Long Mowen's intention was very simple. He wanted to cut the weeds and eliminate all future troubles.
Even so, Long Mowen did not make a move in the end. After all, the other three clans had not made a move yet, which made him wary.
Everyone in the Long Clan knew that Long Ao had accepted the Imperial City's invitation. Long Haoshi and Mu Wanfeng, as the representatives, rushed to the Dragon Sect as fast as they could. They were afraid that Long Ao would leave early.
Seeing his grandson, Long Haoshi went straight to the point. He asked impatiently, "Ao 'er, you've accepted the Imperial City's invitation?"
Long Ao nodded. Since things had come to this point, there was no need to hide anything. He replied, "Yes, Grandfather. I've accepted the Imperial City's invitation. I'll leave for the Imperial City tomorrow."
Hearing this, Long Haoshi and Mu Wanfeng were shocked.
Long Haoshi said anxiously, "Ao 'er, I believe you know better than me what kind of existence the Imperial City is. If that's the case, why do you still want to go to the Imperial City?"
"You're right. Ao 'er, I know you're very proud, but you can't be conceited. According to the grudge between you and the Imperial City, the moment you go to the Imperial City, they will definitely deal with you."
He did not give Long Ao any chance to speak.
Long Haoshi continued, "You know there are tigers in the mountains. Why do you still want to go to the Imperial City?"
Looking at the two elders in front of him, Long Ao did not feel the slightest irritation or dissatisfaction. Instead, his heart was filled with warmth.
Long Ao knew very well that whether it was his grandfather or grandmother, they were both concerned about him. Otherwise, the two elders would not be so bored as to come and meddle in his affairs.
"Grandfather, Grandmother, please take a seat."
After the two of them sat down, Long Ao said, "Grandfather, Grandmother, I can say with certainty that the Imperial City will definitely not deal with me when I go to the Imperial City this time."
Long Haoshi seemed to be surprised. He asked, "Why are you so sure?"
"Grandfather, it's simple. If the Imperial City wants to deal with me, they don't have to go through so much trouble and announce it to the world."
Long Haoshi and Mu Wanfeng did not say anything. They just listened quietly.
"Grandfather, the grudge between me and the Imperial City will have to be resolved sooner or later, but now is not the time. If we can form an alliance with the Imperial City and deal with the other three forces together, it will be much easier."
Long Haoshi and Mu Wanfeng seemed to have guessed something. Both of them stared at Long Ao.
"Ao'er, why are you so confident?"
"Intuition."
Intuition?
It was actually intuition. Both Mu Wanfeng and Long Haoshi were somewhat depressed when they heard Ao 'er's words. They really couldn't understand why Ao' er was so confident. If there was even the slightest mistake, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Grandpa, Grandma, you don't have to worry. I have confidence."
The two of them sighed deeply. Things had already come to this point, and there was nothing they could do.
"Ao 'er, I know your character. However, you must promise us that no matter what happens, you must first protect your own life. Do you understand?"
Nodding, Long Ao comforted the two of them. After settling them down, Long Ao didn't immediately set off. Instead, he gathered many people and briefly explained the sect's affairs.
The night was terrifyingly silent.
Long Ao stood quietly on the peak of the mountain, looking at the endless void in front of him alone.
Long Ao had already decided that no matter what the Imperial City's invitation was for, he only had one purpose, and that was to form an alliance with the Imperial City.
Since going against the four forces, Long Ao had thought a lot about it. It would not be easy to defeat the four forces by relying on his and the Dragon Sect's strength alone.
It was precisely because of this that Long Ao was ready to change his strategy and form an alliance with the Imperial City to deal with the three forces.
In fact, Long Ao's intention was very simple. That was to use dogs to fight dogs. When the time came for the Imperial City to deal with the three forces, he would be able to reap the benefits.
A cold wind blew.
"Ao 'er, it's been hard on you."
Without even turning around, Long Ao already knew who had come. He helplessly shrugged and said, "Grandfather, if one day our Long Family can be promoted to a first-class family, will the family be able to bear it?"
Of course, Long Haoshi didn't believe Long Ao's words. He smiled and said, "Ao 'er, I've always only had one wish, and that is for the family to be promoted to a third-class Long Family or for a Dragon Martial Artist to appear in the family. Now, it has finally come true."
Dragon Martial Artist.
If it was in the past, it would be an unreachable existence for the family. But now, he had become a genuine Dragon Martial Artist.
Long Ao knew very well in his heart that his grandfather was already very satisfied with this.
Without continuing, Long Ao silently told himself that no matter what happened in the future, he must lead the family to become a Long family and move into the Dragon Valley. At that time, more and more Dragon Martial Artists would appear in the family.
"Ao 'er, have you ever thought that with the current strength of the family and the Sect, can you really destroy the four major powers?"
With regards to his grandfather's intentions, Long Ao naturally knew clearly. He firmly said, "No matter how many difficulties lie ahead, I will continue to walk forward. I will definitely destroy the Four Great Powers. There will definitely be a place for my Dragon Sect in the Nine Provinces."
Dragon Sect.
Hearing the two words Dragon Sect, Long Haoshi was very worried about one thing. That was, if his grandson would slowly forget about the family as the Dragon Sect grew stronger. Long Haoshi didn't want to see that kind of situation.
"Grandfather, no matter when, I will always be a disciple of the Long Family. This, no matter what happens, will never change."
Hearing Long Ao's words, Long Haoshi's body suddenly trembled. He naturally knew what Long Ao meant by these words. He was very emotional and said, "Ao 'er, grandfather believes in you."
Long Ao's current achievements were no longer something the family could look up to. If Long Ao chose to distance himself from the Long Family, then there was no doubt that the Long Family would be attacked from all sides and fall into a state of eternal damnation.
However, Long Haoshi believed in his grandson. Otherwise, as Ao 'er continued to grow, he would have started to distance himself from the family long ago. However, Ao' er always thought about the family. Just from this point alone, Ao 'er would not abandon the family.
Long Haoshi slowly left because he knew that his grandson would go to the Imperial City tomorrow. There were many things that he needed to think about and he couldn't disturb him.
Just like that, Long Ao was the only person left on the mountain peak. He stood there quietly and looked at the endless dark void in front of him. He thought about all kinds of things in his mind, especially the reason why the Imperial City had invited him.
What did the Imperial City mean?
Although he didn't know what the Imperial City meant, Long Ao was certain that the Imperial City would definitely not do anything to him in the Imperial City.
