A shout rang out, its voice drawing from far to near. It had seemed distant at first, yet in the blink of an eye, it was like a whisper in his ear!
Kunpeng was slightly startled, though only slightly. The surprise passed, and his expression swiftly returned to normal. He turned around, narrowing his eyes at the middle-aged Daoist who drifted in from outside the palace!
"Greetings, Patriarch!" The moment the middle-aged Daoist stepped into the great hall, Ao Guang's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly bowed!

To his surprise, this man was Ancestral Dragon's elder brother, First Dragon!
