"It's like this..."
Baili Ying and the others hesitated for a moment, but they dared not lie before such a formidable man. After all, lying in his presence could easily lead to disaster if exposed.
Naturally, they could not reveal the entire truth. Instead, they chose their words carefully, emphasizing the cruelty of the Blood God Kingdom and portraying the Baili race as pitiful, weak, and helpless.
"Blood God Kingdom—sacrificing lives, devouring blood—that's how it is..."
After hearing Baili Ying and the others, Gu Chuan immediately understood the reason for the downfall of the Baili race. It wasn't their fault; they were simply too weak.
In a world like the Origin Continent—where the weak are prey to the strong—being weak is akin to an original sin. Even if one commits no wrong, falling out of favor with a powerful figure or being chosen as a sacrifice could lead to the extermination of an entire race. This is the tragedy of the weak.
Across the Origin Continent, countless tribes like the Baili have perished. The Baili race was neither the first nor will it be the last.
