I Inherited 5,000 Years of Family Property-Chapter 1633 - 1637: I Can’t Just Do Nothing Either
"Ah, damn it, what a sin, what a sin!"
Zhang Menglong had killed people before, so many that if you lined them up, they'd circle the Earth twice. But he believed that those he killed deserved to die—either they wanted to kill him or they were wicked to the core. At least he hadn't killed an innocent person.
However, now the unlucky fellow crushed beneath him had no grudges with him, and Zhang Menglong wasn't a bloodthirsty maniac; he couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt.
"Gou Dan, check on him for me, will you?"
[Check? Director, asking that question is not just insulting my intelligence but yours too. Do you know how fast you hit just now?]
"How fast?"
[30,000 kilometers per second, almost a tenth of the speed of light. If you crashed onto Earth, it could've shattered the planet to bits. If it weren't for the strong Laws of this world with much sturdier rocks, you'd have left a meteor-sized crater instead of just smashing a few buildings.]
"I'm asking how the person is, why are you babbling nonsense?"
[Of course, he's dead. You've crushed him so bad his mom wouldn't recognize him. He's feeble, couldn't withstand such impact, his bones shattered, and his organs turned to mush, tsk tsk.]
"Isn't this the God Race world? Why are people still so fragile?" Zhang Menglong was momentarily at a loss for what to do.
He quickly took out the Sun Scripture to save him, but Gou Dan informed him that despite its resurrection powers, it comes at a cost.
With Zhang Menglong's current abilities, resurrecting a normal person is a breeze.
But in different worlds, reviving different people varies greatly in cost.
At least with his current prowess, he couldn't use the Sun Scripture to resurrect this unlucky guy; he'd need to be a Super Life Form to even try.
Also, this thing can only be used by those who possess the powers of both the Sun Scripture and the Book of the Undead. Zhang Menglong had many high-level teachers, but most wouldn't use it, and their energy didn't align with these scriptures.
"So, this guy's really beyond saving?" Zhang Menglong found himself speechless.
[The Director can take this unlucky fellow's body, preserve it with some methods, and when the Director becomes a Super Life Form, you can revive him, right?]
"That's not bad!" Zhang Menglong was ready to collect the unlucky guy's body, but soon a voice called out from outside.
"Young Master! Young Master? Are you alright?"
"Young Master? This unlucky chap is a Young Master?" Zhang Menglong hesitated again.
If this person was all alone, taking him wouldn't matter, but he has family. If he took him away, his family would surely be worried.
He couldn't just tell them he accidentally crushed him and needed to take him for a while to revive him when he was strong enough.
He was sure if he said that, he'd either be chopped to bits or taken as a lunatic.
[Director, there's only one way left.]
"What way?"
[Temporarily possess his body, use your Life Force to nourish his body. This way, you can ensure his corpse stays pristine, and he can live by his original identity, albeit you'll have to stay in his body for a while.]
"Goodness, you think I'm Ultraman or something?" Zhang Menglong joked. Ultraman accidentally crushed someone upon arriving on Earth and also used this possession method. Who would've thought he'd have to replicate such an operation?
"Whatever, I caused this mess, might as well stay here for a bit. I can learn more about this world, which will help me find the gate to the human world here."
Hearing footsteps coming closer, Zhang Menglong quickly possessed the unlucky fellow's body.
"This guy's really badly hurt!" Zhang Menglong inspected the new body, indeed as Gou Dan described, the insides turned to a mushy mess.
His physical condition was even worse than a normal adult in the Main World. Normally, a Young Master of such a family shouldn't be so weak, right?
Zhang Menglong temporarily occupied this body and quickly found information about the unlucky fellow from his memories.
As he suspected, this unlucky guy was indeed a failure, born in the Guardian family of the Yanlan Empire. Normally, Guardian family offspring have excellent training Gift and are cultivated as the next Guardian candidates.
There were hundreds of young people in this Guardian family, but only this Gu Xiao had no training Gift.
When his mother was pregnant, his father took her to the Empire King's banquet, and during that time, the King was attacked by the neighboring country. To protect the King, Gu Xiao's mother was seriously injured, even pierced by a poisoned arrow.
This poison was vicious, likely to cause mother and child both to perish, but the Guardian was skilled, channeling all the poison from his wife to Gu Xiao, saving her life.
Gu Xiao was lucky, surviving despite the situation, but his body was permanently damaged by the poison, not fit for training, with his lifespan extended only by treasures his father used.
Thus, he had no ambitions, only interested in writing and music, leading a mentally fulfilling life.
Due to this incident, the Yanlan Empire's King arranged a marriage, marrying the unborn Princess to Gu Xiao in gratitude to the Guardian family.
In a few days, Gu Xiao's wedding to the Third Princess Lan Xin would take place, but due to Zhang Menglong, it became his funeral.
"Sigh, I can't tell if you're lucky or unlucky."
Gu Xiao becoming disabled was surely unlucky, but having a Princess as a wife was lucky.
Getting crushed by Zhang Menglong was unlucky, but having him as the crusher was also lucky.
Zhang Menglong took out an elixir and swallowed it. The elixir had great effects even on perfect Life Forms, easily repairing Gu Xiao's damaged body.
Within a few breaths, his body fully recovered, except for his clothes still being a bit tattered.
Zhang Menglong sighed, "I accidentally messed you up like this, I can't just leave it at that. Since things turned out this way, let me help you stage a useless backward comeback. When you wake up, you'll find everything changed."
