As soon as Bai Xiaowen said this, many people secretly nodded.
If there really was a secret to becoming stronger, and Xia Feng wanted to take it for himself, he would definitely turn the Xiao Gu territory into a part of the Great Xia territory.
Xiao Xing's expression was dark. No one knew whether he believed Xia Feng's denial or Bai Xiaowen's analysis.
Looking at him, he probably believed that there was no secret to becoming stronger in the forbidden land.
Guo Baisheng said, "Lord Xia Feng, Xiao Xing has committed a grave crime this time. How should we punish him?"
The evolvers of the Great Xia territory didn't say anything. Instead, they looked at Xia Feng.
This meant that they all respected Xia Feng, but it couldn't be denied that they all hated Xiao Xing to the bone. The higher Xia Feng's prestige was, the deeper their hatred for Xiao Xing was.
Xia Feng said calmly, "Xiao Xing, hand over the Xiao Gu territory's boundary stele … and leave. I don't want to see you again. "
When this sentence was said, many evolvers of the Great Xia territory revealed looks of dissatisfaction.
In their eyes, Xiao Xing had betrayed the Great Xia territory and harmed Xia Feng. He had almost destroyed the entire Great Xia territory. Even a thousand cuts would be a light punishment.
Although Xia Feng had taken back Xiao Xing's authority, he had let him go so easily. How could they accept this?
Immediately, many people spoke up and asked Xia Feng to punish Xiao Xing severely.
Xia Feng looked around. His gaze seemed to have materialized, and everyone's voices instantly quieted down.
"This is my decision," Xia Feng said simply.
Guo Baisheng's expression was complicated. In the end, he nodded and said, "Yes, we respect Lord Xia Feng's decision …"
Guo Baisheng's prestige in the Great Xia territory was very high. He was probably second only to Xia Feng in terms of importance. His attitude made the others lose the courage to continue arguing. However, there were still quite a few people who cast disdainful or resentful gazes at Xiao Xing.
Bai Xiaowen sighed in his heart. Just from this matter alone, Xia Feng wasn't a qualified leader.
However, he was a reliable friend.
Xia Feng said to Bai Xiaowen, "Okay, that's all for Xiao Xing … What do you want to say to me?"
Bai Xiaowen looked at Guo Baisheng and the others. "Mr. Xia Feng, may I have a word with you?"
Mr. Xia Feng nodded and said to Guo Baisheng, "Take Xiao Xing away."
Guo Baisheng nodded. He waved his hand and ordered the other two to take Xiao Xing and lead the other evolvers out of the forbidden area.
Only Xia Feng and Bai Xiaowen were left near the forbidden area.
"Go ahead," Mr. Xia Feng said briefly.
Bai Xiaowen took a deep breath. "I would like to ask Lord Xia Feng about the story of this Bone Melting Collar …"
Mr. Xia Feng's body trembled slightly as he carefully sized up Bai Xiaowen.
Bai Xiaowen felt a lot of pressure being stared at by Mr. Xia Feng. He could feel that the pressure Mr. Xia Feng gave him was much stronger than Xia Jincheng's. Even though they were both high-ranked lords, there seemed to be a considerable gap in strength.
After carefully looking at Bai Xiaowen, Mr. Xia Feng said slowly, "Follow me."
Bai Xiaowen didn't understand and followed behind Mr. Xia Feng. The two climbed along the small path at the back of the mountain.
It was strange. Mr. Xia Feng clearly had the ability to fly, but he still climbed the mountain on foot. Bai Xiaowen didn't understand, but he could only follow.
After reaching the peak of the forbidden area, Mr. Xia Feng looked at the vast expanse of sand in the distance and slowly said,
"This territory used to be called the Snow Collar … The sandbar in front of you was originally a plum forest. The scenery was very beautiful."
Bai Xiaowen looked at the sand under his feet and thought about the scenery of the Snow Collar. He nodded and said, "It was very beautiful, but it's gone now."
"Yes, this beautiful plum forest is just like the previous owner of the Snow Collar. However, both no longer exist. They were both destroyed by my hands, "Mr. Xia Feng said.
"… You're talking about the founder of the Snow Collar, Hua Xueli." Bai Xiaowen tried his best to keep his voice calm.
Mr. Xia Feng suddenly said, "The Starlink thinks she's called Hua Xueli, but they don't know her real name. Do you know what her real name is? "
Bai Xiaowen asked, "Is this very important?"
Mr. Xia Feng nodded. "You want to ask me about the story of the Snow Collar. Of course, I have to confirm if you're qualified to hear it …"
Bai Xiaowen was silent for a long time before he said word by word, "Her name is Bai Xiaohua."
Xia Feng's eyes, which were like cold stars, suddenly shot out a divine light. He suddenly reached out and grasped Bai Xiaowen's wrist. "So it's you."
Bai Xiaowen was a little surprised. He felt that he couldn't avoid Mr. Xia Feng's grip.
If Mr. Xia Feng had any ulterior motives, Bai Xiaowen would inevitably suffer a loss.
However, Bai Xiaowen stood alone in front of Mr. Xia Feng because he made the decision based on his own judgment. Through observation from the side and the front, he felt that Mr. Xia Feng wasn't that kind of person.
In particular, the four words that Mr. Xia Feng blurted out made Bai Xiaowen tremble as if he had been struck by lightning.
Mr. Xia Feng realized that he had lost his composure. A rare smile appeared on his stiff face and he let go of Bai Xiaowen's wrist.
"I'm now sure that you're qualified to hear this story … Come with me, we're entering the forbidden area."
…
In the center of the forbidden area was a stone cave.
A broken blade floated at the top of the cave. Looking at the style, it seemed to have come from the same saber as the broken blade that Mr. Xia Feng carried on his back. The material and color were very similar.
And that broken blade seemed to have a life of its own. It contained an extremely sharp aura, as if it would turn into a rainbow and chop off his head in the next moment.
"This is one of the restrictions that I left behind. It will attack any life form that enters the cave other than me. Every time I come here, I'll fill it with enough True Qi. "
Mr. Xia Feng patted Bai Xiaowen's shoulder lightly. A gentle aura enveloped him. "Alright, go in."
Enveloped by the aura that Mr. Xia Feng had given him, the broken blade seemed to regard Bai Xiaowen as an ally. After jumping twice, it calmed down.
Bai Xiaowen entered the cave. To his surprise, he discovered that the walls of the cave were carved from an extremely sturdy yellow crystal. This yellow crystal was a Dark Gold Grade material.
Dark gold material was actually carved into a cave! If this news were to spread, who knew how many people would be jealous?
Carving this dark gold material was not a simple matter. It required a martial arts expert to wield a carving knife with tyrannical force to leave a shallow mark on the surface.
After stepping into the cave, there was a long and narrow tunnel.
Mr. Xia Feng walked slowly in front, his footsteps gentle. He did not turn his head and said slowly, "Your real name is not Lu Wang, but Bai Xiaowen, right?"
Bai Xiaowen nodded. "So you've already guessed it."
Mr. Xia Feng said, "Your appearance is very similar to Xiaohua …"
Bai Xiaowen said, "When I was on the Evolutionary Platform, I used spiritual energy to hide my appearance."
"I can see your real appearance …" Mr. Xia Feng turned around and said.
