Chapter 1408 Victory, The Thirty-Six Generals of the Ancient Heavenly Court (2)
The losses of the human race in this war were too great.
Almost half of the army participating in the war had died.
If it was an ordinary war, it would be considered a complete defeat with so many casualties.
But this war had concerned the survival of the human race. Although there were many casualties, they had no way out.
And the final outcome was good.
At least they had saved their home.
"We have to treat their injuries at all costs," Zhou Shu said in a low voice. "I still have some Essence Cleansing Pills. Use them as you please."
"I understand." Mi Ziwen nodded. He turned to look at the heavenly soldiers. "Your Highness, they…"
Mi Ziwen was bewildered.
He didn't know where Zhou Shu had found another army. He was worried that this army would only be an external help like the Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom's army and wouldn't stay with the human race forever.
"They're one of us. With them around, we don't have to worry about the safety of the ancestral land for the time being," Zhou Shu said.
After explaining everything to Mi Ziwen, Zhou Shu walked to Wang E's side.
Although he comforted Mi Ziwen and the others not to worry about these heavenly soldiers, Zhou Shu was still worried.
Previously, the situation had been critical, so Zhou Shu hadn't spoken much with Wang E and had directly gotten them to fight.
He still had to have a talk with Wang E.
Zhou Shu pondered and said, "General Wang."
"Lord, just call me Wang E." The heavenly general of the Fire Palace, Wang E, was tall and almost one head taller than Zhou Shu. He had a bronze face and looked like a fiendcelestial.
But when he spoke, his etiquette was perfect.
"General Wang E…" Zhou Shu hesitated for a moment before asking, "Do you know me?"
"No," Wang E said without hesitation, "But I can feel the proof on you."
"Proof?" Zhou Shu was puzzled.
"Yes." Wang E's tone was solemn. "According to the agreement, the day we see the proof is the day we sinners see the light of day again."
"What proof are you talking about?" Zhou Shu asked. He already had an answer in his heart.
Apart from the Legendary Armament Canon, what else could it be?
Wang E shook his head and didn't answer. Instead, he said in a deep voice, "Lord, according to the agreement between me and Marshal Tianpeng, we will use our lives to wash away our sins.
"Lord, may I ask if we are good enough to eradicate the rebels?!"
Wang E's eyes burned with flames as he looked in the direction of the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom.
Marshal Tianpeng? Eradicate the rebels?
Wang E spoke without rhyme or reason, making Zhou Shu more and more confused.
The one hundred thousand heavenly soldiers led by Wang E are sinners? Did they commit a crime back then?
So they waited underground for so many years just to wait for me? No, they weren't waiting for me. They should be waiting for the Legendary Armament Canon!
The problem is, how did Marshal Tianpeng know that the Legendary Armament Canon would appear? Could the Legendary Armament Canon have something to do with Marshal Tianpeng?
Zhou Shu had countless questions, but he didn't know where to start asking.
He was silent for a moment before asking, "General Wang E, I want to know what happened to the Heavenly Court back then. Why was it destroyed?"
At the root of it all, the origin of everything was how the Ancient Heavenly Court had been destroyed!
If he could figure this out, he might be able to figure out why the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom kept calling the human race remnants of the Heavenly Court and wanted to annex the ancestral land!
"I don't know." There was a hint of pain in Wang E's tone. "I wasn't in the Heavenly Court back then. When I returned, the Heavenly Court had already been destroyed."
"Then, you…" Zhou Shu frowned.
Wang E regained his composure. "When the Heavenly Court needed me the most, I wasn't in the Heavenly Court. I'm guilty. We brothers have persisted for so many years so that one day, we can atone for our sins. "
"You think helping us is atonement?" Zhou Shu couldn't help asking.
"I don't know." Wang E shook his head. "Marshal Tianpeng once told me that when I see you, it would be time for us to redeem ourselves."
"Who is Marshal Tianpeng? Why does he know about me?" Zhou Shu frowned.
"Marshal Tianpeng is the Heavenly Court's Marshal Tianpeng," Wang E said coldly, seeming somewhat distant. "I don't know how he found out, but from the looks of it, he wasn't lying. We will definitely be able to atone for our sins by following you."
Wang E's eyes were full of determination.
"You don't even know who I am and what I want to do. Aren't you afraid that I'll lead you astray?" Zhou Shu asked.
"No. Marshal Tianpeng wouldn't lie to me." Wang E shook his head. "Besides, you won't."
He looked deeply at Zhou Shu.
Zhou Shu felt a little helpless. After asking for a long time, he didn't gain any useful information from Wang E. Should he believe Wang E or not?
"I have another question. The people of the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom keep calling us humans the remnants of the Heavenly Court. Do you know what relationship we humans have with the Heavenly Court?"
Wang E's eyes flashed. "Those from the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom deserve to be killed!"
A visible killing intent rippled from his body, and the surrounding air instantly dropped several degrees.
Who knew how many people Wang E had killed to have such a rich killing intent?!
