Bibi Dong, the Reborn Person

Night. Moonlight flowed like water.

Spirit City.

Inside a low-key yet luxurious room, a soft, large bed stood in the center.

A layer of snowy-white gauze curtains shrouded the bed, which was covered with pristine white sheets and a purple velvet quilt.

Through the gauze, a girl with long, pale-purple hair could vaguely be seen lying on the bed. Her beautiful sleeping face was serene, and she had clearly already drifted into dreams.

But suddenly, for some unknown reason.

Pain and struggle appeared on the girl's exquisite, beautiful face. Her Jade Hand beneath the quilt clenched tightly as though she were suffering through a nightmare.

"No!!"

Not long after, accompanied by an unwilling cry, the girl abruptly opened her eyes and sat bolt upright in bed.

Her entire body heaved with violent breaths. Beads of sweat slid down her lovely face, soaking the purple velvet quilt beneath her.

"Where is this?"

Awakening from endless darkness, Bibi Dong stared blankly at the familiar yet unfamiliar surroundings and murmured to herself, her heart filled with disbelief.

Hadn't she already died?

Died beneath Tang San's Asura Demon Sword!

So how was she alive again?

And... where was this place? Why did it feel so familiar?

Wait!

As though she had thought of something, Bibi Dong's expression abruptly changed. She threw off the covers, rose, and quickly grabbed a mirror from the dressing table beside her, holding it before her face.

When she saw that familiar, pure, beautiful face in the mirror, Bibi Dong froze.

How could this be? She... she had returned to her youth?!

What was this?!

Had her future self been reborn, or had her present self merely dreamed a nightmare about the future?

No! This could not have been just a dream!

Thinking of everything she had experienced, Bibi Dong clenched her teeth and fiercely shook her head.

She refused to believe that everything in her memories was false!

Whether it was her teacher, Qian Xunji, who was worse than a beast, that hypocritical and selfish Yu Xiaogang, or her daughter Qian Renxue, toward whom she had carried a lifetime of guilt.

Everything had felt so utterly real!

Of course, what had left the deepest mark on her heart, what she could never forget and had regretted all her life—

Was still him, the one who had shielded her from a fatal attack and died in her arms. Before dying, he had stroked her face and told her that he had always liked her, that he did not want to be her little brother, only her man.

But if all of this was not a dream, then there was only one explanation: she had been reborn from the future!

And she had returned to before any of the tragedies had happened!

At that thought, Bibi Dong clenched her Jade Hand, her heart overflowing with excitement.

If that was truly the case, then that was wonderful!

In this life, she absolutely could not be as foolish as before!

That Yu Xiaogang was simply not worthy of her love!

She had given him so much, forgiving him and those around him time and time again.

But what had he given her in return?

He had marched to her doorstep as though it were only natural, demanding that she help the son of her enemy.

When she refused, merely saying that she had already acted against her enemy's son, he had put on a vicious expression and sworn to make her regret it.

Heh.

That man was so self-centered. He had never considered matters from her perspective, selfish and hypocritical to the core!

Yet she had only seen through him before her death!

In this life, she swore that she would take ruthless revenge on that selfish, self-serving, shameless hypocrite!

After venting the anger she felt toward Yu Xiaogang, Bibi Dong could not help thinking of him again—the one who had sacrificed himself and ultimately died in her arms, leaving her unable to forget him.

Su Mo, where are you now?

Bibi Dong thought wistfully, her gaze complicated.

Su Mo was a young man she had met while traveling the continent to ease her heart after being violated by her teacher, Qian Xunji, and giving birth to her daughter, Qian Renxue.

At first, she had only brought him back to Spirit Hall on a whim. Yet she had never expected him to awaken a powerful Martial Soul and reveal extraordinary talent.

For the sake of revenge, upon discovering Su Mo's remarkable talent, she had been overjoyed and taken him in as her younger brother.

But in truth, she had only wanted to use him, treating him as a tool for revenge!

Yet she had never expected Su Mo to quietly love her all along, or that he would ultimately be willing to die for her.

Only after Su Mo's death, after learning of his feelings for her, did Bibi Dong understand her own heart amid endless pain and regret.

How could people made of flesh and blood be without feelings!

Over countless years spent together day and night, she had actually developed feelings for this handsome, extraordinarily gifted younger brother who cared for and cherished her so deeply.

It was only that her heart had long been blinded by hatred.

Moreover, because of the violation by her teacher, Qian Xunji, she had closed off her heart.

She had treated Yu Xiaogang, her Unfulfilled desire, as the sole pure land in her heart, placing all her beautiful hopes and longings for love upon him. Yet she had ignored the one beside her who loved her, and the one she should have loved.

But after going through so much, she finally realized something: did she truly like Yu Xiaogang, who was ordinary-looking, poor with words, and only knew how to take from her without giving anything in return?

Was this really love, or was it merely because he was an Unfulfilled desire that she had excessively romanticized the love she once shared with Yu Xiaogang?

Unfortunately, she had realized it too late!

But now, it was not too late!

Thinking that she had been reborn and that Su Mo must still be alive, Bibi Dong immediately pulled herself together. She drew a deep breath and made up her mind.

In this life, she would not only take ruthless revenge on and torment that selfish, shameless Yu Xiaogang, but also find Su Mo as quickly as possible.

In her previous life, Su Mo had quietly cared for her, given everything for her, and died for her.

In this life, it was her turn to give herself sincerely for him!

But where was Su Mo now?

Thinking of Su Mo's whereabouts, Bibi Dong could not help feeling a headache coming on.

She remembered that Su Mo had once told her about his life before meeting her. Back then, he should have mentioned where he was now.

But too much time had passed, and she could not recall it at all for the moment.

Even so, Bibi Dong did not give up.

She believed that she would remember eventually. She simply needed some time!

Lying in bed and racking her brains over Su Mo's current location, Bibi Dong unknowingly fell asleep.

When she opened her eyes again, it was already morning.

Faint morning light streamed in through the window, spilling across the room and illuminating a pot of green pothos by the window until its leaves looked lush and vibrant with life.

"Is it morning already?"

After waking and seeing the scene outside, with the fiery-red rising sun just emerging, Bibi Dong sat up in bed. After silently sorting through her current memories, she got dressed, climbed out of bed, and left the room.

"Good morning, Her Ladyship, the Saintess!"

Outside the room, upon seeing Bibi Dong emerge, the Maids busying themselves in the courtyard all turned and respectfully bowed to her.

"Mm."

Bibi Dong merely nodded indifferently before leaving.

Why did Her Ladyship seem a little strange?

Watching Bibi Dong's departing figure, the Maids behind her could not help feeling puzzled. Bibi Dong seemed rather cold today, while Her Ladyship had always been kind and lively before.

Bibi Dong knew nothing of this.

But she did not care either.

Her future self had a vastly different personality from her current self, and she could not hide that. But who said a person's personality could never change at all?

She was merely acting a little colder at times.

In any case, it would be fine as long as she did not behave too differently from how she always had.

After getting up and washing, Bibi Dong finished breakfast. She wiped her mouth with an exquisite purple silk handkerchief, then prepared to cultivate—though in truth, she intended to continue recalling Su Mo's whereabouts.

Last night, she had already come up with a few clues. As long as she kept thinking for a while today and sorted through the memories in her mind, she should be able to remember soon.

"Clean this up. I am going to cultivate."

After instructing the Maids, Bibi Dong rose and prepared to leave.

But at that moment, a Maid walked in from outside. Standing some distance away, she respectfully said to Bibi Dong, "Your Ladyship, a guest has come to see you at the gate."
