Being knocked down by the Heavenly Dao while ascending
Chapter 56 Extra 2
(Fifteen perspectives)
Since childhood, Fifteen knew that they were not ordinary people.
In other words, they only knew the term ordinary people after the young master came out. Before that, they always thought that the Murong clan, no, to be precise, the Murong clan was the whole world.
Their clan is called Murong. In fact, few of their members have their own appearance. It’s not that they are born faceless monsters, but it is a choice for the clan members, that is, to choose between appearance and innate magical powers. The right to choose is not in their hands, but in the hands of their parents.
Like the Negative Spirits, although they are born with power, they are also limited. The Negative Spirits limit the expansion of their tribe by self-commitment, allowing a portion of their people to reproduce. That is the Negative Spirits’ own choice, a decision they made for the millions of ordinary people in the world.
But their Murong clan is very different. There are almost no old females in their clan, especially those with both sons and daughters. This is because the Murong clan will age rapidly from the moment they conceive. The day a child is born is roughly the day the mother dies. Such a cruel way of birth should be rejected, but parents always love their children, so more often the father will share life with the mother and use the vitality of both to delay the mother’s aging.
In short, the birth of each Murong child is equivalent to the death of a mother, and if two children are born, the parents are almost impossible to survive.
Therefore, the Murong tribe hardly needs interference from outsiders. If they do not expand outward and use the lives of people from other tribes to replenish their vitality, they will eventually become extinct.
If this had continued for a long time, the Murong tribe would have disappeared in the long river of time and would not have been able to survive to this day.
Since ancient times, in order to preserve the bloodline of the tribe, a part of the people in the tribe would be chosen to be without natural talents or supernatural powers.
A Murong fetus without any innate magical powers is just like an ordinary fetus. The mother’s energy is fully capable of supporting the child, and both can survive.
However, apart from ordinary people, a group that is blessed by nature, which group can make the Heavenly Dao so biased and allow them to take advantage of loopholes?
Once the children of the Murong clan give up their innate magical powers, they may appear to be no different from ordinary people, but in reality they will die at the latest in their forties.
Everyone will die eventually. The Murong people have to exchange their bloodline for people with innate magical powers and a short lifespan. For thousands of years, the Murong people have used this method to keep their bloodline passed down.
The eldest master, Jiang Yuansheng, is just such an ordinary person, and is also the young master’s Achilles’ heel.
Because of the Murong people’s birth method of exchanging life for life, there have been very few twins born in the tribe since the history of the Murong people. This is because the mother’s vitality is limited and not enough to support two children. Even if the father’s vitality is also taken care of, the vitality required by two children at the same time is not as simple as two.
The twins were doomed to die. In desperation, the children’s parents made the decision to abandon one of the children while still in the mother’s womb and choose to let only one child become a member of the Murong clan.
The person who was abandoned was the eldest master.
The second young master, now the young master, was very upset about this after learning about it, and repeatedly blamed his parents for giving up on his eldest brother so easily.
Even though the eldest young master repeatedly stated that he didn’t mind the matter, the second young master did not let it go.
Everyone always thinks that after a long time, the second young master will forget about it.
As time went by, everyone started to take this matter lightly. In fact, this was not a rare thing in the Murong clan. There were only two kinds of clan members, one was born to plunder their parents, and the other was born to be owed by their parents.
Until one day, the eldest son said that he wanted to leave the Murong clan and go see the outside world.
It’s not that there were no disciples who left the clan, but those who left were all members of the Murong clan. People like the eldest young master who had no natural talents or supernatural powers were not recognized as members of the clan, and were… not allowed to leave.
It was the second young master who overcame all objections and allowed the eldest young master to leave.
Not long after this, the second young master became the young master of the tribe and led the tribe members to leave the Murong tribe. He asked everyone to replace those who died of illness or accidents. The tribe members turned into the appearance of those people and lived in their place.
At first, no one knew why the young master did this, they just thought it was one of the ways the young master asked them to hide.
Later, the tribesmen who disguised themselves as ordinary people reproduced like ordinary people. They found that after combining with ordinary people, the maternal stress of the born tribesmen would decrease, and both could survive. It was no longer the mother’s job to decide whether the children were tribesmen or ordinary people.
It is still unknown what will happen to ordinary people, but the members of the tribe can not only inherit the talents of the Murong tribe, but can even inherit some of the talents of their father or mother.
Murong, the guardian of Yongshan Academy, is the child born from the union of a Murong clan member and an ordinary cultivator. This child not only has the appearance of an ordinary person, but more importantly, she has inherited the Murong clan’s innate magical powers and is born with the ability to change her face.
This is almost unbelievable, because if the children of the Murong family have the innate magical powers, they cannot create their own appearance. The place where the face originally belongs is chaos and there is nothing.
Only those who have no inherited talent can have their own face.
The people of the Murong clan finally understood that if they wanted the Murong clan to continue to reproduce, the best way was to combine with ordinary humans with high cultivation levels, so that ordinary people favored by heaven would bear the heavenly punishment brought about by their talents.
This should be exciting.
However, after the eldest master learned about this, he went to find the young master, and the two had a big argument in the study.
Later, the eldest son left in anger, and the young master locked himself in the room for half a year.
Half a year later, the young master led everyone to a place called “Fuyuan Tianqian”. They didn’t know what the young master was going to do, but the young master had never made a wrong decision, and they believed in the young master.
The people of Fuyuan Tianqian are very strong. The young master was afraid that they would get hurt, so he asked everyone to stay on the periphery and went alone to meet the man who was said to be the clan leader.
No one knew what they talked about, but when the young master came out, he was holding a half-grown child in his arms. When they were about to leave, the eldest master appeared.
He was accompanied by another person, who didn’t seem to have a high level of cultivation either. The two of them together might not even be his match.
But everyone knew that that was the eldest master, the person the young master always felt sorry for in his heart, so they didn’t do anything.
But when the eldest master saw the child in the young master’s arms, he seemed to have misunderstood something.
The eldest son rushed into the valley, and then came out in a daze. He asked the young master: “Why did you become like this?!”
He didn’t know what the young master was thinking, but the young master became even more silent.
Looking at the eldest young master taking the child away from the young master, Fifteen began to understand that the young master who used to be so high-spirited in the Murong clan was disappearing little by little.
The young master did not explain from beginning to end, and only said one sentence: “Recognize him as your master, or he will die.”
The young master paused for a moment, then left without looking back after hearing this.
They all returned to Xuantian Gate in silence.
Life went on as usual, and not long after, the young master received a letter.
They didn’t know where the letter came from, but they all knew who it came from.
Because of the young master’s out-of-control expression, the eldest young master would only leave because of that traitor.
That will always be a thorn in the young master’s heart.
As expected, the young master left Xuantianmen in a hurry with the foolish young master of Xuantianmen. They moved very slowly, because every time they arrived at a place, they kept asking for information, trying to find clues about the eldest young master.
They were already dissatisfied with the eldest young master, and of course they were not devoted to him, until finally, the young master told them – his life and the eldest young master’s life were tied together. The Murong clan’s paternal and maternal shared life method was used by him on the two brothers, but now the eldest brother sent a farewell letter, saying that the eldest brother was going to die.
How could the group of people dare to delay, so they found the small fishing village.
However, their presence still failed to prevent what happened, and the young master still died.
.
Fifteen knelt in front of the tombstone and, like ordinary people, scattered a handful of yellow paper money on the grave.
The young master said he committed suicide, but in fact they all knew that it was just that the time had come.
The extra twenty years of life were stolen back by the young master. That was the last tenderness of the young master.
As the thunder rolled, half of the eldest young master’s shattered soul rushed into the young master’s body due to the secret method of the Murong clan. This was the key to the young master’s survival.
However, because of this, the young master’s life span, which was only forty years left, was shortened by half.
The Murong tribe fell silent as a result.
But in the end, the young master chose to commit suicide when his life was about to end and disbanded the Murong clan. From then on, they were no longer members of the Murong clan.
Shang Nanyi, who had the same face as the young master, came back, and the study was about to be demolished.
He knew that Fourteen had received the last order from the young master before his death – to burn all the paintings in the study.
And he, before Fourteen, stole a painting from there, which was the last painting painted by the Young Master – the Eldest Young Master.
The young master painted a picture for every member of the Murong clan, but Fifteen knew that this one was the most special.
Because the place for hanging the painting was empty from the beginning.
But now, he wanted to pay tribute to the young master, but he could only pay tribute to this young master who was not the young master.
Because the Murong people who possess magical powers do not have their own faces.
The eldest young master and the young master are twins. The eldest young master looks like the young master.
How could this painting not be of their young master?
