Long River Eternity

Upon hearing this, Liu Xianxian's delicate body trembled slightly, and then she laughed dryly: "Teacher Yang, what are you talking about? I am Xianxian, not Ye Tingxue."

"I advise you not to challenge the sixth sense of an old woman who has lived for more than 200 million years." Yang Nian raised the corner of his mouth and said slowly.

Liu Xianxian remained silent, just staring at Yang Nian. After a few seconds of silence, she finally let out a long sigh, relaxed, leaned back in her chair, and changed into a comfortable posture. She smiled bitterly and said, "Are you bullying me because I have a short life?"

"You've reaped what you sowed." Yang Nian responded mercilessly.

"I lost my life for Yang An, why did I have to suffer the consequences?" Liu Xianxian said dissatisfiedly.

"Why else do you think you can sit here and talk to me so calmly?" Yang Nian retorted.

"Hmph, how did you find out?" Liu Xianxian snorted and stopped arguing, full of curiosity.

"Do you really think I have lived in vain all these years? Can't I see so many flaws?" Yang Nian said.

"Really? Tell me about it?" Liu Xianxian asked persistently.

"It's just like the past. You won't cry until you see the coffin." Yang Nian said lightly.

Liu Xianxian snorted in dissatisfaction, without refuting or saying anything.

Yang Nian then continued, "When I first saw you after returning, I sensed something was wrong. Although you disguised yourself very well, Xianxian's eyes are not as complicated as yours.

Furthermore, Wuxiang had come all this way to kidnap you, yet Lin Ding was able to effortlessly rescue you right under Jingyan's nose. The only possibility is that someone had instructed Jingyan not to take action, and the only person who could command Jingyan was probably Xiangliu, and the only person who could make Xiangliu obey was Ye Tingxue.

"Hmph, if Zhan Tianqiong hadn't shown up at the last moment, why would Jing Yan have needed to come forward?" Liu Xianxian said with an unhappy look on her face.

"What's going on with you now? Awakening? Possessing another body? Reincarnation?" Yang Nian was full of doubts.

Liu Xianxian pondered for a moment, revealing a cynical expression as she said, "Awakening, not really. I was truly dead back then, not in a coma. Taking over another's body is out of the question. I'm still Liu Xianxian, but I've recovered my memories, so I guess that should be considered a reincarnation."

"I never thought that what Houtu failed to achieve was accomplished by you. You can actually reincarnate." Yang Nian sighed.

"As a celestial soul body, it is not difficult to reincarnate yourself. However, Second Senior Sister has broad ambitions. Not only does she want Haotian to reincarnate, she also wants to create the underworld and reincarnation. It is understandable that she ultimately failed." Ye Tingxue said lightly.

"You killed Nuwa, and you still call Houtu your second senior sister?" Yang Nian sneered.

"If I say that none of that was my doing, would you believe me?" Liu Xianxian suddenly put away her cynical smile. Her voice was low and firm, and her eyes were burning as she looked directly at Yang Nian. Her eyes were filled with a complex mixture of emotions, a mixture of uneasiness and a hint of expectation.

Yang Nian's expression was solemn, with an unpredictable emotion flickering in her eyes. She was silent for a long time, as if she was thinking about something.

"Since you died once while blocking a fatal blow for Xiao An, I would like to give you a chance to explain." Yang Nian finally spoke, his voice was gentle, but also mixed with a hint of scrutiny.

Liu Xianxian was slightly startled, then slowly said, "This story begins with the battle of the Ten Suns. Before the battle with the Golden Crow, Lin Ding and I once fought a fierce battle with the Ghost Chariot in Kangen City. At that time, the situation was critical, and I absorbed many souls from the Netherworld Divine Land into my soul body to resist the Ghost Chariot's God-Slaying Banner.

Although I won at that time, the resentment of a large number of dead souls condensed into a soul of extreme resentment in my soul body, and then it controlled my body for a period of time."

At this time, Yang Nian interrupted, "We all know this. That bloody little figure that Master extracted from your body back then must be the extremely resentful soul you mentioned, right? Wasn't that destroyed by Master?"

Liu Xianxian smiled bitterly and said, "I thought so too, but I never imagined that it left a trace of its soul in my heavenly soul and has been recuperating in my body for a hundred years.

Until that day, when Master suddenly appeared and asked me to go out and meet her, it suddenly erupted, taking control of my body. Taking advantage of Master's unpreparedness, it killed her and absorbed some of her cultivation and the power of the laws."

"That resentful soul can actually devour and absorb the laws of others?! No wonder you were able to use the laws of life and destruction later. I never thought that the resentful soul had the ability to absorb the laws of others." Yang Nian said in surprise.

"That's right. It's because it was originally formed through the mutual devouring and fusion of the resentful souls of the dead, so it has the power of devouring. This is why it later wanted to kill Yang An, because it wanted to devour Yang An's law of chaos. Not only Yang An, it also wanted to devour the laws of other strong people." Liu Xianxian said in a deep voice.

"So, all your actions afterwards were controlled by that vengeful spirit? And in the end, it was you who sacrificed your life to block the fatal blow for Xiao An, right?" Yang Nian asked.

"Most of the things that happened afterwards were caused by it. However, I can occasionally regain some consciousness and take back control of my body, but these situations are very rare.

In the final battle, the vengeful spirit originally wanted to use the Soul-Calming Banner to protect the key parts, pretending to defend Yang An from the attack. When Yang An stepped forward to check the situation, it unexpectedly killed Yang An and devoured the Law of Chaos.

But I had long since had enough of its actions, and that was my only chance to get rid of it. So at the critical moment, I controlled the Requiem Banner and dealt it a truly fatal blow, ultimately destroying it along with me."

Liu Xianxian's eyes were now filled with hatred, finally revealing the truth that had been buried for 200 million years. She breathed a sigh of relief, calmed down, and stared at Yang Nian intently, waiting for his response.

After listening to Liu Xianxian's statement, Yang Nian looked at Liu Xianxian with complicated eyes, remaining silent, trying to judge from her expression whether what she said was true.

At this moment, even Yang Nian herself didn't understand what she wanted to see from Liu Xianxian's eyes.

She hoped to see deception, so that she could kill Liu Xianxian without hesitation, just because she had rebelled against the Dao Court and caused the deaths of many people in the Dao Court.

But she also longed to see the truth, because that would mean that the kind and innocent Ye Tingxue had never changed from beginning to end, and had been reborn in front of her again after billions of years.

Yang Nian's heart was in turmoil, but in the end, all the contradictions turned into a deep sigh, and then he said in a deep voice: "No matter what, you saved Xiao An with your life once, so I can choose to trust you.

But too many people died because of you back then. Even because of you, Nüba's Yinming Death Fire got out of control again, forcing Hao Fei to seal himself and Nüba together to suppress her death fire. It has been sealed for more than 200 million years. He hates you to the bone.

When everyone breaks the seal and comes out, I can't guarantee that they will believe you. I can only do my best to keep this secret for you, and the rest depends on your own performance."

Hearing this, Liu Xianxian smiled faintly, with gratitude and joy in her eyes: "It is enough that you are willing to believe me. You and Yang An are the most important people to me in this world."

"This is the last question, and I hope you can answer me truthfully." Yang Nian said solemnly.

"You said."

"Are you Liu Xianxian or Ye Tingxue now?"
