Chapter 1055: Heading To The Primordial Celestial Shrine (1/2)

“That’s right, Ancestor! Even though Huang Xiaolong has done a meritorious deed by winning the first place in the three sects’ joint training, bringing glory to our sect, we cannot break long-established rules and give him authority and treatment equal to a Grand Elder!” Seeing Cao Yang spoke, Zhuang Xuan also bravely stepped forward, trying to persuade Lu Zhuo.

“Chen Hao is our Barbarian God Sect's chief disciple, but even he only has authority and treatment equivalent to an Elder.” Huang Junfei joined in cautiously. “Huang Xiaolong is still a mere core disciple, how could he possess authority exceeding Chen Hao?”

Several Grand Elders who supported Chen Hao also joined in, ‘sincerely’ persuading Lu Zhuo.

Lu Zhuo’s brows furrowed slightly, getting annoyed. In an instant, an overwhelming divine might soared to the sky from his body as he snorted in displeasure, “Rules? Aren’t my words rules?”

Facing Lu Zhuo’s overwhelming pressure, Cao Yang, Zhuang Xuan, Huang Junfei, and the others became ashen, quickly falling to their knees in apprehension and screaming they dared not defy.

“Enough, this matter is decided!” Lu Zhuo harrumphed coldly, leaving no doubt toward his decision.

The trio formed by Cao Yang, Zhuang Xuan, and Huang Junfei dared not utter another word of objection.

Lu Zhuo turned toward Huang Xiaolong, the sharp stern face from earlier was replaced by a kind and warm smile, “Xiaolong, rest well these couple of days. Two days later, I will bring you to cultivate inside the Primordial Celestial Shrine.” The change was like a different person altogether.

Huang Xiaolong and another inner disciple who were in the top ten complied respectfully.

Lu Zhuo subsequently mentioned to Huang Xiaolong that he could make two requests, which Huang Xiaolong used to claim a grade three spiritual vein and ten thousand Tenth Order Heavenly God Realm godheads.

The grade three spiritual vein was for himself, whereas the godheads were for Xiaoniū.

The Barbarian God Sect might not be able to take out ten grade three spiritual veins, but they could still afford one. Thus, in public, Lu Zhuo took out the grade three spiritual vein and ten thousand Tenth Order Heavenly God Realm godheads, giving them to Huang Xiaolong.

A short while later after the reward ceremony came to an end, everyone dispersed.

Another half an hour later, from inside Chen Hao’s cultivation dwelling, a beast-like furious roar shook the air. Chen Hao was smashing everything in sight and his eyes were scarlet like an angered wild beast. Several stone pillars inside the hall were shattered amidst his fury, hence the hall’s roof was swaying at the moment, on the verge of collapse.

All the present Sky Dragon League members quivered in fear.

“Lu Zhuo that old fart! I, the chief disciple, only have an Elder’s authority and treatment, on what basis does that Huang Xiaolong exceed me?!” Chen Hao bellowed.

“Based on what?!”

“Why?!”

Chen Hao’s raging shouts continued to shake the hall, yet no one had the answer.

In the hall, Cao Yang, Zhuang Xuan, Huang Junfei, and others watched the manic Chen Hao. They couldn’t help frowning, then shook their heads in slight disappointment moments later. Then again, anyone in Chen Hao’s shoes would go crazy at the news!

“Alright, all of you go out.” Cao Yang ordered the present Sky Dragon League disciples.

Everyone quickly acknowledged and fled out of the hall.

Cao Yang looked at Chen Hao and said, “For that old guy Lu Zhuo to announce such a decision today, there must be a reason deeper than winning first place in the three sects’ joint training.”

Zhuang Xuan spoke with heavy solemness, “We’ve long since doubted that Huang Xiaolong’s godhead is a low grade king rank. Judging from the events today, Ancestor probably knows what his real godhead is, otherwise he would not have announced it in such a high-profile manner.”

Chen Hao had calmed down slightly by now and his eyes glimmered, resembling the venomous stare of a viper.

“I would guess Huang Xiaolong’s godhead is at least top grade king rank!” Huang Junfei made a bold guess.

“Top grade king rank!” Cao Yang and Zhuang Xuan exclaimed. Their expressions weren't necessarily filled with shock, but denial.
