"Father!" Lu Yuan cried out excitedly.
"The little tyke who was once so small has grown into an adult. You've laid a solid foundation." Lu Xiaotian nodded in approval. Looking at Lu Yuan and remembering the time he had left, Lu Xiaotian couldn't help but feel deeply moved.
Before he knew it, his son had grown so much. During the hundreds of thousands of years when his body had been scattered in pieces, it seemed he had missed out on a great deal.
Lu Xiaotian nodded to Xiang Qingcheng, Lu Wushuang, and the others. "I'm sorry for making you worry for so long. I'm back."
Tears streamed down Xiang Qingcheng and Lu Wushuang's faces, yet their smiles bloomed like flowers.
Then Lu Xiaotian reached out and beckoned. Lu Yuan's spatial ring trembled, and an arm flew out from within. The next moment, it joined with Lu Xiaotian.
During the brief moment it took to reunite, Lu Xiaotian's figure dispersed, revealing the headless body within. Only now, with his head still trapped inside the Dragon-Slaying Guillotine, could his body be considered whole again.
Dragon shadows coiled around him, and a mighty dragon's roar shook the air, proclaiming the majesty of a Heavenly Dragon powerhouse.
Honghao Heavenly Emperor's expression shifted. Compared to when his opponent had first arrived, his aura had risen again. Even with only this headless body, he already gave Honghao Heavenly Emperor an unfathomable feeling.
The limbs needed a little time to fuse and adjust into their optimal state, but Honghao Heavenly Emperor dared not make a move. His opponent was indeed adjusting, yet his aura continued to suppress Honghao Heavenly Emperor.
"Come on. Hundreds of thousands of years have passed. Let me see if you, this Heavenly Emperor, have made any progress." Lu Xiaotian didn't delay for long.
