Chapter 79: Bring Me Some of Those Dinosaur Eggs
A few hours later, Li Ziwei arrived at the small village and saw the Immortal spirit root children that Ni Xiaotang had detected.
She had returned from the outer starry skies using interstellar teleportation arrays, which had taken several hours.
“Your Majesty,” Ni Xiaotang immediately bowed respectfully upon seeing Li Ziwei.
“Please, no need for such formalities. Is this the child?” Li Ziwei pointed at the three-year-old little boy!
Opposite Li Ziwei, the three-year-old boy and six-year-old girl He Tu Lingshan looked at her with curious eyes, especially He Tu Lingshan.
Although she had heard of the Ziwei Great Emperor, she did not know what the great emperor looked like.
“Child, what is your name?” Li Ziwei asked the little boy.
The little boy felt a bit scared and hid behind his sister.
Hearing Li Ziwei’s question, He Tu Lingshan quickly replied, “This… sister Immortal, my brother’s name is He Tu Xiaoyu.”
“He Tu Xiaoyu? Your surname is He Tu?” Li Ziwei thought for a moment; that surname was quite rare, and she couldn’t recall any notable figures with that name.
“Come, let you sisters test your spirit roots.”
Li Ziwei took out the crystal ball used for spirit root testing.
A few minutes later, Li Ziwei confirmed that the three-year-old little boy truly had an Immortal spirit root.
“Where is my father?” Li Ziwei turned to Ni Xiaotang and asked.
“Your teacher is at the village chief’s house,” Ni Xiaotang answered.
Upon hearing Ni Xiaotang’s response, Li Ziwei used her divine sense and quickly located Li Xiaojun.
For some reason, Li Ziwei felt that these two children must be connected to her father.
What a coincidence it was! As soon as her father arrived here, Ni Xiaotang detected the Immortal spirit root.
So, if she wasn’t mistaken, this brother and sister duo should share her father’s bloodline.
However, after a hundred thousand years, they were likely to be far removed from their ancestor, probably losing the connection along the way.
Li Ziwei was indeed not wrong.
The ancestors of these siblings included a female cultivator from the Qingxia Sect, who, unfortunately, was assassinated by the beast tribe at a young age.
Fortunately, before her assassination, she had a partner and children.
A hundred thousand years have passed, and her children had given birth to grandchildren, continuing for many generations more.
On the other hand, Li Xiaojun was chatting with the village chief at He Tu Lingshan’s home.
Upon learning that the siblings had tested positive for spirit roots, the village chief rushed over immediately.
When Ni Xiaotang tested the siblings’ spirit roots, many villagers saw it from outside, so the village chief naturally knew about it.
“Mr. Li, these two children have grown up under our watch since they were small. We are thrilled that they can detect Immortal roots…”
“Sir, our village is poor; every family has only a few mu of spiritual fields…”
“Sir…”
At home, Li Xiaojun gently sipped tea, seemingly not paying attention to what the village chief was saying.
The village chief expressed his complaints indirectly, treating him as if he were an official from the Cultivation Alliance.
Now that two gifted children had emerged in the village, he naturally wanted official support to help the village.
Li Xiaojun could not take charge of such matters, as he was not an official.
Although it was just a matter of him saying a word, it did not benefit him at all.
“Alas!”
Seeing that Li Xiaojun was unresponsive, the village chief sighed and said directly, “Sir, can you please contact higher authorities to help repair our village’s roads?”
“Village chief, it’s useless to say this to me; you should go speak to the Ziwei Great Emperor outside. She has already arrived,” Li Xiaojun pointed towards the outside.
“Sir, don’t speak carelessly. How could the Ziwei Great Emperor come to our village?” The village chief did not believe that the Ziwei Great Emperor would come to them.
“What’s so impossible about it? The Ziwei Great Emperor is human too. Seeing the potential of great emperors, wouldn’t she come to accept disciples?” Li Xiaojun said lightly.
Outside, Li Ziwei had completed the spirit root tests for the two children.
“Inside, would you two siblings like to become my disciples?” Li Ziwei asked the children.
“Willing.”
He Tu Lingshan immediately agreed without hesitation.
Although she did not believe that the woman claiming to be the Ziwei Great Emperor was genuine, she was certain that the woman was a powerful Immortal Master, at least at the Golden Core stage or higher.
Additionally, the person wanting to accept her as a disciple was a woman, so she likely had no ulterior motives.
Therefore, as long as it could change her destiny, accepting a master brought her no reason for hesitation.
One hour later, Li Ziwei took the two children away.
Li Xiaojun and Ni Xiaotang continued their journey on a flying boat toward the Qingtian Immortal Domain.
The villagers who had helped He Tu Lingshan and her brother were rewarded by the Ziwei Great Emperor.
After leaving the village, Li Ziwei led He Tu Lingshan and He Tu Lingyu directly to the Empress’s palace.
Seeing the people in the Empress’s palace bow respectfully to Li Ziwei and call her "Your Majesty," He Tu Lingshan finally believed that Li Ziwei was indeed the Ziwei Great Emperor.
Thinking that she had actually become the disciple of the Ziwei Great Emperor almost made He Tu Lingshan faint from excitement.
“Lingshan, you two should stay here and learn knowledge alongside them for now.”
Li Ziwei brought He Tu Lingshan to the palace where Li Xiaojun lived.
In Li Xiaojun’s palace, there were many children, all of whom were there to keep him company so he wouldn’t feel lonely. He enjoyed the joys of family life.
Although Li Xiaojun was not present, the children still had to learn every day.
On another side, Li Xiaojun and Ni Xiaotang leisurely flew toward the Qingtian Immortal Domain.
Every time they passed a large city, Li Xiaojun would stop for a couple of days to have fun, buying delicious food and fun items to place in the system space.
As time passed, six months went by.
Li Xiaojun and Ni Xiaotang finally arrived at the Qingtian Immortal Domain.
“Teacher, if you want to see beast tribe creatures, I can take you in directly. Why wait in line and buy tickets?” Ni Xiaotang said as she followed behind Li Xiaojun in the botanical and zoological garden.
As one of the four saints of the Empress, she could enter directly by revealing her identity, avoiding the need to wait in line.
Of course, the main reason was to avoid waiting; they had just stood in line for three hours to get in.
“What do you know?”
Li Xiaojun did not explain.
Ni Xiaotang had a special identity; if she revealed it, it would be too conspicuous.
Next, it took a week for Li Xiaojun to visit the entire botanical and zoological garden.
After seeing the dinosaur-like beast tribe creatures with his own eyes, he could finally confirm that the dinosaurs that appeared 230 million years ago and went extinct 60 million years ago on Earth were indeed beast tribe creatures.
He just didn’t know how the dinosaurs on Earth became extinct.
The answer given by Earth scientists was meteorite impact, but if the dinosaurs were beast tribe creatures, then it would be hard for a meteorite impact to wipe them out.
“Xiaotang, I need the eggs of these beast tribe creatures. Can you get me a few of each kind?”
After looking at the dinosaur beasts, Li Xiaojun made his request to Ni Xiaotang.
