The Beautiful CEO's Dragon Blood Bodyguard-Chapter 2121 - 2120: Drawing the Line

In this world, Dragon-Tiger Mountain truly lives up to its name.

Yihu Mountain stands proud with its head raised, crouched on the ground, surrounded by a stream of clear water.

The Daoist Sect considers water as the dragon, perfectly matching the words "dragon" and "tiger".

This stream is over a thousand meters wide.

After taking a photo together, Long Fei and Lin Yingying walked hand in hand across the water.

Ma Tengfei followed behind with three wolves, continuously treading waves on the clear surface of the water.

Zhang Ziheng led over a thousand elite disciples, waiting drowsily in front of the mountain gate, when someone suddenly shouted, "Someone’s coming!"

A group of people instantly stood up, drawing the longswords in their hands.

Long Fei and the two others approached on foot, and after crossing ashore, they faced the disciples head-on.

Someone nervously exclaimed, "Senior brother, what should we do now?"

Zhang Ziheng instructed, "You guys go hide in the Formation first, go up and notify the Sect Leader. I’ll go meet them."

The group of disciples nodded their heads, immediately retreating to hide inside the Stone Paifang up the hill.

The Formation activated, flashing with Mysterious Light on the mountain path.

Zhang Ziheng approached with his sword, cupping his fist in greeting towards Long Fei and Lin Yingying, "Sect Leader Long, long time no see."

Long Fei nodded with a smile, asking him, "Where is your Sect Leader? I’m here to pay my respects to the mountain, please have him come down to meet me."

Zhang Ziheng raised his eyebrows and said, "Sect Leader Long, I’ve dealt with you many times, so let me call you Brother Long! Previously, during a discussion within the sect, we deliberated on how to deal with your arrival. I proposed that we reconcile with you, but the Sect Leader scolded me and sent me down the mountain with the disciples to defend. Those old stubborn folks on the mountain have already made their decision to fight to the death with you. You came to the mountain to pay your respects, but you surely won’t make it up without a fight."

Lin Yingying chuckled, "So, are you here to stop us?"

She had paid respects to mountain gates three times but had never been so courteously greeted by the enemy, even calling Long Fei their brother?

This indeed was quite amusing.

Zhang Ziheng kept a serious face, "Sect Leader’s Wife, although we’ve had conflicts before, I’ve long understood the current situation. I’m willing to turn to the light and stand by your side. With Dragon-Tiger Mountain broken, I only hope Brother and Sect Leader’s Wife will let me keep a couple of tiles."

Long Fei, well aware of Zhang Ziheng’s character, where he argues the most during battles but flees the fastest, found his immediate defection a bit hard to accept.

Lin Yingying didn’t like such traitors, but one doesn’t hit a smiling face.

When someone surrenders, you can’t just beat them up.

Long Fei, however, encouraged the traitor, "It’s not easy for you to think this way, although you are driven by circumstances now, you’ll realize later that you’ve made a very correct decision."

"Thank you, Sect Leader, for your praise, I know what to do."

Zhang Ziheng nodded repeatedly, full of flattery.

He immediately went back, found the defense Array Plate on the mountain path, and directly opened the defense barrier here.

The mountain-guarding barrier of Dragon-Tiger Mountain is similar to that of Mount Mao, where a Formation is laid out on the mountain path.

However, Mount Mao uses talisman methods, while Dragon-Tiger Mountain uses implement methods.

Every blade of grass, every stone here could have been refined into magical weapons by Dragon-Tiger Mountain.

When walking on it, one could easily get injured by these things if not careful.

Now, the mountain-guarding Formation is shut down.

These things become ordinary then.

Zhang Ziheng stood with his sword on top of it, lightly shouting to the group of disciples, "Everyone on Dragon-Tiger Mountain, Sect Leader Long visits us, we must receive him with courtesy, and who shall not act rashly."

"Huh?"

"What?"

"What’s up with Senior Brother?"

"Letting this Demon Chief up the mountain?"

"..."

The group of disciples stood dumbfounded for a moment and collectively turned to look at Zhang Ziheng.

Zhang Ziheng scolded, "Didn’t you hear my words? Those who want to live, move aside now."

The disciples usually following him nodded repeatedly and immediately made way.

Most of the disciples remained where they were, holding their swords, cursing at Zhang Ziheng, "Zhang Ziheng, what do you mean by this?"

"Zhang Ziheng, are you yielding to this Demon Chief?"

"Zhang Ziheng, the Sect Leader has not been unkind to you, yet you’re still a traitor!"

"..."

The disciples began cursing, pointing their swords at each other.

Zhang Ziheng coldly said, "I advise you not to make needless sacrifices. The old Dragon-Tiger Mountain is over, and the new Dragon-Tiger Mountain is about to be reborn. Don’t go against the heavens and throw away your lives."

Someone outright cursed, "Zhang Ziheng betrayed Dragon-Tiger Mountain, kill him!"

"Kill this traitor!"

"Kill!"

"..."

The group immediately acted, launching their swords towards Zhang Ziheng.

They are different from Mount Shu, directly throwing their magical treasures into the fight.

The sword light flickered, mixed with the light of various magical treasures, suddenly buzzing and blasting on the mountain path.

Ma Tengfei widened his eyes at the sight, not expecting such a scene.

They came to pay respects and hadn’t even made a move, yet the other side started fighting amongst themselves first.

Lin Yingying looked at Long Fei, filled with many doubts.

She knew Long Fei harbored a grudge with the Six Major Sects at Chang’an City, but she didn’t understand why Long Fei insisted on spending effort to suppress the Six Major Sects.

Isn’t making a name known to the world something that happens without having to personally make the trip?

Long Fei, however, with an expression of delight, watched the commotion from below the mountain. Suddenly, someone from above shouted, "Stop, have you all gone mad?"

Sect Leader Zhang Changling, leading a group of elders, came down, seeing the sect disciples fighting as a group, with a dozen already lying in pools of blood, furrowing his brow.

A disciple shouted at him, "Sect Leader, Zhang Ziheng has rebelled!"

"Sect Leader, Zhang Ziheng has betrayed Dragon-Tiger Mountain!"

"..."

They raised their swords and collectively retreated, pulling to Zhang Changling’s side.

Zhang Ziheng, with his baffled companions, moved down to Long Fei’s side.

The Sect Leader stared at Zhang Ziheng from above, full of disbelief.

Zhang Kun was even more surprised, thinking this kid really did turn?

The Third Elder shouted, "Zhang Ziheng, you are too presumptuous. The Sect Leader treated you as his own child, how could you do such a disgraceful act?"

Zhang Ziheng coldly said, "Third Elder, how the Sect Leader treats me, you all know well. The pill brought by the ancestor from Flame Emperor Palace could have helped me break through to the Unity Realm Stage. But you kept it, intending for your descendants to take it. Your favoritism and neglect have long discouraged the disciples of Dragon-Tiger Mountain."

"You treacherous disciple!"

The Sect Leader turned pale, presumably infuriated, his aura turning chaotic.

Zhang Ziheng raised his sword and exclaimed, "The old Dragon-Tiger Mountain is about to die, I want to sever ties with you old fossils. Elder Zhang Kun, kill this hypocritical Sect Leader, and we will serve you as our leader."

His remark made everyone immediately wary of Zhang Kun, quickly summoning their magical treasures to defend themselves, instantly distancing themselves from Zhang Kun.

Zhang Kun stood above, speechless, and called out, "Everyone, do not act rashly. My loyalty to Dragon-Tiger Mountain is unswerving, how could I follow this traitor’s lead? This is all his own doing; it has nothing to do with me!"

He knew Zhang Ziheng was deliberately trying to drag him into the water.

He wouldn’t fall for it; to defect, that must only happen when the time is right.

Defecting now would make him a thorn in the side of all Dragon-Tiger Mountain, sure to be the first to be removed.
