Chapter 5: The Heart of a Goddess

Jiu Yue picked up the blood jade on his chest and showed it to the old man in front of him, "...... Do you know this? Do you know how to take it off?"

The group of people in front of Jiu Yue instinctively leaned forward the moment they saw the jade, and after determining what they saw, they all stepped back as if they had seen a ghost, and they let out a panting sound neatly, staring nervously at the blood jade in Jiu Yue's hand, as if she was holding something extremely vicious.

The old man's expression became serious and serious, and he cautiously looked at the jade in Jiuyue's hand.

"Why did the color of this blood jade become so dark......?"

"Do you recognize this jade?" Jiu Yue seemed to see hope.

"This is a fragment of my clan's spirit stone, how can the old decay not know it. The old man's hand touched the snow-white beard on his chin, his eyes became trance-like, as if he was caught in a memory, and it could be seen from the old man's sad expression that this memory must be very painful, although it was very painful, the old man still slowly told Jiuyue word by word.

“…… This blood jade is the evil of my hard-working granddaughter......"

It turned out that the people who saved Jiuyue and Cangxuan were actually the Wuyue clan who had disappeared for about a thousand years in rumors, and they had never disappeared, and they had been living in seclusion in this forest of no return for a thousand years.

A thousand years ago, the Wuyue clan was still one of the three major royal families in the Xiamo Jungle, the people of the Wuyue clan were born with a weak physique, and were not good at fighting, and their lifespan was extremely short, with an average lifespan of more than 300 years. The reason why the Dan is able to dominate one side and live as a king is because the Wuyue clan has a spirit stone, which is also the source of their spiritual power, called the Heavenly Stone, this spirit stone can pass through the world, it can be opened once a day, it knows where all people or things in the world are, and has the ability to predict disasters, but because it peeps through the heavens, in order to avoid causing heavenly punishment and has been properly kept by the lords of Wuyue in the past dynasties, it will not be used unless it is forced to do.

In this world, I am afraid that only the ancient true gods have such ability, and having this ability equivalent to having a god tests the will of the successors of the lord of the witch moon in the past generations, and this generation of the lord of the witch moon Li Yang has not been able to withstand the test, Li Yang because of this ability to make its ambition gradually expanded, began to abuse the ability of the stone to ask the sky, at the beginning of the effect is very good, the king of the moon with the stone led the clan to conquer almost every battle is invincible, at that time the king of the moon was like the god of war of the Xihe clan in general, became a god-like figure, many small tribes regard the Wuyue clan as the true god of the world, have volunteered to join its command。

Seeing that Xia Mo's stable situation was gradually broken, the once small Wuyue clan began to dominate the family, it is not possible to continue like this, the same royal clan of the spirit binding clan and the Tianlu clan have a strong sense of crisis, they think that the Wuyue clan is not good at the way of war, can be bigger, relying on nothing more than the question of the heavenly stone, so the two royal clans that are not very compatible began to plot together to seize it.

At that time, the Spirit Binding King was not a Thousand Days Hundred Pavilions, but the elder brother of Thousand Days Hundred Pavilions, Thousand Days and Tianlu King discussed tactics in a few days, Wu Yue had the ability to prophesy, and they could not attack directly, they had to let them mess up their own positions first, and they could only take it in one fell swoop, and when they asked about the ownership of the Heavenly Stone, they had a tacit understanding and did not mention it.

The tragedy began here, Wuyue King Liyang has a daughter, named Wei Wu, who was cut on the cheek by a blade in the war when she was young, and there is a long scar on the left side of her face from the center of her eyebrows to the corner of her lips and looks very ugly, and her temperament is particularly stubborn, and it happens to be the age of the girl Huaichun, at such a moment, with such a character, the more you let her not do it, the more she wants to do it.

On that day, as in the past, she was collecting flowers and plants for alchemy in the Fusang forest, but she saw a young man with a face like a crown of jade, lying on the ground and dying, so she saved the boy, and the boy woke up and poured out his love to the girl, who had been very inferior because of her ugly appearance, thinking that the boy was only thinking of his kindness, and did not really like her.

Although this strange woman looks ugly, but her character is very good, and most of the medicine she refines is used to treat others, a woman like Wei Wu, in fact, is very afraid of being hurt, and protects her heart very well, and she is not too gullible in love, but at the same time she has a strong desire to be loved, as long as it takes time, she will dedicate her heart completely without reservation, the young man is waiting for this day, he is very patient, and he is also very confident in his charm.

From then on, he was very attentive to her, and his affection was sincere, waiting for him to get along with her for a moment in the Fusang forest every day, helping her collect flowers and plants for refining medicine, telling her all kinds of interesting stories, and even getting some injured animals for her to heal from nowhere, as if other things were no longer important to him after meeting her.

As he expected, the moment he was waiting for finally came, and that day the tricky woman told the boy that her affection for him in her heart was just like him, as if she had finally let go of all her worries in her heart, so the later plot developed very naturally, and the tricky woman and the boy got along with each other inseparably after a period of time before and under the moon, and after a good day of Qin Se and Ming.

The young man felt that the time was almost up, so he mentioned to Wei Wu that he wanted to marry Wei Wu, and Wei Wu's father, Li Yang, the king of Wuyue, was already very dependent on Wen Tianshi at this time, and he had to confirm everything through a stone before he dared to make a move, even if it was his daughter's marriage.

The prediction ability of the Asking Heaven Stone is actually very limited, it can only see the ending, but not the process of happening, in the past, he used it on the battlefield, which is a combination of the two abilities of the Asking Heaven Stone.

First look at where the enemy's army came from by asking Tianshi's ability to know the truth, and then look at the outcome of this battle on the second day, usually this is a causal relationship, because the enemy's movements and deployment of troops are known first, if the difference in strength between the two sides is not large, the final victory is almost doomed.

Li Yang never imagined that one day he would see his death with his own eyes through this divine object that he was proud of to have obtained everything, and he died a terrible death.

By asking Tianshi Liyang learned that this young man would bring ruin to the whole clan, he resolutely disagreed with the request of the trick and immediately said that he wanted to kill the boy, at this time the trick was the time when the love was strong, she didn't believe that the boy would harm her and her family anyway, how could she listen to her father's words.

She put a dagger on her neck, and in an instant she drew a deep blood mark, threatening her own life to save the young man, and was ready to elope with the young man, but the young man persuaded the tricky Wu Yue King that he was only bewitched by the Heavenly Stone, if there was no stone, he would not object to them being together, and the Wu Yue King would definitely be made mad by the stone if he continued like this for a long time.

After thinking about it carefully, she recalled her father's almost crazy state of the stone, and felt that the young man was very reasonable, she had long been tired of seeing her father's six relatives who did not recognize and only cared about a broken stone, and could lock herself in a house with a stone all day long, and no one paid attention to it.

What the boy said was very reasonable, in fact, no matter what the boy said, she would feel that it made sense, because she believed in the boy so much, so she did what the boy said.

Wei Wu has a talent for refining pills, that day she gave her father a kind of drug she developed herself, colorless and tasteless, Li Yang was stunned by her without noticing, she easily took Li Yang's key, and stole the Wentian Stone.

The boy claimed that he had a way to destroy the Wentian Stone, and Wei Wu was convinced, so she easily handed over the treasure of the clan into the hands of the young man, thinking that her father would be angry for a while at most, this stone is gone, it is a good thing for everyone, she thinks so naively.

But the reality immediately responded to her innocence with a loud slap, and the boy immediately revealed his true colors after getting the Wentian Stone, telling the trick that he was just using her, and trapped the trick in a wooden house, at this time she still didn't want to believe the boy's words, didn't want to believe that the boy was just using her, he locked her here, and there was a lot of dry food on the table, he was afraid that she would starve to death, indicating that he cared about her!

Three days later, she used her ten fingers to peel off a plank alive, and when she fled back to the clan, she found that her father, Liyang, the king of Wuyue, had been killed in the war, and his head was hung on the royal city of the Spirit-bound Clan, and only the mutilated corpse was brought back, and more than half of the clan was killed and wounded, and the losses were heavy, including her three brothers.

Faced with the death of her relatives, the betrayal of her lover, and the anger and resentment of her clansmen, she finally collapsed, and the consequences of her collapse were extremely extreme...... and the herbs themselves.

No one could stop her cruel actions, and her people were grieving the loss of their loved ones, and they had no energy to care about her actions.

At this time, the departing young man took Wen Tianshi to find Wei Wu and asked her to stop killing innocents like this, since he was the cause, he would end all this.

Wei Wu looked up at her scarless, white and flawless face, looked at the boy expressionlessly, and finally let out a sneer, cut off the young man's head with her own hands, and smashed the Wentian Stone, but her resentment still did not disappear, she was very painful, after the young man's death, her pain did not decrease at all, and became more crazy, in the end, the forbidden medicine was refined, and the forbidden medicine was used on herself, so that she gained temporary power, and no one in Xia Mo was her opponent.

Trickster used this power to kill all the nearby tribes that could be killed, and even killed the spirit binding king Qianri Jue, her ferocity caused a joint siege of various tribes, Qianri Jue had already beaten her seriously injured before she was exhausted, she was besieged in the Fusang forest, before she died, she cut off her heart in pain, and used the power she got plus the fragments of the Heavenly Stone to make the last forbidden spell, the fragments of the spirit stone instantly became a piece of red, and in this piece of red, many cyan skin terrible monsters were conjured, and this kind of monster often emitted a kind of ' The sound of 'Tricky Spirit' was called the Ghost by later generations, and the Ghost was the entity of the treacherous resentment, and if the resentment was materialized, it was a very tricky existence.

The ghosts are ferocious and abnormal, bloodthirsty and crazy, after a burst of bloody rain and bloody wind, only a blood-red earth and corpses everywhere remain, because the Wentian Stone is the source of the spiritual power of the Wuyue clan, the degeneration of the spirit stone has caused the people of the whole clan to be eaten by forbidden arts, they will become all kinds of animals during the day, there is no consciousness and only rely on instinct to kill, and at night they will return to human form and remember everything that happened during the day, someone has unconsciously killed their wives and children, and then very painfully ended their lives.

They are not human beings and ghosts, they are hidden in this Fuso forest, the irony is that their age no longer grows, if it is not an accident they will never die again, in a sense, they have gained eternal life, and this eternal life is manually ended by many people who can't stand it.

However, death is not the end, the soul of the treacherous woman is still hovering in this Fusang forest, her hatred has not dissipated, these people who ended their lives by themselves, after death, all turned into ghosts.

They don't want to live like this, and they don't want to become that kind of thing after death, the old man led the people to build a stone room under the Fusang forest, the construction process was very difficult, there were often casualties, and the stone houses separated from each other were like prisons, they would each lock themselves in the stone room before sunrise to prevent themselves from hurting or being injured, they were like this, they lived in this Fusang forest for a whole thousand years.

Jiuyue looked at him dumbfounded after listening to the old man's narration, and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.

After the old man said it, he was a lot more relaxed, and the look on his face gradually eased.

"What the hell are you talking about...... That's it, right?" Jiu Yue turned around and looked at the terrifying monster that had died not far from the ground with its big mouth open and baring its fangs.

The old man nodded slightly, "Where did you get this jade from?"

"The young lord of the blood clan, Xi Ze...... You know? He put it on me. Jiuyue asked nervously.

When the old man heard the word 'blood clan', he paused slightly, and suddenly had a clear expression.

“…… Lady Wei is my granddaughter, no one wants to bury her after she dies, I buried her, and I also took away the fragments of the Heavenly Stone......" The old man sighed, as if he didn't want to remember that scene anymore.

“…… Why...... Why did it end up in Yuzawa's hands?"

"It's a long story......," said the old man, looking worried.

The so-called blood clan came into being because three hundred years after that incident, one day an uninvited guest came to the Fusang forest and told them that if they took her medicine, they could end such a life worse than death, although the effect of the medicine was only for one year, but as long as they served her, she could provide them with a steady stream.

The clansmen seem to have finally seen hope, as long as they can end such a day, they are willing to do whatever they want, but the old man is clear in his heart, but someone wants to use them as a knife to use their pain, temporarily get rid of the pain in front of them, but turn into a puppet that can only be controlled by others, how different is that kind of life from now?

The old man informed the clansmen of his thoughts, but with little success, except for a dozen people from the clan, the rest of the people took that person's pill and left the Forest of No Return.

So the Wuyue people who chose to accept the medicine changed their names to the Blood Clan, although they became very ugly during the day but no longer became animals, and no longer lost consciousness, compared with ordinary people, only the appearance was ugly, but at night it will still change back to its original appearance, they think that they can have consciousness and be able to go out and walk during the day like normal people, even if it is ugly It is an insignificant thing for them, not only that, but their physique has become extraordinarily strong, like a new life, the once weak Wuyue Clan, in this way, has become a brave and warlike blood clan, and has re-ruled the entire northern jungle。

Although the fragments of the Wentian Stone left by the strange woman have turned into pieces of blood-colored jade, and they no longer have the ability to predict, but because of the resentment of the strange woman on this jade, they have become the most evil thing.

There was once a woman in the clan who saw the beauty of this jade, and quietly took it away from the old man, but for some reason it seemed to be a different person, she treated her man like a stranger, and actually fell in love with a woman in the clan, until one day the woman who made her fall in love died inexplicably, and the woman disappeared from then on, at that time death was nothing new for them, no one connected the two things, and everyone forgot about it after a few days.

Therefore, the people of the blood clan only knew about this jade but did not know why, they only thought that it could make people lose their minds, and all the blood jade had been properly put away by the old man, except for the one taken by the missing woman......

"People's hearts are always greedy, the lonely young master of the blood clan longs for companionship, but he is afraid of being seen his ugly appearance in the day and no one is willing to stop for him, which is probably the reason why you have this piece of blood jade on you......" The old man said earnestly, looking at Jiuyue, his eyes full of helplessness.
