Ye Xishui: My Teacher Is Invincible!

Ye Xishui lifted her face, a hint of thoughtfulness on her delicate features.

"If I went to the Evil Demon Forest now, I should still be able to kill it again."

"A Soul Bone from a Seven-Hundred-and-Ninety-Thousand-Year Soul Beast is certainly worth taking."

"It's just that it's already received a reward from the Golden Rankings. Its strength must have improved quite a bit."

As she spoke, her elegant dress fell along the curves of her waist and hips.

Her long legs crossed beneath the table, the pale instep of one foot showing at the edge of her skirt.

Ye Xishui raised her eyes to Long Yuan.

"Teacher, do you think I can kill it?"

"You can."

Long Yuan did not hesitate.

"After receiving the Tribulation-Transcending Pill, the Evil-Eyed Tyrant will indeed be able to survive the Eight-Hundred-Thousand-Year Thunder Tribulation."

"But it hasn't fully absorbed the reward yet. Its strength hasn't reached its peak."

"Even if it masters the Thousand-Eyed Golden Light, it can't be your match."

Ye Xishui's eyes brightened.

"Then I'll make a trip to the Evil Demon Forest."

"I'll take its Soul Bone first, then have a look at what the Thousand-Eyed Golden Light actually looks like."

Long Yuan raised his wine cup and took a sip.

"There's no need for now."

Ye Xishui stopped.

"Do you have other plans, Teacher?"

"Yes."

Long Yuan set down his cup.

"I'm going to see Gu Yuena."

The light in Ye Xishui's eyes stilled for a moment.

She looked at the man before her, her relaxed expression gradually fading.

"You're going to see your wife, Master?"

"She doesn't know me yet."

Long Yuan nodded.

"Ten thousand years ago, Gu Yuena's injuries had not yet healed, and she had not met me."

"It's a good chance to go see her."

Ye Xishui's slender hand, holding her wine cup, froze in midair.

She had long known that Long Yuan and Gu Yuena were husband and wife.

But hearing Long Yuan say with his own mouth that he was going to see Gu Yuena still stirred a twinge of jealousy in her heart.

Long Yuan had just met Qian Renxue in this tavern.

Now he was going to see Gu Yuena from ten thousand years ago.

Only she, despite being by Long Yuan's side, still had to call him Master.

"Teacher, you haven't even seen Gu Yuena, and you're already thinking of her."

Ye Xishui lowered her gaze to the wine in her cup.

"I've stayed with you for so many years, yet I've never seen you in such a hurry for me."

Long Yuan looked at her.

"Are you jealous?"

Ye Xishui did not deny it.

She raised a slender hand and tucked the hair falling beside her face behind her ear.

In the golden light, her mature, alluring features looked even more captivating.

"I just think you're too good to Gu Yuena, Brother Long."

"She doesn't even know you yet."

"But you're already preparing a gift for her."

"There's one for you too."

Long Yuan spoke calmly.

Ye Xishui lifted her eyes.

"What do I get?"

"I'm seeing her first because her injuries need treatment."

"Besides, you all came to this era with me. Naturally, none of you will go without."

Ye Xishui watched him for a moment.

Her gaze rested on Long Yuan's calm face, and the jealousy in her heart slowly faded.

"What are you planning to give Gu Yuena, Master?"

Long Yuan thought for a moment.

"The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well."

Ye Xishui's expression stirred.

"You mean the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well in the Sunset Forest?"

"There are many immortal herbs there."

Long Yuan nodded.

"In this era, none of the immortal herbs in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well have been taken yet."

"I plan to gather a batch first."

"I'll leave some for the Holy Spirit Cult and give the rest to Gu Yuena."

Ye Xishui set down her cup, surprise filling her eyes.

"The immortal herbs are still there?"

"Those treasures can change a Soul Master's aptitude."

Long Yuan looked at her.

"That's why we need to go now."

"Once others discover their value, it'll be too late."

Ye Xishui considered this for a moment.

"To think this era still has so many good things."

"It's a pity Soul Tools haven't developed yet, and the Soul Core system doesn't exist."

She turned to look out the window.

People came and went along the street. Most Soul Masters wore simple Spirit Hall badges.

"The way Soul Masters cultivate here lags far behind our era."

"No Soul Tools, no Soul Cores, and their combat strength is nowhere near what it will be ten thousand years from now."

"But this era has one advantage."

Long Yuan looked at her.

"There are plenty of godhoods."

Ye Xishui's eyes lit up.

"Godhoods?"

Long Yuan nodded gently.

"The Divine Realm still exists, and there are quite a few Godhood Inheritances on the continent."

"The inheritances of the Angel God, the Sea God, the Rakshasa God, and other deities have not yet been completely severed."

"But ten thousand years from now, godhoods have all but vanished."

"In the end, even Huo Yuhao had to rely on Tang San's arrangements to become a god."

Ye Xishui immediately sat up straight.

The movement pulled her red dress taut, accentuating her graceful figure.

She had been stuck at Level 99 for years.

Her Soul Power, Spiritual Power, and body had all reached their limits.

What had truly kept her from becoming a god was never a lack of talent, but the lack of a suitable godhood.

Now that she had heard how many godhoods existed in this era, an idea naturally took root in her heart.

"Teacher, do you mean I have a chance to inherit a godhood now too?"

"Of course."

Long Yuan said:

"With your strength, few people in this era can stand against you."

"Soul Tools haven't appeared yet, and the Soul Core system hasn't been perfected."

"So-called Limit Douluo hold little advantage over you."

Ye Xishui's breathing quickened.

She looked up at the Golden Rankings in the firmament.

Bibi Dong was Level 98, yet she ranked only twelfth.

Tang Chen was Level 99 and wielded the Asura God Sword, yet he ranked only eleventh.

The Snow Empress and the Evil-Eyed Tyrant had cultivated for hundreds of thousands of years, yet they ranked tenth and ninth.

Ten thousand years ago, these people had indeed stood at the summit of the continent.

But in her eyes, that was all.

Ye Xishui slowly extended a slender hand.

A wisp of dark-red Soul Power flowed between her fingers, its aura deep and powerful.

"The strong in this era really are much weaker than those in ours."

"Tang San, Ma Hongjun, and the others are still students at Soul Master Academies."

"They haven't even touched the threshold of godhood."

"If I compete for a godhood, what can they possibly use to challenge me?"

Long Yuan looked at her.

"Which godhood do you want to inherit?"

Ye Xishui fell silent for a moment.

"I haven't decided yet."

She raised her eyes to Long Yuan, her fair face earnest.

"But I won't give up the chance to become a god again."

"Before, without a godhood, I could only remain at Level 99."

"Now that godhood is right before me, of course I have to try."

Long Yuan picked up the wine jug and filled her cup.

"Godhood isn't so simple."

"To inherit one, you must pass a god's trials and win that deity's approval."

"If you want a shortcut, you can start by looking for a suitable inheritance."

Ye Xishui accepted the cup.

Her fingertips brushed lightly against Long Yuan's.

"I understand."

"But with you here, Brother Long, I'm not worried."

Long Yuan looked at her.

"You want me to help you?"

Ye Xishui took a sip of wine.

Wine glistened on her red lips, making them look even more vivid.

"I've waited all these years. Can't I ask my teacher to help me just once?"

"If you're willing to act, what godhood could you not obtain?"
