Chapter 362: Young Zhe Tian
Chapter 362: Young Zhe Tian (fourth update)
It was as if the heavens were playing a joke on him, allowing him to possess the martial spirit of the Qiangu family, the hereditary lord of the Spirit Transmission Tower, but only giving him a mere fourth-level spirit power.
This fourth level of soul power can forget about returning to one's roots and may even be wiped out as a disgrace to the family.
The mother, whose dream was shattered, went completely crazy. With her beauty, she could have found a rich family, but she set her mind on the young master of the Qiangu family. In the end, she lost both her money and her life, and got nothing, and also wasted her youth and beauty.
After that, the child named Xiangnian went to school and worked while taking care of his crazy mother.
With his talent, he naturally could not go to famous schools such as Shrek and Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy, so he could only go to a remote, unknown school.
But his life was very happy. He met a girlfriend who loved him. They worked together to save money to buy souls, and studied together how to make their own battle armor.
Even though they didn't even have a one-character battle armor at that time, they had already named their respective four-character battle armors after each other.
At this point in the scene, a hint of mockery appeared in Long Jun's eyes, while Qiangu Dieting just stood there in a daze.
Qiangu Dieting knew that the girl hugging Xiang Nian in the picture was definitely not his mother Beigong Li.
And he could never have imagined that Qiangu Shilong would have such a past.
Qiangu Dieting had always thought that Qiangu Shilong was like him, the young master of the Qiangu family who had been the center of attention since birth. He did not expect that the Dragon King was as humble as dust in his early years.
The scenes in Long Jun's mind passed by quickly. A boy named Xiangnian and a girl named Xia Qing'er met and fell in love in a college, grew up together, and supported each other.
During this period, the girl gave the boy a silver flute and wrote her name on it with her own hands, saying that it symbolized their everlasting love.
After graduating from the Soul Master Academy, the two of them never left each other and supported each other.
Until the scene stopped when the boy saw his lover snuggling in the arms of another well-dressed man.
The young man was so angry that he immediately went up to argue, but was ruthlessly abandoned by his former lover.
"Xiang Nian, I am no longer the little girl who stood behind you and watched you draw the battle armor design. We have all grown up."
"Souls need money, battle armor needs money, and natural treasures also need money. What else can you give me besides those love words you've said countless times? You can't even let me have a home in Mingdu!"
"Mr. Li is the son of a cadre of the Spirit Pagoda. I have been with him for a month and he gave me a ten thousand year old soul. He also promised to help me forge a two-character battle armor!"
"I'm going to pursue my own happiness!"
The girl married into a wealthy family and achieved wealth, leaving the boy alone, disheartened and going home to visit his mother who had gone insane.
Looking back on my life, I have an unfortunate background, and I struggled to survive. I tried so hard, but in the end even my lover left me.
At that time, he didn't know who caused his misfortune, but he knew that if he could really become the young master of the Qiangu family, then all these misfortunes would not exist.
He wouldn't live in this pitifully small house, his mother wouldn't go crazy, he wouldn't be unable to buy souls, and he wouldn't be unable to buy battle armor.
Because he has no power, all those who have power become his targets.
Fortunately, there is always a way out. When he was filled with despair and hatred, a simple blood-colored ancient book suddenly appeared in his hands. After receiving a huge stimulation, his second martial soul finally appeared, one of the top evil martial souls, the Book of the Dead!
Afterwards, Qiangu Huangyu saw the young man in the picture using the power of the Book of the Dead to devour his mother.
"You crazy person!"
Qiangudieting cursed angrily. He could never have imagined that the great father in his memory, the father who was so loving to his mother, would actually commit the act of murdering his mother with his own hands.
The Dragon King did not make any excuses for his actions, but simply said, "As you can see, the Book of the Dead has the ability to devour other people and use their power for its own benefit."
"So, I need you." At the end of his words, the Dragon Lord once again set his gaze on Qiangu Huangyu.
Qiangu Dieting immediately blocked Qiangu Huangyu behind him and said in a cold voice, "In the eyes of the world, you are a peerless genius who cultivated to the level of Titled Douluo at the age of 25, but you only had four rings when you were 20 years old, you..."
The Dragon Lord said, "After awakening the Book of the Dead, I naturally turned those who deserved to die into my nutrients."
The picture in the mind suddenly changed. In a sea of fire, the boy's former lover knelt in front of him, holding a newborn baby, grabbing his trouser legs tightly and begging for his forgiveness.
But that Young Master Li had already turned into a cold corpse.
"Let me go, please, let me go, I still love you! It's all his fault, he forced me to marry him!"
Looking at the ridiculous and funny posture of his former lover, the young man just sighed, "How ugly!" Then he buried his youth with his own hands.
The boy played one last tune on the flute the girl gave him, mourning their past.
That was the first time that the boy felt so clearly the pleasure brought by power.
After one night, the boy finally broke through to the Titled Douluo. He changed his name from Xiang Nian to Qiangu Shilong, meaning that he would dedicate his whole life to the prosperity of the Qiangu family. Then he knelt in front of the Qiangu family's ancestral home for a long time.
Finally, the Qiangu family accepted Qiangu Shilong, who had reached the Titled Douluo at the age of only 25.
When Qian Gu Shi Long asked his family whether he could go to the Spirit Ascension Platform to ascend his spirit, he was told:
"Why go to the Spiritual Ascension Platform? You are a member of the Qiangu Family now, so just absorb the spiritual power directly."
Watching his nine spirit rings change from colorful to neat blood red, and recalling the time when he saved up money for a year but still couldn't buy a ticket to the lowest level of the Spirit Ascension Platform, he felt sad but also had a genuine pleasure.
This was the first time he clearly felt the taste of power.
From then on, the humble boy Xiang Nian died forever, and the one who remained was the son of the Spirit Transmission Tower's master, Zhetian Douluo Qiangu Shilong.
Since then, the young boy fell madly in love with those two feelings and kept pursuing them.
Crush the rules and dominate all living things.
But he is just an illegitimate child after all. No matter how outstanding he is, it is impossible for him to take over the position of the master of the Spirit Transmission Tower and the patriarch of the Qiangu Family.
However, as long as he uses the Book of the Dead to devour all the candidates ahead of him, wouldn't everyone become the master of the Spirit Tower and the patriarch of the Qiangu Family together?
