"Is this what you're calculating?"
The Supreme Emperor coldly looked at the Nether Dragon Supreme and said in a deep voice, "Then let me ask you, how many Venerable Realm martial artists can offset the combat power of a mid-stage Saint Realm martial artist?"
"Offset..."
The Nether Dragon Supreme was taken aback, staring in surprise at the Supreme Emperor, "What do you mean by this, Supreme Senior?"
"If it weren't for Mr. Jiang, do you think I, Elder Wan Chen, and Elder Wu would be standing here?"
The Supreme Emperor sternly said, "You're here calculating combat power with me. Then let me ask you, we have two mid-stage Saint Realm martial artists, and one early-stage Saint Realm martial artist. Your Flame Dragon Group only sent two early-stage Saint Realm martial artists. Can you calculate the power gap between us? Tell me, how many Venerable Realm would it take to fill this gap? Are all of you enough?"
The Nether Dragon Supreme was stunned, opening his mouth but unable to say anything.
Using Venerable Realm experts to offset Saint Realm experts, that's simply an untenable comparison!
If a Saint Realm expert wants to leave, no number of Venerable Realm experts can stop them. Even a hundred Venerable Realm experts trying to besiege a Saint Realm expert is most likely to end with the Saint Realm expert escaping and potentially picking them off one by one. It's impossible to offset like that!
"But... you have already gone to war with the Saint Realm of the Divine Mansion! There's no way to engage with their Venerable Realm experts!" the Nether Dragon Supreme argued.
"What do you mean? The Saint Realm experts we're entangled with aren't the enemy?" the Supreme Emperor shouted angrily.
Both Zhou Wancheng and Wu Qianxun's faces darkened, shooting icy cold glares at the Nether Dragon Supreme.
"Nether Dragon, apologize!" the Supreme Long Huang shouted angrily.
The Nether Dragon Supreme's expression changed, bowing to the Supreme Emperor, "Apologies, Senior, I meant no offense."
"Apologize to Mr. Jiang!" the Supreme Long Huang spoke again.
The Nether Dragon Supreme's brow furrowed, glancing at Jiang Chen and standing there without moving.
"Nether Dragon, you..."
Buzz!
The Supreme Long Huang was thoroughly enraged, a powerful aura suddenly erupted, pressing heavily on the Nether Dragon Supreme.
The Nether Dragon Supreme's expression changed, glaring at the Supreme Long Huang with eyes filled with anger, "Long Huang, what do you mean? You want me, a Supreme, to apologize to him, a mere youth?"
"You scoundrel!" the Supreme Long Huang shouted angrily once more.
"Supreme Long Huang!"
"Stop!"
"What are you trying to do?!"
"Why should I apologize to him?"
Numerous members of the Wei Dragon Squadron called out one after another.
"Enough!" Jiang Chen suddenly shouted, his face turning ashen.
The Supreme Long Huang's heart sank, he urgently said, "Mr. Jiang, the Nether Dragon has been training in secret, his mind is a bit stubborn, please don't take it to heart! I will immediately..."
"How should one be dealt with for not following orders on the battlefield!"
Jiang Chen coldly interrupted the Supreme Long Huang, looking icily at the Nether Dragon Supreme.
The Supreme Long Huang's expression changed dramatically, a trace of worry appearing in his eyes.
"Order? Who appointed you as the leader?" The Nether Dragon Supreme looked directly into Jiang Chen's eyes without a hint of avoidance.
"Nether Dragon!"
The Supreme Long Huang was thoroughly enraged, his inner qi rapidly circulated, an obscure golden light erupted from within him, and a righteous killing intent emanated from his body.
Buzz!
The Supreme Phoenix Luan also burst out with an aura, icily staring at the Nether Dragon Supreme.
A trace of shock appeared in the Nether Dragon Supreme's eyes. He hadn't expected the two Supreme Beings, Long Huang and Phoenix Luan, to unleash a killing intent towards him. His heart skipped a beat.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Suddenly, members of the Wei Dragon First Squad leapt to stand behind the Nether Dragon Supreme, glaring uniformly at the two Supreme Beings.
"Hmph!" the Supreme Emperor coldly snorted.
Buzz, buzz, buzz!
Three mighty auras erupted from the Supreme Emperor and the two, pressing down forcefully on the members of the Wei Dragon Squadron.
Thud, thud!
Thump, thump, thump!
A series of muffled thumping sounds followed as all the early-stage Venerable Realm members knelt. The others were forced back several steps by the auras of the three Supremes.
"Jiang Chen, what are you trying to do? Are you trying to provoke internal strife in front of the army?" The Nether Dragon Supreme called out loudly, somewhat panicked.
Jiang Chen coldly glanced at the Nether Dragon Supreme, saying coldly, "Do you think because you hold the peak of the Venerable Realm power and have a group of people willing to follow you, you can be arrogant without regard for anyone? Do you think that no matter what you do, because of your position, even Dragon Saint Senior and Elder Long won't deal with you?"
"I..."
The expression on the Nether Dragon's face slightly changed, panic gripped his heart, and indeed, that's what he thought.
Moreover, he wasn't unfamiliar with Jiang Chen, he just always felt dissatisfied with Flame Dragon Group's attitude towards Jiang Chen.
He thought the Flame Dragon Group gave Jiang Chen too much face. After all the hard training they did, they didn't receive such attention from the Flame Dragon Group, yet Jiang Chen, an outsider, received such care, making him extremely unbalanced inside.
That's why he targeted Jiang Chen in this way!
"Very well!"
Jiang Chen said indifferently, "You want the command below the Saint Realm, right? Fine, I'll give you the command authority below the Saint Realm regarding the Divine Mansion. However, listen clearly, if any members of the Three Major Organizations within the Divine Mansion escape, you will be the sinner of the Flame Dragon Group, and any harm the three organizations inflict on the Flame Dragon, you will bear part of the responsibility!"
"What...what do you mean?"
The Nether Dragon trembled, panic flashing in his eyes. The hat that Jiang Chen placed on him was too heavy for him to bear!
"What do I mean?"
Jiang Chen sneered, "My point is clear, the only objective of all annihilation actions is to eliminate all members within the stronghold. If even one escapes, the mission is a failure! You want command authority, right? I'll give it to you, but you have to bear the consequences of failure!"
Speaking of this, Jiang Chen shouted angrily, "This operation isn't just your Flame Dragon Group putting in effort; nearly a hundred top forces worldwide have participated. If other forces complete the mission, but you don't here, you will have completely disgraced the Flame Dragon Group!"
Nether Dragon Supreme's face changed dramatically, hurriedly turning to look at the Supreme Long Huang, "Long Huang, is this operation... worldwide?"
"Nonsense! Mr. Jiang is the commander appointed by nearly a hundred top forces worldwide. You dare look down upon him here? What right do you have to look down upon Mr. Jiang?!" the Supreme Long Huang roared.
The expression on the Nether Dragon Supreme's face changed again and again, and the members of the Wei Dragon First Squad were all stunned.
"I'll leave this in your hands then. I won't get in the way here. You've got over a hundred Venerable Realm experts; two mid-level Venerable Realm warriors like us shouldn't matter."
Jiang Chen spoke indifferently, turning to look at Yan Hu, "Hu Zi, you go to Ying Zi, I'll go find Spirit You."
"Yes!"
Yan Hu nodded in response, reaching back to remove the staff on his back and handing it to Jiang Chen, then taking several bottles of elixirs from his backpack and handing them over as well.
