Chapter 1094 - 1094: A Welcome
The welcoming banquet that Dragon Rearing Family had prepared was grand in scale. There were more than ten thousand people attending, and many of those attending were the newly grown figures of the younger generation of Dragon Rearing Family. When Xia Ping ‘an and Dragon Rearing Jinghong entered the venue, the entire venue erupted with cheers that were like a tsunami.
“Young Master…”
“Young Master…”
“Young Master…”
Countless young people’s gazes were focused on Xia Ping ‘an as they called out his name. The scene was too lively, like a meet-and-greet between a superstar and his fans. It shocked Xia Ping ‘an, but the youngsters in the hall were more disciplined. He didn’t expect that the Dragon Rearing Cicada would still have such a great influence on the younger generation of the Dragon Rearing family even though it hadn’t returned to Tianfang City for so many years.
To the younger generation of the Dragon Rearing Family, the name Dragon Rearing Cicada was their idol and spiritual sustenance. Almost every child of the Dragon Rearing Family had grown up listening to the legend of Dragon Rearing Cicada. From a certain perspective, Dragon Rearing Cicada was the pride of the Dragon Rearing Family.
Dragon Rearing Jinghong had a smile on his face as he nodded slightly to the surrounding people. He held Xia Ping ‘an’s arm as a grandfather and grandson who were nominally related by blood. They entered the main seat of the hall in a symbolic manner.
Xia Ping ‘an glanced at Long Jinghong, and a thought flashed through his mind. Perhaps this was the atmosphere that he had deliberately created. His goal was to let everyone know that the genius expert of the Dragon Rearing family had returned to the family at this time.
For the real Dragon Rearing Cicada, this scene must have been extremely disgusting. The real Dragon Rearing Cicada had experienced the cold-blooded, dark, and snobbish side of this family. Therefore, he was disdainful of the ardent care and flattery that this family showed him at this moment. For a person who had climbed out of the abyss by himself, there were too few things in this world that were worthy of his nostalgia.
The blood of this family flowed in his body, and this family had caused him to lose the closest person to him since he was young. He had experienced the cold and warm of the world. Dragon Rearing Cicada hated this family from the bottom of his heart, but he could not get rid of the predestined brand and responsibility brought by his blood. This contradiction was perhaps the fundamental reason why Dragon Rearing Cicada was willing to give up his identity and leave the Dragon Rearing family to start a new life. At the same time, he was willing to let others play his role.
At this moment, Xia Ping ‘an felt that he finally understood Dragon Rearing Cicada. He had an inexplicable resonance with this genius expert of Dragon Rearing Family. It was like a real actor blending into his role.
With this thought in mind, Xia Pingan’s face looked at the lively scene and smiled. In that smile, there was an additional hint of compassion, disdain, and a little cynical ridicule. However, his eyes were still as calm as an old well without a trace of passion.
In the eyes of outsiders, this was the unique cold temperament of the young master of the Dragon Rearing family.
When Dragon Rearing Jinghong saw Xia Ping ‘an’s smile and gaze, his heart trembled slightly. He even became a little absent-minded because even he couldn’t tell whether this person in front of him was really an imposter or a prank from Dragon Rearing Cicada. As a form of revenge against the family, Dragon Rearing Cicada had already grasped a secret technique that could cut off the connection between him and himself. That was why he returned to Dragon Rearing Family as a bystander.
Also, the Bloodline Divine Root Drawing Skill of Ancient God Immortal Scripture was the unique skill of Dragon Cicada. Ancient God Immortal Scripture was very picky about the people who could cultivate it. Even if 10,000 Demigods with ancient god bloodline could cultivate this secret skill, they might not be able to cultivate it even if they gave him Ancient God Immortal Scripture. Was there really another person in the world who could master Ancient God Immortal Scripture in such a short period of time?
Xia Ping ‘an and Dragon Rearing Cicada came to the main seat of the hall. There were two tables placed side by side here. Dragon Rearing Jinghong and Xia Ping’ an sat at the same table. The tables of the other elders and hall masters were on both sides. This also announced the status of Dragon Rearing Cicada in the Dragon Rearing family.
The host of the welcoming banquet was an elder of the Dragon Rearing family’s reception hall. He was an old man with thick black eyebrows and a refined temperament. The elder of the reception hall had long prepared a wonderful speech. He first reviewed the various achievements that the Dragon Rearing family had achieved under the leadership of Dragon Rearing Startled Swan, then he described the significance of the return of the Dragon Rearing Cicada to the Dragon Rearing family to the point that it touched the hearts of the people. He made the young people of the Dragon Rearing family in the main hall extremely excited. After laying the foundation, That elder then asked Dragon Rearing Graceful to say a few words.
Dragon Rearing Cicada stood up and looked around with a dignified expression. He only said one sentence in a deep voice,” From now on, Dragon Rearing Cicada will be the youngest elder of our Dragon Rearing family. He will be overseeing the Lingyuan Hall of the Dragon Rearing family!”
As soon as Dragon Rearing Jinghong finished speaking, the entire hall instantly boiled over. Countless young people from the Dragon Rearing family began to shout excitedly.
Among the various halls of the Dragon Rearing family, the most honorable one was the Lingyuan Hall of the Dragon Rearing family. This Lingyuan Hall was above all the other halls and was the ancestral hall of the Dragon Rearing family. The elders who presided over the Lingyuan Hall were equivalent to the symbol of the super martial strength and confidence of the Dragon Rearing family. Over the years, because Dragon Rearing Cicada had never been an elder of the Dragon Rearing family, the outside world had all kinds of suspicions about the Dragon Rearing family. There were even rumors that Dragon Rearing Startling Dragon and Dragon Rearing Cicada were not on good terms. This time, with Dragon Rearing Cicada returning to the family as an elder to preside over the Lingyuan Hall, The suspicions of the outside world could disappear.
Xia Ping ‘an listened expressionlessly. All of this was within his expectations and was also part of the “deal”. Although the elders of the Lingyuan Hall held a high position in the Dragon Rearing Family, they were more of a name than a weapon. They were a little like the nuclear arsenal of a big country. To a certain extent, the deterrence and symbolic significance were greater. In fact, the elders of the Lingyuan Hall rarely had to worry about anything. They were also more free to move and would not be bound by the Dragon Rearing Family. Cultivating to improve himself, it was best to become a god–this was the biggest responsibility of the Lingyuan Hall eider. He liked this very much, and it coincided with his pursuit.
Apart from him, there seemed to be two or three elders at the level of old monsters hiding in the Lingyuan Hall of the Dragon Rearing family. However, those elders had not shown themselves for hundreds of years and were a secret of the Dragon Rearing family. As for the exact situation, only the clan leader, Dragon Rearing Jinghong, knew.
When the cheers in the hall died down, Dragon Rearing glanced at Xia Ping ‘an.” Now, may I ask Elder Chan to say a few words to everyone?”,After saying this, Dragon Rearing Jinghong sat down.
Everyone was looking forward to becoming an elder of the family at this time and on this occasion. It would be inappropriate if he didn’t say anything.
Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Xia Pingan stood up. He swept his gaze across the people in the hall and was silent for two seconds.” I’m not invincible yet. Cultivation is my eternal pursuit. There are still many Godly Venerable Rank experts in this world whose cultivation has surpassed mine. Moreover, the gods have all appeared, and the signs of chaos in the Spirit Wilderness mystic realm have already appeared. Therefore, the Dragon Rearing family won’t be able to rest easy just because of my return. You have to be clear about this, but as long as I have enough time, I’m confident that I can become a god…”
After saying this, Xia Ping ‘an glanced at Dragon Rearing Starry Swan and sat down. His words were actually meant for Dragon Rearing Starry Swan to hear. He would not be controlled by Dragon Rearing Family, nor could he guarantee anything to them. However, it was fine if they cooperated for mutual benefit. His goal was to become stronger and become a god. As long as Dragon Rearing Family could help him, he would cherish his identity as Dragon Rearing Cicada. He would use this identity to protect Dragon Rearing Family’s interests within his ability.
After Xia Ping ‘an finished speaking, the hall fell silent for a few seconds before thunderous applause rang out. To many people in the hall, this was the style of the young master. He was sharp and direct, never beating around the bush, and even spoke in such a domineering and confident manner when he said that he wanted to become a god. This was the true young master of the Dragon Rearing family.
Dragon Rearing Jinghong looked deeply at Xia Ping ‘an and raised his wine cup. Xia Ping’ an also raised his wine cup.
This welcoming banquet was very successful for many people in the Dragon Rearing family. It greatly boosted the morale of the family. During the banquet, the elders and hall masters of the Dragon Rearing family frequently toasted Xia Ping ‘an and tried to build a relationship with him. Their bright and passionate smiles seemed to have forgotten the miserable state of Dragon Rearing, who had been beaten into a pit by Xia Ping’ an.
After the banquet, Dragon Rearing and Xia Ping ‘an left first. After sending everyone away, Dragon Rearing and Xia Ping’ an arrived at the secret chamber in his bedroom.
Dragon Rearing Jinghong looked at Xia Ping ‘an with a complicated expression. He hesitated for a moment before his tone became warmer and more emotional.” You…” Is it really not Chan ’er?”
Xia Ping ‘an blinked.” Clan Leader, my current identity is the Dragon Rearing Cicada. Why would Clan Leader say such a thing?”
When he heard Xia Ping ‘an call him clan leader, Dragon Rearing Jinghong understood. He looked at Xia Ping’ an with a complicated gaze and gradually became a little disappointed. Then, he sighed and laughed at himself.” I understand. 1 was thinking too much. I’m very happy that Chan ‘er can return today!”
“I’m also very happy to come to Heavenly Square City!”
“Can you tell me what realm your cultivation is at now so that I can have some confidence?”Dragon Rearing Jinghong was the clan leader after all. After he put away his emotions, his gaze became sharp again and landed on Xia Ping ‘an’s face.
Xia Ping ‘an was silent for a moment. Then, he extended four fingers at Dragon Rearing Graceful. Then, he extended another finger, turning it into five fingers.
“I’m already a Rank Four Supreme God Realm expert. I can fight a Rank Five Supreme God Realm expert…” Dragon Rearing Jinghong sucked in a breath of cold air.
Xia Ping ‘an nodded calmly. Before meeting Elder Jing, he was indeed only a Rank Three Venerable God. However, after meeting Elder Jing, he had succeeded in cultivating the Ancient God’s Immortal Scripture. The potential of his entire body, the power of fusing the body of a god and the body of an ancient god, had been stimulated by the Ancient God’s Immortal Scripture. It had once again ignited a wisp of divine flame in him. Therefore, he was now a Rank Four Venerable God.
As the clan leader of the Dragon Rearing clan, Dragon Rearing Hong was only a Rank Four Supreme God Realm expert. However, he knew that if they really fought, he would probably not be a match for this Dragon Rearing Cicada in front of him.
“The Dragon Rearing Family is facing a difficult problem right now, and I’m afraid we’ll need your help’.”After the shock, Dragon Rearing Jinghong’s spirit was slightly roused as he said directly..
