Chapter 176: Slaying to the Dragon Palace, snatching away the Dragon Maiden?
"Heavenly Human Appearance..."
It was not just that Gu Mingyue's talent had refreshed on Gu Jiangming's Seek Immortality Interface; inside the villa, Jiu Jiu was also looking at the text on her own Seek Immortality Interface, then revealed a gentle smile.
Perhaps anyone in this world, upon seeing their offspring possess such talent, would reveal a smile just like Jiu Jiu, right? As for the battle outside the villa, Jiu Jiu had not paid much attention to it once she sensed Gu Jiangming's arrival.
Although it was Liu Moran who was entangled outside the villa, Jiu Jiu also possessed a sense of pride in her heart.
It was not just Jiu Jiu; every one of Gu Jiangming's women seemed to feel that she was the one who came first.
There was no need to even mention Jiu Jiu; in that lifetime as the Dao Venerable of Mount Shu, Jiu Jiu had already given birth to Gu Mingyue for Gu Jiangming.
As for Long Xi...
Long Xi also felt that she was the one who came first; after all, she had watched Gu Jiangming through many lifetimes of Reincarnation.
If there had to be someone who felt she was not the one who came first, that would probably be Wang Qinghe? It was one thing to be unable to compete with Jiu Jiu in the era of the Dao Venerable of Mount Shu, but to be unable to compete with Liu Moran in this era as well...
However, the reason Jiu Jiu could ignore Liu Moran was due to another type of reason: Jiu Jiu's strength was stronger than Liu Moran's. Although the margin of strength was limited, Jiu Jiu had already turned an eighty-point exam paper into a perfect score.
As for going any further...
In Jiu Jiu's view, unless she were like Gu Mingyue, favored by some Heaven and Earth principle and became a god responsible for the operation of a part of the Heaven and Earth rules, only then would it be possible for Jiu Jiu to take one step, or even two steps, further.
Gu Jiangming entered the villa here, and even though he received some eye-rolls from Jiu Jiu, Gu Jiangming still looked at his daughter, Gu Mingyue, happily.
As for Jiu Jiu's eye-rolls...
He was already stepping on several boats; what was wrong with receiving a few eye-rolls? Jiu Jiu had worked so hard to give birth to a daughter for him; what was wrong with him receiving a few eye-rolls? Gu Jiangming and Jiu Jiu never had many words between them from beginning to end, but they had spent an entire era together, and there was no need for many words between them.
Only Liu Moran outside the villa, looking at the scene inside the villa at this moment, bit her lip tightly.
In terms of Liu Moran's true heart, she wanted to drive away all the women near Gu Jiangming, but at this moment, as the Heaven and Earth phenomena gradually dispersed, Liu Moran also sensed that the strength of that woman inside the villa was likely slightly superior to her own.
When Gu Nianmo arrived at the villa, he saw Liu Moran standing in the Void, wondering what she was thinking about.
Regarding the matters between his parents, Gu Nianmo could not say much; he had originally wanted to enter the villa to see if he had gained a younger brother or a younger sister.
However, after seeing Liu Moran's appearance, Gu Nianmo just accompanied her on the side.
Compared to Liu Moran's personality, Jiu Jiu actually invited Liu Moran and her son to enter the villa shortly after. Compared to Liu Moran's temperament, Jiu Jiu really did have the feeling of someone sitting firmly on the fishing platform.
This was because Jiu Jiu had already been stimulated by Long Xi, and could be considered to have already understood Gu Jiangming's nature.
The atmosphere when Liu Moran and Jiu Jiu were in the same room could not be described as anything but awkward, which left Gu Nianmo in a dilemma.
For one, he had to take care of his mother's emotions; for another, Gu Nianmo had not expected that his wish would actually come true, and that he really had gained a younger sister.
Compared to Gu Shengxi, Gu Nianmo's love for Gu Mingyue could be said to be even greater.
After all, while younger brothers were also very cute, younger sisters were the ones who truly needed to be pampered!
Especially after Gu Nianmo learned of Gu Mingyue's talent from Gu Jiangming, Gu Nianmo did not notice anything else, only noticing that his younger sister would inevitably grow up amidst the covetousness of others.
Come to think of it, in their big family, it seemed that no matter which child was born, they faced such an encounter? Gu Nianmo loved Gu Mingyue dearly, but due to Liu Moran, he could only find opportunities to sneakily go and see his younger sister every day.
Gu Mingyue was born with innate wisdom, and coupled with the fact that Gu Nianmo truly possessed a sense of affinity, Gu Mingyue gradually accepted the fact that she had an older brother who appeared out of thin air.
And Liu Moran naturally would not fail to notice Gu Nianmo's behavior; regarding this foolish son of hers, Liu Moran did not know what else to say.
In Liu Moran's view, it was one thing that this foolish son of hers did not stand with her, but no matter if it was an extra younger brother or an extra younger sister, he just happily played the role of a good older brother.
It was only because the Qilin Divine Blood on Gu Nianmo could not be fake; otherwise, Liu Moran would have had to suspect whether Gu Nianmo was truly her own son.
Time flew by, and half a year passed.
【Although you have done your best to divide your time to accompany Liu Moran and Jiu Jiu, wanting to enjoy the blessings of a harmonious family is clearly not such a simple matter.】
【Even though you have challenged the limits of your kidneys time and time again, your love interests, Liu Moran and Jiu Jiu, still find each other extremely unpleasant to look at.】
【When you were unaware, Liu Moran and Jiu Jiu had dozens of confrontations.】
【Because they did not want to make you worry, both Jiu Jiu and Liu Moran restrained their strength and did not expand the scale of their confrontations.】
【And after one confrontation after another, Liu Moran also realized that there was still a gap between her and Jiu Jiu.】
【Although they had initially accepted each other's existence, neither Liu Moran nor Jiu Jiu was willing to let the other have a higher status than herself.】
【But as it looks now, your love interest Jiu Jiu is clearly sitting firmly on the fishing platform.】
【You returned to Niankong Villa with Jiu Jiu, Liu Moran, and the siblings Gu Nianmo and Gu Mingyue.】
【The matters in Beidi have not been completely resolved, and there are still countless things within the Human Race that need to be handled. After dealing with your love interests for a short while, you once again threw yourself into your Dao path.】
【Under your efforts, the territories that had been abandoned by the Human Race began to slowly return.】
【The humans who had been staying in the Human Territory began to continuously walk out. They walked on this land where you had cleared the Demon Race threats, living under this Heaven and Earth as the masters of this land for the first time.】
【You encroached upon countless territories originally belonging to the Demon Race, but because your strength was formidable, those Demon Races were forced to accept the result of relocating their own territories.】
【In this process, you fought a total of 106 times, and the number of Heaven and Earth Enlightenment practitioners who died at your hands has already exceeded one hundred.】
【As long as they could see the situation clearly, the Demon Races had all tacitly accepted that the Human Race occupied a piece of land that covered almost one-tenth of the Heaven and Earth.】
【The interior of the Human Race was divided into four regions: Eastern Continent, Beidi, Southern Kingdom, and Western Lands.】
【For mortals, they could not walk through any one of these regions in their entire lives.】【Only practitioners at the Nascent Soul Stage, if they were willing to waste all their lifespan, would have a possibility of traveling through the territories of the Human Race.】
【This is an incredible achievement; you have done what should have been accomplished by the Human Emperor Supreme of the Human Race.】
【But you are also very clear that the current landscape of the Human Race is entirely due to your suppression; once you fall, it will by no means be an easy task for the Human Race to occupy such a fertile land.】
【After completely expelling the Demon Race from the original territories of the Human Race, you did not show a great desire for expansion; you only annihilated or expelled the many Demon Races existing in the Human territories one by one.】
【In places you do not know, countless Demon Races have breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.】
【You often sit in command of the Human North Territory, not because Niankong Villa in Beidi is your home in this era, but even more because you are clear that not far from Beidi is the territory of the Qilin clan.】
【You have also thought about letting the Qilin clan move, but you can also feel that deep within the Qilin clan, there is clearly an aura that is not inferior to yours.】
【Even in your perception, that aura sometimes brings you a sense of threat.】
【Under your investigation, you have already learned that in the current Qilin clan, there is still an acquaintance of yours, Zhou Kai!】
【Although you do not know what kind of secrets Zhou Kai is hiding, you have already investigated that within a certain range, Zhou Kai can exert strength equivalent to the Heavenly Human realm.】
【Zhou Kai claims that he is already at the strength of the Ascension Realm, but both he and you are clear that his Ascension Realm is still lacking a little bit.】
【You are wary of Zhou Kai's strength; you guess that the reason Zhou Kai can exert the strength of the Heavenly Human realm is because he is located within the territory of the Qilin clan.】
【You speculate that if Zhou Kai could allow the Qilin race to rule seventy percent of the entire Heaven and Earth, he would truly break through to the Heavenly Human Realm.】
【This is a method that relies on the race to break through limits, but it is a pity that the reproductive ability of the Qilin race is truly too poor.】
【Or rather, the more powerful a race is in this world, the worse its reproductive ability.】
【Wanting to let the Qilin rule seventy percent of Heaven and Earth is not as good as counting on Zhou Kai himself to thoroughly break through that sliver of a threshold, and subsequently truly exist alongside Heaven.】
【At the same time, you also recorded this method of using the race to break through to the Heavenly Human Realm; you feel that your descendant Gu Shengxi might be able to use it in the future.】
【No one knows that it is not because you do not want to lay a foundation for the Human Race and for Gu Shengxi, but that the current population of the Human Race is limited, and the current Human Race territory is not entirely ruled by the Human Race.】
【In the mountain forests and marshlands, there are more or less Demon Race hiding within.】
【But you are only a Path-Opener, not a nanny for the Human Race; just as you have acted and done, the Human Race must strive for self-improvement, and those Demon Race scattered within the Human Race territory are a test you have given to the Human Race.】
【Perhaps, when the footsteps of the Human Race have walked across the entire Human Race territory and driven away all the Demon Race within the Human Race territory, that will be the time when the Human Race can autonomously expand to the outside world.】
【You know that time will be very long, and it is even possible that you will never see it again.】
【In this new era, new Heaven and Earth Enlightenment have been born one after another; you gradually realize that what the various races are fighting for is not only land, but also Heaven!】
【In the territory of the Human Race, the cultivation of the Human Race will be easier; this is the Dao belonging to one race, which can be called the Human Dao.】
【The only one who can control the Human Dao is the Human Emperor Supreme who gathers the destiny of the race; even though your strength has also reached this stage, you cannot control the Human Dao of the Human Race.】
【As you watch this piece of territory belonging to the Human Race begin to prosper, your Dao becomes increasingly complete.】
【You are very clear that you are only one opportunity away from truly stepping into the Realm of Immortality and achieving the Heavenly Human Realm.】
【But you also vaguely have a feeling that your desire to break through to the Heavenly Human Realm is not a smooth path; Heaven and Earth are noble, and the Heavenly Human Realm is already capable of being equal to Heaven. Heaven and Earth do not allow such an awesome person to exist, just as a mortal does not allow a roundworm that can destroy their internal organs to be born inside their body.】
【Perhaps when you break through to the Heavenly Human Realm, Heaven and Earth will actively create coincidences, letting all the hidden Supreme in Heaven and Earth come together to crusade against you.】
【It is just that you are not in a hurry to break through; the strength of the Supreme realm is already barely enough for you now.】
【At the same time, in the process of you integrating the Human Race, there were also constantly Demon Race requesting to be on good terms with the Human Race; for these Demon Race who wanted to be on good terms with the Human Race, you did not have much targeting, and instead were happy to see it happen.】
【You are very clear that if a race wants to maintain vitality under the great power of time, it needs a certain amount of pressure.】
【These Demon Race being on good terms with the Human Race also means that they can move freely within the Human Race territory; as long as they do not violate the laws of the Human Race, they can also walk in the prosperous human world.】
【These Demon Race know that you are very satisfied with them being on good terms with the Human Race, but you do not like the attitude of these Demon Race.】
【You also do not know what these races are thinking; one after another, they are rushing to send the heaven-favored daughters of their own races to the Human Race, and even to the cities near Niankong Villa.】
【You really want to tell these races that you are not that kind of person, but you are unable to say this sentence frankly.】
【You thought of Long Xi, thought of that silly Long Xi who felt that since you were her Believer, she should protect you, accompany you, and bear children for you.】
【Niankong Villa, Qinghe Villa, and Jingwei Villa represent your three love affinities.】
【But the Human Race has the division of the four lands of East, South, West, and North; why can you not build another Longmian Villa?】
【You decide...】
【1: Maintain the status quo; having already had three wives, you are exhausted every day, and your kidneys do not allow you to bring a fourth love affinity over.】
【2: A great man lives between Heaven and Earth, how can he be stopped by gossip?】
【Storm the Dragon Palace, seize the treasures of that Dragon Palace, snatch the beloved daughter of that old Dragon King, and let that old Dragon King understand what is meant by "thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river; do not bully the young for being poor."】
【3: Personally go to the Dragon Palace, go to see Long Xi, and then act according to the attitudes of Long Xi and the old Dragon King.】
On this day, Gu Jiangming looked at the lines of text refreshing on his panel, and then looked at the three options given to him on the Mie Changsheng panel; Gu Jiangming's expression was extremely complex for a moment.
He now somewhat wants to have Mie Changsheng explain to him, what is meant by "do not bully the young for being poor"? As for Long Xi...
Gu Jiangming said that it is of course impossible to have no thoughts at all! (End of chapter)
