#1620 - It's dark. OK, it's time to call it a day.
The Corrupt Dragon King already had a face full of smiles, no longer resembling the arrogant figure who had previously called Chu Hao an ant.
The Corrupt Dragon King respectfully said, "Whatever you want to know, I can tell you."
Of course, Chu Hao was well aware that the Corrupt Dragon King was stalling for time. To be honest, who wasn't trying to buy time?
Moreover, while stalling for time, he could also get the Corrupt Dragon King to explain things, wouldn't that be even better?
Chu Hao remained very calm and glanced at the Taotie.
"Where did this thing come from in the Western Heaven? And that Soul Jade."
The Corrupt Dragon King hesitated for a moment, pondering how to deceive Chu Hao.
However, Chu Hao narrowed his eyes, and in the next second, the Taotie opened its mouth wide, and a violent suction force instantly surged forth.
The Corrupt Dragon King turned pale with fright.
"Big shot, please stop your divine power! I won't hesitate anymore, I'll tell you everything!"
"That Taotie is a corpse that the Western Heaven obtained from an unknown place, but the strange thing is that the Taotie's corpse doesn't have the aura of corruption. The Western Heaven's Soul Jade also came from an unknown source.
However, it is said that the Western Heaven has the power to connect to the ancient times, so-called connecting the past and present, creating the future. That's what they said at the time."
"Do you believe it yourself? The Dao of Time is difficult for even a Saint to reverse," Chu Hao sneered.
Even the most powerful existence within the Three Realms and Six Paths cannot travel through time and space. Even the Six Sages, and even the Dao Ancestor, cannot accomplish such a feat.
It can be said that since the beginning of Honghuang, no one has been able to achieve such terrifying power. Otherwise, the Three Realms and Six Paths would have already become someone's controlled domain.
The Corrupt Dragon King wore a bitter smile.
"I don't believe it either, but I do know that the Western Heaven seems to be able to access things from the Lich War era.
This Taotie was brought by them from the ancient Lich battlefield. Of course, that's what they said. I also know that this is impossible, but, as far as I know, they don't only have this one corpse."
Chu Hao raised an eyebrow. Although he could tell that the Corrupt Dragon King was intentionally talking nonsense, as the Corrupt Dragon King, a descendant of the Divine Dragon, he couldn't possibly believe that the Western Heaven could travel through time to obtain things from the Lich War, no matter how foolish he was.
However, the latter sentence was the truth. The Western Heaven really had more than just this one puppet of the Taotie.
Could it be that the Western Heaven has an Emperor's Tomb? Like me?
Chu Hao's heart was filled with doubts. If he remembered correctly, the information obtained from the Emperor's Tomb at that time said that during the Lich War, Emperor Jun was one of the very few existences with supreme power in that era, so he could open up the Emperor's Tomb, which was only discovered today…
Wait, just now the Corrupt Dragon King also said that the Western Heaven's so-called traveling to the future, could it really be that they possess a relic similar to the Emperor's Tomb left over from that era?!
If that's the case, it really makes sense. The situation of this Taotie is extremely similar to what I obtained from the Emperor's Tomb, and it can basically be explained as the same thing.
Chu Hao remained calm and continued, "Then don't you also know about the Lich War back then? Especially the final decisive battle. I heard that things weren't as recorded in the history books. I heard that there are still remnants of the Lich War?"
Upon hearing this, the Corrupt Dragon King's heart skipped a beat. How did he know?
However, the Corrupt Dragon King concealed it very well. He smiled flatteringly, "It's true that nothing can escape your eyes. During the Lich War, the pillars of heaven collapsed and the earthly cords broke, and both sides fought like madmen.
However, later, no one knew what happened, but both sides obtained some special power, and their clan power skyrocketed. After agreeing to a decisive battle, they both disappeared into the Three Realms and Six Paths, and even many corpses are still missing.
There are rumors that the Dao Ancestor took action, leaving a glimmer of hope for the Lich clans, waiting for the embers to reignite."
Chu Hao frowned slightly. Dao Ancestor… is it really him?
Chu Hao had seen the image of Emperor Jun entering the Emperor's Tomb. Emperor Jun was a chosen one of that era, one of the masters of that era. He would never be someone who didn't recognize the Dao Ancestor.
But in the end, he created the Emperor's Tomb and entered the Emperor's Tomb, relying on the so-called supreme power.
The Dao Ancestor is the orthodox of Honghuang. Even the Six Sages haven't mastered the supreme power to this day. Could the Dao Ancestor have it himself? And even not pass it on to the Six Sages, but only to the Demon Emperor of that time?
It doesn't make sense, it doesn't make sense at all.
Speaking of which, if the Demon Emperor learned the power of the soul, then what about the side of the Ancestral Witch?
Also being the most pinnacle existence of that era, would the Witch Clan have no way to crack it? But the Witch Clan doesn't have a primordial spirit…
The more Chu Hao thought about it, the more troublesome he found it, so he simply didn't want to think about it anymore, and directly pointed at the Corrupt Dragon King and said:
"Let's not worry about those things for now. Didn't you say that your Nielong clan still has some treasures left over from that time? Hand them over."
Chu Hao's straightforwardness caught the Corrupt Dragon King somewhat off guard.
The Corrupt Dragon King smiled bitterly in a humble manner, "Lord Prison God, our Nielong clan is truly at the end of our rope. You took away the corpses of our ancestors, and we lost our place of protection.
With the remaining bit of treasure left over from that time, our Nielong clan can't even talk about protecting ourselves anymore. Please leave us some, I beg you. I'll kneel down to you."
The Corrupt Dragon King had no dignity at all and slowly knelt down to Chu Hao in front of the Nielong clan.
Upon seeing this, the Nielong clan all showed humble and pitiful expressions on their faces and also knelt down one after another.
They pleaded in unison, "Lord Prison God, please leave a way out for our Nielong clan."
Chu Hao twitched the corner of his mouth,
"Hurry up and get up, if people see it, they'll think I'm swindling people here, get up quickly!"
I only beg Your Majesty to spare my clansmen for the sake of my old face. The treasures of the Nielong clan are their hope for survival in the future! Wuwuwuwu!"
The Corrupt Dragon King cried his heart out,
The Nielong clan behind him also cried loudly, "Patriarch, we can't live without you!"
"We agreed to live together and atone for the past together, you can't abandon us."
"Wuwuwu, patriarch, you have protected us for a lifetime, and now you still have to sacrifice your life, how can we repay you!"
At this moment, the scene of the Nielong clan chief willing to sacrifice himself and the clansmen being reluctant to part was simply touching.
Chu Hao couldn't help but raise his head forty-five degrees, looking up at the sky, seemingly very moved.
After a long while, Chu Hao suddenly lowered his head and said with a smile:
"It's getting dark, alright, time to clock out."
