"I heard that you were the one who closed the Omniscient Door? You even moved the Spiritual Mountain away? "Old Man Mo Xin asked in a deep voice.
Xia Fei knitted his brows and simply said, "It was indeed me."
"Aren't you going to explain it to us?" Sima asked after being stunned for a moment. Xia Fei admitted that he had closed the door and didn't say anything else, which made Sima feel a little suffocated. It was as if there was something in his chest that he couldn't get out.
Shaking his head, Xia Fei said, "According to the situation back then, closing the door was the only decision I could make. The entire Omniscient Door had already deteriorated and had no value in continuing to exist. If I forcefully maintained it, I would only become a joke to the entire world, so I might as well just close it.
"Besides, Old Master Fuchen made me the sect master, so it's up to me to decide what to do. I don't need to explain it to anyone. Of course, I will bear the consequences myself. It has nothing to do with Old Master Fuchen."
Sima and Mo Xin let out a long breath after hearing that. They looked at each other as if they were shocked by Xia Fei's explanation.
Not far away, Chu Jingfeng's disciple, Xu Luanbu, was slightly stunned. He secretly gave Xia Fei a thumbs up as if he was impressed by how unreasonable Xia Fei's explanation was.
Helplessly looking at the sky, Sima said, "What a joke to the entire world. Is it not a joke to close the oldest Omniscient Door in the universe?"
Xia Fei said in a deep voice, "If you don't believe me, you can ask around. Who in Alpha dares to say that Omniscient Door is a joke?! They didn't hesitate to close the door and kill all the disciples to clean up the sect!
"The world will only remember the pride of Omniscient Door. It's a sect that will do anything for its principles!"
Sima and Mo Xin were stunned again. They pondered and didn't answer Xia Fei.
The situation back then was already very clear. Fuchen's disciples had already roped in the Spiritual Master Union and other forces to seize power!
Xia Fei had directly closed the Omniscient Door so that they wouldn't be able to seize it!
It might be helpless, but it was also the most effective method! Otherwise, if Fuchen's useless disciples took control of Omniscient Door, they would have to follow behind the Dark Spiritualists like dogs. If that was the case, Omniscient Door would truly be too ashamed to face the founder.
Understanding this, Mo Xin and Sima Jun sighed. They just felt that it was a pity that the sect that had stood there for tens of thousands of years was gone just like that.
However, no one could deny that it was Xia Fei, an outsider, who had used unconventional and ruthless methods to protect the patriarch's last bit of dignity.
It was a pity that Oblivion was not allowed to set up sects. Otherwise, Sima and Mo Xin would have returned to Alpha long ago to clean up the mess.
When it came to sects, Annihilation did not have such a thing. Perhaps Annihilation's overseers were afraid that these sects would grow too powerful and threaten their rule. Hence, they had done so. The various Sects and Guilds that had come to Annihilation were all members of Annihilation.
Of course. Clans still existed. After all, blood ties were solid, unlike those sects. The union could be shut down.
When Sima and Mo Xin came to Annihilation, it meant that they had left the Psychic Door and were independent individuals. Now that they had retired from their department, they were idle personnel living in Annihilation.
Though they did not blame Xia Fei, there was still a bit of a grudge between them. Sima and Mo Xin's attitude toward Xia Fei was neither cold nor indifferent. As for trust … None at all. It was just that they were all Clerics and came from the Psychic branch, so they had to be familiar with each other.
Xia Fei did not care about this. He had come here mainly because he missed Fuchen. After chatting with the two martial granduncles for a while, Xia Fei and Fuchen moved to the side courtyard and continued chatting. Xu Luanbu followed them.
"Come, let me introduce you. This is my great benefactor, Xu Luanbu, Master Xu, "Fuchen said. Though Xu Luanbu looked much younger than Fuchen, Fuchen was still very respectful toward him.
Xia Fei smiled. "I've long heard of the great name Xu Luanbu. I recognize your master."
Fuchen was startled and exclaimed, "You've met Master Chu?!"
Xia Fei nodded. Fuchen sighed. "I never expected this. I really never expected this. I've always wanted to meet such a powerful figure, yet I wasn't able to, yet you beat me to it. How is Master Chu doing?"
Xia Fei replied, "He's fine. He's probably off to some mysterious place to conduct his research. I spoke to him two days ago and asked him where he was, but he wouldn't tell me no matter what, so he must be somewhere very dangerous."
Fuchen was shocked!
From Xia Fei's tone, it seemed like he had a good relationship with Chu Jingfeng, as if they were friends. How was that possible?!
Xia Fei knew Chu Jingfeng from the Old Dragon King's place. The two of them were equals and did not feel anything different.
However, many people in Annihilation worshipped Chu Jingfeng and treated him as the number one person in the world. Fuchen was one of them.
At this moment, Xu Luanbu said, "That master of mine is always messing around. I reckon that some powerful weapon is about to be born, so he went to someone's house early in the morning and recorded the moment the weapon came out."
Xia Fei joked, "You said that your master is messing around, but your master said that you're not doing your job properly. You don't even know how to help him. Taking you in as a disciple is like taking in an ingrate."
Xu Luanbu was slightly angry. "Did the old man really say that?"
"Of course. Also, the Snake Swallows Whale you gave me wasn't the complete version. I almost died because of it. How are we going to settle this?" Xia Fei glared at Xu Luanbu.
"Not the complete version?" Xu Luanbu scratched his head and waved his hand. "This has nothing to do with me. It's all that old man's fault. He said how powerful it was when he gave me the Snake Swallows Whale, but he didn't say that it wasn't the complete version."
Xu Luanbu and Xia Fei hit it off very well. They had a good chat the first time they met.
To be honest, Xia Fei and Xu Luanbu were quite similar. They both had impudent personalities and spoke casually. Furthermore, both of them were very smart. They started a war of words and competed in eloquence.
Fuchen suddenly felt that he was getting old. He could not keep up with Xu Luanbu and Xia Fei's pace at all.
However, Fuchen was sincerely happy for Xia Fei. To be able to form a relationship with Chu Jingfeng and his disciple, Xia Fei would not be alone even if he was annihilated.
Chu Jingfeng was able to compile the Thousand Soul Ranking, so the trump cards he had were immeasurable. It was definitely a great thing for Xia Fei to be on good terms with this pair of master and disciple.
"You're being unreasonable!" Xu Luanbu was getting a little anxious. He realized that Xia Fei was very good at talking nonsense, and he was not his match.
"You don't even know if it's the complete version, so how can you be his disciple? Is your head filled with paste? That's why you have to take responsibility for this matter. Cut the crap. Because it wasn't the complete version of the Snake Swallows Whale, I suffered a lot. You have to compensate me. "Xia Fei extended his hand and said.
Xu Luanbu was very indignant. Chu Jingfeng did not blame him for this matter, yet Xia Fei had bitten him and would not let go no matter what.
Xu Luanbu said that he did not know if the Snake Swallows Whale was the complete version, yet Xia Fei asked him why he did not know if it was the complete version as Chu Jingfeng's disciple, leaving Xu Luanbu speechless.
"Tell me. How do I compensate you?" Xu Luanbu was annoyed.
Xia Fei smiled. "You don't have to compensate me. Just promise to do three things for me. You can't disobey me."
"I'm not going to kill that old man," Xu Luanbu said.
Xia Fei said, "Why would I? At most, you'll help me run some errands when I'm busy and take care of my family when I'm in trouble … I'll be leaving. Take care." Xia Fei patted Fuchen's shoulder and said in a deep voice.
Fuchen was different from Xia Fei. Xia Fei entered Oblivion as a Dragonrider and had his own designation, while Fuchen was promoted naturally and was considered a Cleric on standby in Oblivion.
There were many high-level warriors in the core of the universe. Fuchen needed to wait for the recruitment from the major departments and apply like he was looking for a job before he could be accepted by the mainstream of Oblivion. Otherwise, he could only be a free warrior like Chu Jingfeng and his disciple.
"Don't forget our agreement." Xia Fei waved his hand at Xu Luanbu.
Xu Luanbu nodded and whispered in Xia Fei's ear, "Don't worry. The people of the Garden of Gods always keep their word. If there's a chance, ask that old man to bring you to the garden. That old man has some good stuff."
Xia Fei was stunned. "Wasn't the Garden of Gods destroyed a long time ago?"
Xu Luanbu said disapprovingly, "The demon race was destroyed, but isn't your Heaven's Wings still alive and kicking?"
After a pause, Xu Luanbu added, "Some things can be justified in a different way. Like you, a member of Dark Soul, the last Evil Shadow Dragonrider of Oblivion. Who would have thought that you're a descendant of the demon race? That old man actually pushed the matter of the snake swallowing the whale to me. I must make him bleed. "
Xia Fei nodded. This pair of master and disciple from the Garden of Gods was really interesting.
It was the will of the heavens. Xia Fei, a descendant of the demon race, and Chu Jingfeng, a master and disciple from the Garden of Gods, felt like old friends the moment they met.
…
The 29th branch of the Dark Division of Annihilation, codenamed Dark Soul.
Xia Fei received a summon from Xiu Zetian when he returned to the headquarters. He went to Xiu Zetian's office and saw the latter looking at a person's information on the screen.
Evidently, this was a Blueblood warrior, but he was very different from the other Bluebloods. The Bluebloods were generally short, but this person was over two meters tall and weighed more than three hundred kilograms. He had a fierce appearance, and his body was covered in blue muscles. He was as strong as an ox.
Xiu Zetian pointed at the person on the screen with his chin and said, "Didn't you want to know the whereabouts of the other two nature-type divine armaments? This person is called Yuman. According to my information, he has a strange fire. He might be the person you're looking for."
"Brilliant Five Flames?!" Xia Fei was stunned. The Wolf Butcher Flame, the Empty Valley Flame, the Sunsplitting Flame, the Sorrowful Flame, and the Sonic Flame — these five fire-type divine armaments combined to form Brilliant was actually in the hands of a Blueblood warrior!
Xia Fei now had the water-type Startling Origin, the earth-type Southstar, and the wood-type Cloud Sea. If he could take down the fire-type Brilliant, he would have four divine armaments in his hands! All that was missing was the metal-type Horizontal Breaker!
Xia Fei calmly asked, "I want to know where Yuman is and take a few days off while I'm at it."
Xiu Zetian frowned. "In a few days, it'll be the day when this batch of trainee dragonriders becomes official. You'll see him then."
