"Hey, hey! Why aren't you thanking me?"

Xiao Song looked up, dissatisfied, and said, "I was the one who fished you up!"

Ancestor Dragon looked down and couldn't help but smile.

He squatted down and clasped his fist toward Xiao Song: "Thank you too, fellow Daoist!"

"That's more like it."

Xiao Song said with a grin, "If you could give me a few more chances, I'd be very happy!"

Ancestor Dragon didn't know how to respond.

Fortunately, Xuanqing came to his rescue: "Fellow Daoist Chenxing, let's return to the Taiwei Constellation first."

"Alright!"

Xuanqing and the others bid farewell to the Ferryman and Xiao Song and started to return to the Primordial.

Xiao Song waved at them: "Remember to visit often!"

~~~~~

Along the way, Taishang explained to Ancestor Dragon all that happened after his "death."

When Ancestor Dragon heard about everyone robbing Hong Jun, he immediately lamented: "Oh dear, such a good opportunity, and I missed it!"

In the Taiwei Constellation, Ancestor Dragon was always the most enthusiastic about robbing Spiritual Treasures.

And when Xuanqing told Ancestor Dragon that it was Hong Jun who plotted against him, Ancestor Dragon became even angrier: "That old thief Hong Jun, you owe me too much!"

"Yo, Fellow Daoist Chenxing is back?"

Not far away, Demon Ancestor Luo Hou walked over.

Usually aloof, he seemed to be in a great mood, his face glowing with a bright smile: "Congratulations on your return, fellow Daoist!"

"Congratulations to you too!"

Ancestor Dragon congratulated Luo Hou on forcing Hong Jun into a desperate situation.

They emptied Hong Jun's treasury, forcing him to resort to self-destructing his Three Corpses to break the stalemate—isn't that pushing him to death?

"You're too kind, too kind. It's all thanks to the Heavenly Emperor and Ying Huo!"

Luo Hou did not claim all the credit. If not for Xuanqing and Yuan Huang summoning Hong Jun's Treasure Sharing Cliff in the end, Hong Jun wouldn't have been so desperate.

That "Heavenly Distance" divine skill also opened everyone's eyes.

Ancestor Dragon marveled: "No denying it, Ying Huo is truly remarkable!"

These unconventional yet remarkably effective divine skills are just what Ying Huo Venerable could create.

"We're almost at the Taiwei Constellation. Remember to change into your divine gear, fellow Daoist," Luo Hou suddenly reminded.

Ancestor Dragon, upon his return, was wearing casual clothes.

It was unclear which adventure to Ruishui River had left him looking like this.

"Alright!"

Ancestor Dragon immediately changed into the Water Star Venerable's divine gear.

Everyone returned to the Taiwei Constellation.

Fu Xi, Nuwa, Taiyi, Wang Shu, Ming River, and others also returned one after another.

In the final moments, everyone had to rely on their own means to retreat, with no time for each other.

Except for Fu Xi and Nuwa, who were in good condition, the other divine beings were somewhat disheveled.

However, once they were in the Taiwei Constellation, everyone changed into their exclusive divine gear, looking full of vigor.

This made Luo Hou very pleased.

"Fellow Daoist Chenxing is back? The Heavenly Emperor sure moves fast!"

Seeing Ancestor Dragon return so quickly, everyone congratulated him.

Ancestor Dragon smiled at all the gods: "You guys pulled off something huge without a word, I'm so envious!"

"Don't worry, there will be more chances." Nearby, the Wood Star Venerable Fu Xi patted his shoulder.

"I'll be waiting for that."

All the gods chatted and joked for a while.

Xuanqing knocked on the Chaos Long Table, announcing the formal start of the meeting.

"The main theme of this meeting is simple, just seven words—'Carry Victory to the End'!"
