After traveling through the book, I conquered the male protagonist Long Aotian!

"Something owed?"

Gu Qingze immediately grasped the key words in Shangguan Nana's words.

"Ah."

Shangguan Nana took another sip of tea and then put it down.

"Do you know the origin of the name Qianyao Kingdom?"

She suddenly asked a question that seemed unrelated to the previous topic.

Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao looked at each other and shook their heads.

They knew about Qianyao Country because of this mission. As for what happened in this country or what it experienced, they knew nothing about it.

"The reason why Qianyao Country is called Qianyao Country is because of the existence of Qianyao Beast."

Shangguan Nana seemed to be lost in deep memories, her eyes quietly looking at the teacup in front of her.

"Thousand Brilliance Beast?"

Gu Qingze searched for relevant information in his mind over and over again, but found nothing.

However, he believed that Shangguan Nana's words were definitely not spoken casually for no reason, and there must be a connection. Perhaps Qianyao Beast was the rebellious spirit beast mentioned in the mission.

"A long time ago, this place was not called Qianyao Country, but Mumu Country."

"At that time, people lived on farming and could barely fill their stomachs every year. But suddenly, as if cursed, the fields failed and people were starving to death. They ate grass, tree bark... and finally started eating humans, even newborn babies."

Shangguan Nana paused here before continuing.

"Just when people were in despair, the Thousand Shining Beast appeared. It was shining with golden light, and every step it took left many golden seeds behind it. These seeds quickly took root and sprouted, growing food. Just like that, people were saved."

"So, people named this land Qianyao Kingdom to commemorate Qianyaomon's achievements. However, as time went by, Qianyaomon's power gradually weakened and eventually disappeared. But the legend about it has been passed down to this day..."

After hearing this story, Gu Qingze was slightly stunned. Could it be that he had guessed wrong before, and the rebellious beast was not the Qianyao Beast, and Shangguan Nana told them this just to popularize the history of Qianyao Kingdom to them?

After saying this, Shangguan Nana suddenly laughed, but her laugh was filled with more bitterness.

"Of course, this is just the most widely circulated version."

"On the surface? Could it be that the ending of this story is fake?"

Gu Qingze expressed his guess.

"good."

Shangguan Nana nodded.

"Chienyaomon didn't disappear, but was... imprisoned."

"Imprisoned?!"

"In fact, father does not want you to know this. After all, this is a scandal of the royal family. If it was father you found today, he would have used another set of perfect words to deal with you, and then let you kill Qianyaomon. In this way, after the evidence of the murder is destroyed, no one will know this secret anymore."

When Shangguan Nana said this, she suddenly showed an earnest expression.

"My father's appeal in Qingyun Sect was to kill Qianyao Beast, but... could you please not kill it? Qianyao Beast did nothing wrong. Although it destroyed some houses, it never hurt the people... and it did this for a reason."

"So, meeting you on the street this time was not a coincidence?"

Gu Qingze focused his attention elsewhere.
