Chapter 1247: The Story of the War God Country

After a while, she said: "That's the Dao Ancestor, the master actually got to see the Dao Ancestor in person—simply, simply..."

Her tone was full of shock, and she could not calm down for a long time.

The Sovereign of War Rules is the highest-ranking faith in the War God Country! In her mind, Da Yi's status is equivalent to how ordinary civilians in the War God Country view her.

It's even higher!

The goal pursued by past War Gods was merely to take a few more steps on this road; no one dared imagine a day when they would see the Dao Ancestor in person.

The news Xiao Feng brought was too shocking; it stunned Mi, leaving her momentarily unsure what expression to make.

Xiao Feng said: "There truly exists a Sovereign of War Rules in the world, and he is someone from my world. Our worlds are actually interconnected; if the opportunity arises, I'll take you to play there."

Mi didn't really understand what he meant, and she wasn't very interested.

Her eyes slowly regained focus, her mood somewhat complex; looking at Xiao Feng, she asked: "Master, according to what you said, the War Primordial Ancestor truly exists—if I were to pray to the War Primordial Ancestor, would he be able to hear me, right?"

"Uh... I'm not sure about that. It's said the Dao Ancestor is omnipotent, so he should be able to hear it, but whether he'd respond is uncertain. Compared to that, we are too tiny, like a speck of dust in the Xing Kong, utterly invisible." Xiao Feng replied.

The attributes of the World Boss, Lord of the Earth, made him clearly aware of the gap between himself and true powerhouses.

The Dao Ancestor is far stronger than the World Boss; without the Divine Might talent, he would never have a chance to encounter such a powerhouse in his lifetime.

Mi's face suddenly showed a bitter expression, and she sighed: "If only the Primordial Ancestor could hear..."

Xiao Feng noticed some abnormality from her reaction.

Little Mi, though sometimes clueless, knows her own mind very well; even if she knew the War Primordial Ancestor had appeared, she would likely just be shocked and delighted, not show a sad expression.

At this moment her behavior seemed off, so Xiao Feng quickly asked: "Little Mi, what's wrong? What do you want to say to the War Primordial Ancestor?"

"Master..."

Mi looked at him, bit her lower lip, her face showing hesitation.

This expression made Xiao Feng more certain of his guess.

There's still a story behind the little maid!

He asked: "What's going on? Speak up—I'll help if I can. I know a friend who should be able to see the War Primordial Ancestor!"

Mi lowered her head, lost in thought.

After a long while, she said: "Master, I... actually our lineage is not native to the Yuan Su Shen Yu; we are outsiders."

"I know that; get to the point." Xiao Feng had already heard this news, but he didn't know from where the ancestors of the War God Country had migrated to this world.

Mi sighed, organized her thoughts, and slowly began to recount a past event.

"When I was young, I heard Father God say that our lineage originally served as the divine guards who followed the War Primordial Ancestor in battles across the world, blessed by the War Primordial Ancestor, and we once had a glorious past."

"Under the Primordial Ancestor's leadership, our forebears built a mighty nation that shocked myriad races and ruled over many planes, reaching its peak."

"Later the Primordial Ancestor retreated into seclusion, disappearing from people's sight. To protect the prosperity of the Ancient Country, he left behind a Holy Relic that could keep the world at peace, deterring foreign tribes from invading."

"My ancestors were the guardians of that Holy Relic, living generation after generation at the foot of that mountain, preventing the Holy Relic from being coveted by evil people."

"But later the Ancient Country fell into internal strife; a feudal lord allied with foreign invaders, invaded the central great world, committed countless atrocities, corpses littered the fields, and rivers ran red with blood."

"The ancestor intended to summon the Holy Relic to suppress the chaos, but unexpectedly, at the critical moment of retrieving the Holy Relic, he was betrayed by his most trusted friend—another divine general who served the War Primordial Ancestor..."

"That divine general had already defected to the rebellious lord; the Holy Relic was seized, and the ancestor's children and wives were all slaughtered—only two people escaped."

"The two wandered in exile, unintentionally separating. One was hunted, fled everywhere, and with no way out, jumped into a strange space, arriving at the Yuan Su Shen Yu, finally escaping the massacre."

"That ancestor soon passed away; on his deathbed he left behind a bloodline and passed down ancestral teachings, urging us to train diligently, soon gain enough strength to return to the Ancient Country and slay our enemies with our own hands."

"But... this is extremely difficult. Father God told me that to return to that place, we need at least a strength ten thousand times greater than a God King. I can't even hope to reach a God King yet, let alone that realm."

Having said that, Mi stopped.

Xiao Feng understood her meaning.

She felt that relying on herself for revenge was hopeless, and wondered if she could "inform" the War Primordial Ancestor of this, so that the War Primordial Ancestor would annihilate the traitors and fulfill her ancestors' dying wish.

But such a thing...

Xiao Feng shook his head.

He stroked Mi's cheek and said: "The Dao Ancestor is nearly omniscient and omnipotent; even if you don't say anything, the War Primordial Ancestor surely knows. The reason he doesn't intervene is that he doesn't want to interfere with the natural development of all things in the world."

Upon hearing this, Mi showed a sorrowful expression: "Then what about my ancestors' blood feud? Is it just going to end like this..."

In fact she also understood that the Dao Ancestor's absence isn't due to ignorance, but sheer unwillingness to bother.

It's just that hearing Xiao Feng suddenly claim he had personally seen the Dao Ancestor gave her a great shock, prompting this thought.

Xiao Feng rubbed her head and encouraged: "Of course we won't just let it go. Blood debt must be repaid—it's only right. Train hard, and someday I, your master, will take you back to your homeland to avenge your seniors!"

Mi's expression was gloomy; she clearly didn't think this could be easily accomplished.

But Xiao Feng's gaze still had some influence; encouraged by him, Mi's mood improved immediately, and the hint of sorrow that had just surfaced quickly faded.

Recalling her master's growth in less than a year, and his repeated victories over Gods and God Kings, a spark of hope ignited in her heart.

"Mm! I'll double my efforts—I must become strong and, together with my master, kill our way back!" She clenched her fists, restoring her fighting spirit.

"That's right; that's what our female war god should be like." Xiao Feng smiled, pinching her cheeks into a smiling expression.

This affectionate gesture made Mi a little embarrassed; she took his hand off her face and said: "Come to think of it, my ancestors have been in the Yuan Su Shen Yu for tens of thousands of years. After such a long time, I don't even know what my homeland world has become."

Xiao Feng laughed: "Tens of thousands of years is actually not long for a top powerhouse. So, the homeland world you mentioned—exactly which plane is it in, and what is its name?"

Mi's pretty face stiffened, and she weakly said: "Um, I, as a subordinate, don't know either. Those ancient matters, by the time they were passed down to my father god's generation, had already been largely lost. We don't know where our homeland is, what the enemy is called, who that feudal lord is... we have no impression at all, only a rough idea of their status."

Xiao Feng's mouth twitched.

Not even knowing who the enemy is—how can we take revenge?

If we just grab some random unlucky guy with decent strength on the road, falsely accuse him of being a descendant of the original killer, and then slash him to death—would that count as revenge?
