One Trait Draw Per Year Even Simulations Count

[Although Black Wind carried the three of you out of the army’s encirclement,]

[with fifty thousand troops spread out, the encirclement and pursuit from all sides kept you constantly on the run.]

["Boss, we can’t shake these people!"]

[After you fled, the Peace Force began a full-speed pursuit.]

[The colorful clouds beneath their feet were released by some Spiritual Treasure; once they went all out, they could barely catch Black Wind’s trail.]

[The problem was, once they flew at full speed, stopping was quite troublesome.]

[If Black Wind made a sharp turn or sudden stop, they could throw off a portion of them.]

[But with so many enemies coming from every direction, there were always some who caught up.]

[If you couldn’t shake them, once Jin Hai recovered or called in stronger foes, you still wouldn’t escape.]

["Xiao Yi, Xiao Yue, the two of you go. I’ll clear a path for you."]

[Ji Wuqing said firmly.]

["Dad! I’ll stay with you!"]

[From the horse’s back, you spread your hands helplessly.]

["What! If you two don’t leave, I’ll have come all this way for nothing! And I’ve dragged along an Immortal King monkey, even if this monkey can only land one blow."]

[Just as the atmosphere grew awkward,]

[a clear, cold female voice reached the three of your ears.]

["Twenty li due south, halfway up the hill—there’s a teleportation divine mark carved there. Fly into it."]

[Ji Baiming frowned.]

["Who’s speaking?"]

[You and Ji Wuqing shook your heads.]

[Ji Wuqing looked at you.]

["Should we trust her?"]

[You surveyed the pursuers closing in from all sides.]

["Let’s give it a try. Those bastards in the Peace Force are mobilizing Vermilion Violet Star’s local forces. If everyone comes after us, we’re definitely not getting away!"]

[Desperate times called for desperate measures!]

[You and Ji Wuqing stayed on the horse’s back while Ji Baiming rode the waves behind, all heading toward the direction the voice had indicated.]

[When you got closer, you saw that on the half-slope of a low mountain, there was indeed a massive black divine mark.]

[Ji Baiming marveled.]

["Such a complex and profound Emperor-level divine mark! Whoever can use it is definitely no ordinary person!"]

[Common divine marks were gold, noble divine marks were red, and Emperor-level divine marks were black.]

[This was the first time you had ever seen an Emperor-level divine mark.]

[Whoever could use divine marks was most likely not human.]

[But as Ji Baiming said, someone capable of using an Emperor-level divine mark was certainly not simple. If they wanted to harm you, they wouldn’t need to beat around the bush.]

[You three were already in such a sorry state; they could just kick you while you were down.]

[You guided Black Wind, and the three of you along with the horse collided with the divine mark.]

[Ripples of space spread across the divine mark’s surface, and the three of you, the horse, and the Emperor-level divine mark vanished simultaneously.]

[The next moment, you appeared deep underground.]

[This was a natural underground cavern, with underground water flowing nearby, making a gurgling sound.]

[It was pitch black all around. You casually tossed out a few clumps of true fire, illuminating the entire space.]

[Then you saw someone.]

[A woman, dressed in simple white clothes, wearing a bamboo hat with white gauze that concealed her face.]

[Through your Divine Art probing, you sensed her cultivation level was Transcendent Realm Middle Stage.]

[But strangely enough, her cultivation level was actually fluctuating.]

[At first, the perception was Transcendent Realm Middle Stage; after a while, it dropped to Transcendent Realm Early Stage, then even hit Extreme Terrain Realm, and finally jumped back to Transcendent Middle Stage.]

[You had never heard of such a bizarre cultivation aura.]

[If someone was severely injured, a fluctuation in cultivation level was possible.]

[But this woman in front of you was clearly perfectly fine—so why was her realm jumping back and forth?]

[Ji Baiming cupped his hands toward the woman and said respectfully.]

["It seems you are the one who saved the three of us."]

[The other party did not answer but looked at you instead.]

["Your name is Chen Yi, right?"]

[You had been on Vermilion Violet Star for over a hundred years; it wasn’t surprising that someone knew your name.]

["That’s right."]

["You come from the human world plane within the Void Realm, correct?"]

[Ji Wuqing grew alert and stepped in front of you.]

[Not many people knew you came from the Void Realm; the Ji family had always kept it a secret.]

[Ji Wuqing stared at her.]

["No, you’ve mistaken him for someone else."]

[The woman said calmly.]

["Chen Yi, I hope you answer me. Don’t lie."]

[She had just saved you, and when she asked, the Traffic Light hadn’t triggered a warning, meaning there was no danger at all.]

["That’s right, I came up from the human world."]

["Which part of the human world are you from?"]

["Senior, may I ask why you..."]

["Speak!"]

[Her tone was urgent, but still, there was no danger warning.]

["Five Regions, Great Qian, Qingzhou, Baling Prefecture, Baiyun County."]

[Every time you named a location, the woman’s eyes behind the gauze widened a little more.]

[She slowly removed her bamboo hat.]

[Beneath it was a face you didn’t recognize.]

[But her gaze gave you an inexplicable sense of kinship.]

["Fourth Brother, I am your sister, Chen Yue!"]

[Your eyes went wide.]

["Second Sister?"]

[Chen Yue walked toward you.]

["Ah... it’s me, it’s really me!]

[My appearance changed because when I arrived in the Real Realm, I was only a soul.]

[My master refined billions of dead souls to gather life force for me and regrew my flesh body within the sea of souls!"]

[You were overjoyed.]

[You knew Chen Yue had been pulled up by a Real Realm powerhouse.]

[But the universe was so vast and immense—you never dared to hope you would reunite with your Second Sister in this lifetime.]

[Not to mention her appearance might have changed; when she disappeared, you were still a child. Even if she saw you, she wouldn’t recognize you.]

["Second Sister, how did you recognize me?"]

["Thank that Jin Hai for it."]

[During the earlier struggle with Jin Hai,]

[his Interpersonal Index law had worked on you.]

[Among the lines was one representing familial ties, which connected directly from you to Chen Yue.]

[At the time, you were busy fighting for your life and had no time to look at the words on that mess of tangled threads.]

[But Chen Yue only had to glance down to see the words on that thread: Second Sister - Chen Yue!]

["I was ordered to come to Vermilion Violet Star to deal with the Nether Realm issue in the Southern Star Realm of the Celestial River. Today, I happened to be near the Ji Family Ancestral Land.]

[I never expected that heaven would show mercy, allowing me to reunite with family in the Real Realm after nearly two hundred years.]

[I thought I would never have any connection with my family in the human world again.]

[Fourth Brother, how are Father and Mother? What about Eldest Brother? And Third Sister? Is everyone okay?"]

[You started telling your Second Sister about the human world.]

[Ji Wuqing and her father watched from the side without interrupting.]

[Ji Wuqing was still a bit skeptical.]

["Dad, is this really Chen Yi’s sister?"]

["How should I know! But she can use an Emperor-level divine mark. Who is her master? Teaching a human an Emperor-level divine mark? There aren’t many people who can do that...]

[Wait, she just mentioned the Nether Realm. Hiss! Could it be..."]
