Traveling through the millennium: creating a prosperous dynasty with you

The sect master stepped forward, full of vigilance, and loudly questioned these uninvited guests: "Who are you? Why are you looking for me?"

The man in black said nothing, but silently handed the scroll in his hand to the sect leader and said in an extremely cold voice: "Your Excellency should read this scroll first before making a final conclusion."

The sect leader took the scroll suspiciously and slowly unfolded it. However, when he saw the contents recorded on the scroll, he could not help but feel a surge of shock in his heart - he saw that it clearly recorded a shocking secret about the Nanzhao Palace!

His face suddenly changed, and he hurriedly folded up the scroll and returned it to the man in black, saying in a deep voice: "I'm sorry, I didn't see anything just now. If you have nothing else to do, I will leave first." After that, he turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait a minute!" The man in black shouted, stretched out his hand to block the sect master's way, and said in a firm tone, "Please make sure to finish reading this volume."

The master's eyes began to flicker, and it was obvious that he was going through a fierce struggle. After hesitating for a moment, he finally said, "Do you really want me to see this?"

"That's right." The man in black nodded slightly to show his affirmation. "We have come from afar to tell you this news."

"But this is clearly your Nanzhao's business. What does it have to do with me, a native of Anguo?" The sect leader looked at the group of mysterious people in front of him with suspicion, as if he wanted to find a clue from their expressions.

"Are you unfamiliar with this totem?" one of the men in black asked, pointing at the pattern in his hand.

"I really don't know!" The sect leader shook his head, indicating that he knew nothing.

"If we're not mistaken, you have such a totem on your right shoulder." Another man in black said in a firm tone.

The sect leader frowned slightly, and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes: "Stop talking nonsense. How could I not know my own body? Not at all! Who are you? Why are you looking for me? If you don't explain clearly, I'm leaving." His voice was filled with anger, and his footsteps moved towards the door.

However, just as he was about to step out of the door, he heard the leader of the men in black shout coldly: "Catch him!"

Following this order, several men in black quickly stepped forward like ghosts, and in a blink of an eye, they trapped the sect leader. Their movements were in unison, and they were obviously elite soldiers who had undergone long-term training.

The leader of the men in black walked up to the leader, his eyes cold and ruthless. He roughly pulled open the leader's shirt, revealing his strong arms. Then, he began to carefully search for something on the leader's right shoulder.

The leader of the sect felt a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart, and he tried to struggle hard. However, the black-clothed men were numerous and powerful, and his every struggle was easily resolved, and for a moment he was unable to break free.

Just as Xu Zhen and An Chen were about to rush into the room to rescue him, the leader of the men in black suddenly pulled out a sharp dagger. With a flash of cold light, he cut a deep gash on his hand without hesitation.

Blood immediately gushed out of the wound and dripped down the fingertips. The bright red liquid seemed to drip onto the heart of the sect master, causing his heartbeat to speed up involuntarily.

At this time, the dagger in the black-clad leader's hand did not stop. He carefully controlled the flow of blood, allowing it to fall on the sect leader's right shoulder. As the blood continued to drip, a vague pattern gradually emerged on the sect leader's right shoulder...

In an instant, an amazing miracle happened!

Originally, the seemingly ordinary skin gradually showed a clearly discernible totem under the penetration of blood. This totem was exactly the same as the one drawn on the paper, as if it had grown from the master's body.

It turned out that many years ago, a thrilling battle for the throne had broken out in Nanzhao. In order to fight for the throne, many princes fought cruelly and bloodily. In this power struggle, members of the royal family were involved and suffered heavy casualties.

However, in this chaotic situation, only the eldest son of the emperor was particularly special. Not only did he have a son, but more importantly, he did not have too much desire for the throne.

When the monarch expressed his intention to make him the crown prince, he responded calmly: "The monarch is still young, and I have no interest in the throne." Therefore, the position of crown prince of Nanzhao Kingdom was not established for a long time.

Unexpectedly, as time went by and the princes grew up, the open and secret struggles among them became more and more fierce, and their intensity was even not inferior to that of the princes during the reign of Emperor Anguo.

What was even more strange was that, although all the princes were married, except for the eldest prince who had a son, the others only had two princesses. As a result, the eldest prince became the focus of everyone's attack and suffered the most serious damage.

The king was really at a loss, so he had to carefully send the eldest prince and his youngest son out of the palace. Unfortunately, the confidential information was accidentally leaked, and they encountered rounds of assassination attempts along the way.

The number of people sent by the monarch to protect them was reduced through repeated assassinations until all of them were killed.

Since then, the king lost contact with them, and although he kept sending people to search everywhere, he still found nothing.

By the time the monarch finally pacified all the rebellious princes, his eldest prince and youngest grandson had been missing for two years.

Fortunately, the monarch himself was still in good health, so he waited for nearly twenty years.

"Why are you so sure it is me?" the sect leader asked puzzledly.

"This is because an old Taoist priest once told the king that when the time is right, they will naturally be able to meet again." One of them replied.

"Are you talking about my master? This is ridiculous! He passed away many years ago. How could such a thing happen?" The man shook his head in disbelief.

"That's exactly what the old Taoist said more than ten years ago. He even informed the king of all your situations. However, he said at that time that the time to take you back had not yet come." Another person explained.

"Could it be that my master really figured it out? But why has he never mentioned this to me, and even my father doesn't know about it..." The man fell into deep thought. ? "

"This scroll was made by the king! And the old Taoist priest put a tight seal on it. He once told the king that when the lock opened by itself, the time would be ripe. Sure enough, more than two months ago, the scroll broke by itself without any warning. So the king sent us here to find you."

"This sounds like a made-up fairy tale. Why are you so sure you're looking for me?"

"As I said just now, the old Taoist priest told the king your father's name and your own name. 'Ghost Lord' and 'Master of the Sect', such unique and rare titles, I'm afraid you two are the only ones in the entire An Kingdom. In addition, the totem on your shoulder is a secret technique unique to Nanzhao. It can only be made visible by the blood of someone who has taken a certain special medicine for a long time."

"How come a totem appeared on my arm without me knowing when? Didn't you use some kind of sleight of hand to put it there?" the sect leader asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"This is the unique mark of the Nanzhao royal family. It is innate and there is absolutely no possibility of human forgery." The man in black opposite answered firmly.

"What do you mean by saying that? What if someone else also has this totem?" The sect leader was still a little skeptical.

"It is absolutely impossible for other people to possess this kind of totem. Only men in the Nanzhao royal family are born with such a mark. And the higher the talent, the clearer and more visible the totem will be." The other party emphasized again.

Hearing this, An Chen and Xu Zhen, who were watching the surveillance camera, stared at the mysterious totem in amazement, their hearts filled with disbelief.

Xu Zhen couldn't help but exclaimed: "Is there really such a magical thing in the world?"

An Chen said thoughtfully: "Maybe the national teacher knows the secret."

Xu Zhen looked at the scroll in the surveillance video and was filled with emotion: "The scroll given by this old Taoist priest can actually unlock automatically and predict time. It's simply too magical!"

An Chen nodded in agreement: "But in comparison, Zhenzhen, you are much better than them for being able to come here and having that incredible spatial ability!"

Xu Zhen smiled slightly and said, "That's right, the Jurchens also have a divine witch! The world is so big that there are all kinds of things. Today really opened my eyes!"

The sect leader was also confused by what the man in black said. The scroll did indeed write about the reasons why he and his father were stranded outside, as well as the totem mark on his body.

His mind was in a state of confusion and he could not think. He said to the man in black, "What you said is too bizarre, and it happened too suddenly for me. I need some quiet time to think carefully."

The leader of the men in black said, "You are our little grandson. We have been following you for a long time. The king did not want to disturb you, but His Majesty is not feeling well now, and he is waiting for you to return immediately."

Sect Master: "Since you have been following me for quite some time, you should all know what I am doing now. I am no longer a free man, I am a subordinate of the goddess. No matter what happens, I will inform him first."

The leader of the men in black said: "The king already knows about these things. If you have any concerns, the king said you can take the goddess back with you."

Sect Master: "Are you serious? Well, let me go back to ask the master now."

The men in black looked at each other and nodded in agreement. They said, "Little grandson, the king said that after we find the young master, we will protect him. From now on, we are his people."

After saying this, the man in black knelt down and paid great respect to the sect leader.

Sect Master: "Absolutely not, I——"

Before he could finish his words, a female voice suddenly appeared in the room: "Take it, and we'll talk when you come back!"

The man in black was so scared that he drew his sword to protect him and asked sternly, "Who? Come out!"

The leader motioned for them to be quiet, and he said to the air, "Yes."

"My dear, who are you talking to?"

"My Lord! Apart from the goddess, who else can talk through the air?"

The man in black had heard many legends about the goddess, but today was the first time he saw her.

No wonder the old Taoist priest asked them to wait until the time was right before coming to look for her. It was said that the goddess had only appeared in the past few months. If they came too early, their young master might not have met the goddess yet. They were in imminent danger in Nanzhao, and without this relationship, the goddess would never have come to support them.

The leader of the sect brought the men in black back to the Guishamen compound and went to the study to meet Xu Zhen and An Chen. Although they were curious about the goddess, these men in black were the king's personal guards, with strict discipline, and they would never dare to look up at their master.

Xu Zhen: "I know everything that happened just now. If the totem thing is true, whether you go back or not depends on your personal wish."

The leader of the sect said, "Master, I want to go back to the village. After my father left, I never went into his room again. I want to go there to see if there are any clues left behind."

Xu Zhen: "Of course, the national teacher is nearby, so we can go ask him about the totem."

Sect Master: “But there is still a lot to do here.”

Xu Zhen: "Find someone to take over these few days. No wonder the people you bring up are so good, it turns out they have good genes!"

Sect leader: "Gene? I have seen this word in a book. Just think of it as the master praising us. Okay, I will find my brothers to hand over the work. This matter is indeed very serious, and I must investigate it thoroughly."

Xu Zhen: "We have some things to deal with in the capital these few days. You can take advantage of these few days to do the handover. Come find us when you are done with your work. It is already late, so we will go back home first."

After the sect leader sent the two away, the brothers in the yard were also awakened.

Fortunately, the master prepared a set of camouflage uniforms for each man in black before leaving. He didn't want his brothers to know about these things yet, so he told them: The master asked him to do something very important and assigned him a team of secret guards.

The brothers had no doubt and went back to sleep.

One night without words, the next day.

The sect leader took the man in black to hand over the work at hand.

An Chen and Xu Zhen went to the palace to see the emperor and talk about the newspaper. The emperor was in a completely bad mood, and even though he was very interested and agreed, he refused to find someone to do it himself, and handed it over to the two of them.

The emperor's main point now is: I've worked hard to help you occupy the emperor's position, and the imperial teacher has gone out to play, so don't expect me to help you do anything anymore! An Chen was speechless.

The two returned home depressed again.

Unexpectedly, his house was so bustling at this time.
