Because in this way, Ren Duxing was essentially the Domination of the ruins!

Ren Duxing laughed and said, "Any other questions?"

Qin Feiyang said, "Of course. Why can't you leave here?"

"It's also because of the power source."

Ren Duxing sighed deeply and said helplessly, "Once the power source is mastered, one cannot leave the ruins. The only way is to destroy the power source."

Qin Feiyang said, "Then why not just destroy it and be done with it?"

"It cannot be destroyed." Ren Duxing said, "You would have noticed that this large canyon is filled with remnants from ten thousand years ago."

Qin Feiyang nodded.

Ren Duxing said, "But what you don't know is that in addition to the Sacred Monkey, there are three other mythical creatures."

"What?" Qin Feiyang exclaimed. "There are three other mythical creatures?" He was shocked.

"Yes," Ren Duxing said. "The jungle, desert, glacier, and sea of fire—these four regions each have a mythical creature sealed within, and beasts like the Monkey King are guarding them."

"I understand," Qin Feiyang said. "If the power source is destroyed, the black storm and the gravity will disappear. At that time, once these mythical creatures awaken, Spirit State will face an unprecedented disaster."

"Yes," Ren Duxing nodded. "As long as the black storm and gravity exist, even if they awaken, they cannot leave this canyon."

Qin Feiyang looked at Ren Duxing with a complex expression and sighed, "So it turns out that you, Uncle Ren, have been protecting the Spirit State all this time. You've really had a hard time."

Ren Duxing laughed and said, "As long as the people of Spirit State are safe, I don't mind a little hardship."

"But have you ever thought about how Shuang'er feels?" Qin Feiyang said angrily. "Since you knew she came to the ruins to find you, you should have met her and told her the truth. More than twenty years! She has been in the ruins looking for you for more than twenty years. Do you know how hard she's had it? Do you know how desperate she is to see you? As a father, how could you bear this?"

Initially, he wouldn't have been this angry, but thinking about Ren Wushuang's experiences, he thought of the Emperor. Inside, a nameless rage could not help but erupt.

Ren Duxing fell silent, his eyes filled with self-reproach.

"Actually, I can understand that you, Uncle Ren, don't want to worry Shuang'er," Qin Feiyang sighed. "Because once she knows the truth, she will definitely stay with you and would rather die than leave. But you should at least let her know you're safe, so she doesn't have to look for you everywhere, worrying for you."

Ren Duxing sighed softly and said, "When you go back, apologize to Shuang'er for me. Tell her that I, as a father, failed in my duties and am unworthy of her."

Qin Feiyang was silent for a moment, then nodded, "I will tell her that you are alive, but for the apology, you should say it yourself!"

Ren Duxing gave a bitter smile. "You also have quite the story, don't you?"

Qin Feiyang shook his head and laughed, quickly changing the subject. "What story could I have? So these four mythical creatures existed ten thousand years ago?"

Ren Duxing nodded.

Qin Feiyang said, "You came to the ruins to search for them?"

Ren Duxing said, "Yes, and no."

"What does that mean?" Qin Feiyang was baffled.

Ren Duxing said, "I came to the ruins to search for an inheritance, and it is the inheritance of the master of these four mythical creatures."

"They have a master?" Qin Feiyang said in surprise.

Ren Duxing said, "Their master is very powerful. I've successfully received the master's inheritance. That's also the reason why they haven't killed me."

Qin Feiyang looked at him with surprise and asked, "Who is their master?"

"This..." Ren Duxing hesitated for a moment, then said, "Since you and their master are connected somehow, there's no harm in telling you."

"How could I have anything to do with him?" Qin Feiyang was puzzled.

"Your connection to him is not shallow at all, and sooner or later, this person will come to see you," Ren Duxing said. "Because the rib bone you possess belongs to him."

"What?" Qin Feiyang almost leaped in surprise.

The owner of the rib bone was the master of these four mythical creatures? Wasn't this too bizarre?

Ren Duxing said, "When I first saw you bring out the rib bone, I was a little surprised. But after my probing, it indeed belonged to him. Tell me, where did you get the rib bone from?"

Qin Feiyang said, "In a canyon in the Desert of Death. But when I went back later, the canyon had disappeared. I couldn't find it."

"It disappeared?" Ren Duxing frowned, but suddenly, his face drastically changed.

"What's wrong?" Qin Feiyang was startled as well.

Ren Duxing said solemnly, "The canyon couldn't have disappeared on its own. The only explanation is that this person has awakened."

"Impossible!" Qin Feiyang firmly stated. "Because when I found him, there was nothing left but a White Bone!"

"Sigh!" Ren Duxing said. "Feiyang, you don't know how powerful he was. I'm telling you, as long as his Divine Sense does not perish, he will not die because he is a War God!"

"War God!" Qin Feiyang felt as if struck by lightning, shaking to his core.

These two words, "War God," were practically a nebulous legend in the current age.

"Since we're on the topic, let me tell you another earth-shattering secret," Ren Duxing said. "As far as I know, this man is named Mu Tianyang, and he is known as the Sun War God."

"Mu Tianyang! Sun War God!" Hearing this name, Qin Feiyang's heart was once again thrown into turmoil.

Because the name Mu Tianyang was not unfamiliar to him! The title of Sun War God was even more renowned, thundering in his ears! Because Mu Tianyang was the founding ancestor of the Sun Empire! The Sun Empire was the precursor to the Great Qin Empire. In short, ten thousand years ago, the Sun Empire ruled this land! However, according to historical records, Mu Tianyang was extremely brutal, and his methods were very bloody, incurring both divine wrath and popular indignation. Later, the first Emperor emerged, quickly rose to power, overthrew the Sun Empire, and established the Great Qin Empire. As for how he overthrew it, historical records only mention it in passing, but one could imagine the process must have been incredibly arduous. However, the historical records clearly state that Mu Tianyang ultimately died in battle! So, Qin Feiyang found it hard to accept that Mu Tianyang was still alive.

Ren Duxing did not know what Qin Feiyang was thinking, nor that Qin Feiyang knew about these things, so he began to explain.

Qin Feiyang did not stop him, allowing Ren Duxing to continue speaking.

As a result, the situation Ren Duxing described was generally the same as what he understood.

After a while, Ren Duxing finally finished speaking.

But Qin Feiyang still did not believe it.

Ren Duxing paused a moment, then said, "Although Mu Tianyang died in battle back then, his Divine Bone did not perish, and he was lucky enough to retain a trace of his Divine Sense."

Qin Feiyang frowned, "That's impossible, isn't it?"

The first Emperor was so remarkable; if Mu Tianyang truly had a trace of Divine Sense remaining, it would have been impossible for the Emperor not to discover it. Could it be that the first Emperor was kind-hearted and deliberately gave him a chance to survive? Thinking about it, Qin Feiyang really felt that was a possibility. The Mermaid clan had also been mortal enemies of the first Emperor, but in the end, the first Emperor not only let them go but also arranged a habitat for them. This showed that the first Emperor was a benevolent ruler. If he could spare the Mermaid clan, then sparing Mu Tianyang wouldn't seem too extraordinary either. But these were all his conjectures. Without confirmation, he dared not make a definitive judgment.

Qin Feiyang asked, "If Mu Tianyang is really alive, will he seek revenge?"

"Definitely." Ren Duxing nodded without hesitation, thought for a moment, and then said, "But he definitely won't make a move in the short term."

"Why?" Qin Feiyang asked.

Ren Duxing explained, "Because he needs time to recover his cultivation."

Qin Feiyang asked, "Uncle Ren, may I ask a question I shouldn't? How do you know all this?"

Ren Duxing replied, "In the legacy he left behind, there is a part of his memory."

"Inherited memory?" Qin Feiyang furrowed his brows. He didn't quite understand these things yet, but he could think of one thing.

If Ren Duxing had received Mu Tianyang's legacy, then he would essentially be Mu Tianyang's Disciple!

Qin Feiyang watched Ren Duxing, uncertainty flickering in his eyes.

Ren Duxing asked curiously, "What are you thinking?"

"I'm wondering if you'll become Mu Tianyang's pawn in the future?" Qin Feiyang stated directly.

This matter was too significant. He didn't dare to be complacent. Because if Ren Duxing and Mu Tianyang joined forces, the situation would worsen. That's why he needed to know Ren Duxing's stance first.

"Ah!" Ren Duxing looked at Qin Feiyang in astonishment, then shook his head and laughed, "Although your question makes me somewhat unhappy, I understand it. Rest assured, I couldn't do such a thing; my pride, my backbone, won't allow me to."

Qin Feiyang said, "I hope Uncle Ren can keep his word."

Ren Duxing solemnly replied, "If I can't, you don't need to hesitate in the future. Kill me. With your talent, you will surpass me sooner or later."

"I will." Qin Feiyang nodded.

Ren Duxing asked, "Any more questions?"

"Yes," Qin Feiyang said. "This question has been bothering me. I always feel like someone is watching me in the shadows and informing the Monkey King and the Sacred Monkey about my moves."

Ren Duxing laughingly admitted, "I have been watching you in secret all along."

That's not right!

Suddenly, Ren Duxing's expression changed. "Even though I've been watching you, I haven't informed them. Are you sure about this?"

Qin Feiyang replied, "I'm certain. No matter where I hide, the Sacred Monkey can catch up in no time."

"Strange. Why would this happen?" Ren Duxing furrowed his brows.

Qin Feiyang asked, "Uncle Ren, is there anyone else in this ravine?"

Ren Duxing replied, "Apart from you, there's only me."

"No!" Qin Feiyang stated. "There's one more person, Lu Xingchen!"

"You're suspecting Xingchen?" Ren Duxing looked at him in surprise.

"He's worth suspecting," Qin Feiyang said in a solemn voice. "Because he was originally dead, but suddenly came back to life. This time, when I came to the ruins to find you, the Lord had Lu Xingchen accompany me specifically for me to investigate him."
