Chapter 1
by fanqienovelChapter 1: After Living for Ten Thousand Years, I Have a Daughter
In the Nine Provinces, on the peak of Qingluan Mountain, inside a magnificent palace!
Boom—
With a muffled groan, a stone door slowly opened deep within the palace.
Bai Chen stepped out from the stone door, a slight frown on his face.
“Why has the Soul Lamp awakened me again after just five years?”
Bai Chen’s eyes sparkled, bright red like blood but fading away quickly, with a hint of green light flickering before returning to normal.
He inherited the Ancestor Zombie Bloodline, which made him immortal and allowed him to live for ten thousand years!
However, five years ago, he had grown tired of a mundane life and, unable to find treasures to help him break through, fell into slumber.
The Soul Lamp connected with his mind and would only awaken him when something related to him occurred in the world.
Bai Chen calculated with his fingers, his heart jolting.
A life-threatening crisis!
He has lived for ten thousand years and had never encountered such a situation!
This world had indeed given rise to an existence that could threaten him!
As Bai Chen continued to calculate, suddenly his bloodline surged with energy.
Drawn by the bloodline, flames surged around Bai Chen.
Then, flames shot up towards the sky, transforming into an Ancestor Zombie form with two distinct faces.
One face was majestic, resembling a god of fire.
The other was shrouded in purple light, mysterious and extraordinary.
“Is there still a trace of my bloodline in this world?”
As his calculations deepened, the sense of the bloodline grew stronger, and finally, Bai Chen exclaimed in shock:
“This is impossible! I actually have descendants?”
Bai Chen found it hard to believe; throughout history, he had been close to many beautiful women but had never fathered a child—yet now he had a child?
Thinking that he actually had a descendant still alive, Bai Chen ignored everything else and immediately left the palace.
Once outside the palace, Bai Chen suddenly stopped in surprise. Numerous blue stone tablets were placed outside, inscribed with writings.
“Thank you, Master Bai Chen, for your guidance in martial arts, from your disciple, the Northern Battlefield God, Xu Feng!”
“Remembering Master Bai Chen, I leave this blue stone as a token of remembrance, from your disciple, Song Ziwen!”
…
There were more than ten of these blue stones, each expressing gratitude and admiration toward Bai Chen.
The people mentioned were all renowned figures in the Nine Provinces!
Yet, they all respected Bai Chen as their teacher!
After reading all the messages on the blue stones, a smile involuntarily appeared at the corner of Bai Chen’s mouth.
“These guys!”
But when Bai Chen’s gaze landed on the last stone tablet, his expression suddenly froze.
“Master! I miss you so much! When will you wake up? I can’t wait to see you! Your cutest disciple, Shi Yueyue!”
As Bai Chen read these words, a quirky young girl flashed in his mind, and a bitter smile appeared on his face.
“This time, I better not tell them I’m coming down the mountain, or else that little girl will cling to me again!”
Returning to his senses, Bai Chen stood at the peak, looking out towards the southeast.
There, he felt his bloodline!
Whoosh!
Bai Chen vanished from the spot, and some time later, several men in black climbed breathlessly to the summit, carrying various cleaning tools.
“My back hurts, my legs ache. I’m really worn out!”
“Shh, keep it quiet. Let’s finish cleaning and head down. Remember, don’t get too close to the palace.”
“Right! They say the one in the palace is the head of the family’s master, a great enlightened being with boundless power.”
“Wait! Look, the palace’s main door is open! There are signs of activity!”
One man suddenly shouted, and everyone turned to see that the palace, which had been closed for years, was now open!
“Quick, notify the family head!”
Half a day later, Song Ziwen arrived at the peak of Qingluan Mountain on a private jet. When he saw the palace door open, his pupils dilated with shock!
In an instant, news of Bai Chen’s emergence spread to everyone he had previously instructed!
Military aircraft cleared the way, and the most mysterious special forces of the Nine Provinces, the Dragon Flame, personally sealed off the area!
The God of the Northern Battlefield, the God of the Southern Frontier, the richest man in the Nine Provinces, the number one divine doctor in the Nine Provinces, and many others put aside their tasks and gathered at the peak of Qingluan Mountain within a day!
Song Ziwen surveyed the crowd and took a deep breath.
“Teacher has emerged!”
Xu Feng, God of the Northern Battlefield, wore three stars on his shoulder, his expression serious and solemn.
“Why didn’t the teacher inform us he was coming out? What exactly happened?”
Song Ziwen shook his head. “I don’t know, but the teacher must have his reasons for not telling us. Let’s not disturb him too much; let’s secretly search for his whereabouts!”
The others nodded, but Xu Feng’s expression suddenly changed.
“Ziwen, did you tell that girl Yueyue about this?”
“Not yet.”
“That’s good!”
Xu Feng breathed a sigh of relief, and those around him did the same, clearly aware of what would happen when Shi Yueyue learned of Bai Chen’s emergence.
The news of Bai Chen entering the world began to spread among the upper echelons of power in the Nine Provinces.
Countless people craved the chance to become Bai Chen’s disciples!
The reason was simple; the prominent figures in the Nine Provinces had all risen to fame in recent years.
They all had one common master, Bai Chen!
…
Southeast, Jiangnan Province, Lintai City.
As Bai Chen sensed the approximate range of his descendant’s bloodline activities, he gradually moved closer.
At this rate, he would be able to find his descendant in less than half a day!
The thought of having a blood relative after so many years without any family excited Bai Chen.
His once calm heart began to stir with emotions.
“Could it really be from that time?” Bai Chen fell into reflection.
Five years ago, he saw a woman get drugged in a hotel. Thinking he could save her life, he willingly offered himself as an antidote.
But just from that one time, did he end up with a child?
Sensing the direction of his descendant, Bai Chen continued his search, quickening his pace.
It seemed the descendant was in danger?
In a dark alley,
A furious voice echoed from deep within the corridor, prompting Bai Chen to quicken his steps further.
“Crying, crying, crying! What are you crying for? If you cry again, I’ll slap you!”
“Hey! Dragon, you can’t hit this little girl! You know her blood is rare! Many wealthy people are waiting for her!”
“What if something happens to the girl? The Family Head will chop us up and feed us to the fish!”
Hearing his brother Ahu’s words, Long couldn’t help but think of the Family Head Lin Qing’s fierce expression, making him shudder.
He, Long, knew well the Family Head’s methods; if this matter went wrong, they would really be chopped up and fed to the fish!
Long no longer attempted to harm the little girl but instead, his gaze turned even more menacing.
“If you cry again, I’ll drain your blood! Do you hear me?!”
Bai Nian Nian immediately stopped crying at his words, her eyes tearful, though she occasionally sniffled, her stomach grumbling.
“I’m hungry…”
Long and Ahu frowned; this little girl was their cash cow, and if she starved to the point of harm, it wouldn’t be good.
“Get the leftover food we have!” Long instructed Ahu.
Ahu hesitated, “Long, we fed the dogs all the leftovers. All that’s left is some slop. What about that?”
“Fine! As long as it doesn’t kill her, it’ll be okay. Just look at her, so thin! She must come from a poor family! A poor little thing, whatever! If she can eat some slop, it’ll be better than nothing!”
“Maybe the slop she eats is the best food she’s ever had in her life! Hahaha!”
At this, Ahu hurriedly grabbed a broken bowl and scooped a bowl of slop from the bucket.
“Here! Hurry and eat this!”
