Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 1611: Grandchild Of Destiny (3) Su Yu had been to Starfall Mountain several times.

He had even killed there.

But he had never discovered anything.

"That place is normal most of the time, but when it rains...

the storm...

and the thunderclaps...

are exceptionally loud and fierce.

" "Isn't that a normal phenomenon?

" Su Long shook his head, "How is that normal?

There is only thunder without the rain.

More importantly, the thunderclaps will grow louder when you lie down and listen to the ground.

" Su Yu asked, "But...

isn't that normal?

" "Fool.

" Su Long said, "Have you never been to a battlefield?

What you hear when you place your ear on the ground is the vibration from enemy movement.

For example, the movement of enemy cavalry will be loud when you listen to the ground.

But try doing that for airborne enemies.

Are you supposed to hear the flapping wings of your enemies from the ground?

" Was that the case?

Su Yu was unsure.

He had never paid much attention to this matter.

Su Long said, "Thus, I suspected that the thunderclaps came from the underground.

Back then, I even tried digging through the ground.

I thought there was a hidden treasure vault there.

But I found nothing!

" Su Long shook his head and said, "I was confused back then, but when I returned to Nanyuan recently, I saw the floating ruin.

It was seemingly hidden in between the cracks of space.

After that, I started suspecting that there was such a ruin at Starfall Mountain as well.

" Su Yu blanked out.

Back then, he had used the Starfall Mountain as the basis of his scheme.

As a result, numerous people went there looking for the so-called ruin.

However, nothing was found.

Su Yu was the one who had found the hidden vault of the Divine Skywing Sect there.

But his old man was telling him that there might really be a ruin there.

"Father, are you serious?

" "What stupid question is that?

Of course I'm serious!

" As Su Long continued cooking with his big pan, he said, "Alright, stop cutting me off.

Tell me.

Have you discovered the golden book in your head?

" "Yes.

" "Has the book helped in your rapid growth?

" "Yes.

" "I knew it!

" Su Long grinned and said, "I knew that was a treasure.

I suspected that there was a reason for that thing to drop there.

Perhaps it dropped after an expert killed someone, but if that was the case, where had that expert been?

Thus, I have been suspecting that the book was there looking for something.

A ruin?

Or something else?

Was the book trying to return home?

It is said that all treasures will develop a certain degree of sentience.

And it is normal for something to want to return to its roots.

Am I right?

" Once again, Su Yu blanked out.

Right.

The Book of Time could really be returning home when it fell from the heavens.

The Time Sage died, and there is a ruin of hers at the Starfall Mountain.

Thus, the Book of Time returned in search of its home.

Ultimately, my old man picked it up!

If the book in his mind was really the Book of Time, it should be an incomparably powerful weapon.

Was it possible that the book had exhausted its strength after traveling through time to return home?

Was that why it required the blood essence of numerous races to react?

Was the blood essence its source of energy to repair itself?

Things were starting to make a lot of sense.

Perhaps the Time Sage had been alive all this while.

She had been fighting above the net for many years.

Perhaps her opponent was the one Liu Hong had inherited from.

Both died at the same time, resulting in their legacies appearing at the same time!

I received the legacy of the Time Sage, while Liu Hong received the legacy of Time Sage's enemy!

This is a likely scenario!

Numerous possibilities emerged in Su Yu's mind.

Or perhaps Liu Hong had also received the legacy of the Time Sage.

The Time Sage was the only person to die in this confrontation.

Both Su Yu and Liu Hong were sharing the legacy of the Time Sage, and it would only be complete together.

Was that the case?

The Book of Time was too valuable a weapon.

Su Yu reasoned that such a weapon would not leave its master unless its master was dead.

But hadn't the Time Sage disappeared during the ancient past?

Only now did Su Yu find out that his biggest fortuitous encounter to date had actually originated from his old man.

Good heavens!

Su Yu couldn't believe it.

He had thought of countless scenarios in the past.

Perhaps his mother had faked her death.

Perhaps his mother was s super expert.

But no.

That was absolute nonsense.

He had thought that he might have a powerful ancestor.

But that was absolute nonsense as well.

His ancestors were all commoners.

He had indeed benefited from his elder like a prodigal son, but not from his ancestors.

Rather, it was his weak father.

The same weak father he could kill with a sneeze.

"Father, you missed out on such a big fortuitous encounter!

" Su Long snorted and said, "What nonsense.

What's yours is mine.

When I hit you, would you dare to hit back?

" As if to demonstrate the point, he hit Su Yu with his oily pan.

Su Yu didn't know what to say anymore.

Su Long laughed and said, "Kid, this is the true fortuitous encounter.

You're the one fighting for your life out there, while I can relax back home and wait for you to return in glory.

What can I say?

Destiny and luck love me.

I can't even reject their love.

" Su Long continued, "I have been hiding this matter all these years.

I have never dared to mention it all these years.

Now that you're aware, aren't experts capable of altering memories?

Remove these memories from my head.

I don't want to lose sleep over this anymore.

This way, I won't have to nervously empty my mind each time I encounter an expert anymore.

" Su Yu frowned and said, "Memory alteration is a very difficult procedure...

" "Anything is better than forcefully hiding it in my mind.

Can you do it or not?

Don't bother saving face with excuses if you can't.

" Su Yu rolled his eyes and nodded, "I can, but I can't eliminate the memories entirely.

I'll only seal them.

You will forget them until someone mentions something related to these memories.

" "That works.

Just don't mention these memories after sealing them away.

Nobody knows apart from the two of us.

" Su Yu thought about it and nodded in agreement.

Inwardly, he was still greatly shocked.

The Book of Time...

was something his old man picked up randomly.

What was this?

He had been thinking that perhaps there was a big conspiracy behind the book in his mind.

More importantly, he had somehow absorbed the book when it wouldn't react to his old man.

That shouldn't be possible.

Unless...

all sorts of coincidences had stacked upon each other to make it happen.

For example, the book had lost its master, exhausted its strength, and was in a state of inactivity.

Additionally, Su Yu's blood and sea of willpower were also somehow compatible with the Time Sage's.

All the coincidences had allowed him to absorb the book.

In that case, could he be considered a child of destiny?

But his old man should be the actual child of destiny here, right?

In that case, was he the grandchild of destiny instead?

Su Yu said nothing and worked on his father's memories in silence.

This was something Chen Yong could do back then.

With Su Yu's current strength, that was naturally not a big issue for him as well.

In any case, sealing memories was much easier than changing memories.

*** A short while later.

While cooking, Su Long asked doubtfully, "What did I want to talk about earlier?

Why can't I recall anything?

Sigh.

I have forgotten everything after seeing you.

" Su Yu grinned and asked, "Are you getting me a stepmother?

" "Bullshit.

" "You must have borrowed someone's money and forgotten about it.

" "Is that the case?

" Su Long had a look of confusion.

He recalled wanting to tell his son something, but he had completely forgotten about what he wanted to say.

Whatever.

So be it.

As for Su Yu, he sank into contemplation.

Starfall Mountain.

Was there really a ruin there?

But many Invincibles had been there before, such as Great Xia King and Great Ming King.

None had discovered anything.

Were they too weak to discover it?

Could the female furball discover it as a Daofuse?

No, humanity might not have a Daofuse this epoch, but there had always been human Daofuses around during the previous epochs.

Perhaps...

the Book of Time was the key?

Su Yu decided to pay Starfall Mountain a visit again sometime.

If there was really a Time Sage ruin there...

it would be a jackpot for him!

Such a powerful existence should have quite a collection of treasures, right?

You never know.

She might have been someone with only strength and nothing else.

Like me, I would empty my pockets each time I worked on my weapon.

Perhaps the Time Sage had emptied her pockets forging the Book of Time as well.

Nevertheless, it was still worth trying.

I'll wait for now.

I don't want to trigger something eye-catching so soon.

Once again, Su Yu glanced at his father with complicated emotions.

Destiny was truly...

unfathomable.

Had his father been blessed by destiny?

It was hard to say.

His father had survived ten years in the Allheaven Battlefield.

His old comrades had all grown in strength and rank.

His son had rampaged across the Allheaven Battlefield.

In a way, he was a lucky person.

But the luck had somehow not manifested in his own strength.

"No, the point is, my old man is actually quite a crafty one as well.

" Su Yu resisted the urge to laugh in amusement.

Liu Wenyan was probably still clueless about the fact that Su Long already knew of his identity back then.

Thus, Liu Wenyan had agreed to accept Su Yu as a student at a cheap price of some liquor.

After all, that was an acceptable price for someone unaware of who he was.

It would be totally embarrassing for the first student of Ye Batian to be bribed by only some cheap liquor worth a few hundred dollars.

Generally, a regular cultural researcher would not be bribed to receive a student with even hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Since the Book of Time was given to me by my old man, there is probably no need to worry about it.

Su Yu had been worried that the book was something a top expert had stuffed into his mind.

Sure, there was still such a possibility, but this possibility would drop further if he could find the Time Sage ruin at Starfall Mountain.

Something must have happened fifteen years ago.

Alas, nobody seems to know.

The incident might have happened beyond the net.

After a while, Su Yu tossed the matter to the back of his mind.

He was still too weak to worry about matters above the net.
