Forest, Part Two

"Shentu Yuan, thirty-one years old, betrayed his temporary team twenty years ago and obtained the First Soul Ring in a century."

"Seventeen years ago, he killed his friend and then Swallow the corpse of a precious Hundred-Year Soul Beast."

"He betrayed the temporary team fourteen years ago in exchange for obtaining the Second Soul Ring in a century."

"Two years ago, he betrayed the mercenary team and obtained the third Soul Ring of the millennium."

"The operation was carried out very discreetly, given the high number of casualties each year and the fact that the cause is impossible to verify."

A snow-white figure walked step by step, surrounded by frost and snow within a ten-meter radius, spreading out a cloud of white mist.

"There are a lot of scum among Soul Master, that's perfectly normal, but I just got angry."

A snow-white figure reached out her hand, and frost and snow mixed with white mist instantly reshaped into a giant blade, which smashed straight at the burly man.

A flash of white light, crystal grains spreading across the sky, the sharp blade returning to its frosty Mist, and the burly man's form completely vanished.

"Father? Father?"

The richly dressed boy looked anxious, his clothes covered in streaks of dust.

A layer of red crystalline dust quickly soaked into the fine clothes, and as soon as the young man stretched out his hand, the blood had already stained his clothes.

"Father!"

The elegantly dressed youth glanced back at her profile, his eyes fierce, but the snow-white figure vanished as well.

"Ying'er! Ying'er!"

On the left side of the entrance, a student's expression was ferocious. "Ying'er has kept quiet all this time. I used to hate Ying'er, hate that Ying'er willingly fell into depravity."

"You bastard! You beast!"

To the right of the entrance, a trainee stood frozen, his expression frozen. "Two years ago... the Golden Edge Mercenary Corps... my father, my mother..."

The young man in brocade immediately retreated, his forehead beaded with cold sweat.

"You bastard! I'll kill you!"

"Brother, wait! The blood feud between our parents is irreconcilable. Let me go first."

"Fourteen years ago, in a temporary team, I remember my uncle..."

A snow-white figure stepped out of the doorway, walked towards the side of the young man in brocade robes, and entered the bustling street.

Whether they were ordinary students, young men in fine clothes, commoners on the street, or first or second-level Soul Master, they all acted entirely on their own, completely ignoring the snow-white figure.

She quickly stepped out of the city gate, and the snow-white figure summoned an elven girl, who displayed four Soul Rings.

Compared to ordinary Soul Master, the four Soul Rings of the snow-white figure had very unique colors.

Magnificent pink, noble purple, ink-black, and crimson cinnabar.

An invisible Barrier enveloped the snow-white figure, rising foot by foot into the air before flashing away at high speed into the distance.

Passing through forests, past wheat fields, past hills, until reaching a stream in the woods, a snow-white figure sat down directly.

The babbling brook reflects her stunning beauty, her dark blue eyes, and her complex gaze.

The Bai Cai looked at her, then quickly looked away.

Many Soul Bone come with their own beauty enhancements, yet they themselves are practically reborn.

Perhaps due to her domineering bloodline, or perhaps due to her human form, Snow Empress's influence far exceeded that of Bai Cai.

Snow Empress is amazing, she's beautiful, but I'm similar to Snow Empress, Bai Cai.

Fortunately, I am still considered a boy.

The unfortunate thing is that I was classified as a boy.

"I can't go back."

Bai Cai looked at the elven girl, "Father and Mother must be complete strangers."

I've changed a lot too.

The elven girl sat down and gently embraced the Bai Cai.

[In the past, you held me; now, I hold you.]

Bai Cai leaned against the elfin girl's rounded, snowy shoulder, saying, "I have my own name, and you should have your own name too."

[Kirlia?]

"Kirlia doesn't count as a name."

What qualifies as a name?

"Dianya, Qingxue, Xing."

[Kirlia.]

"No, no."

You choose.

"Kirlia?"

"The Supreme Order of Holy Flowers?"

"Enterprise?"

"Seele?"

[Angry.]

"Lilith."

Bai Cai's tone was much more cheerful as she said, "Bai Lilith."

[Thanks.]

No, thank you.

Her stunning beauty was reflected in the babbling brook. "Let's go back."

The village was deserted, the fields were overgrown with weeds, and the wooden houses were covered in a layer of dust.

The Bai Cai brought back a great fortune; the villagers had already moved elsewhere, and the parents and relatives even ran a manor.

This kind of village-wide migration took more than a year, and unless one could turn back time, even Titled Douluo wouldn't be able to catch up.

After spending the night in the village, as the morning sun began to shine, Bai Cai had already headed to the academy.

Until noon, the sunlight shone brightly.

High in the sky, a white figure descended back to the academy and looked around.

Inside the Sea God Pavilion on Sea God Island, a group of elders immediately appeared and surrounded the white figure.

The white-clad figure turned around, "Xuan Zi, Elder Lin, Elder Song, Elder Zhuang..."

"Who are you?"

An old man asked, "What are you doing here at Shrek?"

"..."

The white-clad figure's expression was complex, "..."

The disheveled old man stepped forward, quickly checking his mental frequency, but his expression changed repeatedly. "Bai Cai?"

"Yes..."

"Grass!"

The disheveled old man's eyes widened. "They're all pretending to be boys, coming here one by one for blind dates."

"I'm a boy."

Bai Cai turned her gaze away, "Appearance is a matter of many factors, firstly..."

I don't believe it.

The disheveled old man held out a silver mirror. "Take a look at yourself?"

Completely ignoring her snow-white reflection in the mirror, Bai Cai repeated, "Appearance is a matter of many factors, firstly..."

"So be it, so be it."

The disheveled old man looked quite weary. "I believe you, but living in the boys' dormitory would be a bad influence."

"Teachers' dormitories are rarely repaired, the inner courtyard dormitories are basically full, special treatment is not possible, and accidents are likely to occur if students stay off-campus."

The disheveled old man quickly spoke up, "Dianya, an exchange student from the Skywater Academy, you two can stay together."

An old woman warned, "Xuan Zi, Dianya's dormitory..."

"Many students dropped out or took leave of absence; I remember those floors were very empty."

The disheveled old man made a decisive statement, "Bai Cai, let's go back first. We need to discuss something."

The Bai Cai looked towards the dormitory, enveloped by an invisible Barrier, and disappeared like a shooting star.

"My spiritual growth has been immense."

The disheveled old man answered himself, "My Soul Power has also increased significantly, far exceeding my apparent cultivation level."

"Is the issue of appearance related to the Belun incident?"

The old man asked, "The Head Soul Bone Torso Soul Bone can indeed affect appearance."

"More than."

The old woman replied, "It's not just an influence, it's a rebirth."

Do you remember?

The disheveled old man recalled, "His Second Martial Soul, the Heavenly Snow Woman, was almost exactly the same."

The old woman remarked, "The difference in eye color makes her face appear much softer."

The disheveled old man looked at the white figure, "Fully awakened?"

Everywhere is deserted.

Repairs are underway everywhere.

Work sheds everywhere.

As the Bai Cai passed by a dilapidated building, memories flashed through its mind.

[The future is scarce.]

The future is the past, and the past is the future.

[This is the end of Act One.]

The Bai Cai vaguely understood something.

If they had returned to the academy back then, the outcome would have been far more disastrous.

But.

"Xiao Xiao, Dianya..."

"No..."

The elven girl revealed her form, surrounded by four Soul Rings, with the First Soul Ring rapidly shining.

Future Sight!
