Luo Qianxue remembered that she once had the identity of Bai Xue.

Just as she was about to tell Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan about this—

"Buzz!"

"Buzz!"

"Buzz!"

Several ear-piercing whistling sounds came from high above.

Hearing the sound, everyone looked up and saw Qin Chuan and his companions, dressed in tattered clothes.

The City Lord has returned.

This means that the top-tier combatants have won the battle.

Lan Tianbai and the others were all quite surprised by this.

In their minds, Earth was always at a disadvantage, and that not having their cities breached in this great war would be considered a success.

As for winning this battle, that's something I don't even dare to dream of.

As soon as Qin Chuan and the others landed, they immediately headed towards Shen Qinghan.

Upon seeing this, Shen Qinghan instinctively shrank behind Lin Zichen.

Lin Zichen guessed something.

He guessed that Qin Chuan and the others must have noticed the Water God Palace that had appeared in the sky earlier, and saw it transform into a stream of light and enter Shen Qinghan's Heavenly Gate.

As expected.

As soon as Qin Chuan approached Shen Qinghan, he said in a slightly respectful voice, "Student Shen, do you have time to come back to the city with me and have a chat?"

Shen Qinghan looked at Lin Zichen as always, showing no opinion of her own.

Seeing that she was looking over, Lin Zichen answered for her, "I have time."

After saying that, he added, "Can I come along?"

"Certainly."

Qin Chuan gave an affirmative answer.

After arranging for the others to stay behind and clean up the battlefield.

Soon.

With a thought, Qin Chuan took Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan back to the city.

Other city leaders also wanted to join, but Qin Chuan flatly refused, telling them to stay and clean up the battlefield.

What does the City Lord want with Shen Qinghan?

If anyone's going to be looking for someone, it should be Lin Zichen.

What exactly happened?

After Qin Chuan left with Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan, Lan Tianbai and the others looked at each other, feeling very confused.

In the information they received, Lin Zichen was always the most outstanding one.

Shen Qinghan is also outstanding, but compared to the phenomenal Lin Zichen, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say she's just average.

Inside the spacious City Lord's office.

Qin Chuan sat at the tea table and poured a cup of hot tea for Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan, who were sitting opposite him.

After taking a small sip of tea, he looked at Shen Qinghan and asked:

"Student Shen, about an hour ago, I saw you floating above a huge palace. Could you tell me what happened?"

Shen Qinghan didn't rush to answer, and subconsciously looked at Lin Zichen beside her.

Lin Zichen felt that since everyone had witnessed it, there was no point in hiding it.

So he answered for Shen Qinghan:

"Neither she nor I are entirely clear on the specifics of what happened."

"But one thing is certain: her physique is very special. From a young age, her swimming ability far surpassed that of ordinary people, and her abilities related to water are also outstanding."

"I guess she must have received some kind of water-related inheritance."

"It's an innate inheritance."

"As for that palace, neither she nor I really know what's going on."

Lin Zichen told Qin Chuan everything he knew, hoping that this knowledgeable City Lord could answer his and Shen Qinghan's questions.

He and Shen Qinghan are both too young and don't understand many things, so they need to consult the old folks.

After hearing this, Qin Chuan stroked his chin with one hand and fell into deep thought.

Heritage related to water?

Or is it something you're born with?

Could it be... the legacy of the Water God?

Based on the Elder Tree's clone's earlier statement that "the Water God has been resurrected," and the three characters "Water God Palace" on the plaque above the palace gate.

Qin Chuan speculated that Shen Qinghan might have received the inheritance of the Water God.

However, he didn't know what kind of being the Water God was.

Having been stationed at the Origin Land for so many years, he had never heard the words "Water God" Origin Land.

After a moment of contemplation.

Qin Chuan thought for a moment and asked the two of them, "By the way, where did that Water God Palace and the water Water God Palace surrounded it go? How did they just disappear into thin air?"

Hearing this question, Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan were also puzzled.

The scene of the Water God Palace and the water surrounding it pouring into Shen Qinghan's Heavenly Gate Water God Palace incredibly spectacular and awe-inspiring.

Neither of them expected that Qin Chuan, whose Biological Rank was as high as Legendary Tier, would not have seen this scene.

Is it that no one can see it?

Or is it just Qin Chuan who can't see it?

Thinking of this, Lin Zichen hesitated, unsure whether he should reveal that the Water God Palace was inside Shen Qinghan's Heavenly Gate.

After a brief period of deep consideration.

Ultimately, Lin Zichen decided not to keep Shen Qinghan's secret.

He said to Qin Chuan, "That Water God Palace, and all the water surrounding Water God Palace, poured into her Heavenly Gate."

"The water that was poured in became part of her Consciousness Sea, making Consciousness Sea grow dozens or even hundreds of times larger."

"As for the Water God Palace, it floats quietly within the Consciousness Sea."

"The Water God Palace first collapsed into countless dazzling streams of light before pouring into her Heavenly Gate."

"..."

Such a massive palace, such a vast amount of water, all of it was poured into her Heavenly Gate?

How is that possible?

Creating Storage Space within the Consciousness Sea is something only Legendary Tier and Mythical Tier beings can accomplish.

But how could she, a mere Rare Tier creature, accomplish such a feat?

Was it the legacy of the Water God that enabled her to do these things?

Qin Chuan found this unbelievable and became increasingly curious about the so-called Water God.

Thinking it over, he looked at Shen Qinghan and said, "Next, I'm going to use my Mental Power to probe your Consciousness Sea see what's going on there. The process might be a little uncomfortable."

This is a notification, not an inquiry.

The moment the sound faded, Qin Chuan unleashed his Mental Power to invade Shen Qinghan's Consciousness Sea.

They completely disregarded whether Shen Qinghan agreed or not.

This is the domineering presence of a Legendary Tier powerhouse.

There's no need to care what the Rare Tier, weaklings think.

Lin Zichen sensed the Mental Power emanating from Qin Chuan and felt dissatisfied with his domineering behavior.

But there's nothing to be dissatisfied about.

Although Lin Zichen's strength far surpasses that of his peers and his evolutionary talent is unprecedented, he is still, in the end, a Rare Tier species.

The Rare Tier level is a giant on Earth.

But in front of Legendary Tier powerhouse like Qin Chuan, they might not even be as insignificant as ants.

They simply lacked the power to stop the other party's domineering behavior.

Just as Lin Zichen was feeling dissatisfied, Shen Qinghan was somewhat bewildered—

"Ah!"

A painful cry suddenly escaped from Qin Chuan's mouth.

Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan were both startled by the sudden shout and looked at Qin Chuan with puzzled expressions.

Then, to their horror, the two discovered that Qin Chuan, Legendary Tier expert, was now bleeding from all seven orifices with a contorted face and bulging blood vessels all over his body, indicating that he had suffered extremely serious physical injuries.

"Lin Zi, what happened to the City Lord?"

Shen Qinghan panicked a little. She had never seen such a scene before, and felt very uneasy. She subconsciously grabbed Lin Zichen's hand to reassure herself.

Lin Zichen also frowned, his expression grave.

Qin Chuan is Legendary Tier expert, and one of the best in his class. How could he suddenly and inexplicably suffer such severe physical injuries?

This is so bizarre it's frightening.

On the other side, Qin Chuan conjured a pill with wisps of purple aura out of thin air and swallowed it.

The elixir melted instantly upon entering his mouth, healing Qin Chuan's injuries at an incredible speed.

In the blink of an eye.

Qin Chuan, who was just bleeding from all seven orifices and pale-faced, has recovered completely, showing no trace of his injuries.

After pausing for a moment, Qin Chuan noticed the unease on Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan's faces and explained:

"The reason I was suddenly injured was because I was attacked by Shen's Consciousness Sea."

"To be more precise, it was attacked by the Water God Palace located in Shen's Consciousness Sea."

"That was an attack with extremely high mental intensity; even I couldn't withstand it."

"From this, it is clear that the Water God Palace in Shen's Consciousness Sea consciousness has a very powerful origin, and its owner must be Mythical Tier being."

"This Mythical Tier being should be the first two characters of the Water God Palace — the Water God."

Despite the lingering pain within his body, Qin Chuan analyzed these points logically and with evidence.

Lin Zichen was shocked to hear this. He hadn't expected that the Water God Palace in Shen Qinghan's Consciousness Sea was so powerful that it could easily injure a Legendary Tier expert.

Shen Qinghan was a little stunned after hearing this, and it took her a while to realize that she was excited.

The Water God Palace in my Consciousness Sea is so powerful, which means I'll definitely be powerful in the future too.

After all, this Water God Palace is most likely his own legacy.

The legacy from the "Water God".

"I'm not feeling well and need to rest alone for a while. If there's nothing else, you two can leave."

Qin Chuan felt that his soul had just suffered a considerable injury and he needed to rest and recover as soon as possible.

Otherwise, it could leave lasting consequences, causing one to lose the possibility of evolving into a Mythical Tier creature.

Although it was a low-probability event, he didn't dare to gamble on it.

If he loses the bet, he will never be able to achieve Mythical in his lifetime, a price he cannot afford.

Soon, Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan left.

After the two left, Qin Chuan immediately sealed off the entire office, took out all kinds of rare and precious herbs that could nourish the soul stored in his Consciousness Sea, and kept eating them, refining and absorbing them in his stomach.

I don't know how much time passed.

Qin Chuan finally felt better.

My mind feels much clearer now.

At this moment, he opened his eyes and tried hard to recall the entire process of the psychological attack he had just suffered, and the more he thought about it, the more horrified he became.

"That was really dangerous. Luckily, I got out quickly enough, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable."

"If it had been even a fraction slower, the damage to his soul would have taken several years to fully recover."

"What kind of being is this so-called Water God? How can something as simple as a dwelling place unleash such a powerful mental attack?"

"If I were to launch an attack, would I instantly perish?"

"No, I need to go and ask the Provincial Governor after my soul has recovered."

"Also, we need to pay special attention to Shen Qinghan, give her special training, and provide her with the greatest possible resources."

As Qin Chuan refined the rare and precious herbs in his stomach, he unconsciously murmured to himself.

On the way back to the dormitory.

Shen Qinghan pursed her lips and said, "The City Lord looks quite badly injured. I wonder if he's alright. It makes me feel really bad."

Lin Zichen scoffed, "What's there to feel bad about? This wasn't your fault. It was the City Lord who forced his way into probing your Consciousness Sea without your permission, which led to all of this."

These words carried a clear sense of dissatisfaction, specifically Qin Chuan's domineering dissatisfaction.

Shen Qinghan sensed his dissatisfaction, thought about it and felt it made a lot of sense, so the burden in her heart wasn't so heavy anymore.

After returning to the dormitory.

The first thing they did was go to the bathroom together to take a shower.

The bathrooms in the dormitories are relatively basic; you can only stand and wash yourself, unlike the dormitories in schools where you can take a bath.

The two quickly finished washing themselves and came out of the bathroom together.

Then, they both walked quickly toward the bed in perfect unison, skillfully deepening their intimacy.

After deepening their bond, the two embraced intimately, planning to take a nap to recharge.

But I hadn't been asleep for long when there was a knock on the door.

Lin Zichen got up and used his Mental Power to sense the outside of the door, only to find Luo Qianxue with white hair standing there, which surprised him.

He couldn't figure out why Luo Qianxue would knock on his dormitory door.

Are you looking for me?

Should we look for Hanhan?

What brings you here this time?

Shen Qinghan, sensing Luo Qianxue's arrival, immediately said to Lin Zichen with her clear, peach-blossom eyes, "Lin Zi, it's Senior Sister. I'll go open the door for her."

Lin Zichen: "Okay, go ahead."

Shen Qinghan put on her clothes and slippers, and walked briskly to open the door for Luo Qianxue.

"Creak--"

The dormitory door opened.

Immediately, what came into their view was Luo Qianxue, who was wearing a fitted martial arts uniform.

The martial arts uniform was loose and inconspicuous, but it was very eye-catching on Luo Qianxue.

This eye-catching appeal stemmed entirely from Luo Qianxue's beauty and sexiness, and had nothing to do with the loose-fitting martial arts uniform she was wearing.

"Um... Senior Sister, is there something you need from us?"

Shen Qinghan looked at Luo Qianxue outside the door and asked in a soft voice.

While asking this question, she took the opportunity to observe Luo Qianxue up close and discovered that her junior sister looked exactly like Bai Xue, just an adult version of Bai Xue.

"No need to call me senior sister, just call me by my name Luo Qianxue."

Luo Qianxue said calmly.

Although both of them were taught by Yuan Dongzhi and were fellow disciples, they didn't spend much time together and their relationship was not close.

In this situation, it would feel very awkward for the two of them to address each other as fellow disciples.

"Um... Qianxue, did you come all this way to see us because you have something important to discuss?"

Shen Qinghan felt that if someone with a withdrawn personality like Luo Qianxue took the initiative to come to her door, it must be because she had something urgent to deal with.

At the same time, Lin Zichen, who was slowly walking over from the bed, also felt the same way as Shen Qinghan that Luo Qianxue must have some urgent matter to deal with, which was why she took the initiative to come to his door.

However, Luo Qianxue didn't have anything urgent to attend to.

Under the watchful eyes of Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan, she said in a remarkably calm voice:

"I remember everything about that short but wonderful time in second grade. I remember having a name like Bai Xue, and how good I was with you two back then."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan both raised their eyebrows in unison, momentarily thinking they had misheard.

The white-haired girl in front of me actually remembered her time in second grade?

Was it that sudden?
