The Rebirth of a Concubine's Daughter and Her Heartless Lover!

Fragments of fate, the edge of despair

Shen Yiyao stood in the endless void, darkness and light intertwined around her, like a collapsing world, rapidly rushing towards her. She felt every inch of her skin being eroded by this force, as if even her soul was gradually dissipating. Yet, her gaze remained firm, the unyielding resolve within her heart unwavering.

The blade of the Dragon Sword emanated a faint light, like a guiding light in the silent void. Shen Yiyao gripped the hilt tightly, her gaze fixed on the vortex ahead. She knew that Zhao Yuanming's conspiracy was only the tip of the iceberg; the huge shadow hidden behind it was her true enemy.

"You finally did it." Zhao Yuanming's voice came from all directions, but his figure always disappeared from her sight. His voice was full of a hint of amusement and disdain, as if he had foreseen all this from the beginning.

"You're right, I did it." Shen Yiyao replied calmly, the anger in her heart having cooled, replaced by a more calm strength. "But you're wrong. Do you think the ending of this game is destined to belong to you?"

"The ending?" Zhao Yuanming chuckled. "Shen Yiyao, do you really think you can reverse your fate? Everything you've seen is just a carefully planned scheme. You've never escaped my control. You're just a tool, a chess piece."

The corners of Shen Yiyao's mouth curled up slightly, and a cold light flashed in her eyes: "Really? Then you really overestimate yourself."

She scanned her surroundings. The darkness in the void gradually dissipated, and the light grew stronger and stronger, as if some unknown force were rising. Suddenly, she heard a whistling sound from all directions, like the sound of billions of stars falling. Shen Yiyao was startled and quickly alerted. She knew she was no longer in a simple time and space, but had entered a vast mystery woven by fate.

"Have you finally realized it?" Zhao Yuanming's voice rang out again, this time even clearer, as if it were right next to her ear. "This world never belonged to you from the beginning. All your choices, all your efforts, are just meaningless struggles. You are merely a slave to fate, and I am the master of this game."

"You're wrong." Shen Yiyao smiled coldly, "I've long seen through your so-called fate. Everyone walks on their own track, but that doesn't mean I'm destined to succumb to you. I may not be able to change the world, but at least I can choose my own path."

Her words were like a resounding slap in Zhao Yuanming's face. At this moment, Shen Yiyao was no longer the puppet controlled by fate. A unique glint shone in her eyes, a strength that had endured life and death, yet remained unyielding.

Suddenly, an extremely powerful suction surged from the center of the vortex, and Shen Yiyao felt herself being violently pulled deeper into the vortex. She immediately gripped the Dragon Sword tightly, her entire body tensing, ready to face the impending challenge. A sinister laugh echoed from within the vortex, a voice from an invisible being observing her struggle with cold eyes.

"You can't escape, Shen Yiyao." The voice was low and threatening. "Everything you have is destined to be devoured."

Shen Yiyao gritted her teeth, feeling the vortex's suction grow stronger, but she didn't stop. Instead, she charged forward with even greater resolve. Her sword energy, like an arrow piercing the air, pierced the center of the vortex. Following her attack, a deafening explosion echoed in the void, as if the center of the vortex had been violently impacted.

"Do you think you can destroy everything with just a broken sword?" Zhao Yuanming's voice echoed in the void again, with a hint of disdainful smile, "You are just an ant, how can you shake the foundation of destiny?"

"Maybe I can't shake the foundation of destiny, but I can choose my own path." Shen Yiyao's voice was firm and powerful. She gripped the dragon sword tightly with both hands and poured all her strength into the sword.

Sword Qi erupted instantly, a powerful surge of energy sweeping out, hurtling directly towards the center of the vortex. The overwhelming force seemed to tear everything apart. The void trembled violently at this moment, and the darkness of the vortex began to rapidly collapse. Shen Yiyao felt the violent collision between her own strength and the power of fate, but she remained unhesitating, swinging her sword with all her might.

At this moment, a dark force even more powerful suddenly surged from the depths of the vortex, sweeping over like a tide, pressing Shen Yiyao so hard that she could barely breathe. Her body was violently struck by the force, and the intense impact almost made her lose her balance. The blade of the Dragon Sword shook violently, as if it was about to fall out of her hand.

Shen Yiyao took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and began to sense the forces around her. She understood that this battle was a matter of life and death, but more importantly, she needed to transcend herself and break free from the constraints of her present situation. A new consciousness gradually emerged within her: a power that transcended fate and all obstacles.

"I am no longer your pawn." Shen Yiyao opened her eyes, a determined light flashing in them, "I will be my own master!"

She swung her sword fiercely, and the blade of the Dragon Sword emitted a dazzling light. Instantly, it unleashed a sword energy even more powerful than before, striking directly at the core of the vortex. The dark power at the center of the vortex was completely shattered by the sword energy at this moment. The entire void began to vibrate violently, as if the very laws of time and space had collapsed at this blow.

"This time, you are wrong, Zhao Yuanming." Shen Yiyao's voice was like a loud bell, echoing in the void.

With her decisive strike, the dark power of the vortex was completely shattered, and time and space began to regain balance. Shen Yiyao's figure was particularly dazzling in the light. However, she knew that the real challenge had just begun, and she had already embarked on a new journey.
