Chapter 1326 - 1326 Battle Between Father and Son
1326 Battle Between Father and Son
Even though he knew that Xiao Shu had a wife and didn’t have any romantic feelings for Yu Huang, Sheng Xiao still minded this action. Sheng Xiao grabbed Xiao Shu’s hand and pinched his wrist to separate his hand from Yu Huang’s. Then, he took a step forward and shielded Yu Huang behind him.
Xiao Shu pursed his lips and quickly wiped his hands on his clothes. Then, he rolled his eyes and asked Sheng Xiao, “I’ve already wiped away the warmth your wife left on my palm. Do you still have any objections?”
Sheng Xiao was satisfied now.
Yu Huang was somewhat speechless.
“The unicorn clansmen have always lived in the desolate place near the Cang Lang Continent. We need the help of the seniors of the unicorn clan to go to the inner academy.” After Sheng Xiao told Xiao Shu the whereabouts of the unicorn clan, he said to him, “After everything is settled here, follow us to the Cang Lang Continent to see the old patriarch of the unicorn clan. It’s all thanks to that old patriarch’s help that we were able to sneak into the demon beast continent.”
“After the old patriarch found out about your existence, he was also very excited.”
Xiao Shu was puzzled after hearing Sheng Xiao’s explanation and he asked in confusion, “It’s normal for the unicorn clansmen to be excited, but why are they so excited after knowing about my existence?”
“It seems like you don’t know yet.” Yu Huang told Xiao Shu, “There’s a rumor in the unicorn clan.”
“Oh really? What rumor?” Xiao Shu really didn’t know.
Ye Qingyang explained for Yu Huang, “Up until now, no unicorn has been able to successfully obtain a human form. Therefore, although the unicorn clan is an ancient demon beast clan, they are not considered a Divine Beast Clan. The unicorn clan has been waiting for the appearance of the Fire Unicorn. Legend has it that once the Fire Unicorn is born, it will help the unicorn clan awaken its divine sense and become a Divine Beast Clan. They will obtain human bodies and have the chance to cultivate and become a Divine Master like the other Divine Beast Clansmen.”
“Can you understand how important your existence is to the unicorn clan now?”
Upon hearing this, Xiao Shu couldn’t help but feel shocked. “There’s such a thing? In that case, I’m the only unicorn with a human form in the world?”
“Yeah.”
Yu Huang suddenly asked Xiao Shu, “I forgot to ask you, during the period you were the Lord of All Demons, did you have a unicorn body or a human body?”
Xiao Shu said, “A unicorn body.”
Sheng Xiao frowned and said in surprise, “So, when Goldfeather Nana was dating you, you were actually a demon beast.”
“What? You discriminate against demon beasts? Don’t forget that your mother was also a python.”
Sheng Xiao rubbed his nose and shut up.
Zhan Wuya also found their conversation strange. “How did you obtain a human body?”
Xiao Shu was also puzzled. He shook his head and said, “I don’t know either. Ten thousand years ago, I self-destructed my Monster Core and my cultivation dissipated. After my soul disappeared from the world, I should have completely dissipated. However, ten thousand years later, I was born into the stomach of a human couple and returned to the Holy Spirit Continent as a baby. Even now, I don’t understand why I was revived and why I have a human body.”
“This is indeed very strange.” Zhan Wuya and Ye Qingyang had never heard of Xiao Shu’s situation before.
Yu Huang thought of something and suddenly said, “It’s the power of blessing.”
Xiao Shu was stunned. “What?”
Yu Huang said, “Ten thousand years ago, when you were still alive, the demon beasts respected you as the Lord of All Demons because they were afraid of your strength. At that time, whoever had a powerful cultivation level was the Lord of All Demons. However, in that battle, you took the initiative to dig out the Monster Core and offer it to Goldfeather Nana in exchange for their chance of survival. This completely moved the demon beasts. Your self-sacrifice made them respect you as the Lord of All Demons from the bottom of their hearts.”
“After you died, generations of demon beasts praised your greatness and prayed that you could return to the human world. Therefore, you came back and returned to the human world with a human body.” The more she analyzed, the more Yu Huang felt that her guess was right and she said, “Xiao Shu, if any clan wants to become divine demons, they need followers. Only the power of faith and the power of blessing of followers can create the birth of a Divine Master.”
“The unicorn clan was able to successfully possess a human body because of the power of blessing. It was your kindness that helped the unicorn clan obtain this gift.”
Yu Huang lamented, “The Creator is indeed benevolent.” The Creator Yu Huang mentioned was the true Creator, the Dao of the Universe, not the Bewitching Butterfly.
After hearing Yu Huang’s analysis, Xiao Shu lamented, “If that’s the case, we should really thank those fools in the abyss.”
At this moment, a black wind blew. Dark clouds suddenly appeared in the sky.
The five of them looked up at the deep sky at the same time and saw a long-haired man in a white suit walking over from the black fog. A red python was wrapped around his waist, and its huge head was floating above the man’s head. Its two fiery red eyes were staring coldly at the white nine-tailed fox on the high wall.
The man’s slender left hand was gently placed on the red python while his right hand held a white ink fan. On the fan, there hung nine white furry fox tail pendants.
The pendant seemed to be struggling and drops of blood were dripping down the pendant.
After Mo Xiao walked to the nine-tailed fox statue on the city wall, he stared into the fox statue’s eyes and muttered softly, “Are these eyes worthy of looking down on the world?” He suddenly raised the fan in his hand and sent it towards the fox statue.
Boom!
The nine-tailed fox statue that had stood on the city wall of the Fox Immortal City for thousands of years was instantly smashed into countless shattered rocks that fell into the city wall.
“The statue has fallen!”
When the citizens in the city saw the statue shatter, their eyes widened. “That bastard actually destroyed the nine-tailed statue of the Fox Immortal City!” That nine-tailed statue represented the overlord status of the nine-tailed fox clan on the demon beast continent, but that bastard actually dared to shatter the statue. Where did he get his guts from?
On the Fox Immortal Mountain, the old Patriarch Hu Aoshan and the current Patriarch Hu Yusheng were standing side by side in the square in front of the Fox Immortal Palace.
Upon seeing the Fox Immortal God statue collapse with his own eyes, Hu Aoshan suddenly clenched the thousand-headed walking stick in his hand. “You’re indeed a fiend!”
As Hu Yusheng stared at the human and python above the city wall, his pupils trembled slightly.
Was that person his half-brother?
His legendary elder brother who transformed into a baby at birth and didn’t die even after being thrown into the time and space rift by his biological mother?
Mo Xiao looked at the Fox Immortal Mountain Range formed by nine tall mountains behind the Fox Immortal City. Then, his gaze finally landed on the palace in the middle mountain range. He stared at the father and son in front of the palace with a smile as he held the white fan in his hand and bowed to the two of them politely.
After Mo Xiao raised his head, he said with a smile, “Mo Ying’s son, Mo Xiao, has come to the Fox Immortal City to ask for the body of my late mother. Please return my late mother’s body to me intact. I want her to rest in peace in the netherworld!”
Hu Aoshan stared fixedly at Mo Xiao’s face. Seeing that he was even more handsome than Hu Yusheng, his expression darkened. “Unfilial son, you’re such a jinx. You should have been strangled to death when you were born. Mo Ying was too selfish. In order to save a jinx like you, she disregarded the future of the nine-tailed fox clan! This is treason!”
“Because Mo Ying betrayed the clan, she has long been burned to death by all the clansmen of the Fox Clan!”
“A traitor of the clan is unworthy of having an intact corpse!”
When he heard this, the smile on Mo Xiao’s face instantly became sinister. “In that case, you can’t hand over my dead mother’s body?” There was no warmth in his voice at all.
Hu Aoshan scolded, “If you want to find that woman’s body, go to the netherworld to find it!” Hu Aoshan stomped the thousand-headed walking stick in his hand forcefully as he said coldly, “1,100 years ago, I failed to kill you. Today, I will eliminate you for the nine-tailed fox clan’s sake!”
“Only if you die can the nine-tailed fox clan survive!”
With that, Hu Aoshan raised the thousand-headed walking stick in his hand. At the same time, nine white tails suddenly appeared behind him. As the tails swayed, Hu Aoshan’s demonic power increased greatly. Waves of white demonic power emerged from the thousand-headed walking stick and turned into the illusion of a thousand nine-tailed fox phantoms in the sky.
Seeing this, Ye Qingyang suddenly clicked his tongue. “A thousand phantoms…” He suddenly felt hungry.
