Chapter 458: Chapter 426: Descendants of the Martial God_1

“Descendant of a Martial God?”

The audience in the auction house was immediately taken aback.

It had been over five hundred years since the last Martial God passed away, and his descendants had been completely wiped out from the continent over a hundred years ago.

Everyone was shocked and confused about the sudden claim of a Martial God’s descendant.

Logically, such a precious auction item should have been announced in advance. Otherwise, those who could afford it might not show up, which would prevent it from fetching a high price.

To clear up people’s doubts, Ren Qingzhu explained promptly.

Firstly, they had only recently captured this descendant of the Martial God, so they had not disclosed this information beforehand.

Furthermore, they did not plan to sell off the Martial God’s descendant completely but only a portion of her blood, along with the rights to her offspring.

It was acceptable to sell the blood, as many martial artists conduct research in this area, with the most notable result being the sealing of the essence blood of the wilderness beast.

According to ancient legends, before the Essence Blood Sealing Skill was invented, martial artists had to use live beasts for advancement. The cultivation difficulty was much higher than it is now.

The rights to the offspring were somewhat peculiar, but if someone could win the auction, they could specify a person to have a child with the descendant of the Martial God. The offspring would then belong to the auction winner.

“Yuan Tong Business Firm is too despicable! How can they auction this?” Yin Wen exclaimed indignantly.

She had heard that the descendant of the Martial God was a young woman. Such ruthless and insulting act naturally resonated with her.

“How could the descendant of a Martial God stoop so low?” Yang Jiang queried, perplexed.

Although martial talent is not wholly hereditary, it does pass down to some extent.

Presumably, descendants of a Martial God should not be weak. Even if they hadn’t established their own country, they shouldn’t have been enslaved.

“Because there are always too many greedy people in this world,” Xu Mu replied indifferently.

When a martial artist reaches the realm of a Martial God, the nature of his life changes, and the talent of his offspring will greatly increase.

However, martial artists and cultivators are different. Although they value talent, they do not exaggerate its importance.

Even a dancer with excellent talent would not reach a high level without hard practice.

In this world, there is no permanent nation, and naturally, no permanent clan. Those who remain in high status for a long time would eventually fall.

The very talent that people once helped them with gradually becomes the root cause of their misfortune.

Prominent martial artists who want to become Martial Gods typically target Martial God families, causing them significant harm.

After all, a clan, no matter how talented, can’t compete against the whole world.

If the clan leader were clever, he would choose to change the clan name and go into seclusion when their power declines. But human greed often makes it hard for them to give up the eminent status they once had.

Failing to do so, the clan would be exterminated.

Many clans, forces, and even people have perished for the same reasons. Only the Martial God family drew more attention due to their tragic circumstances.

“If you’re interested, Master, I can negotiate with Yuan Tong Business Firm later, to see if we can buy her outright,” Xiao Tian Yuan proposed.

Xu Mu shook his head.

While he was indeed interested in the Martial God’s descendant, he didn’t place much importance on her alone.

What he needed was information about the Martial Gods, as that would be the most useful for him.

Now, that information was likely held by the countries that possessed Martial Emperors.
