Chapter 113: The Ancient Savage World, Long Aotian
It is a blessed land, a royal residence, surrounded by spiritual energy, with fairy mist filling the sky, and rare birds and beasts everywhere. It is truly like a palace from heaven descended to the earth.
"Ah Qing!" The tall, handsome man laughed as he entered the room. The beautiful woman on the bed gave him a scolding look, "Keep your voice down! I finally managed to get those two little ones to sleep."
The man quickly lowered his voice, glanced at the baby in the cradle, and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the two little ancestors sleeping soundly.
He sat down beside his wife, gently holding her in his arms, and whispered, "Ah Qing, my eldest brother's youngest son accidentally fell into the lake in the garden a few days ago and was in a coma for several days. He finally woke up just now."
Luo Qing leaned on her husband's broad shoulders. Upon hearing this, she felt genuinely happy for her eldest brother's family. "That's fantastic! My eldest sister-in-law has been crying all day these past few days. We, her younger sister-in-law, have seen it all and we don't know what to say to comfort her."
Gu Hao hesitated to speak: "Alas... after the child woke up, he did some surprising things. If the elders had not personally investigated and found no problems..." He really suspected that his ancient clan bloodline might have been taken over by someone else.
He had heard that the ancient mighty ones had the technique of reincarnation and rebirth, but even the highly respected and powerful elders of the clan were unable to find anything unusual. Perhaps he was just being too suspicious.
Although he thought so, Gu Hao's brows were still tightly furrowed.
Luo Qing comforted her husband, saying, "Since the elders say so, there must be nothing wrong. Perhaps the child's temperament has changed drastically after experiencing such a life-or-death experience."
Gu Lingnan, who should have closed her eyes and gone to sleep, pricked up her ears and listened to the conversation between her parents.
Falling into the water, being in a coma for a few days, waking up with a completely different personality...
Gu Lingnan instantly became alert. She called out the system: "System, could this be the 'traveler'?"
The system, using the authority given by the world, observed the child mentioned by Long Aotian's parents, compared the data with the data provided by the headquarters, and finally confirmed: "Yes, host, he is the 'traveler' sent by the powerful."
Sure enough, she was right. This configuration was too familiar.
But Gu Lingnan felt her body going limp, and slowly collapsed like a salted fish.
Even if she knew who the time traveler was, what could she do with her current body? The system was a piece of crap. Alas, life was as hard as snow.
She said with despair: "System, speaking of which, do you know what my double pupils are? It's a cheat sent by the headquarters."
Gu Lingnan didn't think that having double pupils was a natural gift. If this was truly a gift from her soul, then why was she so ordinary in her previous life? She was a normal person from head to toe in her previous life, okay?
To be honest, she still doesn't dare to imagine what her eyes look like in this life. It always feels scary.
"Hmm... this probably has nothing to do with headquarters." The system flipped through the information for a long time before hesitantly saying, "Perhaps... it has something to do with your brother from your last mission."
After all, he is a powerful being above the Dao of Sacrifice, and is only one step away from immortality. It is not surprising that he has some mysterious means and systems.
Gu Lingnan, whose memory had been completely wiped clean, was shocked: "Well, my brother is quite a nice guy."
The system, which knows everything but is timid, does not comment on this.
Gu Lingnan thought silently: Sure enough, my brother is the most reliable. She always wondered what role the system played in her mission.
Is there anything else besides chatting to relieve boredom?
Meanwhile, the conversation between Gu Hao and his wife continued.
Gu Hao hugged his wife, his expression firm, as if he had made up his mind: "A Qing, I have something to tell you."
"Brother Hao, go ahead."
Luo Qing gazed at Gu Hao with her beautiful eyes filled with tender affection.
"Ah Qing, our children are incredibly talented, which is a good thing," Gu Hao said, his large hand gently brushing Luo Qing's long black hair. "However, only when talent is transformed into strength can one become a truly powerful person. We cannot waste their gifts."
Parents who love their children will plan for them in the long run.
Gu Hao tightened his jaw. "The baptism of six-year-olds is crucial. I need to find the best ancient medicine and true blood of exotic beasts for them."
Luo Qing was puzzled: "Brother Hao, the clan will prepare the best treasures for my son."
Gu Hao shook his head slightly: "There are many treasures in the clan, but the resources needed by Yao'er and Nan'er are even more massive. Besides, I... need to go to the Shiwan Mountains to find my master."
Luo Qing held Gu Hao's hand tightly: "Brother Hao..."
Gu Hao smiled bitterly, "I know I'm sorry for the sect and my master's teachings, but for the sake of the children's future... Ah Qing, I'll leave Yao'er and Nan'er in your care."
"No, Brother Hao." Luo Qing's determined eyes were incredibly beautiful. "I want to go with you. Back then, you and I narrowly escaped death to escape the Shiwan Mountains. How can I let you embark on this life-and-death journey alone?"
"A-Qing..."
Before Gu Hao could finish, Luo Qing spoke decisively, "Brother Hao! Yao'er and Nan'er are protected by the elders of the clan and served by servants. They are extremely safe. No one dares to attack the prince's residence in the imperial land guarded by the Human Emperor."
She softened her tone again: "What's more, Brother Hao, you and I have several extremely powerful magics. Only when we work together can we bring them to their full potential. With these powerful magics, it will be more possible to break through the blockade of the Hundred Thousand Mountains."
Gu Hao took his wife's soft, boneless hand, his eyes moistened: "Okay, we will go together as husband and wife."
While the couple was talking sweetly to each other, Gu Lingnan understood that her parents were going on a long journey.
She trembled and asked the system: "System, is this the perfect time for my brother to be persecuted?"
When their dearest parents are not around, no matter how carefully others take care of them, they are bound to be distracted at times, and Gu Lingnan and her brother are still so young.
The system replied honestly, "Indeed. And, host, don't forget about you. Double pupils, a talent on par with Supreme Bone, or even slightly superior, are also within the range of targets taken by the 'traverser'."
Gu Lingnan's eyes went dark in an instant. She was overwhelmed with grief and burst into tears.
Dad, Mom, please don't leave! Don't leave us orphans and widows in the clan. There are traitors in the clan. It's very dangerous!
As she stretched her leg, she kicked her brother who was sleeping soundly next to her. Her brother woke up in a daze and heard his sister crying. Although he didn't know what was going on, he also started crying.
Gu Hao and Luo Qing quickly separated, each holding one child, and frantically tried to coax them.
"I...I really traveled through time!"
Gu Yuanming sent away the maid who was taking care of him, and after dealing with the parents of this body in a confused manner, he stayed alone in the room with simple and elegant decoration, curiously touching his unfamiliar little hands and feet.
This body of his was about three years old, and he had no memory of his original body. When he woke up, a beauty he had never seen before hugged him tightly with tears in her eyes, repeating to herself, "My son, you finally woke up..."
I think it should be this body's mother, but he just woke up and was at a loss, with no time to disguise himself.
Fortunately, his original self was only three years old, so after a formidable old man saw him nod to his parents, his beautiful mother rushed over, hugged him, and comforted him repeatedly, "My poor son, mother has already executed those servants who couldn't even protect the young master. Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, my son, you have suffered so much."
He has traveled back to ancient times.
This was Gu Yuanming's first thought. The slaves and guards who were executed for failing to protect their masters as mentioned by his mother only caused a slight ripple in his heart, which was then overwhelmed by the joy that followed, which seemed to be the noble status of his original body.
It seems that his family should be unusual.
Gu Yuanming thought happily.
If this is really ancient times, then the identity he traveled through is undoubtedly rich or noble.
But when Gu Yuanming was led by his servants through the garden the next day, he stared in amazement at the phoenixes and exotic beasts raised there. In a quick glance, he even saw a winged Pegasus leisurely eating grass. The grass was no ordinary grass either, as its leaves shone with a sparkling light.
Gu Yuan realized that he had not traveled to ancient times, but to another world with extraordinary powers.
After fantasizing about the joy of becoming the king of another world, fear soon came over me.
Gu Yuan knew his own worth very well. He was just an ordinary person in his previous life, and nothing good could come of him in this dangerous alien world.
But looking at the magnificent palace complex this family has, it must be a powerful and wealthy family, and they will definitely provide protection for the younger generations in the family.
But Gu Yuanming was unwilling to give up.
He didn't want to live a mediocre life again.
He had read many novels in his previous life, many of which were stories about time travelers who became powerful and ruled the world. As a time traveler, if he could not make a career in this world, what was the point of traveling through time?
How can a real man be depressed and live under someone else's control for long?
Gu Yuanming suddenly felt a sense of heroism to conquer the world. He dismissed his servants, paced around the room, and thought hard.
During this period of time, through indirect inquiries after falling into the water and losing his memory, Gu Yuanming finally figured out the identity of his original body.
The original body was a direct descendant of the ancient clan's main line, ranking fifth in this generation. His talent was not top-notch, but it was above average, and he was loved by his parents. However, this was not what Gu Yuanming had expected.
He was not satisfied with just being an above-average player.
What to do? His talent is not the best in the clan. How can he suppress others and get all the resources in the clan?
Gu Yuanming couldn't help but gnaw his thumb anxiously. A big hand gently stirred the torrent of time, and an invisible flash of inspiration suddenly flashed through his mind.
Suddenly, Gu Yuanming remembered the same setting in many novels he had read in his previous life. As a time traveler, the legendary golden finger was a must.
Speaking of Goldfinger, the first thing that comes to mind is...
"System, are you there?"
Gu Yuanming asked tentatively.
One second passed, two seconds... just when Gu Yuanming could no longer contain his disappointment.
"Ding, qualified host detected, attempting to bind... Binding successful. Hello host, I am your exclusive system number 211."
Gu Yuanming was overjoyed. He knew that he was indeed the protagonist of this world!
He lowered his voice, fearing that others would hear him: "System, what can you do?"
"Beep, host, we can communicate directly within the sea of consciousness. As long as the host completes the task, I can help the host change his fate, seize the talents and luck of others, and gather them into the host."
“Okay, okay, okay!”
Gu Yuanming was ecstatic. This was exactly what he had hoped for, to seize the talents of others and achieve an unrivaled feat.
"Ding, now issuing the first task, obtain the true blood of the Pixiu and successfully complete the first body training."
