Chapter 5195

Hu Mazi finally came to his senses, swallowed hard, and quickly followed Kai’s steps.

Youyue looked at the backs of the two people, her eyes flickered a few times, and she hurriedly followed them.

Crossing the wide square, the three entered the towering black palace.

The interior of the hall is even more magnificent than it looks from the outside. The dome is dozens of feet high, carved with countless hideous magic patterns, and emits a faint fluorescence.

On both sides stood huge black stone pillars, with lifelike dragon statues wrapped around the pillars, as if they would come alive at any time.

At the end of the hall is a tall throne, carved from a whole piece of obsidian and inlaid with countless gems, exuding a luxurious and cold atmosphere.

Youyue asked Kai and Hu Mazi to sit on the stone chairs on both sides of the hall, and then clapped her hands.

Soon, two demon women dressed in maid’s clothes came in with tea. They lowered their heads, placed the teacups on the stone table in front of the three people, and then quickly retreated, not daring to look up at Kai from beginning to end.

“Please wait a moment, I have asked someone to look up the ancient books in the Demon Palace.”

Youyue picked up the teacup and took a sip. “The history of Jiupan Mountain may be recorded in the ancient books of the Demon Palace.”

Kai picked up the teacup, took a look at the dark green tea in it, frowned slightly, and did not drink it.

This tea gave off a faint fishy smell and was obviously not prepared for the human race.

Hu Mazi also imitated Kai, just holding the teacup, but looking around the hall with a complicated emotion in his eyes.

This was once the ancestral land of his Hu family, but now it has become the palace of the demons. Everything has changed and the people have changed, which makes him feel deeply moved.

The hall fell silent for a moment. Only the fluorescent light emitted by the magic pattern on the dome occasionally flickered and reflected on the faces of the three people. The atmosphere seemed a little subtle.

Kai closed his eyes, seemingly resting, but in fact he was secretly operating his spiritual sense to investigate the situation of the entire palace.

This Black Demon Palace is even larger than he had imagined. Its internal structure is intricate and he can faintly sense dozens of powerful auras, some of which are as powerful as Youyue or even stronger than her.

It seems that the water in the Black Demon Palace is much deeper than imagined.

After an unknown amount of time, an old man in a gray robe walked in quickly, holding a yellowed ancient book in his hand. He walked in front of Youyue and bowed, “Witch, I have checked all the records about Jiupan Mountain and found some information about the Hu family.”

Hu Mazi stood up suddenly and looked at the old man excitedly: “How is it? Is there any record? What happened to my Hu family?”

The old man glanced at Hu Mazi, then at Youyue. Seeing Youyue nod, he slowly spoke, “According to ancient records, there is indeed a Hu family living in Jiupan Mountain. They were a famous talisman family in the Fourth Heaven at that time. There were several talisman masters in the family. During their heyday, there was even a fourth-grade cultivator in the Earthly Immortal Realm.”

“What happened next?” Hu Mazi asked, his voice trembling with excitement.

The old man sighed and continued, “About 2,800 years ago, the Hu family was suddenly attacked by an unknown force. The entire mountain range was razed to the ground, and almost all the disciples in the family were wiped out. Only a few people managed to escape and have since disappeared.

As for who the attackers were, there is no detailed record in the ancient books. It only says that they were a group of powerful men in black, and their methods were extremely cruel. ”

“What?” Hu Mazi stumbled back as if struck by lightning, his face completely pale. “The Hu family was exterminated? My Hu family… was exterminated?”

His eyes were filled with pain and disbelief, his hands were clenched tightly into fists, his nails dug deep into his palms, blood dripped down from his fingers. Although he had been mentally prepared, he still couldn’t accept the news when he heard it in person.
