After walking along the street for a while, Xiao Yunluo and Feng Yu Die soon arrived at the **Duchun City** Lord's Mansion. After showing their identity cards and informing them of their intention, the **Duchun City** Lord dispatched someone to the ***Dragon House***.
They waited in the City Lord's Mansion for a while before several ***Dragon House*** guards in armor arrived on flying swords and led them up the mountain.
The flying swords passed through the clouds of the **Dragon Mountain**, and when Feng Yu Die looked at the Immortal Mansion on the top of the mountain, her eyes widened in surprise.
Unlike those immortal mansions in her impression, this ***Dragon Mansion*** was simply like moving a city to the mountain, with no sense of transcendence, but instead exuding a majestic and solemn appearance.
To sum it up in one sentence, it was like moving the ordinary people's capital's imperial palace to the mountains.
There were 100-foot-high city walls on all sides, double eaves roofs with glazed tiles, red lacquer doors, and pedestals.
Besides these architectural styles that had little to do with cultivators, there were also markets and shops in the mansion, each of them several times richer than the ones from **Duchun City** down the mountain.
"This ***Dragon House*** is built... a little too much, right?"
Feng Yu Die asked rhetorically. The mansion guard who was leading the way didn't blame her when he heard that. Instead, he turned to her and explained, "There are many ordinary villages and towns around the ***Dragon House***. Therefore, when the ancestors built it, they hired commoner craftsmen but replaced the building materials with spiritual materials. Also, the surrounding defensive formations were set up by the Immortal Matriarch herself."
Hearing her mother's name, Xiao Yunluo widened her eyes. This was the first time she had heard of this.
"Huh? Is that so?"
"Yes, Young Lady Xiao."
The guard nodded, cupped his hand in respect, and continued his introduction. "The Old Master has allied with the Immortal Matriarch to fight against seven demonic cultivating sects, including the ***Demonic*** and the ***Magical Poison*** Sect, and finally drove all those demonic cultivators to the east of the **White Cloud Mountains**. Since then, the term '**Eastern Region**' came into existence within the **Zhouxing Heavenly Realm**."
"After that, the Immortal Matriarch gave the Old Master a suppressing mountain black stone. After thinking about it for more than a year, the Old Master finally chose to establish the ***Dragon House*** here to suppress the mountain's extremely flaming spiritual veins. That's why during the summers in the **Western Region**, the mountains and rivers here are protected from the ravages of the hot sun."
"Is that so..."
Xiao Yunluo really didn't expect that Master Li of the **Dragon Mountain** and her mother used to have such a good relationship. Thinking about it, she suddenly realized that she actually didn't know her mother at all.
What kind of friends did she have? What great things had she experienced?
Her mother never told her any of these. The only thing she knew was that her mother was very powerful, she knew many people and demonic cultivators were very afraid of her.
Feng Yu Die hesitated and asked again, "It turns out that there are extremely flaming spiritual veins down there? That's why it's so hot here now? Even us cultivators can't stand this climate."
The guard replied with a smile, "Actually, in previous years, the summer was not as hot as this. I don't know what's going on this year, but there's really a lot more fiery spirit qi."
"Hmm..." Feng Yu Die asked bluntly, "Is there a problem with the spell formation that suppresses the spirit vein?"
"Well..."
The guard didn't know how to answer, and he looked embarrassed. Fortunately, Xiao Yunluo quickly pinched her waist.
"You second idiot! How can you even ask this question?"
"Ouch! It hurts!!"
Feng Yu Die almost fell off the flying sword as she quickly rubbed her waist, huffing a few times.
"I'm just asking... in case it was overlooked?"
"What case? Master Li has been suppressing the spirit vein here for hundreds of years. How could he possibly be negligent in such a matter?"
"..."
Knowing she was in the wrong, Feng Yu Die shut her mouth and stopped talking. However, Xiao Tian emerged from her soul realm at this time.
She sat on Feng Yu Die's shoulder, glanced at the ***Dragon House*** below, and said, "*Yu Die, you are right. There may be something wrong with the suppression spell formation here. There should be something wrong with the five-phase spiritual energy*."
"Hmm..." Feng Yu Die signaled with her eyes to continue.
"*It may be that some new spell was set up, but it collided with the original spell formation that suppressed the spiritual veins. The five-phase spiritual energy went into disarray, so the original spell's effect was greatly reduced*." Xiao Tian spread her hands and continued her explanation. "*This large-scale suppressing spell formation was extremely strict about Feng Shui and the five-phase spiritual energy. Once it was set up, it was troublesome to change it, but it was not a big problem*."
Listening to Xiao Tian's words, Feng Yu Die nodded in understanding. She was originally going to repeat her words, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she closed it again.
Anyway, she was going to see Li Feng soon, so she could talk to him directly then.
After about a quarter of an hour of flying, a group of guards led them to a back courtyard of the inner mansion of the ***Dragon House***.
The leading guard spoke to a maid, and then the maid took over the guard's place and led them through the moon-shaped gate into the courtyard.
Inside was a garden with many rare and precious ornamental plants, and in the center, there was also a small pond with colorful koi carp jumping around.
Following the maid through three paths with stone platforms, they finally arrived at a stone pavilion.
Inside the pavilion was a gray-haired man dressed in a traditional robe. He seemed to have trouble with his legs and was sitting in a wooden wheelchair. There was also a girl who looked like she was fifteen or sixteen years old, standing next to the man with her eyes closed.
Feng Yu Die could tell at a glance that the gray-haired man should be Li Feng, but looking at the girl’s clothes, she did not look like a maid, but rather like a wealthy lady. She was a little confused as to why the girl had her eyes closed.
Xiao Yunluo entered the pavilion and cupped her hands. "I am Xiao Yunluo. Greetings, Master Li."
"Ah... I am Feng Yu Die... Greetings, Master Li."
Li Feng waved his hand and said with a smile, "Little girl Xiao, don't be so formal. Your mother and I are old friends. If we really want to talk about seniority, I am still your senior brother. You call me Senior Brother Li."
After a moment, Xiao Yunluo respectfully saluted. "Thank you, Senior Brother Li."
Feng Yu Die also said stupidly,"...Thank you, Senior Brother Li."
?
Xiao Yunluo turned her head and glared at her. "Why are you also calling him 'Senior Brother'?"
"Oh..."
Feng Yu Die was startled, then came to her senses and realized that she had just been staring at the girl with her eyes closed next to Li Feng. She quickly changed her words with a silly smile. "Ahaha... Thank you, Master Li. I was just a little curious why the girl next to you kept her eyes closed, so I got distracted..."
"..."
"Oops...I misspoke." Feng Yu Die hurriedly apologized respectfully.
"Don't worry."
Li Feng smiled like a kind father, stroked his beard, and invited the two to sit in the pavilion.
"Well…"
Li Feng looked half helpless and half proud while crying and smiling and explained, "This is Li Longling, my daughter. She is blind."
