"These are the sect leaders and elders of the other great sects. Their imprisonment doesn't change that fact. How can you not accord them basic respect?" thundered Luo Long furiously. "How dare you humiliate them in this manner!"
His furious roar sent the disciples falling to their knees. They had not expected Luo Long to fly into such a rage for these prisoners.
These prisoners who were currently sitting on the ground, with their faces dirtied and their hair in disarray, were elders like Luo Long too.
They might have been captured and imprisoned, but they should not be abused in such a manner.
"Hm?" Luo Long turned around and narrowed his eyes when he saw Jiang Ning still standing. "You don't think you've done anything wrong, do you?"
"What I think doesn't matter. What matters is what Elder Luo Long thinks is right," said Jiang Ning mildly as he looked Luo Long in the eye.
He had not expected Luo Long's reaction.
He remembered that Luo Long had been the crazy extremist amongst them all. Yet, now, he was showing compassion to the other sects' sect leaders and elders. He seemed a changed man.
When he heard Jiang Ning's words, Luo Long fell into a long silence before finally speaking. "It's you. You managed to infiltrate Tianlian Sect within such a short period of time."
An icy glint flashed in Luo Long's eyes. He stared at Jiang Ning quietly instead of launching an attack or calling for reinforcements to arrest Jiang Ning.
Luo Long walked up to the disciples who had delivered the meals. Then, with a sudden raise of his hand, he hit them right in their crowns, shattering their skulls and killing them on the spot.
The prisoners were stunned by the sight.
They had no idea what Luo Long was up to. They couldn't believe that he had killed his own men without even batting an eyelid.
"Are you trying to keep my presence a secret?" said Jiang Ning. "You might actually stand a chance if you try and seize me now."
"You underestimate me," said Luo Long. He approached the prisoners and said in a deep voice. "My fellow comrades, Tianlian Sect has no intention of causing offense to you. You're here because someone has set us up. I only have one question right now."
Luo Long turned towards Elder Ting Feng. "Who killed Master Ting?"
His eyes flashed sharply as he waited for the answer to the only question that he cared about right now.
