Chapter 74: Chapter 74: The Myriad Thunders Obey, The Dragon Ascends to the Sky!

My lord?

The spectators were all perplexed.

Especially Mu Qi, who was even more bewildered, “Ghost King, this guy…”.

Before he could finish his sentence, the Ghost King had already impatiently stomped down.

Mu Qi didn’t even have the chance to cry out before he was crushed into a pulp, and then the Ghost King said with a face full of panic, “My lord, I truly didn’t know it was you who had come here, please forgive me!” At this moment, Xue An smiled faintly, “You… recognize me?”

The Ghost King shivered, cursing his bad luck inwardly.

“My lord, I once accompanied the Ghost Saint to the Heavenly Realm and happened to see you there!” the Ghost King said cautiously.

How could a Ghost King of his level have ever seen Xue An.

It was only once when he had accompanied a power of the Netherworld Realm to a grand event in the Heavenly Realm that he caught a glimpse of Xue An from a distance.

Back then, Xue An, seated at the foremost place, was respected by all the powers of the Heavenly Realm.

Such grandeur left a lasting impression on the Ghost King.

The Ghost Saint who had taken him there warned, “If you see this person in the future, stay as far away as possible, and do not provoke him!”

The Ghost King had etched this into his memory, never expecting to encounter Xue An in the mortal world.

At this moment, the Ghost King’s heart was trembling.

Even though Xue An’s presence wasn’t strong at the moment, he didn’t dare show any disrespect.

After all… that was the Immortal Venerable!

A figure who could create or destroy an entire realm with just a gesture!

Compared to him, what was he even worth?

Xue An nodded, “You are quite sensible!”

If the Ghost King could sweat, he probably would have been drenched in cold sweat by now, hurriedly nodding his head and bowing, “Yes, yes, yes! My lord, do you have any other orders?”

Xue An said indifferently, “I heard that this Wangui Sect often makes sacrifices to you?”

The Ghost King shuddered, saying in a rush, “My lord, I have no ties with this Wangui Sect, they just often make sacrifices to the Netherworld, so occasionally they reach out to me!”

Xue An nodded, “Do they use living souls for the sacrifices?”

The Ghost King felt like crying, cursing the Wangui Sect inwardly. Who else could have been provoked but such an ancestor? Was he courting death?

At this time, Xue An waved his hand, “Let it be, I will spare you this time. Do you know what to do in the future?”

The Ghost King nodded vigorously, patting his chest, “Rest assured, my lord, I understand!”

“Be gone!”

The Ghost King, feeling like he had received a great pardon, quickly slipped back into the time-space rift from which he had come.

Damn it, it looks like I’ll have to eat less of the mortal world’s incense offerings in the future! Otherwise, my little life is in jeopardy!

Then, Xue An looked down at the corpse of Mu Qi, smiling faintly, and with a flick of his finger.

A speck of light emerged from Mu Qi’s body and settled into Xue An’s hand, then took on the appearance of Mu Qi.

This was Mu Qi’s soul.

But now, Mu Qi’s face was filled with terror.

He had heard the conversation between the Ghost King and Xue An, and even a powerful being like the Ghost King was utterly deferential to Xue An.

What exactly was his background?

Mu Qi couldn’t help but feel deeply frightened, not daring to leave his body and hoping that Xue An would spare him.

Unfortunately, he had underestimated Xue An’s ability to hold a grudge.

“I said that today I would collect you!” Xue An said impassively.

Mu Qi’s soul kept bowing in Xue An’s palm, frantically pleading, “Spare my life, my lord, spare my life! I was blind and offended you, I beg you to forgive me!”

“Forgive you? But those souls you have harmed, did you ever spare them?” Xue An spoke, and a pure white flame rose again in the palm of his hand.

With a cry of agony, Mu Qi was burned to nothingness.

His soul dispersed, never to be heard from again.

The room fell into a deathly silence.

Elder Zhai stared dumbfounded, muttering to himself under his breath, “Xiao

An, what have you gone through in these four years?”

And people like Feng Chaochou and Zuo Yuqi were even more terrified, not daring to raise their heads.

Especially Feng Chaochou, at this moment his heart was filled with panic.

He actually still thought about dealing with this man?

It was really overestimating himself!

And Zuo Yuqi at this time, was almost ready to kneel down.

Because he understood just how terrifying that Ghost King was.

It could even be said that if that Ghost King snapped his fingers, everyone present would be shattered to souls and spirits.

And yet, such a terrifying being was showing utmost respect towards Xue An.

The origins of Xue An were something Zuo Yuqi didn’t even dare to think about.

And at this moment, the overcast clouds in the sky gradually started to disperse, and the expression on the Jiaolong became increasingly pained.

Xue An looked up and said indifferently, “Now, I will help you ascend to the heavens!”

As he spoke, he suddenly leaped into the air, pointing one hand towards the sky, and softly shouted, “Listen to my command, thunder!”

With a series of rumbling sounds, the previously thinning clouds suddenly thickened, and within the swirling vortex in the center, there were faint flashes of lightning.

The Jiaolong raised its head, a glint of determination flashing through its serpentine eyes.

At that moment, Xue An shouted lightly, “Strike!”

A gigantic bolt of lightning, half a mile thick, plunged downward.

The thunder roared deafeningly, its brightness illuminating the sky!

All people trembled under the might of heaven and earth!

An Qing and the guards who followed her were all shocked, especially An Qing, who murmured to herself.

“Sis, brother-in-law seems to have become an Immortal Venerable!”

The lightning bolt headed straight for Jiaolong, and the small flags set up by Zuo Yuqi didn’t even struggle before they turned to ash.

The Jiaolong let out a huge roar and rose from the pool, charging towards the lightning bolt.

With a huge bang.

Mount Qingmang itself trembled.

Xue An stood in midair with his hands behind his back and said indifferently, “This thunder, that’s what you call a dragon ascending to the heavens!”

Accompanied by his words, a dragon’s roar that penetrated heaven and earth rang out.

Under this strike of lightning, the Jiaolong completely shed its python skin, the python scales receded, and dragon scales emerged!

Dragon horns stood tall and magnificent, with a pair of dragon claws growing on its underside!

Since then, a Giant Dragon with a camel-like head, deer-like horns, rabbit-like eyes, ox-like ears, snake-like neck, mirage-like belly, carp-like scales, eagle-like claws, and tiger-like palms emerged before everyone. Everyone was stunned.

Zuo Yuqi, even more, said blankly, “It’s a Five-clawed dragon! This is ascension in one step!”

The Giant Dragon rolled in the sky and then flew down to Xue An’s feet, carrying him directly.

This was the true definition of riding a dragon to ascend to the heavens! Xue An smiled and then said, “Bring my two daughters over!”

The Giant Dragon obediently landed on the ground, and Xue An stretched out his hand towards his two daughters, “Come, Daddy will take you to play!”

Xue Xiang and Xue Nian came over without any fear.

Then Xue An also said to Elder Zhai and An Qing, “Let’s go.”

Elder Zhai was trembling all over at this moment.

This Jiaolong was the reason he resided in Mount Qingmang and the sentiment of his late master.

Naturally, he felt joy seeing the Jiaolong ascend to the heavens. Once everyone was on the dragon’s back, Xue An said, “Let’s go!”

The Giant Dragon roared and shot straight up into the sky.

It quickly disappeared above the heavens.

Zuo Yuqi and Feng Chaochou stood stupefied for a while before looking at each other.

“Mr. zuo….’

Zuo Yuqi, his spirit crushed, waved his hand, “Feng Shao, let’s go! This man is not someone we can afford to provoke!”
