Qian Li explained everything to Ye Xiao that happened a year ago.
In fact, it was not entirely because of him that the Illusory Spirit Gate encountered disaster, but he was definitely the main reason.
Actually, a year ago, a flying ship full of strong people suddenly entered the Land of Morning Stars. And coincidently, their location of landing was not far away from the Illusory Spirit Gate.
These people were from the Red Moon Empire and went astray in the dark void after losing their path.
They came from the Land of Mystic Falls. This Land was extremely big and Great Saint Realm warriors and even Heavenly Saints could be found everywhere in this world.
From this, it could be imagined how powerful this land must be.
And the Red Moon Empire was one of the overlord forces in the Land of Mystic Falls.
For the past dozens of years, a war was being fought between two overlord forces. One of these two forces supported the dark side while the other one was a righteous force.
But the righteous force was losing the war slowly, so they had no choice but to look for a partner who could help them.
It was at that time, the righteous force send a request to Red Moon Empress for help. The Red Moon Empress could not see the righteous force being destroyed so she personally participated in the battle. It took them a few years of a fierce battle to finally win the war after sacrificing countless lives. [Ref. Ch 43]
However, during the war, Red Moon Empire and the other righteous force called Nine Lotus Palace have been weakened greatly. If not for the Palace Leader of Nine Lotus Palace and Red Moon Empress still being alive, these two forces would have definitely been attacked by other forces.
Because they were greatly weakened, they decided to send their people to other lands with rich resources so that they could obtain those resources and stabilize their strength as soon as possible.
The Flying Ship that descended in the Land of Morning Stars was one of the few groups sent by the Red Moon Empire. They were supposed to go to the Land of Frozen Spring, however, they lost their path because of a group of Heavenly Demons wandering in the void and ended up in the Land of Morning Stars.
When they arrived at this Land, they chose to not leave immediately. Instead, they chose to rest for a while before leaving for their destination.
It was during that time when a man who seemed to be only in his late twenties come to know about Ling Xiaolong from the mouth of people.
Well, although this man looked to be only in his late twenties, he was in fact hundreds of years old already. And he was also a Heavenly Saint.
When he learned about Ling Xiaolong and heard endless praises for him from the people outside, he decided to visit the Illusory Spirit Gate to see what kind of blessed person this Ling Xiaolong truly is.
However, it was then he come to know that Ling Xiaolong seemed to have disappeared completely from the Land of Morning Stars.
Because Ling Xiaolong was constantly being praised by all the people, and it seems as if these people had already started worshipping him, a crazy idea appeared in that man's mind.
He once again went to the Illusory Spirit Gate and asked a few questions first.
Will Ling Xiaolong take revenge on the people who try to destroy the Illusory Spirit Gate?
Will Ling Xiaolong take revenge even if he has to go to a different Land and look for the culprit who destroyed his family and force?
What will Ling Xiaolong do if his parents were killed? Will he try to destroy the culprit's family as well?
And of course, the Illusory Spirit Gate's answer was positive. The answer was, Ling Xiaolong will definitely take revenge no matter how long it takes.
At that time, Ling Wei Long, Ling Xiaolong's grandfather, only thought that the man was asking these questions just to learn about Ling Xiaolong's character.
However, he did not expect the man to start laughing crazily and suddenly attacked the Illusory Spirit Gate.
Although Ling Wei Long was the strongest man in the Land of Morning Stars, he was only a Great Saint. How could he be a match for a Heavenly Saint?
In a short while, more than half of the Illusory Spirit Gate was destroyed and Ling Cheng, Ling Xiaolong's father, happened to suffer a soul injury that instantly put him near death situation.
The Illusory Spirit Gate was a force controlled by four families. These four families were Ling Family, the Xu Family, the Zhu Family, and the Lu Family.
Every family suffered greatly and the Xu Family was almost wiped out completely. Only a few people including only five elders were left in the Xu Family.
Thousands of inner and core disciples also died.
Everything happened too suddenly.
That man had the intention of destroying the entire Illusory Spirit Gate so that Ling Xiaolong will go to the Land of Mystic Falls and look for him in the Red Moon Empire. His wish was to fight Ling Xiaolong and kill him.
As for why he wanted to kill Ling Xiaolong suddenly, it was a mystery. Only that man knows this.
Fortunately, the most mysterious elder in the Illusory Spirit Gate, Elder Mo, appeared in time to stop that Heavenly Saint. It turned out that Elder Mo was extremely powerful and had been hiding in the Illusory Spirit Gate for thousands of years.
Elder Mo's existence was not a secret to anyone. Everyone knew that Elder Mo was a mysterious man who suddenly appeared in the era of Ling Wei Long's grandfather and has been living in the Illusory Spirit Gate since then.
Elder Mo was mainly known for his ability to see through one's heart, calculate one's fate, predict one's destiny, and change one's future. [Ref. Ch 4]
It was also Elder Mo who told Ling Wei Long and others about Ling Xiaolong possessing nine special abilities. As for what those abilities were, Elder Mo did not explain and only told everyone that he could not calculate the abilities, and it might be because these abilities were bestowed by the Morning Stars.
But Elder Mo did calculate Ye Xiao's devouring ability could devour anything that has energy, anything, and everything.
If not for Elder Mo who suddenly appeared and heavily injured that Heavenly Saint with a single punch, that man would have completely destroyed the Illusory Spirit Gate.
That man was shocked when Elder Mo appeared and started running away.
Elder Mo did not chase after him and only said that the death of Heavenly Saint has already been fixed the moment he thought of touching the Illusory Spirit Gate. Ling Xiaolong will definitely go and kill that person.
Not long after the man escaped, all the foreign people left the Land of Morning Stars.
Before leaving, that Heavenly Saint sent a message to the Illusory Spirit Gate. He said that if the Illusory Spirit Gate really wants revenge, then send Ling Xiaolong to the Land of Mystic Falls and look for him, Zhao Yan, in the Red Moon Empire.
When this message came, everyone was confused and did not know what exactly that man wants. Why did he leave behind his name and address? It was then Elder Mo once again calculated something and said that Zhao Yan once had an opportunity in a relic left behind by an Abyssal.
From the relic of that Abyssal, he obtained a secret technique that could extract the blessing of a Land and fuse it to another person.
According to Elder Mo, Zhao Yan has targeted Ling Xiaolong because of his incredible blessings. He wants to extract those blessings and take them for his son.
It was no wonder why Zhao Yan suddenly went crazy.
A month later, Elder Mo also left the Land of Morning Stars. He said that, because he has exposed his strength, his time in the Land of Morning Stars has ended. He should leave the Land of Morning Stars as soon as possible. Otherwise, the entire Land of Morning Stars will encounter a calamity that might result in this Land's destruction.
No one knows why Elder Mo said this, but this was the truth.
Before leaving, he calculated something and announced that Ling Xiaolong will be back within two years. So, Ling Wei Long and others need not worry.
As long as Ling Xiaolong comes back, he will bring a huge wave of fortune along. At that time, not only the Illusory Spirit Gate will regain its former glory, but might even surpass it.
Although it sounded more like consoling everyone in the Illusory Spirit Gate, everyone still chose to believe him.
After all, Elder Mo was a mysterious figure. And Ling Xiaolong was a person with several blessings and an amazing talent that surpassed all the talents in the Land of Morning Stars.
