Guarding the River of Time

Chapter 156: The Treasure Little Monkey Found—Isn't It? You Raised Hell at Their Hideout?


Inside the wooden box was a Spirit Fruit.

It resembled a peach, too large to hold with one hand, and she could sense an incredibly pure and immense energy contained within. Just a sniff made her feel completely refreshed.

She had seen countless Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, but this was the first time she had encountered such a high-level treasure.

She only bought some small toys for Little Nannan, and this return gift was so precious that it made her feel a bit embarrassed.

This clearly showed that following the master was indeed a great opportunity for her.

She looked at the sky, her heart slightly trembling with anticipation to meet the master....

Initially, she was forced to join the master's camp, but now.... she had gradually changed her previous thoughts.

She already had a mindset of willingly following.

Moreover, the current Great Woe Immortal Realm was indeed stronger than before, showing the master's leadership prowess.

.....

"Daddy, guess what good stuff I brought for you!"

Nannan ran up to Su Mu as soon as he returned home, speaking mysteriously.

After saying this, she drew a candied hawthorn from her sleeve and offered it to Su Mu.

Seeing the candied hawthorn, Su Mu was stunned for a moment, then rubbed her little head, saying, "You eat it, Daddy has had it before."

"No, Daddy, you try a bite first."

Little Nannan held up the candied hawthorn, pouting.

Seeing this, Su Mu squatted down and took a bite.

Tasting it left Su Mu in a daze.

The taste of this candied hawthorn was identical to what he had eaten before crossing worlds!

At this moment, Su Mu asked, "Where did you get this candied hawthorn?"

"Big Brother and Third Brother took me to a beautiful place, then a big sister took me to an old man on the street to buy it."

Little Nannan replied.

Mainly, Su Mu didn't know what the candied hawthorn tasted like in this world, but it was exactly the same as the one he ate before crossing worlds.

This made Su Mu start to wonder if the person who sold the candied hawthorn to Little Nannan was a Transmigrator from Blue Star, like him.

"Daddy ate it, now you try it."

After saying this, Little Nannan took her first bite, and after eating it, her eyes sparkled. She had tasted many Spirit Fruits, but it was the first time she experienced this sweet and sour taste.

"Is it delicious?"

"Delicious!"

Little Nannan handed the candied hawthorn to Su Mu again: "Daddy, you have another bite, let's eat it together."

Hearing this, Su Mu shook his head, smiling: "You finish it, Daddy used to eat it often, and if you want, Daddy can make it for you in the future."

"Wow!"

"Daddy is so amazing, he can even make this."

Little Nannan's eyes were full of admiration.

....

However, there's no hawthorn here, so if Su Mu wants to make it, he can only use the Spirit Fruits here to create an upgraded version of candied hawthorn.

Delicious, and can also enhance cultivation.

.....

At night, Nannan couldn't sleep, leaning on Su Mu's shoulder, looking at the dark sky.

"Daddy, why can't we see the stars here?"

Nannan pointed at the pitch-black sky, murmuring.

Su Mu also raised his head, looking at the starless sky, frowning: "I don't know about that."

"Daddy, have we always lived here?"

Nannan asked the question in her heart.

"Not really. Daddy used to live on a very beautiful blue star."

"That's our real home."

The beautiful star in Su Mu's mouth was Blue Star.

"Blue star!"

"Then Daddy, when will we go home...." Little Nannan was also puzzled, wondering why Daddy always lived here, but she didn't ask because Daddy surely had his reasons.

"Someday... Someday I'll take you back to see it."

Su Mu wasn't actually sure if that day would ever come, so he didn't dare to specify a time.

After all, he was just someone struggling on the river at the moment.

If he managed to refine this river and cultivated to a certain level, maybe he'd have the chance to visit Blue Star, but that was something for the future.

...

"You said a big sister took you to buy candied hawthorn?"

"What was her name?"

Su Mu recalled the taste of that candied hawthorn from the day and wondered if it was a Transmigrator he knew, considering he had a stack of Transmigrators' loans for the river crossing fee here. He'd have to collect debts once he got off this river.

"Her name was.... Ran Qingqing." Little Nannan replied.

Ran Qingqing?

Su Mu searched his memory, but there was no recollection of that name, it seemed he was overthinking.

Speaking of Transmigrators, he wondered how those Transmigrator protagonists were doing now.

But then again, since they all had a Transmigration script, they wouldn't be doing poorly.

.....

"Someday... not too far away."

After saying this, he found little Nannan asleep leaning on him, so he gently carried her to a willow bed.

Throughout the night, Su Mu didn't waste any time and meditated the entire night.

....

Early the next morning, Su Mu stood before the willow tree, arms folded, and found that the eyes of the suspended Little Monkey had become clearer, seemingly less stubborn.

"What's up? Had a change of heart?"

"If you have, you should be repaying your debt, weren't you quite the thief?"

"Go somewhere else and bring me something as valuable as the Bodhi Fruit."

After a period of torture and the Wild Boar's earnest persuasion, Little Monkey finally came to its senses.

Continuing to be stubborn might really mean being strung up by this formidable man for life, till death.

Little Monkey nodded.

With a wave of his hand, Su Mu released Little Monkey, then the suspended Wild Boar also nodded vigorously.

Indicating that it could help find treasures too!

Su Mu released the Wild Boar as well.

To prevent them from escaping, Su Mu waved a hand, placing a restriction on them, ensuring he could track them anywhere in the world.

"Go, don't even think about running away."

"Because I have a hundred ways to bring you back."

"Show me your value."

Su Mu instructed the Wild Boar and Little Monkey.

With that,

The Wild Boar and Little Monkey went downstream along the river, quickly disappearing from sight.

After all, it was no solution to keep them strung up like that; it was better to have them fetch treasures for him.

...

A few days later, Su Mu noticed the Wild Boar and Little Monkey had returned.

The Wild Boar was limping on one leg, and Little Monkey appeared to be badly injured too.

"Did you find any treasures?"

Su Mu asked the Wild Boar and Little Monkey.

With that, Little Monkey slowly retrieved something from behind.

"What is this?"

Su Mu asked, puzzled.

...
