Ao Rui and the others' shouts of acclaim resonated across the sky, lingering long and far.
"My thanks for your hard work," Yang Xiaotian came before the ten people including Ao Rui and helped them to their feet.
Hearing Yang Xiaotian's acknowledgment of their efforts, the eyes of the ten guardians who had protected the Ancestral Dragon Hall for millions of years all reddened in emotional response.
In that instant, they felt that their millions of years of guardianship had been worth it.
"Your Majesty, it is our duty," Ao Rui said with tears in his aged eyes.
Yang Xiaotian nodded, then asked the Golden Dragon, Black Dragon, and all the other Long Clan experts to rise, and said to Ao Rui, "I am here today to fuse with the Primordial Dragon Body."
"Yes, we will show the way for Your Majesty," Ao Rui and the others said respectfully, bowing.
They had already guessed Yang Xiaotian's purpose for coming today, so they were not surprised.
