Bab 132: The Prison-Taming Immortal Scripture, Young Man

"Dream Ruins City, the Realm of Dreams, the Great Dream Sovereign…" Lu Xuan's dark eyes deepened. As Ru Shou's consciousness burned away with the milfoil stalk, Lu Xuan witnessed his life story unfold like a movie, revealing the secrets of Dream Ruins City.

Interestingly, after learning about Ru Shou's life, Lu Xuan realized they were somewhat akin. Ru Shou was a seasoned archaeologist, inheriting a family craft and accompanying his grandfather on tomb raids since childhood. During one expedition into an imperial tomb, they unearthed a rare life-extending herb.

Ru Shou, frugal by nature, reasoned that his elderly grandfather had lived long enough and that consuming the herb would be a waste. In a ruthless decision, he buried his grandfather alive in the tomb, giving him an imperial-level burial – a twisted form of filial piety.
