"Could it be …" Xiao Hua felt a chill run down his spine. He thought to himself, "Could it be that the Blood Tablet is fake, and … and Xiao is just a cover? That's right! The drop of blood that the Seven Spirits Immortal gave Xiao was for the descendants of Zhu Han, but the blood in it was not pure. Even if the descendants of Zhu Han obtained it, what use would it be? "
"What?" The holy statue said proudly, "You're not talking anymore. Do you understand something?"
"Sigh …" Xiao Hua sighed and said, "I think I understand, but I'm also confused. I really don't know what the truth is."
"Tell me, what did you know in the Seven Spirits Mountain? Why did Yun Lan ask you to come? "
"Hehe …" Xiao Hua smiled and said, "Don't worry, the Seven Spirits Immortal did not ask me to avenge him. Of course, if you want to know the details, you have to agree to two conditions."
"Conditions?" The holy statue laughed coldly, "Why are you talking about conditions in front of me? Are you qualified? "
"Then forget it!" Xiao Hua said lazily, "Since there are no conditions, then there's no need to talk about them."
Although Xiao Hua looked like he didn't care at all, he was secretly calculating in his heart: "This Two Qi Immortal called Zhu Gui left behind a wisp of his primordial spirit on the holy statue. Since even Zhu Ding didn't know of his existence, he must have been hiding for a long time. Only when the country's royal family is paying respects to their ancestors would the king come in to see him. He must be very lonely and wants to know what his old rival, Yun Lan, said to Xiao. If Xiao wants to live, he can only bet on this! "
"Old Ancestor …" Zhu Ding suddenly said, "The teacher is my teacher. He once saved my life. Oh, he also saved my father's life. Although I don't know his real purpose, he is my benefactor. Therefore, I beg of you, Old Ancestor, if possible, don't … kill the teacher! "
Xiao Hua looked at Zhu Ding in surprise. He did not expect Zhu Ding to plead for him.
"Forget it!" The holy statue pondered for a moment, then looked at Xiao Hua and said, "Since you are just a useless chess piece, I will listen to your two conditions first!"
Xiao Hua looked at the holy statue, which now had flames condensing into a Daoist robe. A lifelike immortal was standing there. Perhaps his appearance was not clear, but the spiritual pressure was as strong as a mountain. Xiao Hua knew that he had unknowingly fallen into a deadly situation. If he answered carelessly, this immortal might give him a thunderous blow! Xiao Hua licked his dry lips and said in a low voice, "Senior, junior's first condition is definitely to ask senior to spare junior's life after hearing junior's explanation. After all, junior …"
"Mm …" Without waiting for Xiao Hua to finish speaking, the sacred statue lightly snorted, and the surrounding light and shadows flickered like the tide. A thunderous voice sounded in Xiao Hua's ears, "This old master understands."
Although the holy statue did not answer, this threatening voice made Xiao Hua feel relieved. He knew that his chances of survival had increased by 30%. Xiao Hua could not help but look at Zhu Ding gratefully. If it were not for him, Zhu Gui would not have agreed, right?
However, Zhu Ding did not look at Xiao Hua. Zhu Ding looked at the holy statue in a daze. Although his face was respectful, the confusion in his eyes was even stronger.
"This … this second condition …" Xiao Hua was somewhat hesitant, but he still said in a determined tone, "Senior, can you first tell this junior about the grudge between Senior and Senior Seven Spirits True Immortal?"
"What?" The holy statue's voice was much lower than before, and its tone was more mocking. "Do you feel bad because you have been deceived? Or perhaps the so-called Seven Spirits True Immortal is not the senior expert you think he is, and you can't accept it? "
"Phew …" Xiao Hua let out a long breath and said with a wry smile, "That's not it either. I have ascended to immortality. When I was in the mortal world, I was deceived and used by the so-called senior experts. Even if senior Seven Spirits True Immortal deceived me, the benefits he gave me were also real … "
"Bullsh * t!" The holy statue roared angrily, and the entire space was filled with waves of fire. Its voice sounded in all directions at the same time. "Yun Lan is a sanctimonious person. Everything he does is planned! He deliberately schemed so that … "
At this point, the holy statue waved its hand, and a fiery shadow fell from the sky and protected Zhu Ding. Xiao Hua then noticed that Zhu Ding had fallen more than 30 meters from the sky while the holy statue roared. His face was pale, and he looked like he was about to faint.
Zhu Ding's lips trembled, and he managed to stand still in midair. He hurriedly bowed and said, "Thank you, Old Ancestor …"
The holy statue did not answer, but closed its crimson eyes. After a while, it said, "I have been lonely in the Fire Spirit Sacred Palace for a long time. The records of Yun Lan must have been destroyed by the royal family. Now, what is circulating in the Dreamy Cloud Swampland is the story of the Seven Spirits True Immortal's Grace Spiritual Body. If I don't say it, who will know how despicable this guy is? Since that's the case, I will tell you the truth of that day! Especially Crown Prince Zhu Ding, you must remember that it is not easy to establish a country. There are conflicts everywhere. Even your own mother … cannot be trusted! "
"Yes …" When Zhu Ding heard the last sentence, his heart skipped a beat, but he still said respectfully, "I will follow Old Ancestor's teachings."
"How should I put it?" Talking about the past from who knows how many generations ago, the voice in the holy statue actually hesitated, not knowing where to start. After a few breaths, it continued, "You should also know that Xuan Yi Country was established by three senior immortals. In fact, from the early records, the one who really wanted to establish Xuan Yi Country was my Zhu Clan's ancestor. The Zhao Clan and Yun Clan's ancestors were just good friends of my Zhao Clan's ancestor. They also contributed a little when establishing the country. In particular, because they had to resist the pressure of Mo Qing Country and Ji Pan Country, my Zhao Clan's ancestor invited the Yun Clan's ancestor and Zhao Clan's ancestor to sit on the throne together."
"… It is said that my Zhu Clan's and Yun Clan's ancestors were male immortals, while the Zhao Clan's ancestor was a female immortal. The two senior immortals admired the female immortal. And the three senior immortals went to the Enlightened Continent to gain experience together, so they had a choice. After the establishment of Xuan Yi Country, the country's strength grew day by day, and the Zhao Clan's ancestor had a good impression of my Zhu Clan's ancestor. The two seniors ended up as husband and wife, and it is said that the Yun Clan's ancestor was overshadowed and left Xuan Yi Country … "
"… Later, I don't know when, but the Yun Clan's ancestor returned to Xuan Yi Country. It seems that there are records that the Yun Clan's ancestor was seriously injured, and there are also records that the Yun Clan's ancestor had the Deva's Three Decrees. In any case, the Yun Clan's ancestor came back. And he didn't come back alone, there were other juniors … "
"… Since the Yun Clan's ancestor was one of the immortals who established Xuan Yi Country, my Zhu Clan's ancestor and Zhao Clan's ancestor couldn't not let him enter the royal family again. But after many generations of development, the Zhu Clan and Zhao Clan's power in Xuan Yi Country grew stronger, far surpassing the Yun Clan. Moreover, the Zhu Clan and Zhao Clan had many marriage alliances, so the Yun Clan had always been at a disadvantage in Xuan Yi Country … "
"… In Yun Lan's generation, the Yun Clan in Xuan Yi Country had declined to the extreme. Not to mention fighting against my Zhu Clan and Zhao Clan, even reproduction was a problem. If Yun Lan was an ordinary immortal, it would be fine, but he was an ambitious one. He wanted to restore the glory of the Yun Clan's ancestor! Of course, if he used normal methods, such as recuperating, my Zhu Clan and Zhao Clan might not be unable to help him. However, he wanted to take a shortcut and use dishonorable methods to obtain the throne of Xuan Yi Country. How could he succeed? Not to mention my Zhu Clan, even the Zhao Clan wouldn't allow him to do as he pleased! So, Yun Lan simply revealed his vicious side and led the last of the Yun Clan's immortals to fight to the death with my Zhu Clan and Yun Clan. He wanted to fight to the death … "
"… How could my Zhu Clan and Zhao Clan not see his ugliness in our eyes? The battle in Yun Lan's eyes was just a small wave in our eyes. We easily killed the last of the Yun Clan's immortals. But the cunning Yun Lan had already prepared a backup plan. When he saw that things weren't going well, he immediately abandoned his clansmen and prepared to escape by himself … "
"… My Zhu Clan and Zhao Clan saw through Yun Lan's plan long ago. I waited outside the capital and set up an immortal array, waiting for Yun Lan to enter the trap! However, when Yun Lan fell into the immortal array and was about to be killed, he begged us to spare his life on account of him being the only descendant of the Yun Clan … "
"… We pitied him and remembered the contributions of the Yun Clan's ancestor in establishing Xuan Yi Country. After Yun Lan made a promise never to enter Xuan Yi Country, we let him go. To be honest, I didn't think Yun Lan could live for long. After all, his immortal body was destroyed and he was only left with a nascent soul … "
"What a pity …" The holy statue sighed in the end. "The world is unpredictable. Who would have thought that Yun Lan would obtain an opportunity and cultivate to the True Immortal Realm? This really made me tremble with fear. Fortunately, he was wary of the promise and didn't come to Xuan Yi Country, nor did he send any disciples over. After that, he left behind a True Immortal's cave in the Seven Spirit Mountain. We sent people to check it out but didn't find anything special, so we didn't take it to heart … "
After hearing this, Xiao Hua's eyes turned slightly and he asked, "Senior, I have something I don't understand. May I ask?"
"What is it?"
"Senior, it should be very easy for you to investigate a True Immortal's cave, right?" Xiao Hua smiled and said, "Since you know that Senior Seven Spirits Immortal has arrangements, why don't you go directly?"
"Hehe …" The holy statue laughed and said, "You saw through it. That Yun Lan is cunning. After he cultivated to the True Immortal Realm, he sent a message to the royal family of Xuan Yi Country …"
At this point, the holy statue didn't say anything else. Xiao Hua didn't ask any more questions. Needless to say, this message must be a warning!
"Old Ancestor, Old Ancestor …" Zhu Ding, who seemed to be intoxicated by the story, suddenly shouted, "I want to ask too!"
"Ask away …"
"Ancestor, the Zhu Clan has the bloodline of the Vermilion Bird. The Vermilion Bird represents the Zhu Clan. Then … why did the Zhao Clan use the Unifying Immortal Fruit and the Yun Clan use the Blue Qin Flower?"
