Chapter 1210 - 1210 1197 Reunion of Kinfolk

Chapter 1210: Chapter 1197: Reunion of Kinfolk Chapter 1210: Chapter 1197: Reunion of Kinfolk Bu Rong Jiuli couldn’t resist or dodge; a seemingly delicate finger gently touched his brow, and then everything in the youth’s eyes dissipated into darkness.

As Jiuli’s consciousness felt lost in the darkness, a speck of golden light appeared, rapidly expanding and emitting a radiant glow. It transformed from insignificance to magnificence, turning into a golden sun that dispelled all the darkness.

The abrupt shift from darkness to light took Jiuli a while to adjust to, and then he saw an entity standing within the sun, a giant with dragon snakes coiling around it like thunder,

Although both could be called giants, this giant, compared to the one he had transformed into through his cultivation, was a creature of an entirely different dimension with no basis for comparison.

“What is this?” Jiuli muttered as he gazed at the being that could transform into the sun. His worldviews were violently shaken; he had never conceived of such a powerful being.

But no sooner had his question arisen than everything before his eyes vanished, and the simple treehouse reappeared in his view, including the black-haired child who was smiling at him.

“How do you feel about the first gift I gave you?”

“I want to know, that existence…”

“But a real existence, I’m not good at illusions.”

“How can it be so powerful!”

“There’s no need to marvel at that. If you cultivate seriously, one day, you might reach a realm like that.”

“Is it really possible for me?” Jiuli’s face showed self-doubt, he was truly shaken by what he had just seen.

“Every creature with Spiritual Intelligence has the possibility,” Muria answered with a smile.

“That’s no different from not saying anything at all.” Jiuli grumbled discontentedly upon hearing Muria’s response.

“How do you speak to a mentor? Don’t you even know the most basic courtesy?”

Upon hearing his first student’s complaint, Muria raised his hand indifferently and sliced downward, the careless wind consolidating into a whip. With a “snap”, it struck Jiuli’s forehead driven by his will, leaving a red mark.

“Ow!”

The young man instinctively covered his forehead, unable to hide a look of shame and annoyance. Since he had overcome the nightmare of his childhood, no one had treated him like this, but today, he experienced being reprimanded once again.

“Just now, I was broadening your horizons, encouraging you to aim higher and not to be restricted by this narrow world before you. Now, I present to you your second gift.”

Without giving Jiuli a chance to evade, Muria extended his palm and gently pierced toward the center of his chest. The Radiant golden light shimmered at Muria’s fingertip and then extinguished.

“That’s it.”

“Teacher,” Jiuli awkwardly articulated the title that he should address Muria with at this moment, awkwardly touching his chest. He felt a strange tingling sensation at the spot Muria had touched,

“What have you done to me?”

“I gave you your second gift; you might want to take a look.”

So Jiuli pulled open his clothes and saw golden scales glittering on his chest, where you could barely see the outline of his ribs, growing rapidly.

“What is this?” Jiuli looked up at Muria, there was no doubt that these Golden Scales were the second gift.

“Something that could save your life at a critical moment,” Muria said nonchalantly, his gaze slanting toward the canopy, as if he could see through the thick bark to the sky.

“To save my life,” Hearing Muria say this, the young man, feeling the solidity of the golden scales upon touching them, immediately let go of the unease in his heart.

Because of his cultivation, he was accustomed to growing non-human biological tissues on his body, not rejecting them like normal people would, especially since these scales purportedly could save his life; therefore, he had even fewer objections.

“Of course, if your enemies are too much stronger than you, they still won’t save you, so don’t think that this toy will save you under any circumstances.”

“I see!” While he understood, Jiuli couldn’t help but feel a tinge of disappointment in his eyes. Having an indestructible defense would broaden the possibilities of what he could do enormously.

“But rest assured, if you really encounter an enemy you can’t beat or escape from, I can use this to save you. If I’m late, I can also avenge you, and incidentally, collect your body.”

Muria revealed an unscrupulous smile, speaking cheerfully. Although he had forcefully taken a student with a certain purpose in mind, he wouldn’t skimp on the necessary care.

At the very least, he had now marked his student, and anyone who provoked Jiuli was also provoking him.

According to Titan’s rules, if Jiuli were to be killed by a being of the same level or not much stronger, he would not intervene, as if he had never had this disciple.

But if Jiuli were bullied in an unfair fight, by the strong against the weak, then there would be no question; he would become the oppressor of the bullies.

“Thank you, Teacher.” Jiuli did not take Muria’s words to heart at the moment, nor did he consider them important; he thought the dragon was merely teasing him.

“Let’s go, it’s time for you to head home, and I’ll take a look at what kind of place you live in.”

…

“Seriously, you’re way too low-key, no matter what, you’re a little Earth God who oversees a few hundred people in this world. Do you really have such a rough time at home? Choosing such a low-end way to travel back?”

The handsome child with black hair and golden pupils stood on the ship’s deck, watching the youth who was shielding him from the crowded flow of people, and couldn’t help but complain.

“No choice, the Space Gate is temporarily controlled by the military of my country, and private individuals can’t come and go freely here. To pass through, you can only take a boat certified by the military.”

Jiuli explained somewhat helplessly to his reluctantly acknowledged Teacher that this was not at all an issue of his own ability.

“At the end of the day, you’re just too weak, your status back home is still not high enough.”

With a light touch, Muria released his mental power and swept over the ferry he was currently on board.

He never thought that he would one day travel through a Space Gate on such a lowly crafted vessel.

At that time, he had suggested entering Jiuli’s hometown with an extraordinary demeanor. But the youth had expressed strong opposition at the time, and then came the ceaseless, low-voiced pleading, leading to the current situation.”

An ordinary human youth boarded an overcrowded ferry, resembling a can of sardines, with a dragon in tow, headed toward a region with highly developed civilization and technology.

“Hey, bro, is this your little brother? He’s so young, and you’re bringing him to the New World for a trip? Aren’t you afraid your parents will beat you up?”

On the crowded deck, a youth who had been squeezed over took one look at Muria, who was being tightly protected, and then said to Jiuli with a chuckle.

“No, I…” Seeing that someone mistook him and Muria for brothers, Jiuli suddenly felt embarrassed. He looked nothing like Muria, apart from both having black hair. There was no other bit of similarity.

“Do I look like his brother to you?” Muria, who had also heard the remark, lifted his head and looked at the over-friendly youth with a hint of surprise, and his handsome face was immediately caught by the youth’s gaze.

“Sorry, little sir, my mistake,” the youth said, after taking a careful look at Muria’s face and then reassessing Jiuli’s features, shaking his head firmly as he dismissed the comment he had just made, “You two are definitely not brothers.”

Hearing this, Jiuli didn’t even want to respond; his appearance was above average among ordinary people, but compared to the human form Muria had taken, he seemed very ordinary.

“No, you’re not wrong, he and I are indeed brothers of different fathers and mothers,” Muria said with a grin.

“Different fathers and mothers?” The youth paused for a moment upon hearing Muria’s words, then realized and laughed out loud.

… About a quarter of an hour later, the nearly bursting ferry docked, and the throng of people swarmed off, going their separate ways in various vehicles.

“Teacher, I need to explain my family situation to you. Due to special reasons, my mother didn’t live with me after I was born. Instead, she left and started a family with a…”

As Jiuli and Muria got into a car, Jiuli started the engine and turned to explain to Muria, who sat in the back seat.

“Okay, I get it, single-parent family, so now you live with an old bachelor?”

“No, that’s not it. My father died before I came of age, so my mother took me in to raise me, but she’s already started a new family with another man, so… ”

“Alright, I understand,” Muria said, rubbing his brow, relieved that it wasn’t an orphanage.

“The Mr. Huan, who started a family with my mother, had his own children before he met her.”

“So, you have a bunch of half-brothers and sisters from different fathers?”

“That’s right.”

“I was just kidding earlier,” Muria said helplessly.

“I know.”

During their casual conversation, Jiuli drove through the streets and alleys until they stopped in front of a very ordinary small villa.

“We’re here.”

“This is your house, huh,” Muria said, looking at the wooden building with a yard, “Pretty average.”

“Like I said, I’m just a very mediocre, ordinary young man,” the youth said as he got out of the car and opened the door for Muria, showing full courtesy.

“I take back what I just said,” Muria said, eyes narrowing as he watched a golden-haired loli burst out from the villa.

“Brother!” Hearing the sound of the car stopping and then rushing out the door, the little loli didn’t pay attention to the good-looking peer but ran to Jiuli’s side and hugged his leg.

“Is this one of your half-siblings?” Muria asked, looking at the golden-haired loli, his shock clearly showing. This could no longer be explained by coincidence.
