Chapter 2318
Coiling Dragon’s eyes flashed like a heavenly lamp . He said: “Brother Conqueror, you have killed thousands of disciples on top of the emperor of Five-saints . This had ruined the orders of the system . You need to give a reasonable answer . ”
“No need for this unctuous act . ” Conqueror shook his head: “If you want to fight me, just do it . Be a man instead of looking for excuses and justification . It’s very simple to say that you want to kill me, but if you don’t even have the courage to do so, you won’t be able to accomplish anything . ”
Conqueror directly broke the false pretense without any hesitation . The crowd certainly knew about this matter .
Eight-armed Dynasty and Coiling Dragon Young Noble would only have peace of mind after eliminating Conqueror . As long as he was around, he would always be a ticking calamity .
The problem was the main branch of the progenitor . His descendant could appear and retake the authority of the system . After all, Praymoon didn’t have strong claims to the system . Once Conqueror could prove his legitimacy, it would be a great blow to their sovereignty .
Under this assumption, Conqueror should be the next leader of Coiling Dragon System, not Coiling Dragon Young Noble . If such a day were to come, Conqueror would garner many followers .
Thus, before he could become a True Emperor, they would come up with ways to eliminate him . Otherwise, his ascension would also shut the door on their dynasty .
In fact, they have tried repeatedly to end him, albeit not out in the open . Ambushes were done in secrecy but this only resulted in failure and death . Because of this, the dynasty became increasingly nervous; some members thought that he could use the power of their system, or that he had some great masters protecting him .
The latter would be preferable because in the former case, it would mean that he could actually be a true descendant of the progenitor .
“Speak as you please, but I’m the successor of Coiling Dragon with responsibilities to uphold order . It is undeniable that you have slain many disciples of our system, and you must answer to the great powers . That’s what I am here for . ” Coiling Dragon slowly said .
His stance erred on the side of justice and logic since Conqueror did indeed slain his fellow cultivators .
“Feel free to try, but you alone won’t do . Even your Seven-Murder has been put down by me, you think you are stronger than him? How far away are you from becoming a True Emperor?” Conqueror didn’t lose his smile .
“Seven-Murder True God!” The astonished crowd knew this name .
A while back, news regarding the untimely death of General Seven-Murder from Eight-armed Dynasty became public . Everyone found it surprising that such a being would die from an illness . But now, they finally found out that Conqueror was the culprit .
During the previous conquests, this general was already a second-level True God, an Ascender . Some believed that he could even be at the third level . Did this mean that Conqueror was a True Emperor?
People found this impossible because the commotion of an ascension would be great, impossible to keep under wraps .
But if he was only a pseudo-True Emperor, killing a third-level True God would be prohibitively difficult .
“Brother Conqueror, you’re forgetting that this place is not our system . You have no advantages to speak of here . ” Coiling Dragon spoke with grace .
He tried to pry into Conqueror’s power with this statement . Everyone else was also eager to find out whether Conqueror could use the system’s power or not . Though impressive if he could, it would be unwise to fight here since this wasn’t Coiling Dragon System .
“I can still take you down all the same . ” Conqueror replied without any hesitation .
Coiling Dragon’s eyes became serious with cold, murderous intent . Though they were in the same classification, his status far exceeded Conqueror, so he wouldn’t stand for such blatant disdain .
Nevertheless, the crowd focused on the revelation - Conqueror had just admitted that he could use the system’s power . This was a big deal .
“Looks like you’re quite confident, Brother Conqueror . ” Coiling Dragon’s inflection turned aggressive .
Conqueror shook his head: “It’s not that I’m confident, but rather your Praymoon Sect is weak from birth . Your merit laws consist of the inessential branches from Coiling Dragon, possessing no real grasp on the orthodox grand dao and the true secrets of the progenitor . If it wasn’t for the excellent Coiling Dragon True Emperor, your sect wouldn’t have been able to take over the dao source . ”
Coiling Dragon’s expression soured as he struggled to breathe, feeling as if someone had punched him right in the heart . The comment pointed out the flaws of the current dynasty .
More and more felt that Conqueror was indeed a descendant of the progenitor or he wouldn’t speak with such certainty .
After taking over Coiling Dragon System, Eight-armed Dynasty found many merit laws and added to their collection over the long years . Plus, they have produced many True Emperors . Their merit laws weren’t weaker than the other great powers .
Alas, one must admit that they had very few arts from the actual progenitor . Perhaps only his descendants could truly have the complete versions . However, these descendants disappeared along with the arts . The dynasty had tried to find them for generations now .
“I want to see how many merit laws of the progenitor you have learned . ” Coiling Dragon challenged .
Conqueror remained dismissive of his foe: “I don’t think you’re my match, so you won’t be able to figure out anything . If some of your ancestors are here, come together, then maybe there’s a chance . ”
“Hmph . ” Coiling Dragon became dissatisfied .
“What if I join too?” Sword Sovereign finally spoke: “Our feud is not over . Let’s settle it today . ”
Coiling Dragon looked over at him and didn’t refuse .
The crowd believed that if these two were to team up, Conqueror would be at a great disadvantage .
However, he laughed and accepted right away: “Sure, come together . I also want to see how much you have learned from Sword Grave . ”
Some took a deep breath after hearing this . Conqueror was fierce indeed, wanting to go one versus two .
“You speak as if you have learned everything from your system’s progenitor . ” Sword Sovereign shared the same dissatisfaction as Coiling Dragon . Coincidentally enough, Sword Sovereign’s branch was also not the direct one in Sword Grave despite being in charge right now .
