Douluo: Cutting me drops treasures; Bi Bidong got addicted

"Seems like it? It's certain!"

From her tone, it was apparent that Gu Yuena was quite furious. Had she not restrained herself, she probably would have stomped her foot as she spat out those words.

Thousand Waves and Poseissi were rendered speechless by the retort, offering awkward smiles as they took a few steps back. Gu Yuena wanted to continue her interrogation, but seeing Chen Xin standing there with a look of utter dejection, she suddenly felt... the biggest loser wasn't herself.

Gu Yuena's mood improved slightly, but she still glared at Thousand Waves before returning to the crowd.

When Chen Xin saw Lin Yi approaching, he shook his head with great weakness and sorrow, "Senior, let's not talk about it, let's not talk about anything... Ah, forget it..."

Lin Yi, "Are you going to cry?"

Chen Xin waved his hand, "No... Ah, forget it, as long as I wasn't downgraded, I still have the Golden Junior reward, right?"

Lin Yi, "Mhm."

He walked back to the stands and sat down, then opened the panel in front of him, displaying Chen Xin's current Golden Junior reward.

Lin Yi, "Your reward is... Bloodline Dialogue."

"Bloodline Dialogue?"

It was a reward that didn't seem immediately understandable, and Chen Xin asked his question, waiting for Lin Yi's explanation.

Lin Yi, "As the name suggests, this reward allows you to converse with people who share the same bloodline as you, that is, with your direct relatives. Each day, the person you can talk to is different, refreshing daily. It could be your ancestors or your descendants. There's no limit to the content of the conversation, nor the number of times you can speak each day, but you have to initiate each conversation."

After hearing Lin Yi's explanation, Chen Xin roughly understood what the reward meant.

If it's direct relatives, that would be his father, grandfather, great-grandfather, or perhaps his mother's lineage... those are ancestors.

It could also mean his son, daughter, grandson, granddaughter, or other descendants.

Chen Xin fell silent for a moment. Up to this point, he didn't have any bloodline kin in this world—no distant relatives, either. The appearance of this reward truly left him feeling somewhat bewildered.

To be honest, he wished he could talk to his father and mother. Although the others were also relatives, they were not familiar. Communication with them would surely be novel.

Lin Yi raised his hand and handed over the Golden Junior reward to Chen Xin.

Upon integration, everyone noticed that two different-colored glows appeared on either side of Chen Xin's head. The left side was red, the right side blue, with twinkling starlight within, as if concealing shining stars, and both glows extended into the distance, gradually fading in color.

Lin Yi, "The red glow on the left contains light spots representing your ancestors, with the two closest to you definitely being your parents. The blue orbs on the right represent your descendants, and similarly, the closest to you would be your son or daughter."

After the explanation, Chen Xin said something that made everyone struggle to contain their laughter.

"So it turns out I have descendants..."

Lin Yi, "At least for now you do, but if your thinking deviates, like suddenly not wanting to be involved with women, then those descendants... that is, the light spots in the blue glow would also disappear. In other words, you can easily change the future now, but you can't change the past."

Chen Xin suddenly looked up, "But the people from the past can change me, because I am their future, right?"

"Right."

Chen Xin suddenly got excited and immediately followed up, "Is the person I talk to each day random, or can I choose who to converse with?"

If he could choose, he would opt to only talk to his ancestors. Only by communicating with ancestors could he bring substantial help for himself. Talking to descendants would only benefit them, and Chen Xin wasn't particularly interested in helping descendants.

But Lin Yi's reply poured cold water on his expectations.

Lin Yi, "It's random; you can't choose."

"Alright then..."

Chen Xin helplessly nodded his head, "Okay, I'll try."

He began to use the reward, with the red light on the left and the blue light on the right flickering back and forth nonstop, as if undergoing this random process.

About ten seconds later, the flashing lights finally stopped, and Chen Xin crazily glanced at the scene with his peripheral vision, eventually noticing that it was the blue light on the right that lit up.

"Damn it..."

He cursed dejectedly.

But the next scene made him pause slightly because the closest light point within the blue glow on the right lit up.

That meant the person he could converse with today was actually his son or daughter!

Chen Xin's attention was drawn over, and Gu Rong and Sect Master Ning also instantly became curious.

What made Lin Yi couldn't help but smile was that at this moment, a "beep... beep" busy tone of a phone call started.

It connected!

The other side didn't speak, and that's when Chen Xin suddenly saw Lin Yi's reminder, "You have to speak first because the other party doesn't know yet that a conversation has been connected."

Chen Xin nodded and tried saying somewhat nervously, "Hello?"

No response.

Chen Xin said again, "Hello?"

"Damn! Who's in my head?!"

There was a response, from a girl! And everyone at the scene could hear her voice.

Chen Xin was stunned, then suddenly felt like laughing—was it his daughter?

He had even thought about speaking in a stern "fatherly" tone, but hearing that it was his daughter, he subconsciously wanted to be gentle.

Chen Xin, "Don't be scared. First off, being able to hear voices in your own head is pretty absurd, right? So, my identity must also seem pretty absurd to you."

Girl, "…I've already figured it out; it's you, Dad. How did you do it? Aren't you at the sect right now?"

Chen Xin was taken aback.

Thinking carefully, the girl's voice didn't sound very old, probably around seventeen or eighteen years old, so that would mean...

Chen Xin, "Ah, I thought too much, so I'm not dead at this time yet... How old are you this year?"

Daughter, "You don't know how old I am? You're so boring. Tell me how you did this fast, or I'm going to skip class and come find you at the sect."

Everyone exchanged glances, feeling surprised—the girl from this period was still alive, and if she really met Chen Xin, she'd probably think the voice in her head was a ghost.

Chen Xin, "No need to look for me, I come from the past, from a time before you were born, and I'm communicating with you through a special ability called Bloodline Dialogue, so I don't even know when you were born."

Girl, "Is it from Lin Yi? Is he still on Douluo at this time?"

Hearing this, Chen Xin turned his head strangely to look at Lin Yi, and everyone else's gaze followed suit.

The girl seemed to know Lin Yi, and could even immediately guess whose special ability Chen Xin had, but it seemed... during her time, Lin Yi wasn't around anymore?
