Chapter 1389: A Written Complaint
Translator: LawEditor: Hitesh_
To a great extent, human beings valued and respected their ancestors. Even the smallest human clan located in a cave in the wilderness would build a small altar to enshrine and worship the souls of their ancestors. That was a faith, a belief, which had been giving people the strong will of fighting against the pressure from the non-humankind.
Therefore, these ‘guides’ collapsed sooner than he expected.
When tens of thousands of souls showed up before their faces, even the ones who refused to give a word when burning in fire started crying and struggling. Then, they suffered a mental breakdown.
In no time, Ji Hao attained the confessions that he wanted.
‘The Gong Sun Family and the other few large human families colluded with the non-humankind and attempted to occupy Yao Mountain territory, to seize the opportunity to launch a surprise attack on Pu Ban City and overturn the alliance of human clans, as the entire humankind was weakened by the flood.’
The oral confession made by these ‘guides’ was recorded in thousands of heavy jade boards, including images, voices, soul marks. These men of sacrifice from those large families told Ji Hao their names, family backgrounds, the names of their superiors, and everything else about themselves. They confessed the details of the fact that they colluded with non-humankind beings to attack Yao Mountain City; they even said out some things they did in the past.
Hearing their confession, Ji Hao couldn’t help but sneer.
Those large, powerful families and these men of sacrifice that they raised, these people did nothing good in the past either. As men of sacrifice, who were secretly raised by their families, and the things they had done were all unpresentable, including hurting each other, assassinating important members of other large families, even wiping out quite a number of small clans. They wiped out those small clans themselves for no other reason than a few core descendants of their families having their eyes on a couple of girls from those small clans.
They mentioned all kinds of dirty, nasty things that they had done. The confession of these, thousands of ‘guides’ made Ji Hao speechless. In the end, Ji Hao could only gaze at the sky, without being able to say a word.
In fact, Ji Hao wouldn’t be wronging them by accusing them of colluding with the non-humankind, because many of these large families had indeed done such things! For things that weren’t convenient to be done by them, they hired non-humankind beings to do for them. Many times, they even traded all kinds of secrets of the alliance of human clans for resources from the non-humankind.
Guided by Ji Hao, the leaders of those slave-hunting troops had made over a thousand solid written evidence with details regarding how exactly they colluded with those large families, where this strong force mass came from, who provided with the supplies, who guided them to this area, and how they sneaked into Yao Mountain territory. The information they provided was tightly connected and flawlessly matched.
Also, Dishi Tu swore as a commander of the Blood Moon army that he was the link between the Blood Moon army and those large human families. In his confession, the non-humankind had been preparing to launch an all-out attack to the humankind, and these large families decided to seize the opportunity to rise up; he made these vague things sound quite real.
The fire burning on the few ‘guides’ was put on. Healers applied ointments on their bodies, while the souls of their ancestors were locked in the heavily guarded core of a branch formation of the heaven and earth great formation. Afterward, Ji Hao took everyone’s confession and drove the nine dragons chariot to Pu Ban City, all by himself.
Fiery clouds rolled, while the chariot glowed blindingly.
It was late at night. Wherever the chariot flashed across, the world would be illuminated by a red light. One could see the golden-red light from the chariot from over a thousand miles away.
Thousands of miles away from the Town Hall, tens of people suddenly rose into the sky and blocked Ji Hao’s way in a straight line.
”Marquis Yao Ji Hao, under Gong Sun Leader’s order, you can’t…” said a strong voice.
