Ancestor, Watch Over Me - Chapter 46
Chapter 46: Ten Years Passed with No Forgiveness
Liu Liuhai was pondering over a question: Was a 50-year-old woman really amazing?! What was amazing about her?
Liu Tao shook his head and said, “I am unable to answer this question. You can try it out when you are free.”
After saying that, he looked at Yang Shou’an with the intention to kill.
A person who was willing to marry a 50-year-old woman was terrifying.
He should die!
He began to direct all the physical powers into his palm. As long as he attacked with his palm, he would be able to kill Yang Shou’an.
However, at this moment, Yang Shou’an suddenly jerked and his face turned pale. He looked terrified, alarmed, and lost, then he trembled again before his gaze became fervent.
The Voluntary Lackey Spell was acting up!
Liu Fan opened his eyes in the coffin and looked at Yang Shou’an.
He saw Yang Shou’an turn around and fall to his knees in front of Liu Tao as he kowtowed three times.
“Father, I was wrong. From today on, I will definitely do my best for the Liu family and be the lackey of the Liu clan. Please forgive me, Father!”
“Hmm?!”
The turn of events was so quick that Liu Tao was unable to react. He was in a daze.
He stared at Yang Shou’an while Liu Liuhai came over and blocked Liu Tao. “Let’s wait for him to finish his sentence.”
Liu Liuhai continued after seeing the pulses in Liu Tao’s palm, “Perhaps this is a hint from our ancestor! Don’t be rash!”
Liu Tao trembled and nodded his head slightly. He felt that Liu Liuhai made sense.
Yang Shou’an was very good at acting, but he suddenly laid his cards on the table earlier on and revealed all his secrets and ambitions before kowtowing and showing his loyalty to the Liu clan. That was extremely strange!
If this required an explanation, the only explanation was that the ancestor had been involved in all of this!
“Alright, in front of our ancestor, tell us, how will you make yourself useful for the Liu family? I don’t believe that you will be willing to give up on that 50-year-old woman!”
Liu Tao said to Yang Shou’an, “She is your one and only love! You said that the older the woman, the more lovely she is…”
Liu Tao spoke casually as he examined Yang Shou’an.
Yang Shou’an took a deep breath and began telling his story…
“I am 29 this year. After the new year, I will be 30!”
“I was in a hurry and was muddleheaded. Before I could even prepare myself, I’ve become a 30-year-old middle-aged man.”
“It should be an age of accomplishment! However, I am not famous!”
“I am very worried because I am 30 but I haven’t accomplished anything!”
“Without fame, skills, or money, I fell in love with a woman who was 20 years older than I am and was forced to lose my dignity and become a spy. Moreover, I have to endure being mocked by the younger female disciples. I do not know what my future will be like and I feel lost…”
Yang Shou’an began to sob.
He really cried!
He spoke of things that had hurt him.
Snow began to fall from the balcony. It fell on his tears and melted, turning ice cold.
He looked up in despair and his gaze became firm. “The martial arts realm is dangerous and brutal. One had to be selfish to survive. Today, I will be a lackey for the Liu clan and play my part. I will be the sharpest knife and kill all our enemies. Please grant me my wish, Father!”
“In the future, when I marry the head of the Living Dead Clan and gain control over them, the Living Dead Clan will be able to help the Liu family!”
Liu Tao and Liu Liuhai looked at each other and were moved.
If Yang Shou’an was able to take control of the headmaster of the Living Dead Clan, the Living Dead Clan would really become a powerful clan that the Liu family could tap on, provided that Yang Shou’an was loyal to them.
This would be a powerful weapon to help the Liu clan obtain the treasures in the mysterious spaceship!
“You make it sound good, but I still don’t believe you!” said Liu Tao as he took out three pills and placed them in front of Yang Shou’an.
He was making it clear!
Yang Shou’an clenched his teeth and swallowed all the pills.
Liu Tao smiled and helped Yang Shou’an up. He said, “Actually, all of us believe you. If not, we wouldn’t have accepted you as our foster son!”
Yang Shou’an teared up and said in appreciation, “Thank you, Father. I won’t be able to repay you, but once I get hold of the leader of the Living Dead Clan, I will hand her over to you if you’d like!”
Liu Tao widened his eyes and berated, “Don’t say that, that is corruption!”
After that, he bowed to Liu Fan’s spirit tablet and said, “Actually, the ancestor of the Living Dead Clan was both enemies and friends with our ancestor. Their relationship was complicated, and hence, we treated the Living Dead Clan kindly. Unless necessary, we would not attack them.”
“Our ancestor who is watching us from above also don’t wish to see us killing his former good friend!” Liu Tao sighed. Liu Liuhai and Yang Shou’an nodded and remembered that detail.
Liu Fan felt relieved as he witnessed this from the coffin.
Liu Tao was becoming more and more caring.
He was becoming Liu Fan’s caring descendant!
At this moment, Liu Fan recalled something from the past.
“A thousand years ago when I was training, I once dug some ice from the North and made them into an ice coffin.”
“With this ice coffin, a body can be stored without the flesh decomposing. Initially, I’d wanted to keep it for myself, but that woman snatched it away. She vowed to commit suicide after I died and the two of us would be buried together.”
“However, after I woke up, I didn’t see any ice coffin, and I did not see the dead body of the woman who promised to be buried with me…”
Liu Fan was in deep thought.
The ice coffin was missing and the descendants of the woman wanted to steal his body to open the treasures of the Living Dead Clan.
“Could these points be related…?”
Liu Fan could not understand.
At this moment, Yang Shou’an suddenly said to Liu Tao, “Father, since the Living Dead Clan wanted to steal our ancestor’s body, we should return the favor by stealing their treasures!”
“I have once heard from the headmaster of the Living Dead Clan that among their treasures might be the cultivation technique left behind by our ancestors.”
Hearing that, Liu Tao and Liu Liuhai shook and their eyes lit up.
It was a huge matter if it concerned their ancestor’s physical cultivation technique!
The Liu family was able to progress so quickly largely because of the fact that they were able to feel the physical cultivation technique on their ancestor.
“This might be true!”
Liu Liuhai said firmly, “Our clan record states that our ancestor was a dazzling figure who was idolized by the ancestor of the Living Dead Clan. However, they were unable to move our ancestor and they decided to seduce our ancestor using their own methods!”
“By this deduction, there is a huge possibility that the cultivation technique is hidden among the treasure of the Living Dead Clan!”
Liu Fan tried to recall in the coffin…
Back then, he was extremely powerful and ruled over the world as the Bulldozer. However, he was also extremely handsome, and every move he made and every smile he gave dazzled everyone.
The woman from the Living Dead Clan was dazzled by him and planned for a long time to drug him. Then, after forcefully having her way with him, she stole a few martial arts books.
One of them was the “Scythe Technique”!
“Although 1000 years had passed, I cannot forget the pain from the loss!”
“A thousand years ago, you stole that most precious item of mine. Now, my descendants will be taking your treasures from you. Haha… This is retribution!”
Liu Fan was overjoyed in the coffin.
In the ancestral temple, Liu Tao felt that Liu Liuhai made a lot of sense. Yang Shou’an’s tip-off was very important for the Liu clan!
Therefore, he turned around and instructed Liu Dongdong to inform the Elders to hold a family meeting immediately.
They had to discuss the matter since it involved their ancestor!
