The peaceful and unchanging life of the Five Dragons was completely broken by an earth-shattering news.
When the saint they all admired fell from the altar and announced that she would retire and get married, it almost caused an uproar within the clan.
Li Shiqi is the first saint to quit her duties as a saint by choosing to stay with a man forever, and she will probably be the last saint to make such a choice.
Although all the clan members in the Wulong Clan were shocked by the news, no clan member would hate Li Shiqi because of this, because according to the clan rules, this is the power and freedom of the saint, and it is also a legal choice according to the ancestral rules.
So although there were many people talking about it, no one stood up to accuse Li Shiqi.
The ceremony for the handover of the saint's power is very simple.
When the saint returns the saint's sword, which represents the saint's supreme power, to the great elder, she waits for the new saint to be selected to take over.
Other than that, there is no need to go through any formalities.
Fan Wei returned to the house where he was under house arrest and told Yang Li all about his conversation with the saint.
Yang Li was surprised at first, but later she gradually came to understand Li Shiqi's choice.
After all, the canary has been locked in a birdcage for too long.
It either spends its life in the cage or flies out of the birdcage, soars into the sky and becomes a free bird.
It is estimated that many canaries like Li Shiqi will choose to fly out and see the wonderful world.
After just making some short preparations and packing some clothes and dry food, Fan Wei and Yang Li met Li Shiqi outside the Saint's Palace behind the ancestral hall.
Also present here were the great elder and his son, the strong man who wanted to marry Yang Li.
"The exit of the Five Dragon Clan is located in the cave at the back of this palace.
This is a very secret matter.
I hope that after you go out, you will keep this secret from outsiders.
I don't want outsiders to come again to disturb our original peace and tranquility.
"The great elder said seriously to Fan Wei, Yang Li and Li Shiqi, "The sky is as high as the birds can fly, and the sea is as wide as the fish can leap over Shiqi.
Take care of yourself."
Li Shiqi was wearing a simple outfit today.
Perhaps for convenience, she even dressed up very simply.
She just wore a ponytail and didn't wear any headdress.
However, her beautiful face was once again covered with a white veil.
It seemed that she, like Yang Yuyan, did not like to let others interfere with her appearance.
Faced with her father's words of concern, Li Shiqi's beautiful eyes flashed with a touch of emotion.
She replied gently, "Shi Qi failed to fulfill her filial piety, and I really feel sorry for her father's upbringing.
But Shi Qi has made up her mind. , Never regret it.
Father, take care.”
At this time, her brother Yili spoke a lot of his native language, and Li Shiqi also replied a few words, both of them feeling a little sad.
At this time, Fan Wei said, "Great Elder, I'll give this Phoenix Jade to you now.
It's useless for me to hold it."
Seeing Fan Wei trying to get the phoenix jade hanging around his neck, the great elder suddenly smiled and said, "Don't worry, let's go into the cave first.
The phoenix jade still has an important role."
"Oh" Fan Wei was stunned, but he still listened to the great elder and retracted his arm.
He and Yang Li looked at each other, both showing surprise.
Could it be that this Phoenix Jade will have some effect when they leave here?
Before the two of them could recover from the accident, the great elder led them towards the cave hidden behind the palace.
Soon, everyone arrived at the entrance of the underground cave located in the center behind the palace.
The great elder took the lead into the dark cave and used torches to light the candles placed in the cave one after another.
Soon, the darkness in the cave turned into light.
Fan Wei looked at the tall, semi-vaulted and spacious cave, and soon discovered that the cave was not naturally formed, but was dug manually.
He couldn't help but truly sighed that it was necessary to dig such a cave leading to the high mountains. , how much manpower and financial resources are needed to build the Five Dragon Clan?
It is really a mysterious and surprising tribe.

Starting to climb up the stone steps in the cave, Fan Wei soon discovered that starting from this section, some ancient paintings and treasures were placed on the walls of the surrounding caves, obviously for decoration.
But he still doesn't understand.
It's just a passage.
Do you need treasures to make this passage beautiful and elegant?
Could it be that this passage is a very sacred place for the Five Dragons?
Seeing the confusion on Fan Wei's face, Li Shiqi couldn't help but explain, "I know why you feel strange.
In fact, this cave is the most sacred place for our people, because it is not only the only passage to the outside world, but also one of the royal holy places."
After walking out of the stone gate, there is a hall in front, with two roads inside, one leading to the outside world, and the other leading to the royal holy land. " "Oh, so that's it."
Fan Wei finally understood.
It turned out that this cave was not just a passage, but also a sacred place.
No wonder it was decorated so grandly.
After everyone passed the long steps, they finally came to a sealed stone wall deep in the cave.
This stone wall looked very thick.
Fan Wei stepped forward and pressed it lightly, feeling that it was very hard.
It seems that this stone wall is the door blocking contact between the outside world and the Five Dragons.
"Mr.
Fan, now you can take out the phoenix jade.
To open this stone door, this phoenix jade is the key."
The great elder said solemnly, "Beyond this stone door is the starting point of the passage to the outside world.
Only with the phoenix jade Jade can open this stone door.
By the way, this.
The stone door can only be opened from the inside out, which means that after you go out, unless someone inside opens the stone door, you will never want to enter the territory of the Five Dragon Clan.
Oh, of course, if you are willing to fall off the cliff again. , as if I didn’t say it.”
Fan Wei and Yang Li were frightened when they heard about the cliff.
Are you kidding?
It was good luck that they didn't fall to death after falling from such a high place.
If not for the pine trees that grew out of the gaps when they fell on the cliff, they were The collision reduced the buffering force.
I am afraid that the two of them have already fallen into the mud.
How can they still stand here unharmed.
The Great Elder's meaning has been made very clear.
Walking out of this stone gate means that you will never be able to return to the Five Dragons Clan.
It turns out that this phoenix jade is not only a token of the clan leader, but also the only key to open the passage to the outside world.
"No wonder Fengyu is so important to the Five Dragons.
Great Elder, the clan leader who secretly fled took Fengyu and left the Five Dragons.
Doesn't that mean that you have had no contact with the outside world in the past ten years or even the people in the mountains?
The tribe has never been there."
Fan Wei finally understood the true meaning of Fengyu, and at the same time he also understood why the tribesmen in the mountains had already regarded the Five Dragons as a legendary nation.
"There has been no contact with the outside world for more than ten years or more since the last patriarch took office."
The great elder chuckled, "It doesn't matter if we don't contact us, the ethnic minorities in the mountains worship us like gods. , We don’t want to destroy this sense of mystery.
The Five Dragons are self-sufficient and don’t need outsiders to enter
