The mountain gate towered majestically, imposing and grand.
The entire gate was built from enormous gray-green stones. Its pillars were so thick that eight or nine people would have to join hands to encircle one. A coiling dragon was carved into each pillar, so lifelike it seemed ready to move.
Yu Chen looked up and made a rough estimate. The gate stood at least two hundred meters tall.
"This is the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect."
Yu Tianheng stood beside him, his voice proud. "Yu Chen, what do you think? Not bad, right?"
As a direct descendant of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, he had passed through this gate countless times. Every time he stood before it, pride welled up in his heart.
Yu Chen nodded.
He gazed into the distance. Beyond the gate, a sprawling complex of buildings disappeared into the thin mist.
"The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect certainly deserves its place among the Upper Three Sects."
Yu Chen sighed in admiration.
"Yu Chen, let's go straight to the ancestral hall."
Yu Yuanzhen spoke.
A new lineage was joining them. Although it consisted of Yu Chen alone, it still represented the sect's continuity and inheritance.
Of the eight lineages that had scattered back then, five had now been found.
Perhaps one day, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect could reclaim its former glory and boast eight Titled Douluos once again.
Returning to one's ancestral roots was a major affair, not something settled with a few words.
A ceremony had to be held, and offerings made to the ancestors.
The sect master, the elders of every lineage, and even all direct descendants within the vicinity of Heaven Dou City had to return to attend.
But the first thing they needed to do was determine Yu Chen's generational seniority.
