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

Ye Yunjian found the way Xuanhuo Zhenlong addressed him now rather comical, but he didn't want to escalate the conflict, so he simply nodded and said, "Since the sect leader has spoken, he must have already made a decision about today's matter. Let's proceed according to the sect leader's opinion." Xuanhuo Zhenlong nodded and said, "In that case, I will let him go this time. However, I am very happy to be able to see the ancestor and the ancestral master this time!"

At this point, Xuanhuo Zhenlong suddenly said to Situ Jiuxiao, "Sect Master Situ, I just heard my ancestral dragon say that the Xuanmen mortal realm is about to face a great calamity. I have a new mission and need to return to my temple with the Xuanjian Emperor to take my place. You can choose someone else to protect the Xuanhuo Token."

After saying that, it raised its head and let out a long roar, suddenly soaring ten thousand feet into the air, transforming into a beam of light, and returning directly to Xuanhuo Peak.

Situ Jiuxiao originally thought that if the Xuanhuo True Dragon returned to the Xuanhuo Token, he could save face and then find a way to deal with the Xuanhuo True Dragon later.

However, this Xuanhuo True Dragon did not play by the rules and actually returned to Xuanhuo Peak alone, instead of the dragon itself.

His expression shifted between anger and uncertainty for a moment. He still didn't understand what the Ancestral Dragon, mentioned by the True Dragon of Xuanhuo, meant, because Elder Long had used a secret technique of the Dragon Clan. Although he had wanted to ask the True Dragon about it, seeing the True Dragon's furious expression, he couldn't just reveal the truth all at once. He could only swallow his anger and suffer in silence for now.

He looked at Si Tianxiang on the ground again. Si Tianxiang had slowly woken up and his body was gradually returning to normal. However, his clothes were still burned and tattered, making him look like a beggar.

"Sect Master, have I come back to life?" Si Tianxiang looked at his body and was overjoyed to find that he had recovered completely.

"Si Tianxiang! Look what you've done!" Although Situ Jiuxiao was furious, he couldn't bear to blame his own son too much. Looking at Ye Yunjian, he was even more furious.

"Jian'er, how come you keep getting into trouble lately? Last time it was the inner sect elder, then it was the soul of the World-Destroying Spirit King. This time, when we return to the Xuanhuo Sect, I'm sending you to reflect on your mistakes in seclusion!"

As he spoke, he helped Si Tianxiang up from the ground, and with a flick of his left hand, a dazzling black sword appeared in his palm.

Just then, Xiao Qingshuang, Song Lan, Shen Jinyan, and Bai Yueling arrived by flying on their swords. They were all shocked to see Situ Jiuxiao supporting Si Tianxiang and reprimanding Ye Yunjian.

Xiao Qingshuang said, "Master, today's events were clearly caused by Junior Brother Si Tianxiang, so why are you blaming Junior Brother Ye?"

Song Lan also said, "Master, we all saw it with the Heaven and Earth Eye at Xuanhuo Peak. It was Si Tianxiang who falsely conveyed your intention to suppress Junior Brother Ye, but he was unexpectedly attacked by the Xuanhuo True Dragon. The fault does not lie with Junior Brother Ye."

Shen Jinyan cupped his hands and said, "Master, no matter what, Junior Brother Ye is facing a life-or-death situation this time. He has advanced from the Profound Vein Realm to the Profound Core Realm, and his vital energy is damaged. He needs to recuperate carefully. Please think it over, Master."

Bai Yueling also bowed down: "Master is biased. Senior Brother Ye is clearly your personal disciple, but you favor the Grand Elder's disciple. This is not fair, not fair."

Seeing that his four disciples were all pleading for Ye Yunjian, and looking at Ye Yunjian himself, Situ Jiuxiao felt somewhat displeased: "I will definitely investigate today's matter thoroughly. You take Jian'er back first, and I will investigate it later."

After saying that, he raised his left hand, and the Xuan Sword transformed into a sword boat in mid-air. He gently placed Si Tianxiang into the boat and stepped into it himself. With a flash of light, the sword boat flew towards Xuanhuo Peak like a bolt of lightning in mid-air.

Xiao Qingshuang looked at Ye Yunjian and asked with some concern, "Junior Brother Ye, the Xuanhuo True Dragon just breathed fire at you, are you alright?"

Ye Yunjian shook his head and said, "Thank you for your concern, Senior Sister. It's nothing, I'm perfectly fine." He then stretched his body.

Shen Jinyan and Song Lan then stepped forward to check Ye Yunjian's body and found that there was nothing seriously wrong. They nodded and said, "Junior Brother Ye, you scared us just now. Luckily you're alright. Si Tianxiang was burned half to death by the True Dragon just now."

Ye Yunjian nodded, and Bai Yueling stepped forward and said, "Senior Brother Ye, you're alright. We saw you kill the Xuan Beast using the move that Senior Sister Xiao taught you on the back mountain of Xuanhuo Peak. We were worried that something had happened to you. It scared me to death."

Ye Yunjian then understood why they had arrived so quickly. He had been chased by a sudden mystical beast in the back mountain, but fortunately, he had saved his life using the Storm Technique taught by his senior sister.

Having been ambushed by the masked man before, but having been repelled by his own Wind and Wave Technique, Ye Yunjian was deeply moved. He said to Xiao Qingshuang, "Senior Sister, I owe my survival these past few times to the Wind and Wave Technique you taught me."

Xiao Qingshuang waved her hand, looked at the junior brothers and sisters around her, then looked at Xuanhuo Peak, and said sadly, "Everyone has seen what happened today. Compared with what happened a few days ago, Master's heart is somewhat biased."

Everyone fell silent. Although they had vaguely sensed it before, hearing it from Xiao Qingshuang's mouth still made it incredibly heavy.

Xiao Qingshuang said, "There are too many eyes and gossips here now. I used to think that some of the things Junior Brother Ye told me were just his childish temper, or that if Master was only targeting me or one of you, I would just be trying to persuade Master."

At this point, Bai Yueling said, "Senior sister, although Master has been very kind to us, if Master is really biased or deliberately has a problem with the five of us, we can simply leave Xuanhuo Peak."

Ye Yunjian then said, "Last time, Wei Wuji was clearly the one who harmed Junior Sister and Third Senior Brother. After we exposed him, he even tried to plot against us. Didn't we work together to send him to the Netherworld? There's nothing to be afraid of."

Xiao Qingshuang glanced at Ye Yunjian and suddenly said, "Junior Brother Ye, there's something I found strange just now. May I ask you about it?"

Ye Yunjian said, "Senior Sister, please tell me, is it because of the Xuanhuo True Dragon?"

Xiao Qingshuang nodded and said, "That's right. The Xuanhuo True Dragon originally intended to harm you, but then it changed its nature and started calling you 'ancestor,' and even addressed you as 'ancestor master.' I wonder why?"

At this point, she couldn't help but smile. Even Song Lan, Shen Jinyan, and Bai Yueling were amused. The scene just now was both bizarre and funny.

If the Xuanhuo True Dragon is not a dragon but a human, the speed of its transformation and the magnitude of its fall would be truly laughable.

Ye Yunjian smiled and said, "I don't know either. Maybe it's old and senile and misread something."
