Chapter 599 Great Ancestor of the Dragon Clan [Third Release]
The Sea Realm.
Chu Yuan was relentless in his journey.
With the reinforcement of his Invincible State, his eyes were like radar.
With one sweep of his vision, nothing could escape.
As soon as something appeared, he would instantly capture it.
Clearly, Chu Yuan was searching for something.
And what he was looking for,
besides the monsters that would fly out from the sea floor, what else could there be?
After searching for a while, Chu Yuan quickly found those beings that excited him more with each kill—the Demon Race.
He was extremely thrilled after slaughtering those that flew out from the sea floor.
The most lethal aspect was that this excitement was addictive.
Chu Yuan was truly addicted.
At first, he was fine, able to instantly catch those Demon Race emerging from the sea floor.
But later on, as he continued his slaughter, not many of the Demon Race dared to fly out from the sea.
Even if they did emerge, they did so sneakily.
This brought about the current scene.
Chu Yuan was searching all over, seizing the Demon Race and crushing them directly under the Golden Halo.
Not for anything else, but for that moment of joy.
"My darlings, where are you? Come out quickly."
Chu Yuan muttered to himself, his eyes shining brightly.
That was the gleam of hunting prey.
Chu Yuan flew faster and faster as he continued.
After flying for who knows how long,
a silhouette gradually appeared in front of him.
Chu Yuan thought he had encountered "prey" and was about to throw a Golden Halo at it.
But before he could release the Halo, he paused the next second.
In his field of vision,
what lay ahead was not any prey, but clearly, it was a continent.
Tianjian Continent!
He had returned here?
Upon realizing he had returned to Tianjian Continent, Chu Yuan instantly sobered up.
All thoughts of "hunting" were forgotten.
He was back.
Chu Yuan shook his head.
He almost forgot, he still had important matters to attend to.
He couldn't keep wandering in the Sea Realm forever.
Now that he was back, he might as well return.
He would come back here to play when he had the time.
The Sea Realm was still very fun.
Next time he would come back.
Chu Yuan, recalling the happiness of the past few days, couldn't help but reveal a smile.
He didn't think too long about it.
His figure moved, and he swiftly streaked towards the distant Tianjian Continent.
In just a moment, he had returned to Tianjian Continent.
Chu Yuan had intended to go straight back to the Dragon Clan.
But before he could take any action,
a figure flew by in the distance.
Chu Yuan looked up,
and recognized the comer.
Wasn't it the Demon Master?
The Demon Master flew over and, seeing Chu Yuan, was also overjoyed, his gloomy face spread with jubilation.
"Primordial Daoist Fellow! You're still alive?!"
As soon as the Demon Master arrived, he blurted out such a sentence.
On the side, Chu Yuan, upon hearing this, felt his originally pleasant mood instantly explode.
This guy...
Could he not speak?
Asking him if he's still alive upon meeting?
Was he so eager for him to have died?
"Demon Master, the way you say it, it's not too kind... wait a second, do you mean that many people have perished?"
Chu Yuan suddenly caught on.
Could it be that all the Old Ancestors who had set out together had fallen?
That was why this Demon Master was so shocked to see him.
"Indeed, Primordial Daoist Fellow, you might not know, nearly all the elder ancestors who went out have perished, and you are the first one to return. Primordial Daoist Fellow, you must have had a hard time, surviving such a perilous place..."
The Demon Master was very emotional.
"No trouble, no trouble."
Chu Yuan gave an awkward smile.
What hardship could he speak of? He had no idea what had happened and, on the contrary, had been enjoying himself in the sea domain.
"Primordial Daoist Fellow, you..."
Following that, the Demon Master showed great concern for Chu Yuan, greeting him warmly.
The more he listened, the more embarrassed Chu Yuan became.
He had done absolutely nothing at all.
After exchanging courtesies with the Demon Master.
Chu Yuan finally flew back in the direction of the Dragon Clan.
At the original spot, the Demon Master stood there.
He looked up at the silhouette of Chu Yuan as he departed.
Once again, a gleam flickered in his eyes.
He was cooking up another little plan.
Chu Yuan had returned.
This signified that he could continue to rely on the Dragon Clan to suppress the other tribes of the Demon Race.
Moreover, the current situation was even more favorable to him.
The Old Ancestors of the various tribes of the Demon Race had almost all perished in the sea domain.
Only Chu Yuan had returned.
This meant that in terms of top-level combat power, the Dragon Clan would significantly surpass the other tribes.
Leveraging this fact, the Dragon Clan could completely dominate the other tribes.
"Ji Meng, oh Ji Meng, even if you've guessed my intentions, what use is it?"
As the Demon Master thought of these things, he couldn't help but break into laughter.
He was becoming more and more pleased with Chu Yuan.
A decision formed secretly in his heart.
As long as Chu Yuan could lead the Dragon Clan to subdue the other tribes of the Demon Race for him.
He would definitely give Chu Yuan a high position!
At the very least, he would have to be the Dragon Clan's second-in-command.
All that Ji Meng's stuff, roll aside.
These were the fantasies of the Demon Master.
...
Meanwhile.
Chu Yuan had also returned to the Dragon Clan.
It's worth mentioning that.
When he arrived at the Dragon Clan.
All the clan members almost cried.
They kowtowed to Chu Yuan, one after another, overwhelmed with excitement.
This left Chu Yuan completely stunned.
After much inquiry, he finally understood the reason.
It turned out that all twelve of the Dragon Clan's Old Ancestors had perished.
The twelve Jade Tokens that recorded life and left behind by the Old Ancestors in the Dragon Clan had all shattered.
This signified the demise of all twelve Old Ancestors.
Now, without any Old Ancestors in place, the Dragon Clan would truly crumble, but thankfully, Chu Yuan had returned.
With the thirteenth Old Ancestor at its helm, the Dragon Clan would definitely not fall apart.
They might even have a chance at rising again.
In such a situation, how could the many members of the Dragon Clan not be thrilled by Chu Yuan's return?
In these circumstances.
Chu Yuan was 'promoted' on the spot.
Chu Yuan became the Great Ancestor of the Dragon Clan.
On the surface, it was the Dragon Clan Chief who was the head of the Dragon Clan.
In reality, Chu Yuan was the true leader, the one who truly ruled over the entire Dragon Clan.
Also, Chu Yuan became the Dragon Clan's strongest support, the kind not to be utilized except in times of crisis.
When Chu Yuan learned that he had become the Great Ancestor, he was dumbfounded for a long while.
He really just came to fish, to scoop up some treasures.
How had he become the Great Ancestor of the Dragon Clan just by fishing around?
If he kept fishing for a bit longer, was he going to start ruling over the Demon Race too?
This thought made Chu Yuan laugh at himself.
For the first time, he felt that getting promoted was so easy.
One could even fish out the title of Great Ancestor.
Chu Yuan actually wanted to refuse, as his main task was to seek a worthy disciple to teach.
That was his main concern.
Before Chu Yuan could refuse.
The Dragon Clan Chief mentioned the control over all the Dragon Clan's foundational resources.
This firmly secured Chu Yuan's position as the Great Ancestor.
He really wanted to leave, to walk away.
But...
But the Dragon Clan kept offering more and more...
