Then, his heart was suddenly moved, and he looked at the old man who was the protector. Suddenly, he had some sort of enlightenment…
“Elder, you… Is this a condensed, divided soul that turned into an entity…”
“The real you?”
He said these words as he looked up.
The old man smiled. “It is true that the Genbu Ancestor has favored you. You’re quick to recognize it.”
Alex was still shocked after getting the old man’s confirmation. It turned out that his suspicions were right…When they first came in, they blasted a hole. When they did, the hole bled, and the whole passage went soft. However, it was also firm and elastic, like the bowels of some living object. Now, the old man had confirmed that the so-called Holy Land of Sota, was in fact, the old man’s body.
This was a turtle the size of heaven and earth. Inside it was his little world.
The old man sat down, sighed gently, and said, “From the invasion of the undying clan, the protectors of the True Martial Shrine have actually changed thirteen times, and I am the last. After my death, there will be no more protectors, and the True Martial Shrine will also disappear forever at the end of the world.”
Alex was shocked. “Elder, how could this happen?”
A deep sorrow formed on the old man’s face, “During the ancient war, the community wiped our Genbu clan out. Originally, only two clansmen were left, Genbu Ancestor and me. Now, Genbu Ancestor is also dead, and when I die, the Genbu clan’s three thousand year legacy will fade completely from the face of history. Sigh, it is sad… In fact, the undying clan’s harm and influence on the universe are extremely far-reaching. How many among the once flourishing mythical Four Great Guardian creatures and eight sacred beasts can leave a spark now?”
The old man’s slow voice was full of precipitation and sadness. Alex thought of the Benares Dragons.
Wasn’t Neela the only one who was left alone too?
Tears flowed down from the old man’s eyes.
At this time, those who had just been immersed in the joy of reunion also quietly gathered over. He had once met Luna’s father, Gilbert, Alex’s de facto father-in-law, during the ancient forcefield battle, but at that time, he was guilty. After meeting briefly, he left without even saying a word.
Martiny winked at Alex and whispered, “Still not calling him father-in-law?”
Alex’s heart shuddered. He finally had to pay for the whims of his lower half.
“Father-in-law…”
Gilbert waved his hand, “All right. Sit down and listen to the seniors.”
The senior he mentioned was naturally the old man, the protector. The old man was immersed in history while talking about the fact that there would be no future senior protector. The crowd learned from his sharing that the first protector of the True Martial Shrine was once Genbu Emperor.
After passing the trial, Genbu Emperor was rewarded by the True Martial Starlord, but he also shouldered the duties of the Protector of the True Martial Shrine. Later, however, Genbu Emperor found another clan member to become the Protector instead of him. No new people passed the trial. Thus, this protector became part of the Genbu clan’ s affairs until the undying clan invaded the True Martial Shrine.
This became a nightmare for the protector.
