<h4>Chapter 850: Chapter 852: Complex Gazes</h4>
Long Er looked at Long Ang in confusion, "Group Leader, what drama are you talking about?"
Long Ang smiled and shook his head, showing no intention of continuing the topic.
"Why are you here?" Long Ang asked.
Long Er and Long Yi nced at each other, then both lowered their heads.
"Group Leader, we’vee to ask you to return."
Long Yi forced a difficult smile. Elder Su had appointed him as Group Leader right in front of Long Ang. Although he had no intention of taking the position, he still felt guilty facing Long Ang.
He awkwardlyughed, "Group Leader, Elder Su can’t decide your fate alone. We’re here to ask you toe back."
"That’s right, Group Leader, please return with us. I know Elder Su’s words are just out of anger. You’re our mostpetent Group Leader, how could he truly dismiss your position?"
Long Er also spoke up.
Long Ang nced again at the ce where Chu Ge and the others had vanished, then sighed, "Alright, let’s talk about thister."
Long Yi and Long Er exchanged looks. Long Yi wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Long Er.
"Long Yi, since the Group Leader doesn’t want to talk about it, let’s not press the issue for now."
Long Er said.
Long Yi sighed, "Alright."
Long Ang followed Long Yi and Long Er back to the vi, only to find many people waiting at the entrance.
These were members of the Dragon Group. Upon seeing Long Ang, they stepped forward, "Group Leader."
"Group Leader, you’re back."
"Group Leader, did you really go topete with the Ancient Martial Arts?"
"Group Leader, what was the oue?"
Everyone surrounded Long Ang, questioning him endlessly.
Faced with this sudden barrage of questions, Long Ang didn’t know how to respond.
Just as he was about to speak, a sarcastic voice emerged from the crowd.
"Wake up, everyone. Long Ang is no longer our Group Leader; our leader now is Long Yi."
With that, all eyes turned to Long Yi.
Long Yi appeared embarrassed, caught between emotions, his face flushed red.
"Long Ang, do you still think you’re imposing? Daring to challenge the Ancient Martial Artist alone, what was the result? A win or a loss?"
The one speaking was Long Jiu, known as Old Nine in the Dragon Group. He relishedpetition and never liked Long Ang’s self-proimed boss demeanor, nor his showy bravado.
Now that Long Ang had finally been dismissed, Long Jiu couldn’t be happier.
Although Long Yi was temporarily appointed as Group Leader, in Long Jiu’s eyes, Long Yi was too naive for the position. Elder Su’s arrangement was simply a ploy to antagonize Long Ang.
Long Ang coldly stared at him, unfazed by his taunts. He knew Long Jiu had always disliked him and would seize any chance to mock him.
Seeing Long Ang’s reluctance to engage, Long Jiu couldn’t help but sneer, "Seems like the result wasn’t satisfactory, otherwise why aren’t you speaking up? Did you embarrass our Dragon Group?"
"Long Jiu! What nonsense are you spewing?" Long Er couldn’t bear it anymore, stepping forward angrily, "Long Ang is still our Group Leader; don’t push your luck!"
Long Jiuughed, "Oh, loyal followers. I know you’re worried that if Long Ang remains Group Leader, you’ll be marginalized. But let me make it clear, he will not be Group Leader again!"
"Long Jiu! Shut up!" Long Er was utterly infuriated, ring at Long Jiu. If it weren’t against regtions prohibiting internal fights, punishable by disciplinary action, he would have taught Long Jiu a lesson long ago.
Yet Long Jiu maintained his arrogant stance, making him quite insufferable.
Long Jiu sneered, his gaze casuallynding on a figure approaching from afar. Only then did he shut his mouth.
Everyone noticed and lowered their heads.
Elder Su approached with a stern expression. As he passed Long Ang, he paused and coldly snorted, "What are you all doing here? No training today?"
The Dragon Group members kept their heads down, too afraid to answer.
"What are you waiting for? Get back to training!"
Elder Su barked impatiently.
The crowd hurriedly dispersed. Long Yi and Long Er kept looking back worriedly.
Elder Su gathered all the elders of the Dragon Group to vote on Long Ang’s fate as Group Leader.
"You two! What are you looking at? Hurry up and go train!" Elder Su shouted at Long Yi and Long Er who hesitated to leave.
Despite Elder Su’s reprimand, Long Yi and Long Er still paused frequently, casting concerned nces back at Long Ang.
Long Ang waved at them, "Go to the training ground."
Abiding by Long Ang’smand seemed ingrained in them. Long Yi and Long Er quickly turned and ran off.
Seeing this, Elder Su grew even more furious. These little rascals didn’t even care to listen to him now.
It seemed imperative to remove Long Ang as Group Leader; otherwise, the group would only follow his orders, ignoring the elders’ authority!
Though angered, Elder Su couldn’t directly vent at Long Ang now that Long Yi and Long Er had left.
Unable to unleash his rage, he shot Long Ang a resentful re and stormed off.

Long Jiu remained silent on the side, unnoticed by Elder Su until he turned and saw him smirking. Elder Su snorted, venting his frustration on Long Jiu, "Why are you standing here? Get to training!"
Faced with Elder Su’s reprimand, Long Jiu awkwardly smiled, "I’m going."
Long Jiu’spliance slightly eased Elder Su’s expression, prompting a faint grunt, "That’s more like it."
After Long Jiu left, Elder Su nced disdainfully at Long Ang, "Alright,e in. All the elders are waiting inside."
Long Ang anticipated this scenario. Proud andposed, he followed Elder Su inside without bowing before authority.
The vi had been a gift from the Dragon Group when he became Group Leader.
Yet now, it was the setting for a public inquisition. Long Ang nced at the vi, his lookplex, unclear what he was contemting.
