Three years later.
Song Wen learned from Shi Min that the Shi Family had finally chosen a body for Shi Sanniang to possess, and she had begun making preparations.
Half a month later, Song Wen heard that Shi Sanniang had successfully taken possession of her new body.
Another year passed in the blink of an eye.
That day, someone knocked on Song Wen's courtyard gate again.
This time, however, it was not Shi Min, but Shi Sanniang.
Only now, Shi Sanniang no longer looked like the decrepit old woman she had once been. She was a beautiful woman with striking features and a graceful figure.
Her cultivation, however, was no longer at the late Tribulation Transcendence stage. She now had only the strength of the early Tribulation Transcendence stage.
Although he had already recognized Shi Sanniang, Song Wen still wore a look of astonishment and uncertainty when he opened the gate and saw that lovely face.
"You... you're Shi Sanniang!"
Shi Sanniang smiled radiantly, clearly delighted with her current body.
"Indeed I am."
Song Wen promptly wiped the astonishment from his face.
"Congratulations on successfully taking possession of your new body, fellow Daoist."
Shi Sanniang said, "I must thank you for coming to my aid back then. Otherwise, my body and soul would likely have been destroyed long ago. How could I possibly be here today?"
"This was your good fortune, fellow Daoist, and the result of everyone in the Shi Family working together with one heart. I dare not claim the credit."
With that, Song Wen hurriedly stepped aside to clear the courtyard entrance, his face full of apology.
"I was so excited that I forgot to invite you inside. Forgive my poor hospitality, fellow Daoist!"
"It's quite all right!" Shi Sanniang remained where she stood, making no move
