"I didn't lie to you before, it's just that I do know your mother, but I'm not familiar with her and I don't understand her well."
A flash of memory flashed through Chi Hao's eyes, and he continued, "In fact, your mother is the woman your father met. But unfortunately, she, who was not your mother at that time, did not like your father and even fought with him.
It's funny to say that your father, a peak Spirit Emperor, couldn't even defeat your mother. This is also something that surprised me, because your mother looked much younger than us at that time."
"Is my mother... pretty?" the boy asked.
"To be honest, your mother's appearance isn't outstanding, just above average. But I don't know why, but she has a special charm. Perhaps it's this charm that attracted your father."
"What happened next?" the boy continued.
"Later, your father and I separated. After your mother and your father fought, she left, and your father followed your mother. I continued to travel the continent on my own."
Chi Hao sighed, "Although your father and I didn't spend much time together, we had a deep mutual admiration for each other. It was five years later that we met again.
At that time, I was in the Southern Region and was hunted by five Spirit Lords because I had offended a powerful force. The strongest one among them had reached the strength of an eighth-level Spirit Lord, while I was only a fourth-level Spirit Lord. In that battle, I was seriously injured and my energy lamp went out. Just when I thought I was about to die, your father suddenly appeared in front of me.
Five years later, when I saw your father again, he had become a ninth-level Spirit Lord, five levels higher than me!
What’s even more terrifying is that five years ago, he was only at the peak of the Spiritual Emperor level!
At this point, Chi Hao let out a wry smile. "Your father's talent is far superior to mine. I'm truly inferior to him. That time, your father directly killed two of the other Spirit Lords and severely injured three, but he managed to save me. It was then that I learned that your father and your mother, that woman, had become Daoist couples three years earlier."
"Is my father so powerful? If so, then my mother was able to fight with my father before, so her strength must be quite strong too?" asked the boy.
"Well, your current strength... is indeed terrifying! When they met again, your mother was as powerful as your father, a ninth-level Spiritual Lord!"
The boy was shocked by Chi Hao's words.
"My mother is so strong?"
"That's right! It's because of your father and mother's terrifying talents that your talent is even more abnormal!"
"What happened next? What happened to my father and mother?"
Chi Haodu's face turned bitter. "On the third day after you rescued me, a terrifying aura suddenly descended upon us. I noticed that after that person arrived, your mother was terrified. That look didn't seem like that of a ninth-level Spirit Lord!"
"Who on earth is that person? Could he be a powerful Spirit Saint who could frighten a powerful being like my mother?"
"That's right, the one who descended that day was a Saint! Moreover, he was an awakened Demon Saint!"
"Demon Saint? The Demon Saint of the Domain Demon?"
The boy stood up suddenly, his face pale. "Domain Demon, why is there a Domain Demon here? What happened to my father and mother?"
"Xiao Yuan, actually I don't want to tell you about this, but... you have to remember that your adoptive father is definitely not doing this to harm you!" Chi Hao suddenly said.
The boy was stunned. "What do you mean?"
Chi Hao raised his hand and knocked the boy unconscious, muttering, "This matter has been weighing on my heart for a long time, but I can't tell you everything. It's actually better if you don't know!"
Chi Hao held the boy in his arms and looked at his childish face, "Your eyelashes are very long, which is very similar to your mother, and your nose is like your father.
After today, you will no longer be my adopted son, Chi Hao, nor will you be a member of the Chi clan. On the contrary, if I succeed this time, you will have a brand new life. At that time, you will forget everything now and have your own life again! "
Chi Hao's eyes were slightly red. "I know it's unfair to you, but it has come to this point, which is beyond my control. I can only apologize to you. Don't blame me, child!"
Chi Hao raised his hand and gently placed it on the boy's forehead. The terrifying power of his soul erupted crazily...
Half an hour later, Chi Hao finally walked out of the cave with a hint of self-blame and reluctance in his eyes.
The next day, undercurrents surged within and outside the Chi clan.
The Central Region was quite restless at this time, because everyone knew that the deadline promised by the three major powers had arrived!
In the Chi clan, a guard ran into the side hall in a panic.
"Report - Clan leader, the people from the three major forces outside have surrounded the Chi clan, and no one can get out. What should we do now?"
In the side hall, Chi Hao sat in the main seat, and dozens of old and middle-aged people sat below him.
"Everyone, today is the day for my Chi clan to make a decision!" Chi Hao said lightly.
"Chief, that child is the son of the demon and the human race, he cannot be kept alive!"
As soon as Chi Hao opened his mouth, someone immediately stood up and spoke.
As soon as this person spoke, several people behind him immediately stood up and echoed, "Chief! The three major forces have now arrived at our doorstep! Our Chi clan cannot be destroyed because of that kid!"
"Yes, Clan Leader! We didn't know before, but now that we've verified it, we should let the three major forces handle it. The demons and our human race are sworn enemies. Raising him until now is already our fault!"
"Chief! Chi Ling requests that you hand over the demons! Hand them over to the three major forces for fair treatment, as a warning to the world!"
What's more, some people even knelt down and spoke with great emotion.
Looking at the reactions of the group of people below, Chi Hao was not surprised at all.
"Great Elder, what do you mean?"
Chi Hao looked at the Great Elder and asked calmly.
"Clan leader, even if he is from the demon clan, part of his bloodline is human. He cannot be considered a true demon clan member at all. Moreover, he is still a child. He has no chance to choose. We cannot kill such an innocent and peerless genius like this!"
"Great Elder, what you said is wrong! He is not of our race, so his heart must be different! This boy has been raised by our clan until now. Our clan has made a big mistake. We can't let him grow up any longer, otherwise it will be a disaster for the Wuchi clan! It will be a disaster for our human race!" Someone jumped out and shouted.
The Great Elder looked at the man and sneered, "That child is innocent. He has always been kind to others and would not even harm flowers or plants. He has long considered himself a member of the Chi Clan. Are you saying that the people of my Chi Clan are a disaster?"
"You! Great Elder, you are trying to change the subject!"
Others didn't dare to confront the Great Elder, but the Third Elder did!
"Haha, my Chi clan can stand firm in the Central Region, so why should we be afraid of a child? Third Elder, you are really regressing as you grow older!"
