Chapter 266 The Old Patriarch's Thoughts
When he looked up at the other friends, he did not show any intimacy, but nodded gently and greeted them with nobility emanating from his bones.
The little friend didn't feel ignored at all, but felt flattered instead.
The nobility emanating from Pegasus made them inexplicably feel that it was meant to be high and mighty, and in the past, it was an existence beyond their reach.
The moment the Pegasus appeared, the animals knew that the pressure came from it, so they dared not disobey at all. They were obedient and more submissive than quails.
The beam of light had long since dissipated. Without the added white light, the Pegasus had a more earthy air and no longer seemed as unattainable as a god from heaven. However, the nobility emanating from its bones could not be ignored.
Now that Xiao Feifei has been found, there are no useful clues here. Lan Shiruo prepares to pack up and leave early tomorrow morning.
The couple did not leave the task of cleaning the altar to other friends, but did it themselves.
There was a mysterious pull. When they were cleaning the altar, an invisible force wrapped around their fingertips. After a slight sting, blood dripped onto the altar at the same time. The dark altar turned blood red at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then spread throughout the entire clan territory.
In just a few breaths, the entire clan's territory turned from charred black to blood red. In the blood red, human figures appeared and disappeared, and gradually became clearer.
Everyone stared with wide eyes at the scene before them, which was changing like a passing scene, in complete disbelief.
What did they see?
The dragons and phoenixes in mythology suffered countless deaths and injuries in the catastrophe of heaven and earth.
After the catastrophe subsided, they became humans and lived happily in a happy paradise.
From ancient times to modern times to present times, every picture is very warm.
Suddenly, flames shot up into the sky. Even the images made everyone feel the pain of their flesh being burned by the raging fire. The bright smiling faces silently turned into a handful of black ash along with the ground beneath their feet.
The paradise that was once filled with laughter and joy has turned into a scorched land where no one has ever set foot, full of desolation.
Lan Shiruo and Ao Chengyi were already in tears, prostrating themselves on the ground, with crystal liquid sliding down their cheeks.
Lebao threw himself into his parents' arms. He didn't understand what he saw, but he felt very sad.
Lan Shiruo took a deep breath, "I remember it." She remembered their past, the lives that this land had nurtured, and that sad night.
Ao Chengyi wiped away his tears. Men don't cry easily. It was past his time to cry, but he couldn't control his tears. He hugged his son and daughter-in-law in his arms, "Girl, welcome home."
The little friend wiped his tears silently. Even outsiders like them could feel the tragedy of that night, let alone the family members who lived together day and night. At that time, the two ten-year-old children must have been so confused and helpless.
"Roar!" The beasts all looked up to the sky and howled, as if mourning for their deceased tribesmen.
"Welcome back, kid."
Ao Chengyi was startled, "Is that the old patriarch's voice?"
Lan Shiruo regained her memory and knew that this was the voice of the old patriarch, but how could it be?
"Grandpa, clan leader, is that you?" For the first time, Lan Shiruo spoke like a child, her voice choked with grievance and coquettishness.
"It's me, children. Grandpa is sorry for you." The old patriarch's voice was distant and old, and it came from the void.
"Grandpa, where are you? We miss you so much." She really missed him so much. She had forgotten him for too long. The two lives were separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, and it seemed as if they had to go through thousands of hardships and dangers to see each other today.
"Grandpa is now just a lingering thought, a reminder of his unfulfilled wishes. You won't be able to see him." The old patriarch sighed barely audibly. "Children, I caused you so much suffering in your last life. It was all Grandpa's fault. To prevent irreversible consequences, Grandpa can only mobilize the primordial force of our clan, condensed over ten thousand years of memories, to help you live another life and save all living beings from disaster. This primordial force was meant to help you overcome all obstacles, but now that it's been used, you'll have to rely on yourselves from now on. Children, Grandpa knows that you are all good children with strong and kind hearts. The Lan and Ao tribes have shouldered the mission of saving all living beings since ancient times. Millions of years ago, with the destruction of the Divine Beast Century, the Lan and Ao tribes exchanged their original bodies for the civilization of today's New Century, the Human Century. Now, the Human Century is suffering the same disaster as the Divine Beast Century. We only have three of you left in our two tribes. Children, you must save all living beings from disaster. If this world is destroyed, the consequences will be disastrous."
"Grandpa knows that you have suffered, and I am very sorry that I cannot accompany you. These children behind you are all good. In the last life, I only had time to find a companion for Chengyi, leaving Shiruo girl alone and suffering a lot, and also letting little Lebao suffer inhuman torture. It was grandpa who was useless. In this life, the original force allows you to better distinguish between truth and goodness, and you have all found the companions that should belong to you. Grandpa is very pleased. Pegasus is the little guy's companion animal. It has waited for him for two lifetimes. It will protect the little guy well as he grows up. Come on, kids, the future depends on you." The old voice of the old patriarch gradually faded away.
Everyone was still stunned and hadn’t come back to their senses. The little friends were thinking, it turns out they were born to be with their older brothers and sisters. They were so excited, what should they do?
The little ones were also very happy. They felt like they were born to be with their little brother Lebao. That was great.
Xiao Lebao tilted his head and asked, "What does it mean that Xiao Feifei has waited for two lifetimes?"
Ao Chengyi frowned. Last life? Two lives? So, the pain and hatred that his young wife occasionally expressed were all from her last life? What happened in her last life?
Lan Shiruo pursed her lips. She originally thought that rebirth was a gift from God to her, but it turned out to be the love of her ancestors. There is no such thing as luck without reason in the world. Some things are just rewards obtained at a terrible price. She can find suitable friends in the crowd at a glance and can better overcome difficulties. All of these are just the accumulation of billions of years of ancestors. What a deep love.
As everyone was thinking about life, the blood-red under their feet gradually dissipated, revealing not the original charred black, but dots of emerald green, and countless small sprouts were thriving.
"Puchi" Pegasus snorted to remind everyone, Master and young master, now is the best time to improve, don't miss it.
The vitality exuded by the rebirth of all things is the purest energy between heaven and earth.
Lan Shiruo came back to her senses and without time to think about anything else, she took out all the crystal cores and said, "Hurry up and feel the power of heaven and earth and absorb the crystal cores."
No matter whether it was a girl, a man, or an animal, they all woke up as if from a dream, quickly collected their minds, and immersed themselves in the warm energy.
Ao Chengyi looked deeply at his young wife. What he had missed was not just a little bit, but an entire lifetime. This life, it would never happen again.
The large team with their eyes closed did not notice that the dragon and phoenix totems in Lan Shiruo and Ao Chengyi's hands were spreading their wings and flying high, passing over every inch of the tribe's land, scattering bright red and pure blue starlight.
All kinds of birds and beasts in the forest crawled on the ground and trembled.
For a moment, the entire Cangyuan Mountains were as quiet as a chicken.
