The eyes of the three elders of the Xuanyuan Clan reddened instantly when they saw Xuanyuan Songtao standing in front of them. They could even vaguely see tears welling up in their eyes.
Xuanyuan Songtao was the previous patriarch of the Xuanyuan Clan. They didn't expect him to still be alive. Facing the three elders who stood rooted to the ground, Xuanyuan Songtao chuckled and said, "It's been so many years since we last met. Not bad. The little guy from back then has grown up and become the pillar of the Xuanyuan Clan."
"Patriarch …" The three elders choked with sobs when they heard this.
Xuanyuan Songtao's appearance shocked everyone in the Xuanyuan Clan. But apart from shock, there was also a strong sense of joy.
The Xuanyuan Clan was already at the cusp of the storm when Xuanyuan Wudi betrayed the clan. Moreover, without The Great Sage holding the fort, the Xuanyuan Clan was almost destined to fall out of the ranks of the Three Masters of the Human Race. At best, they would only be a powerful quasi-saint clan.
Without a Great Sovereign, they couldn't be called a Great Sage clan. This was a very simple principle. It was hard to imagine how big of a blow it would be if the Xuanyuan Clan, which had stood tall among the Human Race for so many years, fell out of the ranks of the Three Masters of the Human Race.
In addition, the rumors and slanders in the outside world these days made the hearts of every member of the Xuanyuan Clan heavy. They didn't know what path the Xuanyuan Clan should take in the future.
But just when everyone thought that the Xuanyuan Clan was at the end of their road, Xuanyuan Songtao suddenly appeared.
Xuanyuan Songtao didn't die, which meant that the Xuanyuan Clan still had The Great Sage holding the fort. In this way, the Xuanyuan Clan was still one of the Three Masters of the Human Race.
The experts of the Xuanyuan Clan couldn't be blamed for having reddened eyes. They had been under too much pressure these days. Xuanyuan Wudi betrayed the clan without warning. Without warning, the Xuanyuan Clan stood on the edge of a cliff and almost fell off the altar.
Looking at the expressions of the experts of the Xuanyuan Clan, Xuanyuan Songtao smiled and said, "Alright, what are you crying for? This old man isn't dead yet."
The experts of the Xuanyuan Clan forcefully held back their tears when they heard Xuanyuan Songtao.
It didn't take long for news of Xuanyuan Songtao's appearance to spread throughout the human race, and the commotion it caused was obvious. In the beginning, no one dared to believe it, but later on, the news that Xuanyuan Songtao was still alive was finally confirmed. Moreover, the Xuanyuan Clan announced that Xuanyuan Songtao had become the patriarch of the Xuanyuan Clan once more.
The matter could be said to be filled with twists and turns. First was Xuanyuan Wudi's betrayal of the clan, and then Xuanyuan Songtao's appearance, causing the entire Xuanyuan Clan to feel as if it was on a roller coaster of excitement in a short period of a few days.
However, to everyone's surprise, on the second day after Xuanyuan Songtao's death was announced, the Xuanyuan Clan announced to the public that the former number one genius of the Xuanyuan Clan, Xuanyuan Ling, hadn't died as well. He'd reincarnated instead, and his identity was Xiao Chen's sworn brother, Chen Ling.
Xuanyuan Ling didn't die? Oh, no, it should be said that he'd died, but he'd reincarnated. Everyone was taken aback when this news spread.
Reincarnation was too bizarre for anyone, but since the Xuanyuan Clan had announced Xuanyuan Ling's return, then his identity had clearly been confirmed.
The outside world was shaken by the news of Xuanyuan Songtao and Xuanyuan Ling. However, at this moment, the three elders of the Xuanyuan Clan were all present at Xuanyuan Ling's residence. They sighed emotionally as they looked at Xuanyuan Ling.
"Brother Ling, you really didn't die."
"Haha, I knew it. How could brother Ling have died?"
The three elders had a good relationship with Xuanyuan Ling because they were of the same generation. Moreover, Xuanyuan Ling had been the number one genius of the Xuanyuan Clan back then. He'd been ranked as the leader of the three elders of the Xuanyuan Clan at a young age. His prestige in the Xuanyuan Clan was very high.
Although Xuanyuan Ling had been reincarnated after so many years, and his cultivation had fallen from Half-step Great Sage to the current Sage Realm Great Mastery, the three elders still worshipped and respected Xuanyuan Ling. In their opinion, since Xuanyuan Ling was fine, he'd return to the peak sooner or later. It wouldn't be a problem even if he went one step further and became The Great Sage.
It was a reunion of old friends. Looking at the three elders of the Xuanyuan Clan in front of him, Xuanyuan Ling said with a smile. "The three of you haven't changed at all. This is my third brother. You all should know, right?"
Xuanyuan Ling said with a smile. Then, he pointed at Xiao Chen beside him and said to the three elders. Hearing this, the three elders nodded one after another.
"Who doesn't know Holy Son Xiao Chen? Since he's Brother Ling's third brother, he'll be our brother in the future. Haha." Hearing this, one of them laughed loudly.
Hearing this, Xiao Chen smiled helplessly. What was this? In terms of age, the three elders of the Xuanyuan Clan were older than Xiao Sheng. They were old enough to be his Old Ancestor. However, because of Xuanyuan Ling, the three elders had now become his brothers. In an instant, Xiao Chen's seniority had increased by many times.
If this was the case, then the younger generation of the Xuanyuan Clan like Xuanyuan Baizhan would have to respectfully call Xiao Chen Old Ancestor when they see him in the future. After all, Xiao Chen and the three elders of the Xuanyuan Clan called each other brothers.
Because of the matter of Xuanyuan Songtao and Xuanyuan Ling, the three elders' mood could no longer be described as excited. In short, they were happy.
However, just as the Xuanyuan Clan had turned misfortune into a blessing and everyone was immersed in excitement, the Dragon Emperor of the Dragon Clan naturally received the news of Xuanyuan Songtao and Xuanyuan Ling.
The Dragon Emperor didn't feel much about Xuanyuan Songtao. However, the Dragon Emperor seemed to have mixed feelings about Xuanyuan Ling.
After all, it was because Xuanyuan Ling had barged into the Dragon Clan and stolen Long Qing, who hadn't been born yet. As a result, Long Qing had been separated from the clan since she was young. As her father, he was also separated from Long Qing.
From this point of view, Xuanyuan Ling was indeed the enemy of the Dragon Clan and the Dragon Emperor. According to the Dragon Emperor's temper in the past, if he knew that Xuanyuan Ling was still alive, he would probably rush to the Human Clan and kill him again.
However, what made the Dragon Emperor feel most helpless was that Xuanyuan Ling was actually Long Qing's elder brother. This was difficult to deal with.
The original enemy had actually become Long Qing's elder brother. One had to know that it was because of Xuanyuan Ling that Long Qing had been separated from the clan since she was young.
Sitting in the garden, the Dragon Emperor gazed at Long Qing with an indescribable expression in his eyes. In the end, he couldn't help but let out a sigh.
"My dear daughter, do you know that Xuanyuan Ling was the one who took you away back then? If it weren't for him, you wouldn't have been homeless and miserable and suffered so much."
"I know, but you can't hurt him. If you dare to hurt Big Brother, I … I won't talk to you anymore." Upon hearing the Dragon Emperor's words, Long Qing said stubbornly. After this period of interaction, Long Qing had completely integrated into the Dragon Clan and accepted the Dragon Emperor as her father. Therefore, at this moment, Long Qing spoke like a daughter acting coquettishly to her father.
