Reunion with Qing Yuzi, Disaster of the History Book Worm!

After Zhao Xing left the territory of Venerable Bomeng.

Peng Yue rushed over to see him off with books in her arms, just in time to miss Zhao Xing's departure.

"Your Excellency, Zhao Shennong left?"

"He just left." Bermon nodded. "He left in a hurry, as if he had something important to do."

"Sigh." Peng Yue was a little disappointed. She was hoping to let Zhao Xing see the Theory of Law she had just written.

If we miss this chance, who knows when we'll meet again.

Feeling dejected, Peng Yue Yuecha dragged her head back to her study.

She carefully arranged a pile of books on the bookshelf, some of which were classics annotated by Zhao Xing, all of which she treasured.

Then Peng Yue carefully closed the door and went out.

"Wipe rub~"

Right after she left, a very subtle sound of paper rubbing came from the corner of the bookshelf.

The White Jade Five Mausoleum Boat swiftly traveled through the Void River.

Zhao Xing then went to Wei Tianchen's library and looked through Wei Tianchen's notes.

The Heaven and Earth Attainment Method must have goals and methods.

For example, Wei Tianchen's goal is to kill the Divine Realm, and his method is the "Heaven Mending Method." By killing the Divine Realm, he returns their essence to the universe, thereby receiving the reward of the universe's essence.

If Gu Tianyang's Primordial Beginning Straw Man Technique is a method for Heaven and Earth Attainment, then what is its goal?

Zhao Xing searched through the library for a long time before finally finding the original notebook he had read before, which contained Wei Tianchen's comments on various Straw Man Art.

[The methods created by Gu Tianyang, up to the Voidgrass Doppelganger, still possessed some genuine substance, while the Primordial Beginning Straw Man was purely wishful thinking.]

The Gu Family brothers were both eccentric and prone to unrealistic dreams. Gu Luo River was one, and so was Gu Tianyang.

[Gu Tianyang died, and his disciple Zuo Qiyu inherited his teachings, making Gu Luo River one of the founders of the Primordial Beginning Realm.]

Time flies. In the Emperor Yu Ancestral Land, another vast nation has been established: the Red Star Empire.

However, I always feel that Gu Tianyang didn't die in the Black Heaven Realm. If it's really what I think, that little guy is truly ruthless.

"What did Wei Tianchen base his conclusion on?" Zhao Xing closed the notebook and began to search extensively for information about the "Straw Man Art" in his notes.

Because Wei Tianchen's collection of books was so vast, even with Zhao Xing's method of filtering and searching, it took him half a year to read through all the selected books and notes.

In the end, Zhao Xing placed the few books he found useful beside him.

"Due to the chaos of time and space, there are many different versions of the order of the Five Emperors Era, but what is certain is that Emperor Luo was the last Divine Emperor."

"Many ancient books have mentioned that powerful Straw Man Art appeared during the five God Emperor Era."

"However, at that time, the Straw Man Art was not included in the Shennong Art, but was included in the sacrificial rituals."

"But the most prosperous period was Li Emperor Era, because Li Emperor abolished the common practice of life sacrifice in various places and replaced it with the sacrifice of straw figures."

"If we want the straw doll to have the same sacrificial power, then the Straw Man Art cannot be too weak, otherwise it will be impossible to meet the requirements of the sacrifice."

"Thus, the Straw Man Art began to appear extensively Li Emperor Era."

"However, at this time, the Straw Man Art was still in the hands of the Priest and was regarded as a ritual. Many of the gods who accepted the offerings were still just pretending to be gods, just like the Luck Free God but inwardly defied them."

"On the surface, the Straw Man Art replaced the life sacrifice, but in reality, the straw doll was still made from life, flesh and blood, and souls. As a result, many evil Straw Man Art appeared, such as the straw doll method that devours souls, devours flesh and blood, and even the straw Straw Man Art that Great Dao Origin of the Great Dao."

"In Wei Tianchen's notes, it is mentioned that there were twelve kinds of dark and evil Straw Man Art in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths at that time. These were the most harmful and most secretive methods at the time, and were called the ' Twelve Divine Sacrifices '."

Zhao Xing looked at the books in front of him, constantly sorting out their structure.

"In the later period of the Li Emperor Era, eight of these twelve powerful Evil God were eliminated by the Li Emperor, but four escaped and their whereabouts are unknown."

"After that, the Straw Man Art was no longer classified as Way of Sacrifice, but as Shennong Art, and was put under the control of the Shennong God."

Zhao Xing looked at these ancient books, although he had no power, he still felt a sense of bloodshed and carnage.

The struggle over the orthodox tradition was never a trivial matter. The transformation of a major category of magic from the Way of Sacrifice the way of Agricultural Official definitely involved a large-scale struggle.

"Priest are incredibly weak in this era, but during the Five Emperors period, they were absolutely the foremost path," Zhao Xing thought to himself.

After all, the Five Emperors all performed the Fengshan ceremony to worship Heaven and Earth, which inevitably required powerful God of Priests. The size of this demand determined the strength of the Daoist tradition.

If the environment Five Emperors Era was relatively stable, then the Agricultural Official would have had a real hard time defeating the Priest.

"The Twelve Divine Sacrifices —could it be that the Straw Man Art created by Gu Tianyang is actually a form of sacrificial ritual? A wolf in sheep's clothing?" Zhao Xing pondered. "Gu Luo River believes that my brother is on his side, and Gu Tianyang's Straw Man Art has not been banned. On the contrary, it has been passed down and successors have been continuously trained, such as Zuo Qiyu, Jin Yan, and me."

Zhao Xing thought it was very likely, because he discovered that after Pu Yan died, only less than 30% of his power was absorbed by him and Zuo Qiyu, while the rest disappeared. If he hadn't broken through and reached the twelfth level of his True Spirit, he might not have been able to see it.

"Metaphor"

Zhao Xing's mind entered his Internal World, and at the same time, it entered the straw figure made of divine Divine Soldier Level materials.

"Boom!"

Even with all his might, amplified by the power of the Soul Tree Heart, Zhao Xing's true spirit could only manage to raise the index finger of his right hand.

As the index finger was raised, the space around it vibrated continuously.

Simply by mastering this index finger, a divine power was mobilized from the Earth Core Blood Nucleus and transmitted to the index finger.

"Call out!"

The Boundless Continent was instantly pierced by a huge hole.

"Hiss~"

Zhao Xing quickly activated the World Core, and a large amount of mist spread from his Internal World to repair the Boundless Continent.

"This power is definitely equivalent to a strike from Free God of freedom."

"Pu Yan has mastered the Primordial Beginning Straw Man Technique, taking half a step further than Zuo Qiyu. He has preserved his original body and can be reborn from the memories of his divided Soul Body."

"What I figured out was to make the Life Dao Diagram structure of the straw man more perfect from the perspective of the straw man's body and life level, so that the straw man could also take shape at the god level."

"I just don't know if Zuo Qiyu has made any progress."

However, Zhao Xing dared not continue his research. Without understanding Gu Tianyang's situation, he could not delve deeper into this magic, lest he become someone else's pawn in the process.

"There are even stronger Straw Man Art in history. If I could travel through time, I might be able to learn even stronger, Divine-Level Straw Man Art. Why would I need to learn Gu Tianyang's secret techniques?"

Zhao Xing couldn't help but feel a longing for the Li Emperor Era.

No wonder the Immeasurable True God doesn't care whether he's an undercover agent or not.

The more you know, the more you'll yearn for the Evil God Faction!

The divine straw doll technique held great appeal for a primal, ego-oriented farmer.

"Let's go back first."

The White Jade Five Tombs Ship quickly returned to the Origin Heavenly Palace.

At this time, Chen Jiu was still leading a group of selected geniuses in cultivating the Devouring Tribulation Art, while Zhao Xing planned to return to the imperial territory on his own.

The Third Era of the Desolate Territory, the Eleventh World Star Year, the Tianyou Ancient Kingdom, the Powa Star Continent.

In a vast and endless forest spanning billions of kilometers, there stands a magnificent Divine Temple.

The Divine Temple is surrounded by elm trees and houses a statue of a deity named after the Qing Yuzi.

There were also some smaller palace buildings built around the main palace, but the population was very small, only about a million people.

Guardians here are none other than the "Purple Moon Mansion Lord" and the Yuqing Mansion Lord from the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom long ago. However, both of them are now at the Emperor Lord Level.

Although Qing Yuzi was punished and sent to the past, the Purple God Mansion where he had once stayed was properly resettled.

Now, Emperor Lord Realm Purple Moon and Emperor Lord Realm Yuqing have been staying here.

"The statue is acting strangely." Suddenly, Emperor Lord Realm Purple Moon found Emperor Lord Realm Yuqing.

"What's going on?" Jade Purity Emperor Lord Realm asked in confusion as he meditated.

"The divine decree has been sent, but I have not been able to receive it," Emperor Lord Realm Purple Moon with some anxiety.

"Let's go take a look!"

Emperor Lord Realm Yuqing and Emperor Lord Realm Purple Moon immediately went inside the Divine Temple.

Before the statue of Qing Yuzi, a bronze cauldron was ablaze with flames, which illuminated the statue and made it shine brilliantly.

Inside the bronze cauldron, there appears to be a tattered piece of paper.

Emperor Lord Realm Yuqing and Emperor Lord Realm Purple Moon were quite bewildered.

They tried to communicate, but the statue did not respond.

But this truly seems like some kind of miracle.

"Your Majesty, what exactly are you trying to tell us?" Emperor Lord Realm Purple Moon and Emperor Lord Realm Yuqing were very anxious.

But they couldn't understand what Qing Yuzi was trying to express.

They all knew that Qing Yuzi had gone to a very far place, but they didn't know how far. Many years had passed, and this was the first time Qing Yuzi had displayed such a miracle.

Both of them felt it was very important, but the miracles that were now manifesting were too abstract.

"Your Majesty, we are foolish and cannot understand your meaning." Emperor Lord Realm Yuqing sighed.

The gap in the paper continued to widen, and the forehead of the Qing Yuzi Statue shimmered with light, as if it were sweating.

The statues, gilded with magical materials, were beginning to show signs of damage, looking as if they were about to collapse.

"What should we do?" Emperor Lord Realm Yuqing asked anxiously. "Should we notify the Divine Temple?"

"How do we notify them?" Emperor Lord Realm Purple Moon sighed. They had indeed benefited greatly and become Emperor Lord Realm.

However, even inside the Reincarnation Temple, it was a creature that was disliked by both humans and dogs.

If Zhao Xing was merely unintentionally drawn into the events of that year, then they were peripheral members of the Reincarnation Temple who actively helped Qing Yuzi plot her ascension to godhood.

They're already doing well with the treatment they're getting. Want to go back to the Divine Temple? They can't even see anyone right now; who the hell knows if they're here to steal again?

"If the God has any major matters to attend to, he will definitely notify the Reincarnation Temple immediately."

"If not, it must be because that road is blocked."

"But we don't know what happened, sigh—"

Even though they were Emperor Lord Realm, they were helpless against the level of gods.

Normally, the miracles performed by the Qing Yu God should be clear and unambiguous.

How could such a blurry situation occur?

Their intuition told them that there must be a big problem, but they could only watch helplessly.

"Hoo hoo~"

Flames rolled, and the gaps in the paper continued to widen.

The two stared intently at each other, and finally made a decision together.

"Yuqing, let's each sacrifice a million years of our lifespan and see if we can stabilize the miracle."

"Fine." Emperor Lord Realm Yuqing gritted his teeth and immediately cut open his wrist.

lll~

The essence and blood of the two were poured into the bronze cauldron in large quantities.

The flames instantly turned blood red.

The two Emperor Lord Realm sacrificed their lifespans; a million years of lifespan is already a lot!

This will trigger their True Spirit Tribulation earlier, shortening the time they have to deal with it.

But I can't worry about that now.

"Phew~"

Flames surged inside the bronze cauldron.

The rate at which the paper was being torn slowed down, and with the combined efforts of the two, four characters finally appeared on it.

Go find Zhao Xing.

"Phew~"

After he finished speaking, the flames inside the bronze cauldron suddenly went out, as if nothing had ever happened.

However, the two Emperor Lord Realm had already shown signs of aging, and the statue of Qing Yuzi had also begun to crack.

"Boom!"

A Realm Ship quickly took off from the Powa Star Continent.

Within the territory of the Tianyou Ancient Kingdom, a Realm Ship is shuttling through the void.

In the twelfth year of the Third Era, Zhao Xing returned from the Origin Heavenly Palace, accompanied by the Heavenly Crown Venerable.

The Heavenly Crown Venerable is Historical Scholar, but he is not a pure scholar; he is the kind who can fight.

When Zhao Xing first challenged the Earth Core Blood Nucleus, Heavenly Crown Venerable ranked second. Afterwards, he rushed to the Origin Heavenly Palace because he wanted to befriend Zhao Xing and observe the Earth Core Blood Nucleus.

But at that time, Zhao Xing had no time to pay attention to him.

He then followed Venerable Bomeng to the Celestial Demon Kingdom to deal with Jin Yan's matter.

However, after returning, Heavenly Crown Venerable was still waiting, which finally moved Zhao Xing.

"Heavenly Crown Venerable, I never said when I would return. It could be ten years, or it could be hundreds or thousands of years. Are you just going to wait like this forever?"

Heavenly Crown Venerable said humorously, "Zhao Shennong, I don't have any other skills, but I'm best at waiting."

"Hahaha." Considering that this person was ranked after Venerable Zhang He and had also waited for over 300,000 years, Zhao Xing was amused by his words.

"If you wish to view the Earth Core Blood Nucleus, that's not impossible," Zhao Xing said. "What will Your Excellency offer in exchange?"

Heavenly Crown Venerable said happily, "Please name your Zhao Shennong. I only need to observe for a hundred years."

"Then let's trade some history books," Zhao Xing said. "You can find any history books from ancient kingdoms."

Zhao Xing still has two tasks with the Immeasurable True God: one is to cultivate the Myriad-Era Flower God Seed.

Another is cultivating History Book Worm.

For the previous task, Zhao Xing had no clue what to do and had no idea how to make the Myriad-Era Flower God Seed sprout.

However, the second character had a specific goal: to devour all kinds of historical books.

He had previously exchanged some items with Elder Feng Chen of the Academy City, but they were only low-grade goods.

"Alright, I happen to have some Ancient Demon History Book, which are of a high level. I can give them to Zhao Shennong."

The Heavenly Crown Venerable took out three glittering history books, each with a cover depicting a demonic beast.

There are also many loose pages, richly illustrated, containing the origins of history.

However, the three strongest are: "Ancient Demons: Rongdi Clan", "Chronicles of the Ten Great Demon Kings", and "Chaos Sea Ancient Demon Book".

"Okay, you can go in now."

Zhao Xing waved his hand, and without further haggling, directly took the Heavenly Crown Venerable into his Internal World, letting him go inside the straw man's body to observe the Earth Core Blood Nucleus.

Swish~

Then Zhao Xing took out an exquisite transparent insect box, inside which floated a larva that looked like a silkworm, and the box exuded a faint scent of books.

The History Book Worm feeds on historical books, and its skin is covered with many characters.

The larvae are very weak, not even at the Source Origin Realm, and you could even say they have no aura.

However, if it can enter the growth period and begin its first transformation, it will reveal its power.

"It can devour history books. The Immeasurable True God said that the most powerful god-level bookworms can even devour the Mysterious Spirit History. I don't know if that's true."

Zhao Xing found it hard to believe that such a divine object Mysterious Spirit History could be devoured by this tiny bookworm.

But since it was a mission anyway, and the materials needed by the Evil God were all sorts of strange things, he wasn't surprised.

"Eat up, the sooner they're ripe, the better I can report back." Zhao Xing tossed the three history books into the box.

"Click, click, click~~"

The History Book Larva instantly transformed into a streak of light and pounced on the three ancient demon books, but it couldn't chew them up, so it could only start by gnawing on the loose pages.

Zhao Xing watched for a while, but soon got bored, so he sat cross-legged and quietly waited for the Realm Ship to return to the empire.

However, at this very moment, a metaphor...

His Star Mirror suddenly started ringing.

"Hmm? It's Du Yun."

"He contacted me?"

"It seems he knows I've been to the Origin Heavenly Palace."

Zhao Xing came to the Origin Heavenly Palace because he had business to attend to, and Du Yun was not located in the First Xu Zu Star System, so he simply did not contact Du Yun.

"Metaphor"

Du Yun's phantom appeared in front of Zhao Xing.

"Brother Du, did you know I'd been to the Origin Heavenly Palace? It's not that I didn't want to see you, it's just that time was short and the mission was demanding—"

But Du Yun interrupted Zhao Xing with a serious expression, "Zhao Xing, we can catch up later. I have something to do. Please agree to let the other two people in."

"Okay." Zhao Xing nodded.

Then, in the Star Mirror, not only did Du Yun's figure appear, but also two familiar yet unfamiliar faces.

"The Purple Moon Mansion Lord and the Yuqing Mansion Lord?"

Seeing these two people, Zhao Xing couldn't help but recall the scenes when he first entered the universe, when it was the Purple Moon Mansion Lord picked him up at the Star Gate.

Later, relying on the resources of the Purple Moon Mansion, he broke through to the Source Origin Realm, went to Yueluo Cemetery, and made his first fortune.

It was around that time that I met Du Yun, Du Yun was considered the next successor of the Purple God Mansion.

After the destruction of the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom, he was unaware of how the power structure of Lao Qing in this life was arranged.

Eight thousand years have passed, and we are only now seeing these two people for the first time.

"What do they want from you?" Zhao Xing asked. Du Yun was also a member of the Purple God Mansion, and in a way, Du Yun was related to Qing Yuzi.

"I don't know." Du Yun shook his head. "They refuse to say, only that they have important matters to discuss with Senior Qing Yuzi. They insist on seeing you before they can tell you."

"Where is it located?" Zhao Xing asked, looking at the Purple Moon Mansion Lord and the Yuqing Mansion Lord.

"The Tianyou Ancient Kingdom, the Powa Star Continent."

"I'm coming right away." Zhao Xing didn't waste any words and immediately turned around.

He should go and see it, both for his own sake and for his own public interest.

Moreover, the Powa Star Continent is located within the Xuanling Star Domain. If these two are bewitched by the Evil God, that would be even better, given the location...

The level of the Evil God is probably not high; it's definitely just Contribution Points!

"I can't leave. I've reached a critical stage in my cultivation of the Devouring Tribulation Art. Zhao Xing, I'm counting on you," Du Yun said.

"It's nothing."

Three months later, on the Powa Star Continent, Zhao Xing's White Jade Five Tombs Ship landed.

"Boom!"

The cabin opened, Zhao Xing stepped onto the treetops to begin scanning the entire Star Continent.

They soon discovered Emperor Lord Realm Yuqing and Emperor Lord Realm Purple Moon, as well as the Divine Temple.

"Is there a Divine Temple here in Lao Qing as well?"

Zhao Xing flashed and appeared at the entrance of the Divine Temple in the next second.

What exactly is going on?

He didn't sense anything unusual; the entire world of the Powa Star Continent was laid out before him. However, Zhao Xing had also donned the Temporal Grain Rain Robe, and it was always better to be cautious.

"Zhao Shennong, just a few months ago," the Purple Moon Mansion Lord recounted the events.

Under the watchful gaze of Zhao Xing's true spirit, it was impossible for the Purple Moon Mansion Lord to lie.

After listening, Zhao Xing nodded.

"Lao Qing said there would be a chance to meet in the Third Era of the Desolate Territory. Could it be that he ran into trouble while working away from home?"

Emperor Lord Realm Purple Moon and the others did not know where Qing Yuzi had gone, but Zhao Xing knew that Lao Qing had gone to the past.

He imagined a scene: Lao Qing left his hometown for a big city, only to be bullied by local bullies.

"Could Lao Qing have run into some major incident again? If he had a problem, he should have sought help from the Reincarnation Temple, why would he come to me?"

Zhao Xing hesitated for a moment, but ultimately sent a clone into the Divine Temple.

Regardless, he and Qing Yuzi shared a bond; if Lao Qing really encountered any trouble...

We should still help out if we can.

However, Zhao Xing didn't need to send a clone. He could sever the clone at any time and leave, so it was impossible for him to get involved in such a major event as the East Yan Ancient Clan Resurrection.

"Buzz~"

As soon as Zhao Xing's Soul Fragment entered, the bronze cauldron burst into flames.

A tattered piece of paper floats in the flames.

"Um?"

Zhao Xing was stronger than Purple Moon and Yu Qing, and immediately discovered more information.

This is a page torn from a history book, because it not only reflects the fluctuations of time, but also the attributes of a history book.

"Kacha kacha~"

The paper began to tear, breaking off little by little from the edges, as if a large mouth was slowly eating away at it.

"Big big!"

Zhao Xing unleashed his Azure Flower Mana, Vast Ocean Mana, and Mysterious Soul Mana.

In this specific scenario, these three magical powers are more useful than the three magical powers of the Agricultural Official.

Zhao Xing saw more information.

[The Tianyou Book, Annals Seven, The Emperor Hong Yi]

After a moment's thought, Zhao Xing realized that this corresponded to the period of the seventh Lord of the Kingdom the Tianyou Ancient Kingdom, approximately from the 1003rd Solar Year of the 37th era to the 34th Solar Year of the 35th era in the Desolate Territory.

Because after ruling for two eras, the ruler of Hongyi Kingdom abdicated to attempt to break through to the divine realm, but he failed.

Vanished into thin air.

Then the information on the paper changed again.

[The Tianyou Book, Chapter Eleven, Du Zhenzong]

Zhao Xing frowned slightly.

Not long after, it became "Chapter Fourteen of the Annals".

[Annals, Chapter Twenty-Three]

The time span is very large, but there is a pattern: they all gradually approach the modern era.

Each time it is revealed, the paper is restored, and then the damage reappears.

"Kacha kacha~"

When they arrived in the eighth era before the Desolate Territory, a pattern began to appear on the [Tianyou Book].

Zhao Xing could already clearly hear the gnawing sounds.

At this moment, he finally understood what Qing Yuzi wanted to express.

"Lao Qing, are you saying that there's a group of adult History Book Worm who are traversing the River of Time, gnawing on history along the way?"

He looked up at the statue of Qing Yuzi, and at that moment, two lines of tears streamed from the corner of the statue's eyes.

"You're not kidding, are you—" Zhao Xing gasped. "This thing really exists?"

If that's the case, then we're in big trouble.

He instantly thought of many possibilities.

History books symbolize existing historical memories; if history books are overturned, then there will be a collective falsification of memories.

Just like the Realm Transmission he and Yang Baihe had experienced, in that tomb Realm Transmission, the Grand Tutor and the King were both extremely evil.

Some Starry Sky Historian can tamper with memories. For example, the ancient Dongyan Ancient Clan replaced the Yuan Sea Kingdom Lord in the Dongyan Sea. No one even noticed when they held a Dharma assembly until the moment they planned to launch the attack.

In addition, historical records also served a protective function in the Third Era of the Desolate Territory, ensuring that the memories of time and space were not impacted.

If the former faction releases a group of powerful History Book Worm, even the protection of the Mysterious Spirit History might be in jeopardy!

"The Bookworm Calamity —you really can see anything if you live long enough." Thinking of all the possibilities, Zhao Xing felt a chill run down his spine.

He immediately memorized all the information that Qing Yuzi had conveyed.

However, at that moment, something strange happened outside the hall.

"I wonder what's wrong with the Divine Lord, that he actually summoned Zhao Xing. What happened—Yu Qing, do you think he might be in danger?"

Purple Moon Mansion Lord waited patiently.

But at this moment, there was a look of confusion in the eyes of the Yuqing Mansion Lord.

The Purple Moon Mansion Lord looked at her with a puzzled expression.

The latter, however, was the first to change his expression, acting as if he didn't recognize him at all. "Who are you? What are you doing here!"

The Purple Moon Mansion Lord looked at Zhao Xing with some surprise, then at the Yuqing Mansion Lord: "Jade Purity, what's wrong with you? I'm Purple Moon."

Not only did the Yuqing Mansion Lord not regain consciousness, but after a moment, his face suddenly turned red and his eyes reddened.

"You traitorous sellout! Prepare to die!"

Clang!

One after another, Heart Sword emanated from the Yuqing Mansion Lord, launching a sudden attack on the Purple Moon Mansion Lord.

"What? You—"

"Pfft pfft~~"

The Purple Moon Mansion Lord was suddenly knocked away, and his aura rapidly descended.

If Zhao Xing hadn't come to his senses and intervened in time, he probably would have been dead.

"Let me go! Who are you? This is an internal affair of my Tianyou Ancient Kingdom— "

Zhao Xing grabbed the Yuqing Mansion Lord and knocked her unconscious. He then picked up the Purple Moon Mansion Lord: "Are you alright?"

"What... what's going on?" Purple Moon Mansion Lord asked, completely bewildered.

"You two have lived long enough that your influence has spread to the time of your birth," Zhao Xing sighed. "If I remember correctly, Lord of the Manor, you were born in the seventh era before the Desolate Territory?"

"Yes, Yuqing is a bit older than me." The Purple Moon Mansion Lord suddenly fell silent, looking at Zhao Xing with some fear. "You... who are you? Why am I here?"
