Chapter 232

Gu Qianlin rarely said anything so serious. When she spoke, she looked at An Zhe with a complicated expression, giving An Zhe a feeling that he would never let down her words.

Perhaps mentioning the fact that the Ancient Hunting Clan had not returned for a long time, Gu Qianye’s tone was rather faint, but everyone could feel his longing.

She looked down at the glass of water in her hand and let the steam rise from it into her face.

“”The reason why the Ancient Hunters never left the mountain is also because of that ancient legend.””

Her voice was very soft, but her voice was very pleasant and clear. She was an extremely beautiful narrator. Even though she did not speak of her own personal experience, it was still sufficient to attract others.

If the people in the teahouse telling stories from other places were as beautiful as she was, and their voices were so pleasant to the ears, the teahouse would probably be full of people day and night.

“”At my age, I shouldn’t have gotten to the secret so early.

Perhaps it was because my father only had one child, and he was worried about his own body, so after I began to understand things, he began to explain it to me over and over again.

Maybe he thinks I’m too young to remember.

He was afraid that I would remember the whole thing when I passed it on to the next heir. “”

“”My father was injured in the war with the people of Yan, and then he had me.

His body had never recovered, and he had always been immersed in remorse and remorse.

If he didn’t want to take the hunters out of the mountains, the clansmen wouldn’t have suffered such a heavy blow.

“”He always tells me about it again and again … Child, remember one thing. As the clan leader, you definitely can’t be too greedy, otherwise, you’ll make a big mistake.””

She changed her mind and smiled apologetically at An He. “”I’m really sorry. I was going to tell you about the secret of the ancient saint.””

She placed the cup on the table, thought for a moment, and then said, “”Legend has it that in the time of the gods there were three origins of the original civilization.””

The first was the place where the Da Xi was located. It was called the civilization of the Central Plains.

Second, the Buddhist State of the Western Regions, according to the records, it was called the Ancient Na Civilization.

The other one was north of Swallow Mountain. It was the predecessor of the nomadic people of the grassland. It was called the Peak Civilization.

“”According to the records, at that time, the three civilizations were all ruled by fiendish demons.””

“”After that, I thought that the so-called fiendish demons probably weren’t real fiendish demons, but rather people who had turned into fiendish demons.

In other words, at that time, those with malicious thoughts but powerful strength ruled these places.

During that time, cultivation was strictly forbidden. Only the people under the ruler were allowed to practice cultivation.

In order to consolidate their dominance, they even continuously searched among the commoners for children with the potential to cultivate. They even found one and killed one. “”

“”Their armies will even go deep into the mountains, and not even the smaller clans will let them go.

Until one day, there was a leader who could not bear the guilt and torment. He secretly let go of the seven children who had the potential to cultivate.

The oldest of the seven children was nine years old, while the youngest was no more than five or six years old.

Although they were let go and left to fend for themselves in the mountains.

“”But they are too small after all. In such a dangerous and primal forest, their chances of survival are almost zero.””

“”At this time, the oldest of them stood up and became their leader.

He took care of his brothers and sisters, found food for them, woven clothes out of bark and grass, and built shanty huts to shelter them from the wind and rain.

Just like that, they had lived in the forest for several years and miraculously survived.

Then one day they were fishing in a big lake in the mountains and there was a flash flood. “”

“”The flood almost flooded the tall mountains. They thought they were going to die.

But as they bounced from the waves, an enormous, indescribable holy fish appeared to save them.

The holy fish gave each of them a powerful cultivation technique, as well as the largest child, the holy fish scales.

From that day onwards, the seven of them began to train arduously in the forest. They spent a good thirty years before finally reaching great success in cultivation.

“”The other children all felt that this was good. Now that they have the power to protect themselves, they no longer need to fear the beasts’ attacks.

However, the eldest child felt that self-preservation was not enough. He still needed more children to survive, kill the demons, and rescue everyone.

The six children all considered him to be their father and brother, so their decision was not opposed to his at all. “”

“”When we first entered the mountain, we were all not even ten years old. By the time we left, we were already middle-aged.””

“”They started to challenge the demons. Although they experienced all sorts of hardships and dangers, in the end, they still succeeded.””

She looked towards An Zhe, “”This is the story of the legendary Seven Ancient Saints of the Ancient Hunters.””

Qu Liuxi, who was sitting quietly at the side, asked curiously, “”Why did this story end up with the legacy of the Ancient Hunters?””

“”Where are the others?””

Gu Qianye explained, “”That’s because after defeating the fiendish demon, the relationship between the seven of them had also changed.

Some people think that they have saved all life and deserve to be worshipped by all life.

However, their leader believed that this way, they were no different from the demons that they had gone through countless hardships to kill.

Those who rule the people simply change from devils to them. “”

“”There was a disagreement between them, and the feelings of many years became fragile and ended in discord.

The chief insisted on the free development of men, unconstrained.

Three of them could not stand his stubbornness and left in a huff.

The three of them went north, where the mountaintop civilization was.

They chose one of them to become a king and rule the entire prairie. “”

“”The original agreement was that the three of them would take turns to be the King.

However, the person who was the first to become king didn’t intend to give up his position because he enjoyed the satisfaction of being king.

As time went on, this selfishness became more and more serious.

In the end, he designed and killed the two men.

“”This matter spread to the leader, who then left his place of cultivation, planning to go to the grassland.””

“”Before he makes his move, he instructed the remaining three ancient saints to properly protect everyone.

Because the beasts were rampant and there were very few human cultivators, too many people had died.

The three men were going with him, but he refused.

The three stayed, and the leader went out to the steppes alone. “”

“”Later on, one of the three remaining ancient saints discovered that the leader was actually not wearing the scale armor of the holy fish.””

Perhaps he was only curious at first, so he took the scales away.

Another ancient saint discovered that he suspected that there was something else going on. The more the two fought, the more vicious they became. They were actually willing to take action because of the scales on the holy fish.

By the time the third ancient saint arrived, the two of them were already at the verge of death.

Because the scales of the holy fish were far away from its leader, their power was weakened, and they were also broken into pieces. They were scattered all over the place, and their whereabouts were still unknown.

“”By the time the leader returned from the prairie, the two fighting saints were already dead.

The remaining ancient saint is the ancestor of the Ancient Hunting Clan.

He knelt down and admitted his mistake, saying that he did not protect his loved ones, nor did he protect the scales of the holy fish.

And the leader said... Sacred Fish Scale Armor is an external object, and its power is powerful enough to arouse greed in others, so after killing the Demon, he never went through it again.

Who would have thought that this would lead to trouble in the end?

“”Since the scales of the Sacred Fish have been broken, it is a bad thing that we have yet to see.””

“”But the ancestors of the Ancient Hunters felt that it was a sacred object and should be reassembled.

But the leader said that he no longer felt the need.

He was going to leave, to a place where no one could find him.

“”It’s just like when someone threw him into the forest, living on his own.””

Gu Qianye sighed, “”The ancestor of the Ancient Hunting Clan asked, what exactly happened?””

“”The leader said that he killed that ancient saint on the prairie.

Although he thought that that person should be killed, after he killed them, all the brothers who had died appeared in his heart. This was his inner demon.

With a demon in his heart, he was worried that he would end up becoming a disaster.

As a Saint with a cultivation base like his, once he was controlled by the heart demon, it would bring about an irreparable disaster.

“”So he decided to leave and find a way to remove the internal demon.””

Gu Qianye said, “”I guess the so-called internal demon is actually the guilt of the leader personally killing his own brother, right?””

Or was it because they had reneged on the oath they had made in the depths of the forest?

When I was young, when I heard my father talk about these things, I couldn’t help but think that perhaps the leader, who is also a saint chosen by the heavens, would not have ended up like this if he had not left the forest back then.

Qu Liuxi shook her head, “”They will leave the forest eventually. Even if they don’t have the destiny of a Heaven’s Chosen Saint, perhaps they will still leave the forest in search of another breakthrough due to their great power.””

It is said that it is difficult to change one’s nature easily.

But in truth, there was simply too much that could change people.

A person who is originally honest and honest will also change because of the influence of the environment. “”

Gu Qianye nodded, “”Perhaps, after the Sacred Heavenly Sage left.””

The ancestors of the Ancient Hunting Clan were disheartened, so they returned to the forest they lived in, which was also the location of the Cang Man Mountain.

Gradually, some of the people who went to the Cang Man Mountain to search for the sacred path also stayed there.

The ancestor of the Ancient Hunting Clan married a girl and slowly formed the Ancient Hunting Clan.

With the passage of time, although the legends about the ancient sage were still there, the descendants of the ancient hunters were not very familiar with the past.

“”Only the clan leader has inherited that secret.””

Qu Liuxi continued, “”Therefore, because of your ancestors’ regret, your clansmen are still searching for the whereabouts of the Holy Fish Scale.””

Gu Qianye nodded, “”The one left behind by the ancestor of the Ancient Hunters was the scale armor of the holy fish that flew to An Zeng’s side.””

“”It’s said to be the most important piece close to the heart. It can guide the fated to find the remaining scales of the holy fish.””

She looked at An Zui. “”When the story is over, do you think you should be so arrogant?””

An Zhan shook his head. “”I don’t think so. I don’t have the heart of a Savior, so I’m definitely not some saint chosen by heaven.””

Old Huo, who had been silent all this time, frowned deeply. After a very long time, he suddenly said in a strange tone, “”Perhaps, the so-called demon race might have something to do with the Seven Ancient Saints.””

An Zhan was slightly stunned, “”Lord Huo … Are you saying that the demon race that is most likely the chosen saint’s successor?””

“”That is to say, it is very possible that the Heavenly Sage ultimately did not control his internal demon and was instead controlled by it … That’s why there are so many evil techniques, which led to the appearance of the so-called Demon race.””

Old Huo shook his head, “”Not necessarily. I was just speaking casually.

“”If that chosen saint is really controlled by the heart demon, then perhaps humanity will suffer a calamity.””

Qu Liuxi looked towards An Zhan. “”I hope, for your entire life and for all eternity, you will have no heart demon.””

“”I have. Each and every one of you is my inner demon.”””
