Ultimate Village Doctor-Chapter 783 - 847 Subjugation

Chapter 783: Chapter 847: Subjugation Chapter 783: Chapter 847: Subjugation Chapter 847

As Fan Butong’s voice fell, Cui Yongning was struck as if by lightning, utterly shocked.

“The Grandmaster of the Tang Family is dead?”

Having been stationed in Xichuan for dozens of years and occupying Tiandu Mountain alone, the Tang Family was known as the premier noble family of Xichuan.

As a family in Tianfu City, how could the Cui Family not be aware of the Tang Family?

During the grand banquet celebrating the 90th birthday of the Tang family’s ancestor, Cui Yongning, as the Patriarch of the Cui Family, had once visited to offer his birthday wishes.

However, given the Cui Family’s second-rate status in Tianfu City, even he, the Patriarch, couldn’t enter the core circle.

He merely lingered on the periphery, and along with many others, had the opportunity to see the Tang Family Head.

He didn’t even get to see Tang Honghu.

...

Since then, he truly understood why the Tang Family dared to claim the title of the first noble family in Xichuan.

And he understood the majesty of a Grandmaster.

Compared with the Tang Family, the Cui Family was like a firefly against the bright moon.

And now, the old ancestor of the Tang Family had actually been assassinated.

The murderer was none other than the so-called underground Dragon Head of Hechuan, which was utterly absurd.

“No, that can’t be possible,” Cui Yongning said with a trembling voice.

Fan Butong sneered repeatedly, “Do you think I have the time to deceive you for fun?

Oh, I forgot to tell you, your worthless nephew, because he offended Master Long, was split in two with a single knife by him.

A well-deserved death indeed!”

“Hua’er,” Cui Yongning’s face turned pale.

“What, you still don’t accept it?” sneered Fan Butong.

“Fine, why don’t I take you to Wanlong Mountain now to see Master Long?

You can go and accuse him to his face and seek justice for your nephew’s death.”

Fan Butong’s words were like a bucket of cold water poured over his head.

Cui Yongning shuddered all over.

He realized then that Long Xiaoshan, who had killed that Grandmaster of the Tang Family, was an existence that had brought the entire Tang Family to its knees.

His Cui Family was nothing but an ant that could be easily crushed in comparison to the Tang Family.

Even the Tang Family didn’t dare to accuse Long Xiaoshan.

What standing did he have to fight against a Heavenly Being who was a Grandmaster?

It was no longer a matter of whether his nephew lived or died.

It was a matter of whether the Grandmaster would choose to spare the Cui Family.

He didn’t even need to take action personally.

With just one decree from the Grandmaster, someone like Fan Butong, a powerful martial artist, would take care of the Cui Family for him.

A chill settled in Cui Yongning’s heart.

Compared to the entire Cui Family’s future, what was one nephew worth?

The likes of Cui Yongning who controlled family affairs were ruthless characters, certainly not ones overrun by emotional affection.

His face alternated between shades of green and white, finally settling into an indifferent sigh.

“My unworthy nephew actually offended a Heavenly Being; he deserved death…

Senior Fan, I have been remiss this time, having offended a Heavenly Being.

I will make some preparations now and follow you to Wanlong Mountain to ask for forgiveness from the Dragon Celestial Being with a gesture of submission!”

Fan Butong’s gaze flashed, eyeing Cui Yongning for a long while.

A full half-minute passed.

Fan Butong slowly retracted his sword from Cui Yongning’s neck, speaking indifferently, “Fine, since you are willing, I will spare you for now.

Whether you live or die is up to the Heavenly Being’s judgment.”

…

Meanwhile, in the many families of Xichuan.

Similar incidents were occurring again and again.

One after another, martial artists broke into these families, turning hostile faces.

They brought the news of Wanlong Mountain into these families.

Simultaneously, the news of Long Xiaoshan being a Grandmaster and Heavenly Being, cutting down a Grandmaster, and crushing the Tang Family, also spread among these families.

It caused fear and tremendous upheaval…

…

At Wanlong Mountain, Long Xiaoshan sat cross-legged atop a cliff.

The mountain wind howled, causing his slightly long hair to dance wildly.

Wang Chao approached from a distance, followed by two people.

These two stumbled as they walked, their faces pale, clearly injured — it was the hunchbacked old man and the red-clothed beauty.

One had their ribcage shattered by a single breath from Long Xiaoshan, the other suffered a backlash from Long Xiaoshan’s spirit.

Although severely injured, they were both Mid Xuan-Level experts with extremely strong vitality and hadn’t died.

After gradually regaining consciousness, they learned of Long Xiaoshan’s status as a Grandmaster.

Now, led by Wang Chao, the two made their way to the cliff stone and gazed at Long Xiaoshan, who sat there like a god.

Both revealed a look of fear in their eyes.

Without waiting for Long Xiaoshan to speak, they knelt down and kowtowed continuously, saying, “This humble old (body) pays respects to Master Long.

We were blind to have offended the Grandmaster, and we beg the Heavenly Being for forgiveness!”

Long Xiaoshan’s eyes opened slightly, revealing a wisp of golden light as he said, “Stand up.”

The two people shakily got up.

Bowing their heads, they didn’t dare to look directly into Long Xiaoshan’s eyes.

Long Xiaoshan said, “Tell me your names and the origins of your teachings.”

After exchanging looks, the hunchbacked old man spoke first, “Master Long, my name is Huo Peng.

I originated from a branch of the Huo Family in Lingnan Province.

After our family split, I came to the southwest.

Having received favors from the Huang Family, I stayed here to serve them as a Worship Master.”

The red-clothed beauty’s eyes flickered as she said, “This unworthy one is called Zhu Hongling, hailing from the Xuan Charm Sect.

However, due to certain events, I left the sect and ended up here.”

Her words were vague, evidently hiding something.

But Long Xiaoshan couldn’t care less about her secrets, saying indifferently, “So, you two are now Loose Cultivators without any sect or faction.”

Huo Peng and Zhu Hongling both nodded.

Long Xiaoshan spoke indifferently, “You’ve offended this Grandmaster, and by rights should be sentenced to death!

However, considering you were unaware of my identity, I’m willing to give you a chance to redeem yourselves.

Swear an oath to recognize me as your master and obey my commands, and I will grant you your lives.”

Huo Peng and Zhu Hongling’s expressions changed slightly.

As masters from Hidden Sects, they had their own dignities.

They were unwilling to become slaves or servants.

But what choice did they have under the circumstances?

Remembering the Grandmaster’s status,

Huo Peng and Zhu Hongling felt slightly more at ease, especially since he was a rare young Grandmaster from Hidden Sects and a prestigious figure ranked tenth on the Dragon List.

With this thought, the two prostrated and vowed, “We pay respects to our master; we hereby swear to recognize Master Long as our master.

If we violate this oath, may we be struck down by heaven and earth and our Divine Souls be annihilated, never to cross over from Yellow Springs!”

“Stand up,” Long Xiaoshan said evenly.

“Remember your oaths today.

If I learn of even the slightest thought of betrayal from you, I vow to chase your souls to the ends of the heavens and into the abyss to ensure your Divine Souls are utterly destroyed, never to find peace.”
