Old Ancestor: Thrown Out By The Nanny From The Start

Chapter 126 Ancestors

“We’ll guarantee complete success!”

Yosef was glad to hear that. He wiped away the dust on his face and nodded. “Patriarch, Moon will be proud to have you!”

Himmel Soan gave him a stern look. Yosef was scared and took a step back. He realized he had said the wrong thing. He wondered if Himmel Soan would scold him. But that didn’t happen.

Himmel Soan sighed and looked up at the sky through the glass ceiling. Despite his young face, his eyes looked old.

“I share the same ancestors with the other Moonians. I’m a descendant of the two ancient emperors, and I’m proud to be one.”

Yosef asked, “Patriarch, I have a question. I hope it won’t offend you.”

“Go ahead.”

“How old are you?”

“I don’t remember.”

Himmel Soan’s eyes looked as old as the universe itself. Looking into them, one would think they could see all the stars.

“One million years? Two million years? I’ve lost count!”

Yosef’s mouth fell open.

One million years old?

Maybe two million?

What…

Had the human race even been around for that long?

“Patriarch, were you born in prehistoric time?”

“No, I was born in the 90s.”

“The 90s? But you were active in 1800!”

Himmel Soan explained, “Something strange happened on a rainy night. When I woke up, I wasn’t in this world. The other world I went to was a civilization created by cultivators. I think you can imagine what it looks like. I lived millions of years over there until I became the most capable cultivator of that world.

“I did everything to return to our world, and I succeeded in the end. However, my physical body was destroyed in the process. I ran into some terrifying monsters when I traveled through spacetime, returning to Earth with severe injuries. The two ancient emperors helped me to fend off those monsters.”

Yosef nodded. “That was why you said you were proud to be their descendant.”

The two ancient emperors were ancestors to all Moonians. There was once an epic war between them. All Moonians considered themselves to have the same ancestors.

Himmel Soan was no exception.

Without the emperors’ help, he would have been killed by the monsters when he returned to Earth.

With his physical form destroyed, Himmel Soan had to practice a unique technique that would rejuvenate him every few decades.

His original body wouldn’t need such a method to achieve immortality.

When he finally recovered from his injuries, the war between the two emperors was over, and it was three thousand years before the feudalistic age started. Himmel Soan had witnessed all the legends, both in the east and the west.

The destruction of the nine suns.

The sun-chaser.

The taming of the great river.

The land reclamation.

The discovery of herbal medicines.

The Vikings.

The pharaohs.

At first, Himmel Soan didn’t dare to help the ancient people because he was afraid he would change the course of history. He was born in the 1990s and shouldn’t be living among the ancient people. If he meddled with the wrong thing, he would change the future and might eventually prevent his parents from meeting each other.

The question bothered him for thousands of years. Then one day, he suddenly figured it out. He had to intervene because he couldn’t meet himself in this world.

There couldn’t be two Himmel Soans in this timeline. One of them had to disappear. It was the law of Nature. One universe could only have one Himmel Soan. Therefore, he needed to change something.

His parents and grandparents couldn’t be born. It also meant he would never see his parents again. If he wanted to see them, he had to travel to the future. He could fill in the blanks of Himmel Soan that was missing from this universe.

That was the only way he could exist here. Unless he would be willing to kill “himself.”

Therefore, he started helping the people in this universe two thousand years ago. He didn’t start until human civilization was formed.

Since 1800, Himmel Soan began helping the human race more often, and human society was making faster progress.

He knew he was going to be born in 1990, so he had 190 years to locate his direct ancestors. As for where he would start, he decided to improvise.

His father was born in 1976. However, Himmel Soan couldn’t allow him to marry and have children. If that happened, another Himmel Soan would be born.

If the Himmel Soan in this universe was created, the other Himmel Soan had to disappear.

He had lived millions of years in a strange world and paid dearly to return to his old world. Of course, he wouldn’t accept that fate.

It might not be the most decent thing to do, but he had no other choice. His survival would benefit this world more than his disappearance.

Moreover, since he didn’t belong to this universe, technically, his parents here weren’t his birth parents. His real parents were in the universe where he couldn’t go back. Therefore, he made sure his extended family in his universe all became rich and lived comfortably.

That was his way of compensating his parents.

His father was Tim Soan, and his mother was May Young. On the day Tim and May were supposed to get married, Himmel Soan had Tim arrested and sent abroad so that the couple would be parted forever.

The Himmel Soan in his universe had been completely wiped out.

Tim was in his 50s now and was still single. He had become a rich businessman in another country.

May was also in her 50s. She still lived in Moon and had married someone else. Her husband was infertile, so they had no children. They were a wealthy couple with countless properties. It was also Himmel Soan’s way to compensate them.

At first, it made Himmel Soan sad to think about what he had done.

By now, he had moved on and was no longer affected by it.

“You said nothing wrong. Yosef, go back to your work.”

It had been years since he talked about himself. If Yosef hadn’t brought it up, he would have forgotten about it.

Himmel Soan never doubted anyone in the Soan empire. It wasn’t a confidential matter, and he wouldn’t mind telling them about it. However, he would only do that when he was in a good mood.

It was the first time that Yosef had heard about his Patriarch’s past. He nodded. “Of course, Patriarch.”
