When the two finally separated, Lin Zao felt a tingling sensation on her lips and unconsciously licked them.
When she realized what was happening, a blush instantly spread across her face.
Tang Jian's eyes darkened at the sight, and he almost couldn't resist punishing her on the spot!
If it weren't for the wrong time of day...
As if sensing the danger in Tang Jian's eyes, Lin Zao quickly released her grip on him and took a few steps away.
She looked at him warily. "Don't you want to know about my past?"
Tang Jian regretfully withdrew his gaze, which had been almost consuming him, and coughed lightly:
"Please speak, Madam."
"According to the timeline of your world, I could be considered to have come from 1000 years in the future!"
Tang Jian's eyes widened; this was clearly beyond his expectations.
"Our world was originally peaceful, with everyone equal and advanced technology, until a devastating disaster swept across the entire world!"
"Most of them turned into mindless zombies who only knew how to eat human flesh and blood! A small number of them awakened supernatural abilities!"
At this point, Lin Zao glanced at Tang Jian.
"Some people can summon water spheres out of thin air, while others can strike lightning bolts from the ground. The five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth are the most common supernatural abilities, but there are also rarer ones such as wind, lightning, ice, and healing!"
Tang Jian listened attentively to what Lin Zao said and roughly understood the meaning of this superpower, so the Celestial Master might be an ice-type superpower user!
"What did the lady awaken?"
"What I awakened was a spatial ability, which allows me to store many things out of thin air and use them at will. All the things I took out were brought from my original world."
Tang Jian finally understood; he hadn't expected such a miraculous ability.
"I suspect that the Celestial Master also traveled from my world!"
So those people couldn't be found no matter how hard they looked, and the claim of the Celestial Race seemed more like a bluff.
After listening to Lin Zao's explanation, Tang Jian also felt that the Celestial Master and his wife came from the same place.
"I'm afraid only the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty knows about the Celestial Master!" Lin Zao sighed.
"The most important thing now is your identity; you must not reveal it in the slightest."
At least until he is strong enough to protect her!
Fortunately, he had given instructions beforehand to keep the guards away whenever they were in the room.
Tang Jian's eyes turned cold. It seemed he would have to be more careful in the future!
The Celestial Race has been around for over a thousand years, and no one has any hope left. As long as they don't do anything too obvious and the news spreads everywhere, generally no one will guess it.
The story of the celestial maiden is just one of countless folk tales that followed, and people simply listened to it as a story.
If it weren't for Lin Zao, he definitely wouldn't have believed such rumors.
After this frank conversation, Lin Zao finally felt relieved of all her worries.
Now the two are even more in sync, and even an unintentional glance between them can make people blush and their hearts race!
Lin Zao suddenly thought of King Cheng. If anyone knew that she was exceptionally capable and also knew about the Celestial Race, it would definitely be him!
"On King Cheng's side..."
Leave everything to me!
Tang Jian knew what Lin Zao was worried about. King Cheng always believed in trusting those he employed and not employing those he didn't trust.
He generally doesn't delve into the details as long as the outcome is good.
Most importantly, he was indeed a rare wise ruler who always scoffed at those unfounded legends.
This is also the main reason why he was willing to follow him and do things for him.
Of course, he wouldn't completely trust King Cheng either; he would make necessary precautions!
