Chapter 440 Hometown and Emperor Dou

The Xiao family members looked at the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King from afar, with fear and respect in their eyes.

A little child looked at the giant beast in front of him with innocent and pure eyes, and her eyes slowly moved down and placed on the little Purple Crystal Winged Lion King.

"Did Uncle Xiao Zhan just say that they are our guardians and will not hurt us?" She asked an older child.

"Well, the clan leader said so, but... wait, Xiao Qing, come back."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Xiao Qing, who asked her the question, running towards the little Purple Crystal Winged Lion King.

Xiao Qing held a string of candied haws and said to the little Purple Crystal Winged Lion King: "This is for you, play with me, okay?"

The little Purple Crystal Winged Lion King opened his bloody mouth...

... and ate the candied haws.

Then he turned around and walked away, shaking his tail.

Xiao Qing looked at his empty hands, and then looked at the little Purple Crystal Winged Lion King who left indifferently, tears welling up in his eyes.

She felt that she had been deceived, failed to make friends, and lost a candied haws.

The little purple crystal winged lion king with his back to her had a bad smile on his face.

…

After explaining the purple crystal winged lion king to the tribe members, Xiao Zhan followed Wu Meng to the largest stone chamber on the nine-story corridor.

This has always been the residence of the "Xiao family ancestor", and even Xiao Zhan came here for the first time.

"Come with me, there is also a passage leading to the outside world here. If there is any problem with the entrance in front, you can take the tribe members out from here."

Wu Meng opened the door, walked into the stone chamber, and pointed to a closet in front of him.

He stepped forward and twisted a handle on the left side of the closet. With the rumbling sound of the stone door rubbing against the ground, the closet slowly moved away, revealing a passage slightly smaller than the entrance passage of the Xiao family.

Wu Meng slapped the stone wall next to him, inputting Dou Qi, and the moonstones became brighter, illuminating the passage.

The moonstones in this passage are also smaller than those in the main entrance passage, and the light is darker. But he could also see the surrounding stone walls and the road under his feet.

Wu Meng said as he walked: "It's time to take you to meet our ally, Amon."

Xiao Zhan repeated the name: "Amon..."

Wu Meng, who looked like "Xiao Yuanshan", nodded and said softly: "Well, he is the patriarch of the Amon clan. Hundreds of years ago, when I found him, he was seriously injured and I saved him.

"After that, he formed an alliance with me. His injuries have basically recovered now... but it will take some time for his strength to recover.

"As for the common interests of the alliance, the goals of both parties, and the obligations they undertake, I will tell you in detail when I meet him."

This passage seemed to be particularly long. They walked about hundreds of meters and still did not reach the end.

After a few minutes, finally, a ray of light appeared in front of them, which was particularly dazzling compared to the slightly dim fluorescence of the moonstone.

After walking out of the tunnel, Xiao Zhan squinted his eyes and raised the back of his hand to block the dazzling sunlight.

He looked around and found that there was an open plain in front of him. On one side, near the mountain wall, there was a stone house.

The towering columns and round domes were the first time Xiao Zhan had seen such a strange-looking building. He was a little surprised.

Following Wu Meng into the stone house, the first thing that caught his eye was a huge sculpture.

The sculpture depicted a person wearing a cold mask and a robe, but the strange thing was that under the robe, tentacles with complicated patterns stretched out.

Even if you just look at the stone statue, you can feel the coldness, evil, and madness of the things it carved.

Such a feeling made Xiao Zhan more vigilant. This person called Amon didn't seem to be a normal guy.

He looked at the surrounding walls again, which were carved with various murals. There were giant wolves with eight legs, towers rising from the ground, dragons flying in the air, lightning, storms, suns and other abstract symbols full of symbolic meanings...

This is a stone house, which seems to be a place like a clan ancestral hall.

"Amon, are you there?" Wu Meng asked softly.

A young man with a pointed hat, black eyes, black hair, a high nose bridge, and thin lips walked out from behind the statue.

His hair was slightly curly, and he wore a crystal monocle on his right eye. He wore a classic black robe and boots of the same color.

This Amon walked out with a look as innocent as a baby, and gave people a sense of clarity and stupidity.

He smiled warmly and whispered to the two of them: "Are you here to get the spirit worm?"

Xiao Zhan showed a trace of doubt: "Spirit worm? What is this?"

Wu Meng shook his head and said: "Let's talk about that later. This is the patriarch of our Xiao clan. Let me clarify the covenant with you."

"Okay, sit down." Amon took out the meditation cushion and sat down first.

Xiao Zhan looked at Amon. He always felt that this young man gave people a feeling of being out of place, as if... not human.

He remembered the day when the ancestor Xiao Yuanshan first appeared in front of him. The strange man who kept the Xiao family in his place also said that Amon was not a human and could be regarded as a kind of magical beast... What does it mean to regard him as a magical beast? Could it be that they are not magical beasts?

Xiao Yuanshan sat down, and Xiao Zhan also sat on a futon.

Amon said to Xiao Zhan: "Hello, Xiao Family Leader, I am Amon, the leader of the Amon clan. The purpose of my alliance with you is to go home."

"Ah?" Xiao Zhan was stunned. What is the reason?

He looked at Wu Meng blankly, and the latter said lightly: "You will know if you listen to it."

Amon still had a gentle smile on his face, but his tone was a little sad:

"I am just a wandering traveler. I long to return to my hometown. That is where I was born and raised. It is the sustenance of my spirit and soul... But I can't go back. I have no way to go back with my own abilities. So I need an ally who can help me return to my hometown.

"In this universe, there are many planes, and each plane is like an island in the sea, or an oasis in the desert. If you want to cross an oasis to reach another oasis, you need to face great danger. If your strength does not reach a certain level, you cannot make this journey.

"Aren't you curious? Where did all those Doudi from ancient times go? With their great power, it's impossible that they all died?"

Xiao Zhan thought of a possibility, his eyes were filled with horror, "Could it be..."

Amon nodded: "Yes, they broke through the boundary, left this Douqi plane, and went to another plane. My hometown is a plane called 'Daqian World'... I hope there is someone strong enough to take me there.

"Yuanshan said that your Xiao family's ancestors had Doudi, so I think it is more likely that a Doudi will be born in your family...

"The main content of our covenant is that I support your Xiao family, help someone among you become a Doudi, and then he will send me back to my hometown."

Xiao Zhan showed a blank and unbelievable expression: "Ah?"

He looked at Amon and saw that the other party didn't seem to be joking, and then looked at "Ancestor Xiao Yuanshan", and felt it was absurd for a while.

Are you sure you are not kidding me? In order to return to your hometown, you support the birth of a Doudi in our family?
