1778 This is Just the Beginning

　　Miao Yang instinctively struggled to get up, but that heavy and terrifying pressure suppressed him tightly, making him unable to move.

　　Deep despair and fear surged in his heart.

　　The intense emotions surged in his chest, finally causing his chest to tremble. He then suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood!

　　Miao Zhen waved his sleeve, and a purple-gold stream of light set up a barrier in front of him.

　　Miao Yang’s blood splattered on it and quickly burned away.

　　“Don’t dirty my clothes.” Miao Zhen’s expression was indifferent, and his voice was cold.

　　Miao Yang felt even more indignant and humiliated. His lips trembled, but he didn’t say a word and spat out a few more mouthfuls of blood.

　　After all this, his face was as pale as a ghost, and he was on the verge of death.

　　Miao Zhen glanced at Miao Fushan and the elders standing beside him. “Since I’ve inherited the ancestor’s heirloom, I should naturally replace Miao Yang and become the clan leader. I wonder if any of the elders have an objection?”

　　After a short silence, Miao Fushan was the first to speak. “Since the ancestor has already made a decision, we will naturally comply.”

　　The other elders nodded in agreement. “We have no objections!”

　　This wasn’t showing their submission to Miao Zhen’s pressure but their sincerity.

　　In the past, they had misunderstood Miao Zhen. However, everything now in front of them was enough to prove Miao Zhen’s innocence.

　　Even if he didn’t obtain the ancestor’s heirloom, he was definitely qualified. All these years, nobody had really surpassed Miao Zhen. He was also the number one genius and expert in the clan.

　　It was only right for him to be the clan leader.

　　After a moment of silence, everyone kneeling in the square bowed and shouted, “Congratulations, Clan Leader!”

　　The shouts shook the sky and were magnificent!

　　Most of them looked rather excited. The initial shock and confusion had completely dissipated; all that was left was joy and excitement.

　　How could they not be happy?

　　Miao Yang was ruthless. Back then, he had used sinister methods to snatch the position of clan leader; it was simply the shame of the entire clan!

　　It was reasonable for him to be defeated now.

　　As for Miao Zhen, not only did he clarify the truth back then, but he was also a figure who had inherited the ancestor’s heirloom! It was naturally different for such a person to be the clan leader!

　　Even if his relationship with the legendary three-eyed eagle was a little special, it was nothing compared to the approval of the ancestor.

　　It was obvious why Miao Zhen could hide in the coiling dragon pillar for so many years. Wasn’t it all because of the ancestor’s favor?

　　There was no dispute about this at all!

　　…

　　When Miao Yang heard the almost boiling cheers and celebrations, his eyes rolled back as he fainted.

　　Miao Zhen pressed his hand down, and the voices in the square quickly quietened down.

　　Chu Liuyue was secretly shocked. That was all he said. Miao Zhen has just returned, but he has already received everyone’s support. He is indeed extraordinary.

　　She blinked at Rong Xiu. This time, we have really helped the right person.

　　Rong Xiu’s lips curled up slightly as he held her hand even tighter. This trip to Godly Dragon Island was indeed unexpected. Fortunately, it was a close call, and we benefited in the end. To be on good terms with Miao Zhen is definitely beneficial to us.

　　Not only would they be able to leave successfully this time, but they would also have contact with the great phoenix dragon clan in the future. With this relationship, it would undoubtedly be much more convenient to deal with many things in the future.

　　…

　　Miao Zhen said to an elder beside him, “Wake him up.”

　　The elder responded and quickly walked forward. He then grabbed Miao Yang’s collar and gave the latter two extremely loud slaps without saying a word.

　　Miao Yang’s face quickly turned red and swollen. At the same time, he was woken up by the pain.

　　He opened his eyes angrily and saw Miao Zhen and the elder who was about to slap him a third time. He immediately understood. I’m still here!

　　Instantly, his anger turned to panic and fear.

　　He instinctively shrank back, but unfortunately, his collar was clenched so tightly that he couldn’t move.

　　At this moment, he had lost his arms and was unable to resist.

　　Miao Zhen smiled, but in Miao Yang’s opinion, this smile was no different from that of a demon! “Miao Yang, I know you want to die a simple death, but how can there be so many satisfying deaths in this world?”

　　Miao Yang immediately had an ominous feeling, and he asked in a panic, “You! What do you want to do?!”

　　Miao Zhen raised his hand.

　　A purple-gold scale abruptly appeared in his palm. Immediately after, a dazzling light suddenly flew out from between his eyebrows and enveloped Miao Yang!

　　The elder immediately let go and took a few steps back.

　　Miao Yang’s body began to roll on the ground as if he were enduring immense pain. Soon, his figure began to change!

　　After a while, he actually returned to his true form!

　　Roar!

　　Miao Yang’s roar was filled with deep panic and fear.

　　Miao Zhen said indifferently, “Don’t worry. I won’t take your life directly. I just… want to seek justice for those seven clansmen!”

　　With that, the scale in his palm instantly flew out!

　　Chu! Chu! Chu!

　　An ear-piercing sound suddenly sounded!

　　Miao Yang’s body began to flip even more crazily! Soon, bloody scales fell to the ground.

　　Some scales still had flesh attached to them, making them look very bloody and terrifying.

　　Miao Zhen was going to skin him alive!

　　…

　　Such methods couldn’t be said to be ruthless, but thinking about what Miao Yang had done made people feel that this was what he deserved!

　　Such a person deserved to be cut into pieces, not to mention how much he had framed Miao Zhen.

　　This was even considered light punishment for him.

　　Miao Yang’s roars gradually subsided as if he no longer had the strength to churn. He was barely breathing.

　　It wasn’t until the last dragon scale on his body was scraped off that Miao Zhen said, “Send him to Seven Lotus Peak and give him the last of the medicine. Make sure he recovers as soon as possible.”

　　“Yes!”

　　Miao Yang was shocked. Could it be that Miao Zhen still plans to torture me like this repeatedly?!

　　As if to confirm his guess, Miao Zhen glanced at him and smiled without much humor. “Miao Yang, what’s the hurry? This is just the beginning.”
