Chapter 856: A Southern Wastnd Man


    Trantor: Law Editor: Hitesh


    The invisible me burned, and Chi You’s head squirmed, changing its shape along with the me, the lights, and the shadows.


    Ji Hao activated the immemorial sun streamer and released the essence sun fire, creating a sharp fire sword that crazily hacked Chi You for quite a while. But, he failed to even break the skin of Chi You’s face. Ji Hao then pulled out the nine suns spear, lunged, pierced and hacked with all his strength. Once, he boosted his power up andunched thebined move of Sky Opening, Earth Splitting, Everything Grow, and Everything perish; that was the strongest move he couldunch at the current stage.


    The nine suns spear, as a pre-world treasure, corresponded with thebined move, but still, even the skin on Chi You’s face wasn’t broken. On the contrary, the nine suns spear nged against Chi You’s forehead and left an arc-shaped golden light beam in the air. Right next, a terrifying counterforce struck back to Ji Hao like a tsunami, shattered Ji Hao’s arms entirely and sted his arms into two spheres of blood mist.


    Divine Magi could regrow their bodies from a single drop of blood. Ji Hao endured the pain while the blood mist quickly gathered back. Within the blink of an eye, the blood mist turned back into a pair of perfectly unharmed arms.


    Packing the nine suns spear, Ji Hao looked at Chi You silently. Zhu Rong said that this guy was an eternal being, and this guy also said that he was an eternal being. Although Ji Hao wasn’t sure if eternal life truly existed in this world, Chi You’s body was indeed incredibly strong.


    With a strikeunched by Ji Hao with all of his power, even the heads of Xiang Liu, who was a powerful prehistorical creature, could be cut off. But Ji Hao couldn’t even break the skin of Chi You. Exactly how powerful was Chi You?


    It was easy to imagine that back then, when Chi You led his army to sweep across the human world, how much effort did Emperor Xuan yuan make, how much price did he pay to capture Chi You alive, tear him apart and seal him, and how powerful Emperor Xuan yuan was himself.


    "You..." Ji Hao looked at Chi You and gasped quickly.


    Chi You looked back at Ji Hao with his watery pair of eyes and said gently, "In fact, I am not a cruel and violent person. The brains of Zhu Rong Family people are all burned by fire. Little guy, you should think about what I said."


    "Zhu Rong brought you here as a preventive action. This means that in the future, you may have the chance to be with me alone. If you can break this seal for me and free me, I will make you immortal like my brothers, once I have regained my power."


    "Trust me... At least, I will never lie to a little kid."


    Chi You’s eyes were bright, his gaze determined and his tone gentle. When he was talking, his tone and facial expression made him more like a courteous, nice man living next door than a legendary, ancient evil being.


    A rather infectious man, only with OCD.


    Ji Hao shook his head, took a few steps backward, and said in a deep voice, "No matter what you offer me, I won’t betray my people for those things and bring them disasters."


    Zhu Rong stood aside silently, listening to the conversation between Chi You and Ji Hao.


    Chi You chuckled, threw a sideway nce at Zhu Rong and said with that gentle tone, "You’re wrong. Do you think I will ughter human beings for no reason? I have indeed killed countless human beings, but as for those who those followed my lead, I never harmed them."


    Sighing slightly, Chi You raised his eyelids and continued with an emotional look, "Actually, I am from Southern Wastnd too. I was a nsman of Jiu Li n. Zhu Rong, you cannot deny my family background...When I became the leader of Jiu Li n, your Zhu Rong Family was not yet the domineer of Southern Wastnd."


    Zhu Rong finally began talking, "Jiu Li n doesn’t exist in the world anymore. Chi You, me yourself for that."


    "me me?" Chi You showed the whites of his eyes, slowly sighed and said, "What did I do wrong? What I did back in the ancient time, which powerful n wouldn’t do the same?"


    "You said that human beings should stick together,bine the powers to fend against the enemies. But my Jiu Li n people were free and happy. We weren’t willing to follow orders, and that was our nature."


    "So the war was started, without any evil or justice. Me and my people were defeated, indeed. We weren’t as smart as you, we couldn’t y those tricks that you did. Therefore, we were defeated. I admit, no big deal."


    Ji Hao popped out his eyes. Had Chi You fought against Emperor Xuanyuan already before he followed themand of the non-humankind? Even those secret records kept in the Magi Pce didn’t include this.


    "As for what happened afterward, can you me me for that?" Chi You curved his mouth corners down, helplessly looked at Zhu Rong and continued, "Base on your conscience, can you truly me me for what happened afterward? My brothers and I were defeated, and we were captured alive by the non-humankind. Although we gained great benefits from them, we were also controlled by them. Seriously, you can’t me me for what happened after that."


    Chi You swayed his head again, took a circle in the air, seeming even to be quite joyful, then he fixed his eyes on Ji Hao again.


    "Little guy, you saw my seventy-two brothers outside, you saw them. If I was like them, knowing nothing but killing, with my powers, I don’t think Emperor Xuan yuan could do anything to me."


    "I was just...In fact, for a while, I was just like them,pletely under the control of the non-humankind, like a tool. When I was like a machine, I made Emperor Xuan yuan and the alliance of human ns suffer a few overwhelming defeats in a row...But I was lucky, I conquered the thing inside me, and then became an immortal being. But meanwhile, I was conscious again."


    Chi You raised his eyelids, heavily sighed and continued, "I didn’t think that when I fought like a machine, I almost destroyed Emperor Xuan yuan and his army. But when I was conscious again, I fought in my own style and was defeated, utterly. Am I truly not smart enough? So not perfect... I was gifted with an invincible power, but why didn’t I have a brain that could allow me to rival Emperor Xuan yuan?"


    ‘If you were as smart as Emperor Xuan yuan, all human beings would have be ves of the non-humankind, wouldn’t they?’ thought Ji Hao.


    "You said that you were a nsman of Jiu Li n, right? But how did you be immortal?" Ji Hao was curious. Immortal, what kind of stage was that?


    "Ah, those non-human beings were silly." Chi You grinned and responded, still in that gentle tone. "Before they came to Pan Gu world, they swept across arge world, that was almost copsed, and gained a broken stone heart."


    "They had run countless experiments with their own people, but no matter Yu n people, Jia n people or Xiu n people, even their ves and dark-kind warriors, all those people exploded and died after absorbing a slight little bit of the power of that stone heart. Therefore, they saw that stone heart as an evil thing, and dared not to try it with their own people again."


    "I was defeated, and I fled. But I was captured alive by a troop of non-humankind warriors. They tested that stone heart with me, and unexpectedly, my body perfectly merged with the stone heart, the entire stone heart, and I was gifted with immortal life and a deathless body."


    Murmuring for quite a while, Chi You looked at Ji Hao once again and said, "I am a Jiu Li n man. If I am freed, people who follow my lead will be my nsmen. How can I ughter them for no reason?"
