Seeing her clear eyes, Zu'an knew she just didn't want him to worry about her, and his heart ached. He held her hand tightly and said, "Xiao Xi, don't worry, I will definitely help you find those things to treat your special constitution."

Jiang Luofu also squatted down beside her and gently comforted her, "Xiao Xi, everyone will help you. You must not give up hope."

Ji Xiaoxi hummed in agreement. She didn't care too much about the outcome, but if her brother Zu could keep holding her hand like this, it seemed that nothing would be so scary no matter what happened.

Seeing that Ji Xiaoxi, despite her detestable poisonous body, was still being fawned over, Salami was quite displeased and couldn't help but sarcastically remark, "You came into contact with so many poisons in the dungeon before, and you even refined a domineering poison that could poison the Demon Lord. Your innate Evil Poison Saint Body has already been awakened. Even without my interference, your physique would have awakened soon. You still think you'll be fine for the rest of your life?"

Zu An's expression turned cold: "Shut up, are you looking for death?"

Salami raised her chin, not caring about anything else at this point: "I'm just telling the truth. Besides, you promised to release us. A great hero like you wouldn't go back on your word, would you?"

Zaun took a deep breath, calmed himself down, ignored her, and looked at Morgard instead:

"We'll ask you a few questions. Answer them well and we'll let you go."

Moghad bowed and said, "Thank you, please ask whatever you wish."

"You must have accompanied the Lord of Slaughter to invade this world during that era. What was the battle like back then? Tell me roughly about it." Zaun needed to know as much information about this world as possible.

Mogard breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this question: "When the old master discovered this world, he did not expect it to be so powerful. He only sent his generals to lead troops, but they suffered heavy losses. In particular, the demon emperor of this world was very powerful and killed many of our strongmen."

"The Demon Emperor?" Zu An's heart stirred.

“That’s right. It seems that there are many different races in this world, but the demon race holds an absolute dominant position, and other races all bow down to the demon emperor…” Mogard explained.

The expressions of the many humans present were rather strange. They were used to the fact that humans were in a dominant position, but they did not expect that the situation would be reversed in this era.

Jiang Luofu fell into deep thought. She was well-read and knew that the demon race used to have an absolute advantage. However, the demon race suddenly declined significantly, which allowed the human race to rise and gradually surpass the demon race in strength. After several rounds of bloody battles between the two races, the human race was finally driven to the bitterly cold land of the far north.

Countless scholars have studied the reasons for the sudden decline of the demon race, and various theories have been proposed, but no one has been able to convince anyone else. Now it seems that the reason may lie in the large-scale invasion of the demon world.

Mogard continued, "However, our demon world is so powerful that it has already conquered countless powerful worlds. Upon learning of the defeat at the front, the old master decided to personally lead the expedition, bringing me, the Demon Lord, and many other experts with him. As a result, the resistance forces of this world could no longer hold out and quickly retreated."

“Wait a minute,” Zaun suddenly looked at Mogard, “From the various intelligence I’ve gathered, you used to have a very high status, and you were even a powerful figure on par with the Demon Lord. Although your cultivation is good now, it doesn’t seem to be as strong as you should be.”

Even if the Lord of Demons later became the master of the world and had more resources, it's hard to imagine that Morgad, with his current level of cultivation, could serve as the Lord of Slaughter's right-hand man.

Upon hearing this, Mogad looked somewhat dejected: "That's because I was once seriously injured, which damaged my very essence, causing my cultivation to regress instead of advance. If it weren't for that, the young lady wouldn't have suffered so much over the years."

Salami comforted him, "Uncle Mo, you've already helped me a lot, there's no need to blame yourself."

Upon hearing her words, Mogad was immediately energized, as if all the grievances he had suffered over the years had been worthwhile.

"Seriously injured?" Zuan suddenly thought of a possibility. "Could it be that you were injured in this era?"

“That’s right,” a hint of confusion suddenly appeared in Mogard’s eyes. “I was indeed injured during this attack on the cultivation world, but strangely, I don’t remember how I was injured.”

"Don't you remember?" Zuan frowned, finding this strange.

"Yes, I was also very puzzled by this. I tried many methods afterward, and then I heard a divine doctor say that my condition was most likely due to a head injury, which caused some memory loss. In addition, I had to protect the young lady from the clutches of the Demon Lord, so I gradually stopped caring about this matter." Mogard's eyes were somewhat dejected as he spoke. It would be a lie to say that he didn't care about the situation after falling from a master who was on par with the Demon Lord.

But after thousands of years, even if we knew exactly how we got hurt, it would be meaningless.

Seeing this, Zu'an asked again, "Tell me what happened after that great battle?"

"What else could happen?" Mogade said with a hint of pride. "With the old master personally taking action, and all the powerful figures from the demon world coming out, how could the resistance forces of this world possibly withstand it?"

"With the demon emperor killed, the demon army collapsed, and the world's defeat was inevitable," Moghad then changed the subject, "but perhaps this is a case of 'too much of a good thing'. Having dismantled the main force of resistance in this world, the old master, seeing that the situation was settled, no longer personally participated in the war, but instead went to the demon royal tomb to study something and never appeared again..."

Upon hearing this, Zu An was startled: "The Demon Clan's Royal Tomb?"
