After returning to the house next door from the cemetery, the three brothers of the Ren family sat together to discuss future plans. Except for the third brother Ren Feifan who was still sniffling, Ren Woxing and Ren Changsheng had calmed down.
Ren Changsheng: "Brother, you have followed Dad to the market in the town at the foot of the mountain before, right?"
Ren Woxing: “Well, what’s wrong?”
Ren Changsheng: "Now that we have inherited knowledge, we know that the death of our family was due to the outbreak of the curse of the champion bloodline. But according to the inheritance of our ancestors, Emperor Guangwu's original purpose was to preserve the cultivation method through the champion bloodline that could "inherit knowledge", so Emperor Guangwu also sealed our bloodline to only preserve the function of inheriting knowledge."
"Back then, Champion Marquis did not study or practice, yet he was invincible in the world at the age of twenty, and was well versed in astronomy, geography, divination, and planning. This was because he inherited the knowledge passed down by generations of Huo family monks, and was born with top-notch comprehension and talent."
“Now that the spirit veins have revived, the heroes of the world have no cultivation techniques at all. Therefore, even if we don’t have the champion bloodline, we can still become great cultivators with the techniques to suppress the world and help restore the Han Dynasty. At the same time, all places will have to slow down their pace because of the revived demons, giving us time to assist the Han Dynasty.”
"When the Han Dynasty is restored, we will eliminate the demons and help the Han Dynasty suppress the spiritual veins. When the spiritual veins are quiet, our Ren family will become mortals and continue to hide our identities..."
"According to the inherited knowledge, our Ren family has not violated any of the shackles, so how could the champion bloodline be triggered?"
Ren Woxing: “…That means we violated the rules.”
Ren Changsheng: "Violated? How is that possible? We have never thought about rebelling against the Han Dynasty and not destroying the demons?"
Ren Woxing: "Then...what if the Han bloodline has been cut off?"
Ren Changsheng was stunned: "...Has it been cut off?"
Ren Woxing: "I don't know. The Yellow Turban Rebellion happened before, and the world was in chaos. Recently, I heard that the 18 princes formed the Guandong Army to fight against Dong Zhuo who held the emperor hostage... The world is in chaos. But the Han emperor is said to still be there."
Ren Changsheng: "Then..."
Ren Woxing: "Just because the Han emperor is still alive doesn't mean the bloodline of Emperor Guangwu is still there."
The two were silent for a while, with only Ren Feifan's sobbing remaining in the screen. Ren Suo, who was still watching the plot, raised his eyebrows - so explosive, Liu Xie in this world view is not of orthodox bloodline?
Maybe it's not just Liu Xie. There was no DNA testing technology in the past, so who knows... Oh, your circle is so messed up.
"That's the only reason." The second brother Ren Changsheng sighed and said, "Emperor Guangwu planned everything during his lifetime, but after his death he still couldn't overcome the will of the people..."
Ren Woxing said: "Fortunately, although Emperor Guangwu did not hesitate to cut off the spiritual veins and cultivation inheritance in order to ensure the longevity of the Han Dynasty, and even laid shackles to threaten descendants like me who have the champion bloodline, he also pointed out a way out for our family."
Ren Changsheng smiled bitterly: "Brother, if you think fighting with the elves is a way to survive..."
Ren Woxing said: "But second brother, you know, we didn't break free from the shackles at all, the shackles became stronger instead."
"We still have a mission. Emperor Guangwu not only transformed the bloodline, but we who were born from the bloodline were unable to escape the moment the bloodline awakened."
"Even if we have reason, when we meet the descendants of Emperor Guangwu, we will still be loyal to them without hesitation; when we meet demons and monsters, we will still kill them at all costs; when we meet elves... we will also be eager to continue our bloodline."
Ren Feifan, who had been crying, finally stopped. He looked at his two brothers and asked in confusion, "What does it mean to have sex with elves?"
Ren Changsheng looked at his third brother helplessly and said, "You can just recall the inherited knowledge and ask about it... Alas."
"Marquis Guanjun once said, 'How can I have a family if the Xiongnu are not destroyed?' People at that time thought he wanted to start a family after destroying the Xiongnu demons, but in fact, the curse of the champion bloodline will spread to his partner."
"Any person of the opposite sex who has sex with the Champion Bloodline will have their spiritual energy absorbed by the Champion Bloodline, and will turn into a dried corpse and die overnight. Once the Champion Bloodline is awakened, not only will they only live to the age of 24, but they will also be unable to continue their bloodline."
"Back then, Emperor Guangwu also found our ancestors through the descendants of Huo Yu, the brother of Marquis Guanjun. He used some means to awaken our ancestors' Champion bloodline and then sealed it. That's why our ancestors were able to have children with ordinary people."
Ren Feifan was stunned and asked, "This, does this mean that I can't be married to Xiao Cui whom I met at the market last time?"
"You can't marry anyone." Ren Changsheng said, "Otherwise, on your wedding night, your wife will turn into a dry corpse in front of you."
Ren Feifan burst into tears again, "I'm going to be a bachelor! I feel so sorry for my parents... I'm going to have no descendants..."
Ren Woxing patted his third brother on the shoulder and said, "You don't have to worry too much... We can't be husband and wife with humans, but Emperor Guangwu discovered that there are other creatures in this world who can bear the blood of the champion."
"Elves are mountain spirits and earth spirits. Any pure elves who have never harmed humans and are born and raised by nature can live in peace with us. We can communicate with elves and have offspring, even if this will consume a lot of our vitality... Although most elves have no emotions, we can trade with them."
Ren Feifan wiped away his tears: "So I won't be extinct?"
"No, no." Ren Woxing said: "Our Ren family will definitely continue! We will wait until the return of a unified dynasty. At that time, we will offer the method of sealing the spirit veins to eradicate the birth of demons and the curse of blood... We will never perish."
The second brother Ren Changsheng smiled bitterly and said, "Brother, our descendants will definitely resent you."
"This is our fate... Let them hate us." Ren Woxing laughed bitterly: "After accepting the inherited knowledge, I no longer know whether this is due to the emotions caused by the shackles of Emperor Guangwu, or whether I am infected by the will of the Champion Marquis to defend the world and kill all the demons."
"They will surely step over my corpse, cleanse the demons of time, and witness the birth of a peaceful and prosperous era... and usher in a day when the spirit veins are quiet and the bloodlines are dormant."
"This is our mission, our responsibility to pass on the orthodox tradition, and the curse of the Guangwu shackles. We are born with destiny and die with destiny..."
At this point, the plot animation has been completely played, and the game will officially begin next.
The picture shows the house that the Ren family had just discussed. It is actually just a wooden house. The perspective is like sitting in the main seat, and you can see two rows of chairs and the yard outside the door at a glance.
The second brother, Ren Changsheng, who looks elegant, is located at the bottom right of the screen. He seems to be acting as a guide for the game, saying:
"Now, big brother, you are the head of our Ren family."
"At present, our strength is still very weak, and the outside world is in chaos. We should practice first and have a certain level of strength before we can do other things."
Then the "Practice" option appeared in the list on the left. After clicking it, the game popped up and displayed: "Please select the direction of practice for the next season."
"You have a total of 3 action points to allocate."
"The training items are: attack, defense, reconnaissance, movement, treatment, and management."
Action point 3. There are 3 people in the Ren family now. Is it related to the number of people?
Ren Suo made a random choice, and Ren Changsheng said, "Okay, in the coming autumn, the three of us brothers will study offensive spells together."
Are you going to study magic right away? Don't you need to practice?
Ren Suo twitched the corner of his mouth, and then saw that the timeline in the upper left corner changed from the autumn of 190 AD to the winter of 190 AD, and the big trees in the yard outside the house were also bare, and his second brother Ren Changsheng was wearing several layers of clothes - there were patches on his clothes.
The screen displayed: "After training, you have learned more attack spells and your attack ability has improved!"
"Ren Woxing has learned the art of wielding a sword!"
"Ren Changsheng has learned the art of fire magic!"
"Ren Feifan has learned the art of spearmanship!"
Ren Changsheng: "Master, a guest has arrived!"
Suddenly, a girl in brown robe, with black hair and black eyes appeared from outside the door.
The girl said: "I am the spirit of Taibai Plain. I am asking the immortal to help me kill the demon soldiers and ghosts that have spread to Taibai Plain."
Ren Woxing: "What is your origin? What are the demon soldiers and ghost generals?"
Taibaiyuan: "You don't have to hide it, Immortal. The three Immortals are young, but their spiritual veins have been revived and their cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds, and they are great immortals of the time. The demon soldiers and ghost generals are murderous evil spirits that were born from the corpses and souls of the battlefield of Hulao Pass in the east, where resentment and death gathered. Wherever they pass, no grass grows, and wherever they stay, disasters will surely occur. Now they have entered the Taibaiyuan area, not far from the immortals, so I came to ask the immortals to take action."
Ren Changsheng, who served as a think tank, asked, "You are a land spirit? Then what is the benefit of us helping you drive away the demon soldiers and ghost generals?"
Tai Baiyuan was a little surprised: "Before the spiritual vein was quiet, I remember that slaying demons and eliminating evil was the duty of a cultivator... But I am just an earth spirit, sleeping for a long time, and only woke up because of the revival of the spiritual vein. I really have nothing to give to the immortal..."
Ren Changsheng seemed to be the villain, and said with a smile: "Our family has a method of spiritual communication, which allows us to have sex with spirits and give birth to offspring."
