Possessed by my father, I was reborn and became the supreme ruler.

The dragon's eyes flashed with ferocity, and it even spoke in a human voice: "The Xuanhuo Decree has been issued, yet someone dares to defy it!" With a breath, countless streams of fire spewed from its mouth. "Exterminate the traitor!!!" Then it let out a roar that shook the heavens and earth, its gaze fixed on the two people before it.

"It's you?" Xuanhuo Zhenlong looked at Si Tianxiang in front of him, his eyes blazing with fire that almost set Si Tianxiang's hair and beard on fire. He quickly waved his hand and raised the Xuanhuo Token for Zhenlong to see.

"It wasn't me, it was him, it was this person!" He pointed at Ye Yunjian.

Flames burned fiercely on the true dragon's body, and the mysterious fire crackled, distorting the entire surrounding space and time. The earth trembled slightly. Such powerful strength had reached the peak of the Profound Emperor realm, infinitely close to the Profound Emperor level.

Ye Yunjian's current cultivation level is far from sufficient, and he can only rely on the Limitless Profound Fire Wheel to barely support himself. However, he feels his skin is being scorched and he can hardly breathe.

The tentacles of the Xuanhuo True Dragon trembled slightly, and it pointed its head, which was almost the size of a small building, at Ye Yunjian. The flames in its mouth were about to burst out. As long as it breathed fire at Ye Yunjian, Ye Yunjian would die without a burial place.

"So it's you, scoundrel, who dares to defy the Xuanhuo Token?" The flames on the true dragon's body instantly rose three feet high, showing its extreme dissatisfaction with Ye Yunjian. "Traitor! What else do you have to say?"

Ye Yunjian felt as if he were being roasted in the sun, with smoke slowly rising from his body. He never imagined that he would not die at Situ Jiuxiao's hands, but would perish in the raging fire of the true dragon today.

"I, I..." Ye Yunjian wanted to say something, but the moisture in his body evaporated rapidly, and he couldn't speak.

"You, you traitorous disciple!!! Die!!!" The Xuanhuo True Dragon was about to breathe fire when it suddenly realized something was wrong. "You, how come you're only at the Xuandan Realm? That's too low a level. It lowers the standard of my execution of a traitorous disciple! Can the Xuanhuo Token now even transmit commands to low-level disciples like those at the Xuandan Realm?"

As it spoke, it sniffed Ye Yunjian again with a puzzled look: "Why do I feel that this guy has a familiar aura on him? Hmm, it's like, like my ancestor? Strange."

Ye Yunjian was almost unable to bear it any longer when Si Tianxiang crawled over: "True Dragon, Lord True Dragon!"

"Hmm?" The true dragon opened its eyes and sized up Si Tianxiang. "You're the one who summoned me with the Xuanhuo Token? Who are you?"

"Si Tianxiang, a disciple of the Xuanhuo Sect, greets Lord Zhenlong. Please tell me that although this rebellious disciple is audacious and reckless, he is not irredeemably wicked. Please, please spare his life." Si Tianxiang had only intended to punish Ye Yunjian, so he surprisingly began to plead for him.

"Hmm, I feel like you're a low-level disciple too, only at the Profound Sword Realm. How come the disciples holding the Profound Fire Token are only at the Profound Sword Realm now? Before, they were all at the Profound Emperor or Profound King level. How come the Profound Fire Sect has dwindled to this extent in the past few hundred years?" As the Profound Fire True Dragon spoke, he even used his true energy.

"No, this disciple was only temporarily dispatched by the Sect Master, and is not someone who acts solely on behalf of the Xuanhuo Token." Si Tianxiang was always proud and arrogant. Seeing that the Xuanhuo True Dragon seemed to look down on him, he did not dare to openly contradict him and could only offer an explanation.

"What? A mere low-level disciple, not even one acting solely on behalf of the Profound Fire Token, dares to summon me at will? And to come and go as you please? What do you take me for?"

Xuanhuo True Dragon seemed truly angry: "Today, I will teach you a lesson in front of all the disciples of Xuanhuo Sect, so that you will know how to treat me, the True Dragon God, in the Xuanhuo Sect!"

As it spoke, it suddenly raised its head, inhaling boundless spiritual energy in one gulp. Then it shouted towards the direction of Xuanhuo Peak: "Disciples of Xuanhuo Sect, I am the guardian deity of the sect, the Xuanhuo True Dragon of the Xuanhuo Token! Today, your disciple Ye Yunjian has disobeyed the Xuanhuo Token and will be executed by me! Today, I will show you the power of this deity! Let's see who else dares to disobey the Xuanhuo Token in the future!"

As soon as they finished speaking, three points of mystic fire suddenly rose from the distant Xuanhuo Peak, and the three of them shouted in unison, "True Dragon, wait! Spare my junior brother Ye Yunjian's life!"

The three were Ye Yunjian's senior sister Xiao Qingshuang, senior brother Song Lan, and Shen Jinyan. Below them, a young woman's voice came softly: "Please don't hurt my senior brother Ye." It was Bai Yueling.

"I'll do it anyway! Do you dare defy the will of the Dragon God?" Almost simultaneously, the true dragon roared and breathed fire at Ye Yunjian.

The raging flames instantly enveloped Ye Yunjian's entire body. Although the Limitless Profound Fire Wheel tried to resist, it was no match for it. Ye Yunjian felt his entire body being melted.

But at this critical moment, Situ Jiuxiao's voice came from afar: "Lord Zhenlong, please calm down. Situ Jiuxiao, the thirty-seventh sect master of Xuanhuo Sect, begs Lord Zhenlong to spare the life of this traitorous disciple Ye Yunjian!"

Situ Jiuxiao clearly knew that the True Dragon General would attack Ye Yunjian when Si Tianxiang made his move, but he still delayed until the very end to plead for Ye Yunjian's life. He put on a show, but in reality, he deliberately waited until Ye Yunjian was about to die before speaking up.

"Too late! You are also the sect master of the Xuanhuo Sect, how can you be so unreasonable? Today I will teach you a lesson!" Xuanhuo Zhenlong then turned his gaze to Ye Yunjian.

But in that instant, its body suddenly stiffened and its gaze became blank. It turned out that Ye Yunjian was standing there unharmed, watching it from within the flames.

"You dare to play tricks?" It took the Xuanhuo True Dragon a long time to come to its senses. Just as it was about to continue breathing fire, it saw a jade tablet rise in front of Ye Yunjian.

"The Mystic Fire Jade Key?" The Mystic Fire True Dragon's breathing quickened, as if it had seen something extraordinary. "Is it... is it His Majesty the Ancestral Dragon's sacred artifact? Could it be... could it be..."

Just then, it suddenly felt its dragon soul being drawn by a strange force, and then a majestic dragon voice rang in its ears.

"My dear grandson, you're so old now, yet you're still so unruly!"

Then, it seemed as if a beam of light shone into his eyes, and before him appeared an old man wearing a crimson dragon robe with dragon horns and whiskers, who was smiling at him.

"Ancestor!!!" The dragon's eyes welled up with tears, and he immediately prostrated himself on the ground, kneeling down. "Ancestor, your grandson kowtows to you!!!"

But this scene immediately terrified everyone around, including those who were seen by it through its projection from Xuanhuo Peak.

All everyone saw was that the dignified True Dragon, the guardian of the Xuanhuo Sect, actually knelt down and called Ye Yunjian his ancestor and his grandson after only one glance at him after seeing Ye Yunjian emerge unharmed from the Xuanhuo. This scene was truly shocking.
