Dark clouds covered the sky and torrential rain poured down.
Rumble!
Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, shaking heaven and earth.
Central Continent, Maple Leaf City, in the city lord's manor. Maple Leaf City Lord stood in a corridor outside a house, pacing around.
He had a square face and was not imposing but angry. Right now, his brows were tightly furrowed, his mood was like the sky, restless and extremely worried.
Suddenly, he stopped and walked to the door, listening attentively.
Other than the sound of the storm and thunder, he could hear his wife's miserable groans and the shouts of several midwives: "Wife, use more strength, use more strength!"
Maple Leaf City Lord was already over fifty years old and deeply loved his wife. He was a rank five Gu Master with the strongest battle strength in the surrounding thousands of li, he had a high status and was a charismatic leader, he was loved by many. But the only flaw was that he did not have a child.
Nine months ago, he was overjoyed because his wife was finally pregnant with his flesh and blood.
He could be said to have gotten a child at an old age, the biggest regret in his life was made up for.
But even though he invited three famous midwives, two with rank three cultivation level and one with rank four cultivation level, he still encountered unexpected difficulties on the day of his wife's delivery.
"How can this be?!" Maple Leaf City Lord wanted to vent his anger but had no way to vent it.
He clenched his fists, the battle strength he was so proud of was useless now.
Even though he had many healing Gu worms, he was not good at helping women give birth.
"Sigh!" He could only restrain his emotions and lower his head, pacing around the corridor in front of the door.
"Wah! Wah wah … "Suddenly, he heard a baby crying.
Next, he heard the midwife laughing inside: "She gave birth, she gave birth, it's a boy! Wife, you succeeded!! "
"I, I have a child! My … son! "Maple Leaf City Lord was stunned before becoming overjoyed, he could not wait to open the door and rush in to take a look.
But at this time, a strange fragrance came from inside the house.
This fragrance refreshed the mind and was not greasy at all. Next, the fragrance thickened and condensed into colorful flowing lights that floated in the air like streams of water, enveloping the whole house and even the surrounding hundreds of steps.
"What is this?!" Maple Leaf City Lord stopped in his tracks, extremely shocked.
What shocked him even more was that the colorful lights in the air were increasing in number, and the fragrance was getting stronger and stronger.
The thunderstorm in the sky suddenly stopped, and the dark clouds slowly dispersed. Sunlight pierced through the gaps between the dark clouds and shone down like a pillar. There was a magnificent pillar of light that shone precisely on the delivery room of the City Lord's wife.
After that, the flowing lights and vibrant colors condensed together to actually form a crimson colored lotus the size of a house. It floated in midair, vivid and lifelike, and didn't disperse for a long time.
"A natural anomaly!" The Master of Maple Leaf City was shocked. His wife and the three midwives were also stunned on the spot.
At the same time, in the sky above the nine heavens, three rank eight Gu Immortals stood on the clouds, observing Maple Leaf City's City Lord Manor. They saw the unusual phenomenon of the birth of the baby.
"It has finally appeared." Duke Mei, who was standing at the center, heaved a long sigh. He looked old and kind. His eyebrows were especially strange, like two delicate dark brown roots, extending from his eyebrows all the way to his chest.
"This child is extraordinary after all, favored by the fate of the human dao. His innate fate is already so rich, actually condensing into a red lotus canopy, visible to the naked eye! This is definitely an Immortal Venerable seed! Our Celestial Court did not expend three wisdom path Gu Immortals to deduce him in vain. "Gu Immortal Duke Tong, who was standing on the left, sighed with emotion.
He was a middle-aged man with an extremely strong physique. His face and skin were like brass, emitting a cold metallic luster. He stood on the clouds like a towering mountain, like a vajra pagoda, giving off a peerless aura of not moving even when the world was shaking, of being indifferent to wind, rain, thunder, and lightning.
Duke Mei nodded: "Past Immortal Venerables and Demon Venerables have a common characteristic, that is, they possess the luck of the human dao. It is just that some do not show it initially, they hide their luck and hide it. Only after a certain period of time would it suddenly erupt. This child had such a phenomenon at birth, no wonder heaven and earth could not tolerate it and sent down calamities and tribulations to destroy him. This is rare even in the records of past venerables. If this child is nurtured properly, he will definitely become the most outstanding existence among the venerables! "
Saying so, Duke Mei's body suddenly shook, he opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Duke Mei." Duke Tong frowned: "You and I have suffered heavy injuries in resisting the calamities and tribulations."
"Lord Duke Mei!" The Gu Immortal on the right also revealed a concerned expression. He had the appearance of a human youth with purple hair and a dragon-shaped aura constantly revolving around his body.
Duke Mei looked at the young Gu Immortal: "Duke Long, fate Gu has already revealed that you have an extremely deep fate with this child. When this child becomes a venerable in the future, you will be his Dao Guardian! Go, take him as your disciple, guide him, and nurture him. You will help him, and he will help you. The two of you are destined to shine brightly in the history of humanity, you will never be forgotten! "
"Yes, I will go now." The young Gu Immortal, Duke Long, nodded.
"Go." Duke Tong's brows were still tightly furrowed: "After returning to Celestial Court, Duke Mei and I will enter the longest hibernation to recuperate. The era of the Celestial Court's three dukes will never return. Duke Long, you will lead the Celestial Court and lead the Celestial Court to continue bringing glory to this great world. "
"Yes!" Duke Long restrained the surging emotions in his heart as he stepped on a cloud and slowly descended.
His sleeves fluttered and with a wave of his hand, qi currents surged, vast and boundless. Dragon roars resounded incessantly, attracting the attention of heaven and earth and shocking everyone.
Under this boundless aura, he slowly descended and landed in Maple Leaf City Lord's manor.
Including Maple Leaf City Lord, all the guards were already kneeling on the ground, many of them shivering.
Maple Leaf City Lord was a knowledgeable person after all, he knew about the existence of Gu Immortals and also knew that his strength could not resist even a finger of a Gu Immortal. He forcefully calmed himself down and greeted: "I am Hong Zhu, greetings to lord immortal. I wonder why lord immortal has descended to the mortal world? "
Duke Long smiled: "Hong Zhu, your son is the child of luck, a peerless genius that appears once in a million years. His aptitude is superb and rarely seen in the world. As long as he is nurtured properly, he will definitely become a great person in the future. But if he lacks guidance, there is the danger of slaughtering living beings and creating chaos in the universe. So I am very happy to see this talent, and for the sake of the common people of humanity, I have specially come to take this child as my disciple. In the future, I will nurture and guide him carefully, making him the leader of the righteous path and a Gu Immortal who seeks for the welfare of the whole of humanity. "
"Ah …" Hearing this, Maple Leaf City Lord Hong Zhu was pleasantly surprised.
He was shocked by Duke Long's words, but he had seen the phenomenon of heaven and earth with his own eyes, so he was somewhat mentally prepared.
He was naturally happy that his son had a Gu Immortal master, his future achievements would be limitless and he would absolutely surpass his father.
Although he was the lord of a city and had a high status and authority, compared to a Gu Immortal, it was like a drop in the ocean, not worth mentioning.
But other than joy, Hong Zhu was also a little disappointed. He had a son at an old age, but before he could even see his son, he was going to be taken in as a disciple by a lord immortal. The chances of them meeting each other in the future would be extremely limited.
Duke Long took a look at Hong Zhu and immediately knew what he was thinking, he consoled: "Don't worry, I am only here today to explain this matter and not to take your son away. When he is ten years old, it will be the right time for me to bring him up the mountain and teach him some skills. "
Hong Zhu heard this and was extremely excited, he quickly thanked him.
At this time, the door opened, the city lord's wife had already packed up and was carrying the newborn baby. She walked out of the room with the three midwives and quickly knelt on the ground, paying respects to Duke Long.
Duke Long's gaze was immediately attracted by the baby, he laughed heartily and took a step forward, arriving in front of the city lord's wife at the next moment.
He carefully carried the baby and observed it.
This baby did not have the ugly appearance of a newborn baby. He had a head of black hair, red lips, and white teeth, and looked very cute. His eyes were as bright as stars, shining brightly. His skin was fair and tender, and his chubby face was extremely lovable.
At this time, the red lotus that was hovering in mid-air slowly descended and kept shrinking. Under Duke Long's gaze, it finally landed on the baby's forehead and condensed into a nine-petaled red lotus birthmark.
A trace of shock flashed in Duke Long's eyes, he thought to himself: 'This fate condenses into a birthmark, engraved between the brows, this is a phenomenon that none of the previous Venerable Ones have. This disciple of mine will probably be very special when he becomes a Venerable One in the future! '
At this thought, the child that was light as a feather in Duke Long's arms felt as heavy as a mountain. A strong sense of mission and responsibility filled Duke Long's heart.
"There's no need to kneel, get up." After looking at it for a while, Duke Long solemnly returned the baby to the city lord's wife.
He opened his mouth and exhaled, three streams of aura flashed. One of them landed on the baby, while the other two entered the city lord's wife's body.
The baby immediately fell into a deep sleep with a smile on his face.
Meanwhile, the city lord's wife felt a boundless power filling their limbs and bones.
The city lord's wife exclaimed, the weakness from just giving birth had already disappeared, she was brimming with energy and had returned to her youthful state.
Meanwhile, City Lord Hong Zhu was shocked to find that all his old injuries had healed, the primeval essence in his aperture had actually surpassed common sense and had a trace of green luster. His strength that could not increase anymore seemed to have risen by a huge chunk!
Hong Zhu was not in a hurry to sense the changes in his body, he immediately thanked Duke Long together with his wife.
Duke Long waved his hand: "There's no need to thank me, because I still need your help. One's parents and one's master could not replace one another. I like the fact that you two love each other, and more importantly, care deeply for your son, let him feel the love and warmth of the world, this will be of great help to his growth. Ten years later, I will come again. "
Saying so, Duke Long slowly floated up into the sky. Along the way, air currents surged and dragon roars resounded in a rhythmic manner, like a formless dragon tide surging.
The mortals in the city looked up at the sky, watching as Duke Long flew away until his figure was concealed by the clouds.
After a moment of silence, there was a loud explosion and the entire city went into an uproar.
