"You..." When saintess and Lee Shiqi heard Fann Binn's indecent words, her face instantly turned red and she was about to get angry. But very quickly, she forcefully endured it and obediently took back the treasured sword. With a bashful expression, she said softly, "Alright, as long as husband is willing to take Shiqi away from the Five Dragons Clan, Shiqi is willing to listen to husband."
"That's more like it!" Fann Binn's male heroism in his heart was instantly inflated by Lee Shiqi's lovable words. He smiled evilly and said, "Well, if you want me to agree to take you out, I agree. If you want to become my woman, I agree too. Now, I have a few conditions for you, you must promise me... Only if I am willing, otherwise, even if you kill me... I won't bring you out either! "
Lee Shiqi obediently nodded her head in agreement and Qingcheng smiled, "Husband, please speak."
"First of all, I must make it clear to you that I have many beloved women outside. You must not be jealous of them, and you must not have a bad relationship with them. Since you want to become my, Fann Binn's, woman, you must know the way of holding a family. You should understand, right? Secondly, I have already told you that the outside world isn't as simple as the Five Dragons Clan. So, if you feel uncomfortable and regretful, it will be too late. This is the path you have chosen. Don't blame me when the time comes! "
After hearing Fann Binn's conditions, Lee Shiqi smiled and said, "I will listen to my husband."
"Don't say things like this when you have one husband and one husband on your left. We can call you by your name. You can call me Fann Binn. I'll just call you Shiqi. " When Fann Binn heard the word husband, he had an impulse to throw Lee Shiqi, who was such a beauty with a lively scent, onto the ground. Amitabha, Amitabha, this is a sin!
Lee Shiqi nodded and said, "Since you have agreed, when do you plan to take me away?"
"Of course, the sooner the better. I was plotted against outside. Now, those people must have spread the news that I am dead everywhere and still do not know what kind of chaos is going on outside. We have to leave this place as soon as possible. " Fann Binn was really worried about the safety of the women who were still in Beihai City. Since Yang Yuyan wanted him dead, there must be a scheme. The sooner he left this place, the sooner he would be able to control the situation.
"Alright, then today I will announce to the entire clan that I am willing to stay with you. Give up the title of saintess." Lee Shiqi was wearing a light gauze dress from the ancient palace and looked noble and steady. She was beautiful and generous. At this moment, she had a solemn expression and a smile on her face. "As long as I give up the title of saintess, I will be able to leave this place with you. The Five Dragons Clan will soon elect a new saintess, and I will finally get rid of this title of saintess."
"Then I really have to congratulate you, Shiqi." Fann Binn looked at the extraordinarily beautiful Lee Shiqi and smiled," Welcome to... My big family!"
The peaceful and unchanging life of Five Dragons Clan was completely broken by an earth-shattering news. When saintess, whom everyone admired, fell from the altar and announced that she was going to retire from the marriage, it almost caused an uproar in the clan. Lee Shiqi was the first saintess to withdraw from saintess's position by choosing to stay with a man. She was afraid that she would be the last one to make such a choice.
Although all the people in Five Dragons Clan were shocked by this news, no one would hate Lee Shiqi because of this. Because according to the rules of the family, this was saintess's power and freedom. It was also a legal choice in the rules of the ancestors. So even though many people were discussing, no one stood out to criticize Lee Shiqi.
The ceremony for saintess to hand over her power was very simple. When saintess returned saintess's supreme power, saintess's sword, to the Great Elder, and waited for the new saintess to take over, other than that, there was no need to go through any other procedures.
Fann Binn returned to the house that was under house arrest and told Yang Li about his conversation with saintess. At first, Yang Li was very surprised, but later on, she gradually understood Lee Shiqi's choice. After all, Canary was kept in the birdcage for too long. She either spent her entire life in the cage or flew out of the birdcage. She soared in the sky and became a free little bird. Many canaries like Lee Shiqi would probably choose to fly out. Let's see a wonderful world...
After a short preparation and packing up some clothes and rations, Fann Binn and Yang Li met up with Lee Shiqi outside saintess's palace at the back of the ancestral hall. The Great Elder and his son also appeared here. The strong man who wanted to marry Yang Li.
"The exit of the Five Dragons Clan is located in the cave behind this palace. This is a very secretive matter. I hope that you can keep this secret to the people outside after you leave this place. I don't want the people outside to interfere with our peaceful life anymore." The Great Elder looked at Fann Binn, Yang Li and Lee Shiqi and said seriously, "The sky is high and the birds are free to fly. The sea is wide and the fishes are free to jump! Shiqi, take care."
Lee Shiqi was wearing a simple outfit today. Perhaps it was to make it easier for her to dress up in a very simple manner. She only had a ponytail and did not wear any headgear on her head. However, her beautiful face was once again covered with a white veil. It seemed like she was the same as Yang Yuyan, who did not like others to touch her appearance.
In the face of her father's caring words, a trace of emotion flashed across Lee Shiqi's beautiful eyes. She replied gently, "Shiqi didn't fulfill her filial duty. I'm really sorry for father's care and upbringing. But Shiqi's heart had already made up her mind and she would never regret it. Father, take care. "
At this time, her brother Elijah said a lot of native language. Lee Shiqi also replied a few sentences and both of them felt a little sad. At this time, Fann Binn said, "Great Elder, I'll give this phoenix jade to you now. It's useless for me to take it."
Seeing that Fann Binn was going to take the phoenix jade from his neck, the Great Elder suddenly smiled and said, "There's no hurry. Let's go into the cave first. The phoenix jade has an important function."
“ Oh?" Fann Binn was stunned, but he still listened to the Great Elder. He retracted his arm. He and Yang Li looked at each other and both revealed surprised expressions. Could it be that when they left this place, what kind of use would this phoenix jade have?
Before the two of them recovered from their shock, the Great Elder led them towards the hidden cave behind the palace. Soon, they arrived at the cave entrance at the center of the underground cave behind the palace. The Great Elder took the lead and walked into the pitch-black cave. He used a torch to light the candles in the cave. Soon, the cave turned from dark to bright.
Fann Binn looked at the half-arched, spacious cave that was as tall as a person. He quickly discovered that the cave was not naturally formed, but man-made! He could not help but sigh. He wanted to dig a cave that led to the top of the mountain. How much manpower and financial resources would be needed to do that! The Five Dragons Clan was a mysterious and surprising tribe.
Following the stone steps in the cave, Fann Binn began to climb up the stairs. He quickly discovered that starting from this part of the road, there were some ancient paintings and treasures placed on the walls of the cave. It was obvious that they were used to decorate the walls. However, he still did not understand. It was just a passageway. Should he use treasures to make this passageway look beautiful and elegant? Could it be that this passageway was a very sacred place for the Five Dragons Clan?
Lee Shiqi saw the puzzled look on Fann Binn's face and explained. " I know why you find it strange. Actually, this cave is the most sacred place in our tribe. Because this is not only the only passageway to the outside world, but also the location of the Royal Sacred Land. After walking out of the stone door, there is a hall in front of us, and there are two paths inside. One leads to the outside world, and the other leads to the Imperial Sacred Land."
"Oh, so that's how it is." Only then did Fann Binn understand. This cave was not only a simple passageway, it was also the location of the Sacred Land. No wonder it was decorated so grandly.
After passing through a long flight of stairs, they finally arrived in front of a stone wall in the depths of the cave. This stone wall looked very heavy. Fann Binn stepped forward and lightly pressed on it. It felt very hard. It seemed that this stone wall was the door that blocked the connection between the outside world and the Five Dragons Clan?
"Mr. Fann, you can take out the Phoenix Jade now. If you want to open this stone door, this Phoenix Jade is the key." The Great Elder said with a solemn expression, "Outside this stone door is the starting point of the passageway to the outside world. Only by relying on the Phoenix Jade can you open this stone door. By the way, this stone door can only be opened from the inside out. In other words... after you go out, unless someone inside opens the stone door... Otherwise, you will never be able to enter the territory of the Five Dragons Clan. Oh, of course, if you are willing to fall down from the cliff again... Pretend I didn't say anything."
Fann Binn and Yang Li felt a lingering fear when they heard about the cliff. What kind of joke was this? It was lucky that he didn't fall to his death from such a high place. If it wasn't for the fact that he fell from the cliff... They broke a few pine trees that grew out of the cracks, which reduced the buffer. They would have already fallen to the ground and wouldn't be standing here safe and sound.
The Great Elder's meaning was very clear. Walking out of this stone door meant that they would never be able to return to the Five Dragons Clan. It turned out that this phoenix jade was not only the Patriarch's token, it was also the one that opened the passageway to the outside world. The only key!
"No wonder this phoenix jade is so important to the Five Dragons Clan. Great Elder... The patriarch who secretly escaped with Feng Yu had left the Five Dragons Clan, but that didn't mean that it had been more than ten years. None of you have any connection with the outside world? You haven't even been to the tribes in the mountains? " Fann Binn finally understood the true meaning of the phoenix jade. At the same time, he also understood why the people in the mountains were here. They had long regarded the Five Dragons Clan as a race of legends.
"It has been more than a dozen years... It has been decades since I last contacted the outside world after the appointment of the previous patriarch." The Great Elder smiled and said, "It's good that we don't contact them. Those minorities in the mountains worship us like the God Race. We don't want to destroy this mystery. Five Dragons Clan is self-sufficient and doesn't need anything from the outside world to enter."
