Out of curiosity, he secretly followed them.
The Blood Dragon Tower is located in a very remote place.
This place is sparsely populated and desolate. The sky is always low, with rolling dark clouds, making it look exceptionally gloomy and terrifying.
The Blood Dragon Tower is twenty stories high, towering into the clouds. Its body is blackish-purple, and it is unknown what material it was made of. It exudes a suffocating, imprisoning energy.
The head guard escorted the old man into the tower.
The tower gates swung open, and before the old man stepped into the endless darkness, he suddenly turned back and glanced at Xie Feng!
His gaze was weathered and complex, as if he had something to say!
Whether it was a trick of the eye or not, Xie Feng seemed to see a flash of silver light between the old man's brows at that moment!
At the same time.
Xie Feng felt a burning sensation between his brows!
He was immediately taken aback!
He knew very well what was hidden between his brows.
Chaos Markings!
If an elderly person also has Chaos Markings face, does that mean they share the same lineage as you?
"What on earth is going on...?"
Xie Feng murmured, eager to know the old man's identity!
Soon, the captain of the guard and two soldiers came out again.
There are no elderly people.
This indicates that the old man has already been imprisoned.
After the three left, Xie Feng silently slipped inside.
Because of his superior strength, no one could detect him despite the guards around the tower.
To avoid attracting attention, he specially changed into a black robe with a cloak, pulling down the cloak's hood to cover most of his face, remaining mysterious and silent.
Inside the tower, it was even darker and damper, with water constantly flowing down from above, making eerie sounds.
Tick-tock...
Tick-tock...
The Blood Dragon Tower, shrouded in utter silence, is chilling.
Xie Feng went up from the first floor, walked to the end, and there was no way forward.
He continued his search and finally found a special passage in a secluded corner.
This is an upward passage, with a floating white stone slab in the center.
Xie Feng stepped onto the stone slab, and the slab automatically slid upwards!
As he ascended, he saw the scene on each level. Centered on a stone slab, each level of the tower was an iron prison, where many people were imprisoned like wild beasts.
What puzzled Xie Feng was that these people had normal physical postures and expressions; they looked like very ordinary people.
Logically speaking, the Blood Dragon Tower is a prison, and prisons should hold the most vicious criminals.
The people locked up here have absolutely nothing to do with the criminals.
Just an ordinary person!
Or perhaps they were just ordinary Divine Dragon Clan.
There wasn't even a trace of their presence, not a hint of killing intent.
Xie Feng found it strange, but now was not the time to be strange.
Soon, he reached the top of the tower. It was different here; it was no longer a drafty prison, but a room with its own walls, doors, and windows.
The stone slab stopped here.
Xie Feng jumped to the twentieth floor, where he found himself in a gloomy corridor.
At the end of the corridor, there is a room.
Here, he sensed the old man's presence.
Xie Feng didn't think much of it, wrapped his black robe tighter, and strode forward.
The prison cell door was closed, with a round window above it. Xie Feng looked inside through the window.
The old man was indeed inside!
He was still wrapped in that tattered felt, lying on the dirty, damp ground, facing the wall, motionless like an old monk in meditation.
Xie Feng's eyes darkened. Seeing the lock on the door, he flicked his finger, and a wisp of Northern Nether Heaven-Subduing Fire ignited, melting the lock.
Thud!
The broken lock lay on the ground.
Xie Feng pushed him away easily.
The old man was also startled. He looked at the uninvited guest who had barged in, and seemed to be startled. His eyes immediately showed obvious wariness.
"Grandpa, I meant no harm, don't be nervous."
Xie Feng spoke, he reached up and lifted his hat, revealing his face.
He gave a friendly smile.
The old man stared at him, his eyes narrowing slightly, his gaze clouded and unfathomable.
Xie Feng lowered his voice. "Old man, do you know me?"
The old man stared at him for a while, then shook his head vigorously, his voice hoarse and cracked. "I don't know you! Who are you, kid?!"
Xie Feng's expression remained unchanged as he calmly asked, "I want to know the lines on your forehead!"
Upon hearing this, the old man frowned deeply, pursed his lips, and said, "I don't understand what you're talking about!"
Xie Feng looked at him, unsure whether he was genuinely feigning madness or just pretending to be stupid. He asked repeatedly, but the old man simply kept his mouth shut and refused to speak. Soon, he appeared to be drowsy.
"I want to know why those people wanted to capture you, who you are, why you're imprisoned on the top floor of the Blood Dragon Tower, and..."
Xie Feng had no choice but to change tactics, turning his head to look at the small but fully equipped room, "Judging from your treatment, you don't seem like an ordinary person."
The old man's lips moved, and suddenly he grinned.
The laughter started from silence, gradually increased, and finally culminated in clapping and wild laughter!
"Hahaha! Hahaha! Haha... haha... ha... ha... ha..."
He laughed wildly, laughing so hard he was pounding the wall, laughing until he couldn't breathe.
Hahaha!... Ha... Cough cough...
suddenly!
His face was ashen, he knelt on the ground, his eyes rolled back, and he gripped his neck tightly with both hands!
He laughed so hard he almost passed out!
Xie Feng frowned. This old man, whether he was faking it or not, was behaving so strangely!
He increasingly felt that this old man definitely had a story to tell.
He approached the old man and casually took out two pills, handing them to him.
The old man caught a glimpse of it out of the corner of his eye and hesitated for a moment.
"It's not poisonous, you can eat it without worry!"
Xie Feng stared at him and said calmly.
The old man took it, threw it into his mouth, and as soon as the pill went down, he collapsed to the ground with a thud, unconscious!
Xie Feng's expression changed slightly, and he took half a step back. "You old man, don't try to scam me! This is clean healing medicine!"
The old man remained motionless.
Just then, a thin arm reached out and grabbed Xie Feng.
Xie Feng turned around and saw Princess Zilong!
She pulled Xie Feng outside the cell, and when she saw the broken lock at her feet, she raised an eyebrow.
Xie Feng coughed lightly, "Ahem, I'm sorry, I broke it. I'll pay for it."
Princess Zilong smiled slightly, took out a new lock and replaced it. Then she turned around gracefully, her bright eyes lifting slightly. "I'm very curious, Young Master Xie, why did you come to the Blood Dragon Tower? Do you know what this place is?"
Xie Feng shook his head. "I don't know."
Princess Zilong said, " The Blood Dragon Tower is the highest prison in our Divine Dragon Plains! It only holds the most vicious criminals!"
"Really? When I arrived, the other people inside the tower didn't seem particularly vicious."
"These people are indeed not bad people."
"Then why are they being imprisoned?"
"Because... I'm sorry, this involves our secrets, and it's not convenient to talk about it."
Princess Zilong smiled apologetically.
