"Who are you?"
The handsome young man excitedly said, "I'm your uncle! My name is Luo Hanyu, and your father's name is Luo Hansheng, right? And your name is Luo Shuangbai, right?"
"Yes." Luo Shuangbai nodded slightly.
"Great, great! Our Luo family is saved!"
Luo Hanyu became more and more excited and shouted loudly outside.
"First Elder, Third Elder, come quickly! Shuangbai is back! Big Brother and Sister Du Wan's child is back!"
"The child is back? Let me see, let me see."
"Didn't they say that the child was missing? How could he come back?"
Soon, two old men with white hair and youthful faces ran in and surrounded Luo Shuangbai, examining him from head to toe.
"They look so much alike! They are indeed Han Sheng and Du Wan's child."
"Great, great, the hope of our Luo family is back!"
Seeing them like this, Luo Shuangbai couldn't help but take a step back.
How could he be their hope? He himself was still struggling in the mire, unable to even save himself, so how could he save others?
Seeing him like this, the two elders quickly said, "Don't be afraid, child. We won't force you right now. We all know you are still young and need to grow."
"This isn't the place to talk. Would you mind walking with us to the ancestral hall? Your parents' tablets are there, too."
Luo Shuangbai originally wanted to refuse, but when he heard his parents agreed.
The Great Elder said hello to the Wanjian Sect nearby and left with Luo Shuangbai.
The most heavily guarded place of the Luo family is their ancestral hall, where tablets of all the deceased members of the Luo family are placed, including Luo Shuangbai's parents.
Above their tablets, there is a portrait of the couple.
When Luo Shuangbai saw the portrait, she couldn't help but shed tears.
The Great Elder sighed softly upon seeing this. "When the news of your parents' death reached the Luo family, we were all very sad and shocked. But we didn't expect to hear about your disappearance later. We all thought you had..."
"Let's not talk about this anymore. I'm glad you're okay. We're relieved if you're okay."
Luo Shuangbai could clearly see the changes in their expressions, such as the handsome young man who claimed to be his uncle. His face was originally pale and lifeless, but he immediately regained his vitality after confirming his identity.
The same was true for other members of the Luo family. After hearing his name, it was as if they saw hope.
Luo Shuangbai was almost breathless from being looked at like that. He said with difficulty, "Why do you say I am your hope?"
"Because you are it! Only you can save our Luo family!"
The Great Elder briefly recounted the Luo family's past, then excitedly said, "Back then, that Tianji Sect elder said, if one day, our Luo family could produce a child with exceptional talent and the best furnace-like physique."
"As long as that child can control his desires and escape his fate of becoming a furnace, we can find a way to lift the curse on the entire Luo family."
"For thousands of years, our Luo family has prayed day and night, risking all kinds of danger to go to the realm to exterminate the horned demons and accumulate merit, just to welcome a child like this."
"Shuangbai, you are that child!"
"You should be aware of how outstanding your cultivation talent is. The most important thing is that you have the body of Tianyin Phoenix Marrow!"
"We will be disturbed by the unbearable desires that come with the furnace cauldron constitution, but you won't."
"We will be forcibly taken, but you won't."
"As long as you can ascend to the upper realm cleanly and honestly, you will be able to find a way to lift the curse!"
Clean? Clean?
Luo Shuangbai looked at the other person in disbelief, and then thought of what the system asked him to do, his face suddenly turned pale and he broke out in a cold sweat.
"What's wrong?" The Great Elder looked at him with concern. "Is there something wrong with your body?"
"That shouldn't be the case. We've confirmed your identity since you were born."
"In order to protect you and let you grow up safely, all the luck of our Luo family has been transferred to you. It should be able to protect you."
Luo Shuangbai was even more astonished: "You transferred all the luck onto me?"
The Great Elder said, "Even if the seven major sects take turns guarding it, isn't it a kind of good fortune that a family can be passed down to this day?"
"What's more, our Luo family is blessed by the ancient tree, which is a unique advantage."
"This luck is indeed not much when it is distributed to one person, but when it is all added together, it is more than enough to protect just one person."
"What's more, you have such talent and physique, which is the result of the blessing of heaven, and naturally you have a certain kind of luck."
The Luo family felt that the combination of destiny and family luck was a double guarantee, so Luo Shuangbai should not encounter any accidents.
But no one expected that Luo Shuangbai had been targeted since he was born, and later his parents, who could have protected him and allowed him to grow up safely, also passed away unexpectedly.
Luo Shuangbai walked out of the Luo family ancestral hall in a daze, avoiding all the disciples of the Wanjian Sect along the way, and left the area where the ancient tree was. He leaned against a tree and began to vomit.
So disgusting...
He thought about the system's plan for him and felt it was truly disgusting.
He understood his own character. Eager to become stronger, he would throw aside all sense of shame and get deeper and deeper into the trap once he gained benefits from dual cultivation.
If he had not been sentenced to two years of confinement, and if the elders had not kept a close watch on him during these two years, he would have definitely been instigated by the system and had relationships with the people it had picked out.
By then, there would be no turning back for him, and the Luo family would have completely lost hope.
But could he turn back now? Would there be hope for the Luo family?
Luo Shuangbai still felt that there was no answer.
But facing those pairs of eyes sparkling with hope, he didn't dare to say it.
Before meeting the Luo family, he could only regard them as strangers and think they were cowardly and useless.
But after seeing people, he no longer had such thoughts.
The Luo family members also have their own unique appearances. Looking at those faces that are somewhat similar to his parents, Luo Shuangbai deeply realized that these are his clansmen.
These were the people his parents had been stationed in the realm for several years hoping to protect.
Every time he killed a horned demon in the realm, he would gain corresponding contribution points, which could be exchanged for a lot of supplies. After his parents exchanged for supplies, they would send half back to the Luo family.
In my father's heart, the Luo family's land is the most beautiful place in the world. Every blade of grass, every tree, every person and every bird there is worthy of his concern and worthy of his careful maintenance.
Luo Shuangbai didn't understand this kind of psychology before, and in fact he still doesn't understand it now, but he suddenly thought of a conversation he had with his father when he was a child.
"Dad, there are so many things in there that you can use, why are you giving it away?"
"Because Daddy's family can use it too. They also need to become stronger."
"Does Daddy have other family members? Why has Shuang'er never seen them? Why don't they come to see Daddy?"
"Because they will be in danger if they come out! They gave their most precious things to Shuang'er, so they can't protect themselves and can't come out."
So the most precious thing is the Luo family's fortune?
