Chapter 13: I'm Accusing You of Infant Abuse!

“Such powerful strength!”

After locking eyes with Gu Lingsha for dozens of seconds, this man, whose features were originally beautiful to the extreme, finally set her down with a distorted expression. “To think an infant could possess such immense power, this is simply inconceivable!”

Gu Lingsha blinked her long-dried eyes, and as tears finally streamed down her face, she thought to herself, *Young Master, it’s just a few minor tricks; there is no need to be so shocked.*

But unfortunately, this freakish man, who completely refused to follow conventional logic, not only displayed unprecedented shock after probing Gu Lingsha's special ability, but also leaned his bewitching face even closer: “I have decided—I shall take you as my disciple!”

Gu Lingsha was finally petrified!

“An infant's body is the purest vessel of infinite capacity in this mortal world. If one were to cultivate, they would grow far more powerful and rapid than an ordinary person. Although you currently possess neither battle qi nor a summoned spirit, if given time to use mental cultivation methods to clear all the meridians in your body, little one, your future will be limitless.”

As he spoke, the nation-topplingly beautiful man looked at Gu Lingsha. The burning radiance flashing within those beautiful peach-blossom eyes was like the brilliant stars hanging in the mid-sky; it made Gu Lingsha feel exceptionally dizzy.

As an absolute powerhouse from her previous life, Gu Lingsha naturally hoped to make a name for herself in this life. But despite her wishes, being suddenly blindsided by this man of unknown origin made her genuinely worry—had she encountered a psychopath?

After all, for someone to say such things to a one-month-old infant, if he wasn't truly formidable, there was a high probability that his mind was abnormal.

“What? Little one, do you not believe me?” As if seeing through Gu Lingsha's anxiety, the man of celestial grace lowered his head and asked once more.

Gu Lingsha wanted to deny it, but after much deliberation, she chose instead to quietly gaze at this man who was smiling like a blooming peony.

“Hmm, it is right that you do not believe me. After all, you are so young. How about this: I, Feng Wurao, shall plant my Life-Death Talisman upon you. If anything should happen to you in the future, I shall not live either. How does that sound?”

As his voice fell, his snow-white sleeve, embroidered with large golden peonies, lightly brushed in front of Gu Lingsha.

Gu Lingsha was slightly stunned. Just as she was about to refuse, she found that following a faint scent of sandalwood, a fair finger as pure as jade quickly rippled out a drop of crystal-clear, ice-like substance, which gently pressed between her eyebrows.

The Life-Death Talisman—a contract incantation that could only be practiced after becoming a Great Summoner. Once the Life-Death Talisman is planted, if you live, I live; if you die, I die as well!

In the entire Cangming Continent, aside from the one time four hundred years ago when the only Hall-level Summoner of the Nanzhao Empire, Feng Wurao, used it, no one in this world had ever seen it a second time!

But now, this man claimed to be Feng Wurao, and he had actually planted the Life-Death Talisman on her!

This world... really has lost its mind...

“Starting tomorrow, I will come once every five days. Before you turn three, I will use mental cultivation to clear every meridian in your body. Once you can fully integrate your special abilities into this shell, I will make you the only God-level Summoner in the entire Cangming Continent!”

Gu Lingsha's brain began to short-circuit. A God-level Summoner? That was a rank higher than even the Hall-level. If this man truly was Feng Wurao, and he intended to teach a disciple who would surpass him, was he trying to make life difficult for himself?

But unfortunately, this time, before Gu Lingsha could even ask, the man vanished without a trace, just as he had arrived.

Left lying all alone on the bed, it took a long time for Gu Lingsha to think: *Screw you! You didn't even put me in a crib! How am I supposed to explain this to my parents tomorrow?*
