The peaceful and unchanging life of the Five Dragons was completely shattered by an earth-shattering news. When the holy woman they admired fell from the altar and announced that she was going to retire and get married, it almost caused an uproar in the clan. Li Shiqi is the first saint to quit the saint by choosing to stay with a man, and I am afraid she will be the last saint to make this choice.

Although all the clansmen in the Five Dragons Clan were shocked by this news, no clansmen would hate Li Shiqi because of this, because according to the clan rules, this is the power and freedom of the Holy Maiden, and it is also a legitimate choice in the ancestral rules. So although there are many people talking about it, no one has come forward to accuse Li Shiqi.

The ritual of the transfer of power to the Holy Maiden is very simple, when the Holy Maiden returns the Holy Maiden's sword, which represents the supreme power of the Holy Maiden, to the Great Elder, and waits for the new Holy Maiden to be elected to replace her, there is no other formalities.

Fan Wei returned to the house under house arrest and told Yang Li all the conversations with the saint. Yang Li was surprised at first, but later gradually understood Li Shiqi's choice. After all, the canary has been kept in a birdcage for too long, either spending its life in the cage or flying out of the cage and soaring into the sky to be a free little bird. It is estimated that many canaries like Li Shiqi will choose to fly out and see the wonderful world......

After just making some preparations for a short time and packing up some clothes and dry food, Fan Wei and Yang Li exchanged money with Li Shiqi in the Holy Maiden's Palace behind the ancestral hall. Also appearing here were the Great Elder and his son, the strong man who wanted to marry Yang Li.

"The exit of the Five Dragons is located in the cave at the back of this palace, which is a very secret thing. I hope that when you go out, you will keep this secret from outsiders, and I don't want outsiders to interfere with our otherwise stable and peaceful life. The Great Elder said solemnly towards Fan Wei, Yang Li, and Li Shiqi, "The sky is high and the birds can fly, and the sea is wide and the fish jumps!" Shiqi, take care. ”

Li Shiqi is wearing a simple outfit today, probably for convenience, and even dressing up is very simple, just wearing a ponytail and no headdress on his head. However, her beautiful face was covered with a white veil again, and it seemed that she, like Yang Yuyan, didn't like to let others casually touch her appearance.

Facing her father's words of concern, Li Shiqi's beautiful eyes flashed with a hint of emotion, and she replied gently, "Shiqi failed to fulfill her filial piety, and she really can't live up to her father's nurturing grace." But Shiqi has made up her mind and will never regret it. Father, take care. ”

At this time, her brother Yili spoke a lot of his native language, and after Li Shiqi also replied a few words, both of them were faintly sad. At this time, Fan Wei said, "Great Elder, this phoenix jade will be given to you now, it is useless for me to take it." ”

Seeing that Fan Wei was about to take the phoenix jade hanging around his neck, the great elder suddenly smiled and said, "Don't worry, let's go into the cave first, and the phoenix jade still has an important role." ”

"Oh?" Fan Wei was stunned, but he still listened to the words of the Great Elder and retracted his arm. He and Yang Li glanced at each other, both showing surprise. Could it be that this phoenix jade will have some effect when they leave here?

Without waiting for the two of them to recover from the accident, the Great Elder led them towards the hidden cave behind the palace. Soon, the crowd came to the entrance of the underground cavern, located in the center of the back of the palace. The Great Elder was the first to enter the dark cavern, lighting the candles in the cave with torches one after another. Soon, the cave turned from dark to light.

Fan Wei looked at this spacious cave with a height of a person and a semi-arched circle, and soon found that this cave was not naturally formed, but artificially excavated! He couldn't help but really sigh, to dig such a cave leading to the height of the mountain, how much manpower and financial resources would be needed to do it! The Five Dragons are really a mysterious and surprising tribe.

Fan Wei soon found that from this section of the road, some ancient paintings and treasures were placed on the walls of the surrounding caves, apparently to embellish them. However, he still didn't understand, it was just a passage, and he needed to use treasures to make this passage beautiful and elegant? Could it be that this passage is a very sacred place for the Five Dragons?

Li Shiqi saw Fan Wei's face full of doubts at this time, and couldn't help but explain, "I know why you think it's strange, in fact, this cave is the most sacred place of our clan, because this is not only the only passage to the outside world, but also the place where the royal family's holy land is located. After walking out of the stone gate, there is a hall in front of it, and there are two roads inside, one leading to the outside world and the other to the royal holy land. ”

"Oh, I see." Only then did Fan Wei realize that this cave was not only a passage, but also the location of a sacred place, no wonder it was so grandly decorated.

After a long staircase, they finally came to a sealed stone wall in the depths of the cavern. This stone wall looked very heavy, Fan Wei stepped forward and pressed it lightly, feeling very hard. It seems that this stone wall is the door to block the contact between the outside world and the Five Dragons?

"Mr. Fan, now you can take out the phoenix jade. To open this stone door, this phoenix jade is the key. The Great Elder said with a solemn expression, "Beyond this stone gate is the starting point of the passage to the outside world. Only with the help of phoenix jade can this stone door be opened. By the way, this stone door can only be opened from the inside out, that is...... After you go out, unless someone inside opens this stone gate, you will never want to enter the territory of the Five Dragons. Oh sure, if you're willing to fall off the cliff again, I didn't say. ”

Fan Wei and Yang Li were afraid for a while when they heard the cliff, what are they kidding, it was lucky that they didn't fall to their deaths when they fell from such a high place, if it weren't for the fact that a few pine trees growing out of the cracks on the cliff were broken by them and reduced the buffer force, I'm afraid that the two of them would have fallen into the mud by now, how could they still stand here unharmed.

The meaning of the Great Elder has been made very clear, and walking out of this stone gate means that he will never be able to return to the Five Dragons Clan. It turns out that this phoenix jade is not only a token of the patriarch, but also the only key to open the passage with the outside world!

"No wonder Feng Yu is so important to the Five Dragons Clan, Great Elder, the patriarch who secretly fled left the Five Dragons Clan with Feng Yu, doesn't that mean that you have not had any contact with the outside world for more than ten years? Not even the tribes of the mountains have been? Only then did Fan Wei finally understand the true meaning of Fengyu, and at the same time understood why the people in the mountains had already regarded the Five Dragons Clan as a legendary nation.

"More than ten years...... Since the previous patriarch took office, there has been no contact with the outside world for decades. The Great Elder chuckled, "It's okay not to contact us, those ethnic minorities in the mountains worship us like gods, and we don't want to destroy this mystery." The Five Dragons are self-sufficient and do not need anything from the outside world to enter them. ”
