God Capital!

Duanmu Family!

The death of the Crown Prince caused such a huge commotion and made everyone in the Feather Transformation God Dynasty really nervous.

The entire God Capital was really busy. They collected corpses, dealt with the dust and ashes, and cleared up the battlefield.

All of this only ended once night fell.

The civilians were asleep but one of the large families in God Capital, the Duanmu Family, was still awake.

After Siya’s husband returned. He had been summoned by the old ancestor.

“Duanmu Yue, you are here.” The old ancestor opened his eyes and smiled when he saw Duanmu Yue.

“Old Ancestor, sorry that I interrupted your dream.” Duanmu Yue apologized.

“I did have a good dream.” He smiled.

Duanmu Yue said, “Does old ancestor want to share it with me?”

“I dreamt about my youth. When I was young I was as handsome as you are now and I desired so so much.” He said slowly.

“Old ancestor is still really amazing.” Duanmu Yue said sincerely.

“No, I am already really old and my life is coming to an end.” Old ancestor smiled as he waved. He spoke the truth which made Duanmu Yue’s heart sink.

“How can that be? Old ancestor still has a long way to go.” Duanmu Yue said gently.

“You are a really delightful kid, but do you know how old I am now?” He asked.

Duanmu Yue shook his head. He really didn’t know the answer to that.

“I am… 30,000 years old.” He said.

Duanmu Yue looked at the old ancestor in shock. 30,000 years old?

“Is that very shocking?” The old ancestor smiled.

“Eh, based on what I know, even if one reached the 33 stages of Legend, one can’t live so long, right?” Duanmu Yue hesitated.

“No. 20,000 is already really decent. If you cultivated life techniques you can extend a few thousand years but not to 30,000.” The old ancestor shook his head.

“So, how did old ancestor live for so long?” Duanmu Yue suppressed his sadness and asked curiously.

“Do you see that tree outside?” The old ancestor pointed.

Duanmu Yue looked out. He was familiar with that tree and he had played under it when he was young.

It was a black tree without many branches. It was just one trunk that had stood there for who knows how many years.

“This is the Soul Raising Tree. It has been nourishing my body and soul and allowed me to live.” The old ancestor said calmly. He looked at the Soul Raising Tree with a lot of emotion.

“Soul Raising Tree?” Duanmu Yue was shocked.

“Where did you get it from?” Duanmu Yue asked.

“Let me tell you a story. ” The old ancestor added.

Duanmu Yue listened intently.

“30,000 years ago, there were two talented and hot-blooded young men who wanted to do well.”

“So, they rebelled!”

“They rebelled together with all the people who were being suppressed!”

“The two young men finally succeeded but they argued with one another because of the throne.”

“In the end, he won and became the emperor while I created the Duanmu Family and moved into the God Capital.”

The old ancestor talked about his past.

Duanmu Yue listened closely.

“But when he became the emperor, he became more and more wary and wanted to wipe out my Duanmu Family. If I hadn’t been around, Duanmu Family would have been long gone.” The old ancestor said calmly.

“He is the founder of Feather Transformation God Dynasty?” Duanmu Yue asked.

“Yes. He isn’t dead.” Old ancestor said calmly.

“What?” Duanmu Yue looked on in shock.

“If old ancestor uses the Soul Raising Tree to live till such an age, then what about him?” Duanmu Yue asked.

“I don’t know but it might come from the same place.” The old ancestor sighed.

“What place?” Duanmu Yue asked curiously.

Old ancestor wanted to reply since he was about to die, so it didn’t matter anymore.

But then, someone knocked on the door.

The old ancestor was stunned and after looking at the door, he saw someone familiar. He became solemn. “Open the door for the envoy!”

“Envoy, what envoy?” Duanmu Yue was confused but he still went to open the door.

He opened it and saw a fierce-looking man with a red watch.

The surface continued to tick and spin.
