Looking at Mu Huan's curious face, the three grown men were helpless.
"It's the one called Yun Changfeng!" In the end, it was Qi Chu who answered Mu Huan's questions.
"Yun Changfeng?" Now it was Mu Huan's turn to be surprised. Everyone said that Yun Changfeng was the number one genius in their Cang Xiu country and was also famous for his righteousness. He didn't expect that he would be willing to accept the inheritance of the demon clan, which he hated the most?
"Regarding this Demon God inheritance, did he choose to do so voluntarily? Or was it forced upon him?"
"It doesn't look like a forced sale!" Mu Chen said casually while wiping the black iron sword in his arms.
The desire for power among people in the world is almost the same. No one will give up such a great opportunity to become stronger. This legendary genius from the capital is still a little short of it!
"Let's not talk about this for now!" After saying that, Mu Qing took out a piece of yellowed parchment from his wide sleeves and spread it out on the table so that everyone could see it clearly.
"This was given to me by a senior when I was in the Demon Prison."
"Brother Mu, did you go to the Demon Prison?" Obviously, Mu Huan's focus was on this.
Without waiting for Mu Qing to speak, Mu Huan spoke up. "I read in ancient books that the demons are known as the most brutal of all races, so their prisons have all sorts of punishments, said to make life worse than death. Brother Mu, you've managed to get out unharmed?"
"It was that senior who saved me!" Mu Qing felt ashamed to say this, "The senior told me a lot of things, including some of the beginnings of the war a thousand years ago." In fact, he didn't believe it at first, after all, the senior was also a demon, but after he told him everything, he began to believe everything he said.
"Did you gain anything?" I never thought there would be such a good demon in the demon prison!
"That war was instigated by the human race!" He didn't believe it at first, but after listening to the explanation of his senior, almost everything became clear to him.
Next, Mu Qing told Mu Huan and the others everything.
Thousands of years ago, all races were in a state of near-peace, each living in peace without interfering with the other. However, the end of all peace came from the ambition of the Demon Emperor.
At that time, the continent was ruled by a royal family, and four kingdoms coexisted peacefully. However, everything changed when an emperor named Long He emerged. Long He was extremely ambitious, and within a few years, he destroyed the other three kingdoms and unified the entire continent.
However, Long He felt that being the king of the human race alone was not enough to satisfy his deep-seated desire to conquer the world. He began to deploy forces and turned his attention to other races. However, the human race was too weak, far inferior to the other races, each of which had its own unique and powerful characteristics.
So Long He turned his attention to the demons who had been in the dark. If he could cooperate with the demons, things would be twice as easy to get with half the effort. Wouldn't everything be in his pocket?
He privately found the Demon King and explained his idea to him, saying that if the plan succeeded, the entire world would belong to the two of them. The Demon King was tempted, but he was not a fool and would not let Long He manipulate him. He secretly kept a trick and agreed to Long He's proposal on the surface.
The two races joined forces, especially the leaders of the two races, who were all vicious and cunning. Their methods of dealing with other races were too brutal, which led to successive counterattacks from other races. The other races began to fight back under the leadership of the gods.
It was just that the gods had the advantage when they started to fight back at the beginning, but no one knew what happened in the middle, and the gods and ghosts turned against each other. The foreign war had not yet ended, and the civil war had quietly begun.
Smoke of gunpowder filled the air, and the wars among the various ethnic groups disturbed the entire continent. The war lasted for a long time, and both sides were unwilling to stop the war first. In the end, they directly angered the Judge of the Plane, who invited the God of Creation, who had long since returned to chaos. The God of Creation used thunder to forcibly stop the disaster.
From that moment on, each tribe was forcibly separated into its own corner, with no tribe allowed to cross the boundaries and remain within their own tribe. Following this incident, the human race was also forcibly split into two parts: one is now the Upper Plane, and the other is now the Lower Plane.
The humans of the upper plane, once sworn to follow Long He, revere the strong and violent. The lower planes, on the other hand, are the peaceful faction, refusing to honor the emperor. Humanity fought among themselves, vying for the spiritually abundant upper plane, but ultimately the peaceful faction was outnumbered and defeated. However, both sides agreed not to enter the other's territory first, as doing so would be considered a violation of the contract, and the party in the right could decide the outcome at will.
By the time Mu Qing finished speaking, it was almost daybreak outside. It was hazy, and the sound of birdsong could be heard through the window, which was quite pleasant.
But what Mu Qing said made several people fall into deep thought, and they had no mood to appreciate the so-called beautiful scenery.
"No wonder we no longer have an imperial system. It turns out this is the origin of it." Mu Huan supported his chin with both hands and tapped his face lightly with his fingers. After hearing this, it seemed as if all the confusion in his heart was resolved.
"Do you still remember the people we met last time when we went to Yundou Forest?" Qi Chu took a sip of water and put down the cup again.
"Achu, are you saying that the upper realm has long wanted to break the contract?" Mu Huan opened her eyes wide. She also remembered those people from the upper realm, but seeing how they fled in panic at the end, she felt that they should not have come down so blatantly.
"I'm not too sure about this, but the only thing that is certain is that some people in the upper realm have begun to stir." Qi Chu's eyes were cold. It was good that they came. After all, some things had to be asked back from them in person. Things that did not belong to them would eventually return to their original owners one day.
Several people sat around the table all night, and Tan Tai Luo, who was drunk and sleeping soundly, woke up by tossing and turning.
Tan Tailuo rubbed his head, feeling a nauseous headache. After shaking it, he felt a little better. Turning around, he saw Mu Huan and the others not far from his bed. Waking up from this sleep was really a bit scary!
"Um, you guys, did you guys sit here all night?" That shouldn't be the case. Although I didn't see her sleeping, I still felt weird. You said she didn't do anything indecent last night, right? Oh my god, Tan Tailuo wanted to die!
"What do you think?" Mu Huan stood up and walked over. "You're so kind! You got drunk right after the party started, and you had to have us carry you back home. You should really thank Brother Mu!"
Remember!!! The last sentence is the key point!!!
"I, I remember I didn't drink much, so how come I got drunk?" Tan Tai Luo scratched his head and smiled guiltily.
No! What did Huanhuan just say? Thank you, Brother Mu? Could it be that Brother Mu was the one who carried her back home last night?! Damn it! Her image is completely ruined!
She shouldn’t be heavy...right!
