Long Zhuoyan appeared in the sky.
Apart from Chu Feng, no one else could see Long Zhuoyan's true face.
She radiated brilliant light, and to the others, she appeared as a blinding sun descending upon the world, with only a vague silhouette visible within.
The first reaction of the Dragon Breath Clan was that a powerful enemy had invaded.
Even those who had already entered the formations to cultivate immediately flew out, weapons at the ready.
Long Mucheng was the first to shield Chu Feng and Long Xiaoxiao behind her, her voice sharp as she demanded, "Who dares trespass upon the territory of our Dragon Breath Clan?"
"Senior, she's one of us," Chu Feng quickly said to Long Mucheng upon seeing this.
"One of us?" Long Mucheng's expression faltered.
"Who's one of them with her? Are they even worthy?" Long Zhuoyan showed absolutely no courtesy whatsoever.
The moment those words left her mouth, the already agitated members of the Dragon Breath Clan were thrown into a fury. One by one, they brandished their weapons, shouting as they prepared to strike.
Boom— And in that very instant, an invisible pressure descended from the heavens, instantly engulfing the entire Primordial Storage World.
Heaven and earth fell silent.
Every member of the Dragon Breath Clan could feel death looming over them. Not only could they not speak, they couldn't even make a sound of pain.
"Sister, these seniors have been on good terms with me. They simply don't recognize you — there was absolutely no intent of disrespect," Chu Feng said quickly, seeing the situation turn dire. He feared that if Long Zhuoyan grew displeased, she would simply annihilate the entire Dragon Breath Clan on the spot.
In Chu Feng's eyes, this was something Long Zhuoyan was perfectly capable of doing.
At the same time, Chu Feng secretly transmitted his voice to the members of the Dragon Breath Clan, roughly informing them of Long Zhuoyan's identity.
Truth be told, the oppressive aura Long Zhuoyan had been releasing had already made them realize the severity of the situation.
And when they learned that this was none other than the Ancestral Dragon of the Totem Dragon Clan, they actually felt somewhat relieved — relieved that this person was someone Chu Feng knew.
Fortunately, after Chu Feng interceded, the pressure was withdrawn, and the members of the Dragon Breath Clan were able to regain their freedom.
"My lady, we humbly apologize for not knowing your identity. Please forgive our earlier insolence."
Long Mucheng led the members of the Dragon Breath Clan in bowing and offering their apologies to Long Zhuoyan.
But who could have expected that Long Zhuoyan would pay them no heed whatsoever? Instead, she turned her gaze to Chu Feng.
"Brother, whatever you need to say to them, say it quickly. I'm taking the two of you and leaving."
With those words, Long Zhuoyan's figure vanished.
But since the Primordial Storage World was an enclosed space, everyone knew she was still there.
"Chu Feng, it seems this lady does not wish for me to accept Miss Xiaoxiao as my disciple."
"And as a true dragon, I indeed have no right to take Miss Xiaoxiao as my disciple in her presence."
The first part of Long Mucheng's words were transmitted secretly, because she knew Long Zhuoyan's status was vastly beyond their own, and she feared that saying the wrong thing might displease her.
Then, she spoke openly for all to hear: "Chu Feng, this time it is all thanks to you and Miss Xiaoxiao that our Dragon Breath Clan was able to complete Lord Xuantian's task. Our Dragon Breath Clan has no way to repay such a kindness. Once our clan has finished our cultivation, we will follow your orders. Whenever you need us, even if it means climbing mountains of blades or plunging into seas of fire, our Dragon Breath Clan will come to your aid."
"Senior, it was a small favor — please don't be so formal, or Xiaoxiao and I will be too embarrassed. After all, we've already received our rewards."
As he spoke, Chu Feng held up the Universe Bag he had just received, then added, "Make sure to cultivate properly. Don't waste this formation."
Chu Feng could tell that the power of this formation was extraordinary. If the Dragon Breath Clan could seize this opportunity, they would undergo a true transformation.
After the conversation concluded, Long Mucheng opened the Primordial Storage World, and Long Zhuoyan reappeared, stepping out first.
After their farewells, the Primordial Storage World closed once more, and Chu Feng and Long Xiaoxiao caught up to Long Zhuoyan.
