Chapter 812: The Truth About the Falling God
Heng Huo: "This is a long story."
Xia Feng: "Then let me make it short."
“This matter must begin with”
The woman in the black cloak was confused for a moment, then she snapped her fingers and looked up. "Well, it has to start from three thousand years ago!"
Xia Feng glanced outside. Those Saint Realm masters who had escaped had already sneaked back one after another. Helplessly, he turned back and said, "Lord Henghuo, we don't have much time."
"Three thousand years ago, Ayi attempted to reach the true path of the Void Law, but ultimately lost to fate. He was severely injured by the backlash, and cracks appeared in his godhead."
Xia Feng didn't understand what the virtual method and true way were, but he roughly understood that Zhuguo Gu Yi tried to become stronger, but failed and backfired.
As she murmured, the expression of the woman in the black cloak gradually turned colder. "That old charlatan Xiahou Nian took advantage of this opportunity and joined forces with the Shang family and the Huanshen to launch a surprise attack on Ayi! Haha~haha~ Later, I learned that they had been planning this for a thousand years, waiting for Ayi to fail in breaking through the void. At that time, I happened to be in the nightmare realm, and these three thieves took advantage of it! In just two days, Yi's divine path was broken, his godhead was shattered, and his soul was destroyed! They used the god-killing method that they had been brewing for a thousand years to completely wipe out his ability to reincarnate."
The more she spoke, the lower her voice became, and her eyes became more confused and dull, but the murderous intent and hostility in her body rose rapidly again, and it was extremely cold.
Xia Feng was startled and subconsciously took a half step back.
Fortunately, within the realm of this light column, the woman in the black cloak still had her sanity and did not go crazy. She just kept muttering, "Until I rush back to Xumi, everything will be too late."
Listening to the story, Xia Feng was actually quite shocked. Pillar of the State Gu Yi actually died at the hands of his own people?
Three thousand years ago, only the news of Gu Yi's death was reported, but the specific reason was unknown. At least there were very few records of this incident in history books.
However, there has always been a vague and unified speculation among the people that the Second Pillar State and the E Clan had conspired to assassinate the founding general, Lord Gu Yi. This caused the entire empire to be outraged, and all regions fell into a very chaotic uprising.
Not long after, an unprecedented imperial civil war began, sweeping across fifty-one regions.
The second pillar of the country, Xiahou Nian, also died in this civil war, and the second pillar of the country existed in name only.
Seeing that her emotions had calmed down, Xia Feng asked cautiously, "So, what is the purpose of these three people's existence?"
"Purpose? Oh, of course."
Heng Huo raised his eyes, his cold gaze piercing through the beam of light, casting towards this world, "Sumeru Throne!"
"Um?"
"In other words, only Xiahou Nian's goal is to obtain the Xumi Throne and turn it into a divine relic. The Shang family's goal is simply to ascend to the position of a pillar of state. As for Huan Bitch..."
At this point, the woman in the black cloak closed her eyes silently, "It was this prince who harmed Ayi, and the goddess Huan was also involved, probably for the sake of Huanhuan's power."
"Perhaps my level is too low to understand." Xia Feng said doubtfully, "The Xumi Throne has the ability to seize godhood, but Xiahou Nian has already become a god and possesses his own godhood. What use would it have for him to steal this thing?"
"Who knows!" The woman in the black cloak sneered, "That old guy was a charlatan before he became a god. He talks nonsense all day long. No one can guess what he is thinking. He is very cunning."
Okay? Xia Feng frowned and pondered, feeling even more puzzled in his heart.
"So, the death of Gu Yizhuguo was indeed the fuse of the civil war in the empire."
"But from my limited historical knowledge, it seems the civil war was initiated by the Fourth Gate against the Second Gate, with various factions subsequently joining the battlefield and jointly attacking the Second Gate. At the time, Shang Jue was still the Grand Commander. Logically, Shang Jue and Xiahou Nian were enemies."
It was after that battle that Shang Jue became a pillar of the state.
Thinking of this, Xia Feng paused and nodded, "Okay, I understand."
Heng Huo knew that it was three thieves who attacked Zhuguo Gu Yi, but no one in the world knew it.
The people only knew that it was Xiahou Nian who was behind the incident. As for Shang Jue and Huan Shen, they were completely invisible. Even before Xiahou Nian's death, he never gave the two of them away.
Could it be that Shang Jue and Xia Hou Nian were putting on a show for the world? Xia Feng's dark pupils narrowed slightly, his eyelids twitching wildly. The cost of the second goalpost's destruction, the cost of billions of casualties across the empire—was this a bit too much?
Well, the more likely possibility is that the three villains had an internal conflict because of the distribution of the Xumi throne. In the end, Shang Jue not only wanted to become a pillar of the country, but also wanted to get the Xumi throne, so he took the opportunity to harm Xiahou Nian.
If that's the case, then this new pillar of the country is really awesome.
Xia Feng pondered, looking up at the sky thoughtfully. "So, even though Gu Yi passed away three thousand years ago, the Xumi Throne still didn't fall into the hands of these three people. Instead, it appeared in the form of selecting an heir, stirring up trouble in all directions. Why is this?"
Heng Huo shook his head. "The Huan God helped Xiahou Nian deal with Ayi, and Xiahou Nian helped the Huan God deal with me. I also died along with the Huan God not long after that, so I naturally don't know what happened after that."
"However, the selection of an heir is indeed the inherent rule of the Xumi Throne."
"This was originally designed by Yi so that if he were to perish in a future war between gods and the Imaginary King's Court, a successor could use the throne to quickly create a true god or even a celestial god for the empire. This is a mechanism similar to inheritance selection."
"It's a pity that this idiot didn't realize that instead of dying in the inevitable future war of the gods, he would die at the hands of his own people. Haha~"
The woman in the black cloak's tone was full of sarcasm, and she was filled with endless helplessness and bewilderment. Finally, she sighed and fell into silence.
“.”
Xia Feng also fell silent, but after a moment, he was awakened by the roar of fighting outside. It was Huang Zhaoyue fighting with someone.
Xia Feng slapped his forehead, "Wait! So, what does this have to do with me and Yue Hongli having a daughter?"
The woman in the black cloak said, "Ah? Well, it's okay."
"??! It's okay, you're so... what are you talking about for so long?!!"
"Hey, hey, what's wrong with being alone for a long time and wanting to talk more? Xiaoli, you are not a good master. You have no patience at all. Unlike me and the king, I am very patient. Oh, yes, speaking of patience..."
"!!" Xia Feng wanted to beat someone up, really. Although, even if he did, he couldn't beat this talkative girl.
"Bang——"
At the same time, outside.
"Your Highness, what's the matter? Do you want to stop us by yourself?"
A mocking voice was heard, and four male and female figures stood separately, hanging above the thundercloud.
The black and white female figure stood in front of the light column with her hands behind her back.
Between the two sides, a dark line of fire stretched across the sky and earth. Huang Zhaoyue's eyes were dark, and his expression remained indifferent from beginning to end. His magnificent voice echoed throughout the world:
"This king has said, whoever crosses this line will die."
