"Then who are these two?" Zuo Leng nodded slightly when he heard Xiao Fan say his name. Then, he turned to look at Akira Yuki and Xing Qing beside Xiao Fan and asked curiously.
Akira Yuki was currently nestled in Xiao Fan's arms like a kitten. She was wearing a large black robe that prevented others from seeing her face clearly. Xing Qing, on the other hand, was wearing a veil to cover her face. Therefore, the two women's unparalleled beauty was not noticed by others for the time being.
"This is my daughter, and this is my mount!" Xiao Fan was very calm. He glanced at Akira Yuki and Xing Qing and said directly. He did not care about hiding anything.
As soon as Xiao Fan finished speaking, suddenly!
"What?"
The eighteen people from the Ironwood Sect were all stunned. Then, they looked at Xiao Fan and the other two with extremely astonished eyes. It was as if they could not believe their ears.
Daughter, mount!
The two identities of Ming Yexue and Xingqing had greatly exceeded the expectations of Zuo Leng and the other eighteen people from the Ironwood Sect. When they suddenly heard this, they could only stare blankly and were somewhat unable to react.
"Daughter? Mount? " Zuo Leng was the first to regain his senses. Then, he looked at Akira Yuki and Xing Qing with a strange expression and said.
"Yes!" Xiao Fan did not care about what others thought of him because it did not matter. He smiled at Zuo Leng and nodded again.
"It seems that I am really a little ignorant!" Zuo Leng really did not know what to say about this. He could only shake his head and smile.
"Young Master Xiao already has a cultivation companion at such a young age. Then, he has a crystallized daughter. I can understand this, but why is this lady a mount?" A female genius from the Ironwood Sect seemed to have a good impression of Xing Qing. At this moment, after hearing Xiao Fan call Xing Qing his mount, she thought that Xiao Fan had some strange fetish and was abusing Xing Qing. Therefore, she was immediately filled with righteous indignation and questioned Xiao Fan with a tone of criticism.
"Not bad!" At this moment, the other female geniuses from Steel Wood Sect also pitied each other as they questioned Xiao Fan. A sliver of disgust rose in their eyes as they opened their mouths to question Xiao Fan.
"I can't agree with Young Master Xiao's way of doing things!" The female heaven's pride of the Ironwood Sect, who had a favorable impression of Xiao Fan's group and had supported Zuo Leng in bringing Xiao Fan's group up, also spoke out at this time. Her eyes were filled with disgust for Xiao Fan as she shook her head.
"See, I told you that it was wrong to bring these three people along. The Saint is right!" The Ironwood Sect prodigy who had objected to Xiao Fan's group boarding the boat immediately raised his head and spoke with a victorious tone.
"Miss, if you have any hidden troubles, you can tell us. Our Ironwood Sect will help you!" At this moment, the female heaven's pride of the Ironwood Sect all stood up and walked towards Xing Qing as they spoke at the same time.
Looking at the female heaven's pride of the Ironwood Sect who stood up for her, Xing Qing's eyes immediately flickered as a faint trace of gentleness appeared in her eyes.
She had lived for thirty to forty thousand years. Although she had spent most of her time suppressed under the Yin Yang Refining Array in Death Valley and had very little contact with other people, Xing Qing was not an ignorant person who had not seen anything. She had a deep understanding of the fickleness of the world.
Now, these Ironwood Sect girls did not know her at all. Although it was just a misunderstanding, they were willing to stand up for her instead of cleaning the snow in front of their own door. This made it difficult for her to truly calm down for a moment.
"Ladies, you have misunderstood!" Xiao Fan spoke at this moment. Looking at the female heaven's pride of the Ironwood Sect walking over, he nodded his head and said, "She is indeed my mount. I don't have any weird fetish like you all think I have!"
"Moreover, she's not as simple as you all think. She's just an ordinary human girl!"
"In short, this matter is not something that can be easily explained with just a few sentences. I also know that you all have no ill intentions, so I won't be angry over this. I'm just kindly advising you all that it's best if you don't interfere in this matter!"
"We have misunderstood?" The female heaven's pride of the Ironwood Sect all raised their eyebrows. The dislike and disgust towards Xiao Fan in their eyes became even more intense. Then, they did not stop walking and insisted on coming forward to 'rescue' Xing Qing.
"Alright, you all sit down obediently. Don't act recklessly!" Zuo Leng spoke at this moment and ordered the female heaven's pride of the Ironwood Sect to sit down.
"Martial Uncle!" The female heaven's pride of the Ironwood Sect immediately stopped in their tracks. However, they all had unwilling expressions as they looked at Zuo Leng and called out.
"Sit down!" However, Zuo Leng was unmoved. He raised his thick eyebrows and spoke again. His voice carried a few hints of sternness and command.
"Yes, Martial Uncle!" The female heaven's pride of the Ironwood Sect was instantly deflated. Dejected expressions appeared on their faces. Then, they helplessly turned around and returned to their seats.
However, although they sat down and did not step forward to attack, they still stared at Xiao Fan unkindly. Moreover, the other heaven's pride of the Ironwood Sect beside them also looked at Xiao Fan unkindly.
Unknowingly, Xiao Fan had become the public enemy!
"Before the matter is clarified, don't act rashly. Otherwise, it's easy to do something wrong with good intentions. Many times, the consequences caused by doing something wrong with good intentions are far more serious than the consequences caused by doing something evil intentionally!" Zuo Leng spoke at this moment and taught all the heaven's pride of the Ironwood Sect.
However, none of the heaven's pride of the Ironwood Sect spoke in response to Zuo Leng's teachings. They all remained silent and did not say a word. Obviously, they were not convinced by this matter and did not agree with Zuo Leng's words.
"We've really made a fool of ourselves in front of Young Master Xiao!" Zuo Leng cupped his hands towards Xiao Fan again and said apologetically.
"It doesn't matter. It's just a misunderstanding!" Xiao Fan shook his head and said with a smile. He did not mind at all.
"May I know why Young Master Xiao is going to the Heavenly Clouds Mansion?" Zuo Leng immediately changed the topic and said with a smile, as if he wanted to resolve the awkwardness brought about by the small conflict just now.
"I'm here for the Millennium Stele and the Dragon Tiger Arena of the Heavenly Clouds Mansion. I've heard of their famous names a long time ago. This time, I happened to pass by, so I came to take a look!" Xiao Fan nodded and said.
"It seems that we're all going to the Heavenly Clouds Mansion for the same purpose. Our Ironwood Sect is going to the Heavenly Clouds Mansion this time for these two items!" Zuo Leng said with a smile.
"You're also here for the Millennium Stele and the Dragon Tiger Arena, but why do I feel that your Ironwood Sect is going to the Heavenly Clouds Mansion this time?" Xiao Fan asked curiously.
"Don't you know?" Zuo Leng asked immediately.
"Don't know what?" Xiao Fan was surprised.
"It's like this. A few days ago, the Millennium Stele and the Dragon Tiger Arena underwent a change that occurs once in a thousand years. But this time, the change is different from the previous ones. The momentum is extremely great, and the vision emitted by it almost reflected the entire Heavenly Clouds Mansion!" Zuo Leng said, "So many people believe that an unprecedented great opportunity will be born on the Millennium Stele and the Dragon Tiger Arena this time!"
"The Millennium Stele and the Dragon Tiger Arena undergo a change once in a thousand years!" Xiao Fan nodded slightly when he heard Zuo Leng's words. He seemed to be thinking about something as he muttered to himself.
When he was in the Eastern Region, Xiao Fan had heard of the Millennium Stele and the Dragon Tiger Arena of the Spirit Realm. He also heard about the changes that occurred once in a thousand years.
No one knew why the Millennium Stele and the Dragon Tiger Arena underwent a change once in a thousand years. But one thing was certain, every time they underwent a change, it meant that a great opportunity was about to descend.
It was said that ten thousand years ago, there was a heaven's pride in the Spirit Realm. He was very ordinary and could be said to be unknown, but he accidentally obtained an unimaginable great opportunity on the Dragon Tiger Arena. From then on, he became a peerless heaven's pride ranked in the top one hundred in the Eastern Spirit Lower State. Finally, he grew up and became the overlord of the Eastern Spirit Lower State, shocking an era.
There were many other similar examples of carps transforming into dragons, so it was not necessary to list them all!
And all the examples proved that the Millennium Stele and the Dragon Tiger Arena were two extraordinary things. The moment they underwent a change, it was the moment when a great opportunity descended.
As long as one could catch up to this great opportunity, the benefits would be endless!
"In the past few days, the entire Spirit Realm has been shaken. Other than the Northern Heavens Sacred Land and the Heavenly Sword Mountain, many great sects have sent their seed disciples to the Heavenly Cloud Mansion!" Zuo Leng said, "And our Ironwood Sect has also mobilized a lot of people to come here!"
"Actually, the other large sects from the other prefectures have already arrived. Our Ironwood Sect was delayed by some private matters and only arrived now. Therefore, we can be considered as the last batch to arrive!" A middle-aged man from the Ironwood Sect beside Zuo Leng suddenly chimed in.
"These things are very easy to know, but Young Master Xiao doesn't know?" Zuo Leng looked at Xiao Fan and asked curiously.
"I'm not a native of the Eastern Spirit Lower Prefecture. I just came here not long ago. Although I've heard about the Millennium Stele and the Dragon Tiger Arena, I've been on my way here and haven't had much time to talk to others. I'm not sure about it!" Xiao Fan said.
"I see!" Zuo Leng suddenly understood and nodded.
"And this time's change can be considered a coincidence!" The middle-aged man from the Ironwood Sect said with a smile, "In the past, when the Millennium Stele and the Dragon Tiger Arena changed, it was always during the winter season of the Heavenly Stream. So, not only will all the great sects of the Spirit Realm gather here, the great sects of the Dark Realm and the Eastern Domain will also come!"
"And this time, it's the winter season. The Heavenly Stream has completely isolated the three great domains, so the great sects of the Dark Realm and the Eastern Domain can't come. So this time, the great opportunity of the Millennium Stele and the Dragon Tiger Arena will be shared by the great sects of the Spirit Realm!"
