Listening to Di Jiao's account, Qin Yuanfeng felt a surge of turbulent emotions in his heart. He could sense the heavy weight of that ancient history, as well as the grievances and mission that Di Jiao carried. Looking at Di Jiao, a hint of reverence entered his eyes. "Apologies, senior, for my presumptuousness just now. I passed by the valley entrance twice, yet failed to sense your presence either time. May I ask why you chose to appear now?"
With a helpless sigh, Di Jiao replied, "Junior, you dared to venture into the Ghost Valley with such weak strength. Originally, I had no desire to manage your affairs, but since you bear the Human Emperor Formula and must have obtained my father's legacy, I had no choice but to step in and protect you!"
Hearing this, Qin Yuanfeng suddenly understood. He bowed deeply to Di Jiao and said, "Thank you, senior, for saving my life. To be honest, I did indeed obtain the legacy of His Majesty the Human Emperor, but because my cultivation time has been too short, my current strength is still capped at the Peak Martial Sage Realm. Right now, a faction outside is using the power of Gods and Demons to subvert our Human Race once again. With no other option, I had to step into the Ghost Valley in search of a way to break through so that I can boost my strength as quickly as possible!"
