After watching the recording of what happened in Liang Zhu City, Ji Hao remained silent for a while, then packed the Pan Xi divine mirror and returned to the reception hall.
Di Luolang's face was deathly pale. He sat in his chair without moving, trembling slightly. Cold sweat flowed down from his body like water streams. The blood-red long robe worn by him was made from high-quality silk, but it was already soaked in sweat and stuck to his body, making him look quite embarrassed.
"Elder, what's wrong with you?" Ji Hao asked Di Luolang as if he already knew what was wrong.
With Di Luolang's social status, he must have received the news about such a world-shaking event that happened in Liang Zhu City.
Liang Zhu City was almost destroyed. Countless non-humankind beings died, and the portal leading to the original world of the non-humankind was destroyed. The culprit of all this was Dishi Cha, who was born in the Di Family.
Sitting at home, a disaster came from the sky. Di Luolang's frightened look was enough to represent the feelings of all surviving Di Family people at the moment. Who did they offend? How did I end up in such a situation? This was a disaster that could wipe out the entire Di Family in Pan Gu world.
This might even affect their clans in the original world, and cause the Di Family to fall into a huge trouble.
Not to mention anything else, just now, Di Luolang told Ji Hao about the portal connecting Pan Gu world to their original world. The non-humankind spent over ten-thousand years to build this portal, and spent countless precious resources. During the past thousands of years, through this stable portal, the non-humankind had already looted incalculable resources from Pan Gu world.
This portal could even be counted as a major artery of the original world. The original world was nearly drained of resources. Relying on portals like this one to ceaselessly loot resources from other worlds, those non-humankind leaders in the original world were able to live a luxurious life.
Such a major artery was destroyed. One could easily imagine how enraged those true non-humankind leaders would be.
For example, just now, when the divine formation destroyed the swirl of clouds generated from the portal, the owner of the will that suddenly showed up was definitely a powerful figure among the non-humankind. He was able to cross the endless time and space, fight against the will of the great Dao of Pan Gu world, and gather his power into a million-miles-wide giant hand to suppress the portal, which was about to collapse.
Ji Hao couldn't even imagine how powerful he was.
Such a terrifying being had suffered such a great loss in this portal. How could Di Family bear the wrath of him, and the wrath of many other beings who were at the same level as him?
Di Luolang slowly stood up, tremblingly walked to Ji Hao, then deeply bowed to him.
He bent his waist almost to a ninety-degree angle, and the cold sweat on his forehead was dripping down to the ground. The dripping sound was very clear. Looking at Di Luolang, Ji Hao could even sense the despair released from Di Luolang's body.
"Elder Di Luolang, something bad seems to have happened." Ji Hao smilingly looked at Di Luolang and asked, "What on earth can make you, a wise and elegant being, lose your composure like this?"
Looking at Di Luolang, who had fallen into despair and fear, Ji Hao joked, "What are you unhappy about? Why don't you tell me and make me happy?"
Di Luolang raised his head. His face, which used to be handsome and elegant, was now twisted and hideous like a ghost. He gave a few bitter laughs, gnashed his teeth and said, "Dear Earl Yao, are you … willing to accept a little bit of kindness from a lonely old man?"
Ji Hao looked at Di Luolang in surprise and said, "Eh? What do you mean? "
Licking his lips, Di Luolang continued in a trembling voice, "I have a wife whom I love dearly, and I am absolutely loyal to her … I have many lovely lovers, and I have devoted my love to them … I have many beautiful maids, and I care about and love them too … So …" Di Luolang said while trembling.
Ji Hao smiled. "So you have a lot of children?"
Di Luolang bowed deeply once again. This time, he made a ninety-degree bow and said in a deep but powerless voice, "Yes, as wise as you are, nothing can hide from your wise eyes. I have many sons and daughters, and they also have many lovely children. I am not young anymore, and my descendants have been living for seven generations. They all have their own children, and this is a great family. "
Taking a deep breath, Di Luolang kept his bowing posture and said, "I will give you a half of all the wealth I have collected in my whole life, in exchange for your protection for some of my descendants. In a couple of days, I will send them to your territory. "
The hall fell into a deathly silence. Ji Hao stood in front of Di Luolang, swung his arm backward and grabbed a white jade wine bottle, gently rubbing the exquisite dragon patterns on the bottle with his fingers. The jade bottle was smooth and warm, just like Ji Hao's current mood.
"What happened?" Ji Hao asked, "Elder, just now, you told me so many secrets of your noble family, and now, you are asking me to protect your descendants … Something big must have happened, right?"
Di Luolang remained perfectly motionless, and kept his bowing posture the whole time. "Your wisdom has impressed me so much. Indeed, something has happened. Our Di Family might face a great disaster. Right now, I have to make sure that my bloodline can survive. "
He continued in a deep voice, "Just like how the humankind values their descendants, our Yu Clan values the inheritance of our bloodline even more sacred and important."
Remaining silent for a short while, Ji Hao asked, "Are you really so confident that you want me to protect your children?"
Di Luolang gave a hollow laugh and responded in a deep voice, "Compared to our Yu Clan people, I believe in the promises made by the humankind more. I have met you before. Although you are greedy, brutal, and even a little bit shameless, I believe in the promises made by you. "
'Greedy', 'brutal', 'shameless'? Ji Hao sighed helplessly. Was this the impression he gave to the Yu Clan people?
Didn't he just extort some money from them in Chi Ban Mountain, conveniently set up a trap and killed a few elite members of their families? How could this be called greedy and brutal?
"Give me a reason to protect your children." Ji Hao's tone turned deeper and deeper as well, "Give me a reason. We are enemies. I need a reason to protect your children for no reason. "
"Like I said earlier, does killing Dishi Yanluo count?" Di Luolang gave a bitter smile and said, "I haven't given this suggestion yet … But it's not up to me anymore."
Taking a deep breath, Di Luolang raised his head, looked at Ji Hao with a trace of craziness and said, "Do you know? Dishi Cha gave each of the twelve emperors a coordinate of a world. "
"Near Pan Gu world, a primitive world that hasn't been touched by our Yu Clan army yet."
