“Let’s keep the Boundary Breaking Stone at the Tang Clan for now. You should focus on your training, while I will mobilize forces to find researchers of the Spirit Realm. When you challenge Longzhou, don’t forget to look for clues in this regard. Usually, the information from Qinglou is the most informative, but it shouldn’t hinder you.”

The two young masters, who had lost interest in the auction, finalized the follow-up arrangements for the Boundary Breaking Stone in a back-and-forth manner. Meanwhile, Xu Shuhui, hearing their conversation, absent-mindedly attended the auction and acquired several items.

“Alright, now that we’ve finished with our main business, why don’t you tellabout the Han Family?” asked Tang Luo, leaning back in his chair with a composed expression, directed at Xu elder.

He was genuinely curious about how a robust and reputed household like the Han Family could be erased from existence. After all, each of these martial artists bearing the title of ‘Saint’ was a distinct and remarkable genius of their generation, backed by leading edge realms. While it may be conceiveable for them to be defeated, the notion of their extermination was somewhat hard to believe.

As soon as Xu elder heard Tang Luo mention the Han Family, his normally relaxed demeanor faded, replaced by a solemn frown, as it reminded him of a heavy piece of history.

“Do you know, after all the Holy Ones collectively banished the Demon Race from the mainland, there wasn’t just a single Holy Land in the world.” -You know about the Xu Clan of Yuanzhou, but you have probably never heard of the Han Family of Zhongzhou.”

Tang Luo frowned, nodding his head. Despite his love for history, he had never cacross any snippets regarding the Han Family.

“Back then, several Holy Ones began to share their martial arts writings. However, the idea didn’t initially originate from our Ancestor,” The elder Xu shared a shocking secret with Tang Luo. “In fact, it was Saint Han who united four great sects to implement a plan promoting martial arts, and our Ancestor was the first to respond.”

“Our Ancestor gained significant fonly because those proposing this plan only publicly shared basic techniques and kept their unique skills secret. Only our Ancestor had the courage to inscribe the essence of his lifelong martial arts on the monument of Tiannan!”

“Saint Xu was indeed remarkable,” Tang Luo said admiringly. It’s not easy to serve as a teacher, especially when offering one’s proudest achievements to the world.

In that era, when everyone held tight to their martial arts secrets, such secrets represented the greatest value to a clan. What Saint Xu had done was to fully disclose the secret martial arts he had comprehended to the world.

First cXu, then the sword: all the sword cultivators in the world today derived their initial techniques from Saint Xu’s Sword Dao on the Tiannan Monument.

Furthermore, by sharing the “Analysis of Spiritual Power”, Saint Xu provided the world with a tool to create martial arts techniques. Based on this alone, he rightfully earned the title of ‘Sage Teacher’.”

The elder Xu gladly accepted Tang Luo’s praise for his ancestor, then continued, “Actually, Saint Han was also an extraordinary person!” “After the Demon beasts were expelled, the Human Race remained in chaos, with many martial artists harboring desires for power. They claimed dominion over lands and cities, declaring themselves kings, and enslaving ordinary people. The living conditions of sfrom the Human Race not only did not improve with the departure of the Demon Beasts but instead, plunged into

darker times.”

“Upon seeing this, Saint Han becresolute, determined to overthrow all kings and emperors in the world, granting ordinary people the power to resist! Not only that, he also aspired to establish a world where everyone was equal.” The elder Xu was not just a martial artist, he was a romantic at heart. Every the read this part of history, he would get so excited that his whole body would tense up. It was as if he was transported back to that gloomy period of the Human Race, with himself in the place of Saint Han, brandishing his sword to clear the cloud of despair looming over the people!

However, Tang Luo, observing Elder Xu’s excitement, felt neither joy nor sorrow. Instead, he felt a sense of regret, because he believed that this remarkable Saint Han was undoubtedly on a path to destruction!

As expected, the excitement of Elder Xu did not last long before his face darkened as he said, “After Saint Han and the clans overthrew the reign of emperors and kings, things changed. He proposed the laws of unbiased treatment, equality, and justice in society! This was indeed a beneficial idea, but the clans that had allied with him strongly opposed it. Neither side could convince the other, resulting in a deadlock.”

“The historical records you’ve read state that Saint Han and Yinglong both perished in the Endless Sea, right? Actually, that’s not the case. The campaign against the Endless Sea was a bet those clans placed with Saint Han. If Saint Han could destroy Dragon Island and slay Yinglong all by himself, they would acknowledge his rule over the world and support him.”

“However, when Saint Han, wielding the Slaughter Immortal Dragon Halberd, really invaded Dragon Island in the Endless Sea, those clans conspired to attack the hof the Han Family. They were truly despicable!” Despite being just a piece of history, Elder Xu becfurious every the mentioned it, because those clans and sects were utterly treacherous!

“Well…” Tang Luo touched his chin and faintly said, “Disagreeing means disagreeing. How could they agree just because you destroyed Dragon Island? These clans and sects are not fools. Following one law would cost them too much. This agreement of Dragon Island seems more like a trick to distract the tiger.”

“Yes, how wonderful it would have been if the Saint Han of those days had understood this!” Elder Xu said with a gloomy face. “But he trusted Saint An too much. Perhaps he also thought that this might be a ruse by the clans and sects to let him and Yinglong annihilate each other, but he had absolute confidence in his martial arts skills. Moreover, due to the alliance with the An Clan, his confidence led Saint Han to decide to accept the invitation.”

“Sigh.” Tang Luo sighed. The stories of the world were all too familiar. Elder Xu said sorrowfully, “In the end, Saint Han, wielding his halberd alone, massacred everyone on Dragon Island. But when he returned to the mainland of Zhongzhou, carrying the horns of Yinglong, he was greeted by seven murderous King Realm powerhouses.”

“The fall of Saint Han was due to the treachery of the men who had followed him for hundreds of years!”

Heroes, who are never hurt by fierce beasts or enemies, are often betrayed by those they trust and meet a tragic end.

The bonds of brotherhood formed over hundreds of years often diverge due to conflicts of interest. Perhaps from the moment Saint Han started preaching equality for all, those sects and clans who followed him had already developed divergent interests. It can be said that hatred is as unpredictable as water, causing ripples even in calm situations.

Tang Luo of course understood why Elder Xu was sad, but he knew that the Han Family must not have been eliminated, or else, where did Fang Han cfrom, and who gave birth to Fang Han? Although the history of the Han Family was lamentable, they still needed to understand the other side’s strength! indeed, after recounting the fall of Saint Han, Elder Xu’s eyes shone with a strange light, and he said, “Fortunately, Heaven has eyes. The Han Family’s sword formation was unparalleled in the world. The Slaughter Immortal Army guarded sof the direct descendants of the Han Family, helping them to escape from Zhongzhou and go into hiding!

He could hardly imagine how heroic the ancestors of the Han Family must have been to preserve the Han Family’s lineage under the joint attack of so many powerful clans.

During their conversation, the final auction item of the day, the Life-prolonging Golden Ginseng, was sold by Xiao Zheng. Thus, the first day of the auction cto an end..
