Chapter 248: Prison Dragon Faces Heaven!

Li Tianxuan stood frozen in place.

Beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down instantly.

Just now, an Immortal Sword had grazed past his neck.

He could even feel the Immortal Sword's sharp Immortal Might.

"This life... I still haven't been grazed by an Immortal Sword yet."

Li Tianxuan smiled self-deprecatingly, then composed his expression and bowed deeply toward Lu Qingyang.

"Senior Lu's life-saving grace, this humble one will remember it in my heart."

"If there is ever a need in the future, this humble one will absolutely brave fire and water."

Li Tianxuan's voice was resolute, his tone firm and powerful.

Hearing this, the corner of Lu Qingyang's mouth lifted slightly, and he waved his hand without saying much.

He merely manipulated the Immortal Sword once more to rescue all the remaining Supremes.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

"Zhang zhang zhang!"

"Crack! Crack!"

The Immortal Sword carved streaks of soaring radiance through the air.

In an instant, it shattered the collars around the necks of the remaining Great Vehicle Supremes.

As all the Supremes regained their freedom, every one of them faced Lu Qingyang, expressions respectful.

They bowed deeply and shouted in unison.

"Many thanks to Senior Lu for the life-saving grace!"

"......"

Facing everyone's gratitude, Lu Qingyang did not evade.

He stood with his hands behind his back, proudly standing in the high sky, looking down upon the crowd, his gaze calm.

"Everyone, there is no need for such courtesy."

"You are all the pillars of the Human Race of the Prison Dragon Realm. How could this one not save you?"

"Now, though the ringleader of the Demon Race has been eliminated, the shattered mountains and rivers still await restoration!"

"This one, and this one's subordinate sect, the Chaotian Sect, as the foremost of the Human Race, how could we not lend our strength?"

Lu Qingyang's tone was serious and earnest.

A look of righteous dignity.

But certain words in his speech made quite a few Supremes' eyelids twitch.

Toward this, Lu Qingyang turned a blind eye.

He had not saved these people for nothing.

From today onward, whether it was him or the Chaotian Sect, they had reason to look down upon the Prison Dragon Realm.

Toward such a vast Middle Thousand World, he naturally had no desire to give it up.

So, after saving these people, he had to give everyone a reminder.

Of who now held the final say in the Prison Dragon Realm.

And Li Tianxuan naturally caught the implication in Lu Qingyang's words.

But he did not feel there was anything improper about it.

Since ancient times, whoever had the biggest fist was the boss.

In the past, the Sect Management Council had been the sole power because the Demon Race watched covetously.

And the Human Race had no great power to suppress the world.

If they could not unite, the Demon Race would surely make their move.

But now the Demon Race was weak.

Lu Qingyang suppressed an entire realm, and the Human Race would rise before long.

He had no reason not to support Lu Qingyang.

At this thought, Li Tianxuan cleared his throat and cupped his hands toward Lu Qingyang.

"What Senior Lu says is correct."

"Now our Human Race has a hundred things awaiting revival. Having Senior Lu and the Chaotian Sect reclaim our mountains and rivers for us is a blessing for our Human Race."

Hearing Li Tianxuan's words.

The many Supremes were somewhat surprised, but they understood in an instant.

Some revealed agreement, but others wore dark expressions.

Lu Qingyang did not care about these minor details.

In any case, he was merely informing these Supremes.

If these people were sensible, bowing their heads now could still earn them a measure of his courtesy.

Even if they were unwilling to join, he would certainly not force them.

But if in the future he began fully developing the Prison Dragon Realm, then aside from his own sect, everyone else had best not obstruct him.

Therefore, Lu Qingyang was not overly polite.

"Very well, Council Lord Li need not be so distant, nor call me Senior."

"My surname is Lu, and I am the Sect Master of the Chaotian Sect. Just call me Sect Master Lu."

"Now that my domain has a hundred things awaiting revival, would Council Lord Li be willing to join me in revitalizing the Prison Dragon?"

Lu Qingyang's voice was neither servile nor overbearing, and within that composure was a thread of confidence.

He believed Li Tianxuan was a smart man and would not refuse.

Sure enough, the moment Lu Qingyang spoke these words, Li Tianxuan's emotions did not waver much.

What he sought was merely the development of the Human Race. Joining the Chaotian Sect could let the Human Race develop even better, so why would he not?

"This humble one is willing."

Li Tianxuan cupped his hands and responded solemnly.

Lu Qingyang nodded, then said to the many Supremes, "If any of you are willing, you may join Council Lord Li in taking the title of Grand Elder of my Chaotian Sect."

"If you are unwilling, then disperse."

"When my Chaotian Sect's mountain gate is newly established, I will host a banquet for all of you to come and observe the ceremony."

Hearing Lu Qingyang's words, the many Supremes wore varying expressions.

But soon they all bowed and took their leave.

After all, such a major matter, even if it was just hanging a plaque, was no simple thing.

Lu Qingyang did not stop them either.

He watched the departing Supremes, and a trace of satisfaction surfaced on his face.

Because not everyone had left.

There were still ten smart people standing in place.

Among them was even the former garrison Supreme of the Vast Sea City in Qingnan Shengzhou, the Vast Sea Supreme.

"Greetings, Sect Master! I am willing to join the Chaotian Sect and lend my strength to the sect!"

The Vast Sea Supreme was the first to speak.

The remaining Supremes also cupped their fists in unison.

"Greetings, Sect Master!"

"We too are willing to lend our strength to the sect!"

"......"

Lu Qingyang nodded in satisfaction.

"This one is gratified that you all could make the correct choice. It was not in vain that this one saved your lives."

"Very good. This one announces that from today onward, the Chaotian Sect's Grand Elder Court shall have eleven newly promoted Grand Elders."

"Together with the original Grand Elders of the Chaotian Sect, they shall be collectively known as the Thirteen Grand Elders!"

Lu Qingyang's voice rolled forth, passing through the sky canopy to reach the ears of the hundred thousand Chaotian disciples.

In that instant, the disciples responded in unison.

"Respectfully obeying the Sect Master's Council Decree!"

"Greetings, Grand Elders!"

"......"

......

The hundred thousand Chaotian disciples shouted in unison, waves of sound rolling forth, rushing straight into the clouds.

The sound shook the Nine Heavens.

Unending.

And Li Tianxuan seized the moment to ask, "Sect Master, where shall our sect's mountain gate be established?"

Hearing this, Lu Qingyang smiled faintly, and casually pointed toward the distant void to the north.

"My Chaotian Sect's mountain gate shall be established at the Northern Region Great Wall!"

"The entire sect, hear the order: the sect sets out!"

"Target, the Northern Region Great Wall!"

"Disciples obey!"

......

The hundred thousand Chaotian disciples all acknowledged the order.

The Thirteen Grand Elders also cupped their fists and assented.

And when the newly promoted Grand Elders saw the Chaotian Palace revealed behind the clouds, each of them was greatly astonished.

Clearly, they had never seen such an enormous Dharma Artifact!

It was like a great sun spanning across the sky canopy!

As for the True Dragon Ao Ye, the mount Lu Qingyang had newly subdued.

At this moment, under Lu Qingyang's signal, he also released his true body, coiling beneath the Chaotian Palace.

To this end, the True Dragon opened the path, the fleet swept across, and the great sun hung in the sky.

The Thirteen Grand Elders led the way at the front, the hundred thousand disciples followed behind.

Imposing and magnificent, vast and boundless!

The opening chapter of the later Chaotian Historical Records was precisely this scene.

And this day was also called by later generations, Chaotian Over the Prison Dragon!
