"Elder of the Heavenly Spirit Clan, Su Mu, pays his respects to Lord Sacred Spirit!"
Suddenly, the Heavenly Spirit clan's elder knelt on the ground with a thud and bowed to Xiao Bai. The old man's sudden action shocked the people from the Heavenly Spirit clan.
"Lord Sacred Spirit? Could it be …? "
At that moment, all sorts of exclamations could be heard from the crowd. However, all of them had the same expression on their faces: shock, astonishment, and disbelief.
That was because they understood the term 'Lord Sacred Spirit'. It was the title of the most powerful spiritual beast before the Heavenly Spirit Clan was split up.
"What Lord Sacred Spirit?" Xiao Bai glanced at Elder Su Mu indifferently, as if it had nothing to do with him.
"Lord Sacred Spirit, you're indeed still alive. Although your strength has been greatly reduced, there's no mistake about this aura."
"That's great. No matter what, it's a joyous occasion for our Heavenly Spirit Clan as long as you're still alive."
Elder Su Mu spoke emotionally. At that moment, he, who had always been calm, had lost his composure, which showed how important Xiao Bai's position in the Heavenly Spirit Clan was.
"Could it be that y-you're the princess?"
All of a sudden, Elder Su Mu's gaze shifted to Su Lin 'er, who was beside Xiao Bai. After examining her for a brief moment, the excitement on his aged face grew even more intense.
"Your Highness?" At that moment, Elder Su Mu's words caused another uproar in the crowd.
At that moment, the onlookers from the Heavenly Spirit Clan looked at Xiao Bai, Su Lin 'er, and even Xing Jue behind them in a completely different light.
Even those who didn't know the inside story could sense the special status of Su Lin 'er and Xiao Bai from Elder Su Mu's actions and how he addressed them.
However, compared to the crowd, the guards who attacked Xing Jue earlier had embarrassed expressions. They never expected that the person whom they treated as a spy was actually the person who brought back the most important people in the Heavenly Spirit Clan, the Lord Sacred Spirit, and the princess.
"I …" Su Lin 'er took a step back and was at a loss for what to do when Elder Su Mu greeted her.
"Your Highness, don't you remember me? I'm Elder Su Mu? "Elder Su Mu was confused when he saw that Su Lin 'er didn't recognize him.
"Elder, you don't have to ask anymore. Sister Lin 'er and Little White have already lost their memories." Xing Jue, who was standing behind Su Lin' er, said calmly.
When Xing Jue's voice rang out, almost everyone in the surroundings were completely shocked by Xing Jue's words. Even Elder Su Mu, who had experienced the secular world, had a shocked expression on his face.
In the depths of the Heavenly Spirit Clan's camp, Xing Jue, Su Lin 'er, Xiao Bai, and Elder Su Mu were sitting in a rather secretive palace.
Xing Jue was talking to Elder Su Mu, while Su Lin 'er was obediently listening to them. As for Xiao Bai, who couldn't transform into its human form, it was sleeping soundly beside Su Lin' er.
After a series of conversations, Xing Jue had already told Elder Su Mu about how he met Su Lin 'er and Xiao Bai, as well as what happened after that, as well as his objective for coming to the Heavenly Spirit Clan.
"Sigh, I didn't expect the princess and the Lord Sacred Spirit Clan to lose their memories."
"If we didn't meet you, my little friend, Xing Jue, our Heavenly Spirit Clan would have suffered a great loss."
"I, Su Mu, would like to thank my little friend, Xing Jue, on behalf of the Heavenly Spirit Clan."
After hearing Xing Jue's words, Su Mu looked at Su Lin 'er and Xiao Bai with a pained expression. Then, he suddenly half-knelt on the ground and bowed to Xing Jue.
"Elder Su Mu, you can't do that! You're a senior!"
Xing Jue's face slightly changed. He immediately helped Su Mu up. However, Xing Jue could understand the old man's actions.
After all, as an elder that was loyal to the Heavenly Spirit Clan, he would naturally be excited to see his master safe and sound. He would also be grateful to the person that protected his master.
"Elder Su Mu, may I know what happened back then for the Heavenly Spirit Clan to fall to such a state?" Xing Jue anxiously asked after Elder Su Mu calmed down. After all, this was the main point that Xing Jue wanted to know.
"Sigh, it's a long story …"
"Ever since the Spirit Eater Clan mysteriously fell over a hundred years ago, our Heavenly Spirit Clan's development has been even more rapid."
"When Lin 'er was born, our Heavenly Spirit Clan was at its peak. Under the leadership of Lin' er's father and Lord Divine Spirit, our Heavenly Spirit Clan was already an existence that could strike fear into any forces in the Sky Martial Continent."
"However, everything changed drastically eight years ago …" Elder Su Mu narrated the events that happened back then. When he talked about what happened eight years ago, his expression became complicated. It could be seen that that event had left an indelible mark in his heart.
"Eight years ago, everything in our Heavenly Spirit Clan changed drastically because of the arrival of a mysterious person. It was also because of that mysterious person that our Heavenly Spirit Clan became what it is today," Elder Su Mu continued. Elder Su Mu continued. When he mentioned the mysterious person, he could not help but clench his fists tightly.
"Mysterious person?"
"What kind of mysterious person is he?"
"What's his motive?"
When Xing Jue heard Elder Su Mu's words, his previously calm face instantly became agitated. He quickly asked. That was because Xing Jue was too sensitive about the mysterious person's name.
"The reason why he's called mysterious person is because no one has heard of his name in the continent. Someone of his strength shouldn't be so unknown."
"As for the mysterious person's motive, it's the treasure of our Heavenly Spirit Clan, the Saint Stone," Elder Su Mu explained to Xing Jue.
"The Saint Stone again?" Xing Jue couldn't help but frown.
The mysterious person who attacked Yao Xinyan's grandfather ten years ago was because of the Saint Stone. The mysterious person who attacked the Heavenly Spirit Clan eight years ago was also because of the Saint Stone. It was both because of the Saint Stone and because of the mysterious person. At that moment, Xing Jue felt that the so-called mysterious person was the same person. It was very likely that it was the person who exterminated the Spirit Eater Clan back then.
"Little friend Xing Jue also knows about the Saint Stone?"
Elder Su Mu was slightly surprised by Xing Jue's reaction. Apart from the higher-ups of the Heavenly Spirit Clan, not many people knew about the Saint Stone. He was rather surprised that Xing Jue knew about the Saint Stone at such a young age.
"Yes, I know a thing or two about the Saint Stone. What happened after that? Did the Heavenly Spirit Clan not give the Saint Stone to him?" Xing Jue nodded and continued to ask.
"Of course not. Although that person was strong, he was only at the level of a High Combat Emperor. His only advantage was that he had a Middle Rank Spiritual Weapon."
"However, at that time, both Lord Holy Spirit and Lord Clan Leader had reached the level of a High Combat Emperor. Especially Lord Holy Spirit, who had been stuck at the level of a High Combat Emperor for hundreds of years. Because of that, both of them had the opportunity to break through to the Battle Saint realm. Since there was only one Saint Stone, our Heavenly Spirit Clan naturally wouldn't give it to an outsider."
"Initially, after Lord Clan Leader and Lord Holy Spirit fused together, that mysterious person wouldn't be a match for Lord Clan Leader and Lord Holy Spirit even if he had a Middle Rank Spiritual Weapon to protect himself. After all, our Heavenly Spirit Clan possesses a unique bloodline power and ordinary people can't be compared to us," Elder Su Mu continued.
Xing Jue nodded repeatedly when he heard that. The Heavenly Spirit Clan's Spiritual Beast Equipment was indeed powerful. It was imaginable how powerful the Spiritual Beast Equipment was after the fusion of two High Combat Emperors.
"However, we realized that we were wrong because that person wasn't an ordinary person. He also possessed a unique bloodline."
Elder Su Mu was a little emotional as he said that. If it wasn't for this mistake, the Heavenly Spirit Clan wouldn't have ended up like this.
"It's actually a person with a unique bloodline. Which clan does he belong to?"
At this moment, Xing Jue was also a little emotional. If it was a person with a unique bloodline, that person was likely to be a member of an ancient clan. Xing Jue couldn't wait to know which clan he belonged to.
"It's the Soul-Eater Clan that disappeared mysteriously in the Sky Martial Continent over a hundred years ago!!!" Elder Su Mu's eyes dimmed.
"What? The Soul-Eater Clan? How … how is this possible? " At this moment, his face was filled with a dull expression. The shock in his eyes was indescribable because he never expected that the mysterious person would be a member of the Soul-Eater Clan.
"That's right. It's the Soul-Eater Clan. There's no mistake. Only the Soul-Eater Clan possesses such a unique soul power because the Soul Explosion is the strongest technique of the Soul-Eater Clan," Elder Su Mu said with absolute certainty.
At this moment, Xing Jue was in a complete mess. He couldn't connect the mysterious person who exterminated the Soul-Eater Clan with the Soul-Eater Clan. He couldn't understand why the Soul-Eater Clan would attack his own clan.
"Could it be that the mysterious person who attacked the Soul-Eater Clan, Yao Xinyan's grandfather and the Heavenly Spirit Clan isn't the same person? Could it be that the mysterious person is a survivor like my father? "
In such a chaotic state of mind, the execution began to quickly sort out the information. He wanted to come to a conclusion, but this conclusion was very difficult to determine. Even though he had obtained some clues about the mysterious person, the mysterious person was still like a mystery. He was still as mysterious as ever.
"In that battle, our Clan Leader wasn't a match for the mysterious person. However, our Heavenly Spirit Clan still had millions of clansmen. With the power of our entire clan, what was there to be afraid of even if it was a high-level Combat Emperor?"
"Unfortunately, haha … I didn't expect that the mysterious person was already prepared. He planted spies among our clansmen and hid for dozens of years. Furthermore, he secretly formed a rebel army and rebelled on that day. This caused our clansmen to be unable to support our Clan Leader." Elder Su Mu's expression became agitated once again.
Xing Jue also roughly understood what happened that year. As for the so-called rebel army, it was very likely that they were the forces of the Heavenly Spirit Palace that occupied the real stronghold of the Heavenly Spirit Clan.
