Chapter 967 - Radix And Hosu

The stranger was very powerful and exerted immense pressure on Xia Fei, and he had also told Xia Fei many secrets about the Founders.

Whether intentionally or not, Xia Ke had once revealed that the Skywings would eventually battle with the Founders. Xia Fei was puzzled, feeling as if this stranger had intentionally revealed information about the Founders toward him.

He did not know what this guy was up to, and he felt his questions increase as his mind rapidly worked.

If Xia Fei had been able to hear another conversation taking place in the same time and same place, everything would have been easily resolved. Alas, Radix and the stranger were having a conversation on another frequency. No one else except them could know what they were saying.

"Hosu! You're Hosu?!" asked Radix excitedly. In Xia Fei's eyes, Radix had not done anything too unreasonable, but on another frequency, Radix was already in tears.

The stranger lightly nodded and indifferently said, "Radix, long time no see. I didn't think that you'd find the young lord's bloodline before me."

This region of space had been divided into two completely unrelated planes. On one plane, Xia Fei was speaking with Hosu, and Radix was in another. The two did not interfere with each other in any way.

Hosu was that superexpert who had come to this universe aboard the Ark, the one who had single-handedly sealed the Cosmic Gate! He was that mysterious existence!

It was truly rather laughable. Xia Fei had long ago wanted to meet this superexpert, but now that he was in front of him, he absolutely had no idea. In fact, the stubborn Xia Fei had even regarded Hosu as his enemy and swung his blade at him!

For some reason, Hosu was unwilling to reveal himself. Radix had realized who Hosu was and wanted to tell Xia Fei, but he had been stopped. Thus, Xia Fei had believed this entire time that he was standing before some profoundly powerful hermit, never linking him to the legendary Hosu.

"The young lord?" Radix was stunned, and then his eyes dimmed as he shook his head. "I really can't remember the past. Besides the fact that you're Hosu, I'm Radix, and we boarded the Ark and entered the Cosmic Gate together, I can't remember anything else."

Hosu nodded slightly. He raised his head and let out a light, which wrapped up Radix's soul.

A few moments later, Hosu took back the light and softly said, "Oh, it seems like you're severely damaged from the explosion; your Soul Mark is badly damaged and must be repaired first before you can recover your abilities and memories."

"Then what should I do? I don't want to remain clueless like this," Radix said anxiously.

Hosu smiled. "It's fine. I'll help you."

...

"Do you remembered now?" Hosu smiled at Radix once he finished repairing the latter's Soul Mark.

Radix did not have a good complexion as he nodded. "Yes, I remember it all now. When I think back to everything that I've been through, it really feels like another lifetime ago."

Hosu quietly smiled, exuding the demeanor of a master.

"What of our young lord?" asked Radix after a pause.

Hosu went pale as he painfully shook his head.

Radix was also very grief-stricken, letting out a heart-rending roar, two warm trails of tears running down his face.

Hosu said, "Cosmic Wolfslayer, the third most vicious poison in the universe. Even our young lord wasn't able to hold on against it. No matter how long he could have endured, he would ultimately die to the poison."

Radix said nothing, still immersed in his sorrow.

Hosu cleared his throat and continued speaking. "The young lord had a child with Xia Lingbo of the Skywing Clan, who was Xia Fei's father, our little lord. At the age of twenty-four, the little lord died from the Wolfslayer, leaving behind Xia Fei.

"As such, Xia Fei has 25% Skywing blood, 25% Aurora blood, and the remaining 50% belongs to his mother, the blood of an Earthling."

Radix hastily asked, "Then where is Xia Fei's mother now? She should still be alive."

Hosu shook his head. "It's not that simple. Wolfslayer isn't just a vicious poison of the universe; it's also an insidious curse! One death leads to two deaths!"

Xia Fei had never investigated his background. In his view, it was more important to be himself. He had little idea that he had such a bizarre background. Two generations of his family had all died because of one of the universe's most powerful poisons! Xia Fei was now the third generation.

Furthermore, this meant that Xia Fei also had a grandfather from beyond the Cosmic Gate! If he learned of this, his jaw would definitely drop. This was beyond the Cosmic Gatea strange, mysterious, and unknown world! Also, what was this Aurorean species?

"In other words, Xia Fei is now our little lord. Have you suddenly appeared before him to tell him about what's going on beyond the Cosmic Gate?" Radix asked.

Hosu replied, "The time isn't right. What would be the point of telling our little lord anything about beyond the Cosmic Gate at his current cultivation?"

Radix helplessly said, "That's true. After all, beyond the Cosmic Gate is a place of crouching tigers and hidden dragons. This side of the universe is so much safer that it's basically a paradise."

Changing the subject, Radix asked, "Xia Fei is twenty-four this year. Does that mean that the Wolfslayer poison has been undone and has no effect on him? After all, his father, who was half-Aurorean, only lived until the age of twenty-four. Xia Fei has only 25% of the Aurora's blood, so the fact that he's been able to last this long is simply unbelievable."

Hosu clearly was not as optimistic as Radix, sternly saying, "It's hard to say. Let's see how things go. From what I've seen thus far, Xia Fei's mix of blood has produced a miraculous effect. Logically, since he has 50% Earthling blood, he should never have been as strong as the young lord, but the potential and combat strength Xia Fei is showing is even greater than the young lord's!"

Radix was startled. He nodded and said, "This is truly very strange. Perhaps we underestimated the Earthling bloodline. When the young lord's Aurora bloodline mixed with the devilish blood of the Skywings and the mysterious blood of the Earthling was added in, it must've produced an almost explosive energy!

"Did you know? Two days ago, the little lord even managed to kill a level 8 Superior Law God who had mastered three laws! It's truly a wondrous battle! Thinking about it now, it's truly infused with the style of a peerless master of the Aurorean species!"

Radix went on to recount Xia Fei's universe-shaking battle with New Moon. However, Hosu merely replied with cold indifference, "I was nearby during that battle and was able to see it clearly. His style was naturally there, but compared to the young lord, Xia Fei lacked elegance and had more madness. He relied entirely on unreasonable moves to harass his opponent to death."

Radix was immediately upset by these words, saying in an unfriendly tone, "Is there anything wrong with Xia Fei doing that? Elegance? Is elegance enough to kill your enemy? Our young lord focused too much on elegance, allowing a wicked man to use one of the universe's strange poisons on him, and his soul ultimately dissipated into nothing!"

"If I had to choose, I'd rather survive while being as unreasonable as Xia Fei than elegantly die like our young lord!"

"You!" Hosu was so angry that his face turned green. He grumbled, "Elegance is the root of the Auroreans! It can't be forsaken! The Auroreans are revered by the other sentient lifeforms because they're straightforward and upright. While Xia Fei is the young lord's descendant, his style is too shady, his methods too vicious. He needs to be corrected!"

"Corrected, my ass!" Radix glared as he cursed. That attitude was rather similar to Xia Fei's unreasonableness. Unknowingly, Radix had been deeply influenced by him.

"Radix, after so many years, how did you become like this? Where's that loyal and elegant Radix of the past? Whom did you learn this from?!" Hosu, who was clearly not good at cursing at others, had huffed and puffed until his neck turned red following Radix's rude words.

Radix smiled as he replied, "I've naturally learned it from our little lord, Xia Fei! No matter what, the little lord has never lost out! Not only does he never lose, he even takes what he wants, always reaping a great profit!"

Hosu was rendered utterly speechless. He was a very upright person and found it impossible to imagine Xia Fei's wicked methods, nor could he imagine how his good friend Radix had slowly been corrupted by the little lord until he believed that Xia Fei's way was the right one.

Radix held out his hand to Hosu and said, "Hand it over!"

"'Hand over' what?"

"Cut the nonsense. The young lord is gone, but his inheritance is not! Xia Fei is the little lord, so he should inherit the young lord's legacy!" Radix said unreasonably.

Hosu waved his hand and sternly said, "Radix, you're only a soul ship. You don't have the right to demand what the young lord left behind!"

"Soul ship?" Radix sneered. "Don't forget! Before I was a soul ship, I was an indomitable expert just like you! It's one thing before when I lost all my memories from the explosion, but now that I've recovered my memories, don't think about bullying me around! I should've let you be refined into a soul ship while I escorted the young lord, instead!

"Now, enough with the nonsense! By right, the young lord's legacy belongs to the little lord. It's not your place to manage it! Hand it over!"

Radix was merciless, insisting that Hosu hand over the legacy of Xia Fei's grandfather.

Hosu, who was a very honest person and had not learned how to deal with Xia Fei's style of unreasonableness, insisted, "The young lord's legacy is a matter of grave importance, and the little lord can't use it yet. If it gets lost, neither you nor I can bear the consequences! It won't be too late to give it to him once he's gotten a little higher in cultivation."

"Hosu, you're treating the young lord's possessions as your own now?! It seems like I should tell the little lord about your true identity so that he can punish you!"

Radix had only been with Xia Fei for a few months, but he had already learned Xia Fei's tricks of making baseless accusations! These words had Hosu thoroughly convinced. It turned out that an unreasonable person who acted unreasonable was truly difficult to deal with!

This was only Radix, who had only learned a few of Xia Fei's tricks. If Xia Fei had been the one speaking, Hosu would be put through excruciating torture.

"No!" Hosu held out a hand to stop Radix. "Don't tell the little lord. Knowing too much right now won't do him any good."

"Then are you willing to hand over the young lord's legacy?" Radix turned his head and asked.

"I can't do that, either. Xia Fei is too curious, and if I hand it over, he'll try to learn and use it, and if things go wrong, chaos will ensue," Hosu helplessly said. "As long as you're willing to keep this matter a secret, you can do anything you want to me."

Hosu was truly a loyal man. In order to protect Xia Fei's grandfather, he had crippled his cultivation to seal the Cosmic Gate. This was the proof that he was a man of steeled determination!

Alas, this man was too simple, too loyal, and a little too obstinate. He felt that Xia Fei still could not inherit his master's legacy, so he continued holding fast in his resistance.

Radix glanced at Xia Fei and sternly said, "The little lord has dabbled in many fields and is clearly walking the path of a protean master.. You know what you ought to do."
