Chapter 486

"We... are not descendants of sinful blood; our ancestors achieved merits that surpassed the world... they have always fought at the very forefront, and continue to do so even now, writing glory with blood and bone!"

We are not sinners... the blood flowing within us is not impure; it is glory, recording past achievements!

We... are not people of sinful blood; our ancestors... are still fighting there even now, sealing off heaven and earth, cutting off their own retreat; they are still engaged in bloody battles, guarding the border wastelands!

That voice was vast, echoing through Shi Hao's mind, stirring his spirit, causing an indescribable feeling to flow within his heart!

"Sin"!

It once represented a kind of glory, once represented a kind of brilliance.

But now, its original meaning is gone!

Everyone believes that sin is simply sin, that they are a clan of sinfulness, not a clan of glory!

Shi Hao found it difficult to calm down for a long time.

He wiped his face, only to discover that tears had blurred his cheeks.

Everything that had just happened was too real, so much so that he had been infected by it!

And the strange phenomenon occurring with Shi Hao was quickly detected by the Kuaibeizhu Sect.

Someone performed divination regarding Shi Hao...

However, upon this divination, the person spat out blood, their mouth filled with bloody froth...

They were terrified, their face filled with disbelief and confusion...

The divination failed!

Most critically, they even suffered a backlash!

Countless people were greatly shocked, staring in astonishment at this Dao Protector...

The Dao Protector murmured, as if unable to hear any sound...

"The distant future is a chaos! Looking back, behind him lies nothingness! He... seems not to belong to this entire ancient history!"

These few short words left countless people across The Myriad Heavens and Worlds completely confused!

Countless people watched the events unfolding in the image with surprise...

Within the Great Dao Golden List, there were nothing but sounds of countless people communicating...

"What does this mean? Not belonging to this entire ancient history? Has Shi Hao jumped out of the Three Realms and exists beyond the Five Elements?"

"Heh, laughable to death; do you know what Shi Hao is destined to do in the future? That is the Emperor of Desolation, the existence who alone decides upon the eternal ages!"

"The Emperor of Desolation who alone decides upon the eternal ages! How could a tiny Dao Protector like you divine him?"

"Not being shaken into powder by the future Emperor of Desolation already counts as him having a hard fate!"

"Having a hard fate, yet he still died..."

"By the way, what the hell does 'the distant future is a chaos' even mean?"

"Behind him, nothingness! Indeed, this is alone deciding upon the eternal ages!"

At this moment, countless people were discussing...

Everyone looked again at the Great Dao Golden List...

What they saw was that Shi Hao had triggered such a strange phenomenon; he also knew he could not stay long, so he hurriedly slipped away!

He was about to reach the peak of the Venerable realm, so he began a baptism of lightning, tempering his body with lightning, successfully entering the peak of the Venerable realm!

His strength had finally caught up!

Shi Hao did not know how long this battle of geniuses would last; unwilling to have regrets years later, he entered Li Fire City and met Fire Spirit!

Within the Fire Mulberry Forest.

A young girl was picking mulberries, tending to fire cicadas!

Shi Hao gazed at one of the mulberry-picking girls; he felt somewhat dazed, staring blankly in a trance...

She carried a bamboo basket on her back, inside which crimson clouds bloomed, piled high with fire mulberry leaves; she wore coarse linen clothes, yet her skin was like snow, naturally beautiful...

Fire Spirit!

At this moment, it seemed as though a thousand thoughts and myriad emotions surged into Shi Hao's heart, yet there was also a blockage; for a moment, he actually did not know how to...

Fire Spirit had a tall figure, clear eyes, and was naturally beautiful.

There was sweat on her face; like an ordinary mulberry-picking girl, she performed these tasks very naturally and skillfully.

Her clothes were very rough and very simple, washed until they had faded to white.

She was tranquil and ethereal, vastly different from her lively demeanor in the past.

The former Princess of a nation was actually picking mulberries here!

And at this time, in the Perfect Plane, the Lower Realm, within the Shi Imperial Capital...

"Fire Spirit..." Shi Hao watched everything happening in the image, watching Fire Spirit skillfully picking mulberries, his entire body trembling!

"How could this be? A dignified Princess of a nation is actually picking mulberries?"

He found it hard to believe.

In the past, how lively and spirited Fire Spirit had been?

But now?

She had actually become a mulberry-picking girl!

In the past, she could wear whatever clothes she wanted, as magnificent as she desired!

As a result, after she Arrived in the Upper World, she wore those coarse linen clothes washed until they had faded to white...

"I..." He opened his mouth, Zhang Zui, and for a moment, he actually felt his heart choked with emotion!

Fire Spirit went to the Upper World.

She went long ago!

He had thought that Huo Ling'er still possessed some inheritance or other in the Upper World.

Even within the State of Sin, within the Fire Kingdom of the State of Sin, her status ought to have been far from low...

Yet, it turned out to be like this!

At this moment, Shi Hao felt a surge of anger...

He wished he could charge into the Upper World, find Huo Ling'er, and completely liberate this State of Sin!

Unconsciously, he clenched his fist!

He still needed to become stronger!

Only by becoming stronger could he change all of this...

At this moment, it was not only Shi Hao whose heart felt blocked; across The Myriad Heavens and Worlds, countless people witnessing this scene felt the same suffocation in their hearts!

That once lively and spirited Huo Ling'er—had she truly fallen to such a plight?

A princess of a kingdom, actually picking mulberry leaves here?

Countless people could not understand; countless people sighed...

Indeed, no matter how brilliant you were in the lower realms, once you arrived in the Upper World, you were but an ant, unseen by others!

And at this time, within the vision...

Shi Hao finally reunited with Huo Ling'er...

Huo Ling'er looked at the person before her, her heart trembling; she did not wish to shed tears, yet they fell uncontrollably!

"You... are still alive..." Huo Ling'er gazed at Shi Hao, the wooden bucket in her hand dropping to the ground.

Her heart was trembling.

"Whoosh..." Just then, the young Night Wolf God pup that Shi Hao had once given to Huo Ling'er instantly appeared, pouncing into Shi Hao's embrace.

Immediately after, the little Wolf God led Shi Hao to see the cenotaph Huo Ling'er had erected for him!

Shi Hao looked at that grave, then at Huo Ling'er's smile, and his heart trembled along with hers!

Without needing to think, one could know that upon hearing news of Shi Hao's death, she must have shed tears time and again...

Such emotions could not be expressed in words.

Only a few words sufficed...

During their brief reunion, Shi Hao revealed everything...

He was Huang; he was the one with the soaring sacred bone on his forehead, the man whose sinful blood caused the clouds to collapse!

Huo Ling'er was utterly shocked!

Immediately after, Shi Hao asked Huo Ling'er why things were this way, and what had happened after she arrived in the Upper World...

The once imperially noble princess of a kingdom now wore coarse hemp clothes and washed garments by the river with her own hands; his heart felt sour and astringent.
