There were guards that were standing outside this building, but seeing Lin Fan and Xiao Feng, they revealed the same strange look as the guards at the gate.
They didn't even try to search them and just let them pass by, but they were staring at Lin Fan and Xiao Feng the entire time.
It was clear that they had also been informed of what was happening.
Once they made their way into the building, they found that there wasn't anything here other than two rooms. There was a main room that welcomed those that came to this building and then there was an inner room.
Judging by the auras that came from that inner room, that was where the elders of the Dragon Race were waiting.
But to Lin Fan's surprise, the two elders that led them didn't bring them in right away.
Instead, they brought them to the side of the hall and up to a mural that was hanging there. Well, it wasn't a mural, but rather a large stone tablet that was hanging on the wall that had a few words engraved in it.
After they came up to it, the elders didn't say anything as they gestured for Lin Fan to have a look at it.
Lin Fan looked at them with a confused look, but he still went up to read it.
"The Void King will soar through the sky with the sacred beasts, uniting all in the land under him. Only then will this land be free of its shackles and enter new worlds. Only then will the Dragon Race be able to obtain true prosperity."
Lin Fan was even more confused after reading this, but it was clear by the way that the two were looking at him that they were expecting something.
But in the end, Lin Fan didn't have anything to give them.
He didn't understand what was written on this thing in the first place, so there wasn't anything that he could give them.
As for Xiao Feng…he was completely bored of this and was just standing to the side with a blank look on his face.
It was clear that this tablet, this prophecy meant nothing to him.
Seeing that they weren't able to get a reaction out of either Lin Fan or Xiao Feng, the elders waved for the two of them to follow. It was hard to hide their disappointment as they walked in front of them.
They brought Lin Fan and Xiao Feng over to the doors to the main hall and then gave them a second to gather themselves before opening the door.
As soon as the door opened, the pressure that came from within became much stronger than before.
Lin Fan and Xiao Feng looked in to see that there were a bunch of cloaked figures that were currently sitting there inside of this hall.
As for the pressure that they gave off…it was the pressure of the Ruler Realm that Lin Fan was familiar with. This was a pressure that Lin Fan had experience with, so he knew immediately that it was pressure from the Ruler Realm.
But he couldn't help being surprised just how deep the roots of the Dragon Race ran.
After all, there were just too many cloaked figures that were sitting in here.
Not to mention, there were also the elite guards that were in the Ruler Realm.
Lin Fan had felt this from the elite guard that had guided the Azure Dragon Tribe head away.
While Lin Fan didn't know just how many Ruler Realm Experts the Lin Astral Empire had, he was certain that it wasn't as many as the Dragon Race. It was no wonder the Dragon Race was strong enough to be considered a part of the Myriad Races.
As soon as the door opened, countless pairs of eyes fell onto Lin Fan and Xiao Feng.
That included the eyes of the two Great Elders who were sitting at the end of the hall, right in front of the statue.
After being caught off guard by the number of elders there were, Lin Fan turned his attention to the two Great Elders and the statue.
As soon as he saw the statue, he couldn't help being surprised.
That was because he recognized this statue as being the same as the one he had met before. It was another statue of the Dragon God.
So could that mean that there was another fragment of the Dragon God that had been left to take care of the Dragon Race. If that was the case, he wouldn't be surprised since this would seem right.
But when he looked carefully, he found that there was something different about this statue.
Rather, he felt that there was something different about the feeling that this Dragon God statue gave him.
The one that he met before gave him a strange feeling, almost as if it didn't belong to this world. This one in front of him didn't give him that same feeling. In fact, this statue in front of him didn't give him any strange feelings at all.
Once Lin Fan and Xiao Feng were led to stand in the center of the hall, standing right in front of all the elders, one of the Great Elders said, "Successor of the Void God, I'm sure that you're very curious why we summoned you here."
The other Great Elder said, "You should have seen the tablet outside, so you should know about the prophecy. However, that wasn't the only thing that the great Dragon God left us."
Lin Fan knitted his brows when he heard this.
He had already expected this since they wouldn't do this just because of a vague prophecy like that.
It was very likely that the Dragon God had left some kind of instruction for them before ascending.
But what was important was knowing what kind of instructions had been left for them by the Dragon God.
Seeing the look on Lin Fan's face, the two Great Elders both fell silent.
After a long period of silence, the left Great Elder said, "You don't need to look at us with that hostility. I can tell you that we have no intention of opposing you. In fact, we want to help you with your mission."
The right Great Elder nodded as he said, "You should know that this doesn't just involve our Dragon Race, but also the four other sacred beast races."
Lin Fan couldn't help being caught off guard when he heard this.
He had assumed that this was all the work of the Dragon God alone, but it seemed that it was even bigger than he thought.
If it involved multiple races, then it should involve multiple gods…
Then did that mean that it had something to do with his system as well.
As this thought passed through his mind, he couldn't help thinking of what the Dragon God fragment had said.
It said that it didn't know anything about the system, but…it was only a fragment of the Dragon God, so it wasn't as if it knew everything. It was possible that there was something that the real Dragon God knew that it didn't know…
After thinking about this for a bit, Lin Fan sat down where a seat had been left for him and Xiao Feng. After sitting down, he looked at the two Great Elders with a look like he was waiting for them to explain.
Xiao Feng also sat down after seeing Lin Fan sit down, but the look on his face made it clear that he wasn't interested in any of this.
Even if Xiao Feng looked older, he still had the personality of a child after all.
Seeing that Lin Fan was willing to cooperate, the Great Elders felt a bit of relief fill their hearts.
Then the left Great Elder said, "You should know that the prophecy states that the sacred beasts will follow the Void God's successor. This refers to the true descendants of our sacred beast races following you."
The right Great Elder said, "We can see that our true descendant is already following you, which is perfect for us. We hope that you will take care of our race's true descendants."
After saying this, all of the elders, including the Great Elders, gave a slight bow to Lin Fan.
Lin Fan could help being taken aback when he saw this.
He never expected the Dragon Race elders to accept Xiao Feng being his pet that easily.
He had completely expected them to request that he break the contract that he had with Xiao Feng and allow Xiao Feng to return to the Dragon Race.
After a moment of silence, Lin Fan said, "I won't change how I take care of Xiao Feng after this. Nothing will change how I take care of Xiao Feng."
Hearing this, all of the elders gave another bow before both the Great Elders said at the same time, "Thank you."
Then after taking a moment to calm down, the Great Elders continued to move this forward.
The left Great Elder said, "Other than that, we have some other things to discuss with you."
The right Great Elder said, "There are a few things that we need to entrust to you before you leave."
Lin Fan couldn't help raising a brow when he heard this as he looked at the two Great Elders.
The left Great Elder waved his hand and there was a cloaked figure that appeared.
This cloaked figure was one of the elite guards and in their hands was a tray with something on it.
