When little Gu Yanchuan suddenly heard these words, he was stunned and didn't know how to respond for a moment.

He stood there, his body trembling slightly, his heart filled with doubts and fear.

However, despite being extremely panicked, he still mustered up the courage to raise his head and meet the other person's gaze directly, hoping to find some clues through that unfamiliar face and figure out what was going on.

At this moment, Gu Yanchuan's little hands tightly grasped the corner of his father's clothes, as if that was his only support.

His eyes were full of vigilance, and he was ready to escape from this uneasy place at any time.

"You... who are you?" Gu Yanchuan asked stutteringly, with a hint of trembling in his voice.

"Why...why do I always feel like something is wrong with my life?"

The man slowly squatted down and looked at Gu Yanchuan at eye level.

His eyes were deep, as if containing endless secrets.

Looking at the innocent yet confused child in front of him, the man said softly, "Child, I can tell you the truth, but before that, you must be mentally prepared enough to accept it."

After hearing this, Gu Yanchuan nodded without hesitation.

Although he was still young, he showed extraordinary perseverance at this moment.

Seeing this, the man slowly opened his mouth and began to tell the shocking truth.

"Actually, you're not an ordinary child. You're the reincarnation of a very special star, possessing extraordinary abilities."

"Once these abilities awaken, they will have a huge impact on you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Yanchuan's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.

He stared blankly at the man in front of him, his mind blank.

Even Gu's father who was standing by was shocked. He had never imagined that his adopted son would have such a background.

The man continued, "But, child, you must know that when your abilities are fully awakened, you will face unprecedented dangers."

"Because by then, all forces will get wind of this and will use whatever means necessary to fight for you, attempting to use your power to achieve their own goals."

After hearing this, little Gu Yanchuan took a breath.

He didn't quite understand, and had never imagined that he would fall into such a terrible situation. He couldn't help but feel a deep sense of helplessness in his heart.

But he soon calmed down, took a deep breath, and then asked in a firm tone: "Then, uncle, what should I do to avoid this...?"

The man smiled slightly and gently reached out to stroke Gu Yanchuan's hair: "Don't be afraid, kid. The best thing to do right now is to forget about this matter for the time being and not let anyone notice that you are different."

Gu Yanchuan's face, which was originally considered handsome, was now filled with confusion, as if he was completely devastated by the sudden news.

His bright eyes also lost their former luster and became empty and lifeless.

Then, the expression on his face gradually changed. First, his lips trembled slightly, and then his whole body seemed to fall into a state of dementia.

Like a robot, he nodded again.

After a long while, he said slowly in an almost wooden voice: "I... understand."

When these four words came out of his mouth, they sounded so weak, as if each word was squeezed out with all his strength.

After saying that, he leaned limply against the wall behind him like a deflated ball.

"What happened to him?"

Father Gu's voice trembled slightly, and he looked at the mysterious man in black robe in front of him with horror.

The black robe seemed to be able to swallow everything, which was chilling.

The black-robed man had a blank expression on his face, his eyes cold as ice. He slowly said, "It's nothing serious. I just used some tricks to make him forget about it. Now, take him back and take good care of him. Once he's well, he'll be of great use in the future."

After saying that, the man in black robe stared at Gu's father closely, his gaze like two sharp arrows, piercing people's hearts.

Father Gu shuddered under the cold gaze and nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, yes. I understand. I'll do as you say!"

Then he carefully walked forward and picked up the unconscious Gu Yanchuan, and hurriedly left this terrifying place.

Time flies by like a fleeting moment.

The days passed one by one, as calm as a pool of stagnant water.

However, the Gu family is always shrouded in a shadow.

It is not good for Gu's father to be too close to Gu Yanchuan, nor is it good for him to be not close to Gu Yanchuan.

As for Gu Yanchuan, he seemed to have completely forgotten everything that happened that day.

He still lived a routine life every day, reading and writing as usual.

Only occasionally, in the dead of night, he would suddenly wake up from his sleep, with cold sweat on his forehead and muttering some unclear words, but in an instant he would fall asleep again, as if it was just a nightmare.

In the blink of an eye, Gu Yanchuan has grown to ten years old.

However, fate was cruel and played an extremely cruel joke on his mother.

Looking back, his mother was in her youth and should have had a wonderful life and unlimited possibilities.

However, because of the "pregnancy-changing beads" incident, she suffered the pain of miscarriage.

That sudden accident was like a sharp sword, ruthlessly piercing her originally healthy and energetic body, causing her severe damage.

However, even after experiencing such a tragic blow, out of deep grief and endless longing for her first child who passed away prematurely, her inner desire for a new life became even stronger.

So, even though she and Gu's father were just lovers and had no official relationship, she still chose to get pregnant again without hesitation and resolutely.

Moreover, knowing that it involves huge risks, she still bravely perseveres, just to be able to bring Gu Yanchuan safely into this world.

However, it is regrettable that since giving birth to Gu Yanchuan, her physical condition has begun to deteriorate rapidly and has become worse and worse.

Although he underwent a long period of careful recuperation and tried various methods and medicines to repair his damaged body, the trauma he had suffered was so severe that it had penetrated deep into his bone marrow, and no matter how hard he tried, it was difficult to fully recover.

In this way, day after day, year after year, time passes quietly like flowing water.

And her body gradually became fragile under the erosion of time and the torture of illness, and was as shaky as a candle in the wind.

In the end, she could no longer support her body and could only helplessly stay in bed all day, fighting an arduous life-and-death battle with the heavy disease.

Ten-year-old Gu Yanchuan encountered a major change in his life - his mother, who was only 35 years old, left this world forever.

The sky that day seemed to have sensed his sadness, and it cast a gloomy shadow, making people feel extremely depressed.

After hearing the news, Gu's father hurried over and took Gu Yanchuan, who looked confused and helpless, back to the home he had never set foot in.

It was not until this moment that the young Gu Yanchuan realized the cruel fact that he was actually an unrecognized illegitimate child.

When Gu Yanchuan followed his father into the strange and luxurious mansion, he immediately felt countless strange gazes falling on him like needles.

There was contempt, disgust, and indifference in those eyes, which made him shiver.

He clenched his small fists tightly, his nails digging deep into his palms, his heart filled with resentment towards his father.

If it weren't for the irresponsible behavior of this man, how could his mother leave him at such a young age?

He also hated himself. He felt that his arrival had killed his mother.

However, life at home did not change with Gu Yanchuan's arrival, but became more difficult.

Gu's father's wife hated him to the core and regarded him as a thorn in her side. She was always looking for opportunities to make things difficult for him.
