Many years later, Wei Jiu sat on a high throne, looking at the sea and the continent from afar, and as far as the eye could see, it was his country and his people.

Wake up to the power of the world, drunk and lying on the knees of beauties.

In this vast continent, all people, or all living beings, have bowed down to him, and no one has ever dared to disobey his ideas. Under his throne are countless white bones, which are the throne of thousands of lives accumulated, and those are the souls of the dead who died under his sword back then.

No one saw that the Nine-Tailed Holy Emperor, who was high above, would also sit on the throne weakly, caressing a simple ring with his palm, but in his heart, there was only infinite despair and pain.

Death may be the best relief, but he can't die. He is the Holy Emperor of this continent, and he has ended all wars with iron and blood, and if he dies, it means that the aimless war will spread again, and he also needs to protect his people at the cost of his life.

All the loss and despair can only turn into a sigh in the end, dissipating in the long river of time.

It's just that these are many years away!

- Volume 3 Wedge • "The History of the Flood and the Holy Emperor"

In the 199th year of the flood calendar, Landing Town.

Next to a certain stream, Lan Yan's wife Xi was washing the clothes alone. Although she is the fifth wife of Mayor Lan Yan, she has been left out in the cold because she has no heirs under her knees, and she does not even have a servant to serve her. In fact, Lan Yan was just coveting her beauty at the beginning, where did she have any true feelings? Now that she is old, she will naturally fall out of favor.

Suddenly, Nozomi felt a slight fluctuation in the river and rubbed her eyes, her eyesight had long since deteriorated after all these years of hard work.

The line of sight gradually became clear, and it was a delicate teenager who caught the eye. Ragged and embarrassed, he couldn't see what he was at all.

Xi was slightly stunned, and she didn't think much about it, so she slowly waded into the water and rescued the boy. The clothes that had not been washed were no longer washed, and the boy was helped into his room and slowly helped him recuperate.

Although Xi has no cultivation, she is indeed a medical woman, so she naturally treats the wounds on the young man's body easily. After greeting the retainers of the Lan family to clean up his body and change his clothes, Xi found that this young man was extremely handsome, and his age was definitely not very old.

In this way, ten days passed, and Nozomi took care of it for ten days. During this period, Lan Yan came once, but he didn't say anything to Xi, just looked at the boy's situation and left.

On the tenth day, the boy's fingers moved, and then he slowly opened his eyes. It was probably because he was used to the darkness for a long time, and the sudden light made the boy feel uncomfortable. Hurriedly raised his palm to resist, and on the palm of the young man's hand, he was wearing a simple and dark ring.

Nozomi smiled softly and said kindly, "You're finally awake, and you're fine, right?"

"I... I'm fine..."The boy looked around and asked, "Where is this?" Who am I?"

Xi was slightly stunned, and asked with some concern, "This is my home, this is Landing Town, the oldest place in the Eastern Country... You, don't you remember who you are?"

"Blue... Ding... Zhen ???" The young man muttered the name, confused for a moment, it was obvious that the name was very unfamiliar to him, "That... Who am I?"

I saw the young man thinking hard, trying to catch the glimmer of divine light in his mind, but then there was a cry of pain, and I saw the young man holding his head and wailing.

"Alright... All right... Don't think about it!" Xi hurriedly stopped, "Since you can't think about it, don't think about it, don't worry, our doctors here are very professional and will definitely help you recover your memory!"

After Nozomi left, the boy groped for his memories again, but still, found nothing. On the contrary, there was an exercise in his mind, called Tiandan Nine Tips, and at the same time, he clearly remembered that the ring he was wearing on his left hand was called the Qiankun Ring.

After a long time, Xi took Lan Yan to the young man, as if Xi had persuaded Lan Yan, only to see Lan Yan say with some reluctance, "I heard that you have forgotten who you are?" Then let me tell you, your name is Lan Jiu, and you are my ninth child... Xi is your mother, you were kidnapped by bad people more than ten years ago, and there is no news, and these days our Lan family master has found you back... It's back, let's hurry up and be strong, we Lan family men, we don't need cowards!"

"Father, mother?" the young man looked at Xi and Lan Yan in a daze, and muttered in a low voice, "It turns out that my name is Lan Jiu!"

Because of the lack of memory, the young man's heart was not complete, and when he heard Lan Yan say such a thing, he naturally did not have the slightest doubt. From that moment on, the boy who was rescued from the river became Lan Yan's ninth child, and the outside world also said that it was the son who was lost many years ago, and no one pursued it any more.

Half a month later, the young man's body is recovering more and more, no, it is more appropriate to call him Lan Jiu now.

Although they are both Lan Yan's children, Lan Jiu's treatment is indeed obviously much worse, just like his mother Xi, the two live in the most remote courtyard, and they always eat the worst vegetable stalks, and they don't even have an obedient servant.

However, Lan Jiu didn't have the slightest grievance in his heart, just a little distressed about his mother. However, the only thing to be thankful for is that the Lan family's library is open, and although the scriptures and exercises are placed separately, those ordinary history books do not have permissions.

His body was already weak, so Lan Jiu didn't do anything else these days, he just soaked in the library pavilion, wanting to make up for the history he had forgotten.

This town, called Landing, is a very small town in the Eastern Country.

And this continent is called the Flood Wilderness. According to the book, the Flood Continent was originally a peaceful and harmonious place, but after the end of the day, all impossible things appeared one after another, and this original home turned out to be the last prison for all living beings.

The so-called day of annihilation is the day when the human powerhouse fought the Nine-Tailed Demon Emperor of the Demon Clan, and after the Nine-Tailed Demon Emperor was killed, the day of the vision, that day was also recorded by them as the year of the flood and famine. The entire space was sealed off, and since then, the continent has been completely cut off from the outside world.

Not only that, the so-called annihilation of heaven is more of a meaning of annihilation.

From that moment on, time no longer passed, no more air flowed, and even flowers and trees no longer grew. And every living being, lost its eternal life, and from that day on, they began to feel the aging and withdrawal of life.

The Flood Continent, whether it is fertility and reproduction ability or its own harsh environment, is not conducive to survival. And now, if we lose that eternal life, I am afraid that it is no longer far away from the destruction of this space, how can the strong human beings be willing to fall into such a scene?

Although, everyone ages and dies, with artificial air, there is no need to worry about respiratory failure. In addition, the openness of marriage and the policy of encouraging childbirth have also gradually improved the ability to reproduce and inherit. In addition, mankind began to have a kingdom, a legal system, and a class, and the seeds of civilization slowly germinated.

However, human society is not as stable as imagined, at least, the demon clan is still huge. After the death of the Nine-Tailed Demon Emperor, the demon clan has been taking various means of revenge, although these years have been taken by the progress of mankind, and there have been no major actions, but the ambition of aggression has never stopped.

In the same way, the human kingdom has also become stronger, and in the eastern country, the western country, and the northern country, the strongest of the original sword masters, the pope, and the god king, have either died, and may have long since disappeared. And now the three people in power, indeed real politicians, the highly centralized regime began to sweep the entire continent.

For example, in the eastern kingdom, there are eight cities, fifty-six towns, and five hundred and four villages. Each village has its own chief, and the town also has its own mayor, and the owner of a city must be a feudal official, and in the end, all power is concentrated in the hands of the king of the eastern kingdom.

Landing Town, one of the most ordinary towns in the Eastern Empire, but as the mayor of Lan Yan, his power is naturally not small.

These are all things that Lan Jiu saw in the history books, but at the same time, he also saw that there was something that was far above this kind of power, and that was absolute strength. After all, humans and demons are not at peace, and wars break out from time to time, and at this time, it is necessary for the strong to come forward.

In general, this continent is a world where the strong are respected, and Lan Yan also got the current position of the city lord because of his strength. Basically everyone admires martial arts, even if it is a newborn child, his parents want him to follow a martial arts path.

Practicing martial arts is divided into physical arts and cultivation, and practicing physical arts can only enter the military camp to make meritorious contributions. And once it is a cultivation, absorbing the aura of heaven and earth, each of them is an absolute powerhouse, and each of them has the possibility of ascending to heaven in one step.

Although Lan Jiu lost his memory and mind, he unexpectedly found that he could never forget it, and these things were exactly what he saw in the book. When he returned to the courtyard, he saw that he still asked with yearning in his eyes, "Mother, mother, I heard that tomorrow is the time for the family test, do you think I can also participate?"

"Naturally!" Xi chuckled and nodded, looking at Lan Jiu's elated figure, a trace of unbearability flashed in her heart. Although she was not a cultivator, she was at least a medicine girl, and from Lan Jiu's body, she couldn't find a trace of aura suitable for cultivation.

Even if his body veins are weak and cold, and his meridians are chaotic, he is completely like a waste of cultivation, can he really accept the outcome of tomorrow?

This night, Lan Jiu slept beautifully, and even in his dreams, he dreamed of himself slaying the sword and killing demons. The ring on his finger flashed with a strange cold glow, reflecting the word "dry" on it, and the corners of Lan Jiu's mouth oozed a trace of saliva, and he didn't know what would be waiting for him tomorrow.
