"I...I didn't see it wrong, did I..."
He rubbed his eyes in disbelief and turned to ask the adjutant beside him.
“Look at that person… isn’t he… isn’t he exactly like the statue of the god in our clan’s temple?”
The adjutant stared intently at Lin Ci, his Adam's apple bobbing, and the color draining from his face instantly.
"It seems... no, it's practically... exactly the same..."
The leading general swallowed hard, dismounted, and cautiously walked forward.
Upon seeing this, the Holy Lord's aura darkened, and he was about to step forward to stop him.
Lin Ci raised her hand to block him.
"Don't be afraid, let's see what they're up to."
The general stopped about a meter away from Lin Ci, his body trembling slightly with excitement and fear.
He tentatively spoke, in an almost humble tone.
"Hello... May I ask... what is your name... and where are you from...?"
Looking at his appearance, Lin Ci vaguely guessed what was going on, and her smile deepened.
"My name is Lin Ci, and I come from the first parallel universe."
First parallel universe!
These two keywords struck the general's mind like a thunderbolt.
He was absolutely certain.
He could no longer hold on, his knees buckled, and he knelt heavily before Lin Ci, his forehead pressed tightly against the cold ground.
Upon seeing this, his adjutant behind him knelt down without hesitation.
Following them were the first rank of soldiers, the second rank, the third rank...
Like waves of wheat swaying in the wind, hundreds and thousands of White Dragon Clan soldiers.
In just a few breaths, they all knelt down in Lin Ci's direction.
Their movements were perfectly synchronized, forming a white sea.
Then, led by their general, they shouted in unison, their voices shaking the universe and causing the stars of the entire underworld to tremble.
"Welcome home, White Dragon Clan deity!"
Tara's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.
He looked at the sea of white figures kneeling before him, then turned to look at his boss's nonchalant expression.
The processor in my brain completely burned out.
"Wait, what's going on, boss?"
"Go ahead and insist!"
"What deity?! What are you talking about?!"
A knowing glint flashed in the whale shark king's deep blue eyes.
After all, he had once served as a protector under the King of the Underworld alongside Long Fei, and had heard some of the secrets of the White Dragon Clan.
Seeing this scene, a long-forgotten legend quietly surfaced in his mind.
His pupils contracted almost imperceptibly.
"Boss, so you are the legendary deity of the White Dragon Clan."
Lin Ci raised an eyebrow.
"Oh? What brings you to that?"
The Whale Shark King bowed, his tone carrying a mixture of inquiry and awe.
“I once asked Long Fei why he led his people to willingly join the Underworld King’s army.”
"He said that a great god guided him here, and that the continuation of their entire White Dragon Clan was saved by that god."
The leading white dragon general also mustered his courage and raised his head, his eyes filled with undisguised fanaticism.
"Indeed! Our clan leader Long Fei said that without you, God, there would be no White Dragon Clan today!"
He roared with all his might, as if he wanted to pour out all the gratitude that had been accumulating for 100,000 years.
"Please come back to our tribe with us! I need to tell the chief this wonderful news right away!"
However, he had just finished speaking.
A hoarse voice, suppressed with extreme trembling and seemingly carrying the weight of countless ages, slowly rang out from behind Lin Ci.
"benefactor……"
"Is that you...?"
Chapter 74 Long Fei: Don't follow that old King of the Underworld, there's no future in it.
Upon hearing the sound, Lin Ci slowly turned around.
A middle-aged man wearing pure white dragon-patterned armor was standing not far away.
He was tall and straight with a resolute face.
But those deep eyes were now filled with unbelievable excitement, and even glistened with tears.
He walked step by step, his steps unsteady, as if each step was on clouds.
"Lin Ci's benefactor, is that you...?"
The man's voice became hoarse due to extreme emotional fluctuations, filled with uncertainty.
It seems they are afraid that everything before them is just an illusion.
A familiar, slight smile appeared on Lin Ci's lips.
"Long Fei, it's been a long time."
"Is this the grand welcome you're giving me?"
Upon receiving an affirmative answer, Long Fei's tense nerves completely relaxed.
He could no longer contain his excitement and almost ran to Lin Ci.
But then it suddenly stopped half a meter away, not daring to cross.
He didn't actually know that Lin Ci would be coming today.
Just now, I sensed an unprecedentedly powerful surge of strange energy suddenly descending upon my territory.
He was worried that his people wouldn't be able to handle it, so he came in person.
Who would have thought that this would be such a wonderful surprise?
He met the benefactor who had saved the entire White Dragon Clan and whom they revered as a god.
Long Fei waved his hands excitedly.
"No, no, no, my benefactor, you've misunderstood."
"If I had known you were coming today, the scale of this event would have been a hundred times larger than it is now!"
Lin Ci and Long Fei exchanged a few brief pleasantries.
Long Fei then led the way with utmost respect.
Leading Lin Ci and his group, they returned to their main city amidst the fervent worship and gazes of countless White Dragon Clan soldiers.
As soon as Lin Ci stepped into the central square of the city, his steps faltered slightly.
He looked up, somewhat taken aback.
In the very center of the square stood an enormous statue that seemed to pierce the sky.
The statue was made of neither gold nor jade, and under the dim starlight of the underworld, it shimmered with a warm luster.
His face was exactly the same as Lin Ci's.
Long Fei noticed Lin Ci's gaze, and an expression of immense pride and reverence immediately appeared on his face.
"In order for the White Dragon Clan to remember your kindness for generations to come, I ordered the construction of this statue."
"I must make sure that every descendant knows that without you, there would be no White Dragon Clan today."
Upon hearing this, Lin Ci nodded noncommittally.
Soon, Long Fei invited Lin Ci and the others into a magnificent hall.
As soon as they entered, Long Fei pushed Lin Ci directly onto the main seat at the top, which symbolized supreme power.
Looking at Lin Ci, who sat calmly in the main seat, Long Fei's eyes were filled with emotion and excitement.
But when his gaze swept over the four people standing behind Lin Ci...
Especially after lingering on the whale shark king for a while, I finally couldn't suppress my curiosity.
"My benefactor, how come the Whale Shark King is with you?"
Long Fei was of course aware of the news of Whale Shark King's death in battle; Lion King had already informed the entire army of this matter.
But he simply couldn't understand how this former overlord had been resurrected.
And it seems he has even become his benefactor's subordinate.
Before Lin Ci could speak, the Whale Shark King took a step forward, showing no embarrassment at being exposed.
He explained to Long Fei in a calm tone.
"I was outmatched, I lost, and I died."
"It was the boss who gave me a chance to be reborn and brought me back to life."
"So, I'm following the boss now."
These words were spoken frankly and openly, filled with the absolute admiration of the strong for the even stronger.
