900 The Origin of the Art of Forging, Sudden Change (1)
“If you can’t tolerate it, go deal with him.” Zhou Shu reached out and made an inviting gesture. “I think the giant spirit race definitely can’t defeat you. After all, you, Ji Lutian, are a Grotto-Heaven realm expert, right?”
“I…” Ji Lutian’s face flushed red. It wasn’t that he wouldn’t fight. It was just that he couldn’t open the bronze door.
“Open that door for me. See if I don’t kill that big fool!” Ji Lutian said. “Back then, I killed countless demonic beasts even bigger than him!”
“You can’t open it, and I can’t either.” Zhou Shu shook his head. “You, the owner of everything within a fifty-kilometer radius of this place, can’t open it. How can I?”
“That’s different. Isn’t that girl your daughter? If you can’t do what your daughter can, then you’re too embarrassing as a father!” Ji Lutian said.
Zhou Shu’s face darkened. It would have been fine if he didn’t mention this. But once he did, he felt uncomfortable all over.
He came here purely out of curiosity. In the end, he didn’t get any benefits and even lost his daughter!
His daughter became the princess of the giant spirit race. She would probably never call him daddy again.
When he thought he would never see the little girl hugging his thigh again, he felt his heart ache.
The current Xiaoyu’er would probably never wheedle him again.
Not to mention wheedling, she wouldn’t even call him daddy.
But then again, it seemed awkward for a girl her age to call him daddy.
“Aren’t you too aggrieved as the king of the giant spirit race?” Ji Lutian chattered on.
Zhou Shu rolled his eyes. The Ji Lutian I know isn’t so talkative.
Speaking of which, who is this Ji Lutian?
“I’ll say it again. I’m not from the giant spirit race,” Zhou Shu said helplessly. “As for you, Ji Lutian, are you human?”
“Nonsense. Of course I’m human. Can’t you tell?” Ji Lutian puffed out his chest.
“Since you’re human, why didn’t I see you come out to resist the demonic beasts when they invaded?” Zhou Shu asked tentatively while paying attention to the movement of the snow on the ground.
“I was cultivating in seclusion,” Ji Lutian said indifferently. “Now that I’ve succeeded in my cultivation, I came out to vanquish the demonic beasts and let us humans truly become the rulers of the world!”
Ji Lutian held his head high and puffed out his chest confidently.
Zhou Shu pursed his lips, disapproving.
Although this Ji Lutian was at the Grotto-Heaven realm, he might not be much stronger than the other Ji Lutian.
With such strength, it was wishful thinking to vanquish the demonic beasts.
But Zhou Shu couldn’t be bothered to say this to Ji Lutian. Even if he did, Ji Lutian wouldn’t believe him.
“Ji Lutian, you’re knowledgeable. Can you tell me more about the giant spirit race so that I can broaden my horizons?” Zhou Shu continued asking.
“You’re asking the right person.” Ji Lutian laughed proudly. “Apart from me, I’m afraid not many humans know about it.
“A long time ago, there were no humans in the world. Apart from the giant spirit race, there were many other races in the world. The giant spirit race created the art of forging and used the power of divine weapons to defeat other races and become the ruler of the world.
“At the time, the king of the giant spirit race…”
At this point, Ji Lutian glanced at Zhou Shu.
Zhou Shu rolled his eyes. Xiaoyu’er might be the princess of the giant spirit race, but he wasn’t the king of the giant spirit race!
“After the giant spirit race became the ruler of the world, all races were intimidated. The king of the giant spirit race was invincible in the world. He was insatiable and wanted to become stronger,” Ji Lutian continued. “But there were no more opponents for him in the world. Therefore, he made a choice, which was to go against Heaven and try to replace Heaven!”
Zhou Shu’s pupils constricted slightly. Wasn’t the giant spirit race persecuted by Heaven like the human race? They took the initiative to attack?
“Although the giant spirit race was powerful, what kind of existence is Heaven? He is the true ruler of the world! As you can imagine, the giant spirit race suffered a disastrous defeat. The king of the giant spirit race died in battle, and the entire army of the giant spirit race was wiped out.”
Ji Lutian shook his head. “Heaven sent down a catastrophic heavenly tribulation and killed all the giant spirits. From then on, there were no more giant spirits in the world.
“After countless years, we humans were born into the world…
“There’s also a saying that we’re related to the giant spirit race. It is said that we are the remnants of the giant spirit race. Supposedly, the giant spirits used themselves as a reference to create the human race with a supreme divine ability. But I don’t believe this. Giant spirits are all stupid. And how can they be as beautiful as us humans?”
Zhou Shu rolled his eyes. This Ji Lutian doesn’t forget to be narcissistic even when talking about serious matters.
Zhou Shu pondered. “Ji Lutian, you said that the giant spirit race created the art of forging. Is their art of forging related to our human race’s art of forging?”
“You’re smart! Just like me,” Ji Lutian said. “Our human race’s art of forging is the same as the art of forging created by the giant spirit race.
“Legend has it that the art of forging contains the secret of the giant spirit race becoming the ruler of the world. I don’t believe that either.”
Ji Lutian curled his lips. “We humans rely on our strength to walk the world, and divine weapons are only supplementary. Moreover, there aren’t as many races in the world now. As long as we defeat the demonic beasts, we will be the rulers of the world. There’s no need to learn from the giant spirit race.”
Ji Lutian was very conceited and seemed to think nothing of forging.
