Chapter 1487: Chapter 1486 Cao Family

After the Piranha Special Operations Team defeated the Lone Wolf Special Forces Team, Lin Dong didn’t stay long at the War Department.

He skipped the afternoon’s competition because he had received a call from Uncle Long Ying.

They said they were in the Capital City.

Lin Dong felt helpless about this; he had specifically instructed them not to come to the Capital when he first arrived.

Unexpectedly, they didn’t listen at all.

He left the War Department to meet Uncle Long Ying and the others.

He quickly arrived at a courtyard.

This courtyard was one of Longmen’s assets in the Capital City.

After Lin Dong arrived, he found not only Uncle Long Ying there but also Ye Xiong and his son Ye Wuyou.

Upon seeing them, he couldn’t help but say, "Uncle Long Ying, Captain Ye, didn’t I ask you not to come?"

Uncle Long Ying and the others knelt on the ground. "Dragon Lord, we belong to Longmen. Please let us face life and death with you?"

"Yes, Dragon Lord. We are already old. What does death matter?" Ye Xiong added.

Lin Dong quickly helped them up, sighing inwardly.

But he was more moved than anything else.

Having a group of people willing to follow him to death, he had no regrets about being the Dragon Lord.

He didn’t say much afterward.

To refuse any further would seem awkward.

Seeing that Lin Dong had nothing more to say, Uncle Long Ying and the others were very happy.

Uncle Long Ying said, "Dragon Lord, Longmen also has a branch here in the Capital."

Ye Xiong added, "The leader of the Longmen Capital Branch is the Left Protector, Cao Yuan, who is on par with me!"

"Cao Yuan and I became sworn brothers years ago. We have a very good relationship. His strength is even greater than mine."

"The last time I saw him, he had the strength of a Third Stage Grandmaster. I wonder how his skills have held up over the years."

Lin Dong knew of Cao Yuan’s existence before, but he hadn’t looked for him since he arrived in the Capital.

Firstly, because he didn’t have time.

Secondly, he didn’t feel it was necessary before.

But now that Uncle Long Ying, Ye Xiong, and the others had come, he felt it wouldn’t be right not to contact the Longmen Capital Branch.

So he nodded and said, "Okay."

"We should not delay; let’s go to Cao Yuan today," Ye Xiong said.

Uncle Long Ying nodded, "Our Shadow Gate has received information that Captain Cao is not in a good situation lately; it seems he has run into some trouble. Let’s see if we can help him resolve it."

"Oh? Trouble? What kind of trouble?" Lin Dong asked unconsciously.

"It seems some overseas enemy has come seeking revenge..." Uncle Long Ying explained.

"Then let’s hurry to the Cao family!"

The group set off for the Cao family.

...

At the moment, at the Cao family.

The Cao family was a native noble family of the Capital, their ancestors being part of the Capital City’s Martial Arts Family.

Although they couldn’t compare to top-tier big families like the Lin Family from the Capital City, they were still a powerful presence in the Capital.

Naturally, they were far more formidable than the families of the Capital Eight Young Masters.

The current head of the Cao family, Cao Yuan, had received kindness from Lin Dong’s father, Lin Zhantian, in his youth and greatly admired Lin Zhantian.

More than twenty years ago, when he was still a youth, to follow Lin Zhantian, he joined Longmen.

He gained Lin Zhantian’s trust and, with his exceptional martial arts talent, Lin Zhantian gave him significant support.

At a young age, he had been appointed as one of the eighteen sect leaders of the Longmen’s Capital Branch.

And concurrently held the position of the Left Protector of Longmen!

This position in Longmen was one where he stood below one person but above tens of thousands.

He truly deserved this position!

Cao Yuan had achieved a breakthrough to the Earth Realm martial artists quite early, and now he had even reached the strength of a Fourth Stage Grandmaster.

Additionally, he was also a grandmaster of Xingyi Fist!

It was because of this that a while ago, he participated in the assessment organized by the Martial Arbiters to seek to become one of the Six Elders of Martial Arbiters.

After the death of Old Gong, his position had long been coveted by many, hence many aspired to attain it.

Among them, Cao Yuan was the strongest.

Yet, even so, while he ultimately passed the Martial Arbiters’ assessment,

he also sustained injuries in that battle!

Ordinarily, this would be trivial, as long as he recuperated peacefully for three months, his injuries would recover.

But coincidentally, at this juncture, one of his enemies sought him out.

That enemy’s name was Hong Tai!

Hong Tai was previously an Earth Realm martial artist but because of his grudge with Cao Yuan, they had agreed to a duel outside the Great Wall ten years ago.

They fought outside the Great Wall for three days and nights, and eventually, Hong Tai was defeated by Cao Yuan and fled overseas.

After his defeat, Hong Tai went to Southborne.

In Southborne, over ten years, he joined one of the three major forces, the Nanyang Martial Union, and incredibly rose to become the deputy leader of the Nanyang Martial Union.

In the Nanyang Martial Union, he too was a figure who stood below one person but above tens of thousands.

Recently, he returned to his country seeking revenge, and three days ago, he sent a ’Martial Alliance War Book’ to Cao Yuan, seeking to avenge the battle from ten years ago.

This ’Martial Alliance War Book’ is a universally recognized form of fair challenge in the World Martial Arts Community.

As long as there is such a ’Martial Alliance War Book’, even if foreign martial artists enter the boundaries of Dragon Country, other martial artists within Dragon Country cannot obstruct them.

Even the Martial Arbiters and Dragon Country War Department cannot interfere.

At this moment, at the main gate of the Cao family, Hong Tai was issuing a challenge.

"Cao Yuan, dare you come out for a battle!"

A voice as loud as thunder resonated, reaching into the Cao family.

Cao Yuan, the head of the Cao family, was currently healing in the ancestral home and was truly unable to respond to the challenge.

His daughter, Cao Jianjia, along with a group of people, arrived at the main gate of the Cao family.

So it turned out that Cao Jianjia, one of the four beauties of the Capital City, was actually the daughter of the Left Protector of Longmen, Cao Yuan.

No wonder she appeared so surprised when she recognized Lin Dong before, although at that time, she didn’t reveal her identity to Lin Dong.

At this moment, she led many experts of the Cao family out.

She looked towards Hong Tai hovering in mid-air and said solemnly, "My father is not at home; please leave, Senior Hong."

"Not at home? Haha, I think Cao Yuan is just scared, right? Cao Yuan, you are nothing but a turtle hiding its head, afraid to come out and fight!" Hong Tai declared loudly.

Hearing the other party insult her father, Cao Jianjia shouted, "Hong, you must have known that my father was injured, that’s why you deliberately chose this time to challenge him!"

"When my father was not injured, you never dared to challenge him. The real turtle hiding its head is you!"

"Noisy!" Hong Tai shouted angrily and sent a palm strike towards Cao Jianjia.

"Clang!"

Though he had not used his full force, if it were someone below the Half-Step Earth Realm, they would certainly be unable to block his strike.

"Boom!" However, at that moment, Cao Jianjia unexpectedly condensed a Giant Shadow Clone, blocking his strike.

"Ah? You young lady, merely in your twenties, are actually a Half-Step Earth Realm martial artist. What a monstrous talent." Hong Tai could not help but exclaim.

"This damnable Cao Yuan, to have a daughter like you. How unjust this world is!"

Hong Tai’s expression turned cold, and he made another palm strike towards Cao Jianjia.

"Die! Cao Yuan does not deserve to have a daughter with such talent!"
