Panlong: Transcending from the Dominator of the Water System

Chapter 40 Gasresen's Fear, The Storm in the Divine Dimension
News of the Water God Realm spread quickly, and since some of the divine avatars of the Four Divine Beasts Clan were still in the Heavenly Sacrifice Mountains, they naturally received the news immediately.

"What did you say? Say it again?"

In the Azure Dragon Hall, Gasleysen suddenly stood up, his eyes fixed on Hawke, as if he wanted to glare Hawke away.

"Chieftain, Barbari led the entire clan to attack our clan's stronghold on the Azure Dragon Continent. The entire clan was wiped out. He also said that the day of our Four Divine Beasts clan's annihilation is not far off..."

Hawke knelt down tremblingly, his heart filled with despair and fear.

"boom!"

Gasleysen collapsed to the ground, his expression filled with terror. As the only member of the family who knew that Redding and his companions had gone to fight the Water Lord, he knew exactly what that meant.

"You go out first!"

After a long silence, Gasley finally managed to squeeze out a few words through gritted teeth, trying his best not to lose his composure.

"Clan leader, what about the ancestors...?"

Hawke hesitated for a moment before cautiously asking the question.

"go out!"

Gasleysen's voice suddenly grew louder, directly interrupting Hawke, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes.

"Yes!"

Hawke quickly lowered his head and left the hall, but in his heart, he already knew the answer.

After Hawke left, Gasresen sat alone for a long time, took out a piece of parchment from his spatial ring, and then tremblingly lit it with his divine power.

"Shh!"

The parchment burst into flames instantly, and a strange energy fluctuation flashed by. However, the Azure Dragon God, who should have appeared, did not materialize, as if the call had been merely an illusion.

"Father!"

Gasleysen fell to his knees with a thud, tears streaming down his face. He couldn't believe that his father, Redding, who had just patted him on the shoulder and told him about becoming the ruler of the water element and fighting alongside him, had fallen so suddenly.

"Ah!!! The Water Element Ruler!"

Gasleysen's eyes were bloodshot as he roared to the sky, as if he wanted to unleash his endless rage.

However, the next moment, Gasleysen slumped to the ground, looking at the sky with a helpless expression.

What good is anger? So what if he knows who the murderer is? The other party is the water element ruler who killed four ancestors. What can a high-ranking god like him do?
"Brother, brother!"

Before Gasleysen could react, a clear, cold female voice rang out, and a masked woman with blue hair rushed in.

"Big brother, something's happened! That bastard Barbari actually dared to attack my Four Divine Beasts family! And what about the Water God Realm... Big brother?"

Gaia was halfway through her sentence when she suddenly froze, because what came into view was Gasleysen sitting dejectedly on the ground, as if he had lost all hope.

This left Gaia somewhat bewildered. She and Gasleysen had been together for countless years since birth, and she had never seen her older brother like this before, not even when the family suffered heavy losses due to being bullied by Ninisha.

"Brother, what's wrong? What happened?"

Gaia instantly forgot about the water-based divine plane and immediately stepped forward to help Gaisleysen.

"Sister, something may have happened to Father and the others."

Gasleysen opened his mouth slightly and spoke in a hoarse voice. Gaia could clearly feel his body trembling slightly.

"Big brother, what did you say?"

Gaia was slightly taken aback, and for a moment she didn't understand what it meant that her father and the others had an accident.

“A year ago, my father and the others told me they were going to hunt down the Water Elemental Ruler, but they haven’t returned. Then, the Barbari of the Water Elemental God Plane attacked the Four Divine Beast Families. Just now, I used the parchment to call out to my father, but there was no response.” *Snap!*

Gaia couldn't help but take two steps back, leaning against the pillar with her mouth slightly open as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, she couldn't say anything.

"Big brother, big brother, something's happened! Big brother? Gaia? What's wrong with you?"

As an anxious voice rang out, three figures entered the Azure Dragon Hall side by side, where they saw the desperate expressions on the faces of Gaisleysen and Gaia.

"Hey, what happened?"

Gus was the first to come to his senses and asked anxiously.

Gasleysen gave a blank explanation of what had happened.

"No, this can't be! How could this be? I... I'll contact my father!"

Gus's eyes instantly turned blood red. He took out a piece of parchment and lit it in the void. The energy of heaven and earth reappeared. However, the White Tiger God did not descend.

"How could this happen?"

Gus took several steps back, then looked at Morey and Mori with a last glimmer of hope.

Seeing this, Morey quickly took out a parchment and lit it, but again, the Xuanwu God did not appear.

Chief Tia of the Vermilion Bird Clan did not return from the Vermilion Bird Continent, but there was no need for her to come again. The people present had already realized what had happened.

"Father!"

Elder Moli of Xuanwu collapsed to the ground, his eyes lifeless.

We can't afford to give up here!

Gasleysen suddenly stood up and wiped away the tears in his eyes.

Originally immersed in grief and pain, Gaisleysen suddenly realized upon seeing his younger siblings that with their father gone, he, as the eldest brother, was now the true ruler of the Four Divine Beasts Clan. He could no longer grieve with his younger siblings; instead, he had to shoulder the responsibilities of the clan leader.

"Immediately notify the clansmen and issue the order of the four clan leaders, instructing all clansmen in all planes to abandon everything and return to the Heavenly Sacrifice Mountain Range. If necessary, sacrifice a portion of the clansmen as bait for cover."

Gasleysen spoke coldly, knowing that at this moment, the Four Divine Beasts Clan might face annihilation.

The tragedy on the water-based divine plane was mostly due to surprise attacks. With prior preparation, most people could still be evacuated.

"Brother, what happens after we retreat?"

The White Tiger Clan Chief Gess was completely disoriented, and upon hearing Gaisleysen's words, he subconsciously asked a question.

"Let's come back first. It's unlikely that all the enemies would be willing to fight to the death to reach the Tianji Mountains."

Gasleysen opened his mouth, but in the end he still spoke up to comfort Gus.

Although he himself was not sure, over the years, the Four Divine Beasts Clan had offended quite a few people. Although some of them might not be so relentless as to pursue them all the way to the Heavenly Sacrifice Mountain Range, even if not all of them, could they withstand it? Gasleysen did not know.

"No matter what, the family line cannot end in my hands!"

A resolute glint flashed in Gasleysen's eyes, and he was the first to walk out of the Azure Dragon Hall.

He had to deliver the order. The order of the four clan leaders of the Four Divine Beasts Clan was issued jointly by the four clan leaders and was second only to the ancestor's order. He now needed to inform everyone through clan members with clones and arrange for clan elders to provide support and prepare for battle.

At this moment, the Four Divine Beasts Clan lost its backer, and as the clan leaders, they had to shoulder the final responsibility.

As Gaisleysen left, Gaia and the others gradually came to their senses and realized that now was not the time to grieve. They suppressed their grief and began to issue commands.

At this very moment, a storm centered around the four divine beast families began to rapidly erupt across the divine plane.
