Ansheng knew clearly that it was useless to beg for mercy when facing a person like Yuan Ji.
"Don't you overestimate your status in the clan?"
Yuan Ji chuckled, "Besides, it's as if our Yan tribe is afraid of you!"
"If you want to start a war with us, the Yan Clan, your clan leader, do they... dare?"
"Okay, since I have nothing to say, I will send you on your way."
After saying that, Yuan Ji easily dealt with Ansheng and Anyang.
After seeing this, Ye Shitian and Han Fangqing stepped forward and clasped their fists.
"Thank you, senior, for saving your life."
Ye Shitian and Han Fangqing spoke together.
"senior?"
Yuan Ji said disapprovingly: "Don't call me senior, okay?
It’s like I’m very old.”
As he said that, Yuan Ji shook his hair.
Ye Shitian looked at him in confusion. Yuan Ji's appearance was completely inconsistent with the domineering power he showed.
"Thank you, Brother Yuan."
Han Fangqing said with a smile.
"Well, that's right."
Yuan Ji was very satisfied with Han Fangqing's title.
"Yuan...Brother Yuan."
Ye Shitian said unnaturally.
Yuan Ji nodded.
"Brother Yuan, I want to ask, are those two people from the Dark Clan?
What kind of race is this Dark Tribe?”
Han Fangqing asked immediately.
Ye Shitian also listened carefully.
"This dark tribe should be very unfamiliar to you."
Yuan Ji thought for a while and continued: "Actually, you don't know us, the guardians of the Yan clan."
Ye Shitian and Han Fangqing both nodded. This was the first time they had heard of this title.
"What should I tell you?"
Yuan Ji touched his chin with his hand and said: "The Xia Kingdom has been famous for five thousand years. In your opinion, when was the most prosperous period?"
Ye Shitian's face changed slightly, are you testing my history?
"This..." Ye Shitian thought for a moment and said, "Anyway, as time goes by, martial arts is becoming more and more in decline."
"It must be that the further the era goes, the weaker the technological energy is, while the martial arts become more prosperous."
"The period when martial arts was at its peak was, of course, the legendary era of Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors."
"The descriptions of martial arts at that time were really terrifying, such as Pangu creating the world, Nuwa creating humans..."
When he said this, Ye Shitian's body trembled, and a look of disbelief appeared in his eyes.
The people of Xia Kingdom have always been called the descendants of Yan and Huang, and the Yanhuang here refers to the legendary Emperor Yan...
"Do you think this is just a legend?"
Yuan Ji said in a deep voice: "In this era, the five thousand years of civilization began when Emperor Yan appeared."
Ye Shitian was horrified in his heart, and Han Fangqing's face was also filled with shock.
From the beginning to the end, in the education they received, when Emperor Yan was mentioned, they were summarized in myths and legends.
Because the history of that era has not been studied in detail.
One view that most people accept today is that Emperor Yan originated from two tribal leaders in the Yellow River Basin, and civilization originated at this time.
Writing had not yet been produced at that time, and their deeds were passed down by word of mouth, gradually turning them into myths.
As a result, there are various myths and legends.
This is also the reason why their deeds are legendary.
"You mean, those myths and legends are true?"
Ye Shitian looked at Yuan Ji and asked in shock.
"Of course not all myths and legends are true."
Yuan Ji shook his head and said: "Many things have been mythical. In mythology, they are not human at all, they are simply gods."
"But some people really existed."
"Yellow Emperor and Yan Emperor are the tribal leaders with whom we have had the most contact in the past. They are also martial arts masters."
"Not only the Yellow Emperor and the Yan Emperor, but also Chi You also existed."
"Chi You was also an outstanding warrior and leader. Chi You led an army to fight against Huang Di's army. You also know the final result."
"Chi You died and his team fell apart. Although he failed, the tribe he led did not perish."
"The Yellow Emperor couldn't bear to exterminate the tribes, so he began to restrain those tribes."
After hearing these words, Ye Shitian frowned, "You won't tell me that the Dark Tribe are the descendants of those tribes?"
"That's right"
Yuan Ji nodded, "We, the Yanhuang Guardians, belong to the lineage of the Yellow Emperor and the Yan tribe, while the Dark tribe and other races belong to the Chiyou lineage."
"After so many years, many races have perished."
Yuan Ji's words subverted Ye Shitian's original understanding.
If it weren't for Yuan Ji, he would definitely not believe that there are still some unknown races in this world.
The history of these races can be traced back to ancient times.
How terrifying is it for a race to have a history of five thousand years?
"How many races are there in the Chi You clan now?"
Ye Shitian asked.
"There are eight more who are very strong."
Yuan Ji continued: "In this era, we collectively call them the Eight Ancient Tribes."
"Secondly, there are only some weaker races left. These small races obey the orders of the eight ancient races."
"These weak races can basically be ignored."
Eight such races?
Ye Shitian took a deep breath.
If these eight races unite together, what a terrifying force they will be?
"Then... you are the only guardian of the Flame Clan who is of your lineage?"
Ye Shitian asked doubtfully.
"besides."
Yuan Ji shook his head and said: "In addition to our Yanhuang lineage, the guardians of the Yan clan, there are two other lines."
"Our three lines unite together to resist the eight ancient tribes."
"But something happened more than 20 years ago, which caused a gap between our three lines."
"Since then, the connection between the three meridians has gradually become less and less, and in recent years, there has even been no connection at all."
"The eight ancient tribes took this opportunity to break away from our control. It can be said that the previous rule restrictions have become increasingly weaker on the eight ancient tribes."
"This is also why people from the dark tribe appear in the secular world."
I see.
Ye Shitian suddenly realized, no wonder he keeps encountering surprisingly strong masters recently.
"When An Yang fought against me for the first time, I was still in the God of War realm. He said there were rules and he couldn't kill me. If I broke through and became a god, he would have no worries. This is allowed by the rules.
?
Are there any other rules?"
Ye Shitian asked.
Since Dark Sun and Dark Life can leave the Dark Clan, people from other races can do the same.
Maybe he would deal with them in the future, so Ye Shitian wanted to know about it in advance.
"The rules are to restrain the eight ancient tribes."
Yuan Ji said with a heavy face: "Actually, as time goes by, martial arts declines more and more, and the rules are constantly changing."
