Under the lead of the Winged n’s patriarch and Shaman Ou Y, Long Yi’s group of six followed them through this beautiful forest. After traveling for quite some time, they arrived in front of a towering cliff. All along the cliff, fresh flowers and green grass could be seen. At the lower part of the cliff, a huge altar could be seen as if took up more than half of the cliff face. It bore a great resemnce to the Lightning God Altar Long Yi had seen in the Lightning God Forbidden Area, however, instead of silvery purple boulders, the Wind God Altar was built with cyan colored rocks. A mighty statue of the Wind God was standing above the altar which gave off a majestic aura.
Long Yi looked all around and surveyed the area. Looking up the cliff as far as his eyes could see, Long Yi saw many oval-shaped tunnel entrances on the cliff surface. Many heads were poking out from those cave entrances and they were using their curious gaze to look at Long Yi and his group.
“Hey patriarch, your nsmen don’t live in those caves do they?” Long Yi asked with a smile.
“We are members of the Winged n! We can fly and we are closest to the wind element. As such, the higher the ce, the better it is for us to live. Moreover, these aren’t ordinary caves... These are castles in the air.” The patriarch of Winged n said with pride.
Castles in the air? Long Yi’s smile changed as a weird expression appeared on his face. Weren’t these just caves? How could those caves be a castle? They were just lodgings which were located higher than those build on the ground, that’s all...
Along with the patriarch of Winged n, Long Yi and others entered thergest cave located at the highest position. The distribution of these caves had a regr pattern which resembled the shape of a pyramid. Long Yi reached the conclusion that the people residing in the higher levels were people of higher positions in the n.
The interior of the cave was out of Long Yi’s expectations. Jade stones and incense wood were used to decorate the insides of the cave. There were multicolored magicmps mounted on the walls inside the cave as well, which illuminated the entire cave. All in all, the cave had a unique style to it. The venttion inside the cave was also extremely good, and the air inside was also very pure. Long Yi felt that this cave was actually pretty goodpared to most of the houses he had seen.
Long Yi started to look all around this cave. The essories in this cave were very refined, and they were also very beautiful. There was no way the Winged n produced these items themselves and Long Yi instantly knew that the Winged n had bought them from the outside world. This also exined the fact that the Winged n didn’tpletely retire from the world. They should have ears and eyes nted in the outside world for them to obtain thetest information about the current state of the Blue Waves Continent.
“Is this the patriarch’s room? It truly is very stylish.” Long Yi praised as he walked into a highly decorated room.
“You are ttering me, that......”
“Eh, that sword on the wall is unexpectedly the work of a Dwarf Master! Wow, the hilt of that sword is forged with amethyst... Tsk tsk, patriarch, you guys are truly wealthy.” Long Yi interrupted the patriarch as he gasped in admiration when he looked at the sword hanging on the wall beside them.
“Everything is inherited from our forefathers. Our several thousand nsmen had always been self-sufficient, and as such, there is no such thing as the concept of money.” The Winged n’s patriarch could only endure his displeasure at Long Yi’s words as he exined with a forced smile on his face.
“Patriarch truly isn’t an ordinary person. As if dung and dirt, money is naturally nothing to the Winged n! However, to ordinary people like us, money is indeed a good thing! As it seems, I am in a tight spot at the moment, my hands are somewhat tied behind my back as I don’t have enough money to spend on my wives... As you know, I have numerous wives. Although I used to have a lot of money, my expenses on my wives can’t be looked down upon. How about helping me out a little here patriarch?” Long Yi joked as the smile on his face became even wider. Even someone like Barbarian Bull knew that he was just putting on an act when Long Yi said he was short of money. This nearly made the women behind himugh out loud. Wushuang and Barbarian Bull were clearest about the wealth Long Yi possessed. In the past, Long Yi had swept clean the mansion of the Holy City’s city lord. It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that Long Yi had wealth to rival an entire nation. How could he be poor?
Looking at the cheeky expression on Long Yi’s face, Ou Y felt a headacheing. However, she also felt that the situation was quite funny as Long Yi was asking the Winged n’s patriarch for money. However, only Ou Y found it funny as the old face of the Winged n’s patriarch begun to twitch.
“If there is anything Young Master Ximen need, then this patriarch will not be stingy about it, However......” Although the patriarch of the Winged n was furious in his heart, he hid his expression well.
“If that is the case, then I have to thank you in advance! It may be assumed that the forefathers of the Winged n had umted arge amount of wealth, but I certainly wouldn’t want much of it. It would seem impolite of me to ask for too much. So, how about giving me one million Amethyst Coins?” Long Yi asked with a sinister smile on his face.
One million Amethyst Coins? Before the patriarch of the Winged n could speak, several elders beside him jumped up and ferociously red at Long Yi. This kid actually asked for one million Amethyst Coins as soon as he opened his mouth! This was a billion gold coins he was talking about, one billion!
“Young Master Ximen, I was just speaking out of courtesy to you as a host. If you are deliberately making things difficult for us and courting disgrace, then you better give me an exnation about the matter of our Winged n’s sacred object.” The patriarch of Winged n no longer assumed a gentle expression. It was instead reced by a murderous look.
“Yo, you finally stopped acting. You should have done so earlier. I was tired of you ying around with me.” Long Yi sneered as he stared at the Winged n patriarch in disdain.
“Young Master Ximen, don’t be too excessive.” Ou Y reprimanded. Long Yi was currently in the Winged n’s territory. Even if he was extremely powerful, it was impossible for him to fight against the entire Winged n. At least, that was what Ou Y thought.
“Excessive? How can my request be considered excessive? This young master always has a sense of propriety. However, I will treat others like how they treat me,” Long Yi picked up a teacup on the table nearby and leisurely took a sip.
“Could it be that our courteous reception is not up to your standards? You are the one who can’t tell what is good for you. Why are you deliberately making things difficult for us?” Ou Y said with anger in her voice.
A trace of a cold smile appeared on Long Yi’s face as he answered Ou Y, “Courteous reception? Indeed, this looks like a courteous reception to you. We are surrounded by experts of your n, and a strong barrier has been set up around this room. Also, if my guess is correct, there should be a powerful mechanism somewhere in this room waiting for me to activate it. Miss beautiful Shaman, is this what you consider a courteous reception?”
Ou Y looked towards patriarch in surprise. When she saw that his expression changed the moment Long Yi exposed his n, she understood that everything Long Yi said was the truth.
“Patriarch, we should talk this out, it doesn’t need to be like this.” Ou Y anxiously said to the Winged n Patriarch. Although she didn’t think that Long Yi had the ability to contend against the entire Winged n, she knew that Long Yi’s group possessed a certain level of strength. She knew that they were in no way weaklings... Even cornered dogs would jump over the wall. If the entire Winged n were to attack Long Yi and his group, they would most certainly counterattack ferociously. Both sides would suffer great losses if they both were to fight it out to thest man. There was no way Ou Y was going to allow both sides to fight under this situation. Besides, Long Yi had taken the initiative toe to the Winged n this time by crushing the signal pearl she had given to him. This proved that he was sincere in his approach to working out a solution with the Winged n.
“There is nothing to discuss here. The Winged n’s sacred object belongs to the Winged n. He has to hand it over whether he likes it or not.” Seeing as Long Yi had seen through his little scheme, the patriarch of the Winged n tore off his mask of pretense and dered with an unyielding tone.
Listening to the Winged n patriarch, Long Yi and his group started to smile without a trace of fear on their faces. On their faces, looks of amusements could be seen as they stared at the experts of the Winged n. All of their experiences in the past had ced them in mortal danger. Even if they used both hands, they were unable to count the number of times they brushed past death. Even after so many close calls with death, they were still alive and kicking. Why would they be afraid of some Winged n’s experts standing before them?
As Ou Y stared at Long Yi and his group, she started to feel as though something was wrong. How could they be so calm in the face of danger? Where were they getting their confidence from? Could it be that all of them were confident they could fight head-on against the Winged n’s experts? It didn’t matter if Long Yi behaved fearlessly alone. However, every single person of his group had a nonchnt expression on their face. It was as though they were watching a y even though they already knew the ending to it. Perhaps they had a trump card which was hidden under their sleeves... This was the only exnation Ou Y could think of.
—————
“Winged n’s sacred object? Heh heh, are you talking about the Wind God spirit tablet? The Wind God spirit tablet naturally belongs to the Wind God, why would it belong to your Winged n?” The corners of Long Yi’s mouth curled up into a taunting smile as he folded his arms before his chest. Leaning back, Long Yi got into afortable position in his chair as he stared at the Winged n patriarch without blinking.
The expression of the Winged n patriarch, the elders of the Winged n, and Ou Y changed the moment the words ‘Wind God spirit tablet’ left Long Yi’s mouth. Never in their wildest imagination would they have thought that Long Yi knew about the Wind God spirit tablet. If he already knew that it was the Wind God spirit tablet, why in the world would he walk into their trap?
“Our Winged n is the loyal believer of Wind God. We naturally are the custodian of the Wind God spirit tablet” The patriarch of Winged n hastily exined.
“What a joke! If your words were the truth, anyone who believes in the Wind God would be the custodian of the Wind God spirit tablet. Now, if I say that I am also a believer of the Wind God, wouldn’t I be the custodian of the Wind God spirit tablet as well? There seems to be no problem with me taking away the Wind God spirit tablet this way.” Long Yiughed.
At this point, one of the Winged n’s elder became unable to endure Long Yi’s impudence any longer. In an instant, this elder stood up and bellowed, “The Wind God bestows wind power to her loyal believers, do you have it?”
The moment he asked his question, he raised his hand and began to chant a string of incantation. As soon as the incantation ended, a miniature tornado appeared on his palm which disappeared after a few seconds.
“Oh? Wind power? I had that kind of power since I was in my mother’s womb. Isn’t it just forming a tiny tornado? It’s very simple.” Long Yiughed and waved his hand in the air without any incantations. In the next moment, a violent gust of wind appeared inside the cave and formed a huge tornado. This tornado sucked up all the decorative items, teacups, teapots, and even tables and chairs. Lucky for the Winged n, everyone in this room was a powerful expert. If they were not powerful experts, they would have been sucked into the tornado as well and they would have turned into meat paste.
After demonstrating his might, Long Yi decided that enough was enough. With a snap of his finger, the tornado instantly disappeared. Everything which was sucked in by that tornado fell from midair, and the entire room instantly turned into a mess.
“Ya, sorry, I was unable to control my power when executing such a simple spell. Please excuse me.” Long Yi asked for forgiveness, but the smile on his face clearly indicated that his actions were intentional.
“Why are you able to use wind magic?” Ou Y was surprised once again. From what she knew, only members of the Winged n could use wind magic. However, Long Yi not only managed to use wind magic, he even managed to summon such a powerful tornado without using any incantations. How could this not shock her?
“Of course, this is the power bestowed on me by the Wind God when I was still in my mother’s womb.” Long Yi shrugged his shoulders andughed.
The patriarch and elders of Winged n looked at each other in nk dismay. This fellow was even more proficient than them in using wind magic... Could this fellow be telling the truth? Could the Wind God really have bestowed him with wind power before he was born?
“Patriarch, elders, and Miss beautiful Shaman, I think we should sit down and properly discuss this problem. Harmony is to be prized, isn’t that so? Be sure to not offend the Wind God... You should know that the Wind God is extremely terrifying when she gets angry.” Long Yi said.
“Young Master Ximen, we have nothing to discuss. You have nothing to back your words up, do you think that we will believe a single word you said? You have to return Wind God spirit tablet to us. Otherwise, you shouldn’t think about leaving this cave.” The patriarch of Winged n was no longer patient. The only purpose he lured Long Yi to this cave was to obtain the Wind God spirit tablet. He was unwilling to let the Winged n’s sacred object fall into the hands of an outsider.
“Wait a minute. Patriarch, I want to ask him a question.” Ou Y hastily said. Turning towards Long Yi, she asked, “From what you just said, you seem to be very familiar with the Wind God. I wonder what the rtionship between you and the Wind God is?”
It made sense for Ou Y to ask such a question. She was the Shaman of the Winged n, and she worshiped the Wind God to the utmost. In the event that Long Yi was telling the truth, wouldn’t the actions of the Winged n spheme the Wind God?
“Indeed, I am very familiar with the Wind God. Since you were the one who asked me, I’ll tell you the truth. As a matter of fact, the Wind God...... is my woman.” Long Yi smiled before seriously making his statement.
