Chapter 1281: The Momentum Is Already Set; Nothing Could Block It

Xiao Chen was startled. "Blocking two Primes at the same time?! Will he be alright?!"

"There is no need to panic. It is just a matter of delaying them and not a fight to the death. You really should thank him properly later. If not for him helping to delay them, I do not know when I could rush over." Ying Zongtian smiled calmly, reining in his strong Prime aura very well.

"Ying Zongtian, what a fellow! You did not undergo your Sovereign tribulation for one thousand years, but when you did so, you took three in one go, flinging us old folks far behind."

The Blood Shark Sovereign led the thirteen Great Bandits over, laughing as he spoke. Clearly, he was familiar with Ying Zongtian.

Ying Zongtian turned his head around and laughed as well. "Blood Shark Sovereign, we have not met for hundreds of years. Don't speak so sarcastically the moment we meet."

The many Martial Emperors present all came over and greeted Ying Zongtian. This newly advanced Prime did indeed possess a radiance that could attract people, making today's main character, Xiao Chen, appear somewhat dim.

"First Senior Sister, why have you returned from the Astral Battlefield?" Xiao Chen asked joyfully. The Astral Battlefield was extremely dangerous. Naturally, it was great news to see her safe and sound.

Shui Lingling smiled and said, "I'll speak to you after the Dragon's Gate's reestablishment ceremony."

Xiao Chen nodded and said, "After the ceremony is over, I have something for you."

"What?"

"I can't tell you now."

What was Xiao Chen going to give her? Naturally, it was the Emperor Yi Shooting Sun Bow that had sat in Xiao Chen's Universe Ring for a long time already. Although it no longer had an Item Spirit, it was once something that ranked fifth on the Divine Weapon Ranking.

With Ying Zongtian's arrival, the high platform turned noisy immediately.

The people of the Martial Emperors' circle were familiar with each other in the first place. However, they did not get to meet each other much. Given the rare gathering, they had many topics of discussion.

The Western Sea Dragon King and his group seemed to be ignored. They fidgeted nervously, all of them sweating internally and turning pale.

Seeing the lack of activity in those particular clouds, these Martial Emperors understood that the leaders of the various sects and ancient Noble Clans, as well as the Cyclic Astral Lord, had already left.

The reason was clear. With so many Sovereign Martial Emperors around, and Ying Zongtian as well, even if the Cyclic Astral Lord and the Sect Masters of the Heavenly Province Academy and the Five Poison Sect worked together, they would not be able to defeat this group of people.

The Dragon's Gate's reestablishment was guaranteed. The momentum was already set; nothing could block it!

The Western Sea Dragon King and his group continued to peek at the clouds. If they watched Xiao Chen successfully hold the Dragon's Gate reestablishment ceremony, would that not just vex them?

The elders of three Immortal Holy Lands and several ancient Noble Clans glared at the perpetrator of the whole matter with eyes brimming with hatred.

At this moment, Ao Lang was distracted. He was only thinking of how to pull himself out of this situation and avoid going through more humiliation. He did not care about the expressions of his group at all.

"Everyone, it seems like we forgot about some people." Ying Zongtian smiled faintly and focused his gaze on the distracted Western Sea Dragon King Ao Lang.

Instantly, many cold gazes shot over to the Western Sea Dragon King like sharp knives.

Ying Zongtian said indifferently, "You are just a weak Seventh Heaven Martial Emperor, but you are rather capable. You are even able to contact the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign, the Heaven Punishing Corpse God, and the East Mountain Ghost Monarch."

"Supreme Sky Prime, you are too serious, too serious!"

How could the Western Sea Dragon King dare to be arrogant and obstinate at all? Not to mention Ying Zongtian, most of the people here were much stronger than him. As for Ying Zongtian, he was someone on an entirely different level, not someone that Ao Lang could compare to.

When Ying Zongtian said that, the Western Sea Dragon King's heart thumped heavily in extreme nervousness.

The Blood Shark Sovereign smiled coldly and said, "You are rather capable. We just left the Black Sea when the Cyclic Astral Palace's Supreme Elder used the Nine Heavenly Star Formation to trap us. That is a formation that has been continuously improved by the Cyclic Astral Palace's various Palace Masters and is used to deal with Primes. We are truly honored to be treated like that by the Cyclic Astral Palace."

Ao Lang wiped the sweat from his forehead. He said anxiously, "That has nothing to do with me. I did not know that the Cyclic Astral Lord would be so decisive in making his move as well. I only casually mentioned it, only a casual mention. I did not make any promises or give any benefits."

The Flame Rock Sovereign snarled, "What a casual mention! That cost all of us one hundred years of our lifespans. Otherwise, we would still be trapped there."

"Brother Ao Lang, why the need to be so humble? My Northern Sea Alliance was blocked by the undying old men of the Five Poison Sect and the Heavenly Province Academy. According to them, it was all your plan."

Dugu Kuang glanced indifferently at Ao Lang and said, "It has been many years since another person dared to tell me to scram. Perhaps you are the only one with the courage to do so."

Before the many murderous gazes of various major characters, Ao Lang's heart pounded heavily, and his legs went soft.

The Western Sea Dragon King now finally understood why the other major characters were very happy when he stepped forward and took the lead. This result was too horrifying, being stared at by so many Sovereign Martial Emperors and even a Prime.

This situation was even more unbearable than killing him. In over a thousand years, the Western Sea Dragon King had not felt as sullen as he did now.

"Right, right, right! It was the Western Sea Dragon King that got us to do it. This time, we are in the wrong. This sword accompanied me for one hundred years. Take it as a congratulatory gift from me for the Dragon's Gate's reestablishment."

One of the old men from the ancient Noble Clans stepped forward and proffered a sword to Xiao Chen, trying to use it to wriggle out of this situation.

Xiao Chen looked at this person coldly. The loud mockery from this person still rang loud in his ears.

The matters of the world were very unpredictable. In the mere blink of an eye, this person bowed his head to Xiao Chen, trampling on the Western Sea Dragon King at the same time.

There was no need to pay much note to such a person. Xiao Chen received the sword and said, "Not bad, this is a pretty good sword. However, I seem to recall that you have already given me a congratulatory gift."

The old man smiled in embarrassment. "That's not a problem. This is an extra gift to display my sincerity. Congratulations to the Azure Dragon King on successfully reestablishing the Dragon's Gate. This old man can't remain any longer, and I'll be leaving first."

After saying that, the old man immediately flew away, unwilling to stay.

With this person taking the lead, the rest of the elders of the various Holy Lands and ancient Noble Clans all followed suit, pushing the responsibility to the Western Sea Dragon King. They all handed over congratulatory gifts and departed forthwith.

Xiao Chen did not stop these people. Things changed with the passage of time. With his mental state, he could already look past many of these things. It was best to leave a way out. Right now, he was not strong enough. If he persisted in humiliating these people, aside from venting his anger, he would not reap any benefits.

"You people are all extremely shameless!"

The Western Sea Dragon King felt so angered that he trembled when he saw this group of people casting rocks at him while he was down. He could not help cursing.

Ying Zongtian laughed loudly and said, "How rare that you can even say the word shameless. Little Brother, how do you want to deal with him? Today, he has broken all the rules already. There is no need to be polite with him."

The Western Sea Dragon King picked up a murderous intent in Ying Zongtian's tone. A chill ran down his back. Then, he looked at Xiao Chen and said, "Azure Dragon King, I was in the wrong today. Please give me a chance. I guarantee—"

Xiao Chen directly interrupted him, saying, "There is no need to guarantee anything. Scram right now, and that will do."

Ao Lang was somewhat in disbelief. Could it be just that simple?

"Did you not hear me clearly? I told you to scram right now!" Xiao Chen said coldly.

"Western Sea Dragon King, quickly scram!"

"Scram!"

Earlier, when the Western Sea Dragon King flaunted his might, he had arrogantly chased away tens of thousands of guests. Now that they found a chance to vent their frustration, they all shouted together.

Tens of thousands of people yelled "scram" at the same time. As the saying goes, "An overwhelming momentum can shake the clouds and the sea."

This was probably the so-called "reversal of the wheel of fortune." Earlier, Ao Lang made everyone scram. He probably would have never guessed that he would receive retribution so soon.

After being ordered to scram by tens of thousands of people in unison, Ao Lang provided a rare sight, his complexion alternating between green and red like he was running a fever.

"I'll go. I'll go now!" Ao Lang felt frustrated as he soared into the air, moving ten kilometers in the blink of an eye.

Ying Zongtian said indifferently, "Isn't just letting him go like that letting him off too easily? Brother Xiao Chen, you suffered so much injury and mental trauma. You can't just end it like this."

A murderous intent flashed in Ying Zongtian's eyes. Then, he raised his hand and threw a palm strike. The force traveled ten kilometers and landed heavily on Ao Lang's body.

"Pu ci!"

Ao Lang vomited a mouthful of blood, his internal organs shattered. He fell from the sky like a broken kite and crashed into the ground. Even after he landed, the force of the palm strike had yet to dissipate, sending him tumbling for more than five hundred kilometers.

As Ao Lang rolled away, wounds riddled his body, causing incomparable pain.

Just this simple palm strike demonstrated the tyranny of a Prime.

After the Western Sea Dragon King got chased away, the honored guests filled up the seats again. The atmosphere of the Dragon's Gate's reestablishment ceremony truly turned warm and friendly.

Everyone was happy; laughter rang out as they chatted. This was a rare gathering of Martial Emperors. Given this opportunity, they naturally would not miss out on it.

Just like the thirteen Great Bandits of the Black Sea, they took turns drinking with Ying Zongtian. The peak-grade wine that Mo Chen brewed disappeared cup after cup. Anyone who saw this scene would feel a pang in the heart.

"Xiao Chen, you are the host today, but you still have not offered us a toast yet. That is too unbecoming," the Flame Rock Sovereign said with a smile.

"That's right! That's right! You have to offer each of us at least three cups."

"How can three cups be enough? You all do not know that this fellow drank one thousand cups when he competed in drinking while he was in our Dark City and is now something of a legend."

"Is there really such a thing? In that case, I will have to compete with the Azure Dragon King in alcohol tolerance."

The Flame Rock Sovereign's mention of that matter set the guests abuzz wanting Xiao Chen to drink with them. Furthermore, just three cups were not enough.

Xiao Chen smiled and picked up the wine flask, immediately offering toasts. With every toast, he chugged down one entire wine flash, clearly displaying his sincerity and making everyone clap and cheer.

The Dragon's Gate's reestablishment ceremony could be carried out successfully because of all the honored guests present and the preparations of those from the Dragon's Gate.

After Xiao Chen offered toasts to all the honored guests, he started to offer them to his friends in Heavenly Dragon City—Mo Chen, Lan Shaobai, Lan Tianqi, Yue Chenxi, and so on—not missing any one of them.

The activities of the ceremony finally proceeded in an orderly fashion. No one caused any trouble after this; everything went smoothly.

"Xiao Chen, it's time to pull off the dragon flags!" Lan Shaobai whispered.

Xiao Chen nodded. The sky was already starting to turn dark as dusk approached. After the various activities of the Dragon's Gate's reestablishment ceremony, this was the final step.

With the Supreme Sky Prime and the various honored guests, no one dared to play any tricks. The Dragon's Gate's reestablishment was a sure thing.

Xiao Chen felt very solemn. The Dragon's Gate, which was destroyed ten thousand years ago, was at long last going to be reestablished at his hands.

After this, Xiao Chen would have settled one of the matters weighing his heart, fulfilling his responsibility as the Azure Emperor's descendant. Now, he was confident enough to return to the Sky Dome Realm and face the father who chased him out of the clan.

"Thank you, everyone, for coming, for allowing the Dragon's Gate's reestablishment ceremony to proceed successfully. Xiao Chen will never forget this grace. I will definitely repay this in the future!"
