As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at Nannan.

Including Su Mu, whose face was full of surprise. The Barrier Beast was born in such ancient times with a long history; how could Nannan have seen it?

Upon hearing this, the Barrier Beast also looked up at the little girl with a puzzled expression.

The master’s daughter, who seems to be less than ten years old, how could she recognize us??

"Nannan, how did you see them?" Su Mu asked Nannan.

Hearing this, Nannan waved her hand and said: "No, no, no, Dad, I misspoke."

"I haven’t seen them in reality."

"I saw them in a dream."

"Do you have a Crescent Staff?"

Hearing Nannan’s words, the Barrier Beasts looked at each other in disbelief.

With a wave of their small hands, a Crescent Staff appeared in their grip.

Upon seeing this, Su Mu was also stunned.

It seems that Nannan really did dream of the Barrier Beast??

Dreams are a mysterious thing; sometimes, they can predict certain events, dreaming of things never seen before, which is quite normal.

However, the Barrier Beast is transformed from an "Origin Boundary Stone," an ancient existence.

Logically speaking, with Nannan’s capability and vision, she shouldn’t have been able to dream of it.....

After Nannan accurately mentioned their Crescent Staff, the two Barrier Beasts were also shocked. What kind of background does the master’s daughter have??

No matter how you look at it, her actual bone age is less than ten years!

The "Primordial Divine Stone" is one of the Ten Great Divine Stones born after the Ten Thousand Realms came into existence, bearing immense karma. Without any connection, it’s impossible to dream of it out of nowhere.

After hearing Nannan’s words, although Su Mu was greatly surprised, he wasn’t too shocked.

Because he’s experienced such situations before.

For instance, some ancient texts he couldn’t recognize, but Nannan could.

When asked why, she couldn’t explain it herself.

Therefore, Su Mu has always been curious about Nannan’s origin. He found her when she was just a few months old, and he has been raising her ever since.

Nannan’s ability to recognize certain things and dream of others must be related to the months before he found her.

The river he guards is vast and wide, with countless tributaries.

He suspects that Nannan was abandoned on the river by her heartless biological parents and has no idea how long she drifted on the icy river....

He has never asked Nannan if she remembers anything from when she was born because Su Mu doesn’t want Nannan to know that he is not her biological father.

If her biological parents never come looking for her or show up, he will keep this secret hidden for a lifetime, never letting her know.

...

"When did you dream of it?" Su Mu continued to inquire.

"I think it was one night four years ago. I still remember that day because Dad had just taught me to make a dish called ’Sweet and Sour Carp.’"

Nannan’s memory is incredibly strong; she remembers every detail, even every detail of the dream from that day.

"Do you still remember the content of the dream?"

"I remember," Nannan nodded.

"I remember, in a very dark place, surrounded by nothingness."

"Then, suddenly, a turquoise-black stone appeared in the void, and this stone, I don’t know what struck it, was split into two."

"That was the first part of the dream."

"And then, I don’t know how much time passed in the dream, the scene switched."

"The two pieces of the split stone turned into their forms, exactly the same."

Having said that, Nannan pointed to the two Barrier Beasts.

Upon hearing this, the Iron-Eating Beast and the two Barrier Beasts gasped in shock.

Is the little master dreaming about the scene when the Barrier Beast was born?! This is a bit too absurd, isn’t it??

The time when the Barrier Beast was born was when the Ten Thousand Realms had just evolved, and at that time, creatures had not yet been born, and world rules were not formed.

That scene, even the Barrier Beast itself hasn’t seen.

Because when the "Origin Boundary Stone" was born, the Barrier Beast hadn’t appeared yet. To be precise, it was only after an extremely long epoch that the "Boundary Stone," split into two, developed intelligence, and the Barrier Beast appeared.

So, the Barrier Beast itself hadn’t seen the scene and yet was dreamed of by a little girl under ten years old??

After hearing Nannan’s words, Su Mu fell into silence as well.

He knew that the scene Nannan described in her dream was the scene of the Barrier Beast’s birth.

As for why Nannan would dream of it, he doesn’t want to delve too deeply, as he doesn’t want to drag Nannan into a game of chess.

He changed the subject, saying: "Alright, let’s drop this topic here. Dreams are inherently mysterious; dreaming of some strange things is quite normal, likely just a coincidence."

The Barrier Beast understood the master’s intention. While they are simple-minded, they can still read the room.

They should correct their attitude, and regarding why the little master has seen them, they shouldn’t ask further. Some things are better left unknown.

.....

"Do you two have names?" Su Mu asked the two Barrier Beasts.

Upon hearing this, the Barrier Beasts shook their heads as they had never considered this issue.

They referred to each other simply with the word, "Hey!"

"From now on, you will be ’Big Ear,’ and you will be ’Big Eye.’

Su Mu gave them nicknames based on their physical traits.

Hearing this, the two Barrier Beasts nodded satisfactorily; names aren’t important. What matters is that someone gave them names and treats them like family, which touched them the most.

"Big Eye and Big Ear, you two will be responsible for guarding the front yard from now on."

Su Mu took in the two Barrier Beasts with the intention of having them keep watch over the house.

The two Barrier Beasts nodded heavily; guarding the door is exactly their area of expertise. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"If you encounter any problems in daily life or in cultivation, feel free to come to me."

"If you’re hungry, there are plenty of vegetables growing in the backyard, eat all you want, it’s not an issue."

Su Mu said to the two Barrier Beasts with a smile.

The task of guarding the front yard falls to them; what about me?

What should I do??

The Iron-Eating Beast was thrown into disarray, feeling as though... it just got laid off!

At that moment, a strong sense of crisis surged in its heart.

"Mas...master, what about me?"

The Iron-Eating Beast cautiously asked Su Mu.

"You can help out in the backyard."

Upon hearing the master’s response, the Iron-Eating Beast was stunned and froze where it stood.

Were it not for the crowd, it might have cried out loud!

These two guys have replaced its position and taken its job!
