122: Bai Tianxing: I gave birth to a wonderful daughter.
Just then, a slightly flustered figure flew in hurriedly from outside the hall.
The man in white robes was none other than Bai Qingxue's father, the Clan Chief of the White Tiger Royal Clan, Bai Tianxing.
He had just finished dealing with a minor matter within his clan when he heard news of a shocking change at the Primordial Divine Mountain and rushed over.
Upon entering the hall, he was met with a bizarre scene.
The blood Qi in the divine hall had not yet dissipated, and his daughter was being intimately held in the arms of a handsome young man.
Meanwhile, the Clan Chiefs and Elders of the various Royal Clans of the Primordial Divine Mountain, including the high and mighty Phoenix Ancestor, were all kneeling on the ground in humility, not daring to even breathe loudly.
"Qingxue? What... what is going on here?"
Bai Tianxing was completely stunned, his mind a blank slate.
He felt as if he had missed something monumental.
But no one had notified him.
Seeing her father, Bai Qingxue left Jiang Yuan's embrace and walked to Bai Tianxing's side, whispering, "Father, it's a long story..."
"What long story?"
Jiang Yuan smiled and stepped forward, patting Bai Tianxing on the shoulder. "Father-in-law, there is no need to panic. In a nutshell, from today on, you are the New Emperor of the Primordial Divine Mountain."
Emperor?
Bai Tianxing was dazed by this series of titles.
He stared blankly at Jiang Yuan, opened his mouth, and suddenly didn't know what to say.
A rare look of helplessness appeared on Bai Qingxue's cold, beautiful face as she was about to explain.
"Clan Chief Bai! You've finally arrived!"
A loud and sycophantic voice rang out first.
The Nine Nether Lion's nine massive heads crowded over, all nine mouths moving simultaneously.
In a tone of incomparable reverence and envy, it explained in surround sound: "Clan Chief Bai, you have given birth to a good daughter! I have seen since she was young that Imperial Sons Consort Qingxue had exceptional talent, and seeing it today, it is truly well-deserved. Of course, this is also thanks to our peerless, magnificent, and divinely mighty Jiang Family Imperial Son, whose Wisdom Eye recognized talent and helped Imperial Sons Consort Qingxue soar to the top, achieving second place on the prodigy list."
"Just when you were busy with clan affairs, that old mongrel of the Golden Lion Clan didn't know his place. Relying on the fact that he was a Royal Clan, he actually wanted to bully the Imperial Sons Consort! Now, he has been slapped to death on the spot by the Imperial Son and his Old Ancestor. The Imperial Son said to let us eat the meat later so it doesn't go to waste."
"Now, the Phoenix Ancient Ancestor has personally issued an order: the entire Primordial Divine Mountain shall respect your White Tiger Clan above all else. You are the New Emperor of this divine mountain!"
"Congratulations, Emperor Bai! Congratulations, Emperor Bai!"
Bai Tianxing's eyelids twitched wildly as he listened to the Nine Nether Lion's words; he was completely dumbfounded.
But he finally understood.
So, the person in front of him was the Jiang Family Imperial Son!
The man who had used emperor blood and a quasi-emperor weapon as a betrothal gift, the man who had driven the entire Primordial Divine Mountain crazy back then!
Images flashed through Bai Tianxing's mind: that crystal-clear jade bottle, the golden spear surging with Killing Intent, and the ten Void Rings that had changed the fate of his entire White Tiger Royal Clan.
So it was him!
An indescribable surge of excitement and awe instantly crushed all of Bai Tianxing's rationality.
He no longer remembered anything about being the Emperor of the divine mountain or the dignity of a Clan Chief. His legs went soft, and he immediately prepared to kneel before Jiang Yuan.
"Bai Tianxing of the White Tiger Royal Clan pays respects to the Imperial Son! The Imperial Son's great kindness, the White Tiger Clan..."
"Father-in-law, what are you doing?"
A hand gently supported his arm. The force was not great, but it made it impossible for him to kneel.
Jiang Yuan wore a gentle smile, as intimate as a neighbor's Junior: "We are all one family; there is no need for such grand rituals."
Supported by him, Bai Tianxing's aged face flushed red, and he was moved beyond measure.
One family!
The Imperial Son said we are one family!
These three words alone made him feel more secure and honored than any reward.
"Yes... yes, this old man... this old man has lost his composure."
Bai Tianxing was so excited he was incoherent, not knowing where to put his hands.
"Father-in-law, no need to be formal."
Jiang Yuan held Bai Qingxue and asked casually, "By the way, Qingxue previously sent back a Spirit Ascension Pill through the clan guards. I wonder how Father-in-law handled it?"
This was what Jiang Yuan had given additionally after the Spirit Ascension Pill freedom. After all, she was his main wife, and he still tried to keep things balanced.
Mentioning this, Bai Tianxing perked up and replied respectfully: "In response to the Imperial Son, this old man has already bestowed that Spirit Ascension Pill upon one of our clan's Juniors with the most outstanding Bloodline talent, Bai Xiaotian! He was originally a Dao Body, but after consuming it, he advanced to a God Body. I can summon him for the Imperial Son right now."
"No need, This Imperial Son was just asking."
A mere God Body, and a male at that; he immediately lost interest.
This indifferent reaction, in Bai Tianxing's eyes, made his heart skip a beat.
Could it be... that the Imperial Son was dissatisfied with him giving the Medicinal Pill to a male?
He was about to explain when he heard Jiang Yuan continue:
"It is just a Spirit Ascension Pill, no need to mind it. Now that the divine mountain is settled, the White Tiger Royal Clan also needs a true quasi-emperor to hold the fort. If there is any need, just ask."
"The Imperial Son can rest assured! This old man... this old man will certainly not fail your expectations!"
Bai Tianxing bowed deeply to Jiang Yuan.
He did not feel that he should be placed above the other party just because he was Jiang Yuan's 'Father-in-law'.
On the contrary, whether it was him, Qingxue, or the White Tiger Royal Clan... now it should be called the White Tiger Royal Clan... they were all dependent on this young man.
He could make the three great Royal Clans abdicate with one word and support the White Tiger Royal Clan...
Likewise, he could make the White Tiger Royal Clan disappear.
For the Jiang Family, this was just a matter of one sentence.
Therefore, the hierarchy must be clear.
The Primordial Divine Mountain respects the Royal Clans, and the White Tiger Royal Clan... respects the Jiang Family!
This was also the realization that a Clan Chief should have.
Jiang Yuan smiled and nodded, helping him up.
Subsequently, his gaze swept over the representatives of the various clans who were still prostrate on the ground. His voice returned to calmness, but it carried an unquestionable Divine Might.
"Today's matters end here."
"Three days later, the divine mountain will hold the New Emperor's coronation ceremony. By then, I hope to see a united Primordial Divine Mountain."
As his words fell, the hall fell into dead silence.
A moment later, a thunderous response rang out.
"We... follow the Imperial Decree of the Imperial Son!"
The voices converged into a torrent, echoing in the Wutong Divine Hall for a long time.
Looking at this scene of the ten thousand clans submitting, Bai Tianxing stood behind Jiang Yuan, feeling his blood boil, and tears welled up in his old eyes again.
The vision of making the White Tiger Royal Clan regain the supreme glory of the mythological era had actually been realized in this strange atmosphere.
The reason was simply because he had given birth to a good daughter!
