At this time, Hua Wuxiu was speechless. His hands were trembling and he looked at those people with some fear.
Those people were all members of their spirit race, more than thirty of them.
The spirit race is already rare, and now there are so many of them, which is more than in the past.
When Yaoyao and the others heard this, they looked in the direction she pointed.
"Who is he? Yaoyao doesn't know him."
However, an elderly man from the Spirit Clan walked forward with a trembling body and a cane. He looked at Hua Wuxiu in disbelief.
He asked carefully, "Is it...is it the monarch?"
"Uncle Xun..."
Hua Wuxiu spoke with a sob, not knowing for a moment how to face the person in front of him.
Xun Bo instantly burst into tears. He walked over, took Hua Wuxiu's hand, and said excitedly, "Lord, is it really you? This old servant has really been waiting for you. Master Baiqi said you wouldn't die, and it turns out it's true. You really are not dead, you are still alive. This is so great, so great."
"Xun Bo...how did you recognize me?" Hua Wuxiu asked, his voice trembling slightly.
Xun Bo smiled kindly, "I've watched you grow up, so I recognized you at a glance. Isn't your body raised at Lingfeng? Why did you possess this demon king?"
Hua Wuxiu's face turned pale, and he said, "Spiritual Peak? Is my body really being kept in Spiritual Peak?"
Xun Bo smiled and nodded. He was a kind old man with a long white beard. "Yes, it's all thanks to Master Baiqi. He is our great benefactor. Back then, he, Sect Master Bai, and Sect Master Lu worked together to rescue us and sent us to Taoyuan. Now that our spirit race doesn't come out into the world, we are much safer."
"When you meet Master Baiqi, you must repay him well, as well as Sect Master Lu and Sect Master Bai. If it weren't for them, our Spiritual Race would have been destroyed long ago."
As soon as these words fell, Hua Wuxiu's figure trembled instantly. He took two steps back and asked with some trembling, "Master Baiqi saved... you?"
Xun Bo sighed, "Yes, back then, Master Baiqi deceived everyone and sent us away. Everyone thought we were dead, but that's how we got this peace."
"Your body is also protected by Master Baiqi in Lingfeng. He said that he will send you back when the time comes. I have waited for so long and finally see you. Why didn't the Lord return to his body? Did something go wrong?" Xun Bo said, very nervous.
Hua Wuxiu felt like he was struck by lightning and almost lost his balance.
It’s actually true…
So, are all the things Shen Yushu said true?
Xun Bo immediately understood what Hua Wuxiu was looking at. He asked with a trembling voice, "Lord, are you seeking revenge on Master Baiqi and the others? Is that right?"
"I…"
Hua Wuxiu wanted to say something but stopped himself, unable to utter a word.
"You, you, you... you're so confused!" Xun Bo said sadly, pounding his crutch. "Where are Master Baiqi and the others? Where are they now?"
“Dead…”
Hua Wuxiu spoke with a gloomy look, still finding it hard to accept this fact.
Xun Bo's lips trembled, and he staggered. "Did you force them to death?"
With just a few simple words, Xun Bo knew what Hua Wuxiu had done, because this was the child he had raised.
"Yes." Hua Wuxiu responded expressionlessly.
Xun Bo burst into tears and started beating Hua Wuxiu with his cane, saying as he beat him, "How could you force Baiqi Zhenren and the others to death? They were our great benefactors. If it weren't for them, would our Spirit Clan still exist? You are so confused, so confused!"
Hua Wuxiu stiffened and clenched his hands. "What about me? My soul has been sealed for a thousand years, and I witnessed my body being dismembered and discarded. I know nothing, and no one told me. For these thousand years, revenge has been my only hope of survival."
The crutch that Xun Bo had dropped on him instantly froze in mid-air. He took it back with a sad expression, "Lord, have you forgotten what this old servant told you back then? You didn't believe it."
Hua Wuxiu was stunned for a moment. The memory was too old and he couldn't remember it for a moment.
I only heard Xun Bo say, "At that time, this old servant told you that if you just faked your death, Baiqi Zhenren would be able to help us escape. What do you think..."
I said?
What did I say?
Hua Wuxiu suddenly realized something and remembered that the dark dungeon without sunlight was where they, the spirit people, were imprisoned. They were humiliated every day, unable to live or die.
"Lord, that Daoist Fellow Si said he could rescue us. As long as we cooperate with him and fake our own deaths, we can leave. By then, everyone will think we are dead, and we won't have to endure these disasters anymore."
At that time, Xun Bo did not have the white beard he has now, and there was anticipation in his words.
"Rescue us? Assist him in faking his own death? I think he wants us to die for real to cover up these filthy things. The people of the Immortal Sect are in cahoots with each other, so despicable and mean. How can we trust them? I will remember this day's grudge. One day, I will make the entire Immortal Sect apologize to me for the wrongs I have suffered today!"
Hua Wuxiu opened his mouth, and the distant memory emerged, and the words seemed to be heard in his ears.
"Because you, my Lord, didn't believe me, I, Baiqi Zhenren, had no choice but to arrange a great fire, making everyone think we were dead. You saw us die in that fire with your own eyes, and you thought we were really dead. Seeing your appearance at that time, this old servant was heartbroken."
"I wanted to go look for you secretly, but Master Baiqi said that if we were acting, we had to act it out for real to be believable. Then you escaped and were slandered by the Immortal Sect. I was heartbroken, but I didn't dare to look for you, for fear of ruining Master Baiqi's plan."
"Later, you nearly killed all the members of the Immortal Sect and even forged a killing sword, nearly causing great suffering to all living beings in the human world. After the Immortal Sect captured you, in order to give an explanation to the world, Master Baiqi forged an immortal-level puppet to torture you, thus concealing the truth from the world."
