Since Ouyang Fei and Tang Lin had already said so, could he really not agree?
Shrugging his shoulders helplessly, Long Ao finally agreed.
"Brother Long, I will send Luo Cheng to help you when you go to the Thunder Empire to participate in the Thunder Battle."
Luo Cheng, the Vice Hall Master of the National Guard Hall, was also an evolver. His position in the National Guard Hall was second only to Tang Lin.
Because of this, it felt strange to say it out loud. Long Ao had only just entered the National Guard Hall, but Luo Cheng was already the Vice Hall Master. And now?
Tang Lin had already said that Long Ao would be the main person in this trip to the Thunder Empire to participate in the Thunder Battle. Luo Cheng would only be a support. Of course, Long Ao would not agree to such a thing.
However, Tang Lin was very firm and did not give Long Ao a chance to refute. He continued, "Brother Long, the Thunder Battle will officially start in a month. Originally, we were going to set off immediately, but …"
"Hall Master, we will set off immediately for the Thunder Empire."
At this moment, Long Ao seemed like he could not wait any longer. There was a thousand-year-old Thunder Fruit in the Thunder Empire. Only by obtaining this Thunder Fruit could he save Yu Yin.
Although there was still a month before the Thunder Fruit ripened, no one knew if it would ripen ahead of time. Therefore, Long Ao did not dare to gamble. Yu Yin only had a year. If he lost this opportunity, he would have to wait a thousand years. Even if he could wait, Yu Yin could not.
Because of this, Long Ao had already told himself that no matter what danger he would encounter, no matter what happened, he would obtain the Thunder Fruit.
"Alright, then let's set off immediately."
Long Ao found his grandfather, Long Haoshi, and said a few words before leaving Scarlet Fire Town with the others.
This time, Long Ao had killed Liu Mu and Liu Ji. The Nebula Imperial Family was not displeased at all. Instead, they had given the position of the City Lord to Long Ao's father, Long Yi. This was a clear indication of the Nebula Imperial Family's attitude.
With the deterrence of the Nebula Imperial Family, Long Ao knew that the Flowing Cloud Sect would not dare to touch his family.
It was precisely because of this that Long Ao left with peace of mind.
Two days later, everyone had returned to the Star Cloud City. The news of the Star Cloud Imperial Family's National Guard Hall participating in the Thunder Empire's Battle of Thunder had spread throughout the entire Star Cloud City. No matter what, all the major families still hoped that the Star Cloud National Guard Hall would emerge victorious. This was because only when the kingdom became stronger, these so-called families could also become stronger.
Inside the National Guard Hall.
"No, Hall Master. If you do this, I won't accept it. I believe everyone here won't accept it either."
Yu Wei almost roared in anger. Last time, he had been defeated by Long Ao, and Yu Wei had always been brooding over it. Now, before he could even take his revenge, the Hall Master had told them that this time, in the Thunder Empire, to participate in the Thunder Battle, Long Ao had become the boss. How could he accept this?
It wasn't just Yu Wei. The other Imperial Protectors all disagreed, and they were all infuriated.
The ten people who went to the Thunder Empire to participate in the Thunder Battle were Long Ao, Luo Cheng, Yu Wei, Mao Feng, Tong Bo, Hao Jiangjun, Hao Chao, Ye Rong, Lin Yiyi, and Wang Huan.
As the Deputy Hall Master, there was no doubt that Luo Cheng would become the boss this time, but what was the result?
There was another point that everyone felt unconvinced. That was, among the ten people, Long Ao's strength was the lowest. Although he defeated Yu Wei, what about the others? One must know that in the National Guard Hall, there were many people who were stronger than Yu Wei.
Tong Bo, the most powerful person in the National Guard Hall, also said with some dissatisfaction, "Hall Master, I want to ask, what qualifications does Long Ao have to lead us to participate in the Thunder Battle?"
"Brother Tong is right. In my opinion, Long Ao doesn't even have the qualifications to participate in the Thunder Battle."
The muzzles were unanimously pointed at Long Ao. In everyone's opinion, even if Long Ao defeated Yu Wei, he did not get everyone's approval. One by one, the National Guard did not agree with Long Ao to participate in the Thunder Battle.
A One-Line-Sky martial artist might be normal in the National Guard Hall of a small kingdom, but for the powerful Nebula Kingdom, there was no One-Line-Sky martial artist in the entire National Guard Hall. If Long Ao participated in the Thunder Battle on behalf of the Nebula National Guard Hall, he would definitely be laughed at by the National Guard Halls of other kingdoms.
Tang Lin sat quietly at the head of the table. When everyone was quarreling, he suddenly said, "Everyone, calm down."
As the National Guard Hall Master, Tang Lin's identity and strength were there. Seeing Tang Lin speak, everyone kept silent.
After a glance, Tang Lin asked, "How can you accept Long Ao's participation in the Thunder Battle?"
Although he was the National Guard Hall Master, Tang Lin did not suppress everyone with his identity. After all, the National Guard Hall relied on unity. Even if someone left, they could do better anywhere.
"Hall Master, I believe you know better than us what the Thunder Battle means."
"That's right. The Thunder Battle represents the kingdom's glory. If Long Ao participates in the Thunder Battle, won't he become a joke?"
Long Ao, who was sitting at the side, did not say a word from beginning to end. He did not even bother to look at everyone. If it were not for Tang Lin and Ouyang Fei, he would not even participate in the Thunder Battle.
It was because of Long Ao's disregard that everyone became angrier. But when they saw Long Ao's white hair, many people were surprised. After asking around, they found out about the matter between Long Ao and Yu Yin.
Although they looked down on Long Ao, everyone admired this kind of infatuated man. How many men in this world could have their hair turn white overnight for their woman?
He was dressed in black, had white hair, and a stern face.
"Master, we agree that it's not difficult for Long Ao. As long as he can defeat Brother Hao, we will not object."
Hao Chao was recognized as the top expert in the National Guard Hall other than the three hall masters. He was at the peak of evolution. Was it possible for Long Ao to defeat Hao Chao?
Tang Lin was not a fool. Of course, he knew that everyone just wanted to make Long Ao retreat. He sighed deeply in his heart. Although he was a little unhappy, he could not force it. Otherwise, there would not be any benefits. It might even cause chaos in the National Guard Hall.
"We agree with Brother Yu's suggestion. As long as Long Ao can defeat Brother Hao, we will not have the slightest objection. On the contrary, if Long Ao loses, not only will he not be able to participate in the Thunder Battle, but he will also have to withdraw from the National Guard Hall. From then on, he will not be able to step into the National Guard Hall."
"Okay, I agree."
Without waiting for Tang Lin to speak, Long Ao directly accepted the challenge because he did not want to listen anymore. He continued, "Tomorrow, outside the National Guard Hall, I will fight with Hao Chao. If I win, I hope you all will shut up."
Black clothes and white hair, standing there arrogantly and indifferently, exuding a strong sense of confidence. He did not care about anyone at all. Nodding at Tang Lin, Long Ao turned and left. He did not put anyone in his eyes. In the blink of an eye, Long Ao had disappeared without a trace.
