CapĂtulo 1625: Chapter 1578: The Fourth Princess in the Dark Night Sect (Part 2)
Song Xiaodong watched the two of them like fighting roosters, unable to help but be stupefied. Lin Feng, standing beside Song Xiaodong, smiled and said: âYoung Master, you donât need to mind these two guys. Every time they meet, they just canât help fighting, theyâre born enemies. If they donât quarrel, then thereâs something wrong.â
Song Xiaodong nodded, then smiled wryly, saying: âWe canât let them continue bickering, itâs quite the scene.â
Lin Feng laughed, âOf course, Young Master, you need to suppress these two. They havenât seen each other for years, so once they start, they easily get carried away and never stop.â
Song Xiaodong nodded, stood up, and said solemnly: âElder Zhao, Elder Su!â
âYoung Sect Master!â The two who were arguing immediately stopped.
Song Xiaodong said: âI know you two arenât comfortable if you donât bicker, but weâre in the middle of discussing serious matters now. Could you wait until weâre done, then find somewhere to quarrel to your heartâs content?â
Zhao Chengguo and Su Lie both blushed and bowed, saying: âWe will follow the Young Masterâs command.â
After suppressing them, Song Xiaodong didnât think it was a bad thing. While it seemed a bit unruly, thinking on the flip side, these Dragon Gate people do have a familial feeling.
Chapter 1579
With Zhao Chengguo and Su Lie making such a fuss, the atmosphere suddenly became relaxed.
Song Xiaodong said: âEveryone, regarding the future development of Dragon Gate, Iâd like to hear everyoneâs opinions. Although Iâm the Young Sect Master, without the support of all you elders, how can Dragon Gate prosper? So, whatever thoughts you have, feel free to speak, so I can better understand Dragon Gate and make decisions that align with our development.â
Song Xiaodongâs remarks were humble yet dignified, seeking advice without losing the prestige of a Young Sect Master.
The elders and protectors gained a deeper recognition of Song Xiaodong.
Among these elders, Lin Feng, although closest to Song Xiaodong and now holding the title of General, wasnât the most senior, ranking fourth.
Here, his position as General was never of much use; no one gave any thought to his rank.
Each elder here, if they truly joined the military, could easily hold the rank of General, but some simply didnât want to develop in that direction. Lin Feng just followed the arranged path Dragon Gate had planned.
The highest position belonged to an elder named Cao Jianlong.
At this moment, Cao Jianlong pondered for a moment and said: âYoung Master, what Elder Zhao said wasnât without reason. Although we achieved a temporary victory, it actually has no effect on the Dark Night Sect, just a matter of pride.â
Song Xiaodong nodded, âIndeed, Iâm well aware of this. I wonât become complacent because of it. I just want Dark Night Sect to understand they canât do as they please. We, Dragon Gate, do have the power to retaliate.â
Cao Jianlong nodded appreciatively, âSince the Young Master thinks this way, I wonât say more. What I want to stress is, since weâre at odds with the Dark Night Sect, we must solidify our strength. Our strength canât possibly be established here in China; this can only be a temporary haven. To truly establish Dragon Gate and contend with Dark Night Sect, we must have our real base where all Dragon Gate can take commands.â
Lin Feng nodded, âCao Elderâs point is correct; the best place is our original Dragon Gate. But now that Dragon Gateâs Fourth Princess isnât complete, how can we activate our Mountain Protection Array?â
Cao Jianlong looked at Song Xiaodong and said slowly, âActually⊠I know where the last Dragon Gate Princess is.â
âWhere is the last Dragon Gate Princess?â everyone exclaimed together.
Zhao Chengguo, puzzled, said: âShe was originally arranged by me, yet I couldnât find her. Old Cao, how did you know?â
Zhao Chengguo said: âOld Zhao, you had arranged well for the Princess, but I found you were followed by Dark Night Sect people. The Princessâs safety was indeed an issue.â
âAh!â Zhao Chengguo exclaimed in surprise, âI didnât notice!â
âYes, the one tracking you was Sun Enyang.â
âDamn! That dog-nosed bastard!â Zhao Chengguo cursed angrily, then said in fear, âThe Fourth Princess didnât fall victim to him, did she?â
Cao Jianlong shook his head, âAfter discovering this, I wasnât confident in killing him; it would have easily attracted more Dark Night Sect people. So, I seized an opportunity to take the Princess away.â
Zhao Chengguo breathed a sigh of relief, âGlad you thought ahead. Where is the Princess now?â
Cao Jianlong smiled wryly, âThen, I contemplated, where should I arrange for the Princess? We were fleeing everywhere, hunted relentlessly by Dark Night Sect. It seemed unsafe to send the Princess anywhere. Then, suddenly, I recalled a saying⊠â
âWhat saying?â Su Lie immediately asked in urgency.
Cao Jianlong said: âThe most dangerous place is the safest place.â
Song Xiaodongâs heart skipped a beat, âYou sent the Fourth Princess to Dark Night Sect?â
