Chapter 224: Gone

"It's him! Liu Xuefeng finally descended!"

Xuefeng already expected cries and cheers the moment he left the Dragon Tower but the colossal number of people crowded inside the base floor was overwhelming. To make it even worse, he could guess all of them were some kind of important figures as none of them was below Celestial Stage.

He spotted Sect Master Liu as well who was already approaching him with tens of experts following after him. Xuefeng didn't care about them one bit. His gaze was scanning the crowds for the only people that mattered to him.

His wives.

He couldn't find them no matter how much he searched but before he could ask, he heard a sweet voice of Tianshi in his mind.

'Baby, we are waiting for you in our flying ship. There were too many people there so we left first.'

'Alright, I will be there in a second,' Xuefeng replied as he walked down from the podium. The whole base floor was packed with people but he was determined to leave, walking straight at them.

They split apart, giving him the way when a young couple stepped forward and blocked his way. The man had a weird single blue horn in addition to flaming-red hair. It was obvious he was a Beast in his human form as scales covered his arms and neck.

While he acted cool and collected, his woman seemed stressed as she clutched onto his hand. The crowd immediately brightened as if the ultimate confrontation was about to happen.

"Is Sir Morgan going to challenge him?!"

"Are they going to fight for the top spot on the Dragon Steps?"

Xuefeng heard the gossips from the crowd and couldn't care less. The only purpose of Dragon Steps was to flex and spread his popularity. By beating the Dragon Tower, he was already popular enough where Dragon Steps weren't even needed.

"Move aside," Xuefeng ordered as he passed them but the man blocked his way again.

"Wait, I'm not trying to challenge you. I just want to be friends. My name is—"

"I don't care what your name is," Xuefeng replied coldly. "If you don't move aside I will move you on my own."

Xuefeng already had his wives to think about and didn't need a friend to worry about. There was already enough on his plate.

He was about to break through but Sect Master Liu finally reached him from behind.

"Xuefeng. Stop and tell us about the Dragon Tower. What did you find at the top?" Sect Master Liu questioned. "What Artefact did you create from the Cursed Fragments?"

His words created silence. Everyone wanted to know the same thing: What was hiding at the legendary Top of the Dragon Tower?

Too bad, Xuefeng didn't have any plans on entertaining them.

"And why should I expose my secrets to the whole world?" Xuefeng asked with an eye roll. "Whatever was on the top floor, I have it now. Even if someone repeats my feat, they will only find an empty floor so it doesn't matter what it was. I would like to keep it a secret."

His response naturally caused a commotion. The whole Sect was gathered in anticipation to learn the secrets of the Dragon Tower and Xuefeng refused to give them anything.

"Xuefeng, you know you can't do that," Sect Master Liu replied sternly. "It was House of Dragons that allowed you to step in the Dragon Tower. Before entering, you signed an agreement that states you have to report what you took away from it. I don't want any trouble so just answer my questions."

"And what if I don't?" Xuefeng asked casually as he rolled up his sleeve, revealing his Elemental Bracelet. Immediately the people closest to him backed away, not wanting to be the first to be hit in case a fight broke out.

Xuefeng's feat of climbing to the top of Dragon Tower was enough to prove his strength. Even if he was just a God Stage cultivator, his power exceeded their own.

"I already said I don't want any trouble. Are you trying to set the whole Sect against you? Everyone is waiting for the news. Do you want me to go out and tell the whole Sect you refused to reveal anything? We would be lucky if the ruckus would stop at curses," Sect Master Liu said. "If I was in your place I would also prefer to keep this information private but you are too high-profile now. You have to give us something."

"Alright then," Xuefeng finally nodded. "I'm willing to compromise and reveal the truth about the Dragon Tower but firstly, I will meet with my wives. Only after that, I will give the speech outside to everyone."

He couldn't expose his possession of the Cube but maybe he could share the origin of the Dragon Tower. If anyone learned he had a multi-realm teleportation device, he would immediately become a number one hunted cultivator in the world of cultivation.

Maybe it wasn't as useful to a solo cultivator but the top Sects from the God Realm would do anything to have it. Who wouldn't kill for a chance to enter the Ancient Realm or even the Fate Kingdom? The possibilities were endless.

Xuefeng was ready to leave after his decision but Sect Master Liu wasn't exactly satisfied with it.

"No, do it here. We don't know how sensitive your information is. Only the core members of our Sect are around here," Sect Master Liu suggested. "Once we know the information is safe, we can announce it to the public."

"Haha," Xuefeng laughed as he walked towards the exit. "I already decided. If you think you can stop me from leaving then you overestimate your strength."

The core Disciples and Elders looked at Sect Master Liu for the action plan but he shook his head. "Let him go. Let's see what he has to say."

Xuefeng knew Sect Master Liu couldn't risk an all-out battle in such a crowded and tight place. Especially knowing Xuefeng had the power to potentially win.

"It's Xuefeng! He came out!"

Cheers resounded the moment Xuefeng left but he quickly teleported away, appearing back in their Flying Ship. He couldn't do so earlier as the Dragon Tower had its space locked.

"Xuefeng!" Yiren was the first to yell out his name and jump into his embrace. The rest followed suit as he suddenly became a human sandwich.

He made sure to give each of them a hug before announcing without any warning. "I know you all have a lot of questions but it is best if we first leave the Capital."

"That will not be easy. The whole area is surrounded by people and Flying Ships. It will take us at least ten minutes before we can break through," Katherine reported. "Are you worried we will be targeted?"

"It's better safe than sorry," Xuefeng replied with a shrug, thinking about his wives' safety as a priority. "Since we are already finished with the Dragon Tower, there is no need to stay here. Let's travel to different Lands and focus on cultivation before we can go to Hell Hole."

His wives nodded eagerly but there was one problem.

"How are we going to sneakily leave?"

Xuefeng thought about his options and suddenly pulled out the Cube.

"I got an idea."

———

"Is he still inside?" Sect Master Liu questioned as he stared at Xuefeng's Flying Ship but before he received a reply, Xuefeng came out.

He smiled and waved to the crowds, bringing out cheers. Only after a moment did they turn silent and finally gave him a stage to speak.

"Everyone, thank you for being here for me. I am sure you are curious how I climbed to the top of the Dragon Tower and to be honest, It wasn't easy," Xuefeng spoke normally but his voice still reached far and wide.

"I almost died multiple times during my climb but I pushed through thanks to my hard work, determination, and of course my wives. I wouldn't be able to do it without them." Xuefeng paused, looking lovingly at the Flying Ship.

"Awww."

Many found it lovely but Sect Master Liu rolled his eyes. He already knew Xuefeng was tricky to deal with and he could already smell something wasn't right.

"I want you to lock the space within the area," Sect Master Liu ordered to the elders. "I don't trust him."

"It was worth it," Xuefeng continued without knowing of the actions behind the scenes. "The pain all over my body and the loss of countless treasures was worth it. I reached the top and created history."

"He is stalling for time…" Sect Master Liu commented when Xuefeng finally reached the main point.

"I am sure you wonder what I found on the top floor and I am going to tell you just that. I found out the Dragon Tower was actually created by the Ancient Race and I even spoke to one of their members who left their Soul fragment."

The words Ancient Race were enough to cause the crowd to buzz with chatter. Many speculated about that fact but they finally had confirmation.

"He told me the truth about the creation of the Ancient Realm but that's all I can tell you. I was asked to sign a Blood Pact before I learned anything. If I say anything, It will kill me so I don't want to risk it. I hope you will forgive me for keeping it to myself," Xuefeng explained calmly, leading to a big disappointment. "Anyway, thanks for listening to my talk. I will rest now."

Before anyone could react, he returned back to the Flying Ship. Sect Master Liu was far from happy. Xuefeng didn't plan to share anything from the very beginning.

"Damn it, follow me. We need to know more," Sect Master Liu cursed as he led the way, storming the Flying Ship with tens of elders. Unfortunately, they were too late.

"Sect Master Liu! They are gone!"
