Many different thoughts flashed through the Human Sovereign’s mind as he made the mental preparations to haggle with Yang Kai. At the same time, he was also secretly planning to surrender if the latter made any outrageous requests. So long as Yang Kai didn’t request for his throne, everything else was negotiable. And as long as he could keep Yang Kai controlled, he could slowly think of ways to deal with Yang Kai.

“Tell me about the history of this Human Imperial City and the Revolving World.”

“Huh? What?” The Human Sovereign gawked, wondering if he just misheard the question.

At this moment, the Human Sovereign was basically fish on the chopping block, and this outsider was holding the chef’s knife. Yet, the Human Sovereign absolutely didn’t expect Yang Kai to make such a request. The Human Sovereign was mentally prepared to pay a pound of flesh, yet Yang Kai only wanted to pluck one strand of hair from him… no, this couldn’t even count as a strand of hair.

“You really are old. Have you gone blind and deaf?” Yang Kai stared coldly at him, somewhat dissatisfied with the Human Sovereign’s response.

Only then did the Human Sovereign realise that Yang Kai really was making such a simple request. As he secretly attempted to guess the reason behind Yang Kai’s question, he simultaneously rearranged his thought processes and replied, “Since you, Esteemed One, wish to know, then this Sovereign…”

“Hm?”

“Then this Old Master will briefly summarize,” a somewhat awkward look appeared on the Human Sovereign’s face. It had always been other people watching his expressions to handle matters. Never had he expected a day to come where he would have to handle matters in accordance with someone else’s expression.

“This Old Master’s knowledge is also limited, so if there are areas that aren’t too detailed, please do not be offended, Esteemed One.”

Yang Kai waved his hand, “Just get on with it.”

The Human Sovereign let off a dry cough before continuing, “In reality, this Revolving World can be considered a part of the Star Boundary. Naturally, back when the two places were still connected, the Star Boundary wasn’t yet known as the Star Boundary. I’m also not too sure what that ancient people called it, but it seems our ancestors called themselves the Barbarian Race, while their Masters cultivated Shamanic Strength. Clansmen gathered together into tribes to form the structure of society. Although there were internal conflicts, the human race flourished.”

As he continued to speak, he quietly observed the expression on Yang Kai’s face, noticing that the latter’s expression had grown somewhat strange, as though he was reminiscing about something. Not knowing which part of his explanation had caused Yang Kai’s expression to change so, he did not dare to stop, “All of a sudden, the Heavens fell and the Earth was rent, before a gigantic hole appeared in the sky. Powerful Masters proceeded to stream out of the hole and attacked the Barbarian Race. These Masters that came from an unknown place called themselves the Demon Race. They had many powerful Masters, with murder and carnage being the defining traits of their characters. Many tribes suffered immense numbers of injuries and deaths. Faced with such a strange and dangerous foe, our ancestors were naturally unwilling to wait helplessly for death, and therefore mustered the strength of the entire Barbarian Race to resist.”

war between the races was incomparably intense, seemingly lasting for many decades. Both races, be it the Barbarian or the Demon Race suffered massive casualties, and the battlefield where the final act of the war happened has become what is now

replied, “Esteemed one, you don’t know, but the reason why our ancestors were able to win that war seems to be related to the Sacred Tree. From the records written down in ancient books, the Sacred Tree had given up its life and sealed the passageway the Demon Race was using to invade our world. However, it was a pity, as in the end, for some unknown reason, a conflict arose between the World Principles of the Star Boundary and the Demon Realm, causing the entire battlefield to be exiled into the Void. This led to the birth of the Revolving World. The few survivors from the Barbarian and Demon Race who were on that battlefield at the time managed to survive and proceeded to settle in this place.

Human Sovereign gave an embarrassed laugh, “Our ancestors had thought of that; however, who would have known that the World Barriers would be so firm? Before talking about finding a way back, one would first need to find a way to break through this barrier.” Right after saying those words, the face of the Human Sovereign suddenly changed as he looked suspiciously at Yang Kai and asked,
