Chaos Dao Sheng Jue

Chapter 1388: Win people’s hearts

As soon as the words were spoken, several members of the dragon clan immediately stepped forward, among them a middle-aged cultivator with a face full of anger who spoke first:

"Long Wu, what qualifications do you have to run for clan leader? You are nothing but an unknown member of the Black Dragon Clan. Even your leader lost the election, so what makes you think you can become the clan leader?"

Another older cultivator chimed in, "Indeed, the Dragon Clan Chief must be a person of both talent and virtue, with exceptional strength."

In my opinion, Chief Qingfeng is the most suitable candidate to be the clan leader. Who do you think you are? Get down here right now!

Long Wu stood on the Rising Dragon Platform, a cold smile on his face, unmoved by these words.

He took a deep breath, and suddenly a powerful aura comparable to that of a late-stage Taiqing Xuanxian Realm cultivator erupted from him.

This aura was not only incredibly powerful, but it also contained the aura of the Ancestral Dragon, which shocked everyone present.

Those tribesmen who were just shouting turned ashen-faced after sensing this powerful aura.

They tried to resist, but the overwhelming force had completely subdued them.

A cold glint flashed in Long Wu's eyes, and he waved his hand lightly.

Several beams of light flashed, and those opposing clansmen were instantly killed before they even had a chance to react.

For a moment, the entire Rising Dragon Platform fell into a deathly silence, with only the sound of a gentle breeze, because none of those present had seen how Long Wu had killed those clansmen.

A moment later, murmurs began to rise and fall. "This... how is this possible?" a young dragon member muttered to himself, clearly unable to believe what he was seeing.

The reason was that among those who were instantly killed was a powerful expert whose strength was comparable to the late stage of the Taiqing Xuanxian realm.

"It seems he really came prepared," an old man said in a deep voice, a complex light flashing in his eyes. "However, such methods are a bit too domineering."

“Yes,” another monk chimed in, “While he has indeed displayed astonishing strength, that does not prove that he is fit to be our clan leader.”

At this moment, Qingfeng's face was so gloomy it was almost dripping with water. He clenched his fists so tightly that his nails almost dug into his palms, but he knew he couldn't make any rash moves now.

Long Wu's strength had exceeded his expectations. If he made a rash move, he might also find himself in danger.

On the stage, Lu Chen quietly observed everything, a faint smile playing on his lips. He had full confidence in Long Wu's strength, and at the same time, he knew that this competition had only just begun.

Just as everyone was discussing this, the venerable old man stood up again, and said in a steady and powerful voice:

"Gentlemen, today's matter is of utmost importance. Now that Long Wu has stated his position and demonstrated such formidable strength, we have no choice but to reconsider the manner of this election."

His words calmed the situation somewhat, but also sparked a new round of discussion. Some supported the idea that Long Wu should be given a fair chance to compete;

Some people objected, feeling that this move violated the existing rules and was unfair to the Azure Dragon Clan.

At this critical moment, Long Wu and Lu Chen exchanged a meaningful glance, as if they had already anticipated this and were prepared to deal with it.

At this moment, the highly respected elder stood up, his gaze sharp and piercing, and after surveying the entire room, he said in a deep voice:

"Please hear what I have to say, everyone. The position of clan leader is of paramount importance to our dragon clan. Since a disagreement has arisen, let everyone present vote."

Those who support Long Wu stood behind him, and those who support Qing Feng also stood behind him. This way, it would be an explanation to everyone.

These words immediately sparked a murmur of discussion among the audience. Someone whispered, "It seems Elder Hongsheng is still biased towards Qingfeng. With Qingfeng's prestige, this method is definitely advantageous to him. Who would choose Long Wu, who has no prestige at all?"

However, some people nodded in agreement: "In this way, at least on the surface it looks fair and just. Even if everyone chooses Qingfeng in the end, Long Wu can't use his power to suppress others."

"Is this really appropriate? If we anger Long Wu, it will only increase casualties," an older clansman thought with a frown.

Just as everyone was still hesitating, Long Wu suddenly said loudly, "I have five hundred Five Elements Dao Fruits here. If any tribe supports me, I will distribute them to everyone in proportion."

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire Rising Dragon Platform fell into a deathly silence, followed by a burst of exclamations.

The Five Elements Dao Fruits are legendary rare spiritual treasures that can enhance cultivation and physical strength. Each one is priceless, let alone five hundred! Many people couldn't help but feel greedy, their eyes revealing an undisguised desire.

"My God, five hundred Five Elements Dao Fruits..." a young dragon clan member murmured to himself, a look of surprise on his face.

"Long Wu is really generous, actually taking out so many Five Elements Dao Fruits at once." Another clansman exclaimed excitedly, but he hesitated. After all, there were only five hundred fruits. With his strength, even if he chose the Dragon Clan as the clan leader, he probably wouldn't be able to get them all.

Qingfeng's face instantly turned ashen. He gritted his teeth, a hint of anger and helplessness flashing in his eyes.

He knew that he could never produce such a precious spiritual item to compete with Long Wu.

"Damn it, you're trying to win people over! This is cheating, it's not fair!" Qingfeng roared, his voice filled with resentment.

However, in the face of Qingfeng's accusations, Long Wu simply smiled and did not offer any further explanation.

Lu Chen's original plan was to first give a harsh lesson and then offer a reward. However, due to Elder Hong Sheng's suggestion, the original plan was slightly altered, but this did not affect the final outcome.

Immediately, Long Wu had a thought and took out the Five Elements Dao Fruit he had prepared in advance from his storage ring.

Five hundred Five Elements Dao Fruits were piled up like a mountain, floating in mid-air. Each fruit shimmered with a mysterious light, seemingly containing endless power and the laws of the Dao.

These fruits are about the size of a fist, and their skins shimmer with the colors of the five elements: gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, making them seem like the most precious treasures in the world.

"This...this is the real Five Elements Great Dao Fruit!" someone couldn't help but exclaim, their eyes filled with shock and longing.

Everyone was drawn to the scene before them, their gazes involuntarily drawn to the small mountain made of the Five Elements Dao Fruits.

At this moment, even those who still harbored doubts began to have their resolve slightly shifted upon witnessing these legendary creatures with their own eyes…
