"What do you want me to do? Right now, I am only a practitioner who is about to step into the astral plane. Even if I wanted to do something for this continent, you should also be clear about one thing.

Chu Mubai sighed deeply, he shook his head and replied helplessly.

He was not wrong. Saving the world was not something that could be done just because he wanted to, nor was it something that could be done by a passing hero. After careful consideration, how could the current him give an answer?

"But you are also very clear that the only person who can lead the human race to resist is you. Back then, you and your four brothers were the only ones who survived. In other words, the power that could enter the Emperor Realm back then had broken through the shackles of the continent, resulting in no one being inferior to the Emperor Realm. Don't you think you should be responsible for such a thing? Having a dignified Devouring Astral Souls, shouldn't you make a corresponding contribution to the Star Pavilion and the continent? There's one more thing you should be clear of, those relatives and clan members of Chu Region who died in the chaos of Shen Wu Dynasty because of your impulsiveness, they were all sealed in another part of the vast starry sky by you, but if you want to revive, you need to get the permission of my Star Pavilion, otherwise, everything would just be nonsense! "These are the conditions for me to talk to you!"

The old man squinted his eyes, staring straight at Chu Mubai, his face full of confidence, as though he was grabbing onto the latter's tail.

In the beginning, Chu Mubai had no interest whatsoever in the old man's words. To him, any sort of enticement or threat was of no substance to him. However, the old man's last sentence not only shocked him, it had also truly tempted him.

Family love, to Chu Mubai, was an irresistible temptation!

Very few people knew about this matter, and even his closest friends and brothers did not know that he left behind a backup plan when he decided to do it!

Thus, when the old man said these words, not only was he extremely shocked, he also chose to believe that the Star Pavilion had the ability to help him accomplish it. Otherwise, he wouldn't have known about this matter.

Chu Mubai would never do something without any confidence in himself, if he truly felt that there was no way out, then either way, he would succeed in this matter, or fail.

Although Chu Region had been destroyed on the surface, it was just an illusion on the surface. Of course, there was a price to be paid for this illusion!

If he, Chu Mubai, was able to get the position of the number one person in the Shen Wu Dynasty, and become the youngest Starlord Grand Sage, just by relying on his super combat ability and talent, it was far from enough.

Among them were massacres, bloodshed and death … Wait a minute.

Along the way, Chu Mubai had also offended countless experts and countless of powerhouses, but because of Chu Mubai's powerful abilities and background, they were afraid of not making a move, but if he decided to do that thing and go to the Star Pavilion to resist, then those enemies who were ready to make their move would definitely not sit and watch the show, and might not be able to do anything.

So he had to arrange a path of retreat for his family, which was the Chu Region!

As long as Chu Mubai left the continent, no matter where he hid the Chu Region, it would definitely be discovered by someone who had ulterior motives, so the best way would be to kill everyone in the Chu Region!

Only those who were dead would not attract attention, and only those who were dead would not be chased by others.

The facts proved that Chu Mubai's guess was right, and his way of doing things had indeed saved the lives of everyone in the Chu Region.

Before he had left back then, he had not hesitated to exhaust one of his divine artifacts and laid down a grand Heaven Opening Formation, the Soul Devouring Formation. He sealed the souls of all the people of the Chu Region into a pool of blood and used his supreme power of the Devouring Astral Souls to perfectly conceal his aura.

It was extremely difficult to achieve such an incredible feat, and at least thirty thousand years ago, in the entire Shen Wu Dynasty, the only person who could do so was Chu Mubai.

The suppression of the soul meant that everyone would enter the state of a zombie. In order to disguise themselves more perfectly, he had specially maintained everyone's state of mind for nearly a month.

This was also for the matter of Chu Mubai leaving the continent thirty thousand years ago. The event of him challenging the Star Pavilion would be the talk of the town, and practically everyone in the empire would know about it.

What he wanted to do was let everyone know about this!

This was because a thought could only last for a month. Once a month passed, when the Chu Region's body fell, everything he had done would be for naught, and the sealed souls would definitely be found.

The best method was to have his enemies kill all of his clansmen within the span of a month, and also make the matter of the Chu Region's destruction known to the world!

If the Chu Region were to be annihilated in the eyes of the people, then his family would also receive a cupped fist salute.

The destruction of the physical body didn't mean anything. As long as the soul didn't die, it could use many methods to revive its loved ones. After all, creating a physical body on this continent wasn't anything strange.

However, other than him, no one else knew about this. For the sake of a thorough plan, he had made too many preparations. It could be said that no one would know about this.

However, the old man in front of him was able to know about this matter so easily. He was obviously not a simple person!

He was even thinking about what other unspeakable secrets were hidden in this matter.

Was it because back when he was on the continent, these matters had already been exposed? It was also because 30,000 years ago, when he was preparing to start implementing these plans, he had already been targeted by the people from the Star Pavilion.

This was something that could not be determined with certainty, and no one could give an accurate answer.

However, since the paper could not contain the fire, his only choice was to cooperate with it.

After all, this was not a small matter. When one's soul was sealed, it would be extremely weak. Although he had set up a sealing technique that reached the sky thirty thousand years ago, after being cleansed over such a long period of time, those seals would likely not be as strong as they were at the start.

He could not use this unknown seal to gamble, much less the fact that he was betting on the lives of all his relatives in the Chu Region.

Moreover, the things that he, Chu Mubai, had done back then could be said to be a calamity for Star Pavilion. However, when the Star Pavilion found out about this, they did not choose to kill his family to vent their anger, but chose to cooperate with him on this matter.

But just this point was enough to prove the Star Pavilion's sincerity in cooperating.

This kind of sincerity could indeed be tried once!

Thinking about that, Chu Mubai looked at the old man in front of him with narrowed eyes. After sighing deeply, he slowly spoke: "I agree to cooperate with you all, but I need to clear up a few things. After all, you know very well, whether it is the barbarians or the Astral Souls s that rule, it is definitely not as simple as you think. Furthermore, the deal that you have made with me is not something that can be completed in a few years' time. It can be considered a very long journey.

"Alright, feel free to ask any questions you have. This old man will answer anything he knows!"

After the old man confirmed Chu Mubai's agreement, he stroked his beard and laughed.

Chu Mubai seemed to heave a deep sigh, he still had a heavy expression on his face. Indeed, although making such a decision seemed easy, it was actually too heavy for him.

This meant that what he would be carrying in the future would be a true heavy responsibility!

But he was, after all, the youngest Starlord Grand Sage of thirty thousand years ago. He was not a person who had never seen the world, and quickly recovered his composure, calming himself down, and then slowly opened his mouth and asked: "First of all, I want to know your identity, you are not a member of the Star Pavilion, so what kind of connection do you have with the Star Pavilion? I believe that passing this matter to you to tell me is not that simple!"

After Chu Mubai finished speaking, he squinted as he looked at the old man, his deep eyes releasing an overbearing light, as though he wanted to dig a meter in between.

The old man seemed to have already expected this question from Chu Mubai, so he answered without hesitation: "Looks like you've already guessed it a little. I'm the emissary that the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors arranged for me to go to the Star Pavilion to negotiate during the great battle between the human race and my clan. When I left that year, I never returned as well. Back then, since I was the messenger of the human race, allowing the human race to cooperate with the Star Pavilion, then as the messenger of the Star Pavilion, I hope to cooperate with you. "

After the old man finished speaking, he stroked his beard and laughed as he looked at Chu Mubai without saying a word. He was very clear on this, and gave enough explanation.

After Chu Mubai heard this, he nodded his head and did not say anything else. In truth, this had been his speculation all along, but now it had just been confirmed.

Then, he calmed his breath and asked again, "So, I want to know more about the barbarians. I think that the barbarian race's invasion should be related to the master Astral Souls. If I'm not wrong, your Star Pavilion must have planned a series of things or a mission for me."

Chu Mubai was very clear about the issue of cooperation. After all, the him from thirty thousand years ago looked down on everyone from his position of power, and had countless of prideful attitudes when dealing with warriors weaker than him.

Trade was just a good phrase on the surface, but what they really wanted was a series of quests.

Even though Chu Mubai hated being manipulated by others the most, when his own fate was under the control of others, he hated it, but he could do nothing about it. After all, the entire Chu Region was in the hands of the Star Pavilion.
