Who is your master?
"What is a Master?"
"..."
Lou Munan looked at Gongsun Yu with a puzzled expression. He had lost his childhood memories and didn't even know who he was.
For years, he had lived alone in the mountains, accompanied only by mindless, ferocious beasts. Even when he encountered humans, there was almost no communication; they would immediately begin fighting. What was a disciple? What was a master? He truly didn't know.
He didn't even know what parents were; he was more like a wild beast now.
Gongsun Yu did not kill Lou Munan. Instead, he adopted Lou Munan as his godson and brought him back to the Gongsun family.
Ayao was utterly shocked by what she saw.
"He...he actually adopted Lou Munan as his godson!" A Yao looked at the Black Nest Master beside her in shock.
"When Gongsun Yu saw him back then, he thought of his own child who had died young, and he also admired the boy's talent, so he took him back to the Gongsun family and adopted him as his son. How ironic! This applies to both Lou Munan and Gongsun Yu," said the Lord of the Black Nest.
Thus, Lou Munan became the young master of the Gongsun family.
After washing and dressing, he donned magnificent robes, his stunning appearance captivating all who beheld him. However, his behavior remained that of a wild beast; he ate with extreme rudeness and utter lack of manners. Gongsun Yu didn't mind, simply finding someone to patiently instruct him. But Lou Munan was extremely difficult to communicate with, and it was common for him to chase away the etiquette instructors.
Those people complained to Gongsun Yu, but Gongsun Yu just smiled.
Petals fell in profusion, floating on the water's surface.
Inside the palace pavilion, a young man in a purple robe was wolfing down a box of pastries. Although his eating manners were unseemly, his appearance was strikingly handsome. Beside him sat a refined-looking middle-aged man, appearing to be around thirty years old, dressed in a moon-white robe, smiling as he watched the young man.
"You are my child now, and I should give you a name. What name should I give you?"
The boy seemed not to hear him and continued to eat voraciously, his mouth surrounded by crumbs of pastry.
"Gongsun, how about the name Gongsun Qi?" Gongsun Yu asked.
The boy just ate like crazy.
“If you have no objections, then you can use this name from now on,” Gongsun Yu said.
The boy suddenly stopped wolfing down his food and looked at Gongsun Yu, saying, "Xiao Nan."
Gongsun Yu looked into his golden eyes: "Xiao Nan?"
The boy pointed to himself: "Xiao Nan."
He couldn't remember anything except that someone had called him "Xiao Nan," but he didn't remember who it was; he just felt that he should be called that.
"Xiao Nan, Xiao Nan, you want this name. Alright, Gongsun Nan, from now on you will be called Gongsun Nan," Gongsun Yu said with a smile.
And so, Lou Munan became Gongsun Nan.
Under Gongsun Yu's tutelage, he quickly transformed from a wild beast into a noble young master. He was extremely intelligent and learned everything very fast, and Gongsun Yu felt a great sense of accomplishment in teaching him. The two of them seemed to have truly become father and son.
Everyone has forgotten that Gongsun Yu once had a disciple, and the Gongsun family has also forgotten that their previous young master was named Gongsun Zhan. All that everyone knows is that Gongsun Yu had a son named Gongsun Nan, who was exceptionally talented and could be called a monster.
Three hundred years passed quickly. Lou Munan, who was over three hundred years old, looked like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy. He was tall and had an exceptionally handsome appearance. Anyone who saw him was amazed by his good looks and even more shocked by his cultivation level. Even though he had not specially cultivated, his cultivation level had already skyrocketed to the Immortal King Realm.
Gongsun Yu instructed him to suppress his cultivation to the Golden Immortal realm, but even so, in the eyes of the world, he was already a monster.
A monster with terrifyingly high aptitude.
Ayao felt a pang of jealousy.
Who exactly is Lou Munan?! Even if she could turn back time and cultivate twice, she wouldn't be as exaggerated as him. It's truly infuriating to compare oneself to others. She then looked at the Lord of the Black Nest beside her. He was a clone of Lou Munan's clone, and it seemed that Lou Munan's clones and clones of clones were all Immortal Emperors... um...
Although she has only seen the Black Nest Lord and Extinction Heart Luo as Xu Fengzhi's clones so far, she is certain that the other clones must also be Immortal Emperors.
Was the Lou Munan she saw in her past life really him at his peak?
Lou Munan lived a very carefree life in the Gongsun family, and Gongsun Yu treated him like his own son. However, he was naturally unrestrained and often ignored what Gongsun Yu said. But judging from his interactions with Gongsun Yu, it wasn't that he didn't see Gongsun Yu as a father figure; he just didn't like listening to his nagging.
As soon as Gongsun Yu went into seclusion, he abandoned the elders who followed him and went outside alone.
Over three hundred years old—for mortals, countless dynasties may have changed, but for immortals, they are still very young.
The young Lou Munan, oh no, he should be called Gongsun Nan now. Gongsun Nan roamed around everywhere. He was originally lawless and unruly. He was somewhat restrained in the Gongsun family, but without Gongsun Yu's control, he became even more arrogant and self-centered. He dared to go anywhere and confront anyone head-on.
As Ayao watched him challenge masters from various races and win battle after battle, he quickly became famous throughout the seven primordial realms.
On the ground, a stunningly handsome young man dressed in black stood amidst a sea of flowers, his long black hair dancing in the wind. He had a jade-like face, sharp golden eyes, and an imposing presence, his young face filled with arrogance and haughtiness.
Standing opposite the boy in black was a boy in white. The boy in white looked to be about the same age as the boy in black, around seventeen or eighteen years old. His long silver hair fell down his back, and his heterochromatic eyes were clear and clean. His eyebrows, eyes, nose, and lips were exquisitely beautiful. He was elegant and refined, and his demeanor was in no way inferior to that of the boy in black.
"Are you Gongsun Nan?" the white-robed youth asked.
“That’s right. And who are you?” Gongsun Nan, with a blade of grass between his teeth, tilted his head slightly as he looked at the white-robed youth opposite him.
The young man in white said, "I am the Crown Prince of the Celestial Race, and my name is Jingxin Wuchen."
Looking at the white-robed youth, A Yao felt that this prince of the Celestial Race resembled Luo Bai. Although their features were different, he gave off a similar aura. Moreover, he was equally handsome, without a single flaw.
Celestial Race, Celestial Race...
One of the overlords of ancient times, she disappeared into the river of time like the Golden Crow clan. It is said that all members of the Celestial Race are incomparably beautiful, so the phrase "astoundingly beautiful" is often used to describe someone's stunning appearance throughout the myriad realms. But by her generation, the Celestial Race had long since vanished.
"Crown Prince of the Celestial Race, what do you want with me?" Gongsun Nan glared at the heterochromatic-eyed boy opposite him, his tone unfriendly.
"I heard that you defeated the Holy Son of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan, and the Holy Maiden of the Wood Spirit Clan was also made to cry by you. The Little Gun King of the Fighting God Palace, Yue Zheng of the Azure Cloud Sect, Xuan Ying of the Qilin Clan, and Qing Xuanzi of the Phoenix Clan were all defeated by you. I also want to have a match with you," Jingxin Wuchen said with a smile.
His smile was as gentle and refined as Luo Bai's, but if he were truly as handsome as he appeared, he wouldn't have traveled all this way to fight someone.
