Chapter 844: Azure Dragon Mountain (4)
“There’s no choice! If not for that, they would have been jointly eliminated by the various large factions long ago. And it’s said that there’s a reason for such a rule,” the little old man kept everyone in suspense and said.
“What reason?” Sure enough, Feng Da and the others were all curious.
“Because of the resources of Azure Dragon Mountain. La.s.s, you should know that there are countless natural treasures in high mountains, forests, and other places, right?” the little old man asked Leng Ruoxue.
“Yes, heavenly treasures like such places as long as the conditions for growth are suitable,” Leng Ruoxue agreed.
“There are many natural treasures in the inner circle of this Azure Dragon Mountain, and it once made the various major forces envious. Legend has it that a long time ago, the Azure Dragon Mountain was occupied by a peerless expert, and those forces that coveted the resources of the Azure Dragon Mountain were fiercely taught a lesson by that peerless expert, and he asked them to swear that they would never invade the Azure Dragon Mountain.”
“Of course, that expert also agreed to let them enter the Azure Dragon Mountain to search for treasures and explore. However, they have to follow the rules of the Azure Dragon Mountain. As for the bandits in the Azure Dragon Mountain now, they should be the subordinates and descendants of that expert at that time. For tens of thousands of years, they have been slowly developing and growing with the Azure Dragon Mountain as their back. However, they rarely leave the Azure Dragon Mountain.” The little old man slowly explained the history of the Azure Dragon Mountain.
“This legend has been around for a few years.Even lthough it’s impossible to verify its authenticity, from the various factions’ att.i.tude towards Azure Dragon Mountain, it should be true,” the little old man added.
“Since that expert is so powerful, why did he agree to let them enter Azure Dragon Mountain after teaching the various major factions a lesson?” Lü Tao could not help asking.
“Hehe! Lü Tao is inexperienced, so she naturally doesn’t understand the twists and turns between the forces.”
“That powerhouse might be very powerful, but if he doesn’t have a descendant who’s as powerful as him, when he leaves this world, his descendant will similarly be unable to protect the resources of Azure Dragon Mountain. Instead, there will be a disaster. Therefore, after he taught the various major forces a lesson and made them swear an oath, he naturally has to give them some benefits. Otherwise, let those forces bear a grudge in their hearts. In the future, how can his descendants and subordinates walk on the Boundless Heaven Continent! They can’t always not leave Azure Dragon Mountain, right? If one day, Azure Dragon Mountain’s resources are exhausted, won’t his descendants and subordinates starve to death!” the little old man explained with a chuckle.
“However, after so many years, the resources in the Azure Dragon Mountain have long been inferior to before, so the various major forces are not as interested in the Azure Dragon Mountain as before,” the little old man said.
“Oh, Grandpa Du, how many entrances are there in this Azure Dragon Mountain?” Leng Ruoxue asked.
“One can only enter from there,” the little old man said with a smile.
“Then let’s go in! Let’s find a place with fewer people in the inner circle to focus on seclusion,” Leng Ruoxue said after some thought.
“Hehe! La.s.s, you have to be careful of the bandits on the Azure Dragon Mountain when you enter the inner circle! If you encounter bandits in the inner circle, they will rob you until you only have your underwear left!” the little old man reminded.
“Oh! They still have some humanity. At least they didn’t let others be naked,” Leng Ruoxue praised. If she was a robber here, she would make the person robbed lose even their underwear.
“Uh!” Hearing Leng Ruoxue’s words, everyone couldn’t help but break out in cold sweat.
“Little Peac.o.c.k, land! Let’s go in,” Leng Ruoxue ordered, ignoring everyone’s expressions.
“Yes, Miss.” The little peac.o.c.k obediently descended from the sky. It landed at the entrance of Azure Dragon Mountain.
Leng Ruoxue and the others jumped down from the little peac.o.c.k’s back. The two guards sitting at the entrance of Azure Dragon Mountain raised their eyes and looked at them before continuing what they were doing.
“We are going into the mountain.” Leng Ruoxue said bluntly after seeing the two guards’reactions.
“Ten amethyst coins per person, including beast beasts.” A guard said lightly.
“What? Beasts also need money?” Feng Da said in disbelief. These people were indeed bandits! They actually earned the money of beasts. He felt that he had been to many cities, but he had never seen a city that accepted beast fees!
“We can choose not to hand over the beast, but we can’t use it in the mountain either,” a guard explained.
“Oh! This is 2,000 amethyst coins to buy 200 spots.” Leng Ruoxue generously took out 2,000 amethyst coins and handed it to the guard at the door.
“This is the first time I’ve seen you so generous as to enter the mountain! Seeing that you’re so straightforward, I’ll make the decision to give you an additional twenty spots,” the guard said very generously and handed Leng Ruoxue a card. At the same time, that was the proof of their fee.
“Thank you.” Leng Ruoxue smiled. The entrance fee here was nothing compared to Shadow City.
After speaking, Leng Ruoxue led everyone into Azure Dragon Mountain…
