Hence, Long Kuang became a mute. Not only did he become a mute, but even his altruistic tone and expression froze on his face. He felt an indescribable discomfort.
"The cultivation of your entire family is very low. On account of Ao Lan, I can give each of you some pointers in cultivation." Long Kuang suppressed his anger and said in an exceptionally furious tone, "Teaching you a life-saving technique can be considered saving your lives. From now on, we do not owe each other anything!"
Even in death, the proud Dragon Race would not be willing to be criticized by others. Long Kuang was an incomparably proud fellow of the Dragon Race. He could not tolerate having such a reputation on his head. That was even worse than death.
Yang Chen still had a smile on his face, as though he did not think that Long Kuang's words were a threat. If it were any other cultivator, they would have jumped up no matter what. The other party directly said that he wanted the lives of his entire family. Could it be that he would still be amiable?
"That's right!" Long Kuang nodded with a livid expression. "The Dragon Race will never repay kindness with enmity. Take back your words!"
Long Kuang shook his head. There was nothing much to say. Only after Long Kuang made these actions did he realize that his performance was too inferior. What was he doing here? He wanted to use force to make Yang Chen lower his head, to make him take the initiative to get rid of the favor that Ao Lan owed him. How could he let Yang Chen owe him a favor?
This time, Long Kuang no longer said anything. He looked straight at Yang Chen. The answer was already obvious. There was no need for Yang Chen to confirm anything.
"I am very clear on the consequences." Yang Chen did not care about Long Kuang's angry roars. He said very calmly, "A Dragon Race expert who repaid kindness with enmity!"
Long Kuang wanted to take advantage of this opportunity. If he could make Yang Chen turn against him, he could take advantage of the situation. Even if Ao Lan returned at that time, both sides would have their reasons and would not be able to distinguish right from wrong. Naturally, at that time, Long Kuang believed that his relationship with Ao Lan was much closer than that of Yang Chen. He believed that Ao Lan would choose his side. No matter how much Ao Lan owed Yang Chen in the past, after this commotion, both sides would probably no longer have any dealings with each other. The Dragon Race would gain a great advantage out of nowhere, and Yang Chen would suffer a great loss.
But this was not the answer that Long Kuang was looking forward to! He hoped that Yang Chen would be angry, but Yang Chen asked with a smile. He hoped that Yang Chen would lose his mind, but he was the one who almost couldn't handle it. The more arrogant a person was, the more they couldn't tolerate a situation that they couldn't control.
At most, in the future, when Long Kuang remembered, he would have the opportunity to compensate Yang Chen. This was already an exceptional grace. The Dragon Clan had always been high and mighty. Human cultivators usually did not even have the chance to see the Dragon Clan in the Spirit Realm. Long Kuang did not feel that there was anything wrong with this. On the contrary, he enjoyed this kind of nobility that transcended the mortal world. As for whether the cultivators of other races could see them, or whether they would feel flattered after seeing them, he didn't care at all.
However, Yang Chen did not flare up. Instead, he smiled and asked him how he would return the lives of his family. This caused Long Kuang to be at a loss. Although he could still flare up on his own and shed all pretense of cordiality, the result would be completely different.
"Alright!" Yang Chen nodded his head and said to the little concubine beside him, "Call your sisters and let this expert of the Dragon Race give them some pointers!"
"This is enough." Yang Chen nodded his head calmly. He looked at the ferocious look on Long Kuang's face and smiled, "How do you plan on returning the lives of our family?"
Long Kuang's anger had already reached its peak, but he forcefully suppressed his anger because Yang Chen's words were already very clear. If he were to make a move, then he would be repaying kindness with enmity. However, if he did not make a move, then he would not have any temper and could only allow Yang Chen to ridicule him. This was not the result he wanted.
Just as Long Kuang had said before, there were some things that cultivators of other races did not have the qualifications to evaluate. Long Kuang used to have this kind of attitude towards others and it was still the same now. It was just that he was greatly restrained in front of Ao Lan to make her happy.
"Alright!" Yang Chen said indifferently, "I'll take it back. However, are you sure you want to guide my family in cultivation? "
Being looked down upon by Yang Chen, the strongest alchemist in the Spirit Realm, Long Kuang could still barely accept it for the time being. After all, he was planning to use a dishonorable method to renege on his debt. In fact, this kind of thing was not in line with his character. If it was Long Kuang, he would rather die than owe Yang Chen a favor. Unfortunately, the favor was owed by Ao Lan and it was owed for him. Thus, Long Kuang had no choice but to use this method that even he himself despised to resolve it.
However, being able to reluctantly accept being looked down upon by Yang Chen was one thing, but being looked down upon by a concubine by Yang Chen's side was another matter.
Right now, Yang Chen was not facing Long Kuang alone. He had a concubine serving him. Previously, when Long Kuang said those words, the concubine almost could not help but flare up. However, Yang Chen stopped her in time. Now that Yang Chen said this, the concubine also had a look of disdain on her face.
"Or this." Without waiting for Long Kuang to flare up, Yang Chen immediately opened his mouth and took out a solution, "Why don't you follow us and wait until the day you save enough of our family's lives. Then, this matter will be over. How about it?"
"Shut up!" Long Kuang finally flared up and roared, "It looks like you don't realize the seriousness of treating an expert of the dragon race like this!"
"I didn't hear you clearly." Yang Chen acted as if he had heard an inconceivable suggestion. He asked in disbelief, "Are you saying that each of you will give us some pointers in cultivation and teach us a life-saving technique?"
In the cultivation of cultivators, you can deceive people, deceive ghosts, deceive demons, but you can't deceive the heavens and earth, and you can't deceive yourself. If Yang Chen flared up, Long Kuang could confidently retaliate. However, if Yang Chen didn't flare up and Long Kuang flared up, then he would have to bear the reputation of not repaying kindness or even repaying kindness with enmity.
However, he could not say that Yang Chen's response was wrong. He was the one who said that he would use the lives of Yang Chen's family to make up for it. Then, wouldn't it be normal for him to ask how to save their family's lives?
"Nothing to say?" Yang Chen admired Long Kuang's predicament enough before asking, "If you can't take out anything, could it be that you are here to amuse me? Or are you planning to go back on your word? "
Hearing this suggestion, Long Kuang's eyes nearly popped out. What kind of joke was this? If that was the case, wouldn't Long Kuang become the bodyguard of Yang Chen's family? How could a dignified expert of the dragon race become the bodyguard of a group of human juniors? If it wasn't for the fact that Ao Lan owed him a huge favor, Long Kuang wouldn't even want to come into contact with humans. How could he agree to such a condition?
