Honghuang: The Golden Crow Emperor, starts by robbing the Three Pure Ones

Chapter 1000 Suspected Protagonist
"In that case, how is the great calamity now?" Ling Xiao asked.

"do not know."

The illusory female figure shook her head and sighed, "When I fell, the great war was still raging."

"However, since this world has not been completely destroyed, either we have won, or the great calamity is still at a stalemate."

"Ugh."

Ling Xiao shook his head slightly and sighed helplessly.

Without a doubt, he couldn't get much information from the remnant soul in front of him.

While the two sides were discussing the matter, Xiao Mutou, Zhang Yan, and several other humans gathered together.

"Little Wood, who is that woman? How did she float out of you?"

"This……"

Little Wood opened his mouth as if to speak, but remembering the vow he had made, he said, "I cannot speak."

"What's wrong with not saying this?" Zhang Yan interrupted his companion, who was about to ask further questions, by clapping his hands.

"Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask!"

"Ok."

The man immediately looked aggrieved, but Zhang Yan understood that there was a way to die in this wilderness called "You know too much".

"This kid can kill a unicorn leopard with a single blow, the female ghost must be incredibly powerful too." Zhang Yan quickly lowered his head, not daring to speak.

At this moment, Ling Xiao had reached a preliminary understanding with Xuan Le.

"Thank you very much."

Ling Xiao flicked his finger, and a stream of light flew out, then merged into Xuan Le's body.

The next moment, Xuan Le's swaying, seemingly about to dissipate soul body solidified a bit.

"Thank you, fellow Taoist!"

Xuan Le spoke gratefully, his soul was too weak, and even recalling memories was extremely difficult.

"Go to sleep. When you recover, I still have some questions to ask you."

"it is good."

Xuan Le nodded, then floated back into the jade pendant in the little wooden doll's body.

"Hum..."

Ling Xiao stroked his chin and said, "Little guy, you must have a tribe, right? Take me to your tribe."

"Yes."

Zhang Yan agreed on behalf of Xiao Mutou and said, "Senior, may I ask what brings you to our tribe?"

"Just wandering around."

Ling Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at the humans in front of him, before settling on the little wooden figure.

“Little guy, your aptitude seems quite good, it’s just a pity…” Ling Xiao paused, “It seems you’ve suffered some damage, and someone forcibly removed something from you, am I right?”

"Yes!"

Little Wood nodded, his expression somber, and said, "I heard from the clan chief that when I was still a baby, someone seemed to have extracted my bloodline..."

Could it be that you really are the chosen one of this world...? Ling Xiao chuckled and said, "Let's go, to your village."

"it is good."

Zhang Yan agreed, then nodded with a forced smile.

A short while later, the group headed east and soon arrived at a village built against the mountain.

Ling Xiao glanced around and roughly sensed that there were about a thousand people in the village, and the strongest among them was an old man in the early stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm.

"Are you back?"

As soon as the group arrived at the entrance of the village, the old man at the Spirit Transformation Realm came out.

"What's the situation outside the village? What have you discovered?"

Recently, ferocious beasts have been frequently seen rushing around the village. Fortunately, these beasts have no interest in the village and just pass by quickly.

But there are too many!

Among them was even a beast king at the Spirit Pattern Realm!
The slightest misstep could have leveled the entire village. "Chieftain, we didn't find anything, and we were even chased by a unicorn leopard. Luckily, this senior saved our lives."

Zhang Yan quickly spoke up.

"Who is this?"

At this moment, the old clan chief also noticed Ling Xiao and asked with narrowed eyes.

He was somewhat curious about the identity of the person in front of him.

"Only at the Cave Heaven Realm, he looks quite ordinary. He must have fled from another tribe..." Just as the old man was wondering, Zhang Yan hurriedly came over and whispered the story in his ear.

The old man's face immediately showed a look of horror.

After a moment, the clan chief swallowed hard and bowed respectfully: "Greetings, senior. May I ask what brings you to our Zhang Village?"

"Just taking a stroll."

Ling Xiao smiled and said, then pointed to the little wooden figure beside him, "By the way, what's the situation with this kid? Tell me about it."

"This……"

The clan chief sighed and said, "Then please come with me."

"it is good!"

Ling Xiao nodded slightly. He followed the clan chief to a simple stone house.

“This child has a hard life. Although he lives in our Zhangjia Village, he was not originally surnamed Zhang.”

"What?" Little Wood himself showed a hint of surprise!
"good."

The old clan chief nodded. "His mother was from our Zhangjia Village. Due to some coincidences, she married a big shot as a concubine and eventually gave birth to him."

"That important figure comes from the Li family and has cultivated to the Array Formation Realm. It is said that there is also a Venerable Realm expert in the family."

"I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing. Little Wood is naturally gifted and has inherited a physique called the Ancient Divine Body."

"But with no one to back him up, his half-brother then drained his divine blood to empower him. If he hadn't been lucky, he probably would have died."

"No wonder."

Ling Xiao nodded slightly, thinking that his judgment was indeed correct.

"What about my mother?"

Little Wood seemed to be hearing about his background for the first time, and immediately asked more questions.

"She, she..."

The old clan chief opened his mouth, unsure of what to say. But since the little wooden boy in front of him already knew, he finally spoke, "She left, paying a great price to bring you back to the village."

"mother……"

The little wooden boy's face turned ashen, his eyes turned bloodshot, and he burst into tears.

Ling Xiao sat quietly to the side, watching without saying a word.

A moment later, the little wooden thing collapsed to the ground.

The old clan chief was about to stand up and pick up the little wooden figure.

"and many more."

"Senior, what would you like to say?"

"I'd like to take this young one as my apprentice, what do you think?"

Ling Xiao stroked his chin and spoke.

You must know that Lingxiao doesn't accept disciples casually; he always has to be selective!

But this kid in front of me contains elements such as "fallen genius", "divine blood extracted", and "Jade Pendant Teacher".

Moreover, Ling Xiao noticed that the divine blood in the boy's body seemed to be reviving little by little, and one day, it might even have the opportunity to break through and rebuild!
"If this isn't the chosen one, I'll eat it!"

Even without the abilities of the three Chaos Demon Gods—Destiny, Fate, and Cause and Effect—Ling Xiao could still see that this young man was surrounded by a vast aura of fortune, like the seed of a towering tree.

"really?"

The old clan chief's eyes widened, revealing a mixture of disbelief and surprise.
