Chapter 626: Chapter 626: The End
Long Guangyi looked at Liu Chengfeng and said earnestly, "Senior brother, I will show you what kind of changes Dragon Group will undergo under my leadership!"
Liu Chengfeng sighed and gently shook his head, "Then I will wait and see."
Ling Feng saw that Liu Chengfengâs health had improved a lot. He supported Liu Chengfeng and said, "Uncle Liu, letâs go down."
Although he had taken Long Guangyi as his master, Ling Feng now felt nothing but deep disgust for Long Guangyi and did not want to stay even a moment longer.
When Ling Feng helped Liu Chengfeng return below, the onlookers were shocked beyond belief. The Undefeated Dragon King, who hadnât tasted defeat in twenty years, had actually been defeated, defeated by his own junior brother, the Evil Dragon Long Guangyi!
However, though Liu Chengfeng had been defeated, there was no disdain in the eyes of those who looked at him, only full respect!
The battle between Liu Chengfeng and Long Guangyi was just too heart-stopping, whether it was the Great Flame Dragon Annihilation Slash or the Flame Dragon Burst, neither was something an average Demi-God Domain expert could withstand!
If Long Guangyi had not gotten the Poison Sac from the body of the Ancient Jiao Dragon, it would still be uncertain who would have won or lost this battle!
But in this world, there are no âifsâ, so Long Guangyi became the man who laughed last. From today on, the Dragon King of the Dragon Group is Long Guangyi, not Liu Chengfeng!
"The sky of the Underworld is about to change!" a Demi-God Domain expert said in a low voice while looking at Long Guangyi, "Liu Chengfeng could still maintain the Dragon Groupâs low profile and restraint, but Long Guangyi... with the name of the Evil Dragon, how could it be an undeserved reputation?"
"Dad!"
"Cheng Feng!"
Seeing the disheveled state of Liu Chengfeng, Xia Wanâer and Liu Tingyu rushed over, both women with tearful eyes, "What on earth happened?"
Ling Feng bowed his head in guilt, "Iâm sorry, Tingyu, Aunt Wan, I failed to protect Uncle Liu, I..."
Liu Chengfeng waved his hand, interrupting Ling Fengâs words, "What does this have to do with you? It was I who was no match for my junior brother! Itâs fair and square, thereâs nothing to complain about! If it werenât for your forced compromise, what difference would there be between me now and a walking corpse? Ling Feng, donât feel guilty, it is I, your Uncle Liu, who am in your debt!"
With that, Liu Chengfeng gently stroked Liu Tingyuâs hair, with a trace of helplessness and loss, "This is the first time youâve come to see my battle, but embarrassingly, I did not become the final victor. To show you such a disheveled sight, I truly donât deserve to be the hero in your heart!"
"No, itâs not like that, Dad!" Liu Tingyu threw herself into Liu Chengfengâs arms, sobbing, "I donât need you to be a hero, I just need you to be alive! Dad, Iâm so happy that you are alive!"
The earth-shattering battle between Liu Chengfeng and Long Guangyi instilled immense fear in Liu Tingyuâs heart, completely surpassing her imagination. Forget the hero, forget the Undefeated Dragon King, in Liu Tingyuâs heart, there was only one thought: Dad, you must stay alive!
Liu Chengfeng turned towards Xia Wanâer and said softly, "Dragon Group is now in my junior brotherâs hands. My power is gone, and itâs time for me to take a rest! For all these years, I have been deeply devoted to the affairs of Dragon Group, neglecting you and Tingyu. From now on, I just want to spend more time with you both."
Xia Wanâer nodded and said, "Alright, I will resign from my position at Dragon Group tomorrow. Iâll be with you, no matter where you are or where you want to go, I will be by your side!"
"Junior Brother has just taken over the Dragon Group and there are many things heâs not familiar with!" Liu Chengfeng said, patting Xia Wanâerâs hand. "You should try your best to help Junior Brother for now. As for resigning, letâs talk about that after the Dragon Group has resumed normal operations!"
Xia Wanâer frowned. She was utterly reluctant to help Long Guangyi! But she was well aware that the Dragon Group held a sacred place in Liu Chengfengâs heart; he wouldnât want his own issues to plunge the organization into difficulty.
"Alright then!" Xia Wanâer sighed in relief. "I will wait for half a month, but after that, I must resign from my position in the Dragon Group."
Seeing Xia Wanâerâs resolute gaze, Liu Chengfeng could only respond with a wry smile. "As you wish."
Eventually, Liu Chengfeng turned to Ling Feng. "Ling Feng, the battle between Long Guangyi and me is an internal struggle within the Dragon Group, concerning only our philosophies and with no personal vendettas! I know you are angry right now, but since you acknowledge Long Guangyi as your mentor, you must always remember you are his disciple. You should respect your teacher and his teachings, and never commit acts of rebellion, understand?"
Ling Feng exhaled. "I... I understand!"
"Long Guangyi is very strong," Liu Chengfeng continued. "I believe you can learn a lot from him. Although you are quite skilled and known as one of the Eight War Gods, you should realize that your War God title is but a mere reputation. Compared with the worldâs top powerhouses, there is still a huge gap!"
"You once said, âBreak through to the God Realm, defy the heavens to change fate, destroy and then regenerate.â With Long Guangyiâs guidance, I believe you will grow even faster and stand a greater chance of entering that supreme Domain," Liu Chengfeng said. "You must remember, we have no personal grudges with Long Guangyi, and I donât want you to face him with any bias! In his presence, you are his disciple, got it?"
Ling Fengâs eyes reddened; he could feel Uncle Liuâs sincere concern for him.
"Uncle Liu... I understand. I will control myself!"
Xia Wanâer said with some surprise, "Fengâer... he acknowledged Long Guangyi as his mentor? What exactly is going on?"
Long Guangyi had almost reduced her husband to a cripple, yet why would Ling Feng accept him as a master? This was simply unfathomable to Xia Wanâer!
"Donât blame Ling Feng; hereâs how things happened!" Liu Chengfeng knew that if he didnât explain, his wife and daughter would certainly be dissatisfied with Ling Feng.
Meanwhile, as Liu Chengfeng narrated the events, Colonel Kuroto of the Kuroteng Family gazed at him from a distance, a sharp gleam crossing his eyes: "Now is the perfect time to launch a surprise attack and kill Liu Chengfeng. When shall we make our move?"
Yamato Yoko beside him shook her head, "Itâs unnecessary. Liu Chengfeng is already a cripple; killing him would be worthless. Although we had a plan in place, we never expected Liu Chengfeng to lose all his strength. Now, our only target is Long Guangyi!"
"Once Long Guangyi is gone, the Dragon Group will be like a dragon without a head. Then, our mission to destroy the Dragon Group and invade Huaxia will be much easier!" Yamato Yoko narrowed her eyes, a malicious glint on her handsome face.
"Guangyi, youâve won!" With Liu Chengfeng gone, Long Guangyi and the Eight Great Elders stood atop Jiuyang Mountain. The Great Elder said to Long Guangyi, "Tomorrow, I will convene the heads of the Dragon Group to conduct the Dragon King ascension ceremony for you."
Long Guangyi nodded, "Okay, but Great Elder, can I represent the Dragon Group now?"
"Of course!" The Great Elder nodded. "According to the agreement made twenty years ago, now that you have defeated Cheng Feng, you are the sole candidate for Dragon King."
A gleam flashed in Long Guangyiâs eyes, "Good, then, with so many experts from the Underworld present, itâs time to make a declaration!"
