Cui Yanshui slowly opened her eyes and discovered that everything around her was unbearably familiar.
What was going on?
Hadn’t she clearly died in the Divine Sea Abyss?
So how was she alive again now?
And this place seemed to be... the former Cui family.
Cui Yanshui frowned tightly and walked out from the cultivation grounds.
The passing divine attendants all bowed respectfully. Members of the Cui family branches who passed by lowered their heads obediently and greeted her as Eldest Sister.
There were so many people.
Cui Yanshui had not experienced this feeling for a very, very long time.
The faces that had become blurred in her memories were now appearing before her once again.
It really was enough to bring tears to her eyes.
However, tears from Cui Yanshui were an enormous matter within the main branch of the Cui family.
The surrounding members of the Cui family branches and the divine attendants all became incomparably terrified, thinking they must have done something wrong. One after another, they dropped to their knees.
Very quickly, even Cui Baisheng, the head of the Cui family, was alarmed.
Looking at his tearful daughter, he immediately felt his heart ache.
Wasn’t her closed-door cultivation going perfectly fine? Why was she crying the moment she came out?
Had she encountered some bottleneck? Or perhaps failed to break through her realm?
Thinking of this, Cui Baisheng hurriedly comforted her.
“It’s fine, precious daughter. No matter what happened, none of it matters. Don’t take it to heart. The Ten Thousand Year Frost Fruit just arrived recently. Daddy will take you to try some, alright?”
Seeing her father appear before her once again, Cui Yanshui cried even harder.
That scene nearly broke Cui Baisheng’s heart.
At that moment, even if Cui Yanshui wanted the stars in the sky, he would have dragged them down for her without hesitation.
So Cui Baisheng quickly stepped forward and took out a handkerchief to wipe away the tears on Cui Yanshui’s face.
“Oh, my little ancestor, please stop crying. If you don’t want to eat the Ten Thousand Year Frost Fruit, then we won’t eat it. Just tell Daddy what you want. Daddy will agree to anything!”
Cui Yanshui slowly looked around.
At this point, she could already confirm it.
She seemed to have been reborn.
Since everything had begun again—
Then this time, she would also begin again with Ye Yu.
Thinking of this, Cui Yanshui spoke with incomparable seriousness.
“Daddy, I want to get married!”
The moment those words came out, the entire place fell silent.
The smile on Cui Baisheng’s face froze completely, and at the same time, he felt as though something inside him had shattered.
Oh.
It was the heart of an old father.
His daughter was still so young. How could she suddenly want to get married?
Which bastard had stolen her heart?
Cui Baisheng forcefully restrained his emotions and gently asked, “Why do you suddenly want to get married? That’s a major matter. You absolutely must think it through carefully. And first, you have to bring the person here so Daddy can take a look and judge his character for you.
What if you meet a bad person?
So this matter still needs long-term consideration!”
Cui Yanshui answered very seriously, “I don’t want long-term consideration. I want to get married now. The sooner the better. Tomorrow would be best. The person I want to marry is Ye Yu, the only son of Shi Tiange from Xuanji Hall.”
Cui Baisheng nearly ground his teeth to pieces.
So the bastard’s name was Ye Yu?
No, wait.
How exactly had he bewitched Xiao Shui?
How could he make her this devoted?
And most importantly, Xiao Shui had been in closed-door cultivation this entire time. She had never gone outside at all!
Forget it. None of that matters.
What matters is that I personally need to see what kind of brat this Ye Yu really is!
Shi Tiange’s only son?
He had never heard of him before.
Cui Baisheng immediately brought his wife to Xuanji Hall.
They went there full of fury and returned utterly bewildered.
“What? Shi Tiange doesn’t have a child?”
Cui Yanshui looked at Cui Baisheng and her mother in disbelief.
Cui Baisheng spread his hands helplessly.
“I swear on heaven and earth, Shi Tiange personally said she still doesn’t have any children. Though the name Ye Yu does sound pretty good. If she has a son in the future, maybe she’ll use that name.”
Truthfully, he was completely confused now.
If there was no such person as Ye Yu—
Then why was Cui Yanshui so desperate to marry him?
There was no logic to it at all.
Just as he was about to continue asking questions, he suddenly saw Cui Yanshui cover her forehead with one hand, her expression turning dazed and unstable.
No Ye Yu?
How could there be no Ye Yu?
Clearly, we were together when we were little. He even called me Fat Shui. Fat Shui... wait!
No.
Something was completely wrong!
Why did she have two sets of childhood memories?
One with Ye Yu.
One without Ye Yu.
Both sets of memories felt incomparably real, so real that it was impossible to distinguish what was true and what was false.
A violent aura suddenly spread out from Cui Yanshui’s body.
Seeing this, Cui Baisheng hurriedly stepped forward and used divine power to stabilize her condition.
This was bad.
Had his daughter cultivated herself into madness during closed-door cultivation?
Meanwhile, elsewhere in the Mortal Realm—
Qi Yuan had awakened even earlier than Cui Yanshui.
She discovered herself beneath the walls of a Mortal Kingdom.
The cold assaulted her without pause.
Her tiny body was already nearly frozen stiff.
Qi Yuan revealed a miserable smile.
So everything had been fake.
There had never been any Senior Ye Yu.
Nor had there ever been the Celestial World or the God Realm.
Everything had merely been the delusions she imagined before dying.
But if it had only been imagination, then why had it felt so real?
So real that it pierced into the bones and tore at the heart.
Qi Yuan curled up her body and looked at the snowflakes drifting down from the sky, her expression incomparably complicated.
Suddenly, a ball of light appeared before her.
Qi Yuan instantly froze in place.
Within that ball of light, she actually sensed her own former aura.
As though possessed by some invisible force, Qi Yuan slowly raised her hand and lightly touched the ball of light.
In an instant, the radiance seemed to come alive. It flowed along her fingertips and entered her body.
An overwhelming power suddenly erupted.
Qi Refining Realm.
Foundation Establishment Realm.
Golden Core Realm...
Qi Yuan’s cultivation began increasing at a completely insane rate, rising by an entire major realm every single breath.
At the same time, her body rapidly matured.
Inside the steamed bun shop not far away, the kindhearted shop owner saw the scene and immediately began shouting frantically.
“Wife! Come out quickly and look! An immortal!”
Not long afterward, Qi Yuan ascended in broad daylight and stepped into the Celestial World.
But this was not the end.
It was merely a transitional step.
After spending nine breaths raising her strength, Qi Yuan shattered the Void and entered the God Realm.
As she once again stepped onto this familiar land, her gaze became incomparably resolute.
Then she turned toward the north.
Senior... was it you helping me?
This time, why can’t I hear your voice anymore?
Qi Yuan clenched her fists tightly, sorrow appearing on her face.
However, the feeling quickly passed.
Because Qi Yuan firmly believed that Ye Yu could not possibly have fallen.
Since she herself could return to life, then he must also still be alive.
At the same time, elsewhere—
Ye Yu was carefully studying that mass of ancient violent aura.
Honestly speaking, this thing was absolutely a treasure.
Without it, Ling Tai would never have been able to step into the Divine Sovereign Realm, nor would he have survived his first battle against Hua Nongying.
But the problem was—
How exactly was he supposed to make it his own?
