“But later, I discovered that there was someone behind him who was secretly pushing him along. They seemed to also be looking for your remnant parts. So, we played along and allowed him to search, to see if he could find it or not.”

The old man looked at the sky, “This world is not safe, especially in Dongli. You know this as well. There are bound to be some who know about your affairs and the history of those years, and they want to take the opportunity to make some things happen. They want to find you, control you, and change you. At that time, there will be another “Xinghai Sword Disaster”. We can’t possibly just watch such a thing happen.”

“At first, we thought that this young comrade should be a chess piece for those guys. Later, we found out that they shouldn’t be so stupid to use such a genius as a chess piece. However, who can know what those lunatics are thinking? So…” The old man looked at the Tao Divine Sword and Wang Ye, “You can’t leave. At the very least, you need to go back with me to undergo an investigation.”

After hearing this… Wang Ye narrowed his eyes.

The people Ji Wuming was talking about should be the Dark Fog Cult.

“As for your identity as the demon sword…” Ji Wuming said slowly, “History can not be changed. You did help us back then, but you also killed many beastmasters.”

“Wasn’t that because you humans couldn’t bear the responsibility back then?” Xiao Tao said sarcastically, “You want to pin these crimes on us in the past?”

Ji Wuming was silent for a moment before saying, “Still, didn’t you also kill those people back then? And… actually… Forget it. There’s no point in saying all this now. It’s all in the past.”

Wang Ye thought to himself, “So that’s when the demonized Xiao Tao should have been born.”

Senior Xiao Tao had thus given birth to another personality, no, a sword character?

Well, it was mainly due to the situation where its companions had been killed, but the humans at that time even made a false accusation. Later on, the more it thought about it, the angrier it became, and thus the birth of demonized Xiao Tao.

“Of course, if there really is no problem with you, we won’t seal you,” Ji Wuming shook his head and said, “But if you are still related to the dark fog, or if you still have those pets that have been infected with the power of strangeness by your side, we may restrict you.”

“Then there’s nothing more to say,” Xiao Tao’s sword hummed, “You have your stand, and I have my way of the sword. I, the magnificent peachwood divine sword, can kill strange gods as easy and common as eating, yet you want to restrict me? I’m afraid that’s impossible.”

“I don’t want to be your enemy,” The old man said in a deep voice, “This situation of us facing off will probably allow those guys in the dark to gloat over our misfortune. If both sides are injured, it won’t be good for anyone!”

“That’s a nice way of putting it,” Xiao Tao said with a laugh, “If not for the fact that you saw me with the strength I have now, you might have already made a move to suppress me, right? Do you think I’m one of those two or three-year-old pets?”

“Of course,” The old man said calmly, “This world operates on the law of the jungle, to begin with. Without equal strength, you don’t even have the right to speak. Take the divine pond back then as an example. If we weren’t strong, the beastmasters from abroad would covet and snatch it. The great war was inevitable. Under such circumstances, if we chose to protect the humans and pets in the city, the divine pond would’ve been snatched away. If that happened, it would be hard to say if there would even be a Xinghai Province now. As for Dongli, it would’ve probably been nibbled away a long time ago.”

“You dare to say such words in front of the members of your Investigation Corps?” Xiao Tao pointed her sword at the old man, “Aren’t you afraid that they’ll mock you?”

“Mock me?” The old man sneered, “Only those who survive can mock others. If we hadn’t fought with those foreign beastmasters back then, it would be a question as to whether they would even be here. What right do they have to mock me?”

Long Wu and the others by the side fell silent.

Indeed, only this heroic old man knew about the history. He was the only one who had survived.

Most of the others had already passed away.

At this moment, when the truth came out of his mouth, these Qixing Investigation Corps’ investigators who had witnessed countless cruelty, understood it beyond comprehension.

“If you want revenge and want to fight, I will not refuse. However, you should think it through, the consequences of both of us suffering casualties,” The old man’s voice gradually became deeper.

Xiao Tao was silent.

To be honest, it did not matter to it anymore.

It had long been indifferent to life and death. The only reason it was staying alive now was probably just because it wanted to see its remaining companions.

Worse come to worst, it would die. However, this shouldn’t be the end for the young man next to it.

It thought about it and was about to speak when Wang Ye, who had been at the side, suddenly said, “How about I fight you?”

When these words were said, the crowd was stunned.

Even Chen He and Xia Wange, who had been observing the scene from afar, both fell silent.

Long Wu and many other investigators at the scene were simply dumbfounded.

Ji Wuming froze for a long time and looked at Wang Ye, “You?”

“That’s right, me,” Wang Ye nodded, “I’m just afraid that you wouldn’t dare.”

“Hahahahahaha…” Ji Wuming suddenly laughed, “Little comrade, you are powerful, much more powerful than me back then. If you didn’t have ties to those evil spawns of the Dark Fog Cult, you are truly a supreme genius… Even so, you might have some misunderstandings about me. Why would you think that I wouldn’t dare?”

“To be honest, I have a pet,” Wang Ye said, “I think that you wouldn’t quite dare to fight that pet, though it’s hard to say whether it’s a match for you or not.”

“What kind of pet is that?” Ji Wuming sneered, “Could it be a Supreme class pet? If that’s true, I wouldn’t dare.”

“It’s not,” Wang Ye sighed, “It’s just an ordinary King class pet.”

“Oh, right,” Wang Ye thought for a moment and said, “It’s called Chiyu. I wonder if you dare to face it?”

The moment these words were said, Ji Wuming’s pupils abruptly constricted and waves of vibration suddenly appeared in the air. His aura instantly became extremely chaotic!
