Playing the Pig and Eating the Tiger: My Funny System is Too Fierce

"Your Highness, something bad has happened!"

A eunuch ran into the imperial study in a panic, his face pale. Mo Yunchen was teaching Mo Tianyou to read, and frowned slightly when he heard this.

"What's the panic?"

"It's... it's at the imperial mausoleum..." the eunuch's voice trembled, "A strange phenomenon has appeared in the tomb of the late emperor!"

The Third Miss and Mo Yunchen exchanged a glance, each seeing surprise in the other's eyes. This was the first time something unusual had occurred since the temple recognized its master.

"Tianyou, did you sense anything?" asked the third lady.

Mo Tianyou suddenly became very serious: "Grandpa Emperor... is calling me..."

At this moment, the old Taoist priest from Kunlun came rushing over: "Oh no! Someone is disturbing the balance between the Yin and Yang worlds!"

It turned out that a strange portal had suddenly appeared in the tomb of the previous emperor. The portal emitted a dark green light and seemed to lead to an unknown world.

"A portal?" Miss San hugged her son nervously. "Could it be related to the remnants of the temple from last time?"

"No," the old Taoist said solemnly, "this is an even more ancient power. If I'm not mistaken..." He paused, "it's the work of the ancient gods!"

This news was like a thunderclap, leaving everyone stunned. The ancient gods? Hadn't they vanished long ago?

But what was even more surprising was that Mo Tianyou suddenly struggled to get off the ground: "I want to go...Grandpa Huang has something to say..."

"No!" Miss San immediately refused. "It's too dangerous!"

But Mo Tianyou showed a rare stubbornness: "I have to go...it's very important..."

Just as everyone was arguing, the portal suddenly emitted a strong vibration! An illusory figure stepped out of it. It was the heroic spirit of the late emperor!

"Father!" Mo Yunchen immediately knelt down.

The spirit of the late emperor looked towards Mo Tianyou, his voice old but majestic: "Tianyou, come here."

Under everyone's astonished gaze, Mo Tianyou took small steps toward the late emperor. The temple jade pendant on his chest suddenly glowed, unexpectedly resonating with the late emperor's shadow!

"Sure enough..." the late emperor sighed, "The bloodline of the gods has finally awakened."

“What?!” Everyone was shocked.

It turns out that this is the biggest secret: the royal bloodline actually contains the power of the ancient gods! However, this power has been dormant until Mo Tianyou was recognized by the temple and truly awakened.

“So the temple chose Tianyou because…” The third lady suddenly realized.

"More than that," the late emperor said, "the awakening of the gods means a new era is coming. But at the same time..." He paused, "it also means a greater crisis!"

Sure enough, at this moment, the portal suddenly fluctuated violently! Several dark shadows rushed out from it. They were actually several mysterious people holding strange weapons.

"It's here!" The leader sneered, "The bloodline of the gods has finally been found!"

"Looking for death!" Mo Yunchen drew his sword, but the strength of those people was far beyond his imagination, and they broke through the defense line in a blink of an eye.

In this critical moment, Mo Tianyou suddenly raised his hand. The temple jade pendant shone brightly, and a golden barrier instantly formed! The mysterious men's attacks landed on the barrier, but they were completely unable to break through.

"Is this... the power of the gods?" The third lady looked at her son in surprise.

But what was even more surprising was that the heroic spirit of the late emperor suddenly slapped out with a palm! A powerful force burst out, actually repelling all those mysterious people.

"I didn't expect you to be so strong even after death," the leader sneered, "You are indeed the bloodline of the gods. But..." He suddenly took out a strange bead, "With this, it's the time of your death!"

The bead emitted a blood-red light, and it could actually restrain the power of the gods! Just as Mo Tianyou's barrier was about to be breached, an accident suddenly occurred.

The temple jade pendant suddenly detached from Mo Tianyou's chest and floated in the air. A majestic voice rang out: "How dare you! How dare you be so presumptuous in front of the temple!"

It was the Lord of the Temple! His will unexpectedly awakened at the critical moment, to protect the new master.

"Just a mere regret," the leader said disdainfully, "how dare you stop the will of the gods?"

"How dare you!" the temple master shouted angrily, "You have already betrayed the gods, what qualifications do you have to talk about will?!"

It turns out that these people are traitors of the Protoss. They betrayed the Protoss's orthodoxy in pursuit of power. Now that they have discovered that Mo Tianyou has Protoss blood, they will naturally not let him go.

"In that case," the leader sneered, "let's destroy them together!"

As he spoke, he crushed the bead violently. A terrifying force erupted, threatening to tear the entire space apart!

"Not good!" The old Taoist's face changed drastically. "He wants to die together with us!"

At this critical moment, the temple jade pendant suddenly resonated with Mo Tianyou. An unprecedented force erupted, not only blocking the destructive force, but also annihilating the traitors in one fell swoop!

"Is it over?" the third young lady asked nervously.

"It's over for now," the old Taoist sighed, "but this is just the beginning. Now that the bloodline of the gods has awakened, it will surely attract more covetous people."

The late emperor's spirit nodded, "That's why I appeared as a warning. Tianyou must not only protect the destiny and the temple, but also inherit the will of the gods. What a heavy responsibility this is!"

Looking at her innocent son in her arms, the Third Miss felt a mixture of emotions. Was fate too harsh on this child?

But Mo Tianyou smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, mother... I can do it..."

The uncanny determination in this childish voice moved everyone. Was this fate's choice? Leaving such a naive child to shoulder such a heavy responsibility?

"But there is one more thing," the late emperor suddenly said, "the Protoss still has many secrets. Tianyou, you still have to go to a place."

“Where?”

"The Holy Land of the Gods," the late emperor said, "has everything you need. But it's not the right time yet. Let's talk about it when you're older."

With that, the late emperor's spirit gradually dissipated. The portal closed, as if nothing had happened. Only a few corpses on the ground proved that all this was real.

"Finally, we're safe," the third lady breathed a sigh of relief and looked at her son, "but you must be careful next time."

"Don't worry," the old Taoist said, "With the temple's protection and the blood of the gods, this child's future is limitless."

Mo Yunchen nodded: "But he still needs to be trained well. With so many heavy responsibilities on his shoulders, we, as elders, need to be more attentive."

Looking at the sleeping child in front of them, everyone was filled with emotion. Who could have imagined that such an innocent little person could be burdened with such a great mission?

But perhaps this is fate: the more important a person is, the more tests he or she has to endure.
