Reborn as a tree, the peerless god is obsessed

Chapter 458 Meeting Ling Xue

Yaolin Secret Garden.

Xue Yao came to the Sword Valley and stared deeply at the cave where the Tianxuan Sword was once placed. She was silent for a long time.

She was dressed in a pure white dress, standing in the valley covered with lush green grass. The breeze blew gently, like a hibiscus in full bloom in the valley.

Memories flooded back like a tide. This was where she had sealed the Tianxuan Sword. Back then, after personally forging the Tianxuan Sword, she was incredibly excited.

She remembered how she had meticulously crafted this divine sword, pouring all her effort into every hammering and refining.

However, after the excitement, an inexplicable premonition came over me.

This sword will have another owner.

The feeling of loss was inevitable. After all, her satisfaction with this sword was almost comparable to that of her natal sword, the Ice Soul Sword.

But fate always has unexpected plans, so she can only seal the Tianxuan Sword here and wait for its true master.

But I didn't expect that the way Tianxuan Sword recognized its master would be so strange.

The appearance of the man in black and wearing a golden mask caught her off guard.

It was not until the sword fell into his hands and the Tianxuan Sword showed an attitude of trying to please its master that she had to accept this fact.

The man was cool and unrestrained. After obtaining the Tianxuan Sword, his deep eyes revealed a look of pride. It was his first time entering the Yaolin Secret Garden, and also the first time someone had entered the Secret Garden without her permission.

Xueyao was troubled. She tried many ways, but ultimately could not stop him from breaking in again. As a result, he broke in twice more after that.

Thinking of all that had happened here in the past, Xueyao felt a mixture of emotions. She slowly walked to the cave entrance and reached out to touch the wall, as if she could sense the lingering energy of the Tianxuan Sword.

However, at this moment, a pair of handsome eyes were secretly watching her every move.

Xue Yao seemed to sense something and looked back suddenly, but she only saw a lush forest and nothing unusual.

She frowned slightly, feeling an inexplicable unease welling up in her heart. Just as she was about to turn around and leave, a white shadow flashed by.

"Who?" Xue Yao cried out, drew out the Bingpo Sword and looked around vigilantly.

Suddenly, a man in white slowly walked out from behind a big tree, crossed his arms, smiled and said jokingly: "Yao'er, long time no see."

Yaoer?

This name startled her.

Such an intimate name, except for her mother in her previous life, no one else had ever called her that. In fact, she did not allow anyone other than her mother to call her that.

A cold light flashed in Xueyao's eyes. "Who are you? How dare you address me as a fairy like that?"

This was the first time she had ever called herself "Fairy." However, now that she was in heaven, others often addressed her like that, so why couldn't she just give it a try?

The white-clothed man smiled faintly, "Yao'er, have you forgotten me so quickly? It seems that reincarnation is really interesting."

Reincarnation? Does this person know about his past life?

Xue Yao was shocked, but she remained expressionless. "Hmph, stop talking nonsense. If you don't tell me your identity clearly, don't blame me for being rude!"

Well, as the owner of Yaolin Secret Garden, it would be more appropriate for her to call herself "this Garden Master". "This Immortal" still felt too awkward.

The man in white sighed softly and took a few steps forward. "Yao'er, I am Ling Ziqian. Our fate has not yet ended. I have been searching for you for a long time before I finally found you."

When Xueyao heard the name, many memories flashed through her mind, but she was still unsure. "Even if what you said is true, so what? The past life is over, and we have no connection in this life anymore."

Ling Ziqian's eyes turned sad. "Yao'er, the friendship between you and me cannot be severed just like that. Back then, you sacrificed yourself for the sake of the people of the world. I have been searching for a way to bring you back to life. I have finally waited until today, and you..."

How can you be so heartless?

He didn't dare say the rest of the words, fearing that he might accidentally anger her and end up losing more than he gained. After all, it had taken him 20,000 years to finally find the right number.

Xue Yao was slightly stunned, and the Bingpo Sword in her hand dropped a little. She didn't know how to respond.

But then Ling Ziqian said, "Yao'er, thank you for saving me. Do you still remember Plum Blossom Mountain in the human world?"

A complex emotion surged in Xue Yao's heart. Of course she remembered that place. She remembered that day when she had just come out of Biyun Cave and learned that Yun Duoduo was captured by Hong Fenger. She immediately rushed into Fenghua Mountain to rescue her.

While rescuing Yun Duoduo, he also rescued a young man in white.

Oh, right, the young man in white.

"You, you, you are really the young man in white?" Xue Yao's eyes widened in surprise, she couldn't believe it.

At that time, the young man in white he rescued was covered in blood and was so thin that his bones were visible.

The man in white before her was sturdy and strong. At first glance, she couldn't really see the two of them as one person. However, those eyes...

Ling Ziqian smiled bitterly and said, "That's right. Thanks to Yao'er's rescue, I was able to survive. After that, I recovered and have been keeping an eye on Yao'er's whereabouts."

Xueyao's expression softened a bit. "I see. But even so, the past is gone."

Ling Ziqian said anxiously, "Yao'er, my feelings for you have never changed. When you saved me, I secretly vowed to protect you. Do you know that when I heard that you had passed away, I was almost crazy?"

Xueyao's heart was filled with ripples, but she remained firm: "That's all in the past."

Ling Ziqian took a step closer and whispered, "Yao'er, do you really not want to know what happened back then and the secrets behind it? About your life experience and why you sacrificed yourself to save the world?"

Xue Yao was a little confused. When had she sacrificed herself to save the world in her previous life? In this life, the things she had done in the human world could be considered saving the world, but that couldn't be considered sacrificing herself.

However, something moved her heart, and she looked up at him, "What do you know?"

Ling Ziqian smiled slightly, "As long as you are willing to accept me again, I will tell you everything."

Her gaze softened, and the Ice Soul Sword in her hand slowly sheathed. She took a deep breath, trying to calm the turmoil in her heart. "Ling Ziqian, why are you here?"

Ling Ziqian's eyes flashed with determination, "Because I know that no matter in this life or the past, you are the one destined for me. I came here to protect you and to complete our unfinished love."

What unfinished love?

Xue Yao's heart remained unmoved, but her face remained calm. "Protect me? Do you know who I am? I'm the owner of Yaolin Secret Garden. Why do I need your protection?"

Ling Ziqian smiled and said, "I know you are powerful, but in this heavenly realm, there are always some things that even you cannot predict. I am willing to be your strength and fight alongside you."

Xue Yao was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke, "You know, my life is not simple. I bear the fate of the entire Yaolin Secret Garden, as well as countless secrets and responsibilities."

Ling Ziqian nodded. "I understand. I also have my responsibilities and mission. We can face it together and shoulder it together."

Xue Yao looked at him, a complex light flashing in her eyes. She knew that the appearance of this man would bring about huge changes in her life. But she also understood that some things might really be God's will.
