Chapter 732: Chapter 278: Medicine King’s True Face, Hypocrite

“Four hundred years ago, the curator of the Divine Concealment Emperor Exhibition Hall made an exception and accepted a child from the Green Blood Clan as a student. This was a historic moment for the Green Blood Clan. After that, the Green Blood People could also have a decent job.”

“Two hundred years ago, our clan had a geologist who worked in the Emperor City. After retiring, that elder returned to live in our tribe. Once, during an expedition, he ventured into a naturally formed sinkhole terrain and discovered a peculiar colored mineral beneath the forest floor where we lived.”

“He had never seen such a mineral before and thought it was a new discovery. He collected dozens of minerals from the sinkhole and couldn’t wait to take them back to the Emperor City’s laboratory for testing…”

Cruz suddenly clenched his fists, hammering the vine armrest beneath him into a different shape.

Xu Xingguang stared at the sunken fist hole, hearing Cruz’s painful and angry growl: “That elder found that the geological database already had records of these minerals. More importantly, these minerals contained trace amounts of toxins. They wouldn’t cause significant harm to the human body, but for humans living long-term in areas with concentrated minerals, fertility rates would drastically decrease!”

Xu Xingguang’s heart pounded.

“Does the Central Yu Alliance know about this?” Xu Xingguang wondered aloud.

Cruz’s face was frosty as she sneered, “These minerals were recorded in the geological database long ago, which means someone had discovered their existence long ago. The Central Yu Alliance left the large northern forests untouched, choosing to settle in the central and southern regions. Miss Xu, do you really think such a coincidence would happen in this world?”

Xu Xingguang gently shook her head, unable to refute.

It seems that the leaders of the Central Yu Alliance had long known about the toxic minerals hidden beneath the Kenda Mountain Range, which is why they didn’t settle there.

And they, knowing full well that living in the Kenda Mountain Range long-term would lead to reduced fertility, deliberately placed the survivors of the Green Blood Clan in the Kenda Mountain Range. It truly is a malicious act, deserving of condemnation.

Their actions are essentially no different from those of the Eastern Alliance Army.

They are all in the act of exterminating the Green Blood People.

The only difference is that the Eastern Alliance Army chose an aggressive method of occupation and expulsion, whereas they chose a slow, insidious form of poisoning.

Cruz laughed at herself. She said, “Two thousand years ago, Hero Cang Xueyang rescued us from the Eastern Alliance Army, intending to lead us to settle on the Divine Hidden Continent. But the Medicine King from the Central Yu Alliance persuaded her to send us to the Kenda Mountain Range instead.”

“In the early years, like everyone in the Central Yu Alliance, we saw the Medicine King as a benefactor and adored him. It wasn’t until over two hundred years ago when our people discovered the truth about low fertility that we realized that the Medicine King was a wolf in sheep’s clothing!”

“In my opinion, the Eastern Alliance is ruthless, and the people of the Central Yu Alliance are smiling tigers; none of them are good. As for the Divine Hidden Alliance…”

Cruz frowned and only said, “Whether they are good or bad, we don’t care. But, my people will always remember Hero Cang Xueyang’s virtues. She is the true savior.”

Cang Xueyang.

Xu Xingguang still remembered this girl. She was Cang Yu’s sister and Dongfang Jing’s wife.

Dongfang Jing was the young master of the Dongfang Family and one of the deputy commanders of the National Defense Army, acting as the left-hand assistant of National Marshal Lin Piaopiao.

When Cang Xueyang married Dongfang Jing, she was just 24 years old, and Lin Piaopiao was their wedding officiant.

Whenever she saw Lin Piaopiao, the little girl would blush and boldly call her Marshal as if shouting a slogan.

Half a month after their wedding, Dongfang Jing followed Lin Piaopiao to the Kunze Mountain Range to rescue injured civilians.

It was thought to be just an ordinary rescue mission, but unexpectedly, the entire group perished there.

That departure became a farewell forever.

Since childhood, Cang Yu had grown up with Divine Hidden Crane, serving as Divine Hidden Crane’s Death Servant. During the Xia Country Era, he was known as the Dragon Guardian.

Back then, when the Super Power User led surviving civilians to migrate to the three continents west of the Black Sea, Cang Yu remained in the Mortal World with the infected members of his clan, staying alongside Divine Hidden Crane.

Cangshan Town was where Cang Yu and his people later settled.

Hence, the siblings were forced to part ways.

After arriving in the Divine Martial Realm, Xu Xingguang specifically researched Cang Xueyang’s life and learned that when Dongfang Jing passed away, Cang Xueyang was carrying his posthumous child.

Later on, Cang Xueyang and Dongfang Jing’s child became the clan leader of the Dongfang Family.

Nowadays, of the four Ancient Martial Families, only the Dongfang Family remains.

Xu Xingguang got up and walked to the viewing balcony extending from the stilt house, seeing in one of the valleys of the Kenda Mountain Range, a large square was built, with Cang Xueyang’s stone statue standing at its center.

Cruz followed her out, standing straight beside Xu Xingguang.

Gazing down at the statue in the valley, she said, “That is our clan’s great benefactor, Cang Xueyang.”

To be honest, the stone statue doesn’t look much like Cang Xueyang.

But it doesn’t matter; the Green Blood People revere General Cang Xueyang, who saved them from destruction. Whether the statue resembles her or not doesn’t hinder their love and veneration for her.

Xu Xingguang nodded with a smile, saying, “She looks like a great hero.”

“She is a true hero.” Cruz gazed at the statue with admiration in her eyes, saying, “I want to become a hero like her.”

“Over there.” Cruz pointed to a hill on the northwest side, introducing, “That’s Milo Town. Yesterday morning, a little girl on her way to our town’s school almost got assaulted by a criminal. Luckily, a brave warrior returning from hunting came across it, otherwise…”

Cruz’s face turned cold, and she pronounced each word with gritted teeth, “First assault then murder; that is the criminal’s modus operandi.”

Xu Xingguang’s eyes also reflected a chilling coldness.
