950: Taking over the captaincy and being besieged

Inside Jiaolong Valley.

About the time it takes for one stick of incense to burn before the Secret Realm opens.

On Dragon Head Mountain, inside the light barrier, Du Xingchen and the others were already fully prepared.

Their gazes would occasionally turn towards Wen Xiu Cheng in the central area, who was still receiving the inheritance.

Currently, it seemed that the inheritance Wen Xiu Cheng was receiving had also reached its final stage.

"Whoosh~"

A cool breeze suddenly blew into this enclosed space.

The golden light enveloping Wen Xiu Cheng gradually faded and entered his body.

"Roar!!"

Behind Wen Xiu Cheng, as the violent Dragon Martial Soul appeared, it suddenly let out that roar, imbued with a sense of transformation!

"The God's inheritance has been fully absorbed!" Sun Yingying looked at Wen Xiu Cheng, her voice carrying a slight emotional fluctuation.

"Wen Xiu Cheng, how are your injuries? Are they all healed?" Qing Youyu stepped forward to ask.

"It's nothing, they're all healed," Wen Xiu Cheng felt the power within his body and reassured Qing Youyu.

As he clenched his fist, he could even sense the significant increase in his own formidable strength!

"My Cultivation progress for the Fourth Soul Token has now reached the perfect stage, and after absorbing the Fifth Soul Card, the accumulated energy surge might even allow me to directly break through to the mid-stage of Five-Star Soul Card Master!"

Wen Xiu Cheng assessed his gains from this trip.

His mood was much better than before.

Of course.

This was mainly due to escaping the Demon Hall and reuniting with his teammates.

"What should we do next?" After learning that Wen Xiu Cheng's condition had completely stabilized, Qing Youyu's mood also eased, and she turned to ask.

"Next? Next, of course, we're going to settle the score with Moyun and the Demon Hall!" Wen Xiu Cheng's decision was simple and decisive.

"Let's think about how to escape in a bit," Du Xingchen said, taking over the conversation after Wen Xiu Cheng finished speaking.

"Escape?" Hearing this, Wen Xiu Cheng looked at Du Xingchen, who had made the suggestion in front of him, and couldn't help but frown, "What's going on?"

After his question was asked, the person who answered was Liangcai Sword, who was leaning against a tree, "During the time you were receiving the inheritance, the people outside have already discovered our location."

"Now that you've finished receiving the entire inheritance, the light barrier protecting us will also disappear in a few minutes. At that time, the several teams of Heaven's Chosen waiting outside like tigers eyeing their prey will definitely launch an attack on us."

"As the Captain, you should be thinking about how to deal with this for everyone now."

Liangcai Sword's tone was less frivolous than usual, with more calmness and rationality.

"We've been targeted?" Wen Xiu Cheng's brow furrowed, "Is it the people from the Demon Hall?"

"Not just them, there's a high possibility that there are other teams as well," Liangcai Sword added, "Fortunately, Xingchen also called a strong team from outside to help us, which can significantly reduce our pressure."

"Called a strong team to help us?" Wen Xiu Cheng looked at Du Xingchen again.

"It's the Heaven's Chosen from the Linshan Country Royal Family."

"Then that's great!" Wen Xiu Cheng said with some excitement, "With the Heaven's Chosen from the Linshan Country Royal Family helping us, we can definitely take on the Demon Hall!"

"What's there to run from? Everyone's strength has improved by a level now, isn't it better to just kill those guys from the Demon Hall one by one?"

When Wen Xiu Cheng spoke of killing the Demon Hall's Heaven's Chosen, he was clearly gritting his teeth.

In just a few days, he had suffered greatly at the hands of the Demon Hall.

He couldn't wait to get revenge for this hatred right now!

"We can certainly handle a Demon Hall team if we attack together with the Heaven's Chosen from the Linshan Country Royal Family, but what if other teams attack us as well? For example, the Divine Hall and Outer Sea Pavilion who fought with the Demon Hall before, there's a high probability that these two sides are also waiting outside for us to come out. From their perspective, we must have a lot of good things on us from the inheritance Secret Realm," Liangcai Sword said with a frown.

"All the good things were clearly taken by Moyun, if they want them, they should go find Moyun. What are we afraid of?"

"Why don't you tell the people outside that and see if they believe you?" As Liangcai Sword spoke, a hint of disappointment appeared in his eyes, disappointment towards Wen Xiu Cheng as a Captain.

"Am I the Captain or are you the Captain? Why is it that every single one of you wants to refute whatever I say?" Wen Xiu Cheng suddenly became a little agitated and angry, "It was one thing for Moyun to give random orders on Jiaolong Mountain, but now even you want to take over my position as Captain, teach me how to do things, and teach me how to lead everyone?!"

"I've led you for several years, doesn't that prove my leadership ability?!"

"Wen Xiu Cheng," Qing Youyu comforted him helplessly.

"You've indeed been quite disappointing lately, and you are also not suitable to be our Captain right now," Liangcai Sword followed Wen Xiu Cheng's words and calmly stated something that the other party couldn't calmly respond to.

"I'm not suitable to be the Captain, so are you?! Liangcai Sword, you hide things so deeply, Moyun only dared to give orders secretly and play little tricks, but you're coming at me openly like this!"

"I'm not suitable to be the Captain either," Liangcai Sword's statement as he shook his head instantly left Wen Xiu Cheng speechless.

However, the words that followed from the other party caused Wen Xiu Cheng's anger to surge even higher.

"Currently, Du Xingchen is the most suitable Captain to lead us. He is more suitable and more responsible than you."

"Du Xingchen?" The moment the topic shifted to Du Xingchen, Wen Xiu Cheng's gaze was firmly locked onto Du Xingchen, "Heh, are you kidding me?"

"This guy, the weakest one in our team, is the most suitable to be Captain?"

Speaking of this, Wen Xiu Cheng let out a breath of frustration, staring into Du Xingchen's eyes, "Or are you saying that Liangcai Sword said those things because you secretly instigated him?"

"You want to be the Captain?"

Facing Wen Xiu Cheng's questions, Du Xingchen calmly lowered his gaze.

Originally, he hadn't planned to get involved like this.

But since Liangcai Sword had brought the matter into the open, there was no need for him to avoid it.

After all, even if this situation didn't happen now, it was bound to happen later!

"Captain, you really need to rest well in your current state," Du Xingchen's voice was calm, even carrying some concern.

This, however, completely enraged Wen Xiu Cheng, "Do you really think anyone will support you? Strength, connections, leadership, you have none of them! And you still think about becoming the Captain, it's simply wishful thinking!"

"I announce that you, like Moyun, are expelled from the team!"

Having said this, Wen Xiu Cheng looked at his other three teammates, "Does anyone have any objections?"

"I have an objection," Liangcai Sword stood out without hesitation.

"I also have an objection," Sun Yingying paused slightly before also stepping forward, "Captain, you need to calm down. Xingchen is not like Moyun, how can you expel him from the team?"

The voices of his two teammates caused Wen Xiu Cheng's face to twitch and contort.

And when Qing Youyu beside him also spoke, Wen Xiu Cheng was completely broken!

"Wen Xiu Cheng, your actions are too aggressive. Has the position of Captain made you like this? If so, you are indeed not suitable to be the Captain anymore."

Wen Xiu Cheng had originally thought that among his three teammates, besides Liangcai Sword, who had a good relationship with Du Xingchen, the other two would definitely support him.

And even if Sun Yingying didn't support him, then Qing Youyu, his woman, would certainly support him unconditionally!

However, the result was...

The three of them were actually all siding with Du Xingchen!

Quietly watching Wen Xiu Cheng and his teammates, Du Xingchen understood.

This had reached the plot point of the Captain change.

In the original work, it was precisely Wen Xiu Cheng's irritable temper during this period that caused his teammates to become deeply disappointed.

Moyun reasonably took over.

And now.

Moyun had been driven away, and he himself had acted as the most excellent Captain for the other teammates in the past few days.

With such groundwork laid, he had already replaced Moyun and become the person who would take over as Captain from Wen Xiu Cheng!

"I announce that from now on, Wen Xiu Cheng's Captain status is revoked, and I will serve as the team's Captain. Does anyone have any objections?" Du Xingchen slowly spoke.

His words were like the final decision on the matter.

Liangcai Sword and Sun Yingying both shook their heads without any objection.

Qing Youyu looked at Wen Xiu Cheng, a trace of struggle flashing in her eyes, "I also have no objection."

Ultimately, Wen Xiu Cheng's performance was too disappointing, coupled with how well Du Xingchen had done these past few days.

These were the main reasons that led to the change in Captain position, falling to Du Xingchen.

"Everyone, prepare yourselves. Once the light barrier disappears, we will immediately rendezvous with the Heaven's Chosen from the Linshan Country Royal Family, and then figure out how to escape later," Du Xingchen glanced at Wen Xiu Cheng, who looked as if his home had been raided, and didn't say anything more to provoke him.

Now that he was the Captain, he would have plenty of time later to slowly train him and make him useful.

As they waited, the surrounding air flow became increasingly frequent.

It was as if the wind and waves from outside had already blown in.

"Buzz~"

The moment the Divine Might retracted, the huge light barrier in front of Du Xingchen and the others shattered with a rumble!

"Hehehe! Kid! Just obediently accept death!"

Almost the moment the light barrier shattered, the Demon Hall's Heaven's Chosen, with sinister laughter, collectively leaped over the dense forest, charging towards Du Xingchen and the others like shadows!

These people.

Each one had extremely impressive aura fluctuations.

The weakest were at the peak of Four-Star Soul Card Master, while the mainstream powerhouses were six Five-Star Soul Card Masters and one Six-Star Soul Card Master!

When these people entered the area covered by the light barrier, they instantly locked onto Du Xingchen and the others, who were conspicuous on the vast grassland with scattered trees!

And before the Demon Hall people could even land steadily, two pitch-black cards suddenly appeared in front of them!

This caused their sinister laughter to come to an abrupt halt.

"It's card equipment, Ten-Thousand Year level card equipment, and two of them! Retreat quickly!"

Among the Demon Hall's Heaven's Chosen, someone immediately recognized what these things were and quickly shouted for retreat.

"Boom!"

One black card transformed into the phantom of a giant elephant, spanning over ten meters.

Amidst the roar, the giant elephant stomped through the void and charged towards the Demon Hall's Heaven's Chosen with a rumble!

The other black card, upon bursting and scattering, turned into a rain of swords that sealed the sky.

"Swish!"

As the air was torn apart, the sword rain, carrying the might of a Saint Master, directly attacked the area of the Demon Hall!

Two Ten-Thousand Year card equipment pieces were undoubtedly a heavy blow to the Demon Hall's Heaven's Chosen.

Caught off guard, the moment they collided head-on, they could only barely release one piece of card equipment.

A shield instantly formed!

And the moment the defensive shield formed, the two attacks arrived with a rumble!

"Boom!"

Amidst a wave of spatial tremors, the two attacks were ultimately blocked by the pitch-black shield.

And after blocking this attack, the shield also turned into a stream of light and was completely consumed!

They had blocked the attack.

But they couldn't feel happy at all.

Especially the Captain of the Demon Hall's Heaven's Chosen with smoky eye makeup, his face was even as black as the color around his eyes.

The card they had hastily released just now was a Thirty-Thousand Year Strange Beast card!

The Elder had given it to them to deal with Grand Sage Masters who might appear to snatch the God's inheritance!

After all, when leaving Jiaolong Valley, everyone would appear randomly in the Outer Domain and Desert.

In the Elder's opinion, if they carried the God's inheritance out, they were very likely to be targeted by Grand Sage Masters. Before the Grand Elder could arrive, they could rely on that card equipment to buy some time.

But now, that card equipment was directly consumed!

When they had fought the other two strong teams before, most of their card equipment had already been consumed, and now it was adding insult to injury.

"Attack! Kill them all, take the inheritance and Bloodline!" The Demon Hall's Heaven's Chosen Captain ordered through gritted teeth.

On Du Xingchen's side.

After using two Ten-Thousand Year cards to briefly block the Demon Hall, they also encountered attacks from the other side.

It was the people from Outer Sea Pavilion.

Their target was also very clear, it was this group of people within the light barrier!

"Stop! These people are protected by our Linshan Country Royal Family!" Suddenly, a loud voice came from the other side, accompanied by the appearance of figures!
