757 Hellfire Virtue Monumen (2/2)
Qin Mu said respectfully, ”Earth Count is fair in his rewards and punishments, he is impartial. This matter is settled beautifully!”
Left Soul Guardian thought to himself, 'You have done so much evil, so aren't you scared?'
Of course, he didn't dare to say this out directly.
He continued to walk forward, and they met another person. It was the primordial spirit of a half-god. He was carrying a mountain and walking in the hellfire. He got burned until he kept crying out in pain.
”This is Xie Wuqi, Crown Prince of the Dragon Han Celestial Heavens. He is a strong practitioner that has the bloodline of Celestial Emperor and Celestial Empress. When he grew to adulthood, his abilities were equivalent to a strong practitioner on Emperor's Throne, thus he rebelled and tried to usurp the throne. After he died, he was suppressed here,” said Left Soul Guardian.
”Half-god, Emperor's Throne?”
The big-headed baby instantly drooled like a waterfall and rubbed his hands in excitement. Qin Mu suddenly felt his body becoming shorter, and he saw himself crawling over towards Xie Wuqi as he planned to eat him.
”Brother, don't be reckless! It's more important to meet mother!”
The big baby sighed in pity and only then did Qin Mu recover control of his body.
They continued forward, and Left Guardian Mo Qimi said, ”The deeper the gods are being suppressed at, the greater their sins are. From the past to the present, all great criminals are being suppressed here. No matter how evil or powerful they were when they were alive, they will still have to suffer here once they die!” After saying that, he took another glance at Qin Mu.
Qin Mu still didn't notice anything.
”My mother has never committed any evil, so why is she suppressed at the deepest part of the monument forest?”
The big-headed baby was rather indignant, and he said angrily, ”It's all my fault, mother is not involved. Earth Count isn't fair, if I catch him, I'll eat him after plucking off his head and legs!”
Left Soul Guardian shuddered, and he thought to himself, 'This guy is unreasonably cruel.'
They continued forward and saw more and more primordial spirits of strong practitioners that were suppressed here. No matter how remarkable they were when they were alive, they still had to suffer hellfire like ordinary people.
And this kind of torture seemed to have no end, and they didn't know when they would be released.
'Is mother also going through such torture?' Qin Mu felt a pang of sorrow.
After passing by god knows how many Hellfire Virtue Monuments, they finally came to the center of the monument forest.
Over here, the monuments were densely packed with one every three to five steps. However, not many primordial spirits could be seen.
Qin Mu was puzzled, and he suddenly saw the black stone tablets forming a huge circle. This circle was about three thousand yards in radius, and there were still stone tablets forming layers and layers of hoops in the circle.
Looking at the center of the circle, there was a god with bull horns and a tiger head being shackled by black chains. Hellfire burned continuously around his body.
Qin Mu's expression changed drastically, and he looked at Left Soul Guardian. However, Mo Qimi didn't seem to see the god that was being suppressed and walked around it.
Qin Mu stretched out his hand to lift him up before asking pleasantly, ”Lord Left Guardian, what is up with the Earth Count in the monument forest? Why is there an Earth Count suppressed here?”
”Don't be reckless!”
Left Soul Guardian cried out. ”I would rather die and not say a word!”
Qin Mu threw him to the big-headed baby, and Qing Fengqing hugged him tightly. ”Brother is so nice, I'm really going to eat, time to eat!”
”I'll say!”
Qin Mu hurriedly grabbed him back, and Qin Fengqing was furious. He raised his two fists and smacked ruthlessly at Qin Mu's head. ”Bad brother! I'll beat you to death!”
”That is Earth Count's reincarnation.”
Left Soul Guardian still hadn't recovered from his shock and quickly touched his head. He gave a sigh of relief when he realized his head was still attached. ”During the early period of the Dragon Han Era, Earth Count reincarnated once, and this body was him who had reincarnated.”
Qin Mu's face was all bruised, and he used creation divine arts to remove the bruises by improving his blood circulation. He asked curiously, ”So why has Earth Count suppressed his reincarnation here?”
Left Soul Guardian said, ”I was born during the High Emperor Era, how would I know these ancient matters?”
Qin Mu lifted him up again, and Left Soul Guardian hurriedly said, ”I'll say! I'll just say everything, will that do?”
Qin Mu placed him down, and Left Soul Guardian hesitated for a moment. He looked around and said with a low voice, ”So I've heard... I've heard rumors so it might not be real! Don't spread it out and don't say it's me who told you this!”
Qin Mu nodded his head repeatedly.
”I've heard that Earth Count reincarnated then because he wanted to find a way to improve himself and also allow his bloodline to be passed down. After he reincarnated, he still looked the same, but he had a body of flesh and blood. He then discovered he had seven emotions and six desires. But because he was ugly...”
Left Soul Guardian hesitated for a moment and asked pitifully, ”You really won't spread it out?”
”Don't worry!”
Qin Mu patted his chest heavily and said, ”If I spread it, I will be erased by heaven and earth! Quickly tell me!”
Qin Fengqing also got curious and hurried him. ”So what happened after he was ugly?”
”Because he was ugly, he wasn't too welcome by people.”
Left Soul Guardian gulped his saliva and plucked up his courage. ”Everyone started to shout at him and viewed him as a demonic monster. There were also some ancient beings that knew he had reincarnated, and they knew it was a good time to get rid of him, so they laid their hands on him. Because of his own identity, Earth Count didn't retaliate. Then came the day when his wife and daughter were killed, and Earth Count's devil nature went berserk. He actually wasn't limited by the law of Youdu, and so he retaliated...”
He revealed a look of terror on his face, and his voice was hoarse. ”I've heard many ancient gods died, and the half-gods that died were uncountable. After Earth Count returned, he suppressed his reincarnation and let his reincarnation suffer here...”
