Ultimate Series, Past Lives Revealed

164: Was Lanling Wang a ”charlatan” in his previous life?[Gulayir Prince of Lanling was actually a Daoist priest in his past life, commonly known as a ”charlatan”]

Upon hearing this news, the people from the Twelve Time Spaces exchanged subtle glances, their expressions filled with surprise.

They never would have imagined that the cold-blooded, ruthless chief assassin of the Yehenara Family from the Iron Time Dimension, who killed without batting an eye, was actually a ”swindling and deceiving” charlatan in his past life!

Unfortunately, the Prince of Lanling was severely injured and unable to watch the content displayed on the heavenly screen!

If he could see this scene and learn that his past self was a charlatan, he would probably feel extremely embarrassed and find it hard to believe.

However, the heavenly screen did not pause due to the complex thoughts of the crowd; it continued playing on its own.

Seeing this, the crowd simply treated it like a TV drama, watching while eating, which they found quite interesting.

Prince of Lanling...

[At the foot of a remote mountain stood a dilapidated Daoist temple.

This temple had weathered many storms, its walls were mottled, and its roof looked precarious, as if it might collapse at any moment.

Surprisingly, despite the temple’s severe disrepair, people still visited it every day.

The owner of the temple was an elderly man named Daoist Master Li.

Though advanced in years, he was spirited and sharp-eyed, and his Daoist robe gave him an air of immortal grace.

Everyone respectfully addressed him as ”Daoist Master Li.”

One night, Daoist Master Li stood in front of the temple as usual, gazing up at the sky.

Suddenly, he noticed something unusual in the celestial phenomena. He made a quick calculation with his fingers, a faint smile appearing at the corner of his mouth, and softly said, ”My little Disciple is about to arrive!” With that, he turned and went back inside to rest.

The next night, Daoist Master Li should have rested on schedule, but tonight was different—he did not go to sleep early as usual. He sat quietly inside, waiting for something.

Time passed minute by minute, and after who knows how long, hurried footsteps suddenly sounded outside the door.

The footsteps reached the doorway, seemed to hesitate for a moment, and then hurriedly retreated.

Hearing these footsteps, Daoist Master Li did not get up to investigate. Instead, he remained seated, unhurriedly taking a sip of tea.

After a while, he slowly stood up, walked to the door, and opened it.

On the ground lay a baby wrapped tightly in cloth, revealing only a delicate, pink face with tightly closed eyes, sleeping peacefully.

Seeing this, Daoist Master Li’s face broke into a faint, contented smile. He seemed unsurprised by the baby’s appearance.

He crouched down, carefully picked up the baby, and softly said, ”From now on, you will be my eldest Disciple. I never thought I’d take on a Disciple like this in my old age! In that case, from now on, you shall be called Li Jianyi.”]

[Xia Mei from the Iron Time Dimension: This is the Prince of Lanling’s past life? How pitiful, abandoned by his family right after birth!]

[Cao Cao from the Silver Time Dimension: This Daoist Master Li has quite remarkable abilities!]

[Wang Dadong of the Gold Time Dimension: I think so too! Just by looking at the sky and making a quick calculation, he knew he would have a Disciple!]

[Gou Zhui from the Copper Time Dimension: Why is the temple still so run-down even with so many visitors? Is it charity work?]

[Wood Time-Space: Could there be some kind of restriction?]

[Duan Chang Ren: Possibly!]

[Wang Yase: All this mystical talk, but it does seem quite remarkable!]

[Iron Time Space Jiu Wu: In that case, as the Daoist master’s Disciple, the Prince of Lanling must have these abilities too!]

[Iron Time-Space A Kou: But he doesn’t have memories of his past life!]

[Silver Time-Space Zhang Fei: Maybe the reward includes those memories!]
