A few days later, Xia Ping and Jiang Yaru left Myriad Treasures Island and boarded the Moon God to return to Giant Island.
Because the ship didn't have enough energy, it couldn't activate the space jump. Thus, he could only choose to fly slowly. Nothing happened along the way, and he safely returned to the human-ruled sea.
However, as soon as he landed at the airport of Giant Island and parked the ship, a group of people immediately surrounded him.
Xia Ping looked over and saw four or five kings of the Giant Corporation, a large number of Grandmasters, and even people from the Huo Clan. They all came to him one by one.
After a few days, the news of the five kings and the human king Huo Yongming dying together on Myriad Treasures Island had spread throughout the world. Countless people knew about it, and it shocked the upper echelons of the human race.
They immediately wanted to know the truth of the matter. After all, the death of the kings, and at the hands of a human at that, was an earth-shattering event for the Cloud World.
For the Huo Clan, it was a bolt from the blue. Their ancestor was dead, and their pillar of support had collapsed. This was something they couldn't accept, and they all came to ask for an explanation.
"Xia Ping!"
An elder of the Huo Clan immediately shouted at Xia Ping, "What the hell is going on? Why did our ancestor die on Myriad Treasures Island? Why did he die together with the five kings? Did you do something to it? Confess immediately. "
He asked loudly.
He wouldn't believe the rumor even if he was beaten to death. How could he not know what kind of person his ancestor was? He was definitely not someone who would sacrifice himself for others. If he could survive, the ancestor wouldn't mind sacrificing anyone, including his family.
But now, the ancestor Huo Yongming was willing to sacrifice his own life to protect a human junior, not to mention that Xia Ping was the Huo Clan's enemy.
Which idiot would sacrifice their own life for their enemy? He had never heard of such a thing. Thus, when he received this shocking news, he thought it was a joke.
After confirming it, he went crazy. He felt that there was something fishy about this matter, and there was definitely something shady going on. Otherwise, how could the ancestor of the Huo Clan die on Myriad Treasures Island for no reason?
Of course, the most important thing was that Huo Yongming personally went to Myriad Treasures Island to kill that junior, Xia Ping, and eliminate this scourge.
But who would have thought that the lad would be so lucky that nothing happened to him. Instead, it was the Old Ancestor of his family who died.
However, this was a top secret of the Huo Clan. Only the higher-ups had the right to know about it, and it could not be leaked. Otherwise, the Huo Clan would have no place in the human race.
"I'm sorry. I did kill Mr. Huo this time."
Xia Ping stood with his hands clasped behind his back. He looked up at the sky and sighed. "If it weren't for me, who provoked the five Daemon Kings and allowed them to set up a trap, leading to a fatal attack, Mister Huo probably wouldn't have died at the hands of these Daemon Kings. This is all my fault. I'm very useless. At that time, I also wanted to save Mr. Huo. Unfortunately, I was only a Grandmaster. How could I overturn the heavens in front of the Demon King? "
"As for what you said I did? I can only say that you think too highly of me. Playing tricks in front of a king, aren't you tired of living? Who dares to be presumptuous? "
Everyone nodded. Even though Xia Ping was a human Master, compared to a king, he was still too far away. No tricks could be used in front of a king.
Trying to use some tricks to plot against a king was simply a joke.
"Impossible. Xia Ping, don't play dumb!"
The Huo Clan Elder was furious. He knew the inside story and naturally knew that this b * stard was lying through his teeth. He didn't do anything, but the Huo Clan Elder was willing to sacrifice his life and die with the five Daemon Kings. This was impossible.
"Don't we know what the Huo Clan Elder is capable of? If you wanted to escape, even if the five great Daemon Kings wanted to stop you, they wouldn't be able to. It's impossible for you to die. Furthermore, my Huo Family once had a conflict with you. How could my Patriarch help you? You must have done something. "
He was like a mad dog. He wanted to bite this b * stard to death immediately.
Hearing this, Xia Ping scolded, "What do you know? How can selfish people like you imagine the greatness of Mr. Huo's character? You don't know what you're talking about. You can insult me, but you can't slander Mr. Huo's character.
It's true that I had some misunderstandings with the Huo Clan before. Some small conflicts are known to all. But what kind of person is Mr. Huo? He's a king of the human race. He's a magnanimous person. How could he hate a junior because of such a small thing?
Moreover, in the face of the human race and the demon race, any prejudices can be put aside to fight the enemy together. You narrow-minded people who don't know right from wrong and are afraid of death won't understand this kind of feeling.
Do you think that you're a coward who forgets morality at the sight of profit and thinks that everyone in the world is the same? Don't lower Mr. Huo's moral level to the same level as you shameless people! You don't deserve it at all. "
His spittle flew everywhere.
Many disciples of the Huo Clan were speechless. They didn't know what to say. Refute Xia Ping? But wouldn't that mean that their Elder was a shameless coward who was afraid of death? How could a junior slander their Elder like that? Anyone who heard this would probably be unable to stand it.
They couldn't say such things either.
But they couldn't accept admitting this bastard's words. It was clearly this shameless bastard who secretly played tricks and caused the death of the Huo Clan's Elder. But now, this guy's big mouth said that he didn't have anything to do with it. They couldn't accept this at all. They felt extremely aggrieved.
"Right."
Xia Ping suddenly thought of something and said, "I suddenly remembered something. At that critical moment, Mr. Huo and I quickly established a great friendship. The two of us appreciated each other and couldn't help it.
"Before he died, Mr. Huo told me that if he died, then his property would belong to me in the future. He asked me to inherit the Huo Clan's property, carry on his will, and continue to contribute to the human race.
"Although I felt that I wasn't related to Mr. Huo, how could I inherit his property? But when I thought about it, we're all humans. In the future, we'll have to fight against the demon race. Isn't his property mine?
"So even though I felt that it was a little inappropriate, I still agreed. This was Mr. Huo's wish before he died. I hope that everyone in the Huo Clan won't refuse."
He put on a righteous look, as if his actions were all for the sake of the human race and not for his own personal interests.
