Chapter 767: Chapter 769: East Island, Qiancheng Family (Part 7)
"Before this, we could have lived another five years," Qian Chengyan looked down and smiled at Qian Chengyunlong with a curl of his lips, "Father, these five years, we have already made a fortune..."
A pang of pain that seemed to pierce his heart made Qian Chengyunlong unable to free himself; in that moment, he seemed to age by decades...
"Father," Qian Chengyan’s heart harbored some guilt, "I’m sorry, for being an unfilial son, for making you..."
"Enough," Qian Chengyunlong waved his hand wearily, "I can’t bear to see you cut off from affection, so I will find someone to break the seal for you, even if it’s just for five years, to see you living happily is enough for me..."
This speech, as if using up all his strength, caused Qian Chengyunlong to fall to the ground, his once glossy black hair now suddenly streaked with white...
A sourness filled Qian Chengyan’s heart, the person he owed the most in this life was his father...
Just then, a faint voice came from outside the door, "Who told you that he has only five years to live?"
Qian Chengyunlong was startled and turned his head towards the figure in the sunset...
The woman approached in the glow, dressed in white like the snow, her indifferent face covered with a faint halo; her gaze fell on Qian Chengyunlong, and a mocking smile curled at her lips.
"I was just wondering why you would seal his strength, so it was for such a reason, a reason that really makes one bitterly smile. The mighty Heavenly Primordial Vein actually sealed..."
"Heavenly Primordial Vein?"
Qian Chengyunlong paused for a moment, confused, "What is the Heavenly Primordial Vein?"
Mu Ruyue was slightly startled, had knowledge really fallen behind so greatly over the years that even the existence of the Heavenly Primordial Vein was unknown?
The Heavenly Primordial Vein naturally gathers Qi, possessing vast strength without cultivation. Had it been found a millennium ago, it would have surely sparked a fierce scramble among all the powers.
And now, a Heavenly Primordial Vein was considered a wastrel...
"Let me put it this way, a millennium ago on the Central Continent, the emergence of a person with the Heavenly Primordial Vein caught the attention of all forces, who desperately wanted to take him under their wing."
However, no one knew that the Heavenly Primordial Vein was a genius she had cultivated herself, also someone close to her...
Regrettably, during a mission later, he died at the hands of a power, which was subsequently annihilated by her subordinates.
Only then did people truly understand who the Heavenly Primordial Vein truly belonged to...
Seeing a Heavenly Primordial Vein again now, her excitement was imaginable, and that’s why she had stayed with the Qiancheng family...
Unconsciously, she regarded the young man in front of her as the genius from a thousand years ago...
"Miss, is everything you said true?" Qian Chengyunlong was deeply shocked, "But, my son was born frail, so we had to seal him..."
"The body of the Heavenly Primordial Vein is indeed frail, but just one Peak of Mortal Stage Creation Pill is needed to successfully improve his Vein!"
Qian Chengyunlong was shocked, turned his head to look at the young man beside him, then his gaze fell on Mu Ruyue, "Although what the lady says makes sense, that Creation Pill..."
Mu Ruyue smiled faintly, her eyes lingering on Qian Chengyan’s delicate features, she said, punctuating each word, "Become my disciple, and I will save you!"
In her past life, her greatest regret was not taking that genius as her disciple, allowing him to depart this world so uneasily...
