Chapter 1020: Prehistoric Secrets
Li Xiaofei realized that someone behind the scenes must have deliberately concealed the truth about the so-called perfectly evolved Reaper race that had ascended.
Who could that person be? After thinking it over, there was only one possibility. It was the Ancestor of Wisdom.
That would also explain why the Ancestor of Wisdom had launched the humanization campaign within the Reaper world. It was also why his chosen disciples were obsessed with unraveling the mystery of evolution.
Even the Ancestor of Wisdom himself didn’t seem to know how that ancient King-ranked race had managed to evolve into humans. So he was seeking the truth as well. However, he didn’t want others to discover the secret behind the evolved race.
That was why all the divine statues in the ruins of the various King-ranked clans had been destroyed. Only he would have had the power to do such a thing. Suddenly, Li Xiaofei realized that there was indeed a deep division within the Reaper race.
Not only had the Ancestor of Wisdom and the Ancestor of Strength played elaborate mind games against each other, but even when it came to the other King-ranked clans, the Ancestor of Wisdom had treated them as resources and materials. He had never truly intended to lead the Reaper race toward greatness or glory.
After all, he had even gone so far as to scheme against the Ancestor of Strength. He had even entertained the idea of forming an alliance with the five Human Emperors.
"So, after you split from the Ancestor of Strength, did you go straight to the human world?" asked Li Xiaofei.
Wei Xiaotian nodded. "Of course. It was the best choice to go to the humans from beyond the domain. They weren’t under the Ancestor of Wisdom’s control, and they still carry the original evolutionary mystery. If I wanted to transcend and achieve ultimate evolution, wouldn’t I need to immerse myself in humanity? Didn’t you notice? Even the Ancestor of Wisdom, the root of all this chaos, took on a human form and promoted the transformation of the entire race into humans."
Li Xiaofei thought for a moment, then said, "I have one more question."
