Chapter 1508: Bygones

Ji Hao stood up and walked to Mr. Crow, silently looking at Priest Mu.

Priest Mu looked at Ji Hao with his bitter face. A cyan-light sparked in his eyes.

He was a powerful cultivator, and no one could know what was he thinking, or what he would do in the following moment. Therefore, Ji Hao had already prepared for the worst. The Pan Gu bell and the Pan Gu sword were ready. Meanwhile, he contacted the small world of sun, which was not yet far away. Once Priest Mu make any undesirable move, Ji Hao would activate the power of the Pan Gu sun to give him a heavy strike.

Suddenly, a pure and warm power spread from the Fuso staff, calming Ji Hao's strong will of fighting and easing his faint anxiety.

A thin beam of red light shone from the beaks of the Gold Crow on the head of the staff. Within the light was a hazy, three-feet-tall Fuso tree. It was a tree, but everyone on the scene clearly sensed that the tree seriously took a 'glance' at Priest Mu.

Afterward, a deep, slow, and old voice could be heard from the hearts of everyone present. Fuso tree seemed to be not good at speaking. Instead, it directly communicated with the others with its soul power.

”Priest Mu, back then, what did you say? What, did I say?” said Fuso tree.

”Hehe,” The tree snorted with an obvious scorn and continued, ”The third master in your sect? Eh?”

Priest Mu's never-changing bitter face twitched slightly, and even his immeasurably thick skin blushed a little bit. Embarrassedly, he opened his mouth. As a fierce light flashed across his eyes, he shouted, ”Fuso, my friend, it's good for you to remember…I made the offer with honesty and sincerity. In the end, I even offered you the position of the great master. I was willing to be beneath you, but you actually turned me down.”

Wielding the wooden staff holding in his hand, Priest Mu's voice sounded sharper and sharper, more and more aggressive, ”Fuso, my friend, what did you say back then? That you were tired of wars, and wanted nothing more than living an isolated life in the world of sun, without taking part in any mortal affairs. But today, you let yourself fall to be the spirit thing of a feathered animal!”

”Caw!” Mr. Crow cawed in rage as he attempted to curse Priest Mu. In front of a billion crows, Priest Mu called him 'a feathered animal', which was truly hurting. But, Ji Hao covered Mr. Crow's mouth with his hand as he looked at Priest Mu, then smiled faintly and coldly, ”Eh? Did such thing really happen? Was Priest Mu really willing to let you be the Great Master? Hehe… hehe… hehehehe!”

Hearing Ji Hao's series of cold 'hehe', Priest Mu seemed to become more and more embarrassed, even showing a savage look in his eyes.

Fuso tree released a faint red light screen. In the screen, the golden fire burned to the sky. In was nowhere else but the small world of sun. Within the boundless golden fire, a towering linden tree was slightly shaking behind Priest Mu. Streams of green mist poured down from the tree and shielded Priest Mu, allowing him to move strenuously through the golden fire.

”That day, not long after East Emperor Taiyi fell, the Gold Crow Family suffered a heavy loss, upon which, they were ambushed by a strong force from Ten Sun County from the Eastern Wasteland. Gold Crows were slaughtered, and a big half of all human clans that inherited their powers were wiped out. The survivors fled to Southern Wasteland.” Fuso Tree's voice echoed across everyone's heart.

Mr. Crow and the other Gold Crow elders cawed in chorus. The Gold Crow family was destroyed, and human beings who had their powers were slaughtered. The ones who luckily survived hid in the void and escaped to Southern Wasteland, living under the protection of the Fire God, Zhu Rong.

Zhu Rong and Gold Crows were friends. After all, they were all the ancestors of fire players. Personally, Zhu Rong protected all surviving possessors of the Gold Crow bloodline. These were the experiences of Ji Hao's ancestors from the Gold Black Mountain, and the origin of the Fire Crow Clan in Southern Wasteland.

”After East Emperor Taiji fell, Priest Mu, my friend, you came to the sun world.” Fuso tree continued slowly, ”At first, you promised me the position of the third master in your sect. You also promised to help me passing the natural trial and attain a human shape at all costs…I rejected.”
