Prince Zhong Li's voice was low and heavy. There was a tinge of anger in his tone.
As he spoke, Ji Tianxing and Yan 'er finally understood what had happened thirty years ago.
"Back then, Huo Yan was the High Priest of the Fire Tribe. He had a noble status and a high position.
He had been a priest for twenty years. In the first ten years, he had been fair and honest. He was highly valued by the Fire Emperor.
However, he was bewitched by a woman from the Changli Tribe and married her. He became more and more arrogant and selfish.
The Changli woman had planned for many years. During the Autumn Fire Banquet thirty-five years ago, she took the opportunity to sneak into the Fire God Palace. She killed many guards and stole the Fire God Crystal.
After that, the Fire Emperor chased after her for a few hundred miles and brought her back with the Fire God Crystal. "
Yan 'er widened his eyes in shock and asked curiously, "Third Uncle, isn't the Changli Tribe our sworn enemy?
Could it be that the hatred between us and the Changli Tribe started from that time? "
Prince Zhong Li shook his head and explained, "Yan 'er, you're too young. You don't know what happened back then.
In fact, before that, the Fire Tribe and the Changli Tribe had been fighting for more than a hundred years.
The Changli woman was actually the Seventh Princess of the Changli Tribe. She was ordered to get close to the High Priest Huo Yan to steal the Fire God Crystal. "
Yan 'er nodded and said angrily, "The Fire God Crystal is the sacred item of the Fire Tribe. It's also the treasure that maintains the safety of millions of people.
The Seventh Princess of the Changli Tribe stole our Fire God Crystal. How despicable! "
Prince Zhong Li nodded his head slightly and continued, "The Fire Emperor captured the seventh princess of the Changli Race and brought her back to the city. He executed her in front of everyone according to the laws of our race.
However, the Fire Emperor was righteous and merciful. He showed mercy to the High Priest Huo Yan and did not pursue his crime.
However, Huo Yan was obsessed and held a grudge against the Fire Emperor. He believed that the Fire Emperor had killed his wife.
In the five years after that, Huo Yan used all kinds of despicable methods to steal our resources and treasures.
Later, he actually wanted to steal the Fire God Crystal and the Nine Flames Spiritual Vein to avenge his dead wife. "
Hearing this, Yan 'er's heart jumped. She worriedly asked, "Third Uncle, what happened after that? What happened this time? "
Prince Zhong Li patted his head and said with a complicated expression, "After the Seventh Princess stole the Fire God Crystal, the Fire Emperor strengthened the defenses of the Fire God Palace to protect the Fire God Crystal.
High Priest Huo Yan failed to steal the Fire God Crystal, but he killed many guards and maids, and even injured two fire generals.
Later on, when he realized that his plan had failed and his whereabouts had been exposed, he decided to snatch the Nine Flames Spiritual Vein at all costs.
In order to obtain the Nine Flames Spiritual Vein, he had already prepared for many years, and his plan was very thorough.
By the time I arrived at the Nine Flames Mountain Range with the Fire Generals and guards, Huo Yan had already succeeded and caused a tragedy.
The Nine Flames Spirit Vein was taken away, and the Nine Flames Mountain Range collapsed on the spot. The mountains and rivers within a hundred miles were all shattered, and nine villages were destroyed. Over ten thousand civilians were affected.
In that battle, more than four thousand Fire Race people died, and more than five thousand were injured.
Although the Fire Emperor personally took action in the end and captured High Priest Huo Yan, our people suffered heavy casualties, and blood flowed like a river. "
Yan 'er clenched her fists and cursed angrily, "Damn Huo Yan, he is so despicable and cruel. He deserves to die!"
Prince Zhong Li nodded and continued, "The Fire Emperor captured Huo Yan and brought him back to the city, where he was publicly judged for his crimes.
The civilians and the relatives of the Imperial Family hated Huo Yan to the core, and they all asked the Fire Emperor to cut his flesh to pay back his blood. They wanted Huo Yan to use his flesh and blood to atone for his sins to the ancestors, and to repay the kindness of the Fire Race.
The Fire Emperor ordered to cut his flesh to pay back his blood. However, Huo Yan had already cultivated a secret technique and turned the Nine Flames Spiritual Vein into a Nine Flames Spiritual Snake, which merged with his body.
After the torture, Huo Yan lost his left arm and right leg, but he still had half of his blood left. Luckily, he didn't die.
The Fire Emperor followed the rules set by the ancestors and expelled Huo Yan from the Fire Race, never to step into the Fire Race again.
Since then, Huo Yan disappeared and hasn't appeared for thirty years. I didn't expect him to be hiding in Central State City … "
After listening to Prince Zhong Li's explanation, Ji Tianxing and Yan 'er finally understood the whole story.
Yan 'er said in a low voice, "Huo Yan, that hateful bastard, killed so many people, he really deserves to die!"
Ji Tianxing also said with a dignified expression, "No wonder Huo Yan claimed that he had a grudge against Yan 'er and tried to capture him."
Prince Zhong Li nodded and said, "Huo Yan hated our Fire Race to the core, but he could never step into the Fire Race, nor did he have the strength to return to the Fire Race for revenge.
Therefore, he turned his target to Yan 'er, wanting to murder Yan' er for revenge.
But I don't understand, Yan 'er was born twenty years after that incident, how did Huo Yan know Yan' er's identity? "
Ji Tianxing's eyes flashed with a cold light, and said in a cold voice, "The person who captured Yan 'er was an assassin from the Duanmu Family's Soul Shepherd Hall. Huo Yan colluded with the Duanmu Family."
"Duanmu Family?" Prince Zhong Li frowned, his eyes becoming more and more dignified.
"That bastard Huo Yan, he actually found the Duanmu Family as his backer? I'm afraid this is going to be troublesome. "
Yan 'er hurriedly advised, "Third Uncle, the Duanmu Family is very powerful and has as many experts as the clouds, they are not something we can deal with.
Moreover, Senior Brother Tianxing destroyed the Duanmu Family's herb garden half a month ago, causing the Duanmu Family's vitality to be greatly damaged.
Now that the situation in Central State is chaotic, the Duanmu Family is in a desperate situation and is crazily fighting back, wanting to find Senior Brother Tianxing for revenge. "
"Oh? There is such a thing? "Prince Zhong Li revealed a shocked expression and looked at Ji Tianxing in disbelief.
"Master, this is the first time this Prince has come to Central State City, so I don't know the situation in the city. Can Master explain to this Prince?"
Ji Tianxing naturally would not refuse, and gave Prince Zhong Li a rough introduction of the situation in Central State City.
After fifteen minutes, when he finished, Prince Zhong Li frowned and pondered for a moment, then made up his mind.
"Huo Yan's strength has dropped to the fifth level of Sky Origin Stage, and he is an old lunatic with broken limbs, so he is not of much use to the Duanmu Family.
This Prince dares to conclude that even if Huo Yan is in cahoots with the Duanmu Family, he is not a core member, so the power he can use is limited.
Now that the Duanmu Family is in a desperate situation and can't even protect themselves, it is the best time for us to capture Huo Yan. "
Ji Tianxing thought for a moment and agreed, "That's right, the Duanmu Family is busy dealing with the other forces, their main target is me.
Prince Zhong Li and the two Fire Generals have just come to Central State City, so the Duanmu Family will not target you, so it is convenient for you to act.
However, if you want to find Huo Yan in this big Central State City, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack, I'm afraid you won't be able to find him in a short period of time. "
Speaking of this problem, Prince Zhong Li revealed a confident smile and waved his hand, "Master, don't worry, this time this Prince came to Central State, I brought a Fire Tribe treasure.
