Zhou Bai swept his hand grandly, frantically consuming laziness points, spending all 600,000 of them in one go.
Instantly, a massive amount of knowledge surged into his mind, and he felt his Artifact Refining theory level skyrocket, as if he had diligently studied it for more than a decade.
At the sa ti, Jiaojiao's figure appeared before Zhou Bai, asking in confusion, "What's the matter? Zhou Bai."
Zhou Bai montarily set aside the rapid growth of his Artifact Refining theory level, stood up, and looking at Jiaojiao, he said, "Elder, there are so things I want to tell you."
In Zhou Bai's sea of consciousness, Christina, who had co along, watched the scene with a nervous expression.
Zhou Bai steadied his spirit, ready to ask the question he had carefully prepared.
After all, the last ti he outright spoke of Christina's situation, Zhou Bai had been blasted to death by the Elder.
Therefore, this ti, Zhou Bai naturally took heed of the lesson and wasn't as direct.
Jiaojiao looked at him with curiosity, "What is it?"
Zhou Bai: "Elder, actually I... I like you."
Jiaojiao: "Ah?"
Zhou Bai clenched his fist tight, then suddenly opened his mouth wide, and a string of words he had already prepared rushed out, "Actually, from the first ti I saw you, I liked you. I know it's impossible between us, and today, I just wanted to tell you this!"
Jiaojiao looked at Zhou Bai, whose face was red and who was awkwardly fidgeting, and suddenly laughed, "Alright, I know. But you're not my type, so don't think too much about it."
Jiaojiao Wisdom -2
Zhou Bai felt a small jolt in his heart: "Only a reduction of 2? And this feeling, it's likely that within twenty-odd seconds, her wisdom will recover.
Within those twenty-odd seconds, even if I spoke as fast as I could, I could tell at most 5 lies, at best reducing Jiaojiao's wisdom by a dozen points... It looks like I can't extract information from the Elder by reducing her wisdom after all."
The ability to reduce wisdom of the Fool was based on the absurdity of the lies, as well as the power gap between the parties.
Seeing this outco and comparing it to the results he had last ti when he successfully deceived Yan Zhen and lowered his wisdom, Zhou Bai instantly realized that Jiaojiao's strength was even greater than Yan Zhen's.
The last ti he deceived Yan Zhen, he could keep Yan Zhen's wisdom consistently below the level of an ordinary person.
"That is to say, the Elder's strength is probably stronger than that of an ordinary deity of the Heavenly Departnt. Is it because of the Supre Divine Power? Or because of so aberration?"
On the other side, Jiaojiao watched Zhou Bai, who was now silent with his head down, thinking that he had gone into a self-imposed isolation.
Today, controlling her young girl's appearance, she was transmitting visual and tactile information to Zhou Bai.
She could be seen flying in front of Zhou Bai, touching his head and saying with a smile, "Don't overthink it. A fine young man like you is sure to find your other half in the future."
"Right," Zhou Bai nodded, his strategy for reducing wisdom not having panned out, so he had to ask directly.
But he still couldn't directly ntion Christina's situation.
Thus, Zhou Bai said, "Elder, I have so other questions I want to ask you,"
Jiaojiao, "Any other questions?"
Zhou Bai, "Do you know how we won the Human-Demon War?"
Jiaojiao furrowed her brows, "Why are you asking this?"
Zhou Bai exhaled sharply, suddenly saying, "Great Elder, in fact, the last ti I was in West Mountain City, I sneaked out into the wilderness and found the location where the Plague Departnt was refining aberrant weapons. It was a place that replicated the ancient celestial palaces. I learned many things there."
Jiaojiao's gaze sharpened, and she said solemnly, "What did you learn?"
Zhou Bai, "Were the demons... did they rule over the Earth for a period of ti? Did the human race lose the Great Human-Demon War?"
Jiaojiao let out a deep sigh, "You've learned that too?"
Zhou Bai's heart skipped a beat, 'Success, the Great Elder believes .'
Christina swallowed nervously, anticipating that they would now learn the great secret they had been wanting to know.
Jiaojiao shook her head, "According to the records of the Three Pure Dao Sect, the demons indeed ruled the world for a period. However, it didn't last many years before the leading demon immortals started infighting. At that ti, the leader of the Demon Clan, the Demon Saint, vanished without a trace, leaving just the Demon God to struggle alone."
As the demons fell into civil strife and the Demon Saint went missing, the remaining humans and celestial gods seized the opportunity to launch a counter-offensive.
During the great battle, the descendant of the Xia dynasty, Ji Wuchang, wielding the Human Emperor's Sword alongside celestial gods, jointly slew the Demon God, exhausting his strength and perishing in the process.
The remaining nurous demon immortals were also jointly executed one by one by the celestial gods.
The demons across the world suffered a massive purge, nearly wiped out.
After hearing Jiaojiao's words, Zhou Bai questioned, "If we ultimately won in the end, why conceal this part of history?"
Jiaojiao looked at Zhou Bai as if trying to see through him, making Christina in his sea of consciousness feel a bit uneasy, wondering if the other party had detected her.
It wasn't until Zhou Bai also felt a chill down his spine that Jiaojiao finally spoke slowly, "Zhou Bai, having achieved first place in the Four Schools Tournant and having mastered two Supre Divine Powers, you're about to represent humanity in the discussions of Daluo Heaven. There are indeed so things I can now tell you."
Zhou Bai nodded, understanding that what Jiaojiao was about to say must be of great importance. It was only after multiple achievents, contributions, repelling the Heavenly Demons, and resisting the pressure from celestial gods that he gradually earned the other party's trust.
Then he directly used the information from Christina's resurgent mories to coax the truth out of Jiaojiao.
Jiaojiao, "What I am about to tell you, Zhou Bai, concerns the rise and fall of the entire human race and the celestial court. It is the greatest secret amongst Heaven and Earth, and it's a secret that our Three Pure Dao Sect has also hidden for hundreds of years. You must not disclose it to a second person."
"The Great Human-Demon War back then..."
Back then, when the demons defeated the celestial court and ruled over humanity, their debauchery and extortion were so great that both mixed-blooded humans and pure-blooded demons procreated recklessly and without inhibition.
As a result, even though humans eventually defeated the demons, the bloodlines of demons already rampaged throughout Heaven and Earth.
The celestial gods of that ti decided to initiate a massive purge, eliminating most of the demons and so of the inherently violent and bloodthirsty mixed-blooded demons.
But at that ti, neither the human experts nor the gods of the celestial court anticipated that things were not that simple.
"The bloodline of demons is more suited to this planet than humans and proved much more tenacious and troubleso. In Earth's environnt, their ability to reproduce and pass on their heritage far exceeded that of humans."
Jiaojiao sighed, "As long as there is a drop of demonic blood in the bloodline, all descendants will contain the essence of demonic blood."
