Chapter 486 Tianyu Ancestor
"Young man, I know you." The old temple keeper drank a glass of wine, then looked at Li Qian and spoke in a slow voice.
"Do you know me?" Li Qian showed a surprised expression on his face after hearing the words of the old temple keeper.
He really didn't expect that the old man, who had been living in seclusion in this temple for a long time, could actually recognize him.
"I am just guarding the temple. I am not completely isolated from the world."
"The Internet signal on this island in the middle of the lake is not bad. I can go online and naturally watch this year's Freshman Challenge."
"Oh, that's how it is!" Li Qian smiled awkwardly after listening to the explanation of the old temple keeper.
He was taking it for granted.
"Your name is Li Qian, and you are from Jiangnan Province. You are the most talented freshman in the Beast Training College of Shazhou University, bar none." The old temple keeper continued, "In fact, the reason why we agreed to the contract between you and the direct bloodline of Ancestor Tianyu is because of this."
He glanced at Li Qian, and then said meaningfully: "If we don't agree, even if you have already signed a contract with her, there is a way to cancel it."
After hearing this, Li Qian's heart trembled slightly.
He really didn't expect that there was a way to terminate the contract that had already been concluded.
It seems that these ancient supernatural races do have some special taboos.
He also heard a hint of threat from the old man guarding the temple.
However, his threat was completely unnecessary. With his mother Han Yuying around, let alone bullying, even if Li Qian caused Wu You to suffer a little injustice, he would probably suffer "crazy revenge."
"Ancestor Tianyu?" After a trembling heart, Li Qian immediately grasped the key information in the words of the old temple keeper, and he asked.
"Yes, it's Patriarch Tianyu!"
The old temple keeper said with reverence in his eyes: "He is the pioneer of our Tianyu City, and he is also the contractor of the previous president of Xuecheng Beast Taming University."
"In fact, at this moment, he is very close to us."
The words of the old temple keeper made the look of surprise on Li Qian's face even more intense.
He was very curious...why was Tianyu, the ancestor of the Wing Clan, staying here?
Logically speaking, a strong man like him should stay in the dimensional plane and guard certain important cities.
Of course, he was more curious about why the old temple keeper told him this information.
Seeing the puzzled expression on Li Qian's face, the old temple keeper laughed and said, "See this ancestral temple? Under the ancestral temple, deep in Qin Lake, there is actually a dimensional crack."
"This dimensional crack is very special. It does not lead to the shallow dimensional plane, but to the fourth dimensional plane. It is full of dangers."
Hearing this, a hint of realization appeared in Li Qian's eyes.
The old temple keeper did not play dumb. He continued, "Just as you guessed, Ancestor Tianyu, including some strong men from our Wing Clan, are guarding this dimensional crack."
"Senior, why are you telling me these things?" Li Qian didn't believe that the old temple guardian would be talking nonsense, so he asked directly.
The old temple keeper stroked his gray beard and took another sip of wine. "Young man, you are very smart. In that case, I will not play dumb with you anymore."
"This time, the reason why we agreed to You Xingkai and his wife's request and allowed you to come in and browse the evolution stone carvings that are extremely precious to our Winged Clan..."
After a pause, he continued, "...It's not just because she is the direct descendant of Ancestor Tianyu and has amazing talent, but also because... our Wing Clan needs a strong protective force!"
"Wu You is a junior that I am very optimistic about. She has unlimited potential."
Li Qian just stared at the old man guarding the temple without interrupting him, still pretending to listen attentively.
Seeing Li Qian's reaction, the old temple keeper couldn't help but smile bitterly. "To be honest, I am ashamed. It is because we, the unfilial descendants, have not been able to cultivate any capable masters, which has caused the elders of the clan to have to guard the dangerous places all year round." "Of course, according to our ancestors, this is also a kind of practice."
"But you should know that the overlap between the real world and the dimensional plane is irreversible!"
"No one can stop the great trend of the future." The old temple keeper sighed, "If we really encounter a life-and-death crisis, the old president of Snow City Beast Taming University will definitely summon Tianyu Patriarch back. At that time, the entire Tianyu City will have to give up!"
"We don't want to abandon our homeland, so our Winged Clan is in urgent need of a second guardian."
After hearing this, Li Qian showed a look of surprise and doubt in his eyes, "Then don't worry, I will also summon Wu You to leave when the time comes."
The old temple keeper shook his head and said, "We believe in Wu You's character, and we believe even more in the person she chose to bind her."
"And if it is impossible, we will not let the Winged Clan's warriors sacrifice in vain."
When Li Qian heard this, a look of realization appeared on his face.
Now, he finally understood.
In fact, the old temple keeper in front of him, or the entire Wing Clan, is investing in him.
Li Qian understood the deep meaning of it. He felt that if he had the ability in the future, he would definitely help protect Tianyu City.
If things are impossible, you can also take the Winged People away and find a new habitat.
Next, the old man guarding the temple started chattering on and on and said a lot of things.
The meal lasted about half an hour. Li Qian drank the last sip of wine in the cup, clasped his fists, and said goodbye: "Old senior, I have not learned much of the Wing Clan's language. I can only barely understand this mural. I am a little slow in reading, so I have to hurry up and learn it. Please forgive me.
After saying that, he stood up without hesitation, left the ear room, went straight back to the back hall, and started browsing again.
The old temple keeper looked at Li Qian's departing back, a gleam of light flashing in his eyes.
"Will you be the savior of our Wing Clan?" Looking at Li Qian's departing back, the old temple keeper muttered to himself, and then focused his gaze in a certain direction.
"Ancestor Tianyu, I hope your judgment is correct..."
At the same time, outside the ancestral temple, Wu You's family of five were waiting anxiously.
Seeing the anxious expressions on her parents' faces, Wu You herself was not in a hurry. She comforted them, "Don't worry, you have to trust my judgment and trust Li Qian. He will definitely gain something in the ancestral temple."
"Well, I hope so."
"If it really doesn't work, we can only ask our great-grandmother for help."
Wu You shook his head. "No need. Li Qian can definitely help me complete my evolution."
"If by any chance I fail to complete my evolution, that would be my fate. Grandma, you can help me temporarily, but you can't help me forever."
Wu You was very open-minded and said it indifferently.
Next to him, Wu You's sister, Wu Tingting, heard the words and immediately interrupted, "Pfft, ptff, ptff, don't talk nonsense. Our little Youyou is blessed by heaven and will definitely complete the evolution successfully."
There was really no other way, they could only place their hopes on Li Qian.
According to Wu You’s current age, if she fails to complete the evolution in a year at most, her life will be in real danger.
Of course, if you can break through to the overlord level, you can continue to extend your life for a few more years.
However, due to the limitations of genetic defects, even if he breaks through to the overlord level, it is only a temporary solution and cannot extend the time.
