"Let him in!"
When such a voice rang out, both Bai Hua Fairy and the Eight Guardian Generals were stunned.
They all turned their gazes to Xing Jue, their gazes mixed with some surprise. At this moment, they realized that Xing Jue's previous scolding seemed to have a hidden meaning.
"Hey! Sha Dan, be careful. If he dares to harm you, just shout. Xue Mei and I will go in and save you! " Bao Er giggled and patted Xing Jue's shoulder, but there was a hint of worry in her words.
Xing Jue grinned and smiled brightly, gesturing to Xue Mei and Bao Er not to worry, then directly pushed open the heavy golden dragon door.
After the door opened, there was only darkness in front of him. When the door closed, it was even darker, like ink, and nothing could be seen.
However, Xing Jue was not afraid. He immediately sensed that this was a special gas. He walked straight forward, and although he couldn't see anything, his steps were calm.
Sure enough, after Xing Jue walked only a dozen steps, his eyes were filled with light, and he was suddenly enlightened.
This was an exquisite hall. The white stone walls were engraved with various figures and magical beasts, some fighting, some wandering.
One of the figures did not change. The only changes were the enemies and the background. The carvings on the wall were vivid and lifelike, as if it was a thrilling story.
Such a mural reminded Xing Jue of Yufeng Pavilion. He had seen similar murals in Yufeng Pavilion before, and they all recorded the story of the same person, the man in front of him, Song Yufeng.
Song Yufeng, dressed in blue, stood with his hands clasped behind his back. His appearance was similar to the portrait in Yufeng Pavilion, but there was a big difference.
Song Yufeng was young and handsome, exuding an air of arrogance. But the Song Yufeng in front of him was middle-aged, exuding an air of calmness.
Song Yufeng's eyes were as sharp as an eagle's. He was sizing up Xing Jue, as if he was looking for something. After a long time, he said lightly:
"You know about the Heaven Refining Rogue Dragon?"
"Not only do I know him, I'm very familiar with him."
"How is he doing now?"
"Okay? I've been sealed for thousands of years. If it were you, would you feel good? "Xing Jue chuckled. Since he had already come this far, he didn't want to hide it anymore.
"Heh ~ ~ ~"
Song Yufeng smiled faintly. His smile was very light, and the corners of his mouth were only slightly curved. There was not much emotional change on his face, so Xing Jue could not see through what he was thinking.
The feeling that this Song Yufeng gave Xing Jue wasn't much different from Bai Hua Fairy. He couldn't see through him at all. If Xing Jue's soul hadn't reached Emperor rank, he probably wouldn't even be able to see through his strength.
Both of them had lived for a thousand years, but the supreme elder of Hermit Peak, Jiang Yunhe, had never given Xing Jue such an unfathomable feeling. It could be seen that the aptitude between people was truly incomparable.
"Are you a disciple of Yufeng Pavilion?" Song Yufeng asked.
"How do you know?" Xing Jue couldn't help but be surprised.
"It's very simple. If you aren't a disciple of Yufeng Pavilion, you won't be able to enter the Heaven Test Area. If you don't enter the Heaven Test Area, you won't be able to get the necklace I left behind."
"If you can't get my necklace, how can you find the place where I sealed the Heaven Refining Rogue Dragon?"
"Moreover, if my guess is correct, you were the one who saved the Heaven Refining Rogue Dragon. Otherwise, you wouldn't know so much about it. With its personality, it wouldn't have mentioned too much to outsiders."
Song Yufeng was full of confidence. Although he spoke in a guessing tone, it was obvious that he didn't doubt his judgment at all.
And at this moment, Xing Jue couldn't help but admire Song Yufeng's ability. Although what he said was reasonable and not difficult to guess, Song Yufeng was full of confidence.
It could be said that he was meticulous and not simple to guess all this in such a short period of time.
It could be said that he was meticulous. "Yes, what you said is correct." Xing Jue shrugged his shoulders.
"Yes, as the founder of Yufeng Pavilion, I am also very proud to have a disciple like you."
"However, are you here today to join forces with me to deal with Mount Wuzhi? Or do you want to seek justice for Xiaolong? "
Song Yufeng's sharp eyes were still calm. It was as if he was talking to an old friend, but it was also as if he was talking to someone who had nothing to do with him.
"Seek justice? If I, Xing Jue, had the strength to seek justice from you, why would I join forces with you? "
Xing Jue smiled slightly. In fact, it was indeed as he said. If he had the strength to defeat Song Yufeng, he wouldn't have humbly come here to ask for an alliance.
"If you want to join forces with my Dragon Sect to fight against Mount Wuzhi, there is no need to say anything more." Song Yufeng waved his hand and turned around, signaling Xing Jue to leave.
"I, Xing Jue, am not stupid enough to come to you again after Bai Hua Fairy, a person who has been friends with you for a thousand years, was rejected." Xing Jue didn't leave. His expression didn't change, and he still had a faint smile on his face.
"Then why did you come to see me?" Song Yufeng turned around again and looked at Xing Jue.
"I just want to ask you, Sky-Refining Rogue Dragon is loyal to you, why did you treat him like that? What is your purpose? "
"Purpose? For my own selfish desires, I just want to have a more powerful spiritual weapon. "Song Yufeng's answer was very straightforward, almost without any hesitation.
"Is that true?" Xing Jue didn't believe it.
"Then what do you think?" Song Yufeng asked.
"I just want to know the truth!"
Xing Jue looked at Song Yufeng solemnly. At first, he also thought that Song Yufeng was doing this for his own selfish desires, but when he saw Song Yufeng, he felt that this person was too unfathomable and meticulous.
Back then, when he entered the Sacred Region, he must have made complete preparations before he entered. Since the Sacred Region was a brand new world,
Since the Sacred Region was a whole new world, with his meticulous mind, he wouldn't have thought that everything here would be a new starting point. He wouldn't have thought that a spiritual weapon might be of little use here.
Especially when he answered Xing Jue that he treated Xiaolong for his own selfish desires, Xing Jue felt that it wasn't the truth.
Because if it was really for his own selfish desires, he wouldn't have answered so readily. Instead, he would have found an excuse to cover it up.
"Oh, would you believe me if I said it? Even it doesn't believe me. "
Song Yufeng finally spoke. This time, there was a slight change in his expression. Although it was fleeting, Xing Jue still noticed it.
"If I didn't believe it, I wouldn't have asked."
"Then why are you so curious about this? If you were entrusted by the Heaven Refining Rogue Dragon, you should believe its words. "
"I just believe in Xiaolong's choice. I believe that the master it chose back then is not such an unbearable person."
"Oh, Xing Jue? It seems that you're not simple. No wonder you've done so many shocking things in just a few years after coming to the Soul Source World. " Song Yufeng's gaze changed. He finally began to look at Xing Jue in a different light. Then, he said helplessly:
"Back then, Heaven Refining knew that I was about to break through to Battle Sage and wanted me to break through with me. However, the Holy Stones I found were limited and only enough for me."
"But I reckon that the Holy Stones will come from the Sacred Region. As long as we reach the Sacred Region, there must be a way to obtain the Holy Stones. If Heaven Refining Rogue can enter the Sacred Region with me, there must be a way for it to become a Battle Sage."
"But everyone knows that those who aren't Battle Sages can't enter the Sacred Region. I was forced to come up with this idea. I temporarily sealed Heaven Refining Rogue as a spiritual weapon."
"In this way, as long as the Spiritual Artifact is not destroyed, it will be able to exist forever. The Sacred Region is full of unknowns, full of temptations."
"Since there's a sealing technique in this world, there must be a sealing technique as well. I believe that as long as I enter the Sanctuary, I'll be able to turn Heaven Refining back to its original form one day."
"At first, Lian Tian agreed with this idea, but just because of a casual remark from me, it became suspicious and couldn't get rid of it." At this point, the helplessness on Song Yufeng's face deepened.
"What is it?" Xing Jue asked.
"I told it that with its strength, as long as the seal is successful, it will definitely be able to create a superior-grade spirit weapon. Even if I enter the Sanctuary, I will be stronger than others!"
"But it's precisely this sentence that makes it think that I'm deceiving it, that I'm only making use of it to obtain a superior-grade Spirit Artifact so that I can secure my position after I enter the Saint Region!"
"I don't need to tell you what happened next. The Heaven Refining Rogue Dragon wanted to leave and declared that he would kill all the humans of the Martial Heaven Continent. He wanted the Magical Beasts to rule the continent."
"At that time, it was very irrational. I knew that if it said something, it would definitely do it. Left with no choice, I could only seal it."
"However, I knew that from that day onwards, it would definitely hate me. It would think that its guess was right and that I was just using it."
"I know it too well. Although it has an extraordinary bloodline, it is still a Magical Beast. Magical Beasts have a trace of distrust towards humans."
"It's this distrust that caused it to never understand. If I was really a heartless person, why would I seal it instead of killing it when my plan failed?"
Song Yufeng let out a long sigh. There was a trace of bitterness in his helpless emotions. It was this bitterness that made Xing Jue realize that he still had deep feelings for the dragon.
"Actually, it's not just the dragon that has a trace of distrust towards you. You also have a trace of distrust towards it, right?"
"If not, why didn't you try to persuade it? With your relationship, if you had patiently persuaded it, it would have understood your intentions. "
"It's just that you were worried that the dragon would go back on its word and join the Beast City after you left the continent. That's why you sealed it and weakened its power," Xing Jue said with a smile.
After hearing Xing Jue's words, Song Yufeng looked at Xing Jue with a hint of surprise. Then, he nodded. "You're right. In the end, I still owe Heaven Refining."
"If you insist on refusing to join hands with us, you will not only owe Heaven Refining, but also the entire Dragon Sect."
"I believe that you can see through Kunlun's ambition. Sooner or later, they will make a move against the Dragon Sect. If we lose, they will make a move against the Dragon Sect to eliminate future troubles!" Xing Jue said solemnly.
He didn't want to miss this opportunity. After learning the truth about the dragon being sealed, he naturally had to persuade Song Yufeng.
As for mentioning the past, it was only to ease Song Yufeng's emotions. He knew that if he brought up this matter directly, Song Yufeng would definitely drive him away without hesitation.
