Chapter 0355: Everything Disappeared

91% Dragon Bloodline—this was quite high for the Runing Family, but it still didn’t make Kennedy and the others lose their composure. However, when the Yellow Dragon revealed its “secrets,” its eight divine avatars, Kennedy finally lost his temper!
A Supreme God at the peak of perfection losing his temper!
How many eras had passed since Kennedy last lost his composure?
With Kennedy out of control, Donald and Barret, who stood by him, were even more flustered; their old faces were filled with excitement, leaving them speechless.
On the square, all the members of the Runing Family were also “scared” by Kennedy’s sudden change and stood frozen, not daring to move.
Only after seeing the family guards seal off the area did Kennedy finally seem relieved. He turned to look at the Yellow Dragon, his eyes glowing green.
That look in Kennedy’s eyes… how should it be described? A wolf encountering a little white rabbit?
The Yellow Dragon felt annoyed. Just eight avatars—there was no need for such an overreaction. He merely wanted to reveal a small part of his “secrets” to boost his status, making it easier for him to move around in the Runing Family, simplifying the requirements to enter the Ancestral Dragon Pool, and even making Susan reevaluate him.
Of course, whether Susan would reevaluate him or not wasn’t important to the Yellow Dragon. What mattered most was the Runing Family’s attitude toward him.
The Runing Family was the foremost family in the Netherworld. Such a “big piece of meat,” the Yellow Dragon naturally wanted to use it to enhance his strength as much as possible.
“Huang Hai,” Kennedy stared at the Yellow Dragon for a long time before suddenly breaking into a strange, smiling face.
By then, the Yellow Dragon had already retracted its eight avatars and replied, “Yes, Patriarch.”
“Good, good!” Kennedy smiled. “Excellent!”
He only said “good,” but what exactly he meant left the other members anxious. Still, they could tell from Kennedy’s expression that the Patriarch was extremely pleased.
“Well, um…” Kennedy started, seemingly unsure what to say. Then he turned to the steward responsible for tallying points, who had been standing there stunned by the events. “Hurry up and calculate the points!” he ordered.
The steward, already dazed by everything that had happened, trembled at Kennedy’s command. He quickly replied respectfully and began nervously tallying the points for the pile of Beast Crystal before the Yellow Dragon.
“568,000 points!”
As the steward’s result echoed across the square, the members of the family looked at the Yellow Dragon with envy, jealousy, shock, disbelief, and even a hint of awe.

Previously, the top-ranked Harris had 567,510 points! Now, he would drop to second place, while the one who rose to the top was actually Huang Hai, who was once mocked as being last— a mid-tier god! Yet this time, no one dared to question it. Elder Bishop opened his mouth but said nothing. Fei De’s face turned alternately blue and red; this time, he dropped from third to fourth place! But the thought of Huang Long’s eight divine avatars “revealed” just now filled him with fear. The more divine avatars a god-like powerhouse had, the more debated it was in the divine realm as to what it meant. Talent was undeniable— without extraordinary talent, it was impossible to cultivate so many divine avatars. Although there were connections between the laws of different elements, this very fact made them easier to confuse and harder to fully understand. For example, with water or fire as the two major elements, if a person’s main body belonged to the water element, it would be particularly difficult to cultivate a fire-elemental divine avatar. “Could it be that Huang Hai’s talent is even higher than Clan Leader Kennedy’s?!” Fei De couldn’t believe it. The more he thought about it, the more confused he became. “Hehe, Huang Hai,” Kennedy said with a smile as the other disciples were filled with mixed emotions. “Yes, Clan Leader,” Huang Long replied. “The results of this trial are out. You came in first. According to the clan’s rules, you’ll be able to train in the Tianlong Space for a year, receive 200 Dragon King Jade Crystals, and 1 trillion Divine Stones!” Kennedy listed the generous rewards with a smile, then added approvingly, “Due to your outstanding performance, you may ask for one more reward from me.” What? Ask for another reward?! The faces of the other disciples changed. Since the clan leader hadn’t set any limits, did that mean Huang Hai could ask for whatever reward he wanted—as long as it was within Kennedy’s power? Bishop opened his mouth to speak, “Clan Leader!” Kennedy raised his hand. “No need to say more.” Bishop could only nod helplessly and hold back.

Huang Long was also a bit surprised—Kennedy wanted to propose a reward on his own? The first thing that came to his mind was entering the Ancestral Dragon Pool. After all, he had come to the Luning family precisely for that purpose. But then he shook his head. Although Kennedy was the clan leader, the conditions for entering the Ancestral Dragon Pool were traditions passed down by the Luning family. Only those who passed the evaluations by the elders’ council could enter. It would likely be difficult for Kennedy to grant him special permission to enter without going through these tests. Moreover, Huang Long didn’t want to bring this up now, as it would draw too much attention. If he did, wouldn’t it reveal his intentions regarding the Ancestral Dragon Pool to others?

As for other rewards, Huang Long couldn’t think of anything at the moment and could only say, “Well, I’ll return to the clan leader and let him know that I haven’t thought of any reward yet.”

“Good. Then think about it and come back to me when you have an idea,” Kennedy said with a smile.

Huang Long should offer a thank-you gift.

Next, before the trials ended, Kennedy gave some words of encouragement to the disciples and awarded rewards to the top ten disciples, including Huang Long, on the spot.

However, as he dismissed the disciples, Kennedy once again became solemn and issued a strict order: “No one may reveal anything related to these trials. Those who violate this rule will be expelled from the Luning family!”

Being expelled from the family was a very severe punishment for the descendants of the major families in the Divine Realm—equivalent to treason!

This made all the disciples present shudder, and they quickly gave up any such thoughts.

Huang Long also left with the others, exiting the square and returning to his own residence.

Kennedy watched Huang Long’s retreating figure among the disciples for a long time without taking his eyes off him. In fact, ever since Huang Long revealed his eight divine avatars, that legend had been echoing in his mind. Perhaps before, he couldn’t be sure if this Huang Hai was the person in the legend, but now, he could be certain!

“It seems I’ll need to visit the Main God’s Space again in a few days to report this to the Main God!” Kennedy thought, his emotions surging.

“Clan leader!” Donald, who was standing nearby, spoke up as he saw Kennedy still staring in the direction where Huang Long had gone.

Kennedy finally snapped out of his thoughts and looked at Bishop, Barret, and Donald with a serious expression. “You must understand how important today’s event is. Huang Hai possesses eight divine avatars—this must not be revealed under any circumstances!”

“Yes, Clan Leader!” Bishop and the others replied respectfully.

They naturally understood the severity of this matter.

Kennedy turned around and suddenly laughed, “Hehe, our Runing family has actually produced a descendant with eight divine avatars! What an honor—no, no, blessings from the Supreme God!”
What does this have to do with blessings from the ancestors, no, from the Supreme God? Donald and the others smiled bitterly inwardly, but they understood Clan Leader Kennedy’s feelings.
Because they felt the same way.
“This trial is the greatest achievement for our Runing family!” Kennedy said with satisfaction, then added, “Elder Donald.”
“Yes, Clan Leader,” Donald replied.
“The trial is over. Have you had anyone count the number of primal beasts on the trial island yet?” Kennedy asked.
After each trial, the Runing family would have people check how many primal beasts remained on the island and compare it with the number hunted by their descendants.
“We’ve already sent people to count them. The results should arrive soon,” Donald replied respectfully.
“But it’s strange—why are the numbers of primal beasts hunted by Fedd, Harris, Spindu, and the other descendants so low?! And why couldn’t any of the ten mutated primal beasts of the higher gods be captured?” Barrett asked, puzzled.
Kennedy and the others nodded, also confused.
They had expected that at least five of the ten mutated primal beasts of the higher gods would be captured by the descendants this time.
“Could it be that Fedd, Harris, and the others didn’t encounter those ten mutated primal beasts?” Donald frowned. Suddenly, his waist trembled, and he took out the jade stone. Smiling at Kennedy, he said, “The results of the count on the trial island are in!” With that, he sent his divine sense to glance at the results. But as soon as he did, his smile froze, replaced by an expression of disbelief.
Seeing Donald’s reaction, Kennedy and the others grew curious. Bishop asked, “Elder Donald, are the results of the count on the trial island ready?”
Donald raised his head, stared stiffly at Bishop and the others, then nodded blankly.
“What’s the result? Are there a few hundred or a few thousand fewer?” Kennedy asked with a smile.
Bishop and Barrett also looked at Donald. A few hundred or a few thousand fewer would be normal; such things had happened frequently in the past.
“No, it’s not a few hundred or a few thousand fewer!” Donald said dumbly.
“Not fewer?” Kennedy looked at him.

“No, Clan Leader, everything on the Trial Island is gone. All those primal beasts have disappeared—not a single one left!” Donald replied in a trembling voice.
Kennedy and the other two had initially not paid much attention, but they suddenly froze, shouting in shock, “What? All of them gone? Not a single one?!” After that, Kennedy snatched the jade from Donald’s hands, scanned it with his mental sense, his eyes going blank, before passing the jade to Bishop and Barret.
“All of them gone! Sixty million primal beasts, including those ten evolved primal beasts of the higher gods?!” Bishop scanned it with his mental sense before muttering in shock.
