Chapter 183: The Reverse Scale of the Dragon's Blood Vessel
"Well, I think the blood demon is still alive, the Zhang family lost the game with the blood demon back then, and the blood demon manipulated the Zhang family and transformed the Zhang family into a demon exterminator, the so-called demon extermination blood sacrifice is just to provide food for the blood demon, because the blood demon feeds on the same clan. ”
Zhang Haotian's bold idea was obviously beyond Xiao Zong's expectations, and Zhang Haotian could read it from his slightly surprised eyes.
After stopping Zhang Haotian's words, Xiao Zong was silent for a long time, as if he was thinking about something. Zhang Haotian didn't dare to disturb Bogong's thinking, just quietly waiting for his response.
"You're a thoughtful kid, and you probably think a lot more than we know. Xiao Zong's analysis of Zhang Haotian was very positive.
"No, uncle, this is all my speculation. Zhang Haotian didn't dare to boast in front of Xiao Zong.
"But these are all speculations that you have a basis for, aren't they?" Xiao Zong asked rhetorically, not giving Zhang Haotian the slightest chance to be humble, this is not a good time to be modest, only by giving out all your thoughts can it be beneficial to reorganize the Zhang family.
Zhang Haotian had to nod: "It is very likely that the blood demon feeds on the same race, and the reason why the blood demon is most likely to cause the spirit extermination disaster is because the true face of the spirit extermination disaster is the devastation caused by the fall of the demon spirit born from the natural lifeline, and it can be speculated that the spirit extermination disaster is caused by the blood demon hunting and eating the demon spirit."
"At the same time as the blood demon disappears, the spirit extinguishing disaster is also decreasing, which also confirms the connection between the two. However, the reduction of the Soul Destroying Disaster does not mean that the blood demon has truly fallen. The behavior of the Zhang family to slay the demon is no different from that of the blood demon. ”
"Your analysis is not unreasonable, but unfortunately I don't know more than you guessed, so I can't confirm your guess. ”
After hearing Xiaozong's words, Zhang Haotian was obviously a little lost, and then asked, "What is the situation that Uncle Gong knows?"
Xiao Zong took a deep breath, it seemed that the truth of the Zhang family was an extremely difficult memory for him to tell, but even so, he still decided to tell Zhang Haotian about the so-called truth.
"I can't delve into the relationship between the blood demon and the Zhang family, but the Zhang family is actually controlled by one person alone, and under his instructions, the demon slaying Zhang family was established, and it has been maintained to this day. ”
"Who?" Zhang Haotian asked, this person could never be the head of the family, he should be a figure above the head of the family, but Zhang Haotian had never heard of such a person in the family.
"An existence that only the head of the family and the elders are qualified, and we all call him an old fellow. ”
"Old guy?" Hearing this title, Zhang Haotian was even more confused.
"As I said, only the elders and the head of the family can know about his existence, and it's strange that you've heard of it. Xiao Zong seemed to be a little dissatisfied with Zhang Haotian's interjection.
After Zhang Haotian obediently closed his mouth, Xiao Zong continued to talk to him about the old guy: "He never shows up in the Zhang family, he has always lived in the Zhang family's blood refining hall, and there is almost no trace of life in his appearance that is no different from the blood skeleton.
"But there is no doubt that he is alive, and he has always given his will to the head of the family, and let the Zhang family achieve it, and all the blood peak stones used by the Zhang family for blood sacrifices are supplied to the old guy. ”
Listening to Xiao Zong's words, Zhang Haotian gradually felt creepy, if his guess was correct, wouldn't that old guy be a blood demon.
"Isn't there an elder and a family head who have ever doubted it?" Zhang Haotian asked his own question, the Zhang family has such a long history, no one has ever doubted the old guy?
"It's useless to be suspicious, Zhang Haotian. Xiaozong's words puzzled Zhang Haotian, "After all, the Zhang family has received such a favor as Killing Lifewen, once Killing Lifewen is in the blood, do you think it will be useful to disobey the old guy?"
"The killing text comes from the old guy?" Zhang Haotian couldn't imagine that the killing text of the Zhang family also came from the old guy, it seems that the foundation of the Zhang family is all built under the manipulation of the old guy.
"No, it's from the Blood Refining Dao he has cultivated. The Blood Refining Dao is located at the bottom of the Blood Refining Hall, and both the elders and the head of the family have to go through the Blood Refining Dao once, and only by getting some of the killing texts into the blood can they be recognized by the old guy, which has been the case for three thousand years. Xiaozong denied Zhang Haotian's idea, and Zhang Haotian was more or less relieved.
"Then Elder Xiao Sect, how can you ......" Since Xiao Sect was once the head of the family, then he was free from the shackles of Killing Text, Zhang Haotian realized this.
"In addition to needing some of the killing texts into the blood in order to get the status of the head of the family or the elder, the Zhang family will also arrange for talented people to enter the blood refining path, reach the final killing realm, and inherit all the killing texts.
"And I chose to kill all the blood into the blood, and when I was about to finish the blood refining path, I found that the so-called blood refining path killing life into the blood was just to provide a new body for the old guy, I refused to kill the blood and forced the killing text out in reverse, and at the same time paid a heavy price.
"The Zhang family has no surname, and I can't even use a spell, and I feel like a waste person when I wander around, and at the same time, the demon slayer of the Zhang family is also chasing and killing me, because I am different from other people who have removed the surname, what I found is not the true face of the demon spirit, but the purpose of the old guy. ”
"Is every demon slayer who inherits all the Killing Texts a new body that the old guy has prepared for himself?" Zhang Haotian asked in a trembling voice.
Xiao Zong nodded in affirmation: "The old guy's current body has been used for a long time, he needs a new body very much, I escaped, and then he set his sights on Ah Shui, Ah Shui, who inherited the Killing Text, stripped off the Killing Text at the cost of the ghost hand, and since him, no one has completed the blood refining path and arrived at the Killing Realm, so now he should be in a hurry." ”
"So the old guy can't wait for a talented Zhang family member to enter the Blood Refining Dao to inherit the Killing Text?" Zhang Haotian seemed to confirm to Xiao Sect again in disbelief, his voice trembling.
"Apparently yes. "Xiao Zong is very sure.
Zhang Haotian's eyes dimmed suddenly, and the uneasiness continued to spread in his chest, the old guy needs a shell, isn't that sister the most suitable person?
As soon as he thought of this, Zhang Haotian felt uncomfortable, he Zhang Haotian didn't have many people in his life, Zhang Lingmeng was one of the few, if Zhang Lingmeng became someone else's body...... Then he, Zhang Haotian, absolutely can't accept it.
"Sister, she might go to the blood refining path. Zhang Haotian's voice trembled uncontrollably.
"Your sister?" Xiao Zong asked.
"I have a twin sister, unlike me, who is carefully cultivated by the family as a rare genius, and now it seems that it is just to raise my sister into a replaceable shell for the old guy. Zhang Haotian gritted his teeth rarely, clutching the sheets with both hands, there is no doubt that the old guy's behavior made Zhang Haotian rarely really angry because it affected the relatives Zhang Haotian cared about.
"Looks like you don't want your sister to be a shell of an old fellow. Xiao Zong was keenly aware of the changes under Zhang Haotian's eyes.
"Isn't that a matter of course?" Zhang Haotian's eyes showed a fierce light that he had never shown before, even when he decided to kill Zhang Jie, he was not so fierce.
"That'...... When Ah Shui organizes all the people with the surname to counterattack the Zhang family and go to wipe out the old guy, will you also go?"
"Go, if I can't save my sister, what's the use of me working so hard to learn these talismans. Even if he knows that his current strength is insufficient, Zhang Haotian doesn't want to sit still, and the feeling of being powerless is uncomfortable.
"Ah Shui won't let you take risks. Xiao Zong specially reminded Zhang Haotian of this fact.
Zhang Haotian couldn't respond to Xiao Sect for a long time, he understood, the teacher couldn't let him let such a young talisman follow him to do such a dangerous thing, but couldn't he find another way?
"Then do you want to go and see Ah Shui and them?" Xiao Zong suddenly asked, Zhang Haotian didn't know what he meant?
"Teacher, isn't he here?" asked Zhang Haotian suspiciously.
Xiao Zong shook his head: "I promised Ah Shui to join them, and at the same time provided him with a lot of help, but whether or not I can win them over depends on Ah Shui and Liu Bai's efforts." ”
"Who are they?" Zhang Haotian realized that "they" were not simple.
"Three thousand years ago, there was no other Zhang family that became a demon slayer. ”
