Seeing the distressed look on Yang Kai’s face, Elder and Mu Na glanced at each other before they bowed together, pleading, “Honoured Guest, we request you to help our two clans!”

Yang Kai promptly stepped back and indifferently declared, “You two… The both of you are asking for the impossible from me.”

Elder shook his head and stated, “It’s not like that. We are just following the Heavens’ will.”

“The Heaven’s will?” Yang Kai sneered, “Where did this Heavens’ will come from?”

Elder smiled as he turned sideways and said, pointing at a certain cave wall, “Honoured Guest, please look.”

Mu Na also waved her hand as a streak of radiant light suddenly flew out, brightening the imprints on the wall of the cave. The stream of light remained close to a certain part of the wall, slowly lingering around it, and as the light shone on the wall, Yang Kai suddenly discovered a set of extremely old pictures.

In the first picture, a person was sitting cross-legged with a round stone before him. His finger was stretched out and blood was dripping from his fingertip down onto the stone. Strangely, the blood dripping from this man’s fingertip wasn’t red but gold.

Yang Kai stared at it this a daze, but before he could make the heads and tails of it, his gaze involuntarily shifted to the second picture, following the movement of the streak of light.

In the second painting, the man was still sitting cross-legged, but there was a small figure near him this time. The figure was crouching on all fours, like a monkey, chasing butterflies.

The two pictures were drawn using the simplest of lines and looked extremely rough, but they vividly expressed the meaning intended.

[Isn’t this Xiao Xiao and me!?] Yang Kai was dumbfounded and couldn’t believe his eyes. The small figure was clearly Xiao Xiao, and the figure dripping the golden blood could be none other than him!

[But this… painting has already mottled with time. It’s extremely old, at least thousands of years… so how can it be of me?]

Yang Kai couldn’t help but find it extremely surreal.

He then looked at the third picture. Yang Kai couldn’t help but have his pupils shrink at what he saw, because in the third picture, it was the scene of Xiao Xiao and him fighting side by side, with Xiao Xiao holding the Heaven Shaking Pillar. The painting was drawn with forceful strokes, it was vivid and filled with majesty.

The fourth picture seemed to be inside a tunnel with points of light lingering around it. The space was shattered and Xiao Xiao was falling into blackness, leaving only his one hand remaining outside, trying to reach out to grab hold of something.
