418 Inquiring Secrets

Before it was implemented, it had to be kept absolutely confidential.

Otherwise, if the Zhou Dynasty strengthened its west defenses, it would greatly affect Zhao Gao’s plan, and it might even cause Zhao Gao’s plan to fail.

Seeing Gu Mingzhou’s displeasure, the Island Master of Floating Jade Island knew that he did not want Murong Yan to stay.

Furthermore, the Island Master of Floating Jade Island also had something to discuss with Gu Mingzhou in private. It was not convenient for Murong Yan to be here.

“You go back to the Heavenly Sword Sect first. I will accompany brother Gu to the Heavenly Sword Sect.” Floating Jade Island Master said.

“I’ll go back and report to the Ssect Master. I’ll wait for three days to welcome you two at the Heavenly Sword Sect!” Murong Yan stood up and took his leave.

Gu Mingzhou did not say much.

Floating Jade Island Master sent him out of the tent and watched him leave.

“Do you know the consequences of having dealings with the Zhou Dynasty?” Gu Mingzhou shook his head as he watched the Floating Jade Island Master send Murong Yan off.

“I’m sorry, I didn’t know this guy would come, so I had no choice…” Floating Jade Island Master hurriedly explained.”

He understood that Zhao Gao would be suspicious if he suddenly contacted the Zhou Dynasty.

“Is there anything special about Murong Yan?” Gu Mingzhou asked, puzzled.

“Brother Gu, you might not know.” The Island Master of Floating Jade Island walked to the bed and sat down. He began to explain to Gu Mingzhou about Murong Yan.

A hundred years ago, the young Murong Yan had been to the three great rogue cultivator islands.

At that time, Floating Jade Island Master was searching for the lightning tribulation and trying to resist the heavenly tribulation. In the end, not only did he fail, he was even severely injured by the lightning. He was drifting into the depths of the sea in the freezing cold land and was saved by Murong Yan by chance.

As a result, the Floating Jade Island Master owed Murong Yan a favor, and the two of them became good friends.

He could refuse the other people, but Murong Fu sent Murong Yan, and he couldn’t refuse him, so he could only invite him in.

Originally, the Floating Jade Island Master had wanted to use Gu Mingzhou’s absence as an excuse to avoid Murong Yan.

Gu Mingzhou suddenly appeared.

“Then Murong Yan said I lied to him and had to make a bet with him. Hence, there was the matter of Murong Yan impersonating me.” After Floating Jade Island Master finished recounting his experience with Murong Yan, he smiled bitterly and helplessly.

“So when Island Master was searching for the way to ascend, he could even withstand the tribulation during the rain?” Gu Mingzhou looked at the Floating Jade Island Master and asked with an incredulous smile.

“At that time, I was really at my wit’s end. Besides, I have to try to know if it works or not. The snatching technique was created from experiments.” Floating Jade Island Master laughed awkwardly.

“It’s a pity you still didn’t succeed.” Gu Mingzhou said.

“There’s a possibility.” Floating Jade Island Master replied helplessly.

“You said that when Murong Yan was young, he went to the three great rogue cultivator islands. What did he do there?” Gu Mingzhou no longer discussed this with the island Lord of Floating Jade Island. Instead, he asked about what had just happened.

“What else can he do? He must be checking Xu Fengyu’s seal.” Floating Jade Island Master said.

“Check the seal? Does that mean that the Heavenly Sword Sect knew about Xu Fengyu’s existence?” Gu Mingzhou seemed to have caught on to something and said excitedly.

“When Xu Fengyu was suppressed, the Heavenly Sword Sect was the main force. How could they not know that the Zhou Dynasty’s royal family borrowed the nine prefectures’ cauldrons?” Floating Jade Island Master said.

“The Heavenly Sword Sect is suppressing Xu Fengyu! You can’t joke about this, Are you sure?” after hearing this news, Gu Mingzhou took a long time to calm down.

After a long while, he finally said, “Brother Gu, did you lose your memory after going to Handan City? I’ve been through the world cultivation era.” The Island Master of Floating Jade Island kept sizing Gu Mingzhou up.

Floating Jade Island Master had indeed said he did not participate in the ambush against Xu Fengyu back then.

The Floating Jade Island Master was a witness to the evolution of the world from the world cultivation era to the current human world!

“Island Master, you should know a lot about Xu Fengyu, right?” Gu Mingzhou suppressed the excitement in his heart and stared at the Floating Jade Island Master.

“Brother Gu, you’ve asked the right person. Except for those who have ascended to the upper realm, no one would dare to say they know Xu Fengyu better than I do, including that old man Murong Yunshang!” the Floating Jade Island Master said with a smile.

Murong Yunshang was Murong Fu’s real name!

“In that case, can you tell me about Xu Fengyu, Island Master?” Gu Mingzhou quickly asked.

“Of course, I can.” The Floating Jade Island Master reached out for the teacup in front of him and drank it in one gulp.

It was said that when heaven and earth were first separated and the world was first formed, the heavenly Dao gave birth to races and lives before all living things were born.

At that time, although the world was rich in all kinds of resources, the environment was very harsh and not suitable for the survival of living creatures.

Therefore, the heavenly Dao was merciful and gave this race super talents, allowing them to survive in this new world despite the harsh environment and gradually begin to change the world.

Thus, there was a world environment suitable for the growth of all living things.

And the people of that race were later worshipped as Masters by all living beings and were called the World Gods.

They were the world cultivators.

People were proud, and so were world cultivators.

After being worshipped by all living beings for a long time, the world cultivators were born with a high and mighty perception, looking down on all living beings and looking down on them.

In the eyes of world cultivators, other than their own kind, all other living beings were lowly lives, just like ants.

The new generation of world cultivators even claimed to be their masters and started to enslave all living things. They were arrogant and despotic and did all kinds of evil.

He was a hundred times more arrogant than the current children of officials.

This caused the originally peaceful world to be filled with complaints and wails.

The ten thousand races sent a letter to denounce the world cultivators’ evil deeds.

The denouncement by all the races in the world this time had completely infuriated the world cultivators.

The slaughter began, and a hundred tribes were exterminated one after another!

Tens of thousands of living beings were killed!

The world fell into chaos, and the aura of death filled the air.

In order to protect themselves, all the races formed an alliance in an attempt to fight against the world cultivators.

Unfortunately, not only were world cultivators gifted but they were also born with a terrifying suppression of all living beings. They could directly trigger the blood essence of weaker living beings and make them self-destruct, turning it into their own nourishment.

The result was predictable. The resistance of all living beings ended in failure. In the end, they were completely enslaved by the world cultivators and became slaves.

From then on, the era of world cultivators began to flourish.

However, due to their own problems, the number of world cultivators was always in the thousands and could not increase.

However, other creatures were completely different. Even if their death rate was extremely high, their numbers would still increase greatly.

Especially the human race. In less than a thousand years, they had become the largest race in the world.

Due to the lack of world cultivator clans, many human cultivators were able to cultivate. The number of cultivators who silently transcended tribulations and ascended gradually increased.

Due to the long period of slavery, not only had the respect and worship of all living beings toward the world cultivators turned into hatred, but many races had also secretly thought of ways to eradicate them.

This included the human cultivators who had ascended to the upper realm.

It was said that after the human cultivators ascended to the upper realm, they still hated the world cultivators. Therefore, they formed an alliance in the upper realm and spent a hundred years breaking down the barrier between the two realms.
