Number One of the Imperial Family
"Climb the stairs? That brat really did climb the stairs for an hour... "
"To think that we were like idiots waiting outside to watch him climb the stairs. It's only the ninth floor, but he actually took almost an hour. How slow is that? He did it on purpose, he definitely did it on purpose! "
"What the f * ck! After all this fuss, it was really the Clansman Tower that was broken. I knew it, with that brat's character, how could he come out of the ninth floor alive! "
"After he went in, he didn't do anything at all. All he did was climb the stairs!"
"You guys go and try too. I've already passed the tower, so I can't go back. Otherwise, I definitely wouldn't miss this opportunity. Who cares if it's good or bad, I came out of the ninth floor alive..."
...
Seeing that Ye Xuan really came out of the ninth floor of the Immortal Ancestral Dragon Pagoda alive, the five princes couldn't accept it. Their minds were in a mess, and they couldn't even think properly. They foolishly believed Ye Xuan's pretentious words.
They even turned around and ordered the younger generation of the Imperial Family who hadn't passed the Immortal Ancestral Dragon Pagoda to take advantage of this opportunity to challenge the pagoda as well.
After all, even if the pagoda was broken, the fact that Ye Xuan was the only Imperial Family member to come out of the ninth floor alive was undeniable. No matter what, just based on this point alone, he was fully deserving of the title of Number One of the Imperial Family.
But if there was a large group of people following behind him, and all of them came out of the ninth floor alive, then Ye Xuan's limitless glory would naturally be diluted. This was the real reason why the five princes instigated the Imperial Family members behind them to challenge the pagoda.
Those fellows obviously didn't have enough brains to use. They actually believed Ye Xuan's words as well. For a moment, it was as if they'd been injected with chicken blood. They put their arms around each other's shoulders and formed a group as they charged towards the Immortal Ancestral Dragon Pagoda.
Originally, when they were 30 feet away from the tower, a green light would appear and wrap them up and disappear into the tower. However, at this moment, more than 20 people were walking in front of the tower, jumping up and down. They were almost touching the tower, but the expected green light did not appear.
After trying for a while, a full minute passed. Ye Xuan had already descended from the ninth floor. At this moment, he was chatting with Naples, the Purplish Warbler, Long Shishou, and the others with a smile. However, the green light still hadn't appeared …
"What's the situation? Why can't I go in? "
"It's over, it's over. This brat is really a scourge. Our Immortal Ancestral Dragon Pagoda has been ruined by him …"
"This brat is lying. How could he break the tower by climbing the stairs? I don't know what he's been doing in there, but after reaping the benefits, he actually completely cut off the other clansmen's escape route. He's so bad! "
"This matter isn't over yet. We must investigate this matter. This pagoda is the foundation of our immortal imperial clan, yet now it was destroyed by the hands of Eighteenth Elder. This cannot be tolerated!"
… …
At this time, the five princes all reacted. When they realized that they had actually believed Ye Xuan's words about climbing the stairs, their faces immediately flushed red with shame and anger. They kept insisting that the Immortal Ancestral Dragon Pagoda was damaged because of Ye Xuan, and that it couldn't be used now. All the blame was placed on Ye Xuan.
However, no one paid attention to these words.
Throughout history, this was the first time in the entire immortal imperial clan that someone had successfully passed through the ninth floor of the Immortal Ancestral Dragon Pagoda and walked out alive. Under such circumstances, it was understandable that the Immortal Ancestral Dragon Pagoda had some kind of unprecedented change.
Although it seemed that the Immortal Ancestral Dragon Pagoda couldn't be used now, as long as the pagoda was still here, then everything wasn't a problem. They just needed to understand the situation of the last three floors from Ye Xuan. If there was a problem, then they could think of a way to solve it.
Moreover, even if there was a change after successfully passing through the ninth floor, it could only be a good thing, not a bad thing. Therefore, the real higher-ups present didn't pay attention to the five princes' ill-intentioned clamor.
The dozens of imperial clan elders' Divine Senses that had been circling around the pagoda also retreated one after another and returned to the Elder Pavilion.
They weren't in a hurry. They just needed to find a time to summon Ye Xuan to understand the situation later.
Even the Immortal Emperor and Imperial Preceptor Di Er, who were at the peak of the Imperial Preceptor Hall in the distance, had disappeared at some point.
Apart from the five princes, there were only a few imperial uncles and a few members of the imperial clan present.
However, Ye Xuan didn't intend to pay attention to any of these guys. At this time, he was talking to Long Shishou, Naples, and the Purplish Warbler. As for Guihai Yidao and the wretched Mosquito Butcher, they were standing obediently at the side. Although they didn't say anything, they couldn't suppress the joy on their faces. Even a fool could tell at a glance.
"Hahaha …"
"Kid, you're now the number one member of the imperial clan in the entire Immortal Dynasty. Even the two freakish prodigies in history paled in comparison to you! I thought you'd come out from the sixth floor. I didn't expect you to have the guts to go to the seventh floor! "
"What's even more unexpected is that you actually came out from the ninth floor so smoothly in such a short time. I almost believed you when you said you were climbing the stairs. I almost lost my brain …"
At this time, the prefect of the Imperial Clan Court, Long Shishou, had already patted Ye Xuan's shoulder and raised his head to laugh. While he praised Ye Xuan, he didn't forget to take the opportunity to belittle the five princes, who were gnashing their teeth at the side.
These guys had schemed to use the Imperial Clan Court to deal with Ye Xuan. Long Shishou couldn't pursue this matter because of his status, but that didn't mean he could pretend that it didn't happen.
The five princes' faces that had just returned to normal immediately turned red after being ridiculed as they looked at each other angrily, but no one dared to say a word.
They didn't dare to offend the prefect of the Imperial Clan Court. If they did, they would definitely be punished.
"Tell me, kid, how much did you get this time? You're the first person in history to come out of the ninth floor alive. If you say you didn't get great benefits, I won't believe it even if you beat me to death! "
Seeing that these guys were angry but didn't dare to say anything, and all of them were behaving quite honestly, Long Shishou was an elder after all. He didn't dwell on the previous matter and turned his attention back to Ye Xuan. With a strong sense of curiosity, he directly asked him about his gains.
"It's nothing much. Apart from the three primordial bloodline abilities, I only rose eighteen small ranks and two large realms."
