Chapter 1047 White Moon Brahma Star 12
The demons and the immortals had adjusted their living places on their own, and Jiang Xinxin had learned a lot about the foreign city through various flowers, plants and trees overnight. For example, the subordinate named Tianhuo beside Fan Yue was none other than Huahong, the eldest daughter of the current foreign king Hua Lin and queen Mei Han.
Hua Hong witnessed her mother being forced to death together with her father by the people in the city, so she fell out with Hua Lin and escaped from the city alone. Later, she was rescued by Fan Yue and made a deal with Fan Yue, thus becoming Fan Yue's right-hand man Tianhuo.
Of course, all of this is just Jiang Xinxin's inference based on the description of the flowers and plants in the foreign city. The truth remains to be discussed, but it is certain that Tianhuo is Huahong.
On the other side, Bai Shuo also discovered that among so many demons and immortals who came to participate in the Wutong Martial Banquet, only Tianhuo could use spiritual power, so he went to ask Fan Yue. Fan Yue didn't say much, but also told Bai Shuo that Tianhuo was absolutely trustworthy. Bai Shuo believed in Fan Yue and also believed in Tianhuo.
But Fan Yue was assassinated by the Alien King Hua Lin, which forced Bai Shuo to find Tian Huo to ask for clarification. "I don't know why you can use spiritual power in the alien city, but you and I both know that the reopening of the Wutong Martial Banquet was originally a deal between the Alien King and Fan Yue. Now the Alien King actually sent someone to assassinate Fan Yue, which shows that something must have happened to the Alien King..."
Fan Yue was injured, and Tian Huo felt a little guilty. Bai Shuo was still willing to believe her, so she finally started to talk about her own story:
"My original name was not Tianhuo, but Huahong."
Bai Shuo was shocked, "Could it be that the alien king Hua Lin is you..."
Bai Shuo didn't say those two words, and Tian Huo wouldn't say them either, but she confirmed Bai Shuo's guess, "You're right, my life experience is indeed related to the alien king Hua Lin."
"This alien city did not exist originally. It was the first generation of alien king who obtained several pieces of meteorite iron containing divine power from the East China Sea. Later, he used a secret method to forge the meteorite iron into the Alien King Sword, and used the Alien King Sword containing divine power to open up the alien city, so that the aliens have a stable place to live from then on, and this alien city came into being today."
When Bai Shuo heard this, he felt that the divine power was great and he admired the legendary Goddess of Stars and Moon even more. "This sword of the King of Swords that contains divine power can open up an existence like the Alien City. How graceful must a true god be!"
Tianhuo was amused by Bai Shuo's unexpected reaction. "We don't have the pleasure of seeing the grace of a god, but you have the artifact Wunian Stone left by the Goddess of Stars and Moon in your body. I believe one day you will be able to appreciate the grace of the Goddess of Stars and Moon."
Bai Shuo also had hope, but for now he urged Tianhuo to continue talking about the things in the foreign city. Tianhuo also adjusted his mood, and when he talked about those old things, he was no longer as angry as before.
"Although the Sword of the Alien King has the power to open up the Alien City and maintain the vitality of the city, the power of the Sword of the Alien King is not inexhaustible. Gradually, the Alien King will need to use his blood to maintain its vitality."
"The Alien King Hua Lin is now too weak to withstand the blood drawing every ten years, and he can't even pull out the Alien King Sword. He was able to achieve the throne thanks to my grandfather, General Mei, who sacrificed all his spiritual energy to him. This allowed him to reshape his meridians and bones, making it possible for him to practice, and later he pulled out the Alien King Sword and became the Alien King today."
"And the reason why my grandfather was willing to sacrifice himself was because Hua Lin made a deal with the Mei family, allowing my mother Mei Han to marry Hua Lin, and from then on my mother had to assist Hua Lin wholeheartedly and secure the throne of the Alien King."
"But times have changed, and people's minds have changed. Ten years ago, something unexpected happened in the foreign city. A stone suddenly appeared in the river, and there was an oracle on it saying that my mother Mei Han was the culprit for the famine in the city. Therefore, the people in the city clamored to burn my mother at the stake. Even though Hua Lin was unwilling to give up my mother at first, because of the throne and power, Hua Lin finally sacrificed my mother."
Bai Shuo felt the same way about the Heavenly Fire. Her father was also forced to sacrifice himself by the people of Ning'an City.
But at that time her father was still the mayor of Ning'an City, and sacrificing himself for the people could be considered a worthy death. As a daughter, no matter how much she hated the ungratefulness of those ignorant people, she had to consider her father's reputation during his lifetime and after his death. So as soon as her father passed away, she couldn't wait to change the City Lord's Mansion into the Bai Mansion, in order to express her intention to distance herself from the people of Ning'an City and settle the grudges.
"My father was also betrayed by Bai Xin in Ning'an City. When I saw my father sacrificing himself, I wanted to massacre the whole city. But after my father's funeral, I knew I couldn't do anything to those ignorant people. I could only cut off the City Lord's Mansion by changing the plaque."
"If those people are sensible, they will know that my Bai family will no longer have any so-called responsibilities. If they are still sensible, they will be sent to me for revenge."
Bai Shuo sincerely thought so and planned to do so. Tian Huo couldn't help but smile when he heard it. "You said it nicely. Don't try to ignore it if you really encounter such a situation."
Bai Shuo thought about it carefully and felt that there was a way to solve the problem that the city lord of this strange city needed to sacrifice blood every ten years. "Didn't you guess that the reason why blood sacrifice is needed every ten years to maintain vitality is because of the lack of divine power? If there is divine power that can be injected into the Sword of the Strange King, maybe blood will not be needed."
Tianhuo didn't expect Bai Shuo to say this suddenly. After thinking about it carefully, this move is indeed feasible, but she doesn't want to. "I have wanted to destroy the Yi King Sword and make Yi City no longer exist. Although it seems that it will destroy the homeland where the Yi people have lived peacefully for many years, I always feel that the Yi people can't live in peace in a corner like this. They should look for a suitable place outside."
"The Yi Wang Sword has existed for so many years, and its remaining divine power is probably limited. Even if the Wu Nian Stone has the hope of injecting divine power into the Yi Wang Sword again and maintaining the vitality of Yi City, after a few thousand years, the Yi Wang Sword will still need to be injected with divine power again to maintain its vitality."
"In this case, we might as well actively look for other ways. I am afraid that the aliens have been living in peace in a corner for many years and have lost their enterprising spirit."
Bai Shuo had no way to comfort herself on this point, because she had really left the people of Ning'an City behind, and at this moment the only thing that could concern her was revenge for her father.
But Tianhuo obviously didn't care about Bai Shuo's safety. She had already made up her mind, "I wanted to destroy the Yi Wang Sword back then, but I was not strong enough at that time. I was discovered and expelled from Yi City. Now that I have returned again, I must bring it to an end."
Bai Shuo only felt sorry for Tianhuo. Ten years ago, Tianhuo was obviously not very old, but she was expelled from the foreign city and regarded as a traitor by the foreigners. She must have experienced countless hardships on the way from the foreign city to the Haoyue Palace.
After talking to Bai Shuo for a while, Tianhuo felt much better. She turned around to look at Fan Yue who was still quiet in the room, so she said goodbye to Bai Shuo and went to the palace to ask Hua Lin for an explanation.
