I would rather betray the gods

Given the speed at which General Chong slew the enemy beneath the city walls, Yuzu knew she had no room for explanation.

However, after quite some time, the one that was supposed to come didn't arrive.

He then turned around to check the situation and saw a scarlet crystal gun pointing directly at his forehead.

The crystal gun is half crystal clear and half translucent, with exquisite patterns on its body. It is smooth yet robust, seemingly imbued with boundless spiritual energy.

Following the crystal spear further ahead is the Great General.

Contrary to expectations, the general was not wearing armor, but rather a snow-white fur robe.

The blood splattered on the fur robe didn't affect it at all; instead, it dripped slowly down the fur, which surprised Yuzu.

When we see the general again, his face is fair and handsome, like a young heartthrob today, but he also has waist-length white hair, making it hard to tell his age.

When Yuzu met the general's eyes, she was immediately startled.

A pair of completely black eyes, without a single speck of white.

So black it could only emit a faint light, like a black hole, capable of stealing the soul of anyone who looked into it, inspiring fear in anyone who saw it.

As for the "black line" that Yuzu saw on the city wall blocking the enemy, the answer is now clear.

It was the black flames emanating from the general's body as he moved rapidly.

Those wisps of black mist seemed to come from the depths of hell.

Strangely enough, this aura did not disgust Yuzu; on the contrary, it made him feel that the general was even more majestic and domineering.

Although she didn't quite understand, Yuzu could intuitively sense some clues: the general had developed some kind of power to its extreme.

Black eyebrows, black eyes, dark aura;

White face, white hair, white robe.

The only person who could combine two contrasting color schemes so perfectly must be this amazing individual!

Yuzi felt a pang of emotion.

Suddenly, he was startled again.

He found the general's demeanor strangely familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before.

The general, after meeting his gaze, also displayed the same expression.

Their first meeting was brief, with numerous soldiers wielding swords both inside and outside the pavilion. The general immediately withdrew his crystal spear and charged out of the pavilion.

Then, Yuzu touched his face and remembered his reflection in the mirror. The Great General was the past life he was looking for.

Therefore, the crystal gun sensed the same aura as its master the moment it pierced Yuzu, and thus stopped on its own, allowing Yuzu to escape danger...

That night, the white moonlight shone on the city walls, and the small town, which had once again repelled the enemy, was unusually quiet.

In his previous life, he wielded black flames as he cleaned up the corpses left behind during the day.

"This life" is like a bewildered junior, following behind.

After a period of relative silence, the first conversation across reincarnation was initiated by Yuzu, who took the initiative to explain his intention to be crowned king.

After listening, the general stopped and gazed at the bright moon in the sky in silence for a long time.

A gentle breeze stirred his hair, as if he had a thousand words to say, yet hesitated to speak. "I don't know those god-kings you mentioned, but I know why you came to this timeline."

"How so?" Yuzu really wanted to know the reason, because all the signs indicated that his current past life had not yet become a god and was still a mortal. Logically speaking, the little wind chime, as the medium, should have a higher resonance energy after he became a god.

"The person destined for you is about to appear." The general looked at Yuzu.

"It's my destiny..." Yuzu's words came to an abrupt halt.

He suddenly remembered the painting in the attic and the small wind chime that served as a medium, and vaguely understood something. The general had reincarnation, and the person the general deeply loved also had reincarnation, which, in other words, meant him and the person he was going to meet.

No wonder he always had a sense of destiny to wait for someone in this life. Could it be that fate had already made arrangements for him?

Perhaps at this moment, the general was in the most pain and confusion because of the person in the painting, and he was utterly despondent. So, an invisible force guided the little wind chime to bring him, the descendant, here.

That invisible force is the lingering attachment the person in the painting has for the great general.

This was to tell the general that the woman in his heart would always be by his side, and that no matter how things changed, they would definitely meet again in the future!

That's why the general said that.

Therefore, the little wind chime is not only a medium, but also a token that transcends time and space!

For a fleeting moment, Yuzu seemed to see the figure in the painting dancing gracefully beside the general...

Suddenly, the general appeared in the pavilion and then reappeared, holding the small wind chime in his hand.

He walked up to Youzi, touched Youzi's forehead with one hand, and said, "You have inherited my abilities. In your next life, you will have your own mission."

But remember, what follows is the same calamity I have experienced!

I will temporarily grant you a little power until you are strong enough.

I hope that in your next life you will no longer suffer.

Yuzu felt a strange energy seep into her head, which she could not describe.

Then, the general used his other hand to shake the small wind chime and tore open a spacetime rift in the air, slowly sending the pomelo into it.

The reason for the haste was that he had already seen that Youzi was currently in a state of spiritual separation from her body, and that delaying for too long would be disadvantageous. Since some things were already clear, there was no need to say more.

"My name is Chang Shengyou, what's yours?" Arriving so suddenly and leaving without warning, Yuzu realized she hadn't even had a chance to take out her phone to leave a memento.

Longevity Blessing?

Perhaps it was because of the name "Later Life," which is filled with the beautiful blessings of family, or perhaps it was because he knew that he would be able to continue his relationship with his beloved in his next life, but the general's cold and icy face showed a trace of relief. "You are not a fish."

"Okay, I've got it!" Yuzu shouted before the crack closed...

On his journey back to the present, a dream accompanied him all the way.

He dreamt of a graceful woman standing with her back to him in a light mist, holding a small silk fan and smiling softly. Her laughter sounded so familiar and touched his heartstrings.

It's the person in the painting!

Although he couldn't see her face, he had a strong intuition.

He desperately wanted to see the woman's face, but no matter how close he got, she remained neither too close nor too far away.

Perhaps he was in a hurry, or perhaps he had reached the end of the road, he woke up.

I'm awake again~

Waking up in various ways these past two days has given him a feeling of his thoughts going up and down like a rollercoaster.

He blinked, feeling the hazy light seeping into his eyelids. After a long while, he sat up, rubbed his eyes, and looked at the surrounding scenery, letting out another soft sigh: It's still not my home.

The enormous bedroom is as big as half the size of an average family home, and it is filled with all kinds of solid wood furniture and precious decorations, making it incredibly luxurious and grand!

Beside the large bed where he was, stood a woman of exceptional beauty, smiling at him.

This woman was Banlan. This was the first time he had seen Banlan. She was beautiful and had a great figure.

But it wasn't his type; he just wanted to meet someone who felt like the person in his dreams.

So he shifted his gaze to the window to the side, and what he saw there stunned him.

The view outside the window was outrageous: mountains and rivers, a sky full of strange stars, and a... pterosaur flying in the sky?

"Where is this?" Yuzu didn't want to pay attention to Banlan, but his curiosity completely overwhelmed his inherent arrogance (the more beautiful the unfamiliar woman, the less he would bother with her).

"Second Master, your God King's bedroom." Banlan put her hands in front of her, tilted her head slightly, and smiled sweetly.

Oh... Zifeiyu's home...

Just like when you're in an unfamiliar place and looking for a reference point, his first thought was of his past life.

As for how Banlan addressed him, he belatedly realized, "Second Master? Is this young lady calling me? Then who is First Master?"

Banlan chuckled upon hearing this, "Reincarnation does have some advantages. Our God-King isn't so serious and rigid anymore; he's become a bit more adorable. It's just that even I, Banlan, have forgotten about it!"

After saying that, Banlan looked aggrieved, walked to Youzi's side, and gently patted Youzi's shoulder with her little fist. "There is no such thing as a master. It's because Second Master has an older sister in the mortal world. He is the second oldest in his family, so I and everyone else call you 'Second Master'."

Little did she know that physical contact with an unfamiliar member of the opposite sex was Yuzu's Achilles' heel. Yuzu practically jumped off the bed, but due to the excessive force, she fell off the edge of the bed to the ground, immediately seeing stars.

"Wow, even the primordial spirit can get bumps on its head?" He touched the fleshy lump on his head and muttered to himself.

Banlan chuckled again and explained that he had traveled through time and space for a while and had been unconscious for two or three hours after returning. Considering that his mortal body could not be separated from his primordial spirit for too long, his mortal body was moved here, and he is now in a state of unity between his primordial spirit and physical body.

In other words, he is now in the realm of gods, and it's no longer a dream.
