Could it be that the "that person" in Gen's mouth at that time did not refer to the white dragon?

"Lixia's clan, the whole clan is the loyal servant of that adult, and they will not hesitate to go to the soup and fire for that adult, how can they be enemies of him?" Liqiu added. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"But I heard that Rixia betrayed his people......"

"Oh, that's what you're talking about!" Liqiu showed a look of sudden realization, "Actually, the reason is very simple. ”

"Simple?"

"Because since we have abandoned our former identities and remained incognito, then our mission naturally cannot be known to more people!"

I suddenly said, too, the reason is really simple, if my brain can be smarter, I should be able to deduce it myself.

Actually, I already have some information about this before.

In Liqing's body, there is the existence of the blood of the gods, just like me. I don't know what happened to be like this, but because of this, the world is extremely sinister for Li Qing - many demons and demon gods are coveting her, trying to eat her flesh and blood, absorb her soul, and achieve the goal of rapidly improving her cultivation.

So I think it should be that before the white dragon was imprisoned at the bottom of the Styx, he knew that his future was uncertain, so he summoned the four powerful demons he trusted and became the guardians of Liqing, right? Since it is necessary to keep a low profile and avoid attracting attention, it is natural that the matter of protecting Liqing under the entrustment of the white dragon cannot be made public.

Unexpectedly, for thousands of years, Lixia has been burdened with the misunderstanding of the family, and he guards his oath alone. This style of work really doesn't look like him who is straightforward.

I can't help but think of my own family. In the past 20 years, I have not known anything about my own family, and even hated them. Now that I know all the truth, when I think of Lixia again, I can't help but feel related.

It's just that the two of us are in a position that is just reversed.

"Speaking of which, that lord has a great life-saving grace to the people of Lixia." Liqiu slowed down and began to speak to me.

Once upon a time, there was a Blood Moon Plague, and I had heard of it before.

I don't know what the cause of that Blood Moon was, except that it seemed to have almost led to the extinction of humanity and completely changed the pattern of the world.

Not only humans, but many demons also faced the threat of death during that disaster, and the total number of demons was more than halved after that.

Those who were threatened and almost wiped out included Lixia's big family.

Lixia is in a fairly large family, and all the people are black leopards. I don't know why they are all black, because most of the leopards in the world are not this color. But that's how it turned out.

They are numerous, and there are many of them, and they are very united, which allows them to overcome their opponents and save themselves in the face of one calamity after another. Year after year, their family strength has not weakened, but has become stronger and stronger.

Until that moment of the Blood Moon Plague thousands of years ago.

That time of the Blood Moon Disaster, in fact, was not a great cleansing of the human world, but a reshuffling of the Demon God Dao. However, the demon race has been affected just like humans, suffering heavy losses in the continuous disasters and wars, and facing the same catastrophe of annihilation.

In this case, the choice made by the united big family is naturally different from that of those stragglers - they gather together, combine the demonic power of the whole clan, and open a demonic barrier outside the settlement of the clan.

It would not be easy for anything outside to invade the barrier, and in this way, they worked hard to maintain it, quietly enduring and waiting, waiting for the moment when the Blood Moon Plague would pass. However, the plague lasted too long, and their barrier was constantly eroded by external forces, and all kinds of mutilations and breakages continued to appear.

At this time, the family had to make a difficult decision - to sacrifice the lives of their clansmen to strengthen the barrier in order to preserve as much of the fire of the clan's life as possible.

Hearing this, I suddenly felt some emotion. It sounds like it's quite similar to some of the most traditional human families.

Thus, the sacrifice begins with the elders of the family, and except for the most important patriarch and commander of the family, everyone else decides their fate by seeking hints, just like when we humans have to draw lots and flip coins. Gradually, such sacrifices spread to any "age group" of the family.

However, even the youngest demons have a lifespan of more than a thousand years, and in the eyes of humans, it can never be described as "young".

The chosen ones will live alone and quietly for three days in the mountains and forests, which are enshrined as sacred places, to reflect on their own lives, which can be regarded as the last period of time left for them. After that, they will arrive at the energy generating place of the demonic energy enchantment, convert all their bodies and spirits into energy, and integrate into the family enchantment.

In fact, for demons, this also means that the body and spirit are destroyed, and it means complete death.

The order of sacrifice is balanced between the ages, so as not to fall in total decline due to a lack of experience and strength in any aspect of the battle that may be encountered in the future. So, soon after the sacrifice began, the pointer of fate pointed to Gen, the brother of Lixia who had asked me to speak to Lixia before.

Gen did not feel the slightest resistance to such a fate, but regarded it as his own responsibility and obligation. Before setting off for a retreat on the sacred mountain, Gen and Xun hugged goodbye, after all, they grew up together, the closest blood relationship, and the most affectionate siblings.

But when Xun hugged Gen, he suddenly felt that he couldn't let such a thing happen.

So he struck down Gen and made sure that he would never wake up for three days and three nights.

Then, Xun said to the patriarch that he would be the victim instead of Gen.

This request was naturally granted, for every man was a member of the family, and there was no distinction between high and low - in this case, voluntariness always preceded the oracle.

Even, among the previous victims, especially among the victims of the elder generation, more than half of them were voluntary.

After a brief farewell ceremony, Tatsumi went into the mountains alone and began to experience the three days that belonged to him.

Although every night is a blood moon, the day after the sun rises gives the illusion of peace and tranquility, as if everything is still in the past.

The time of three days was magnified to infinity, which made Tatsumi feel a little incredible. As an existence that has been promoted to a great demon, even if the level is not determined by the length of lifespan but only by talent and cultivation, it means that he has survived for an extremely long time. Time is a relative concept, in the past, a hundred years seemed to be a flick of a finger, and sometimes, a single sleep in the practice could last for decades or hundreds of years, but these three days are not worth mentioning, even every minute and every second seems to be able to carve a mark on life.

After all, it is destined to be the last three days of life, and after three days, everything that constitutes the so-called "self" will be wiped out and cease to exist.
