"Hard to explain?" Tang Zheng said in a deep voice. "Then I'm all ears.
?
”
Xiao Bai was also very interested in this matter. After all, the Bloodthirsty Scepter was his treasure. He was interested in everything related to the scepter.
"Ancestor, hurry up and tell us." Xiao Bai urged.
The ancestor looked at Xiao Bai and nodded. "Yes, Your Majesty."
He paused for a moment to gather his thoughts before continuing.
"The Bloodthirsty Scepter is an ancient treasure from the Realm Beyond Heaven. Moreover, this treasure is closely related to the royal family. The scepter symbolizes power. Since ancient times, it has always been the symbol of the royal family. However, many years ago, a tyrant appeared in the royal family. He was addicted to killing. The scepter was stained with the blood of countless people and became the Bloodthirsty Scepter. It went from being a divine weapon that symbolized power and the royal family to being an ominous item. "
Everyone was attracted to the Bloodthirsty Scepter. They didn't expect there to be so many unknown stories about it.
Although Xiao Bai had inherited the royal family's memories, he didn't have any memories of the Bloodthirsty Scepter. From this, it could be seen that not everyone in the royal family knew about the Bloodthirsty Scepter.
The ancestor was well-read. He had a deep understanding of the history and origins of the Realm Beyond Heaven and the royal family. That was why he knew about this matter.
Later on, perhaps because the tyrant had killed too many people, he didn't live for long. After the new Emperor ascended the throne, he sealed the Bloodthirsty Scepter. From then on, the Bloodthirsty Scepter's whereabouts became a mystery.
The new Emperor worked hard to bring peace to the world. He changed the face of the royal family, and the royal family prospered again.
After the death of the new Emperor, the Bloodthirsty Scepter truly disappeared. No one knew where it went.
Although the Bloodthirsty Scepter was an ominous item, it was still a divine weapon. There was no need to doubt its power. Moreover, that tyrant's pursuit of power had reached a crazy level. He refined the Bloodthirsty Scepter many times, increasing its power again and again.
No matter who obtained the Bloodthirsty Scepter, they would be able to stir up the world.
The ancestor sighed. "I wonder if that traitor really knew that the Bloodthirsty Scepter was here or if it was just a coincidence."
"No!" Tang Zheng shook his head. "From your words, I can conclude that the traitor must be a man who is obsessed with power. If he knew that the Bloodthirsty Scepter was here, he would have found it no matter what. How could he miss such a great opportunity?"
The Ancestor's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but look at Tang Zheng a few more times. He thought to himself that this kid's mind was really meticulous, and he actually guessed it so accurately.
This was also the old ancestor's judgment. All of this was probably just a coincidence.
"If the late Emperor knew that the Bloodthirst Scepter was buried here, he probably wouldn't have gone through so much trouble to search for the treasure."
Although the Bloodthirsty Scepter could be of great help, it was also very dangerous. The late emperor would not take such a huge risk to let the Bloodthirsty Scepter see the light of day again.
"You said that the Bloodthirsty Scepter is an ominous item. What ominous sign does it have?" Tang Zheng felt that this was the key to the problem. Since what was done couldn't be undone, it was best to understand what kind of danger the Bloodthirsty Scepter would cause. It was better to take precautions before it happened.
The Ancestor's gaze fell upon the Bloodthirsty Scepter, and he couldn't hide the fear in his eyes. "The Bloodthirsty Scepter will devour its owner and turn him into a ruthless person. In fact, he might even become … a tyrant."
He looked at Xiao Bai with worry.
Xiao Bai felt a chill in his heart. He embarrassedly said, "Ancestor, don't look at me like that. I'm not a tyrant."
"Your Majesty, you're not a tyrant now, but if you come into contact with the Bloodthirsty Scepter for too long, you'll be infected by its ferocity. Then you'll become a tyrant as well."
This was what the Ancestor was most worried about.
He didn't want another tyrant to appear in the royal family. A tyrant wouldn't be able to unite the people's hearts, and he wouldn't be able to take back Sky Beyond Sky from the hands of the traitor's descendant and restore the royal family's former glory.
Seeing that the Ancestor didn't believe him, Xiao Bai raised his hand and swore, "I, Xiao Bai, swear today that if I become a tyrant in the future, no, a ruthless person, then I won't need anyone to deal with me. I'll end my own life first. Everyone here can bear witness to this."
Xiao Bai made a solemn vow, but it couldn't dispel the Ancestor's deep worry.
Tang Zheng pondered for a long time, then said, "A treasure is a treasure after all. Xiao Bai is its owner. If the owner can't control the treasure, then is he still the owner? Also, I believe that Xiao Bai won't be affected by the Bloodthirsty Scepter and become a tyrant. Also, with me here, I won't let this happen. "
The Ancestor glanced at him and didn't say a word. It was obvious that he didn't believe his words.
Tang Zheng didn't care. He didn't care whether the Ancestor believed him or not. He would keep his promise.
The most important thing was that he believed in Xiao Bai.
With the two of them working together, he didn't believe that they wouldn't be able to deal with the Bloodthirsty Scepter.
Xiao Bai looked gratefully at Tang Zheng and said with a smile, "Master still understands me the best."
Tang Zheng squeezed out a faint smile and said, "Ancestor, since the Bloodthirsty Scepter is so dangerous, why can it also cure poisons?"
"This is the other use of the Bloodthirsty Scepter. Back then, that tyrant was also a poison expert, but he wasn't limited to that. He also knew how to cure poisons. Moreover, he added a powerful function to the Bloodthirsty Scepter, and that's detoxification. The Bloodthirsty Scepter can cure almost all poisons. "The Ancestor sighed, seemingly amazed by the tyrant's generosity back then.
Cure all poisons?
Tang Zheng sucked in a breath of cold air. This was too powerful. It sounded like bragging, but the truth was right in front of him. He couldn't doubt it at all.
With such a divine weapon, he wouldn't have to worry about being poisoned in the future.
If the Imperial Family back then had the Bloodthirsty Scepter, they wouldn't have to fear the poison of the traitor. History would also be rewritten.
"In that case, the Bloodthirsty Scepter isn't completely useless. At least it can cure poisons. In the future, when we meet that traitor's descendant, we won't have to worry about being poisoned again." Tang Zheng said excitedly as if he had discovered a new continent.
The Ancestor didn't deny this point, but his heavy tone didn't change as he muttered to himself, "In the past, I couldn't understand why most of our strength was deteriorating. Now that the Bloodthirsty Scepter has appeared, I finally understand. It's true that the Bloodthirsty Scepter can cure poisons and remove most of the Suicide Valley's poison, but it also affects us, causing our strength to deteriorate bit by bit. This is the benefit it brings to us, and the harm it brings to us. "
"Ah …" "So it's like that!"
The Ancestor's words made everyone come to a realization. They all looked at the Bloodthirsty Scepter in Xiao Bai's hands with fear, feeling its ferocious nature even more.
They didn't even come into direct contact with the Bloodthirsty Scepter, but they were all affected.
"It should be because you drank the water from this waterfall that you were affected quite a bit." Tang Zheng pointed at the waterfall and said.
It was true that the Bloodthirsty Scepter was ferocious, but in the end, if the two sides didn't come into direct contact, it would be difficult to affect them. And water was the only medium, which was why this kind of situation occurred.
