Chapter 285: The Secret of Tens of Thousands of Years Ago

"What! Ruo'er! What are you talking about? The one who saved you and Qing'er was a young man, and he single-handedly destroyed several demon clans! Could it be that the legend about the son of heavenly punishment is true?" Xiao Ziruo's father, Xiao Youbin, learned that it was a young man who saved Xiao Ziruo's mother and daughter, and the other party killed several demons by himself, a shocked look suddenly appeared on his face, and the whole person instantly stood up from the chair, and confirmed what he heard to Xiao Ziruo in great horror.

Xiao Youbin's reaction was completely in Xiao Ziruo's expectations, but the legend of the Son of Heavenly Punishment in her father's mouth made her very curious, and she replied suspiciously: "Daddy! This is what my daughter saw with her own eyes, Wu Gongzi first saved his daughter from the hands of the two demons, and then the pursuers of the demon clan came, and while he drove the beast car, he easily killed the six demons who chased him, and obtained a total of eight magic crystals. ”

After receiving confirmation from Xiao Ziruo, the high-ranking members of the Xiao family showed extremely shocked expressions, they could not have imagined that the legendary Son of Heavenly Punishment really existed, and then an elder of the Xiao family immediately asked Xiao Ziruo: "Ziruo, do you know that the Wu Gongzi who saved you is the person from there, the disciple of that sect, and when he refused your invitation, why didn't you insist for a while?"

Xiao Ziruo naturally knew very well why Wu Hanqi was reluctant to come to Xiao's house as a guest, Wu Hanqi saved their mother and daughter, and in order to be able to get out of the barren plain safely, she used the excuse of inviting Wu Hanqi to Xiao's house as a guest, and used Wu Hanqi to escort their mother and daughter.

However, Xiao Ziruo didn't plan to tell the reason why she couldn't invite Wu Hanqi to be a guest, but replied very helplessly: "Fifth uncle! But Wu Gongzi said that there is something to deal with, and I can't just invite Wu Gongzi to our Xiao family as a guest. Find someone to kidnap Wu Gongzi? As for whether Wu Gongzi is from there? A disciple of that sect? I have tried several times, but Wu Gongzi has never revealed half a point. ”

The senior management of the Xiao family heard Xiao Ziruo's answer. Expressions of regret appeared on her face, but Xiao Ziruo was very curious about her father's mention of the legend of the Son of Heavenly Punishment, and asked suspiciously, "Daddy, what kind of legend is the legend of the Son of Heavenly Punishment that you just mentioned?"

"The legend of the so-called Son of Heavenly Punishment actually comes from the Demon Race, saying that there is a kind of monk among our human beings who can use the power of the five elements to attack at the same time, and the power of the Five Elements is precisely the nemesis of the Demon Race, and this kind of monk is called the Son of Heavenly Punishment by the Demon Race. It means that the human beings sent by God to punish the demons, whether there is really a child of heavenly punishment in this world, is an unknown mystery. When Xiao Ziruo's father heard Xiao Ziruo's inquiry, he gave Xiao Ziruo a brief introduction to the legend of the Son of Heavenly Punishment.

Xiao Ziruo is no stranger to the method of destroying the demon race, but for a monk to be a fellow practitioner of the five elements, within the scope of Xiao Ziruo's understanding of cultivation, this is almost impossible, and at this moment, Xiao Ziruo's face instinctively showed an incredible expression. He blurted out: "Daddy! How is this possible for fellow practitioners of the Five Elements! Not to mention that a monk with the spiritual root of the Five Elements often takes more than five times more time to cultivate, and the higher the level of cultivation, the more powerful the Five Elements will become. Then Wu Gongzi has obviously reached the Spirit King stage, how did he overcome the problem of the five elements being mutually reinforcing?"

"How to overcome the five elements of mutual restraint is not impossible. The demons are stronger than us humans, why are the Mayan plains where we live rich in products? And the demon clan lives in the barren plain?" Just as Xiao Ziruo asked this series of questions with an unbelievable face, the patriarch of the Xiao family opened his mouth and said.

The words of the head of the Xiao family. Not only did Xiao Ziruo feel surprised, but also the other high-level officials of the Xiao family, they were no strangers to the legend of the Son of Heavenly Punishment, but they never thought about why humans lived in the rich Mayan Plain, while the demons lived in the desolate and uninhabited plains, until now when they heard the head of the Xiao family mention this problem, they faintly felt that there were some secrets hidden in the legend of the Son of Heavenly Punishment that they didn't know.

At this time, Xiao Ziruo's father, Xiao Youbin, immediately answered and asked Xiao Youming, "Big brother, we really haven't thought about this question before, do you know the reason? And do we human monks really have the method of the Five Elements Fellow Practitioners?"

Xiao Youming heard Xiao Youbin's inquiry, and saw the expectant expressions of his brothers, he couldn't help but let out a light sigh, and said: "This matter was originally a secret passed down from generation to generation by the heads of the family, and since I said it myself today, then I will make an exception and tell you about the legend of the son of heavenly punishment!"

When Xiao Youming said this, he paused slightly, and then said: " Tens of thousands of years ago, there was no distinction between our human race and the Mayan Plain, but lived together in the Mayan Plain, and then a very bloodthirsty king appeared among the demons, in his eyes, we humans are just a weak race, they are the real masters of the Tianqian Continent, we humans are not qualified to share the rich Mayan Plains with them, and more importantly, he found that eating us humans can strengthen their bodies, so he tried to destroy our humans. ”

"At the beginning, the attack of the demon clan caught us off guard, just at the critical moment when our human race was in a critical moment of life and death, a sect called the Heaven Swallowing Gate suddenly appeared, the disciples of this sect are all five elements of the same practitioners, the human monks under their leadership, successfully smashed the conspiracy of the demon race, and drove the demon race from the Mayan Plain as a barren plain, and the disciple of this Heaven Swallowing Gate is the son of heavenly punishment in the mouth of the demon race. ”

"After our human race defeated the demon race, the Swallowing Heaven Gate became the excessive master of the human race, taking away a lot of resources and territory, although the various sects and families did not say anything on the surface, but they were very dissatisfied in their hearts, thinking that the success of driving the demons out of the Mayan Plain was not only the credit of the Swallowing Heaven Gate family, but also the Swallowing Heaven Gate was only tens of thousands of people, why did the Swallowing Heaven Gate monopolize so much territory. ”

At that time, the prince of the demon clan also clearly realized that as long as the Heaven Swallowing Gate existed, it would be impossible for them to return to the Mayan Plain, let alone destroy the human race, so they used the greed of the human race to provoke all sects and factions to join forces to deal with the Heaven Swallowing Gate. ”

"Because the Heaven Swallowing Gate occupies a huge territory and resources, it was originally very covetous to all factions and families, but under the provocation of the demons, the factions forgot that it was the Heaven Swallowing Gate that saved them at a critical time, and even ignored that if there was no existence of the Heaven Swallowing Gate, the demons would definitely make a comeback, thinking that with the existence of the swamp forest, they would be able to sit back and relax and quietly unite to deal with the Heaven Swallowing Gate. ”

"Although the disciples of the Heaven Swallowing Gate are very powerful because of the Five Elements of the same practitioners, the number of disciples of the Heaven Swallowing Gate is too small, and in the end, under the alliance of the various factions, except for a small number of disciples who successfully escaped, all the rest were destroyed by the various factions. ”

"As a result, just when the various factions were preparing to divide the territory, there was just a drought in the swamp forest that year, and hundreds of demons successfully passed through the swamp forest, and launched an attack on our humans, losing the help of the Heaven Devouring Gate, and losing those sons of heavenly punishment, the results of the human race can be imagined. ”

"At that time, it was only the pioneers of the demons who passed through the swamp forest, but these hundreds of demons still let the factions retreat, and at that time, the follow-up troops of the demons also began to prepare to pass through the swamp forest, and as a result, when the human race was at stake, a heavy rain completely shattered the plan of the demon prince, giving the human activities a chance to survive, and finally we humans succeeded in eliminating the hundreds of demons, but we also paid a more painful price. ”

"After that war ended, the various factions and families knew how stupid it was for them to destroy the Heaven Devouring Gate, and they also understood that the swamp forest could not protect the safety of human beings forever, and it was precisely for this reason that although there were often conflicts between various families and sects for some interests, whenever there was a dry season in the swamp forest, the various sects and families would always put aside their prejudices and resist the invasion of the demons together. ”

"And this history is undoubtedly a lifelong stain on all factions and families, so the truth about the Son of Heavenly Punishment has become a secret for all factions and families, so what I said today after you leave here, you must not talk about it like it. ”

"Swallowing Heaven Gate!, why do I seem to have heard this name there?" Just when Xiao Youming told the top of the Xiao family, Xiao Ziruo, who was sitting on the side, felt that this name was a little familiar when he heard the name Swallowing Heaven Gate, and couldn't help but say to himself.

Although Xiao Ziruo's words were not very loud, they aroused everyone's curiosity, Xiao Youbin saw Xiao Ziruo with a puzzled face, and immediately thought of Wu Hanqi who saved Xiao Ziruo, and said curiously: "Ruo'er! Where did you hear the name Swallowing Heaven Gate? Is it the Wu Gongzi who saved you?"

Xiao Ziruo heard her father mention Wu Hanqi, and suddenly felt her eyes light up, and blurted out: "That's right! It's Wu Gongzi, after his two subordinates took out the magic crystals from the demon clan, he once said that the demon clan's magic crystals are of great help to the cultivation of their disciples of the Heaven Swallowing Gate, and I am sure that Wu Gongzi is from the Heaven Swallowing Gate." ”

Hearing that Xiao Ziruo confirmed that Wu Hanqi was a disciple of the Heaven Swallowing Gate, the mystery shrouded in the hearts of the high-level members of the Xiao family was finally completely solved, and he even guessed the truth that Wu Hanqi was unwilling to be a guest at their Xiao family, but this news still made the high-level of the Xiao family feel very shocked, especially the patriarch of the Xiao family, he could never have imagined that the Heaven Swallowing Gate, which was destroyed by the joint efforts of various factions tens of thousands of years ago, reappeared.

At this time, Xiao Youming suddenly stood up from his seat and asked Xiao Ziruo with a stern expression: "Ziruo, is that Wu Gongzi still in Luoyang City? Did he say that he was going there? Or what did he want to do? Can you recall what he and his two guards said along the way, and see if you can find more useful clues?" )
