She became a god

An invisible force surrounded Ye Qingzhou's soul, causing her spiritual meridians to expand several times over.

Abundant spiritual energy circulated within Ye Qingzhou's body, finally converging at his dantian, nourishing the already nearly formed, lustrous golden core to become even more radiant and clear, without a trace of impurity, and extremely rich.

The wind and water elemental energies intertwined and lingered on it, while the wood elemental energy was also contained within, but the golden core had not yet taken shape.

It resembles a playful little girl, first transforming into a pot, then displaying numerous patterns, eventually becoming a Bagua (Eight Trigrams) plate.

Runes overflowed from the Bagua plate, gradually transforming into the shape of raindrops.

Then it transformed into clouds, drifting and drifting, until it took the shape of a little panda.

The little panda yawned, stretched, and gradually formed a ball shape with its limbs outstretched.

The three spiritual energies of wind, water, and wood continuously merged within a certain space, undergoing various evolutions. After countless years, the golden elixir was finally formed.

When Ye Qingzhou opened his eyes again, he found himself back in the depths of the sea, and once again saw the goddess of wind and rain—Zhao Ji.

Zhao Ji looked at her with a smile, "You have passed my first test, and you have already begun to qualify for the love of the gods."

As soon as the Golden Elixir was established, Lady Zhaoji personally delivered some great news.

The combination of "divine assessment" and "divine love" was like a windfall, leaving Ye Qingzhou dizzy. She asked in a trembling voice.

Are you testing me to become a god?

"Your character is excellent, making you a suitable candidate for the God of Wind and Rain."

After receiving an affirmative answer, Ye Qingzhou felt even more dizzy, as if he were floating on air.

She still retained a last shred of vigilance. "Although Ye Shi Qingzhou is confident in his talent, there are countless geniuses in the Nine Provinces and Four Seas. I do not believe I can overpower the previous and the next generation. May I ask what Your Highness Zhaoji sees in me?"

"Ye Qingzhou, this is what you earned yourself."

You are embarking on a new path, and I hope you succeed.

No one can defy the arrangements of fate, but I wish you freedom.

Lady Zhaoji's words have a hidden meaning!

Ye Qingzhou wanted to ask more, but then he heard Zhaoji laugh.

"This is merely an avatar of mine. My mission is complete, and there is no need for me to remain here any longer."

In the name of the God of Wind and Rain, I bless you and bestow upon you a trace of the divine power of wind and rain, so that you may never be defeated in the face of storms and trials to come.

Go back! Go back to where you belong!

The next time we meet will be when you participate in the second stage of the assessment.

With that, she waved her hand, and Ye Qingzhou felt as if he had been pushed far away by a strong wind.

When Ye Qingzhou finally landed, he found himself in a cemetery.

Take a closer look!

Yo ho!

Isn't this Shui Lian's grave?

The soil is quite fresh.

There is a pear blossom with dew on it in front of the grave.

It doesn't seem like Qi Zhanying put it there.

It's more like...

"You're not dead?"

Ye Qingzhou turned around, and sure enough, it was her.

"Sister, I haven't seen you yet, and I can't bear to die. Even if I really die, I want to wait for you to prepare my body and collect my remains."

"Stop being so glib." Wen Xichun stood with her sword in her arms. She had changed her expression again, and if it weren't for her distinctively cold aura, Ye Qingzhou wouldn't have recognized her.

"Did my sister come to see me?"

【011, bind me to Wenxi Spring!】

[Ding! The Simp System has been activated, binding Wen Xichun from "The Legend of Zhu Yan" as the target of your pursuit. The target's current favorability towards the host is 80.]

80?

Although Sister Chun didn't reply to me, I know she cares about me.

Wenxi Spring: ? ? ?

All around was quiet and deserted. As the sun rose, Wen Xichun could clearly see that there was no one else there except for her and Ye Qingzhou.

So? It was Ye Qingzhou who spoke.

But she didn't hear Ye Qingzhou move her mouth. Could it be that she was secretly given some kind of incense while chasing Ye Mengwan and the others, and now it's taking effect?

Wen Xichun frowned as she considered this possibility.

Why is Sister Chun frowning? Is she nervous and unsure how to start a conversation with me?

This narcissistic tone was something that only Ye Qingzhou himself could have imagined; Wen Xichun could never have come up with it on her own.

So, did she hear Ye Qingzhou's thoughts?

Well, she also wanted to know what kind of bear Ye Qingzhou really was.

"I want to ask you something."

"Sister, please tell me."

[Ask away! If you know, tell me and see if you can earn some spirit stones; if you don't, just say the time isn't right. You're probably just asking me to tell your fortune again; those who know, know.]

"Do you believe in fate?"

What a vicious question!

Wen Xichun was puzzled, but then heard Ye Qingzhou reply, "Of course I believe in fate."

[Just kidding, my little panda clan makes a living by fortune-telling. If our clan's princess says she doesn't believe in fate, how are we little pandas supposed to survive in the Yunying Continent?]

Continue to believe if you believe, and pretend to believe if you don't!

Wen Xichun knew she wouldn't get any useful answers from Ye Qingzhou, but she still wanted to tease her.

"What do you think is the best way to defy fate?"

Does Sister Chun know the Lu family's secret?

The Lu family has a secret, but who exactly is the Lu family?

However, this secret has been circulating for so many years, it's quite normal for Wen Xichun to know about it.

The veracity of that secret remains to be investigated. If the Lu family could truly change their fate, why did they end up being wiped out?

[Phew! Thank goodness Yuantong wasn't there, otherwise he would have broken down and started chanting scriptures again.]

What is the relationship between the Lu family and Yuantong?

Perhaps knowing that the silence had been too long, Ye Qingzhou finally spoke up, "It is said that the ancestors of the Lu family once devoured a portion of the power of the laws of time and space. This power of the laws has been passed down through the bloodline, and the descendants of the Lu family have the ability to reverse time and space and change their fate."

"However, the Lu family was wiped out more than 20 years ago. You have already met one of the Lu family's surviving members, Yuantong."

“There is also a Lu family orphan, who is my father. But neither Yuantong nor my father has the spacetime spiritual root.”

Wen Xichun bowed his head and clasped his hands in apology. "I'm sorry to talk about the tragedy that happened to your family."

Ye Qingzhou waved his hand, "Ignorance is no excuse. In fact, my father and cousin Yuantong were able to escape this calamity thanks to the fact that they did not have the spacetime spiritual root."

"The murderers who wiped out the Lu family members would dig out their cores, cut out their meridians, and sever their blood if they had a spiritual root in spacetime, but they would kill those who did not have a spiritual root in spacetime with a single blow."

"My father and Yuantong were carrying protective amulets, which is why they were able to fake their deaths and escape. Later, my father married my mother, and Yuantong entered the Buddhist order."

"Nowadays, only the murderer who wiped out the family probably knows this method of reversing time and changing fate. After all, if Father and the others knew it, they would be dead long ago. Over the years, Father has always hoped that Yuantong could return to secular life and continue the family line, but Yuantong disagrees."

"Actually, if it were me, I wouldn't want to either."

"Why?" Wen Xichun was always vengeful, and she couldn't understand Yuantong and Ye Qingzhou's retreat.

"Even if some descendants are exceptionally talented, possessing the spiritual root of time and space, and have the ability to defy fate and avenge their blood feud, they are innocent but their possession of a treasure is a crime. There will definitely be other forces in this world that want to destroy the Lu family. At that time, the people of the Lu family will only have two paths to take after they are born: waiting to be killed or waiting to take revenge."

"No one wants their descendants to repeat such a fate. Yuantong chose to become a monk because he did not want to live in death and killing."

"Aren't you going to seek revenge?"

"We'll see how things go. First, we'll try to survive. If we can get revenge, we will. If not, we'll cause some minor damage first."

Wen Xichun pondered, "Are you sure Yuantong thinks the same way?"
