The stars twinkle, emitting a faint light, longing to illuminate every corner of the world.
"Dad?" Chu Zhan weakly called out from his bed, with a hint of unease in his voice.
He was afraid that Chu Tiange had been killed by Chu Zifeng and others. Many people in the family wished for the father and son to die, and their deaths might not attract anyone's attention. When he was crippled that day, all the glory had vanished. Since then, the joys and sorrows of the world had come one after another.
In Chu Zhan's view, all of this was the consequence of his youthful arrogance, and he shouldn't let his child bear it, after all, the child was innocent.
At this moment, Chu Zhan was in great pain and fear, with a hint of madness.
"Squeak." As Chu Zhan reproached himself, the sound of the door being opened came from the room.
A slender figure, dressed plainly, with bright eyes, walked in through the door. Who else could it be but Chu Tiange?
"Dad, you're still alive!" Chu Zhan trembled with excitement and tried to get out of bed to see his child, but he was too weak and fell to the ground.
Chu Tiange looked on, feeling deeply moved. Having crossed into this world, he thought he had no relatives, but at this moment, a long-lost warmth rose in his heart. His father, who was willing to risk his life for him, was so excited to see him.
Although he was not his biological son, this body was. As the ancient saying goes, "One's body is received from one's parents." Moreover, if it weren't for this body, he might have died long ago, so he was his father.
"Father, you are so weak, I will take good care of you. As for those people today, they have already left," Chu Tiange hurried over to help Chu Zhan up.
"Son, you have suffered. It's all because your father is useless and couldn't protect you," Chu Zhan said with tears of bitterness in his eyes, but he couldn't say it out loud.
"Father, don't say that. Without you, how could I exist? The kindness of raising me is greater than the heavens. How could I blame my father?"
"Son, you have suffered for me."
"I will work hard to cultivate and avenge you," Chu Tiange now understood that this was a mythical world, and with the immortal system he possessed, he would surely trample this world underfoot, let alone a small Chu family.
"Son, weren't you unable to cultivate?" Chu Zhan asked in confusion, because when Chu Tiange was born, Chu Zhan knew that he had no spiritual roots for cultivation.
"Father, I have found a master. He said that I will become a great figure in the future," Chu Tiange only knew that he had the immortal system, so he didn't care about spiritual roots.
"Really? Where is the old man? Why didn't you invite him to our house?" Chu Zhan was half-believing and half-doubting.
"The master only gave me a contact information. He said he had something to do recently. Father, it's getting late, you should rest early. I won't disturb you," Chu Tiange quickly walked out of the room, afraid of saying too much.
He hurried to his room and locked the door.
"Master, can you come out?" Chu Tiange asked cautiously.
For Chu Tiange, everything that happened today felt like a dream, and at this moment, he found it hard to believe.
"Boy, what do you need me for?" The projection of the immortal system appeared, still with an immortal and dignified appearance, but now smiling because Chu Tiange called him "master."
"Master, I have signed a contract with you, but I don't know where I am, and I don't know anything about you. I'm afraid I might be the wrong person and ruin your great cause," Chu Tiange asked earnestly, wanting to know where he was and seeking information about the immortal system.
"First, the first question, where you are, you have to ask yourself," the immortal system looked at Chu Tiange and said mysteriously.
"Ask myself?"
"Yes, yourself," the immortal system said, then smiled mysteriously.
