Chapter 504: The Leader's Deadline Approaches
Huyan Jueluo Xiu received a message from Ding Yuning saying that there was something important to discuss.
He didn't arrive at Ding Yuning's house until the Xia family next door had fallen asleep.
Ding Yuning, Gui Long and Xia Yu were still waiting in the living room when they saw Huyan Jueluo Xiu coming.
Guilong sat on the sofa bored and ate snacks, thinking that if he had known Huyan Jueluo would come so late, he might as well practice for a while before coming.
After waiting for a long time, Huyan Jueluo Xiu finally arrived. Guilong was just about to complain about why he came so late.
They saw Huyan Jueluo Xiu frowning all the time, and when he saw them, he just nodded slightly, looking absent-minded.
Guilong turned over and sat on the back of the sofa, raised his eyebrows curiously and asked:
"What's going on? Tell us what trouble you're having and see if we can help you solve it."
Ding Yuning and Xia Yu also noticed that Huyan Jueluo Xiu was obviously in a low mood, and looked at him with concern.
Ding Yuning thought about it but couldn't figure out what kind of situation would make Huyan Juelu Xiu do this at this stage.
Then he also said: "Xiu, is there something wrong?"
Huyan Jue Luo Xiu sighed lightly, motioned for everyone to sit down first, and then explained with a slightly depressed tone:
"The leader's time has come again. He was fine yesterday, but this morning he suddenly summoned us to announce that he would be passing the throne to a new leader soon. It seems as if his energy has suddenly been drained."
Ding Yuning frowned slightly, feeling that something was wrong. Suddenly he remembered that in the plot, before Jiu Wu took office, it was introduced that the position of alliance leader had been vacant for a long time.
But the old leader here has been fine and has even been keeping an eye on him.
Ding Yuning was immersed in his own thoughts, but Xia Yu asked curiously:
"I understand that the end is near, but what does it mean that the end is near again?"
Ding Yuning was also brought back to his senses by Xia Yu's question, and looked at Huyan Jueluo Xiu, waiting for his reply.
Huyan Juelu frowned and exhaled before explaining, "In the Jiuyi Changlao family, where the leader belongs, all members have extremely high potential for supernatural powers since birth.
However, the corresponding thing is that their lifespan has always been limited, which can be regarded as a blood curse in a sense.
People from the Jiuyi Changlao family usually don't live past the age of 25, and the leader's time had been approaching for nearly a decade.
It is said that the leader's eldest son is extremely talented and was even favored by the legendary Godwalker and accepted as his apprentice.
At that time, the leader was about to die and there was no suitable successor. He thought that with the care of the Godwalker and the talent of the eldest young master, he would definitely be more outstanding in the future.
He then issued an order to pass the throne to the eldest son, but the succession would have to wait until the eldest son turned seventeen. However, the order had not yet been fully issued.
It is said that a mysterious person appeared at that time and gave the old leader medicine, which could help him break the shackles of his lifespan.
It is unknown what exactly happened, but on the second day, the leader of the alliance recovered his health and the order to pass on the throne was temporarily withdrawn.
Not only did the leader continue to stay in the position for nearly ten years, he also broke the rule of the Jiuyi Changlao family that no one could live beyond the age of 25.
I thought it would continue like this, but who would have thought it would happen so suddenly."
Ding Yuning murmured unconsciously: "A mysterious person gave me medicine?"
Huyan Jue Luo Xiu nodded, then his eyes suddenly lit up and he looked at Ding Yuning and said:
“Yes, I never thought that there would be such a magical pill that could appear and disappear mysteriously.
Plus, the leader has always been particularly caring towards you. Is it possible that the mysterious person who gave you the medicine was your master, Senior Xiaoyaozi?"
Ding Yuning felt that it was very similar, but the problem was that his master was fake. How could he have given medicine to the leader of Iron Time and Space ten years ago?
