Chapter 5157 Long Yi Becomes a Disciple
“Brother Xuanhuang, there’s no need to be so polite. I have my own purpose in coming here. The internal strife in the Mountain and Sea World has not been completely settled yet, so there’s no need to trouble you.”
Xiao Yan's voice was calm and steady. He knew perfectly well that Xuan Huang's righteous assistance was no exaggeration; the other party was genuinely willing to follow and help him with all his might.
However, Xiao Yan declined, explaining that he had come to save Tianzang Wang and find the Dharma Image of Reincarnation, not specifically to quell the conflict between the mountains and seas, although the eventual outcome was a coincidence.
Xuanhuang stopped trying to persuade him after hearing this. After all, he had witnessed Xiao Yan's strength firsthand. Although Xiao Yan's cultivation level was inferior to his own, his actual combat skills far surpassed his own. This, on the contrary, ignited his fighting spirit for cultivation.
This journey across mountains and seas, though fraught with twists and turns, unexpectedly led to the rediscovery of Shenxi's lost Dharma Image of Reincarnation.
At this moment, two matters remain unresolved for Xiao Yan: First, the fate of Long Yi. Although the Lord of Illusionary Dreams has been defeated and fled, the hidden dangers still exist, and the world of mountains and seas itself is fraught with peril. Xiao Yan cannot bear to leave Long Yi alone.
Secondly, he was entrusted by the Chaos Conference “One” to search for the Primordial Divine Mountain in the ruins. However, since setting foot in the mountains and seas, he has been traveling around and has no clue about the mountain.
"Brother Xiao Yan, where did Brother Long Yi go? Let him stay in the World of Mountains and Seas! I, Xuan Huang, am willing to risk my life to protect him, and I will also do everything in my power to help him become the new King of the World of Mountains and Seas!" Seeing that Xiao Yan was determined to leave, Xuan Huang solemnly clasped his hands and earnestly requested that Long Yi be allowed to stay.
Xiao Yan's eyes flickered slightly, and with a flick of his sleeve, he summoned Long Yi from the Spirit Ruins, making him stand beside everyone again.
"Help him become king?" Xiao Yan's eyes blazed as he stared directly at Xuan Huang. "Brother Xuan Huang, I need to hear the truth."
He knew that helping Long Yi become king was no easy task and would cost a fortune. If there were no sufficient incentive, why would Xuanhuang be so persistent?
Xuanhuang coughed twice, looking slightly awkward, and glanced at Feng Xi, the leader of the Phoenix Clan, not far away. This matter had clearly touched on the core secrets of the Dragon Clan.
"My Phoenix Clan has no chance to compete for the throne, nor does it intend to." Feng Xi understood and spoke calmly, gracefully retreating hundreds of feet away.
Xiao Yan's powerful soul energy spread quietly, ensuring that not a single piece of information was leaked.
"I do have some selfish motives," Xuanhuang said frankly. "However, these motives concern the rise and fall of the entire Dragon Clan. If Brother Long Yi can become the new King of the Mountains and Seas, the entire Dragon Clan will be blessed by the fortune of the Mountains and Seas, and will surely rise to prominence and regain its former glory!"
"That's all, I have no other intentions. Brother Xiao Yan, you can rest assured." Xuan Huang's tone was resolute.
Along the way, Xiao Yan knew that Xuan Huang was a man of deep affection and righteousness, who cared for the common people and was by no means a liar.
Xiao Yan's concern was not for Xuan Huang himself, but for the many unknown dangers hidden in the world of mountains and seas.
“Brother Xiao Yan, there’s no need to worry,” Xuan Huang continued to advise. “Long Yi possesses the bloodline of Zhu Jiuyin and has already reached the realm of divine immortality. He cannot remain under your wing forever. A golden carp is not meant to stay in a pond; it must eventually meet its destined moment.”
At Xuanhuang's repeated pleas, Xiao Yan finally turned to look at Long Yi. The latter's gaze was deep and thoughtful.
“Long Yi,” Xiao Yan’s voice softened, carrying a fatherly gentleness, “Your choice to stay or leave is up to you. Although the world of mountains and seas is dangerous, it is the path to the top. I will not hinder your future. But if you are unwilling, your father can protect you for the rest of your life.”
In Xiao Yan's heart, Long Yi was no different from his own son. He never forced Long Yi to become an unparalleled expert to help himself or Shen Xi, he only wished that Long Yi could live freely and find the true meaning of life.
However, Xiao Yan also knew that in Long Yi's heart, he would always be number one. He was the only one before, and even after Qiuqiu was added, this affection was still irreplaceable.
“Father…” Long Yi paused, his expression still somewhat wooden, but his eyes now held a gleam of independent thought.
“Long Yi is willing to stay. If he can become stronger here, he can help his father, assist Shen Xi, and also… help Qiu Qiu.”
When he mentioned Qiuqiu, a rare soft light appeared in his eyes, and his words revealed a clear pursuit and goal.
Long Yi already had the answer in his heart and made his choice. Xiao Yan pondered for a moment.
“Father, you are fearless, and so am I. It doesn’t matter if this road is dangerous and difficult, I will definitely succeed.”
Long Yi understood Xiao Yan's worries and then expressed his firm determination.
"Okay, Dad respects your choice. Everyone has their own life to live, and I will definitely support you!"
Xiao Yan patted Long Yi's shoulder heavily. The latter's eyes were resolute. Since that was the case, it was time to let Long Yi fight for his own future.
If he could truly become the new King of the Mountains and Seas, it would be an unparalleled achievement for Long Yi, and his strength would also be able to break through to a higher level. Only by possessing the fortune of the Mountains and Seas could he bring out the full potential of Zhu Jiuyin's bloodline.
Besides that, there was the matter of Hunyuan Divine Mountain, but there were really no clues, so Xiao Yan didn't plan to stay in the Mountain and Sea any longer.
Xuanhuang immediately touched his brow and offered up his own soul blood, which floated in front of Xiao Yan.
"If Brother Xiao Yan is still worried, this wisp of soul blood is placed on you. If Brother Long Yi suffers any mishap, you can detonate the soul blood at any time and take my life!"
Xuanhuang is a man of true feelings, and this action was somewhat unexpected by Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan waved his hand and sent Xuanhuang's soul blood back.
"Although I haven't spent much time with Brother Xuanhuang, his character is beyond question. I'll leave you with a lot of help, Long Yi."
Xiao Yan cupped his hands in a fist and bowed deeply. Xuan Huang's eyes also gleamed with a sharp light. The trust Xiao Yan showed made his heart surge.
"With Brother Xiao Yan's trust, Xuan Huang will do anything, even die, to assist Brother Long Yi in becoming the new King of the Mountains and Seas!" Xuan Huang patted his chest and said solemnly.
"Your words are enough. Long Yi, kowtow and acknowledge him as your master. From now on, he will be your master," Xiao Yan said. Long Yi nodded and immediately kowtowed.
"Long Yi pays respects to Master Xuanhuang!"
Xuanhuang immediately stepped forward and helped Longyi up, a happy smile on his face. Taking in such a promising disciple was the greatest blessing of his life!
In fact, Xiao Yan understood that Xuan Huang had another hidden agenda, which was about his own strength.
Although he also possesses the fortune of mountains and seas, it is far from enough. If he wants to continue to climb higher in his realm, he needs more opportunities and good fortune.
Having a disciple like Long Yi is no less than any great fortune, and will be of great help to his future cultivation.
"Brother Xiao Yan, you have encountered many dangers since leaving the Divine Xi World, so I will give this to you!" As Xuan Huang spoke, he opened his mouth, and a beam of light floated out.
In an instant, it transformed into a towering mountain peak that suddenly appeared beneath the deep sea.
"I obtained this item by chance, and you should be able to guess what it is." Xuanhuang looked at Xiao Yan, his righteousness evident, and his affection for Xiao Yan was undisguised.
"Could this be... the Primordial Divine Mountain?"
