Su Yang knew he was dead, and after death he arrived in a pitch-black world, which he thought was the underworld.
However, in that pitch-black world, a check-in button would pop up from time to time. Each time he checked in, it would remind him of what he had gained. Over time, he stopped caring. After all, he was already dead, so he just treated it as waiting in line for reincarnation.
And this contract lasted for a thousand years.
In short, Su Yang himself didn't know how long he had been signing in. He just mechanically signed in, and then went to sleep. He didn't even realize how much time had passed until today when he finally opened his eyes and found this scene.
"bite!"
"Host's reincarnation successful! Sign-in rewards have been issued, please check!"
Check your message?
What is it?
"Ding! Skill 'Sword Drawing Stance' proficiency level increased to 999!"
"Ding! Obtained Heaven-Rank Martial Skill: Heavenly Golden Eye!"
"Ding! Obtained a Heaven-level magic weapon: Crimson Dragon Sword!"
"bite!……"
"Ding! After accumulating 1,000 years of check-ins, you have obtained a divine treasure: the Purple Gold Pagoda!"
A mountain of information lay before Su Yang, like a holographic information panel. It was only then that Su Yang came to his senses.
He didn't reincarnate, he was reborn!
"Could this be... my 'cheat code'?"
Su Yang had experienced countless revolving lanterns in this thousand-year dream, and the scene before him seemed somewhat familiar.
However, this time the sense of substance...
Did he really reincarnate?!
"Ancestor?"
Just as Su Yang was about to continue studying what he had gained from signing in, everyone below was staring at him, who hadn't made a move.
Seeing this, Su Yang didn't know what to say, so he just coughed and glanced down.
Soon, he noticed a girl.
"Xue'er?"
Su Yang was somewhat surprised because he saw a very familiar figure, and he wouldn't mistake him even if he had changed his clothes!
His sister, Su Xue!
Su Yang slowly walked down and helped Su Lingxue, who had fallen to the ground, up from among the crowd, as if he had seen his only relative.
At this moment, the elders around looked at each other with very strange eyes, especially the First Elder, whose expression was quite interesting!
Su Lingxue was also somewhat flattered. After being helped up, she immediately knelt down and said, "Please forgive us, Ancestor! We juniors did not mean to disturb you. Please forgive us!"
Disturbance?
Su Yang found it strange.
However, he quickly realized that the surroundings were in complete disarray, Su Lingxue had signs of being oppressed, and the old man in blue robes behind him was staring at him menacingly.
He understood.
Su Yang took a few steps, his gaze sweeping over everyone: "I can forgive and forget what you did today. But there's one thing I must remind you all of."
"She's under my protection!"
As Su Yang uttered his last words, a sharp gust of wind instantly swept through the entire ancestral hall from beneath his feet!
Upon seeing this, all the elders gasped in shock, repeatedly kowtowing and bowing their heads to the ground, as if fearing Su Yang's wrath. Even the Grand Elder was greatly alarmed, and he himself was so intimidated that he took two steps back!
Most importantly, he could sense that this oppressive feeling did not come from strong internal energy, but was simply based on that aura, which was enough to make them submit!
Could it be... that this is really the legendary patriarch of the Su family?
Su Lingxue was somewhat incredulous. She had originally prepared for the worst, but she never expected that the Su family patriarch would suddenly appear and protect her. Could it be that her ancestors had appeared to protect her?
At this moment, Su Yang slowly walked to Su Lingxue's side: "If you have nothing else to do, show me the world now."
After saying that, Su Yang picked up the sword and slowly walked out of the ancestral hall.
Su Lingxue hesitated for a moment, then immediately followed. The others remained there, their hearts filled with turmoil, unable to calm down for a long time. Only after Su Yang had walked far away did they dare to raise their heads and gaze at his retreating figure, their minds still entangled with many questions.
"Elder, is that... is that person really our Su family's ancestor?"
A middle-aged man asked, his voice trembling.
The elder frowned deeply, shaking his head and nodding at the same time.
In fact, he couldn't explain it either, but he did have a question: why couldn't he sense even a trace of true energy from that oppressive aura just now? Even if Su Yang suppressed it perfectly, surely he could have detected at least a trace of true energy?
However, he dared not question it, because what he had seen and heard today was too unbelievable, and he needed to be more cautious!
"You need not say more, just proceed according to normal order," the Grand Elder said. "My grandson will be back soon, and we will discuss it then. As for the Ancestor... we will decide on him tomorrow."
"good."
Everyone nodded and dispersed.
The Grand Elder, however, lingered there for a long time. He stared at the large empty space, his brow furrowed, seemingly lost in thought.
...
Scattered starlight filled the sky as Su Yang slowly closed his eyes.
A thousand years is a very long time for anyone. But for Su Yang, it was both long and short.
For the past thousand years, besides signing in, he has been dreaming. He dreamed that he had traveled to countless worlds and experienced dozens of lives. He dreamed that he was in a peaceful world, or in a war-torn era, or in a cultivation world, etc. Sometimes even he did not know which was real and which was fake until he came out today.
He probably knew that Su Lingxue in front of him was not his sister, but only someone who looked extremely similar. However, he was already very content that God had allowed him to find a sense of familiarity in this world.
A thousand-year-old dream seems vivid in his mind, yet it also seems to have vanished in an instant. Countless dreams have shaped him into who he is today.
"What's your name?" Su Yang asked without turning his head.
ah?
Su Lingxue walked behind, paused for a moment, and then said, "My name is Su Lingxue."
“Su Lingxue…”
Su Yang murmured to himself, which did sound quite similar to his sister's name.
He smiled, turned his head and said, "Don't worry, from today onwards, no one in the Su family will dare to touch you."
Su Lingxue raised her head, her clear eyes filled with confusion as she asked, "Ancestor... why are you so kind to me alone?"
Su Yang said calmly, "Because you look a lot like my sister."
As he spoke, Su Yang paused, shook his head, and continued, "No, you are my sister, you just don't remember."
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Yang sat down on the steps to the side, and Su Lingxue followed suit.
She just didn't understand what Su Yang meant by those words.
“My name is Su Yang. You don’t need to call me Ancestor. You can call me Brother,” Su Yang said.
Su Lingxue hesitated for a moment before finally saying, "Brother..."
Su Yang smiled faintly: "I won't force you, but on another note, could you tell me about the order of this world? That is... the cultivation system and such."
Cultivation system?
After thinking for a while, Su Lingxue explained the situation to Su Yang in detail.
