1680 The Secret of the Bloodline (4)
Qu Lanyi’s body stiffened. His physique wasn’t unique in the Naxi family. It had appeared before! Why didn’t his father say anything about this? Even the elders of the Naxi family didn’t say anything!
Qu Lanyi’s black eyes glittered. “Senior’s friend… What happened to them?”
Feng Qingxuan was silent for a moment. Then, he looked ahead and heaved a sigh. “He… is dead. Even his soul has dissipated.”
The expression on his handsome face was completely frozen. Qu Lanyi’s muscles tightened in an instant. He kept repeating what Feng Qingxuan said in his mind. He was dead… Even his soul couldn’t be preserved. Was this the final fate of keeping light and darkness in the same body of? He clenched his fists so hard that he instantly felt sharp pain.
Feng Qingxuan glanced at Qu Lanyi. “There are always exceptions. You might be one of them.”
Qu Lanyi was still silent. An exception… If that was the case, why didn’t his father tell him anything about the person from the Naxi family? If Fengfeng’s master hadn’t mentioned it today, he wouldn’t have known at all!
“Thank you for telling me, Senior,” said Qu Lanyi. He didn’t look relaxed at all. Feng Qingxuan raised the corners of his mouth. “Instead of thinking about that, why don’t you think about whether you can master the method I’ll teach you later? I’ll only say it once.”
Qu Lanyi chuckled with gratitude in his black eyes. “Senior, please enlighten me!”
When Yun Feng came to where Qu Lanyi and Feng Qingxuan were, she saw that the atmosphere between the old man and the young man was quite harmonious. Yun Feng was a bit surprised. She thought that her master would make things difficult for Qu Lanyi with his temper, but the two of them got along quite well.
“Master, are you alright?” Yun Feng came. Feng Qingxuan sat cross-legged with a hint of blood on his pale face. “I’m fine. My mental strength is just recovering slowly.”
Qu Lanyi was also sitting on the ground. When Yun Feng arrived, he had already widened his black eyes and looked at Yun Feng with a smile. “Senior is indeed fine. Don’t worry.”
Yun Feng smiled in relief. Thinking about what happened just then, and because the previous master of the Dragon Palace was her master, she should tell him everything about the Dragon Palace. Yun Feng told him everything. Feng Qingxuan only chuckled after hearing that, as if he wasn’t surprised.
“Master, you’ve already known?” Yun Feng was confused to see that Feng Qingxuan wasn’t surprised at all. Feng Qingxuan nodded. “I’ve been locked up in the Beast Tower for so long. I’ve already known the relationship between the Dragon Palace and the Beast Tower.”
Qu Lanyi frowned slightly after hearing that. “The Dragon Palace can be said to be a part of the Beast Tower, but for some reason, it broke away and was even taken away from the Beast Region. Senior, where did you get the Dragon Palace?”
Feng Qingxuan raised his brows. “It can be said to be a coincidence. I explored with some old guys. The strongest one got it.”
So, the Dragon Palace was unowned before Feng Qingxuan took it over… So, nobody knew when the Dragon Palace left the Beast Region.
“Could it be… related to the few Fantastical Beasts that went missing in the Beast Region?” Yun Feng mumbled. The Fantastical Beasts were missing and a part of the Beast Tower was also missing for some reason. All of this was already unusual. There must be something fishy. Combined with the jade pendant in her hand and Qu Lanyi’s, she could confirm that the ones sealed inside must be related to the Fantastical Beasts. Judging from that… the Fantastical Beasts had been gone for a long time.
So… Feng Qingxuan must’ve been active a long time ago. He might even know some of the ancestors of the Yun family!
“Master, do you know anyone from the Yun family?” Yun Feng asked. They were all summoners. The Yun family shouldn’t have been on the decline when Master was active!
“Haha, of course I do. How can I not know the Yun family, which is known for its summoner bloodline?” Feng Qingxuan chuckled. Yun Feng’s heart pounded hard! Hot blood surged in her heart. What was the Yun family like back then? They were probably quite strong!
“Senior, in that era, the Naxi family hadn’t gone into hiding yet?” asked Qu Lanyi tentatively. Feng Qingxuan said, “In the era when I was active, the Naxi family had already gone into hiding. As for the other three families, they were all very powerful, especially the Yun family. It can be said that the summoner bloodline had reached the peak.”
Yun Feng’s heart heated up! When she saw that scene in the Yun Palace back then, it was probably the show of the Yun family’s prosperity! Such a large-scale Yun Palace, the ancestor of the Yun family, the appearance of the Yun family badge… These were all traces of the Yun family’s glory!
“Master, do you know Yun Zhan?” asked Yun Feng. Feng Qingxuan was stunned for a moment. “Of course. He’s an impressive elder of the Yun family. I heard that he’s also the strongest member of the Yun family. It’s just that I was still a young man back then.”
Yun Feng heaved a sigh of relief. The decline of the Yun family must have started at that time. It had been almost a thousand years. In these thousand years, the Yun family had experienced too much vicissitudes of life and bullying. Even though the Yun family already had an absolute status in the Inner Area right now, it was still incomparable to the Yun family a thousand years ago!
“The Blood Souls probably hadn’t appeared in Senior’s era yet,” whispered Qu Lanyi. Feng Qingxuan was confused. “The Blood Souls? What’s that?”
Yun Feng said with a heavy tone, “It’s an organization that rose inexplicably. All the members of the organization are proficient in the dark element. They collect all kinds of special bloodlines. We can confirm that they have Fantastical Beasts in their hands right now. As for the ultimate purpose of the Blood Souls, we don’t know yet.”
Feng Qingxuan frowned hard. Yun Feng suddenly remembered something. Apart from collecting special bloodlines, the Blood Souls were also very concerned about the map fragments! Master might know about the map fragments!
“Master, do you know the map fragments?” asked Yun Feng. Feng Qingxuan was confused. Yun Feng immediately took out the fragments of the map she found. Feng Qingxuan’s expression changed drastically after seeing that! “Disciple, why do you have these?”
“Master, you know them? I got them by chance. I don’t know what this map represents.”
Feng Qingxuan picked up the map fragments and looked at them carefully. He suddenly burst into laughter. Yun Feng and Qu Lanyi were both confused. After laughing, Feng Qingxuan put on a reminiscent expression. “This is a Map of Elements.”
“A Map of Elements?”
