Chapter 1913 The Choice of the Demigods
"We can get rid of all the obstacles in the God Realm, including some God's Palaces that want to harm you." The high priest said with deep eyes and a meaningful tone. Every wrinkle on his weathered face seemed to hide endless secrets.
The words have been spoken so clearly that Liu Jun would undoubtedly be a fool if he could not understand. These words clearly told him that the God Palace wanted to deal with him, and the demigods were capable and willing to help him. This was the full sincerity shown by the demigods.
"Okay, I promise you." Liu Jun suddenly smiled and said without hesitation. His voice was firm and strong, as if he had made a major decision with far-reaching consequences.
The high priest then gently took out a slightly yellowed scroll. The texture on the scroll was clearly visible. It clearly stated that from now on, the demigods will wholeheartedly obey Liu, the future orderer. Liu Jun will give all the orders of Jun, and after becoming an orderer, Liu Jun will give the demigods the same favorable treatment as ordinary residents of the God Realm.
"Just put a drop of blood on it and it will be fine." The high priest said respectfully from the side, his eyes full of expectation and awe.
Liu Jun's brows furrowed. He looked at the content on the scroll in his hand and sighed deeply.
He still has a certain understanding of the demigods. He has read the introduction to the history of the demigods. It was a history full of suffering and discrimination.
In the past, the demigods were no different from the human race. They were both part of this world, but they were treated as aliens and suffered unreasonable suppression and persecution.
Just because the demigods have more powerful power and a larger number of people, they were not hunted to almost extinction like the human race, but were driven to a bitter cold and desolate land. Their movements were strictly restricted, they were prohibited from conducting transactions with the major realms of the God Realm, and they were completely isolated in this corner of the world.
He also understands the high priest's painstaking efforts. He hopes that in this way, the demigods can continue to survive.
Because the living environment of the demigods is getting worse and worse, and if this situation continues, they can only choose two paths: either launch an attack on the areas of other god kings to gain space for survival; Waiting for death to come.
However, the probability of success on the first path is almost zero. Because when the God Lord existed, he had given orders to the major god kings. Once the demigods left their place of residence on a large scale, all the god kings must unite and exterminate the demigods. This is an unchangeable order and an inescapable fate.
Liu Jun carefully dropped a drop of bright red blood on the yellowed scroll. Immediately afterwards, something unexpected happened. The scroll instantly burst into flames. However, it did not turn into ashes like ordinary paper. Instead, it turned into a bright golden light and slowly emerged in the mid-air. In the golden light, the originally blurry writing on the scroll appeared clearly at this moment. The spot where Liu Jun was dripping blood turned into a majestic dragon with teeth and claws.
Although the dragon pattern occupies a small area, Liu Jun was able to see it very clearly with his sharp eyes. He knew that this was the ancestral dragon he was familiar with.
"Is this some kind of mysterious contract?" Liu Jun asked doubtfully.
"This is a contract of heaven. It was given to us by a mysterious existence and told us that we can use it in the future. I think it should come into play at this moment." The high priest took his time. explained.
"By the way, he also said that if you don't want to sign this contract, you can let me show you this thing." The high priest seemed to suddenly remember something important, and then handed over a piece of paper. The yellowed paper was handed to Liu Jun.
Liu Jun opened it gently with full of curiosity, and saw clearly written on the page, "This is a great gift for you. You are welcome to be my teacher." Looking down, there was a signature below: Qingfengzi.
In fact, there is no need to even look at the signature. Just looking at the crooked handwriting like a dog crawling, Liu Jun can immediately know who wrote it.
"What kind of mysterious identity does this old man have?" Liu Jun couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, and a strong impulse suddenly surged in his heart to meet Qingfengzi immediately. It's a pity that this old man has always been a dragon that never comes to an end, and it's extremely difficult to find him.
He vaguely felt that every step he took seemed to be carefully planned by the old guy Qingfengzi. He seemed to be in a chess game, and Qingfengzi was the chess player who controlled the overall situation and the layout of the pieces.
However, even so, he never felt that Qingfengzi would be harmful to him, because without Qingfengzi, a master who was both loved and annoying, he would never have been able to reach this point.
"If you have nothing else to do, I will go back and make some preparations first. This is my adopted daughter Nia. She is very knowledgeable in various witchcrafts. She will stay with you first. You can tell her anything and she can contact me in time," the high priest said respectfully. Liu Jun raised his eyes and looked at the woman who had been silent since entering the room. Although this woman's face is not a stunning one, her figure is extremely hot. Her distinctive dress reflects a unique exotic style. However, Liu Jun was keenly aware that the woman's eyes seemed to contain deep hatred when she looked at him, and there was even a hint of murderous intent.
"Well, that's not necessary. Just leave a way to contact you." Liu Jun refused without hesitation and decisively, almost as soon as he finished speaking. He looked serious and his eyes were firm, and he was thinking to himself that no matter what, he never wanted to keep such a person with murderous intentions around him. After all, if this is the case, you can't allow yourself to stand guard with one eye while sleeping, keeping alert at all times, while sleeping with one eye, trying to get that pitiful rest. Wouldn't it be that such a day would be too scary, without any peace at all? It would be simply a kind of torture.
"You need to rest first." The high priest bowed slightly, his tone was extremely respectful, and then slowly walked out of the room with Nia. His steps were steady, and his figure looked a little blurry in the light and shadow.
Liu Jun's face was full of confusion at this moment, and he was a little confused. What is going on? He didn't even leave any contact information, so if something happened to him, how could he ask the demigods for help? What is this old man doing?
The high priest and Nia walked one behind the other, walking with steady steps to a deep and secluded alley not far from the restaurant.
"Nia." The high priest suddenly stopped and slowly turned his head to look at Nia, with some indescribable complex emotions in his eyes.
"High Priest, I, I'm sorry." Nia lowered her head, her voice was full of guilt and uneasiness, and her hands were twisting the corners of her clothes unconsciously.
"Oh, Tulu, I can use the ancestral witchcraft to revive me." The high priest looked solemn and said slowly with a long sigh.
"You, are you willing to use the art of ancestral witchcraft to resurrect Tulu?" Nia's eyes lit up instantly, and her voice was full of disbelief and surprise. Since Tulu's death, she has been immersed in deep guilt, feeling that if it weren't for herself, Tulu would not have suffered such misfortune.
“Yes, it just takes time,” the high priest frowned slightly, his face full of worry, “But the demigods have no time now. If because of you, there is a gap between the demigods and the orderer, you I will become a sinner of the demigods and will never be forgiven by my tribe.”
“I’m sorry, foster father,” Nia lowered her head, tears welling up in her eyes, “I just don’t understand. , Why do you place your hope on that person?" This time, Nia did not call the high priest, but her adoptive father affectionately.
"Because Liu Jun is the future orderer and the spokesperson of heaven." The high priest's eyes were firm and his tone was unquestionable, as if these words contained endless power and hope.
The high priest's face was solemn, and there was one thing he never revealed, that is, his own time was running out. The last time, when he peeked at Tianji with fearlessness and curiosity, he unexpectedly saw the shocking scene of Liu Jun's dialogue with Tiandao in the future. Although the picture was a glimpse and fleeting, the amount of information contained in it was overwhelming. The huge impact would break his mind almost instantly. If it weren't for the last bit of tenacious will, he would have died on the spot. Will be out of breath.
Although he barely survived the catastrophe, his life force was almost exhausted. After careful calculation, there are only ten years left at most.
These ten years may seem quite sufficient at first glance, but what is clear is that the high priest has already survived for thousands of years in these long years. For him, who has been baptized by the long years, these ten years are just as short and insignificant as a fleeting moment and a fleeting cloud.
"I understand, adoptive father, I will follow him well" Nia replied with a firm look. Deep down in her heart, she was actually full of disgust for Liu Jun, and it could even be said that she hated him to the bone. However, she also deeply understood that since her adoptive father categorically stated that the future hopes of the demigods rested entirely on Liu Jun, she must not do anything that would harm the future of the demigods because of her personal preferences and prejudices. The eternal sinner of the entire demigod clan.
"Go back. Remember, even if that person wants to drive you away, you must remain by his side and serve him well. This is also a blessing for you." High Priest He warned with a solemn look and a serious look on his face.
"I understand, foster father." Nia nodded obediently and replied with determination in her eyes.
The high priest nodded slightly, and then the tall and majestic figure slowly turned around and gradually merged into the endless darkness until it completely disappeared.
Nia stood quietly, staring at the direction the high priest left for a long time. In this quiet atmosphere, it was the first time that she felt so deeply the heavy burden of the high priest. The invisible pressure seemed to turn into reality, making people breathless.
She thought secretly in her heart that she did not want to boast about how many hardships and dangers she had to share with the high priest, but she was definitely not willing to increase the burden on the high priest. She secretly vowed to listen to the words of the high priest and serve Liu Jun wholeheartedly, even if the road ahead was full of difficulties and challenges.
