Chapter 1344 - 1344 Sheng Xiao, I've Been Waiting for You for a Long Time
1344 Sheng Xiao, I’ve Been Waiting for You for a Long Time
“The Magic Flood Dragon Clan…” Sheng Xiao had some impression of the Magic Flood Dragon Clan.
The Magic Flood Dragon Clan was a subordinate clan of the Black Qing Sky Dragon Race. Their relationship was just like that of the Vermillion Bird Clan and the Divine Feather Phoenix Clan. In the ancient era, the Magic Flood Dragon Clan would send their outstanding disciples to the Black Qing Sky Dragon Race and let them learn from the teachers of the Sky Dragon Race. If they could stay in the Sky Dragon Race to work after they reached adulthood, it would bring glory to their ancestors.
At that time, the Magic Flood Dragon clan regarded the Black Qing Sky Dragon Race as gods.
Who would dare to believe that the former servant clan had actually become so glorious now?
Sheng Xiao sneered. “As expected, when there’s no tiger in the mountain, a monkey reigns supreme.”
“A tiger is bullied by a dog when it’s down, but when a tiger returns to the mountain, how can the dog even have the right to bark?” Shaking his head, Mo Xiao snorted as he said, “The leader of the Magic Flood Dragon clan didn’t participate in my wedding yesterday. I think they must have heard about your relationship with me and didn’t dare to come.”
“I’ll come back eventually. I’ll line up to admire the scene of the lightning striking the Sky Dragon. Godfather, see you on the mountain.” Then, Sheng Xiao walked towards the tourist center.
Mo Xiao stared at his back for a while before teleporting to the top of the mountain.
Sheng Xiao was wearing a white shirt, black pants, flats and a baseball cap. He should not have been eye-catching among the tourists, but his imposing aura and tall figure still made him the center of attention.
After he spent 50 spirit stones to buy a high-altitude ticket, he queued up with the tourists.
The Soul Formation Mountain was one of the most famous attractions on the demon beast continent. It received tens of thousands of tourists every day and the queue was U-shaped. Sheng Xiao queued for an hour before it was his turn to take the high altitude cable.
The ropeway was spacious and could seat 20 people in a car. There was transparent glass on all four sides and a transparent floor under their feet.
Sheng Xiao sat with a group of Civilian tourists. As he leaned against the bottomless abyss under the transparent floor, he could clearly feel his heartbeat. The closer he got to Yu Aofeng, the more violent the energy in his body became and his body temperature was rising.
Sitting in the cable car, he heard the tourists muttering non-stop—
A woman in her early twenties who was dressed like a university student said, “Two years ago, my parents came to the Soul Formation Mountain late at night. They saw the lightning illuminate the Soul Formation Mountain and it struck that dragon until it cried out in pain.”
“So, the dragon at the foot of the Soul Formation Mountain is really still alive?”
“Of course! That lightning was the punishment given to that dragon by the Creator. If that dragon dies, the lightning will stop.”
“Wow, what did that dragon do to offend the Creator?”
“I don’t know about that…”
“However, I heard that that dragon committed all kinds of evil and killed people like flies. It once swallowed an entire city’s citizens in one bite. That was why it angered the Creator and was suppressed by the Creator at the foot of the Soul Formation Mountain. I heard that someone even threw rotten eggs at the foot of the Soul Formation Mountain.”
“But why did I hear that the dragon at the foot of the Soul Formation Mountain is actually a demigod? He made a bet with the Creator and made a deal. He was willingly imprisoned in Soul Formation Mountain.”
“…”
The 19 people in the car said 19 different versions of the story.
In their story, Yu Aofeng was a heinous bastard who was promiscuous, murderous, and lustful. A woman who was born in a cultivation family explained softly, “Everyone, stop making wild guesses. The senior at the foot of the Soul Formation Mountain isn’t a bad person. He is a person who values friendship and righteousness. He is indeed a demigod. The reason why he didn’t become a Divine Master is because of the woman he loved. He used the opportunity to give up the chance to become a Divine Master in order to ask the Creator for a marriage compact in order to find his lover’s reincarnation. His act of giving up the chance to become a Divine Master angered the Creator, and that was why he was punished by the Creator.”
“Don’t speculate about him. He’s an admirable person.”
Mo Xiao glanced at the woman and noticed a red line tied to her hand, so he suddenly asked the woman, “How do you know?”
The woman looked up at Sheng Xiao.
From the moment she entered the car, the woman noticed Sheng Xiao, who was sitting by the window and looking down at the transparent floor under his feet. She didn’t see Sheng Xiao’s face, but she could guess from his bearing that he was a handsome man.
When she saw Sheng Xiao’s face, the woman was stunned by his handsome looks.
She blushed slightly and explained in a low voice, “In our cultivation world, his legend has always been famous. In the hearts of unmarried men and women in the cultivation world, this Dragon Race’s crown prince is the embodiment of the Love God. Everyone who wants to obtain a good marriage and find the person they like will come to the Soul Formation Mountain to pray in hopes of obtaining his blessings.”
The woman touched the red line on her wrist and said shyly, “My husband is a Master warrior. I’m here to pray to the Crown Prince for his safety.”
“Many young men and women come to pray for his blessings?”
“Yes, he’s the only person in this world who would rather give up the chance to become a Divine Master than wait for his lover to reincarnate. He offended the Creator, but he’s the Love God in our hearts,” the girl said piously. “I hope he can hear my prayers and protect my husband.”
Upon hearing this, the other tourists in the car who didn’t know the truth were shocked. “So that crown prince isn’t a bad person.”
The woman hurriedly said, “Of course not! In the cultivation world, everyone respects him very much. Those bad rumors about him were spread by people with ulterior motives.”
“I see…”
Sheng Xiao’s gloomy mood finally improved after being defended by the woman. He stared at the red line on the girl’s wrist as he told her sincerely, “Your husband will definitely return safely.”
The woman grinned and said, “Thank you for your blessing.” Although she didn’t receive the Dragon Prince’s blessing, she was very happy to receive the blessing of an unfamiliar man, especially a handsome man.
The carriage stopped.
The staff opened the car door and urged in a low voice, “Get out of the car quickly. Don’t delay the tourists behind.”
After Sheng Xiao followed them out of the cable car and out of the cable station, he saw a wide square. There were three ancient words written on the stone tablet in front of the square.
Soul Formation Mountain.
Below the stone tablet, the origin of the Soul Formation Mountain and the identity of the person suppressed at the foot of the mountain were written.
Mo Xiao was wearing a gray shirt and he stood beside the stone tablet with his hands behind his back. When he saw Sheng Xiao, he looked up at the clear sky and muttered, “Listen…”
After Sheng Xiao closed his eyes and held his breath, he pricked up his ears and his spiritual energy automatically blocked the commotion from the tourists. Then, he heard a weak and pained groan.
“Roar!”
Sheng Xiao opened his eyes.
Yu Aofeng was still alive.
Sheng Xiao walked to Mo Xiao’s side and looked at the sunken valley diagonally across the square with him. Mo Xiao took the initiative to be the tour guide and pointed at the valley as he explained, “When Yu Aofeng was first suppressed, this valley was the tallest mountain in the Divine Mountain Range.”
“The Creator pulled the entire Divine Mountain Range up from the ground and suppressed the severely injured Dragon Prince, whose soul was fragmented, under the mountain range. 12,000 years of continuous lightning gradually turned the former high mountain into a valley.” Mo Xiao stared at the center of the valley as he lamented, “Those dents are the marks left by the lightning.”
Staring at the marks, Sheng Xiao felt as if he could feel the pain of the lightning whip on his body.
Bang!
Bang!
As Sheng Xiao closed his eyes and felt the call of the mysterious power, he could hear his heart beating violently. He could also hear a weak man’s voice calling him over and over again.
“Sheng Xiao, come and see me!”
“Sheng Xiao, I’ve waited for you for a long time…”
Suddenly, a strong wind blew on the mountain peak.
The staff member’s voice spread throughout the entire mountain through the radio. “All passengers, sit down immediately and fasten your seatbelts! Now, the dark clouds have suddenly arrived and there will be a storm later. Soon, you will be able to appreciate the scene of the lightning striking the dragon!”
Sheng Xiao smiled mockingly when he heard the staff’s words. “I can’t wait.”
Mo Xiao glanced at Sheng Xiao sympathetically and said, “Be prepared. When the lightning comes, it will be the time when the suppression is the weakest. That will be our opportunity!”
