When You Want to Sleep, a Pillow Arrives — Just What Is the Young Master’s Identity?
“Jiejie...”
At this scene, Lin Tian’s fists clenched tight, his expression turning somewhat ugly, an uncomfortable feeling of anger welling up in his heart.
Those words had slipped out of him subconsciously — they weren’t what he himself wanted to say.
Lin Tian knew this was the obsession of the body’s original owner acting up, purely an instinctive reaction to seeing all this.
After all, Lin Qiuhan counted as the only person in the original Lin Tian’s memories who had treated him well.
Though she was usually strict and severe with him, she was genuinely good to him — not cold like the rest of the clan, nor did she look down on him.
The original Lin Tian had also always harbored a certain special admiration for Lin Qiuhan.
Jiejie was too outstanding, while he was an out-and-out good-for-nothing, carrying a deep-seated sense of inferiority.
Witnessing such a scene today, that obsession naturally felt unwilling and deeply uncomfortable.
The current Lin Tian, in his past life, had been the Godslayer Divine Lord. To resolve the original owner’s obsession, he had naturally put in considerable effort.
A few days ago, in a lecture hall at the Superior Dao Academy.
He had pointed out the flaws in several treasured arts demonstrated by a few Elders, and completed them — thoroughly stunning everyone present.
This had also slightly changed Lin Qiuhan’s impression of him; she thought Lin Tian had turned over a new leaf and was willing to delve into cultivation matters.
Lin Qiuhan was very gratified.
She thought her persuasion had finally taken effect, that this little brother was starting to give people less worry.
Lin Tian was quite satisfied with this result too.
In his original plan, that was merely the first step in gradually changing her opinion of him.
He was an existence of the Enlightened King Realm — winning over a little girl, how hard could that be?
What made Lin Tian’s gaze turn somewhat cold, however, was this young man who had suddenly appeared today — just who was he?
Daring to cut in from the side?
Simply courting death!
But soon, Lin Tian’s gaze sharpened, landing on the woman in white behind that young man.
Though this woman’s face was covered by a light veil, the faintly outlined contours of her features already possessed a soul-stirring beauty.
Of course, the main thing was that he discovered the special nature of this woman in white’s physique.
“Could it be the Nine Yin Mysterious Enchantress Physique recorded in the ancient texts...”
“The legendary peerless Human Cauldron.”
“Never thought I’d actually run into one.”
Soon, Lin Tian lowered his head, not letting anyone notice his abnormality.
He only felt the aura was very similar.
He had seen it in ancient texts back then — ordinary people definitely couldn’t identify it.
Still, he wasn’t certain; he planned to investigate further when he had time.
After all, this kind of Human Cauldron was something even an Enlightened King would be moved by!
“Could this man be the young daren they spoke of? What luck...”
“What a pity — you ran into me.”
Lin Tian said in his heart, his expression quickly returning to calm, letting no one detect his abnormality.
What surprised him somewhat, though, was why that young man was staring at him with such a strange gaze?
It faintly gave him a hair-raising feeling.
Soon, Lin Tian’s strange feeling vanished, as if it had been his imagination.
“Lin Qiuhan — that’s quite a lovely name.”
Meanwhile, in the great hall, that young man spoke.
His handsome, refined features carried a hint of a light smile, making it hard for many of the women at the doorway to look away.
The so-called divine bones and immortal bearing were nothing more than this.
“Th-thank you for your praise, daren.”
Lin Qiuhan stammered slightly, her face flushing faintly red.
Though she usually served as a teacher, instructing disciples at the Superior Dao Academy with great authority,
in a situation like today’s, she felt tremendous nervousness.
This young gongzi before her, like a divine being, was an existence whom even the Founding Ancestor referred to himself as an old servant before.
One could imagine — such origins were simply terrifying beyond measure.
How could she not be nervous? How could her voice not tremble?
“This damned obsession...”
Seeing this, Lin Tian cursed inwardly again, unable to stop a surge of jealousy and unwillingness from rising in him.
The crowd in the hall saw this and smiled without a word.
Including Ming Lao, many of them were more than eager for Lin Qiuhan to form a connection with Gu Changge.
Without needing Ming Lao’s introduction, everyone knew Gu Changge’s identity had to be the heaven-shaking kind.
“This gongzi is no flood or savage beast — I won’t eat you. Why should Miss Lin be nervous?”
Gu Changge’s expression was natural, his light smile unchanged as he spoke again, his gaze moving away from Lin Qiuhan before him.
“Then I’ll trouble Miss Lin to show Qingge and me around the area.”
Though he said that,
in his heart he was already shouting brilliant.
The matter was far more than just a coincidence.
He had just been planning to search for the newly appeared Fortuitous One, and here one had bumped right into him.
Truly, when you want to sleep, a pillow delivers itself.
He could also take this opportunity to sound out this Lin Qiuhan for some information.
Two hundred Fortuity points — that wasn’t something an ordinary person could have.
And that youth who had secretly spied on him just now had over five hundred points.
Which template was it this time?
...
After Gu Changge left the great hall, the tense atmosphere shrouding the place finally dissipated.
Everyone quietly let out a breath of relief.
Including the Lin Family’s Master and the Great Elder, all of them had actually been very nervous — after all, it was their first time facing an existence from the Beyond. To say they weren’t nervous would be impossible.
“Founding Ancestor, just what is this young daren’s identity?”
After some catching up, the Great Elder, carrying a complex mix of emotion, curiosity, and more, couldn’t help but ask respectfully.
Hearing this question, many young men and women outside the hall also pricked up their ears, listening intently — they were simply too curious.
Even Lin Tian, who had been secretly watching Ming Lao all along, grew solemn.
From this Lin Family ancestor who had come from the Overworld, he faintly sensed an aura similar to his own back in the day, yet it also didn’t quite seem so.
This left him puzzled.
As for this question, Ming Lao had nothing much to hide — it was no secret. He smiled warmly and said to the gathered descendants, “The gongzi is an existence destined to take command of the Cult of Immortality and the Family of Immortals. If any of you are fortunate enough to catch the gongzi’s eye, you will surely transform from fish to dragon, shed your mortal dust, and soar into the nine heavens in a single leap...”
