Zongwu: Aspiring to be the mastermind behind the scenes

Chapter 44 The Mystery of Bloodline, Yin Zhong's Observation

After returning home, Zhou Ming went into the study, and told no one to approach him. He once again took out the jade tablet heavenly book and began to study it.

At the same time, he was constantly recalling the plot of "Shuiyuedongtian".

"Heavenly Eye...Heavenly Eye..."

Zhou Ming's eyes moved, and a piece of information in the plot came to his mind.

The Tong family in Shuiyue Cave are descendants of gods. They have the blood of gods flowing in their bodies and possess the mysterious power to sense the heaven and earth and control the power of heaven and earth.

Cultivating this power and then using it becomes magic.

But even within this clan, those who possess magical talent are only a minority.

Moreover, as time goes by and bloodlines are passed down from generation to generation, there will be fewer and fewer people with talent.

By the time the plot unfolds, only a handful of people in the entire Tong family have this talent and can learn magic.

Among these few people, most are just elders of the older generation.

Only one person is from the younger generation.

That is the protagonist, Tong Xin, the youngest of the three Tong brothers.

As the name suggests, Tongxin has incomplete intellectual development and looks like a teenager, but he has the heart of a child.

This led to him becoming friends with Yin Zhong by accident, and he was even used by Yin Zhong.

Before the final battle in the plot, Yin Zhong saw that Tong Xin had this kind of magical talent, so he helped him open his third eye and taught him magic.

I hope to use this magical ability of Tongxin to help myself.

In other words, the Tong family, and possibly all descendants of gods, even if they have a talent for magic, must open their third eye if they want to learn magic.

Opening the third eye is a prerequisite for learning all magic spells!

"According to him, this heavenly book can only be read by the divine eye. Could it be that the magic spells recorded in the book are those of the Tong family... Wait, why did Yin Zhong give this book to me?"

Zhou Ming discovered the highlight.

"Could it be that... I possess this kind of magical talent? Am I a descendant of the Tong family?!"

He stood there in a daze, unable to believe his own inference.

"No, no, it's not just the Tong family that possesses divine blood in this world, there are other divine blood clans as well!

That's not right. If I were from another divine blood clan, why would Yin Zhong give me the Heavenly Book? The spells he asked me to learn are probably the spells of the Tong clan... Then I am still a member of the Tong clan!
That's not right. If I were a member of the Tong family, Yin Zhong would have killed me after discovering it. Why would he have given me the Heavenly Book?"

Yin Zhong hated the Tong family deeply.

At the beginning, he provoked the monarch to anger and wanted to destroy the Tong family. When the Tong family got the news and fled, he led the troops to hunt them down.

If it weren't for the rescue of General Long Teng of the Long clan, the Tong clan would have been completely wiped out at that time.

Since then, the Tong family has lived in seclusion and no longer appeared in the world, so naturally it is impossible for their bloodline to be passed down to the world.

It was even impossible for any bloodline to remain from that incident... because Yin Zhong was later resurrected.

After his resurrection, he still remembered the hatred. While looking for the Tong family, he was also constantly hunting down the Long family.

Later, the entire Long family was wiped out by him.

If the Long family is like this, what about the Tong family?

If there is any bloodline of the Tong family circulating outside, he will definitely find and kill it!

With Yin Zhong's abilities, Zhou Ming really didn't think anyone could escape his pursuit.

If there really are any descendants of the Tong family left in this world, then they are probably only... the descendants of Yin Zhong!
You should know that Yin Zhong's original name was Tong Yin Zhong, and he was actually a member of the Tong family.

His bloodline descendants are naturally the bloodline of the Tong family!
Yu Jian Villa can actually be called the external branch of the Tong family.

However, even in Shuiyue Cave Heaven, the number of children born from intra-clan marriages within the Tong family who possess magical talent is decreasing, not to mention the children born from Yujian Villa with bloodlines from other outsiders.

Therefore, Yu Jian Villa has been passed down for hundreds of years, but there is no one with magical talent.

Moreover, the population of Yu Jian Villa is not large. After being passed down for hundreds of years, there are only a handful of people left in this generation.

In addition, the ancestor Yin Zhong has been controlling things secretly.

As a result, Yujian Villa only developed in the ancient Shu Kingdom and basically did not expand outside.

The possibility of the Tong family's bloodline appearing in the outside world is even more slim!
"Then I..."

Zhou Ming thought about it over and over again, but couldn't figure out how he got here.

Wait!
There is a person in Yujian Villa who always runs out frequently.

That person even traveled thousands of miles to Ming Country before the New Year. He just left...

If we must say that there might be an outflowing bloodline, it might be...

"No way……"

This conjecture is too bold.

Zhou Ming was shocked by himself.

................................................

Outside the capital.

The caravan from Yujian Villa moved forward slowly.

"Second Master, since something happened at the villa, shouldn't we... speed up..."

A middle-aged man approached on horseback.

"Ok?"

Yin Zhong's face was expressionless: "Are you teaching me how to do things?"

"My humble fault, Master, please forgive me."

"Humph!"

Yin Zhong rode his horse in front of the entire caravan, moving forward slowly without showing any sign of anxiety.

I set out to come to the capital of the Ming Dynasty half a year ago, saying I was doing business, but it was actually just an excuse.

His only purpose was to come to Pei Ju's mansion and see Zhou Ming.

Then, Pei Ju talked about the 100th birthday of Wudang Master Zhang and asked him to stay and see.

Haha, what’s so interesting about a centenarian kid’s birthday?

But Yin Zhong agreed without hesitation, just to stay for a while and observe Zhou Ming carefully.

He was also very satisfied with the results of his observations.

In terms of talent, Zhou Ming is extremely qualified.

Whether it is his talent in martial arts that he has already shown, or his talent in practicing magic that he has not yet shown.

In terms of intelligence, he is not bad either.

After Pei Ju briefly explained the situation in the court, he was able to understand it and make certain judgments about the future situation.

I wouldn't say I'm extremely smart, but I'm definitely better than many people.

The only thing that made Yin Zhong dissatisfied was that Zhou Ming seemed to have no ambition.

To put it nicely, it means being content with poverty.

To put it bluntly, it's a salted fish!
However, Yin Zhong soon discovered that Zhou Ming was not really without ambition, but was rather arrogant.

It seems that he doesn't care about the nine provinces and four seas, the supreme emperor, the princes, and the generals.

Because I don’t care, I don’t have ambition.

Just like no one would deliberately pursue a handful of dust.

In Zhou Ming's heart, those things mentioned above are just a handful of dust.

For Yin Zhong, this is actually a good thing.

And having no ambition does not mean having no desire.

Once any desire arises in his mind, under this arrogance, he may be more terrifying than those ambitious people.

So, he finally recognized Zhou Ming.

"Ok?"

Yin Zhong suddenly turned around and saw a dazzling beam of light shooting straight into the sky and piercing the clouds in the capital.

"Second Master."

Seeing this, his men quickly reined in their horses and looked back curiously, but they saw nothing.

"Hahaha, I thought it would take two more days, but I didn't expect that I would figure out the mystery of the Heavenly Eye so quickly and open it directly! Hahaha..."

Yin Zhong ignored his men, his eyes fixed on the strange vision that only he could see, thinking: "As expected..."

My...son!
