"Run!"
Under the intense heat, Zhou Mu's voice was already somewhat hoarse.
My heart is filled with despair.
It doesn't matter if he dies, but Xiao Jiu absolutely cannot have any problems.
In the extreme heat, even breathing becomes a torment.
"No……"
As the flames grew infinitely larger in his eye sockets, Zhou Mu could do nothing; at this moment, he was utterly despondent.
Ye Mujiu hugged Zhou Mu tightly from behind.
His face had a gentle expression.
There was no fear in his clear eyes.
boom
The flames are coming.
"sorry……"
His voice was hoarse, and hot breath escaped from his throat as he spoke.
He slowly closed his eyes, enduring the excruciating pain, and with great difficulty turned around, hugging Ye Mujiu tightly.
"bite!"
Just then.
A crisp sound rang in Zhou Mu's mind.
Immediately afterwards, a mechanical sound rang out.
[System Activation]
[Binding to host...]
[Binding complete.]
[Congratulations, host, on obtaining the "Invincible Lottery" system.]
[Start your first lucky draw.]
A roulette wheel appeared in front of Zhou Mu, with names on it, all written in a profound and obscure script that was difficult to understand.
After the system's cold voice ended, the roulette wheel began to spin slowly.
As the pointer continued to spin, it finally stopped in front of an incomprehensible character.
Just then, those characters emitted a fierce golden light.
Until it swallows the entire roulette wheel.
Then, a majestic voice rang out.
"Pangu".
As the voice faded, an aura from the ancient wilderness swept out, causing the earth to crack inch by inch, and the once bright sky to darken considerably.
Rumble rumble
Thunderclaps resounded throughout.
The man appeared out of thin air in mid-air.
Strong muscles, like crisscrossing mountain peaks, spread across the man's body, while golden patterns enveloped his entire body.
In his right hand was a giant axe, the tip of which was not sharp; from a distance, it looked as if it were covered with a layer of rust.
After this person appeared, the high temperature in this area dropped sharply, and the terrifying flames vanished without a trace.
Zhou Mu was taken aback for a moment, then a smile appeared on his face.
He looked up at the figure in mid-air, his heart filled with uncontrollable joy.
The people this system provides are really good at using it.
Ye Mujiu also looked up curiously, "Brother Mu, who is he?"
Zhou Mu nodded and said with a smile, "Pangu."
Pangu, the first god of ancient times.
No one can match him.
As for why Pangu appeared here, Ye Mujiu didn't ask, and Zhou Mu didn't explain in detail either.
Anyway, the immediate crisis has been resolved.
Zhou Mu also needed to make plans for what was to come.
First, the characters "中州" (Zhongzhou) in front of the main hall gate were replaced with "周府" (Zhou Mansion).
After some renovations, the main hall gradually regained some of its former appearance.
However, the expansion of the Zhou family cannot rely solely on Pangu; Zhou Mu also needs to find some former deities to bring out.
Clearly, those gods as powerful as those from the time of Pangu would be a good choice.
But Zhou Mu tried several times, and that damned system didn't respond at all.
In the end, they had no choice but to give up.
...
Thanks to Zhou Mu's efforts, the Zhou family mansion has begun to take shape.
At least the main hall can withstand wind and rain.
In addition, there are two rooms that can provide shelter from the wind and rain.
This is good news.
Standing at the mountain gate, Zhou Mu looked down at the mountains, his heart filled with pride, and his dark eyes held a hidden ambition.
In his previous life, it took him ten years to change the name of Zhongzhou to Zhoufu, but now, he accomplished this feat worthy of being recorded in history in just a few days.
"Brother Mu..."
Ye Mujiu's voice came from behind.
Zhou Mu turned around, his expression had returned to normal. At this moment, Ye Mujiu walked over slowly, yawning softly and sweetly. Her unintentional laziness exuded a deadly allure.
A few strands of bangs casually drifted across her forehead, exuding a慵懒 (yōnglǎn, meaning lazy or languid) yet subtle charm.
Zhou Mu swallowed hard, his eyes darkening slightly. Ye Mujiu probably had no idea how alluring her expression was to men. She yawned lazily, looked up at Zhou Mu listlessly, and said, "Brother Mu, when are we leaving?"
"Leave?" Zhou Mu was somewhat taken aback.
Ye Mujiu, as if he was already used to it, continued, "The Xuantian Sect group will arrive in a couple of days. If we don't leave now, we won't be able to leave later."
Only then did Zhou Mu realize what was happening.
The Xuantian Sect that Ye Mujiu mentioned was the number one enemy of Zhongzhou. When Zhongzhou was still powerful, it sent many experts to Zhongzhou to learn under the guise of exchange.
The leader of Zhongzhou at the time was an honest man who had no suspicion of the weak Xuantian Sect and took out all his magical treasures and secret manuals.
As a result, in just five years, the Xuantian Sect rose from a low-ranking sect to a first-class power in the Desolate Heaven Domain, second only to the Central State and the Sword God Palace, and ranked third alongside the old power, the Four Seas Pavilion.
As the saying goes, a small favor can breed resentment, but a large favor can breed enmity. In the end, Zhongzhou raised a thankless wretch who took advantage of the situation when the Sword God Temple launched a major attack on Zhongzhou, adding fuel to the fire of Zhongzhou's destruction.
It can be said that if Xuantian Sect hadn't stabbed Zhongzhou in the back at a crucial moment, even if the Sword God Palace had ultimately destroyed Zhongzhou, it would have suffered severe damage and its vitality would have been greatly diminished.
Thinking of this, Zhou Mu's eyes slowly darkened.
