Chapter 906 - 906 Unparalleled Expert Who Goes Against Heaven (1)
A sword beam flashed, and an asura in the air shed green blood. There was a shocking wound on his wings. In an instant, the wings flickered and disappeared with the asura.
The other asuras flapped their wings and flew into the distance.
Zhou Shu stood with his sword and didn’t pursue.
Seeing the asuras fly away, all the giant spirits, who had just fought the asuras, heaved a sigh of relief and sat weakly on the ground.
Although the battle just now hadn’t been too long, the giant spirit race had suffered heavy casualties. Everyone who participated in the battle was injured.
Uncle Bai was seriously injured and had already fallen to the ground, unable to get up.
A group of old, weak, women, and children of the giant spirit race ran out from the stronghold behind them. They skillfully bandaged the wounds of the giant spirit warriors, and some of them carried the heavily injured ones on stretchers back to the stronghold.
Even Ling’er, a child of the giant spirit race, was busy running around.
After a long time, peace returned to the battlefield. Uncle Bai, who was covered in bandages, came in front of Zhou Shu.
Plop—
He knelt on one knee in front of Zhou Shu and said in a deep voice, “You saved my life. From now on, my life is yours. As long as you don’t endanger our giant spirit race, I’ll do whatever you ask me.”
Zhou Shu shook his head. “You’re welcome. If you want to thank someone, then thank Ling’er. I saved you because she begged me. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have saved you.”
“Ling’er?” Uncle Bai was slightly stunned.
“Get up. Aren’t you embarrassed about kneeling on the ground?” Zhou Shu said.
“I will thank Ling’er, but I will also repay you for saving my life. Our giant spirit race will definitely repay your kindness!” Uncle Bai said stubbornly.
“Alright, if you must repay me, I have some questions for you. Get up first,” Zhou Shu said.
“Okay, I’ll tell you everything I know.” Uncle Bai’s attitude was completely different from when he met Zhou Shu in the mountains.
…
Two hours later, Zhou Shu, who was sitting outside the giant spirit race’s stronghold, revealed a thoughtful expression.
Uncle Bai was a man of his word. He had indeed answered all Zhou Shu’s questions honestly. He had even ran to other giant spirits to ask them the questions he didn’t have answers for.
After a series of questions, Zhou Shu finally understood his current environment.
They had indeed gone back to ancient times. The giant spirit race had yet to dominate the world.
To be precise, currently, the giant spirit race was just an inconspicuous race in the world, and there were countless races stronger than them. The current giant spirit race had yet to invent the art of forging and survived by relying on their copper skin and iron bones.
However, their copper skin and iron bones were not very outstanding in the current world. For some reason, all the creatures in the current world were huge in size, and the innate endowments of the giant spirits were not advantageous.
In Zhou Shu’s opinion, the giant spirit race’s powerful bodies could only be considered average compared to other races.
For example, the body of the asura race was far stronger than that of the giant spirit race. Giant spirits were even just food for asuras!
At the same time, Zhou Shu also knew that the races in the world today relied on their innate abilities to fight. Cultivation didn’t exist.
For the giant spirit race, when they were born, they had strength comparable to first-rank martial artists. As they grew, their strength would continue to increase. Adult giant spirits generally had strength comparable to Earth Immortals. Those who were stronger had strength comparable to the Grotto-Heaven realm.
It had to be said that the existences of this era were definitely geniuses among geniuses compared to the human race and demonic beasts in the future.
One had to know that in later generations, humans had to undergo arduous cultivation to have such strength. It might be better for demonic beasts, but no one could have the strength of a Great Demon when they reached adulthood without doing anything.
Zhou Shu had also indirectly probed about the existence of the bronze palace, but Uncle Bai didn’t know anything about it. He didn’t know whether the giant spirit race didn’t have the bronze palace yet, or if Uncle Bai’s status was not high enough to know about it.
“You said before that your king went to the black feather race to negotiate. What’s going on?” Zhou Shu asked.
“If our king and our warriors hadn’t gone to the black feather race, the asura race wouldn’t have been so impudent!” Uncle Bai gritted his teeth. “It’s like this. The black feather race wants to form an alliance with our giant spirit race, and our king went over to negotiate with them.
“Since he’s there to negotiate an alliance, why did that asura say that your king won’t be able to return?” Zhou Shu frowned. “Is there a conspiracy here?”
Uncle Bai pondered and said, “Conspiracy? No way. The black feather race isn’t strong. Even if there’s a conspiracy, with their strength, the king and the others aren’t afraid of the black feather race.”
“What if there’s more than the black feather race? What if the asura race is there as well?” Zhou Shu asked.
“Then…” Uncle Bai immediately looked flustered. “I was wondering why the black feather race suddenly wanted to form an alliance with us and why the asura race suddenly came knocking on our door. They must have colluded!
“No, I have to bring people to meet our king!”
Uncle Bai stood up anxiously and walked toward the stronghold.
