"What, what's going on?"
The white-bearded old man, who had been here for the longest time and had taken over the courage after the death of the previous high priest, was stunned when he saw the secret passage behind the statue. His eyes widened as he couldn't believe what he was seeing. He had been here for tens of thousands of years and had no idea there was such a secret passage.
"You, stop right there!"
Although they were in a daze, they weren't stupid. Seeing Rui walking towards the secret passage step by step, and about to enter, she couldn't help but shout out. Since the secret passage was hidden behind their ancestor's statue, the secret it hid must be extraordinary. However, these were the treasures of their lineage. They couldn't let outsiders get their hands on them. Previously, when Rui said that the Heavenly Demons wanted to steal some treasure from the Demon Realm, they didn't disagree with him, but rather believed him a little. But now, he completely believed what he said.
The Heavenly Demon was on the same level as their ancestor. Only the things left behind by their ancestor could catch his eye. However, the ancestor left behind three treasures. The Heavenly Demon Monument was only a legend. No one knew if it really existed. The Heavenly Demon Scepter was the symbol of imperial power. Although it contained great power, the Heavenly Demon wouldn't be interested in it. As for the Heavenly Demon Pearl, it was nowhere to be found. There was nothing in the Demon Realm that could catch the Heavenly Demon's eye. He didn't want to provoke the Demon Realm at such a critical juncture. However, all of these suspicions disappeared with the appearance of this secret passage.
The Heavenly Demon must have coveted the Demon Realm. The things in the secret passage must be extraordinary. However, what was the use of believing it? The Heavenly Demon wasn't here now, but Chu Rui was here. They still couldn't get the treasures left behind by their ancestor. The tiger didn't appear, but the wolf did. Sadly, even if it wasn't a tiger, it was just a wolf. They couldn't fight it.
Glancing at the group of angry old men, Chu Rui didn't feel the slightest ripple in his heart. What did these people think have to do with him? Even though they were all Bei Feifei's ancestors, how could this clansman, who had been separated by so many generations and had no feelings for him, have the ability to affect him? Moreover, the royal family was ruthless. If there was any bargaining chip that could surpass the value of Hua Feifei's existence, they would sell her without hesitation. He was very clear about this point.
Seeing that Chu Rui had stopped, the group of heavily injured old men immediately stood up shakily, supporting each other. Seeing that despicable fellow standing in front of the sacred altar that they had not dared to cross for countless years, as well as the statue of their ancestor that they had worshipped like a god, their eyes turned red.
Chu Rui coldly looked at this group of people, and a faint killing intent rose in his heart. If not for the fact that he was worried that the Heavenly Demon would take advantage of him if he became enemies with these guys, and that they were the last clansmen of Sha Feifei, he would have really wanted to kill them. Now that the secret passage had been found, the Celestial Demon Stele should be inside. He had already achieved his goal. These fellows were of no use to him. Moreover, they were very hostile towards him.
Chu Rui would never be soft-hearted towards his enemies. Now, for the sake of the overall situation and Sha Feifei's reputation, he could still control his temper and not take the initiative to attack. However, if these fellows were courting death, he would not mind being the executioner for once. Anyway, he had carried this name for a long time, and he had killed countless people. He did not care about a few more demon lives!
"Buzz …"
A trembling sound rang out, and an extremely dense energy filled the space, as if it was going to burst the small inner hall.
Was it finally going to end?
Chu Rui did not enter the secret passage immediately, not because he was afraid of these old men, but because he was afraid of their power. Instead, he was worried that something would happen to Sha Feifei when she received the inheritance. Fortunately, everything seemed to be fine.
"Bang, bang, bang …"
Chu Rui heaved a sigh of relief and was about to bring Sha Feifei into the palace to rest so that she could digest the powerful inheritance. However, suddenly, a dull sound was heard, and he stopped in his tracks. He was dumbfounded when he saw the scene in front of him.
"Ancestor … Bloodline, the highest inheritance!"
A group of white-bearded old men and old women knelt in a row on the ground. Their eyes were wide open as they stared at Hua Feifei, who was floating in the void like a fairy and constantly absorbing a huge amount of energy into her body. Their expressions were full of extreme shock.
Ancestor Bloodline? The highest inheritance?
Although he didn't quite understand what it meant, just by looking at these two names, he already knew what Bei Feifei had gone through. There was a type of inheritance that could not only strengthen the power of the inheritor, but also change his bloodline. To be precise, it could strengthen his bloodline. It was obvious that Hua Feifei had experienced this scene.
Chu Rui was no stranger to the term Ancestor Bloodline. This was because Tianyun and Tianyun possessed Pangu's Ancestor Bloodline, which meant that they had the same bloodline as Pangu. To a bloodline family, the importance of this was self-evident. Since Sha Feifei had the same bloodline as Heaven Demon, it meant that she was Heaven Demon, or rather, Heaven Demon's direct descendant. In comparison, these descendants, whose bloodlines had been diluted for many generations, paled in comparison to Sha Feifei. They were not on the same level at all.
Although these old men were Sha Feifei's ancestors and were many years older than her, they could not help but kneel down under the suppression of the bloodline.
"The Final Tribulation is coming. Heaven Demon, it seems like you have planned everything!"
Chu Rui could not help but squint when he heard that Sha Feifei had received the ultimate inheritance and her bloodline had evolved into the Ancestor Bloodline. Even an idiot would not believe that there was nothing fishy going on. For such a thing to happen at such a critical time, it must have been arranged by Heaven Demon.
Bloodline suppression was very terrifying. Moreover, to achieve the revival of the Demon Realm, they had to rely on an extremely strong and trusted leader. Without a doubt, Sha Feifei, who had the Heaven Demon Ancestor Bloodline, was perfect. Today, she has become the supreme existence of the Demon Realm. Even the ancestors of the Sky Monster Shrine were prostrating themselves at her feet. She had become the most powerful dictator in the Demon Realm.
