Chapter 375: Their Story

Seeing that his younger brother no longer hesitated, Diwu Zexi nodded and said, "Let’s go."

After some inquiries and searches, Diwu Zexi and Diwu Zenan finally found Xu Xiang’s home. Standing in front of the closed door, Diwu Zexi patted the black token inside his clothes. He took a few deep breaths to suppress his nervousness, then raised his hand and knocked on the door.

Knock, knock, knock.

Inside the house, Xu Xiang was checking her weapons. When she heard a knock on the door, she thought it was A Lu Ge and went to open the door.

As soon as she opened the door, Diwu Zexi said, "Good morning, Elder Sister Xu Xiang. I’m sorry for disturbing you today, but I have important things to discuss with you."

Hearing his polite words, Xu Xiang raised her eyebrows slightly and thought: ’His upbringing is too excellent. These two boys must have had extraordinary origins. I wonder what he wants to discuss with me.’

After a moment of silence, she smiled at them, stepped aside and said, "Come in."

Seeing how calm she was, the two brothers exchanged glances before walking into the house. Sitting on the soft rug, Xu Xiang looked at them and asked, "Have you two eaten?"

After glancing at the soft and clean rug, and then at their dirty bodies and clothes, Diwu Zexi chose to sit on the wooden floor and said, "Yes. Thank you for asking, Elder Sister Xu Xiang."

After the two of them sat on the wooden floor, Xu Xiang asked, "What do you want to discuss with me?"

Diwu Zexi was silent for a while, then gritted his teeth, and took out the black token. He put the black token on the wooden floor, looked at Xu Xiang, and said calmly: "Elder Sister Xu Xiang, we are here today to make a deal with you."

Seeing his serious expression, Xu Xiang observed the two of them for a while and asked, "What kind of deal?"

Pushing the black token forward, Diwu Zexi said, "This is the Qilin Order of my Diwu clan. It can command one hundred thousand elite soldiers."

Looking at the black token in the shape of a Qilin, Xu Xiang said, "The Qilin is a symbol of divinity and a peace-loving creature that will only appear under the rule of a wise and benevolent ruler."

She looked away from the Qilin Order, looked at the two brothers, and said, "Since your clan can use the Qilin as a symbol, then the two of you should come from a noble clan. Tell me, which empire do you belong to? Why did you come to Shen Gu Village? Why are you telling me about this Qilin Order that can command a hundred thousand elite soldiers? What is your motive for approaching me?"

Diwu Zexi knew that if they did not confess everything right now, they would not be able to get Xu Xiang’s help. Just as he was about to speak, his younger brother grabbed the hem of his clothes and looked at him with worried eyes.

Diwu Zexi smiled at his younger brother and said in a low voice: "It will be fine. Don’t worry."

Seeing the calm expression on his elder brother’s face, Diwu Zenan hesitated for a moment, nodded to him, and let go. Xu Xiang sat there quietly, watching their exchange thoughtfully.

After comforting his younger brother, Diwu Zexi looked back at Xu Xiang and calmly said, "We are the young masters of the Diwu clan of the Bei Wei Empire. We came to this Shen Gu Village by chance, but we are here to make a deal with you sincerely."

After a moment of silence, Xu Xiang smiled. "Before you tell me what kind of deal you want from me, I want to know why young masters who possess a token that can command one hundred thousand elite soldiers became a refugee in the first place."

As soon as her question came out, Diwu Zexi’s eyes turned cold. Sitting in front of him, Xu Xiang could feel his murderous intent and see the deep hatred in his eyes clearly.

Seeing Diwu Zexi closing his eyes and controlling his emotions, Xu Xiang thought to herself: ’This boy should be about the same age as A Lu Zhi or Xiao Han, but he already has such deep hatred. If he takes the wrong path in the future, he will become the incarnation of the devil and disrupt the peace of this world.’

A few seconds later, Diwu Zexi opened his eyes and said, "Qi Liju exterminated my clan because he was afraid of the military power of my Diwu clan. When he knew that only the legal heirs of the Diwu clan or those who possessed the Qilin Order could command the Diwu Army, he decided to force my father to hand over the Qilin Order by threatening him with the lives of all the members of the Diwu clan."

At this point, he gritted his teeth and said, "As the patriarch of the Diwu clan, my father had no other choice. In order to save everyone’s lives, my father decided to hand over the Qilin Order to him, but in the end, Qi Liju refused to let us go. Fortunately, the empress secretly snuck us into her palace before Qi Liju sent troops to surround our residence. When she received the news of the massacre of the Diwu clan, she gave us money and false identities, and then sent us out from the Bei Wei Empire."

As if remembering that tragic day, Diwu Zexi looked out the window in a daze. After a long silence, he said in a low voice: "After leaving the palace, we blended in with the refugees and finally left the Bei Wei Empire. While we were waiting for our chance to avenge our parents and clan members, we came to this village by chance."

He moved his eyes away from the window, then looked directly at Xu Xiang. "As soon as I stepped into this village, I began investigating everyone. Although everyone said that you have no authority in this village, I know that the highest authority in this village is you. This is why I decided to come here today and make a deal with you."
