C14 Holy Family of Nine Li (1/2)

Yang Feng looked at the written words on the beast skin in his hands, he was deeply shocked by the history of the people from Xijiang Miao Zhai. He never thought that this small Miao Village would have such a grand history.

The beast skin had indeed recorded the history of the Xijiang Miao Zhai, and this history had begun with the ancestor of the Miao Man, Chi You! Chi You, the ancient demon god, was actually the founder of this small Miao Village. Chi You, the ancient demon god, was actually the founder of this small Miao Village.

Yang Feng had thought that the story of Chi You and the Yellow Emperor was a mythical story from the ancient times and was not the truth. However, the words on the beast skin in his hands seemed to be true. In ancient times, the people of Miao were called Jiu Li. At that time, the Jiu Li Clan was also one of the three ancient clans. They were divided into nine tribes, Chi You being the patriarch of these nine tribes. Chi You led the nine Li Clan people to fight everywhere, conquering all the tribes in the entire Yangtze River Basin.

At that time, the Yellow Emperor Xuan Yuan in the north fought a war with Chi You to unify the entire world after unifying the Huaxia people in the Yellow River Basin. The Nine Li Clan which Chi You led was a tribe that could fight well, and Chi You had even forged many powerful weapons. That was why in the first war, the Yellow Emperor Xuan Yuan had always been the loser. However, with the help of the God of Heaven, the Yellow Emperor fought Chi You to the death in the end.

Although Chi You was defeated, the Nine Li Clan was not completely wiped out by the Yellow Emperor Xuan Yuan, and Chi You's body was not dismembered by the five horses like the legends said. Instead, it was taken back by the warriors of the Nine Li Clan.

The Nine Li Clan originated from the Southern Wilderness, which was filled with primitive forests and mountains. It was difficult for the people of the Nine Li Clan to be able to find them once they entered, so even though the Yellow Emperor Xuan Yuan wanted to completely destroy the entire Nine Li Clan, he was unable to do so in the end.

Chi You's body was buried in the birthplace of the Nine Li Clan, and those guarding Chi You's grave were Chi You's descendants. This troop of Miao people settled down around Chi You's grave and had been guarding Chi You's grave all this time.

However, in the long history of the other nine Li tribes, two tribes had slowly formed. They were called Black Seedling and White Seedling respectively. The Miao People of these two tribes also resided in the borders of Guizhou. However, these two tribes were not harmonious with each other. There were often conflicts and conflicts between these two tribes. If not for the help of the ”genuine Chi You” descendant of the Miao Race in the Xijiang River, these two tribes would have probably been at war with each other a long time ago.

After looking at the beast skin in his hands, Yang Feng felt a little proud. After all, he was someone who also possessed the Chi You bloodline. Although Chi You had lost to the Yellow Emperor Xuan Yuan in the end and only recorded how brutal and bloodthirsty Chi You was in the history books, those were all written by the victors.

Furthermore, Chi You was not very ambitious, he just wanted to control the river basin and find a better place for the Nine Li Clan to live. However, the Yellow Emperor Xuan Yuan was not at ease with Chi You, seeing that the Nine Li Tribe was growing stronger, he decided to start a war between the two races.

Furthermore, in order to ensure the purity of Chi You's bloodline, the Miao people of this bloodline had never married anyone else of the same race. All the men of this bloodline married the women of the Miao Clan, and all the women of this bloodline married the men of the Miao Clan as well. Only Yang Feng's mother was an exception, and Yang Feng was also an exception, because he was the only one who possessed Chi You bloodline and Han bloodline.

Yang Feng returned the beast skin to the old man, and the old man handed the other beast skin over to Yang Feng. Yang Feng saw that this was the clan tree of the Miao Family, and on it were the names of all the deceased people.

Seeing this name, Yang Feng's body immediately trembled. He knew the meaning behind writing his mother's name on top of the book, which meant that his Mother Chi Ling was still a member of this bloodline. Yang Feng looked at his mother's name and his heart grew more and more excited.

”Grandfather.” Yang Feng shouted to the old man again.

”Sigh, good child, it is grandfather who has let you two down. Grandfather has no other choice, you don't know how sad I felt when I drove you two out of the village, but there was no other way. I had no choice but to do this, I hope you understand!” The old man walked in front of Yang Feng, held Yang Feng in his arms and said softly.

After Yang Feng heard the old man's words, he nodded his head and said, ”Grandfather, you don't need to say anymore. I understand.”
