Chapter 780: God’s Gift
"Your birthday..."
"Even if I only have one breath left, I will crawl here." There was a faint smile in his voice, and he couldn't help but raise his hand to rub Chao Chao's head.
"I celebrated your first birthday. Naturally, I should be there for your birthday every year as well."
He was referring to the time when she was the Rising Sun Sword Master.
Yes, Lu Chaochao has no father or mother.
No one in this world knows where she came from, and no one knows her past.
All Lu Chaochao knew was that when she opened her eyes, she found herself in a sea of flowers.
A breeze blew by, and the flowers swayed. Her nostrils were filled with the fragrance of flowers, and countless flowers bent as if submitting to her.
She looked up and saw monks flying on swords in the sky. In the distance, at the foot of the mountain, people were working hard to make a living.
She was like a blank sheet of paper, walking down the mountain aimlessly, full of curiosity about everything in the world.
Although she had no memory of anything, she had a hunch that she had finally woken up after a long sleep.
Somehow, she always felt that there was a pair of eyes watching her all the time.
But the other party had no ill intentions.
At night, she casually perched on the branches of the ancient tree.
But when she woke up in the morning, she was covered with several huge fallen leaves, shielding her from the wind and light.
Thinking of the past, Lu Chaochao couldn't help but squint his eyes. Being reborn as a human being, the past seemed like a dream.
The young man had his back to the moonlight, so Lu Chaochao couldn't see his expression clearly.
"Bah, bah, bah, don't talk nonsense."
"Even if you are the Heavenly Dao, you have to speak auspicious words. What do you mean you only have one breath left? You are the Heavenly Dao, so you must be equal to the Heaven! The power of words is very strong! Don't talk nonsense!" Lu Chaochao couldn't help but put her hands on her hips and glared at him.
The boy laughed softly.
"Okay, okay, may you live as long as the sky." He said the auspicious words in a compromising manner.
Lu Chaochao smiled with her eyebrows curved, holding the gift tightly and refusing to let go.
No wonder I always felt like something was missing today. Now that I’m holding the gift, I feel complete.
"Is the God Realm peaceful now? You should also show your true form less often and don't let the God Realm be aware of your presence."
"Ah... If the God Realm knew that you had developed self-awareness, I don't know how much trouble would happen. You have to protect yourself, too, okay? Don't rely on the fact that you are the Way of Heaven and are omnipresent, and be defenseless against the God Realm." Lu Chaochao kept chattering, and the little girl was extremely long-winded.
The boy listened patiently, a smile on his face, and took every word she said seriously.
"Don't fool me. If it's not convenient for you to show up, you...you shouldn't come over." Lu Chaochao glared at the boy, and he nodded without any temper.
"What's going on with today's heavy rain? Is it from the God Realm?"
The young man hesitated for a moment and nodded: "Don't worry, everything will be back to normal soon."
"Chao Chao, no matter what happens in the God Realm, don't go up there? Okay?" He stared at Lu Chao Chao and said word by word.
"The Star Lord Siming predicted that the Emperor will return soon. Hanchuan can no longer sit still."
"He might trick you into going to the higher realms. No matter what happens, you can't go there. Do you understand?"
Lu Chaochao frowned slightly: "Hmm." She neither agreed nor refused.
The young man seemed to want to say something, but a rumbling thunder sounded in the air and landed directly in the Lu family courtyard.
This bolt of lightning seemed to strike the Lu family on the head.
Everyone in the Lu family's heart was pounding.
With a loud bang, the century-old tree in the Lu family courtyard was chopped down and a fire broke out. Even heavy rain can't extinguish it...
The Lu family was a little panicked: "There's a fire!!"
The maids and servants picked up the buckets and rushed over as if by reflex. They could feel a fierce burning sensation before they got close.
"Don't get close. The thunder from the sky brings with it fire from the sky. If you get involved, it will burn everything until you die!!"
"If watering was effective, this rainstorm would have put out the fire long ago!" Ah Man stood under the corridor and couldn't help but scream in surprise. Fortunately, the maids and servants all sensed the fear and did not get close, thus avoiding a disaster.
The young man clenched his fists lightly, looked at Lu Chaochao deeply, and then disappeared.
Lu Chaochao pursed her lips, jumped off the bed and walked out the door.
The Lu family had already hurried over, and this time the thunder struck right in Lu Chaochao's yard, scaring Xu Shiyun out of her wits. She rushed over with her hair disheveled, looking very embarrassed.
"Is Chaochao okay? Is Chaochao okay?" Xu Shiyun walked up to her and pulled her around to check.
She knew about the entanglement between the God Realm and Chao Chao, and her eyelids twitched wildly when she saw the ancient tree in the yard with flames shooting up into the sky.
"It's okay, mother. Chaochao is fine." To reassure his mother, Lu Chaochao turned around.
But Xu Shiyun was still uneasy and held her hand tightly, refusing to let go.
The Lu family courtyard was struck by lightning, and Emperor Xuanping sent people to check it out overnight.
Crown Prince Xie Chengxi's face turned pale, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Chaochao was safe and sound. “I thought… I thought…” The young man’s robe was soaked, raindrops flowed down his hair, and his lips turned pale from nervousness.
Xie Chengxi didn't dare to leave, so he simply stayed at Lu's house for one night and didn't leave until dawn.
"After three days of heavy rain, the water in the moat has reached its highest level. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is worried that the dam will burst and the river water will flow back into the city, so he is in a hurry to leave the city." The attendant waited for Lu Chaochao to get up and then stepped forward to report.
Lu Chaozhao nodded in agreement and stared at the rain outside the window in a daze.
"We must not let the dam break. Although our capital city will not be affected by the disaster, what will happen to the people downstream?" The maid chatted while doing needlework.
Lu Chaochao rested his chin on his hand, and suddenly remembered his past as the Chaoyang Sword Master.
She remembered the first time she stepped into the Three Realms and the human world.
Since Wanhua woke up, she went down the mountain in a daze, but she felt cold all over and something was wrong.
After walking a few steps, she picked up a dress.
She ignored it and continued forward.
As soon as he lifted his leg, the clothes appeared in front of him again.
She squatted down helplessly and studied it for half a day, tried it on herself twice before putting it on. Two words suddenly appeared in my mind: clothes.
After going down the mountain.
Standing in front of the steamed buns shop, the vendor looked at her with a smile: "Girl, two buns?"
She stretched out her hand blankly, thanked him awkwardly, and turned to leave.
But the vendor changed his expression and said, "Why are you eating buns without paying?" He hurriedly stepped forward to stop her.
"Didn't you give this to me?" She tilted her head slightly, her tone extremely serious.
The peddler was so angry that he almost laughed: "Why would I give you buns for no reason? Why eat buns without paying!" After saying that, he snatched the buns and went back angrily.
The girl was a little confused, but not embarrassed.
He just walks around in the human world, stopping here and there, and is curious about everything he sees. I gradually understand the rules of the human world in my mind.
You have to wear clothes when you go out, pay when you buy things, and you can't hit people at will.
When she woke up the next day, she had a few more buns, spirit stones and silver coins in her hands.
She glanced at the sky and accepted it with peace of mind.
These are all gifts from God.
At this moment, Lu Chaochao remembered that she almost ran naked and couldn't help but cover her face.
"The dam has broken, the dam has broken!" Heart-wrenching cries came from outside the city gate.
