Chapter 1042 Bloodline Sin
The woman in green couldn't help but stare when she saw Gu An walking out of the inn. She was surprised that this guy actually dared to come out. Could it be that he really recognized my demon body before?
When the beggar heard Gu An's voice, he stopped for some unknown reason, and the anger in his heart dissipated a lot.
He slowly turned around and looked, then his eyes widened and his whole body trembled, he couldn't believe his eyes.
Seeing his reaction, the woman in green also became nervous. Could this person also be a great cultivator?
With a plop!
The beggar knelt down in the street, lowering his head, not daring to meet Gu An's gaze. He trembled and said, "Unworthy descendants, I pay my respects to my ancestors..."
Ancestor?
The woman in green was stunned. Gu An looked so young, so how could he be someone else's ancestor?
Gu An felt quite emotional when he saw Long Teng, who had become a beggar.
Long Teng is the son of Long Qing, who is the descendant of Long Zhan, Gu An's reincarnation. He was raised by Gu An. Even after leaving the Tianling World, Gu An still took care of Long Teng, even more than he did Long Qing.
Gu An couldn't explain why he loved Long Teng. Perhaps it was because of Long Zhan's memory. Long Teng was a bit like Long Xin.
Long Teng had been going smoothly, and was even famous throughout the Tianling World. However, he learned about the former glory of the Long family through his blood, which made his plans go astray.
He actually wanted to restore the Long family.
Gu An himself hoped that the Long family would disappear, so he naturally would not support him. However, due to his love for Long Teng, he did not stop him and let him rise and fall on his own.
Long Teng was ultimately unable to resist his fate and was suppressed by the Dragon Destroyer God of Heaven. At the same time, he also learned from the Dragon Destroyer God about the sins of the Long family in the past, which made him completely hopeless and even felt that his own blood was dirty.
With his heart broken, he stayed away from the world and hid in the mortal world, becoming depressed. It seemed that only by torturing himself in this way could he wash away the sins of his bloodline.
He had been trapped in the human world for tens of thousands of years, traveled through hundreds of mortal realms, and endured countless contempts and humiliations.
Gu An looked at Long Teng kneeling on the street and could hear his complicated thoughts. Gu An had always been partial to him, and even now, Gu An did not want to blame him.
"Get up and follow me."
After saying this, Gu An turned and walked towards another street.
Long Teng hesitated for a moment, but decided to get up and follow.
Although he questioned the bloodline of the Long family, he respected Gu An. Even though they had not seen each other for many years, he still could not refuse Gu An.
Seeing Long Teng follow Gu An away, the woman in green breathed a sigh of relief, but she looked at Gu An's back with some nostalgia.
She thought about the feeling of leaning on Gu An's shoulder before, and she was fascinated.
She couldn't tell what the feeling was, but as she watched Gu An go away, she felt more and more melancholy in her heart, and even ignored the mortals approaching on the street.
…
Leaving the town and entering the forest, Gu An did not stop but walked forward. Long Teng followed behind, feeling uneasy, not knowing why his ancestor was looking for him.
He didn't think this was a coincidence. Not to mention how high his ancestor's cultivation was, even he could see a certain destiny.
After walking for two hours, Long Teng could no longer bear it. He stopped and said through gritted teeth, "Ancestor, if you want to scold me or kill me, go ahead. I will not complain!"
Gu An stopped, half turned to look at him, and asked with a smile: "Why should I scold you, and why should I kill you?"
Long Teng hesitated to speak, suddenly not knowing how to answer.
He himself couldn't explain his fault, but he just couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart and despised the bloodline of the Long family.
This is the most desperate thing.
There is no hatred, no imminent disaster, but he just can't see hope, nor can he find a purpose to live for.
"Actually, you don't have to think too much about it. The Long family is already a thing of the past. If you don't mention it, no one will associate you with that branch of the Long family."
Gu An looked at Long Teng and spoke seriously. After hearing this, Long Teng couldn't help but smile bitterly. He had comforted himself in this way before, but he just couldn't convince himself.
"Actually, if you want to blame someone, blame me. The Long Zhan that Long Mie Shen mentioned is actually me. Long Zhan is my reincarnation. Although he made a big mistake, he got what he deserved."
Gu An's words made Long Teng even more uncomfortable. How could he possibly blame his ancestors?
In fact, he had already guessed that such a powerful Fudao Sword Master must have lived for a long time, and it was not surprising that he was the ancestor of the Long family.
Long Teng gritted his teeth and said, "You have saved the Tianling World so many times, and you have also saved the Three Thousand Worlds. Your merits are immense, and no one can blame you. Moreover, the cause and effect of Long Zhan has long been broken. It is only us, the descendants, who have brought this upon ourselves."
Gu An smiled and said, "It's really hard to convince you now. Why don't you travel with me? Perhaps you can find the meaning of cultivation and the meaning of your existence."
Long Teng instinctively wanted to refuse, but facing the gaze of his ancestor, he really couldn't say no.
Gu An looked back, and in an instant, the forest they were in suddenly changed, and they suddenly came to a bustling street. On both sides were rows of beautiful buildings, decorated with lights and colorful decorations, and the sound of noise quickly rose.
Feeling the spiritual energy here, Long Teng can be sure that this is definitely not an ordinary world.
"What a powerful magical power!"
Long Teng was secretly shocked. His current cultivation level was not low, but he did not find any sign of his ancestor's magical power of movement.
"Let's go change our clothes."
Gu An waved his sleeves and smiled, walking forward with high spirits.
Long Teng had no choice but to follow. He also wanted to find a way to redeem himself from his ancestors. He knew very well that no matter how depressed he was, he could not wash away the sins of the Long family.
There are some truths that even if you know them, you still can't get over them.
In this way, Gu An took Long Teng to travel through the heavens and play in the human world. When he encountered suffering mortals, Gu An would lend a hand, but if he encountered cultivators fighting, he would take Long Teng to avoid it most of the time.
At first, Long Teng was very confused. It was too inappropriate for his ancestor to play all day long. He asked many times, but was suppressed by Gu An.
As time went by, Long Teng found that his mentality was not so depressed, and he was even attracted by the things he encountered.
The world has changed dramatically, and time has passed.
Long Teng was no longer in his previous negative state. Although he was still serious, he looked much more sunny.
On this day, the two came to a holy place, ready to watch the most grand gathering of geniuses in this world. The major forces between heaven and earth gathered here, and the number of living beings in the city exceeded 100 million, the peak of their lives.
Long Teng was walking on the street. He looked up and saw many magnificent and huge magic weapons floating in the sky, and even dragons and phoenixes circling and unicorns flying in the air.
He had lived for so long and had even seen immortals and gods, but this was his first time to come to such a prosperous place.
"Ancestor, are we here just to join in the fun?" Long Teng couldn't help but ask Gu An beside him.
