Chapter 35

After briefly returning to his true companion spirit form in the no-man's land, Zhu Shaoquan felt much more comfortable, and all the fatigue brought by the nightmare was swept away.

The prototype of the hyena is embarrassing, but that is his true self after all, and it is impossible to hide it forever.

Although companion spirits are determined at birth, due to the different developmental levels of children during childhood, many people's companion spirits will be distorted to varying degrees in their childhood. Therefore, the form of the companion spirit will not be officially registered in the Imperial Citizenship Registration until the age of fifteen.

Hyenas and leopards have some similarities in appearance, but Zhu Shaoquan's hyena looks quite strange. If you don't look closely, you might think it is a leopard cub.

When he was thirteen, he found a way to correct the form of his companion spirit, hiding it from even his family, and at the age of fifteen, he boldly registered as a leopard.

He has done countless fraudulent things in his life, and this is no exception.

After a good light wave bath, he felt as if even his skin had improved. Zhu Shaoquan specially applied a calming patch on himself and planned to rest tonight - he hadn't been able to get a full night's sleep in the past few days.

Unfortunately, things did not go as he wished, and he dreamed of his past life again.

The medieval buildings were cramped and oppressive, and no one spoke on the streets. Everyone seemed to be in a hurry, with their heads down and silent.

A young boy who looked to be in his teens fell down in front of him unexpectedly. Zhu Shaoquan stepped forward to help him up, lifted his hood, revealing a snow-white little face.

Although she is still so young, her facial features are incredibly beautiful, especially her eyes shaped like peach petals, which are clear and bright, as if they are filled with tears.

The way he looked up at others, he looked so pitiful that it was hard not to feel soft-hearted.

In the dream, I looked at him with interest: "Little guy, are you my gift today?"

The young man stepped forward and grasped his arm. He was so soft and boneless, and his voice was like a nightingale: "Sir, I want you to..."

Zhu Shaoquan's heart beat uncontrollably, unconsciously bewitched by him: "Hmm? What do you want me to do to you?"

The sharp blade, which was laced with deadly poison, unexpectedly pierced his chest. Zhu Shaoquan stared wide-eyed, unable to understand what had happened.

The boy was not holding the handle of the knife, the knife was actually hanging in the air!

“You… who are you…”

He watched helplessly as blood gushed out of his wound, but he could do nothing.

The little kitten that was weak and helpless just now instantly turned into a ghost, and its affectionate eyes now showed only indifference.

The young man easily grabbed Zhu Shaoquan's neck with one hand and lifted him up, speaking word by word.

"—you must pay for the lives of my fathers!"

Before Zhu Shaoquan died, he recognized those eyes.

Ten years ago, one of the people he exposed for having an affair, Zhu Xiyuan, the white-robed divine servant coveted by countless people and the one closest to the position of Son of God, also had such a pair of haunting eyes.

The young child who lost his parents because of him came back for revenge.

Zhu Shaoquan woke up suddenly.

He already knew that those were not just dreams, but things that really happened thousands of years ago.

Or in a sense, he is the reincarnation of the person who was killed by the boy thousands of years later.

He had a splitting headache and couldn't breathe.

When I opened my eyes, I understood why I couldn't breathe.

Someone was lying on his chest.

Zhu Shaoquan was shocked and almost dropped the child off his body.

The kitten pulled down its ears and rubbed them, saying with a hint of annoyance, "Why are you making such a fuss?"

“You…you…”

The dream and reality suddenly overlapped, and Zhu Shaoquan stuttered for a long time but couldn't say anything.

The little cub turned over, got off him, and lay down beside him, leisurely raising his little feet and holding his chin with his hands, looking innocent.

"What's wrong, little uncle? Are you dreaming?"

The voice is as soft as a child's, and the questions asked are also very suitable for young children.

But Zhu Shaoquan looked at him as if he saw an enemy.

...and indeed they are enemies.

He grabbed the kitten by the scruff of the neck and dragged it under the bed, full of vigilance: "Why are you here?"

"You left the window open, so I came in." The cub put his hands on his hips, "I'm a cat!"

He has become very adept at accepting his identity.

Well, when it comes to climbing and jumping easily, cats are better than humans.

"Uncle, you haven't answered my question yet. Are you having a nightmare?"

Zhu Shaoquan's voice turned cold: "Don't pretend, I know you also have that memory."

"No, no." The child shook his head. "I don't have memories—I originally came from that time."

Zhu Shaoquan's pupils shrank: "Aren't you afraid that I will kill you now?"

Zhu Fu pointed to her wristband. "This era is pretty good. If I get hurt, my fathers will get the message right away. Even though I sneaked out while they were asleep—don't look at me like that—this wristband is also linked to a parent's account. If you forcibly remove it without authorization, it will still trigger the alarm."

The child raised his arms: "Tsk tsk, high technology is quite useful."

Zhu Shaoquan subconsciously took a step back: "What on earth do you want to do?"

Fu Fu was still wearing her sky blue one-piece pajamas, looking like a moving doll, but every word she spoke made the adults opposite her shudder.

"I just want to tell you that I have the leverage over you now."

"……What?"

"Of course I can't tell you now. Anyway, I just want to advise you to be sensible and not have any inappropriate thoughts about my fathers. Otherwise -"

He pointed at his tiny body, which was not even as tall as the bed. "Even with a weak and useless cub like this, I can still make you suffer a fate worse than death."

Zhu Shaoquan gritted his teeth.

"Brother, you're really not in good shape."

Xu Run was worried.

Yesterday Zhu Shaoquan said he went to the bathroom and felt much better after coming back. The food he ate in the evening was also effective.

As a result, it withered again today, and it is even worse than before.

Their itinerary today was to climb a small hill closest to the resort. It was a very low hill, but it was said that the scenery was nice after reaching the top.

Zhu Shaoquan was absent-minded and dazed the whole time, and Xu Run was afraid that he would lose his balance and roll down the mountain.

He slowed down his pace, put some distance between himself and the others, and came to Zhu Shaoquan: "Is there something on your mind?"

It didn't look like a simple physical discomfort.

Zhu Shaoquan slowly raised his head: "...Brother Xu."

"Um?"

"I really treat you as a friend."

"Yeah, me too, nice to meet you."

Zhu Shaoquan's eyes darkened. "I do have a favor to ask. Brother Xu, do you have any connections who can... do something secretive?"

Although the Xu family cannot be said to have absolute control over the military, they are at least at the top of the pyramid.

As Xu Tieren's only son, Xu Run may look harmless, but he will eventually take over the Xu family in the future. It is impossible for him to be a naive and ignorant person.

As soon as Zhu Shaoquan said this, he immediately understood.

Xu Run didn't answer immediately. Instead, he looked up and made sure that no one else was around. Then he lowered his voice and asked, "Have you encountered any difficult problems?"

Zhu Shaoquan's eyes darkened: "...someone wants to kill me."

Fuzi: Why did you only listen to the last sentence?

PS Xu Run is not a bad person~
