System: After the fortune telling, my cultivation level skyrocketed.

At the same time, countless guards dressed in similar red armor converged on the clan hall from all directions.

On the vast plaza, the great demons who had transformed into human form took on various shapes and sizes. Some were ugly and awe-inspiring; others were beautiful and had outstanding temperaments; still others exuded a chilling aura that sent shivers down one's spine.

But at this moment, they all stood quietly in the clan temple square, their eyes revealing anticipation, waiting for the appearance of the tribe's high-ranking officials.

On the other half of the plaza, the Crimson Armor Guards and Silver Armor Guards stood in neat rows. Their uniform attire and faces revealed them to be a purely human imperial guard force. The young and handsome leader, clad in black armor and exuding an extraordinary aura, was none other than the elite force of the Longxia clan—the Yinglong Guard.

"The patriarch is here!"

"We are here to see the clan leader!"

As expected, as news of Chen Xuan's imminent return to the tribe spread, Elder Long and other high-ranking decision-makers made preparations in a tense but orderly manner before leaving the clan hall together.

Since embarking on the path of immortality, with the continuous improvement of his Divine Demon Body Refinement realm, Elder Long's life force has undergone a complete transformation. He is no longer the old and decrepit man of the past, but has transformed into a middle-aged man with short, jet-black hair and a steady demeanor, exuding an aura of both majesty and approachability.

The five people surrounding Elder Long included four generals who had migrated with him during the Great Migration. They were all high-ranking members of the tribe's decision-making team, who had contributed greatly to the tribe's development.

The last one, the white-browed, white-haired old man in black robes, was Xuan Shuize. These people were the leaders of the entire tribe, bearing the heavy responsibility of the tribe's rise and fall.

Looking at the crowd gathered in front of the clan hall, Elder Long smiled with satisfaction. He looked up at the direction outside Zelinhai and said with emotion, "Three years have passed since we parted ways. Xiao Xuan has finally returned to our tribe."

"Yes, time flies. I never imagined that so much time would have passed in the blink of an eye. I wonder what level Xiao Xuan's strength has reached now." A kind-faced old man nodded in agreement, his eyes full of concern.

"Back when young friend Chen Xuan was in the Foundation Establishment Realm, he was able to kill a Xuan Serpent in the late stage of the Myriad Manifestations Realm, which already showed his astonishing strength. After that, he joined the number one immortal sect in Qingtian County. With the training he has undergone in the past three years, his strength is probably unfathomable and unimaginable." Xuan Shuize always held a deep sense of awe for Chen Xuan, and when he spoke of Chen Xuan's past, his tone was full of admiration.

The top decision-makers chatted and smiled at each other, creating a harmonious atmosphere. Those below stood quietly, awaiting Chen Xuan's arrival.

Soon, Elder Long waved his hand, his face beaming with joy, and announced loudly, "Form ranks! We will welcome Chen Xuan's return with the highest honors of the Longxia clan!"

Upon hearing this, excited roars erupted throughout the entire clan hall, their sound echoing through the sky.

Soon, eight aerial formations took off in unison, flying towards the outer edge of Zelin Sea. At the same time, countless people had already gathered in the streets, eagerly awaiting their arrival.

Compared to the eight formations of the Zelin Hailongxia clan, the Jiang clan of Jiangshan City had assembled six formations this time, and they were already waiting for Elder Long and the others. The Jiang clan was led by Jiang Ming and the old clan leader Jiang Tianxiao, among others. Their expressions were solemn, and their eyes revealed their respect and expectations for Chen Xuan.

As the fourteen cultivators gathered in the welcoming formation a thousand meters above the sea outside Zelin, everyone looked up at the distant area shrouded in clouds and mist, their eyes filled with longing, as if they wanted to pierce through the layers of clouds and mist to see the savior who had led Longxia and the Jiang clan to a new life—Chen Xuan.

Before half a cup of tea had been brewed, a deafening cry that seemed to tear through the sky came from the thick clouds. The outline of a huge golden eagle gradually became clear in the mist, appearing and disappearing, filled with an air of mystery.
