What is the blood of the gods?
Aida Kang thought of the father they shared with the Third Martial Emperor, the Second Martial Emperor, and their grandfather, the Martial Emperor.
They were all dead.
Aida Kang had never seen his grandfather and for a while believed that his grandfather had not died because everything he had heard told of how powerful the Martial Emperor was.
In the era that used cold weapons, he was truly one against ten thousand.
Strength was only one aspect; it was the prolonged life span that was the most important effect of qi, meaning true evolution.
Thus, like many apes and monkeys of the empire, he had doubted that the Martial Emperor was dead, thinking he had simply abandoned worldly affairs to seek an even higher level of evolution.
