"Insolent!"

Young Master Xing was furious: "The people in front, some of them are my blood brothers!"

"Yes, I misspoke." Starlight Master immediately apologized.

"It's alright."

Young Master Xing felt somewhat troubled, stood with his hands behind his back, looked at the fishpond beside the two halls, and walked over slowly, softly saying: "Just like these fish, once they are in this pond, they remain here for life, unable to leap out."

"Not necessarily."

Starlight Master also stood up, walked to the railing, and said: "This fishpond of mine is called the Dragon Transformation Pond, and it is stocked with Dragon Fish."

"Oh?" Young Master Xing's eyes were thoughtful.

"The Dragon Fish, it's said, can transform into a dragon."

Starlight Master said calmly: "So, the ones I keep are all Golden Scale Dragon Fish."

"What's the story?"

"Golden scales are not ordinary things in a pond, once they encounter the wind and clouds, they transform into dragons!"

Starlight Master's eyes gleamed, softly saying: "Like me, Starlight, today encountering Young Master Xing is like encountering my wind and clouds. I need only transform for a few years... then I can transform into a dragon and follow Young Master Xing."

Young Master Xing's eyes were deep.

He looked at the Golden Scale Dragon Fish swimming in the pond, with a blazing light in his eyes, and murmured with his hands behind his back: "Golden scales are not ordinary things in a pond? Once they encounter the wind and clouds, they transform into dragons?"

He turned his head and scrutinized Starlight Master, frowning, his gaze deep as he uttered word by word: "I... am your wind and clouds?"

Starlight Master smiled, looking earnestly at Young Master Xing: "From the first day I met Young Master Xing, I went through a moment of life and death; for me, the Starlight before today has already died under Young Master Xing's sword."

Young Master Xing said: "Oh?"

"So, the one living now is a Starlight who has seen the path to Qingyun. This road, I will hold tightly and won't let go."

Starlight Master uttered each word.

Young Master Xing kept his hands behind, his gaze heavy: "Have you already transformed into a dragon?"

"The previous Peak Martial Marquis has transformed into a First Grade King level. I was originally a martial artist, yet upon meeting Young Master Xing, I became a king."

Starlight Master's voice was heavy, yet full of confidence: "Since I can become a king, why can't I transform into a dragon?"

"Well said."

Young Master Xing's eyes gleamed with brilliance.

He said: "However, the words 'wind and clouds' should be mentioned less from now on."

"Ah?"

"Feng Yun, that's my big brother. In the younger generation of Wei Wo Zheng Sect, he is truly the first. Vice Sect Master Yan once praised my elder brother as having leadership talent unmatched by anyone under a hundred in the past ten thousand years."

Young Master Xing said lightly: "If you transformed into a dragon upon encountering wind and clouds... ha, you wouldn't have encountered me."

Starlight Master was momentarily stunned, then chuckled, saying: "I really hadn't thought of that. Perhaps if I encountered the eldest young master, he could seal my cloud outside the door, who can say."

Young Master Xing laughed heartily.

He suddenly turned, staring intently at Starlight Master, and said word by word: "Starlight, you say you want to transform into a dragon with me in the future, do you dare to swear by the Celestial Worm God?!"

This astonishing statement caused the atmosphere to stiffen.

Starlight Master remained silent, looking at Young Master Xing.

It was clear to see he was thinking nervously, weighing gain and loss.

Young Master Xing, on the contrary, felt slightly tense.

His hands were behind his back, a smile on his face.

If Starlight dared to say no, this would be his burial place today.

Starlight Master pondered with difficulty.

Finally, he slowly said: "It is not because Starlight fears death. Just now, the sword strike I received was taken calmly. This point, I need to clarify with Young Master Xing."

Young Master Xing immediately laughed: "I understand what you mean! It's not because you're afraid that if you don't agree, I will kill you that you agree! I understand!"

Starlight nodded heavily: "Young Master Xing, although I, Starlight, am now insignificant, weak, and powerless; like a drifting weed in the wind, a shrimp in the water, subject to others' whims. By rights, I shouldn't make conditions, nor do I have the qualifications."

Young Master Xing smiled: "Speak."

"I only hope that Young Master Xing will... never betray me in the future."

Starlight said with utmost seriousness: "If one day Starlight displeases Young Master Xing, I hope today's sword..."

He raised his hand, pointing to his chest, saying softly: "...can strike again."

Young Master Xing considered for a moment, very seriously saying: "...Alright, I promise you!"

"Thank you!"

Starlight Master thanked, and then knelt towards the north, raising one hand, placing one hand on his chest, and solemnly said: "Celestial Worm God above, today, Starlight, disciple of Wei Wo Zheng Sect, swears to the Celestial Worm God, to henceforth be loyal to Feng Xing, Young Master Xing. Through countless trials and hardships, my resolve shall not waver, in life and death, I will never turn back. If I violate this oath, may the Celestial Worm God bring divine punishment, and let the Five Spirits shatter, resulting in death."

An ancient will, faint and untraceable, descended.

Starlight Master felt a sensation within, the Five Spirits Gu moved slightly.

Evidently, something had been received.

He inwardly snorted, deciding to go back and practice the Five Spirits Gu eighty times today.

Celestial Worm God? What kind of thing is that?

Starlight Master completed his oath, solemn and severe, with the vow strong to the utmost degree.

Young Master Xing was greatly pleased.

He personally stepped forward, helped him up, patted his shoulder, warmly saying: "Starlight, from now on, you are one of mine."

Starlight Master respectfully said: "I will follow your command, young master."

"No need to be so formal."

Young Master Xing laughed heartily, saying: "You may continue to call me Young Master Xing."

The two looked at each other, and both laughed, giving off a sense of mutual loyalty and friendship.

Young Master Xing took a deep breath, saying: "Starlight, you might not yet know your full potential, nor realize how far your future extends, but I'll tell you something, and you'll understand."

"Hmm?"

"Although your current cultivation is low, I wish to call you my brother in the future. Between us, privately, we will be like brothers."

Young Master Xing patted Starlight Master's shoulder, saying: "You are a follower of Wang Chuyu, believe me, your future lies above the Nine Heavens!"

Young Master Xing's eyes glimmered with indescribable light, looking at the vast sky, saying word by word: "If one day I can... haha, then you, Starlight, will be my Duan Xiyang."
