Chapter 1420: Chapter 1420

"Dragon Group? Azure Dragon?"

Tang Ming looked puzzled and shook his head, "Sorry, I’ve never heard of them."

Hearing these words, Tang Ming felt confused deep inside, suddenly recalling the martial arts tournament when, apart from the Imperial City’s elite and the forces of the Ming Group and Dark Group, there was a group of mysterious figures who never showed their faces but monitored the entire tournament.

Could those people be from the Dragon Group?

"Heh, with your identity, naturally, you wouldn’t be qualified to know about the Dragon Group and me."

Azure Dragon sneered coldly and ignored Tang Ming, "Yun Feiyang, Yan Nantian, you are in charge of managing the Dark Group and Ming Group, and now you’ve caused such chaos. Do you know your crime?"

"Envoy, I’m innocent, I’ve been in seclusion all along; it’s these people who have been causing trouble for the Ming Group, and now the Ming Group has suffered great damage. If you don’t punish them, I...I won’t accept it."

Yan Nantian gritted his teeth and shouted.

"Yan Nantian, don’t be the villain who complains first. If it weren’t for your Ming Group doing so many cruel and unjust things, how would this conflict have arisen?"

Yun Feiyang quickly defended, pulling out a file from his pocket and handing it to Azure Dragon, "Envoy, please look at this material, the cause and process of this incident are all contained within, with verified testimonies and evidence that you can check yourself."

Azure Dragon raised his hand, and the file flew into it, then began to carefully read it.

Seeing this scene, Yan Nantian inwardly cursed Yun Feiyang as a cunning old fox who had come prepared, while he could only feign pity to garner sympathy.

The sudden event left him clueless when he confronted Tang Ming after coming out of seclusion; he hadn’t even figured out what had happened.

"Young brother, I came a few days late because I foresaw someone above would intervene in this matter, so I specifically prepared these materials."

Yun Feiyang smugly explained to Tang Ming.

"Senior indeed thinks things through thoroughly."

Tang Ming nodded repeatedly; although he didn’t know what Azure Dragon and the Dragon Group were all about, seeing the two major heads of the Dark Group and Ming Group so afraid of them, plus knowing the opponent was a Martial General, he knew they were unwise to provoke.

While Azure Dragon read the materials, no one dared to make a loud sound. Everyone held their breath, waiting for the result.

"If these matters are true, then this should be the grievance between Tang Ming and the Ming Group."

A few minutes later, Azure Dragon slowly raised his head, coldly gazing at Yun Feiyang, "You, as the head of the Dark Group, failed to prevent the tragedy from the start, which was a dereliction of duty, and then you kicked the Ming Group when it was down, causing it to become . Do you know your crime?"

"This... I acknowledge my wrongdoing."

Yun Feiyang, despite being internally discontented, could only bow and accept his mistake.

"Acknowledging your crime is good."

Azure Dragon nodded and suddenly raised his hand, striking Yun Feiyang with a palm.

Yun Feiyang’s body flew backward, his chest caved in significantly, and he fell to the ground, vomiting blood profusely.

Seeing Yun Feiyang punished, Yan Nantian immediately laughed gleefully.

"Yan Nantian, you indulged your subordinates’ reckless behavior, making your crime even greater."

Azure Dragon coldly looked at Yan Nantian.

"I confess my wrongs."

Yan Nantian’s face changed drastically, quickly bowing his head, not daring to speak.

"Seeing that you’ve already been severely injured, I won’t punish you further. Be mindful in the future."

Azure Dragon did not attack Yan Nantian.

"Envoy, then Tang Ming killed many people from my Ming Group; how should he be dealt with?"

Yan Nantian hurriedly asked.

"In the Urban System, Nine-star Martial Masters are untouchable. Your Ming Group knowingly provoked him despite this, and now faced retaliation; you have only yourselves to blame. Furthermore, for massacring a Martial Arts Sect, I should annihilate you based on this one deed alone."

Azure Dragon squinted his eyes, a gleam flashing within.

"I-I know my mistake."

Yan Nantian jumped in fright, not daring to speak further.

"Tang Ming, although your reasons for avenging the Ming Group are sufficient, you must provide an account for slaughtering so many from the Ming Group."

Finally, Azure Dragon looked at Tang Ming.

"With all these injuries I have, how am I supposed to account for it?"

Tang Ming pointed to his face, "And those women harmed at Heavenly Cloud Palace, along with my relatives—who will account for them?"

"I don’t want to bother with past events; since both parties have suffered losses, you’d best not kill each other in the future. If this kind of large-scale battle is triggered again, I surely won’t spare you."

Azure Dragon frowned slightly, coldly staring at Tang Ming, "Simply put, you are not to cause trouble for the Ming Group anymore, and this matter ends here. Do you agree?"

"Ridiculous! If I don’t trouble them, what if they come to trouble me?"

Tang Ming dissatisfiedly curled his lips, "Do you expect me, a dignified Nine-star Martial Master, to be humiliated by them?"

"Provided they have a brain, they should not trouble you anymore."

Azure Dragon glanced around, speaking in an unhurried manner.

"Heh, I’m just afraid someone might do something brainless. What then?"

Tang Ming chuckled coldly, initially thinking this envoy was siding with him, but it turned out he just wanted him to back down.

"If someone with no brains still makes a move, then you handle it yourself."

Azure Dragon thought for a moment, shrugging indifferently.

"Fine, I’ll give you a face and let them go today."

Tang Ming nodded, though unwilling, there was nothing he could do with such a super strong figure intervening.

"Do you have any objections to my handling now?"

Azure Dragon glanced around, asking indifferently.

Yan Nantian and Yun Feiyang quickly nodded; each received a slap, which seemed fair.

"Now that the Ming Group headquarters is destroyed, head to the Dark Group headquarters to meet."

With those words, Azure Dragon disappeared.

After Azure Dragon left, Tang Ming and the others felt relieved and slumped to the ground.

"My goodness, who on earth is that person, so powerful?"

Tang Ming wiped away cold sweat, puzzled, and looked at Yun Feiyang, "Wasn’t it said there’s no Martial General in the Urban System? Why did one suddenly appear?"

"Oh well, I’ll explain in detail on our way back. This time was really risky; I thought the envoy would directly eliminate you."

Yun Feiyang muttered in relief.

"Why would he eliminate me? I did nothing wrong."

Tang Ming rolled his eyes, discontentedly mumbling, "Ming Group committed atrocities first, and he didn’t intervene. Now that we’re succeeding, he’s interfering—it’s meddling."

"Brother, he’s the envoy, handling Ming Group and Dark Group disputes. As the instigator, and having caused so many deaths in the Ming Group, even if he doesn’t kill you, he should ruin you."

Yun Feiyang exasperatedly shrugged, vexed, "But I ended up being the one injured. It really stinks."

"Forget it, let’s leave here first."

Tang Ming took a glance at Yan Nantian approaching Fu Tianyou and the others, supported Yun Feiyang, and walked away.
