didn’t say a word.

when huo changsheng and the others saw the design on the elder’s robes, their expressions completely changed and they hastily bowed.

“disciple greets tower ancestor!”

seeing this, everyone was dumbfounded. they hastily followed their footsteps and bowed.

long chen was also stunned. the tower administrator had once warned him that the tower ancestor was coming.

long chen had thought that everyone would know when the tower ancestor arrived. but now he realized that none of them had been aware. he suddenly realized that chai liehuo and fang chang had probably forgotten to warn their family heads.

just as long chen was hesitating over whether or not he should bow, the tower ancestor waved his hand. “you can dispense the formalities. it really must be nice to be young. seeing your attitudes today, it seems that if i didn’t appear, you were prepared to raze the pill tower to the ground.”

huo changsheng hastily explained, “tower ancestor, please help disciple obtain justice! my huo family’s bride was forcibly snatched by someone, and we had no choice but to counterattack!”

the tower ancestor smiled. “oh? so such a thing happened? how interesting. who would be so brazen as to snatch your huo family’s bride?”

“reporting to tower ancestor, it was this little one,” said long chen.

“why would you do this?” asked the tower ancestor.

“well, there were two reasons. one was that he snatched my woman yesterday,” said long chen slightly awkwardly.

“and the other reason?”

“cough, the other reason... damnit, it really is irritating. huo wufang’s woman was actually even more beautiful than mine, so i had to take her,” said long chen.

hua biluo stiffened. just what was long chen doing? although that elder’s cultivation base was hidden, the pressure that came from him was something that made it so others weren’t even able to look him in the eye. for long chen to dare say such words, was he trying to make a joke?

“long san, pay attention to your words!” shouted the tower administrator. this was for long san’s own good, as the tower ancestor possessed a grand status.

“hahahaha!”

no one had expected that the tower ancestor would suddenly laugh. “it really is nice to be young. you dare to do anything.”

seeing that the tower ancestor wasn’t angry with long chen and actually praised him, huo changsheng had a bad feeling. he hastily said, “tower ancestor, long san is simply spouting shameless nonsense. my huo family never ordered anyone to go to the fang family.”

“you didn’t know about it? didn’t you already admit to it just now? everyone heard it. furthermore, weren’t they all at your huo family yesterday?” sneered long chen.

huo wufang began to sweat. this move of his was too vicious. he had no way to admit to this.

“cough, those children are just too young and not sensible enough. it’s common for them to do foolish things in their hotheadedness. wufang had no idea about this matter. let me take his place to apologize to you,” said huo changsheng.

“tch, does an apology have any use? stretch your neck out here and let me cut it with my blade. then i’ll apologize to you,” said long chen disdainfully.

“long san, all things have their reasons. my huo family might have been in the wrong this time, but you also went too far. don’t try to act like the victim. don’t go too far!” huo changsheng had a stomach full of fury, but in front of the tower ancestor, he didn’t dare release it. however, the threat in his words was obvious.

“don’t go too far? hahaha, just how laughable is this phrase when it comes from your huo family’s mouth? your huo family has committed so many atrocities, but who dares to bully you? if anyone tried, wouldn’t they be killed by you? it’s just like long chen. in the chaos region, your huo family secretly incited the corrupt path into killing him. just who is going too far?”

“what nonsense! don’t slander others!” huo changsheng was infuriated, but also incomparably shocked. this matter was something only the higher-ups of the xuantian dao sect knew of. to protect this secret, the huo family had paid a huge sum of hush money.

the xuantian dao sect was an enormous existence. it was so powerful that they didn’t even need to send someone to huo wufang’s wedding.

in reality, the xuantian dao sect’s headquarters had relationships with pill valley. they could simply ignore the huo family. the xuantian dao sect had required compensation for what the huo family had done to long chen. but this compensation was mostly for the shui family, or the shui family might continue to make a huge deal out of this.

after making the huo family pay a painful price, the xuantian dao sect hadn’t mentioned this topic again. it was completely unexpected for long san to raise it now. not only was huo changsheng shocked and infuriated, he was also a bit panicked.

it had to be known that the tower ancestor possessed an extremely high status and authority. the tower ancestors were in charge of selecting talented people to bring to pill valley. although this tower ancestor wasn’t in charge of disciplinary actions, if he were to report this, their huo family would be doomed.

“slander others? am i, long san, someone who would do that? i’m sure everyone will understand once they see this.” long chen directly activated a photographic jade.

when a scene appeared in midair, huo changsheng’s expression completely changed. that scene was the same one the xuantian dao sect had shown him.

space suddenly trembled. that scene had only just appeared when the tower ancestor waved his hand. the image froze and then faded.

“we’ve gone off-topic. continuing like this will have no end. i’m rather old, and my time is precious. let’s handle this matter quicker. i understand the general situation. your huo family truly did kidnap long san’s woman.”

“tower ancestor, we didn’t!” cried huo wufang.

the tower ancestor waved his hand. “whether or not you did, long san has proof that you kidnapped her, while you have no proof that you didn’t. yesterday, you snatched long san’s woman, and today, long san snatched your woman. the result is that long san is satisfied, but you are displeased, feeling like you lost out.

“then how about this: we will follow the traditional rules of the world to settle this. this is what it means for a champion to have beauties. you two can have a decisive battle, and the winner will obtain the beauty. do you accept?”

“i accept! i’ve long since found this fellow to be displeasing. this time, i’ll give him a proper beating!” said long chen. this situation was all too perfect. to give huo wufang a vicious beating at this time, what could be better?

huo wufang glared at long chen, his eyes practically spitting flames. “i also”

“huo wufang accepts his defeat.”

suddenly, huo changsheng’s words caused everyone to be stunned.
