Chapter 3: Endless Place, Nan Family

The Endless place, a magnificent spectacle nestled amidst the icy and snowy Mangbie.

Although it was a newly established continental power a few hundred years ago, its foundation was not as deep as the other five ancient clans, but it was still incomparable to other forces.

In the boundless white world, the “Endless place” where the Nan family resided was located among the mountains, vibrant with life and colorful. Soul beasts soared in the air, creating an idyllic scene of a watery land.

Money, it was all burned by money.

According to her memories, it seemed that her mother didn’t like the icy and snowy lands, and to ensure that the Nan family disciples could cultivate in a comfortable environment, the Nan family used soul stones to maintain the peach blossoms and willows of the Endless place every year, encompassing the beauty of all four seasons.

Whether the latter was an excuse or not was unknown.

As Nan Xian flew on Xueluan in the sky above the Endless place, a group of Nan family elders and disciples surrounded Xueluan with an imposing aura. When they saw the person on Xueluan, they were first shocked and then proud.

“Welcome back, Lady’s!”

The sound made her head buzz.

A group of people stared at her with burning eyes, escorting Nan Xian into the inner gate of the Endless place.

As soon as Nan Xian got off Xueluan, she heard a loud shout, “My child!”

Looking up, she saw a woman with purple clothes and a heroic expression walking towards her.

Whoa! Her original mother?

Nan Xian looked at her own “white moonlight” attire and demeanor, then at the heroic and valiant woman in front of her. Was she her biological mother?

She is your biological mother.

‘System, don’t read my mind.’

Please maintain your persona!! Fully immerse yourself in the role of Nan Xian in the Soul Martial World.

Nan Xian calmed her emotions and walked forward. “Mother.”

“My child, you must have suffered. Let your mother have a look. Are you injured? Where is your father? Why did you come back alone?”

Nan Xian’s expression didn’t waver. In her original world, she was dug out of a mutated womb by the director of the research institute. The relationship of father and mother felt a bit unfamiliar to her.

Thinking of the original owner’s appearance in her memories, Nan Xian replied softly, “Mother, don’t worry. I’m fine with Xueluan.”

Wu Qinglan looked at her daughter with relief. She looked like a fairy. No wonder she was her child. It’s just that she wasn’t around when she was young, so her personality was a bit aloof.

“After the ancestor’s death, you insisted on not having a protector. This time, you have to find one no matter what.”

“Okay.”

“You have to, you have to… wait, what did you say? Have to?”

“Okay, okay, time is of the essence. I’ll go pick one for you now.”

Wu Qinglan, afraid that Nan Xian would change her mind, pulled her daughter and immediately summoned all the Nan family members who were Soul King Realm and above.

Thousands of inner and outer elders at the Soul King Realm and Soul Master Realm gathered in the square, their eyes burning with passion as they looked at Nan Xian, the only ninth-grade golden-level martial soul in the Sky Realm, the future Soul Saint, even Soul Emperor.

Protectors only needed to protect Nan Xian, they didn’t need to manage any family affairs, and they could also receive top-level family resources for cultivation. They could also build relationships with future strong individuals. It was the best job.

Nan Xian scanned the crowd of strong individuals below and asked the system:

‘System, give me some suggestions. Who should I choose?’

Outer Elder Number Sixteen: Nanfeng. Sixth-Grade Blue-Level Martial Soul Flame Jiao, can mutate into Eighth-Grade White-Level Martial Soul Yanlong Flame Dragon.

Eighth-grade! As long as there were enough resources, he would be another Soul Saint.

Nan Xian looked towards the back of the crowd, where an elder with the number sixteen on his robe was yawning secretly.

“Outer Elder Number Sixteen.”

Everyone looked back.

Seeing the old man’s flustered state, he nervously shuffled forward, his feet stumbling over each other.

“Outer Elder Nanfeng, greets Lady’s!”

Wu Qinglan, beside him, frowned. “Xiao Xian, Nanfeng only has a sixth-grade blue-level martial soul. He’s already reached the peak of his potential at the Soul King Realm. Maybe you should choose again?”

“It’s him.”

Wu Qinglan had no choice. At least it was better than nothing. So she asked,

“Nanfeng, are you willing to be Lady’s’s protector?”

Nanfeng knelt down and performed a grand bow. “By the heavens, I, Nanfeng, am willing to be Lady’s’s protector, and I will never betray her!”

He was originally just there to make up the numbers. With a sixth-grade blue-level martial soul, no matter how many resources he had, he could only reach the Soul King Realm at best. He was an outer elder, and he thought his life was over, but unexpectedly, things took a turn for the better. It was like…

A light boat had sailed past ten thousand mountains.

Nanfeng was a bit giddy.

Everyone looked at Nanfeng with envy.

After choosing a protector, the subsequent matters were handled by the servants. Wu Qinglan, relieved, smiled and turned to walk towards the grand hall in front of them.

The hall was solemn and majestic, exuding an air of authority.

As soon as they entered the hall, two little sprouts ran towards the door.

“Sister is here, Li’er wants to play with Sister.”

“Me too, me too.”

Nan Xian carefully observed her twin brother and sister, two five-year-old little dumplings.

The system’s voice rang incessantly in her mind:

Detecting protagonist of destiny Nan Fan unawakened.

Detecting protagonist of destiny Nan Li unawakened.

So, her brother and sister were the protagonists, and she was the big villain?

As everyone knows, the families of protagonists are a high-risk profession. Family annihilation probability: 80%, relative death rate: 99%.

Ding, rewarding host with a special item: Eyes of Destiny Detection.

Nan Xian suddenly felt a flash of golden light in front of her eyes, and two rows of golden numbers almost blinded her.

Above her brother Nan Fan’s head, Destiny Points: unawakened

Above her sister Nan Li’s head, Destiny Points: unawakened

Ten thousand! Thirty thousand!

They had such high destiny points even before awakening. This wasn’t a protagonist, this was her lifeline.

Hee hee hee

The two little sprouts shivered under Nan Xian’s gaze and hid behind Wu Qinglan.

“Didn’t you want to play with Sister? Why are you hiding?” Wu Qinglan said disdainfully.

“Sister is scary, we’re afraid.”

“Pathetic.” Wu Qinglan kicked Nan Fan.

Intimidated the protagonist of destiny, villain points +200.

This works too!?

Wu Qinglan pushed the two little sprouts in front of her. “It’s rare for you to be able to interact with people. I’m going to have the children in the clan awaken their martial souls tomorrow, you come along too.”

“Okay.”

That night, Nan Xian supervised the two as they practiced standing on their toes, occasionally using a bamboo stick to whip them.

Intimidated the protagonist of destiny, villain points +100.

Intimidated the protagonist of destiny, villain points +200.

By the end of the night, not only had she paid off her villain points debt, but she had also gained an additional thousand villain points.

“Extend my lifespan, system, quickly extend my lifespan.”

Ding, deducting one thousand villain points, rewarding lifespan of ten days.

“You’re a scammer.”

No scammer, no businessman. Also, lifespan requirements change with external factors. Please understand.
