Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Heavenly Dao Umbrella, Seven Kills Annihilation

Chapter 149 A Gift Left by My Future Self?

Jiang Nian and Qian Renxue exchanged a glance, their heads flashing with big question marks.

Thirty thousand years?
Have we run into a madman?
Qian Renxue, who had grown up with Jiang Nian since childhood, breathed a sigh of relief. She had really thought that the two of them knew each other before.

Turns out I was just scaring myself.

The woman in white robes brushed a strand of hair behind her ear and said with a gentle smile, "Brother Jiang Nian, there are things you left behind in the temple. You'll understand in a moment."

"By the way, my name is Qingyu, but you used to call me Xiaoqing."

As she finished speaking, a hint of reminiscence flashed in her eyes.

Her fair fingers touched the ponytail behind her head, and a smile appeared on her cool face. Then she raised her palm, and the scene in front of them changed. Behind her, an ancient temple appeared out of thin air.

The young woman turned around gracefully and glanced back at Jiang Nian.

After a moment, he took a step.

Seeing this, Qian Renxue grabbed the boy's arm, pouted, and said irritably, "Xiao Jiang, that woman doesn't look normal at all!"

"Don't be fooled by her!"

The little golden retriever was a bit exasperated, gently tapping his head, his eyes constantly showing increasing vigilance.

"Let's go in and take a look. I don't think there's any danger."

"That woman named Qingyu shouldn't have any ill intentions towards us."

Jiang Nian hesitated as he looked at the Green Snake Temple in front of him. There was a statue on the temple, depicting a man and a woman holding an umbrella.

Although neither of them had a face, the umbrella was exactly the shape of their martial soul.

This is a bit intriguing.

"Idiot! I think she... never mind, let's go, let's go." The blond guy snorted and took his arm, walking inside.

When he encountered that woman, he didn't forget to raise his neck and glare at her.

Jiang Nian pretended not to see anything and kept a distance from Xiao Qing.

Before long, they arrived at an altar.

The girl named Qingyu stood in the center of the altar and said softly, "There's something here that can help you... Oh, and this diary..."

As she spoke, she took a box from a bookshelf not far away.

The box was very clean; it was obvious that it was wiped down frequently.

Qingyu stepped forward and handed the box to Jiang Nian.

After doing all this, she gave him a deep look, then turned and walked towards the side hall.

He said nothing, only leaving behind an unreadable look.

Qian Renxue leaned closer, touching her chin, still feeling somewhat incredulous.

A diary spanning 30,000 years?

This seems pretty absurd.

Jiang opened it gently, and a notebook appeared inside.

After handing the box to the little golden retriever, he gently turned to the first page.

[Thirty thousand years from now, I first want to apologize to you... I took and used a priceless treasure that was originally meant for me when I was born into this time and space. But don't be discouraged, I've left you a backup plan...]

Page 2, Page 3, Page 4...
Half an hour later, Jiang Nian finished reading all the diaries.

When digesting the knowledge, his mind was somewhat dazed.

The little golden retriever stood on tiptoe, looking left and right, its eyes filled with deep confusion.

"Xiao Jiang, why are you staring at a notebook with no words on it for so long?"

"Or is it that only you can see it?"

Jiang Nian snapped out of his reverie, closed the diary, and put it into his storage soul tool. He turned his head and smiled, "Yes, that should be it."

Qian Renxue pursed her lips, then asked with some curiosity, "Sigh! Did you write it?"

"That's not right... When I met you, you were still very young, not even as tall as me."

Jiang Nian patted her head, indicating that he would explain later, as he had something very important to do right now. All her previous confusion was now resolved, and she even had some clarity about the future.

Jiang Nian looked at the girl praying for blessings in the side hall.

"Miss Qingyu, could you please take care of this person beside me..."

"Girlfriend!" The little golden retriever glared at him, then turned its head away angrily.

Is there any need to hesitate?!
Another entry was made in the little notebook.

"Um... this is troublesome." Jiang Nian smiled awkwardly, and when he met the eyes of the girl in the white robe, he realized that her clothes were somewhat similar to what he was wearing.

"Of course." Qingyu smiled gently and turned to look at Qian Renxue.

"Tch, I don't need her to take care of me." The little golden retriever pouted, then realized something and suddenly looked up into the boy's eyes: "You... what are you going to do?"

"I have to leave for a bit, I'll be back soon."

Jiang Nian spoke calmly, casually taking a drop of blood from his fingertip and dripping it onto the center of the altar.

Rumble!
For some reason, the altar had opened a hole. From above, it was a layer of silver light, and there seemed to be a hidden world inside.

"Xiao Jiang!" Qian Renxue grabbed his arm, feeling flustered. After hesitating for a few seconds, she let go: "Explain yourself clearly. What is the reason?"

"And, is it dangerous?"

When will you be able to come back?

Jiang Nian fell silent, then turned around and gently embraced the girl's delicate body, whispering in her ear, "Soon, believe me."

"How about you just wait for me here? I promise nothing dangerous will happen."

Qian Renxue's face lacked its usual vibrant spirit; her eyes were eerily calm, as if she were suppressing some emotion.

All the words I wanted to say were summed up in a single, "Mm."

She smiled, her voice gentler than ever before.

"I'll wait for you to come back."

Jiang Nian kissed the little golden retriever on the head, then turned and jumped off the altar.

Swish!
His figure disappeared.

Only the two of them remained in the entire temple.

Qingyu's eyes flickered with complex emotions, her vertical pupils flashing, and she pursed her lips, appearing somewhat silent.

Qian Renxue sat there without saying a word, staring blankly at the spot where Jiang Nian had left, her lips moving slightly.

"If you won't let me go... I'll wait for you to come back here."

Qingyu looked at Qian Renxue, whose golden hair shone brightly, and sat cross-legged on the ground in a daze, her mind drifting back to events from a very distant era.

The two women were quiet, neither arguing nor making a fuss, and neither paid any attention to the other.

Here.

Jiang Nian, his head spinning, regained his senses. He looked at the small island in front of him and stepped onto it.

It was surrounded by ocean, with no land in sight.

After taking two steps, the island suddenly started to shake.

In the blink of an eye, a silver spirit rose from the sea.

"Long time no see... oh no, in this era, we don't even know each other yet..."

Jiang Nian looked up and stared at the silvery soul, his mind going blank for a moment.

"Use your Martial Soul. I've been waiting for this day for a long time."

"If you don't appear soon, perhaps my consciousness will completely dissipate..."

As he spoke, the wisp of spirit surrounded Jiang Nian's sixth spirit ring.

Click, click, click!
The black spirit ring shattered, and a silver-gold spirit ring appeared in its place.
