War God Long Ao

The Third Level Long Family?

Hearing Xia Fang's words, Long Ao and the other two were stunned. It was a case of their worst fears coming true.

"Brother Long, you need to leave this place now! Get as far away as you can. Remember, don't do anything reckless. The Third Level Long Family is nothing like the Blood Sea Sect."

A Venerable?

Dugu Bai and Xia Army knew all too well that even if Long Ao's Cultivation broke through to the Venerable realm, it would mean nothing in the face of the Third Level Long Family. Never mind the entire family—a single Celestial Venerable dispatched by them could easily obliterate Long Ao.

Such was the power of the Third Level Long Family.

Before Long Ao could get up to leave, a cold snort echoed through the room. A moment later, a middle-aged, burly man walked in.

After a cold glance at the four of them, Fang Hong said, "Xia Fang, are you trying to defy the Long Family?"

At these words, the color drained from Xia Fang's face, and he was terrified. No matter how you looked at it, the Third Level Long Family was one of the Four Great Dominators of Kyushu. If they decided to move against the Thunder Sect, the consequences would be unimaginable.

'The Thunder Sect is in deep trouble this time, all because of Long Ao.'

"This has nothing to do with the Thunder Sect. If you want something, deal with me."

"Oh?"

Letting out a soft sound of surprise, Fang Hong smiled and nodded. "Xia Fang and the Thunder Sect have shown loyalty and honor. My Long Family will not touch them. You must be Long Ao?"

"I am."

The moment Long Ao finished speaking, a powerful momentum erupted from Fang Hong, pressing down hard on him. CRACK! If he hadn't resisted with all his might, the sheer pressure of that momentum would have been enough to take his life.

"Hahaha, not bad. Not bad at all."

The momentum vanished. Fang Hong suddenly burst into laughter and said, "Long Ao, you're merely a disciple from the Red Fire Town Long Family, yet you possess a Dragon Companion. I am taking you back to the Long Family now."

It was just as he had expected.

Long Ao showed no surprise. He calmly said, "Senior, I have a request. I wonder if you might grant it?"

"Speak," Fang Hong clearly had a good impression of Long Ao; otherwise, he wouldn't have wasted so many words.

"I have many urgent matters to attend to. I hope Senior can give me one month. After a month, I will wait for you here."

"Fine, I'll give you one month," Fang Hong said. With that, he rose and left, vanishing without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Fang Hong agreed?

Watching the figure fade away, everyone was dumbfounded. After all, the Third Level Long Family had clearly come to capture Long Ao, but what was this outcome?

"Brother Long, that man seems to think well of you."

Long Ao nodded, then shook his head. "No matter what, I won't trust anyone so easily. The Third Level Long Family won't let this go."

"Brother Long, what do you plan to do then?"

「An hour later.」

Long Ao left the Thunder Sect and headed directly for the Ghost King Sect to find Ao Xue. Three months ago, he had raised hell at the Blood Sea Sect and nearly met a violent end. Having survived such a disaster, Long Ao's state of mind seemed to have changed significantly.

After news of Long Ao's "Rebirth" spread throughout Kyushu, the number one spot on the Wind and Cloud Ranking once again fell to him. He was not only first on the Celestial State's Wind and Cloud Ranking, but first on the Kyushu Wind and Cloud Ranking—the number one expert of the younger generation.

Before Long Ao could make it to the Ghost King Sect, he stumbled upon a piece of news: the Red Fire Town Long Family had not been annihilated. Someone had seen disciples of the Red Fire Town Long Family.

Receiving this news, Long Ao was ecstatic, utterly overjoyed. The great battle three months ago had all been for his family's sake. Now, learning that his family was safe, how could he not be happy?

But in the vast Celestial State, finding his family was certainly no easy task.

However, Long Ao did not give up. He tried countless methods and finally obtained news of his family.

「Long Ao Peak.」

Ever since Long Ao had Fallen, the entire Long Family had become lifeless and had even begun to show signs of decline. This was the disadvantage of having one person become too powerful; once Long Ao Fell, the Long Family could no longer hold on and didn't even dare to show their faces.

The moment Long Ao appeared before Long Ao Peak, a cry of shock rang out. Long An's eyes went wide as he stared intently at the youth who had suddenly materialized before him, dressed in black with long, blood-red hair and two blood-red eyebrows. 'Isn't that Seventh Brother?'

Instead of going to greet Long Ao, Long An threw his head back and started shouting at the top of his lungs. In no time, the news of Long Ao's return had spread throughout the entire Long Family.

Within just a few short minutes, everyone in the Long Family, from the top down, had rushed out. Upon seeing Long Ao, Mu Lin fainted on the spot. After all, three months of pining for her son had pushed her to her absolute limit.

"Hahaha, good! It's good that you're back!"

Long Haoshi laughed heartily, his entire being seeming much more relaxed. His most outstanding grandson was not dead, after all. That alone was enough.

Long Ao's sudden return made everyone completely ecstatic. One by one, they bubbled with excitement. The once-lifeless Long Family was instantly revitalized, with everyone so pumped up they looked like they wanted to rush forward and pull Long Ao into a crushing hug.

After everyone chatted for a while, Long Ao first spent some time with his mother before coming to the main hall. At this moment, the Long Family's main hall was already full. Only three people occupied the seats of honor: Long Haoshi, Wang Yidao, and Mu Wanfeng.

"Ao'Er, tell us, what exactly happened three months ago?"

Everyone was impatient to hear. No matter what, they had only heard rumors about the events of three months ago and hadn't witnessed them firsthand.

Long Ao held nothing back regarding the great battle with the Blood Sea Sect three months prior, because everyone in the hall was among the people closest to him in this world. Then, Long Ao began his tale, and he spoke for two whole hours.

After he finished, everyone was sighing with emotion. Wang Yidao said with deep feeling, "I truly never imagined, Ao'Er, that you could already slay ten Venerables and instantly kill three Supreme Venerables."

"I only managed it by using a Secret Technique to forcibly boost my strength. Otherwise, it would have been impossible."

Long Ao spoke lightly, but everyone knew just how perilous the battle three months ago had been. If not, Long Ao wouldn't have been killed. In any case, Long Ao hadn't stayed dead, which was a tremendously good thing for the Long Family.

"Grandfather, not long ago, a Law Enforcement Celestial Venerable from the Third Level Long Family came looking for me."

"The Third Level Long Family!" Hearing his grandson mention them, Long Haoshi and the others were shocked. Everyone knew what the Third Level Long Family represented, and Long Haoshi was stunned, wondering why they would suddenly seek out his grandson.

"Ao'Er, what did the Third Level Long Family want with you?"

"Because of the Dragon Martial Artist."

The Dragon Martial Artist. Others might not know about this, but Long Haoshi and the few others present knew perfectly well.
