Nie Tian walked into the small courtyard step by step. Because he was unsure, he took every step carefully.
This is a secluded small courtyard, very elegant. Some medicinal herbs are planted in an orderly manner in the courtyard, and the air is filled with a fresh and light fragrance.
In the center of the small courtyard is an old tree more than ten meters high. Its shape looks a bit strange, and its breath is very unique.
Nie Tian actually smelled the blood aura in that tree, and even a trace of the Heaven-Slaying Demonic Aura.
He stared at the strange tree for a long time, but didn't find anything weird.
"Is anyone there?" After a moment, he couldn't help it anymore and called out tentatively.
"Little baby, is your name Nie Tian?" Just before he finished speaking, a deep voice sounded in the courtyard. It was dull and hoarse, making it look very old, giving people a feeling of weakness and decay. .
"Who?" Nie Tian was stunned for a moment, shocked.
He did not notice any figure in the small courtyard, and the deep voice seemed to come from the void, which was very strange.
"Don't be afraid, I'm right in front of you." The voice sounded again, seemingly laughing, but it seemed older.
"In front of me?" Nie Tian's eyes darkened, and then he stared at the strange tree in front of him. His face became more and more shocked, and finally he froze.
He couldn't believe his eyes. There was a human face vaguely printed on the trunk of the strange tree.
This face is very blurry, and if you don't look carefully, you can't see it at all.
But Nie Tian was very convinced that it was a human face!
"Little baby, don't panic, I'm in the tree in front of you." At this time, the voice continued to sound, saying in a deep voice.
"You are really in the tree!" Nie Tian looked stunned, but finally calmed down, but his eyes were trembling.
He was right. The person he was talking to was in the tree in front of him.
It seems that this person and this tree have merged and become one.
"Little baby, my name is Mu Ya, and I am the ancestor of the Mu family." Then, the human face in the tree spoke again, saying: "Jiuchuan has already told me about you. I am very sure that you are the one I want to wait for." people."
"Am I the one you want to wait for?" Nie Tian was stunned for a moment, with a look of astonishment on his face.
It turns out that the person in the tree is the ancestor of the Mu family, named Mu Ya.
But why did Mu Ya say that Nie Tian was the one he wanted to wait for?
"Little baby, aren't you looking for the Mu family in Qincheng? I was the patriarch of the Mu family in Qincheng back then, and I was also the one who made the deal with Emperor Hades." Mu Ya spoke in a deep voice, but there was a sense of depression in his voice. of anger.
"Do you know the Underworld Emperor?" Nie Tian was stunned again, feeling quite surprised.
"Of course." Mu Ya seemed to sneer and said, "This despicable villain is the one who caused the tragedy for the Mu family. How can I forget him!"
"Tragedy in the Mu family?" Nie Tian was stunned again. Mu Ya's words made him more and more confused.
"Nie Tian, I don't have much time. I can only briefly tell you what happened back then." Mu Ya said solemnly, and then recounted what happened between him and the Hades Emperor.
It turns out that Emperor Hades cooperated with Mu Ya in order to find people from the Sansheng clan.
Mu Ya helped him find the Sansheng Ancestral Land, and the Underworld Emperor left the Zhutian blood mark in Mu Ya's body.
Originally, Mu Ya thought that Zhutian Blood Seal was a kind of power, a power that could greatly enhance his strength, and he needed this power to take revenge.
But later he learned that the Zhutian Blood Seal was actually a bloodline curse seal.
The Zhutian Blood Seal could indeed increase his strength, but it also caused great damage to his martial body.
As he became stronger and stronger, the damage caused by the Zhutian Blood Seal to his martial body became more and more serious.
What's even more terrifying is that Zhutian's blood seal has been integrated with the power of his bloodline, and has been passed down to his descendants through the bloodline.
Therefore, the people of the Mu family after him all have the blood mark of Zhu Tian in their bodies.
Moreover, the stronger the bloodline power of the Mu family, the stronger the Zhutian blood seal will be.
The most vicious thing about the Zhutian Blood Seal is that it will constantly devour the blood of the warrior, eventually causing the warrior to die of blood exhaustion.
Therefore, most of the descendants of the Mu family are short-lived. Many of them died when they were directly devoured by the Zhutian Blood Seal when they reached the holy realm.
On the contrary, those herders with weaker bloodline lived longer.
In this way, the herders with stronger talents died earlier, while those with weaker talents survived.
Over time, the Mu family's strength became weaker and weaker.
By now, the Mu family has been completely reduced to an unknown small family in the Xuluo Realm, and they can only survive in a third-rate small town like Jiubian City.
"What a vicious Hades Emperor!" After hearing what Mu Ya said, Nie Tian's eyes trembled slightly and his face became extremely gloomy.
The poisonous nature of Emperor Pluto's treatment of those who had helped him is evident.
The Mu family is indeed miserable. There is such a sinister blood mark in the power of blood, which is like a curse for generations.
Come to think of it, the Mu family must have been very powerful back then, otherwise it would have been impossible for them to still exist as a force now.
"Senior, is it because of this tree that you have been able to live so long?" At this time, Nie Tian's eyes narrowed slightly and he couldn't help but ask curiously.
Since Mu Ya was from the same period as the Hades Emperor, his age should be millions of years, or even tens of millions of years.
Nie Tian was not sure at what period the Underworld Emperor was a monster. Anyway, this guy had been sleeping for who knows how long just in the realm.
Mu Ya has the Heaven-Destroying Blood Seal in his body, but he can still survive to this day, which should be related to his current form.
"Yes." Mu Ya responded solemnly and said: "After I realized the backlash of Zhutian's blood seal, it was already too late, but I didn't want to die, I wanted revenge. So I used different methods to combine my body with the dragon's. The mulberry and locust trees fused together, and they have survived until now.”
"It's true." Nie Tian twitched the corner of his mouth and his heart trembled.
A person, for revenge, fuses his body with a tree, which is tantamount to imprisoning himself.
Moreover, this imprisonment lasted for millions of years. It was such a lonely and long time. The pain Mu Ya endured was unimaginable.
From this we can also see how much he hates the Hades Emperor.
"Senior, what do you mean when you say that the person you want to wait for is me?" Nie Tian calmed down and continued to ask.
"I would rather imprison myself than let myself live, just to wait for someone, someone who can avenge my Mu family!" Mu Ya said in a low voice, and on the blurry face, eyes like rotten wood were actually It released a strange light.
That light is the desire for revenge and the hatred that has been accumulated for millions of years!
