Everyone nodded in agreement upon hearing the Ancient Demon Lord's words, since once the Yuan Clan's Divine Son arrived, they would absolutely crush them in terms of both numbers and strength.
Without further hesitation, they quickly evacuated the area.
Seeing this, Yuan Haoran stopped chasing after them. What they needed now was to recuperate properly, since most of the ten major Yuan clan members were already seriously injured.
As long as they remain within this Divine Source Secret Realm, they will have a chance to meet again. At that time, Yuan Haoran can fight without restraint and no longer need to worry about the safety of the Yuan Clan members. After all, the Yuan Clan still has a Chaos Body Divine Son who can protect everyone.
Seeing everyone gathered around her, Yuan Ruochu cupped her hands and said, "I will remember your help this time. If you ever need me in the future, I will do my best to help you."
Everyone bowed and replied, "It's a trivial matter, nothing to mention."
Yuan Haoran slowly flew towards Yuan Ruochu, and everyone was astonished to see him. They had been focused on the battle and hadn't paid much attention to Yuan Haoran, but now that he was approaching, they realized his aura was far stronger than anyone else's. Yuan Haoran's terrifying aura made everyone curious about his identity.
At this moment, Dao Wudao also vaguely sensed an aura from this person that was as familiar as his own innate Dao body. However, this aura was much stronger than his own.
At this moment, Yuan Ruochu stepped forward and introduced, "Everyone, this is an ancient freak of my Yuan clan. He is also a divine son of the Yuan clan in a certain period of the ancient era. He is an invincible forbidden being, and his physique is the innate holy body Dao embryo."
"Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo? Former Yuan Clan Divine Child."
Both pieces of news were so shocking that everyone present was stunned. The Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo is an existence comparable to the Chaos Body. The number of times such a physique has appeared throughout countless eons is less than one hand's count—an incredibly heaven-defying constitution. And the Yuan Clan Divine Child—those present who knew the history of the Yuan Clan after its emergence knew the importance of the Yuan Clan Divine Child within the Yuan Clan.
Yuan Haoran was also observing the crowd: those with innate sword bodies and innate Dao bodies, as well as a group of forbidden supreme experts. He was quite astonished, knowing that each of them, if placed in their own era, would be an invincible existence among their peers. This era was truly the most extraordinary one yet, with almost half of the top ten in terms of physique present, including himself. He then began to discuss with the others.
Just as everyone was talking animatedly, several powerful auras came from afar.
Upon sensing the aura, the atmosphere immediately became oppressive, and Yuan Haoran's expression turned particularly serious. He sensed an aura within it that was like a bottomless abyss, its depths unfathomable. Everyone present could feel this aura, which was even stronger than Yuan Haoran's, and the atmosphere inexplicably tense once again.
Just as everyone was on edge, Yuan Ruochu burst into laughter. Everyone was bewildered and looked at her.
At this moment, Yuan Ruochu spoke up to explain, "Don't be so nervous, it's our own people who are coming." Yuan Ruochu had sensed that it was Yuan Zhexian and his group coming because of the jade pendant that Yuan Zhexian had given him.
Soon, several figures appeared in everyone's sight. In just a few breaths, they were standing in front of everyone.
After Yuan Zhexian and the others appeared, everyone realized who Yuan Ruochu meant by "their own people." The tense atmosphere instantly dissipated.
"Divine Child," Yuan Ruochu said, bowing slightly to Yuan Zhexian.
"No need for such formalities, cousin," Yuan Zhexian said with a smile.
"Is he the current divine son of the Yuan clan?"
The newly awakened ancient oddities all stared at Yuan Zhexian. His perfect face, ethereal气质, and terrifying aura all proclaimed that Yuan Zhexian was an unparalleled figure.
Yuan Haoran was even more surprised. He was the strongest among everyone present, possessing the cultivation of a quasi-saint and the physique of an innate saintly body. Yet, he felt immense pressure from Yuan Zhexian. Crucially, he could immediately discern Yuan Zhexian's ninth-level Reincarnation Realm cultivation, which explained his astonishment.
At this moment, Yuan Ruochu introduced everyone to Yuan Zhexian and recounted what had just happened. After listening, Yuan Zhexian's expression darkened. He then looked at everyone and said, "Fortunately, you all came to our aid today; otherwise, my people would have suffered heavy casualties. My Yuan clan appreciates your kindness today, and I will surely repay you all in the future."
Everyone was overjoyed to hear Yuan Zhexian's words. To receive a personal promise from Yuan Zhexian was more precious than obtaining a peerless treasure.
Yuan Zhexian then looked at Yuan Haoran and said, "Brother, I am Yuan Zhexian, the divine son of our clan."
Yuan Zhexian deliberately avoided using the word "contemporary," and Yuan Haoran, not to be outdone, retorted, "Brother, my name is Yuan Haoran. You and I are divine sons, one preceding the other, and our physiques are also at opposite ends of the spectrum. I think we will have an earth-shattering battle."
Yuan Zhexian was also surprised, not expecting Yuan Haoran to be so straightforward; he had thought they would exchange a few more pleasantries. However, Yuan Zhexian also quite admired Yuan Haoran.
Then Yuan Zhexian replied, "I know my cousin will not accept me, but it's alright. I always try to win people over with virtue." He finished speaking and smiled slightly.
Yuan Ruochu, Ji Jingtian, and those familiar with Yuan Zhexian all knew that Yuan Haoran was about to suffer.
Yuan Haoran added, "This is not only for the position of the divine son of the Yuan clan, but also for the comparison between the Chaos Body and the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo."
Yuan Zhexian smiled slightly and said, "How about this, cousin, I have two choices here, you can choose one."
Yuan Haoran asked, puzzled, "What choice?"
"Firstly, if you take my attack and are not injured, I will offer you the position of Divine Child with both hands, and the Chaos Body will henceforth be ranked below the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo."
"Secondly, I will take three of your moves while I remain in place. If I move even an inch, then what I just said still stands."
"Now, cousin, it's your choice," Yuan Zhexian said calmly.
Yuan Haoran and the other ancient oddballs were shocked upon hearing this, feeling that this current divine son of the Yuan clan was far too confident in himself. Yuan Haoran, in particular, felt that Yuan Zhexian underestimated him and was even more arrogant. They decided to teach this cousin a profound lesson.
He immediately showed a hint of anger and said, "Fine, since you put it that way, then you shall withstand three of my moves. If you do not move an inch in three moves, the younger generation of the Yuan Clan will respect you. If you cannot withstand them, then I will not say that I am bullying the younger generation. I will still be the Divine Son of the Yuan Clan in the future."
Yuan Zhexian replied calmly, "It doesn't matter, the final outcome is the same anyway."
"Don't speak too confidently. Are you ready? I'm about to make my move." Yuan Haoran couldn't wait to teach his arrogant cousin a lesson.
"Go ahead and make your move," Yuan Zhexian said calmly.
