Chapter 1875: Chapter 1873: The Seal

Various sects also emerged one after another, and then one sect produced an extraordinarily talented cultivator, who gained the Eyes of the Stars by a twist of fate. From then on, he could look a hundred years into the future and a hundred years into the past. As his cultivation advanced, he could easily see through a person’s past and present life with just one glance.

For someone like him, this was extremely advantageous.

But for others, it was truly terrifying.

In this world, neither cultivators nor ordinary people wish for their past lives, present lives, and secrets to be viewed by others.

Such a person is more terrifying than a cultivator who has fallen into madness; this naturally gifted young man was soon rejected by his master and family.

Because he saw too many things he once believed to be true, but in fact, were not. The naïve youth felt deceived. He did not care about others, but he confronted his most respected master and closest relatives one by one.

One might ask, in this world, standing atop society, which of these figures does not have some privacy, secrets, or hands stained with unspeakable lives?

So the fate of this young man was predictable; he was falsely accused and obliterated.

At this moment, Gu Junbai regretted his actions for the first time. The child was too young; such a grand opportunity should not fall upon him. Even adults like himself or Qiaoqiao could handle it.

But there was no way around it; he had already calculated this opportunity. Even if Xiao Bao avoided it today, it would still befall him in the future. This was his destiny, unavoidable as it was written.

Fortunately, this child had him by his side, and fortunately, the child was still too young, having only just begun to form, and his parents and relatives were pure and kind, not allowing any filth to taint his elegance.

So, one could say Xiao Bao was lucky.

The child could keep this ability hidden away, but he could still use it for various purposes.

There was no need for excessive worry.

Xiao Bao’s mom is Gu Qiaoqiao, and his dad is Qin Yize!

One has the entire Gu Family behind her, and the other belongs to a prestigious family with numerous connections. What was this child afraid of? He was nothing like that young man. Upon thinking this, Gu Junbai suddenly realized that, indeed, some matters are clearer to an onlooker than to a participant. As Xiao Bao’s relative, he was naturally in the situation, unable to see things clearly and thus becoming entangled.

Now that he understood, it didn’t seem like a big deal.

Yet, for the sake of caution, Gu Junbai carefully used spiritual energy to seal the brilliance in Xiao Bao’s right eye. Upon closer inspection, it looked no different from before, though a bit more vibrant. This child’s future opportunities are unpredictable, but some people are destined to bear many responsibilities from birth, unavoidable as it is.

The process of sealing was simple. Xiao Bao obediently sat on the sofa, and after Gu Junbai finished, Xiao Bao blinked and curiously asked, "Granduncle, why do I feel like I can see things more clearly now?"

Gu Junbai thought for a moment and said, "Xiao Bao, this ability helps improve your vision, so you won’t need to wear glasses for nearsightedness in the future."

The originally solemn atmosphere, however, had become inexplicably comical because of Gu Junbai’s serious tone.

Gu Junbai shook his head helplessly, while Ling Nan laughed heartily on the side, which quickly dispelled the serious mood.

However, Gu Junbai separately instructed Xiao Bao on many things, though not all; just some simple things to pay attention to for now.

At present, the child is still too young with a lot of growth potential ahead. Telling him everything now would be futile, no need for it either. The days are long, and even without him by Xiao Bao’s side, his mom, Gu Qiaoqiao, can be.

But before that, Gu Qiaoqiao should be urged to diligently study the Heaven-reaching Talisman Incantation, for in the past six months, she seems to have forgotten she belongs to the Mystic Sect.

Qiaoqiao was not naturally ambitious; with many preoccupations now dividing her attention further, and living a rather peaceful life, her family hoped such peace would last.

After all, Xiao Bao had obtained a new opportunity today and was feeling sleepy. After the two children were settled, Gu Junbai said to Ling Nan, "Tomorrow morning, call Qiaoqiao and tell her to come to the ranch to pick up the children."

Ling Nan scratched his head, chuckling, "Little Uncle, I see this opportunity doesn’t affect Xiao Bao much now that you’ve sealed it. When Xiao Bao grows up, he might be able to wisely use the Eyes of the Stars."

"That’s for the future. No need to consider it now, but I need to find something for this child."

Even though he could predict many things, there are always unexpected changes, like not anticipating such a heaven-defying thing as the opportunity. So he needed to find a treasure to stabilize the mind, though it hadn’t appeared for many years and wasn’t in the North but near the sea.

Ling Nan was delighted to hear he could go out and travel with Little Uncle; he nodded quickly, "Okay, tomorrow morning I’ll call Sister Qiaoqiao."

Meanwhile, Gu Qiaoqiao and Qin Yize only managed to sleep fitfully by three o’clock in the morning. Gu Qiaoqiao felt much calmer, though still uncertain, tossing and turning until she awoke at six.

Qin Yize soothingly reassured her, though it accomplished little. In truth, he was even more anxious than Gu Qiaoqiao. At this moment, the phone rang, and Qin Yize quickly answered it.

It was Ling Nan, informing them to drive to the grasslands to pick up the children, as it takes over two hours to drive from the Imperial Capital to the grasslands.

Gu Qiaoqiao, hearing this, swiftly packed her luggage, while Qin Yize agreed readily, then hung up and quickly readied himself. They had a simple breakfast, settled their bill, and drove straight to the ranch.

Qin Yize drove swiftly, clearly showing his deep concern for his son and daughter.

Gu Qiaoqiao wished she could sprout wings and fly directly to the ranch.

For the first time, the journey felt immensely long, like a thousand miles away.

After enduring such anxiety, they finally arrived at Qiaoze Ranch, even faster than usual by half an hour.

At this time, Little Uncle and Ling Nan appeared ready for travel, and the two children had finished breakfast. They were on the grass, playing joyfully with the White Wolf and Xiao Bai, especially Xiao Bao, seemingly having forgotten all about the events of the previous night.
