327 God Chaser, Di Xin (2/2)
”I do not know…” Jiang Fei answered. He then turned to Isabella. Perhaps this ancient Nephilim Princess would know something.
”Prince Wugeng…” Isabella muttered to herself when she heard the name. It seemed that Isabella did know the person.
”Bella? You know this person?” asked Jiang Fei.
”Hoho… I know more than that!” said Isabella as her facial expression changed from curiosity to admiration.
”7,000 years ago, there was a human empire that had dominated and ruled everything there was to rule.”
”However, his greed… his ambition was so huge that he did not stop at ruling the earth! Once he knew that the gods exist, he targeted them too!” said Isabella, her eyes glittering with admiration.
”Gods? You mean the Celestials?” asked Jiang Fei.
”NO! Celestials… Nephilim… These are but names that we gave ourselves. During that time, we were all but under his ruling!” said Isabella. Despite saying that, her tone and expression was not that of shame or anger, but of admiration.
”Who is he?” asked Jiang Fei.
”The man who ruled heaven and earth. The God Chaser, Di Xin!”
”God Chaser?”
”That's right. The man who dared to chase after the gods! After he had accomplished his goal in this realm, he did not feel satisfied. He then planned to even have the gods bend their knee to him. That was when he decided to pierce through heaven!”
”Pierce through heaven?” Little Rain got curious.
”Yes! A mortal declaring war to the gods!”
”Huh? In that case, where is he now? Sleeping?” said Zhao Feng.
”No! He won the war!” said Isabella as she grew increasingly excited.
”HE WON?! Now that's a real man!”
”When he was winning the war, he even slew several prominent gods!”
”What happened next?” asked Jiang Fei. When Isabella said ”when he was winning”, that could only mean something bad had happened to Di Xin. If he had truly won the war, there would not be so many temples and shrines that praised other gods.
”When the gods were cornered, they decided to use a sly tactic. They sent down a beautiful goddess to court Di Xin and have her assassinate him!” said Isabella. At that point, her tone and expression turned somber.
”Please continue,” prompted Jiang Fei.
”After Di Xin's death, his son, Prince Wugeng, the Heaven's Son, inherited the throne and killed the goddess who killed his father. He did not stop there. His vengeance went all the way up to the heavens. Although he was incredibly strong, he was not his father. In the end, he succumbed to death.”
”That means, the person sleeping in that coffin would be…”
”It has to be Prince Wugeng! There is no one else that I could think of who could enslave the Five Mythological Beast to guard his tomb!”
