Chapter 379 An unexpected surprise
When Zhou Xian casually said that he was already a level nine expert, Hogg's eyes widened, his face full of shock, and his voice unconsciously rose eight degrees: "What! Level nine? Aatrox, you are actually a level nine expert?"
His hands trembled slightly, his eyes full of disbelief. You know, on this continent, a ninth-level expert is a Saint-level expert, standing at the top of the pyramid, and a stomp of the foot can make a force tremble. And the boy in front of him who used to live by his side has now quietly reached such a height.
Zhou Xian looked at Hogg's astonished expression, nodded slowly, his eyes calm and confident. At this moment, he felt at ease, no longer needing to hide his shortcomings and forbearance as before.
Today, he has unparalleled strength and is considered to be one of the top combat forces in this vast continent.
Those powerful beings that were once out of reach were no longer out of reach for him. Apart from the few gods who transcended the mortal world and the holy realms that comprehended the laws, Zhou Xian was truly fearless.
Thinking of this, Zhou Xian's gaze became more determined, as if he saw a more distant future through the adoptive father in front of him, a journey full of challenges and opportunities.
He clenched his fists slightly, and the magic power in his body quietly circulated. An indescribable aura emanated from him, and even the little fox beside him couldn't help but look up and look at him with admiration.
"Godfather, it's time for the world to remember the glory of the Baruch family."
Zhou Xian's eyes were as sharp as torches, his voice was low but every word was powerful, and his eyes were burning with fighting spirit, as if a ball of fire was burning in his chest.
Hogg's body trembled slightly, and he stared at the determined young man in front of him, as if he got to know him all over again.
"The glory of the Baruch family..." Hogg muttered to himself, his eyes becoming blurred, and those memories that had been sealed away for a long time emerged before his eyes like a surging tide. Once upon a time, the Baruch family was also famous on this continent. There were many powerful people in the family, and they were honored and respected by the world.
But now, the family has long since fallen and its glory is gone. Restoring the glory of the Baruch family has always been Hogg's lifelong dream.
However, due to his low strength, he had been struggling on the road of cultivation for many years. He was simply unable to shoulder this heavy responsibility and could only watch the glory of his family fade away bit by bit.
Thinking of this, Hogg couldn't help but reveal a bitter smile on his face, his eyes slightly red. But soon, his eyes refocused on Zhou Xian.
Looking at Zhou Xian, who stood tall, confident and calm, Hogg couldn't help but straighten his chest slightly, and the pride in his eyes became more and more obvious. Yes, his strength might not be worth mentioning in this continent full of strong people, but this boy in front of him, the child he raised as his own son, was so outstanding and powerful that it was amazing.
The corners of his mouth lifted up unconsciously, and a proud smile spread across his face. In the past, he blamed himself and felt guilty for not being able to revive the Baruch family, but now, with the appearance of Zhou Xian, he saw the future of the family's revival. Although I am incompetent, my son is amazing.
"Aatrox, the future of the Baruch family is in your hands." Hogg stepped forward and gently patted Zhou Xian on the shoulder, his tone full of relief and relief, as if a certain burden had been lifted. "By the way, godfather, I have found out a little about my background recently. My name is not Aatrox, but Zhou Xian."
Zhou Xian looked at Hogg sincerely. After awakening his memories of his past life, he no longer wanted to use the name given to him by others. He was Zhou Xian, not anyone else.
Hogg was slightly startled when he heard this, and a little surprise appeared on his face. He opened his mouth and was about to say something, but paused. After a while, he slowly spoke, his voice a little hoarse: "Zhou Xian... This name is good. No matter what you are called, in your adoptive father's heart, you will always be my child."
Hogg's eyes were full of kindness. He reached out and gently touched Zhou Xian's head, as if he had returned to the time when Zhou Xian was a child and he was taking care of the child. He did not ask about Zhou Xian's life experience.
Zhou Xian was touched. He nodded vigorously, his eyes slightly red. "Adoptive father, I will always remember your kindness in raising me over the years. My name is Zhou Xian Baruch. You will always be my adoptive father, and Wushan Town will always be my home."
The little fox seemed to sense the solemn atmosphere, and called a few times, rubbing Zhou Xian's legs. Zhou Xian looked down at the little fox, then looked at Hogg, with a warm smile on his face. Hogg also smiled and patted Zhou Xian on the shoulder: "Okay, with your words, godfather is relieved. No matter what your background is, you are a member of the Baruch family."
Zhou Xian stayed in Wushan Town for several days. He accompanied Hogg and walked around the town, revisiting the past. During the day, he would help the townspeople with things within his ability, and occasionally teach the children who used to do morning exercises with him some experience and skills of cultivation, which attracted many people to gather around him, their eyes full of admiration and desire.
At night, Zhou Xian sat in the yard with Hogg, listening to Hogg tell about the former glory and honor of the Baruch family, as well as the lost family secrets. The little fox lay obediently at Zhou Xian's feet, occasionally raising its head and blinking its bright eyes, as if it was listening carefully.
In the past few days, Zhou Xian completely abandoned cultivation and immersed himself in the peaceful atmosphere of Wushan Town. He chatted with Hogg every day, helped the townspeople with chores, and occasionally teased the little fox. His life was simple and comfortable.
In the early morning, he would go to the fields to work with the townspeople, feeling the fragrance of the soil and the warmth of the sun; in the afternoon, he would sit in the shade of the trees and listen to the old people telling those ancient stories; at night, he would sit opposite Hogg to the sound of insects and chat about the future of the family.
But who would have thought that this seemingly leisurely life would actually allow Zhou Xian to have an amazing breakthrough in his strength. One evening, he strolled along the river outside the town as usual, watching the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the water, creating ripples. A breeze blew by, carrying the scent of soil and grass. He took a deep breath, and his body and mind relaxed like never before.
At this moment, a wonderful feeling came over him. He seemed to be integrated with the world around him, and could clearly feel the flow of elements in the air, the pulse of the earth, and the vastness of the sky. It was a sudden realization of the power of heaven and earth. The power that he had been pursuing but could not grasp before was now so naturally displayed in front of him.
Zhou Xian was so excited that he immediately sat cross-legged, trying to seize this rare opportunity. When he slowly opened his eyes, they were shining brightly. He stood up and looked in the direction of Wushan Town, his heart full of emotion.
I thought my original strength would stagnate due to the slackness of the past few days, but I didn't expect that I would unexpectedly comprehend the power of heaven and earth because of this tranquility. As long as my fighting spirit and magic power are accumulated enough, it will be easy to break through the holy realm.
