I only want to win over the fairy.

Bai Yi thought to himself, "Whenever the power from the River of Time is mentioned, the first thing that comes to mind is how I used the power from the River of Time to defeat the being named Li Yu. If it weren't for that power, the situation might have been much worse."

Now, Akizuki Ren is making this suggestion....

So that's how it is. The clues connect. The power from the River of Time back then was exactly the power of myself during the Human Emperor era. And I just finished that simulation not long ago. If Qiu Yuelian obtained the reward about herself from that simulation and used it, then it would give me power in a short period of time, which makes sense.

Thinking of the favor Qiu Yuelian had done for him, Bai Yi smiled and said sincerely, "It's worth a try. I unexpectedly received a gift from the River of Time before, which helped me resolve a huge crisis. I have benefited greatly from that gift ever since. If I could receive another gift, resurrecting people should be a piece of cake."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Yuelian's eyes brightened considerably, and a smile involuntarily appeared on her lips. It seemed that the card she had used back then had been quite helpful to him.

She took out a card that shimmered with a jewel-like luster and handed it to Bai Yi, saying earnestly, "Using this card will allow you to gain the power of a peak Emperor within seven days. With this card, you will be able to defeat any enemy."

Bai Yi took the card. He recognized the image printed on it very clearly; it was the scene of his battle in the forbidden zone of life, where he pacified the area.

What a coincidence.

For this simulation of pacifying the restricted area, Bai Yi chose the immersive simulation, thus possessing all the memories of this simulation. If he could obtain his peak power from this simulation, he would not feel any rustiness and would be able to unleash that power flawlessly.

Enemies that would normally require considerable effort to defeat are no longer a threat with this card.

Hmph! Gui Ming, it's time to show her what Feng Ling Yue Ying is all about.

"Thank you, Yue Lian." Bai Yi sincerely expressed his gratitude and continued, "The Human Emperor Palace is the strongest force in the Nine Provinces. However, even such a transcendent existence has seen a powerful figure fall. It must have been attacked. If there is anything I can do to help, I will do my best."

Shen Tu: "......."

Why did she and Qiu Yuelian come together, yet there's such a huge difference in their appearances...?

Moreover, when Bai Yi was talking to me, his words and attitude were full of indifference and even disdain, but when he was talking to Qiu Yuelian, he maintained an equal attitude throughout and communicated with her as a friend.

Or is it that the thing Qiu Yuelian gave me has such great charm?

Pshaw! It's just a seven-day experience of the Great Emperor realm, what's so great about that?

Bai Yi would certainly not waver in his stance because of such trivial matters. He already possessed enough to assemble the combat power of a Great Emperor, and he did not need such a dispensable trinket at all. Therefore, the problem must still lie in the difference between himself and Qiu Yuelian.

What's the difference between myself and Qiuyue Lian?

It was clearly their first time visiting Tianxuan Peak.

So, the reason for such a big difference when they first met must be their race.

It's obvious that someone with a human body and a snake tail isn't human, so it's understandable that they would instinctively feel resistance or even dislike.

This is troublesome.

If I want Bai Yi's Reincarnation Seal, I have to build a good relationship with him, and it has to be a long-term relationship. Otherwise, if I upset him, he might kick me out and make me disappear from his sight forever. Wouldn't that be the end of me?

She didn't want to remain in this human-bodied, snake-tailed form forever, and for her cultivation to never improve until she evolved into an ouroboros.

Perhaps... I should learn from Qiu Yuelian, give some gifts, and make some friends?

Chapter 177 Mom, I'm really angry.

As the day passed and night fell, Shen Tu finally had a moment of leisure.

After their first meeting, Shen Tu's interest in Bai Yi grew stronger, especially his completely ignoring attitude that showed he didn't care about her at all, which really fascinated her.

She sat in the pavilion on Tianxuan Peak, set her long tail in place, and felt the cool breeze blowing around her.

In this tranquil setting, she gazed at the crescent moon hanging high in the sky.

Gazing up at the untouchable moonlight, she thought of Bai Yi, and a hint of fervor appeared in her proud and aloof eyes.

"That nobility, that beauty, that power, that feeling of being out of reach... just like the bright moonlight."

The moon, hanging in the sky, always arrives as promised at night, casting its light upon the world and giving it equally to all living beings. This is not because the moon is exceptionally gentle, but simply because it doesn't care.

The high and mighty God doesn't care how many insects his glory shines upon.

Perhaps... in Bai Yi's eyes, he was no different from an insect that could be found anywhere on the roadside.

Otherwise, why would he completely ignore him, refusing to even lend him a room and leaving him to sleep on the mountaintop in the cold wind?

What convinced her most was not that Bai Yi hadn't lent her a place to stay, but that he hadn't driven her away.

If Bai Yi dislikes him, he can simply expel him. Even if he feels dissatisfied, he won't feel too much, since there is a racial difference between them.

But he didn't. He ignored me and never looked at me directly once from beginning to end.

This man,

They have humiliated themselves time and time again.

This was undoubtedly a blatant trampling of one's dignity and pride into the ground, and then spitting out a few mouthfuls of water as they left.

No, it didn't even qualify as spitting. The other person simply trampled on her dignity and pride as calmly as ever, like stepping on an ant that was not worth paying any attention to.

If the Bai Yi I first met on the battlefield in my memory was a fierce battlefield rose, then the Bai Yi I know now is a supreme deity.

The former would at least make some response before killing herself, while the latter would not be swayed much by her at all.

This feeling...

It's so addictive!

Today's meeting has made Shen Tu even more certain of one thing: Bai Yi is the nemesis he has no choice but to defeat!

Gazing up at the bright moonlight, she couldn't help but let her imagination run wild.

What exactly is Bai Yi doing right now...?

He must be working hard at training.

----------

At this moment, Bai Yi was doing something insatiable. He was lying on a warm and soft lap pillow, enjoying the care.

Bai Yi, who obtained the card that could project the power from the river of time, began to study it that very night, but unsurprisingly, he failed.

When he tried to use the power of reincarnation to analyze the structure and power inside the card and explore its origin, he was immediately attacked by the backlash from the river of time.

In an instant, he felt as if his whole body was being torn into countless pieces, and everything in front of him was constantly splitting apart. Each split scene would develop into the same yet different landscape.

So he lay down.

"To peer into the river of time without any precautions, you really enjoy doing extremely dangerous things." The girl with heterochromatic eyes gently stroked Bai Yi's tightly closed eyes with her fingers, brushing away the time power that kept entangled in his eyes. Her tone and attitude were full of maternal radiance.

"It was just an accident. Who would have thought that this thing was actually connected to the river of time, and involved so deeply? But..." Bai Yi's tone was slightly excited. He was not frustrated by this accident. On the contrary, he was full of energy: "The more it is like this, the more interesting it is. After all, if I can figure this thing out, maybe I can master the way of time."

"..." Zi, who was temporarily in control of Xuan Yuanmeng's body, frowned as she looked at Bai Yi's appearance: "This kind of thing is very dangerous."

"It's alright, I know what I'm doing," Bai Yi said nonchalantly. "Besides, danger is everywhere. If I don't have these powerful abilities, it will be difficult for me to protect you from such dangers."

Why do you always have to be like this...?

Why do you always have to do such dangerous things...?

Zi couldn't understand Bai Yi's behavior.

Life's path is inherently fraught with difficulties and thorns. If one suffers setbacks and injuries, leaving behind painful blood, one will want to avoid this painful path and choose an easier one. With each drop of blood, everyone will learn a lesson, because once the body is covered in wounds, the mind and body become exceptionally vulnerable. A slight misstep can end life, leaving behind only a trail of bloody thorns, proclaiming that someone was buried here. However, there are always some people who disregard the thorns ahead and stubbornly insist on exploring forward, even at the cost of leaving themselves scarred.

Bai Yi is such a stubborn guy; he knows some things are extremely dangerous, but he still insists on doing them.

“Occasionally… you need to take a break.” Zi’s tone remained calm. “Just for my sake, could you… slow down a bit and take care of yourself?”

Upon hearing this, Bai Yi narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the girl in front of him, trying to see what kind of expression she had. What he saw was pure white, delicate fabric adorned with patterns, and full breasts that exuded a flowing beauty under the fabric.

I can't see it at all.

As expected, Azusa's original body was better; this kind of inherently sinful body is simply the embodiment of a demon.

Why would a celestial being use such a sinful body?

What exactly did Xuanyuan Meng refer to when he sculpted the body?

Rubbing his still-painful eyes, Bai Yi pondered carefully, but ultimately couldn't figure out who this guy had modeled after to create such a sinful body.

Moreover, he doesn't remember knowing anyone with heterochromia.

"Ugh....."

Zi sighed, gently moved Bai Yi's hand away, and then tenderly massaged his eyes.

She had realized that Bai Yi's problem might be even more serious than her own; he seemed to be lacking something important, just like she had been back then.

His thinking seems to be very different from that of ordinary people. For example, even when you are talking to him about something very important, his attention seems to be on something completely unimportant.

Just as she was thinking this, Bai Yi suddenly spoke up: "I will."

"Hmm." Zi's eyes narrowed slightly, and a smile seemed to appear on her usually calm face.

The girl's emotions stirred, but she did not let those emotions gather and be suppressed in her chest, nor did she let them become something that affected her judgment. Instead, she transformed them into a more direct, unconfrontational, and unguarded closeness.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, the girl naturally lowered her face and pressed her soft, cherry-like lips to hers.

The whole process was very sudden and very fast.

After doing all this, Zi's expression returned to calm, as if she had only done something insignificant, something no different from eating or drinking.

“Good children deserve rewards, and this is your reward.” Zi’s tone was calm, her expression and voice were incredibly calm and indifferent, yet she seemed to exude a maternal tenderness.

"What about disobedient, naughty kids?" Bai Yi teased with interest.

Upon hearing this, Zi paused for a moment, then said, "Then I'll have to punish you properly and teach you a lesson."

At that moment, a sudden roar interrupted their thoughts.

"Hey! You two have gone too far!!!"

"You guys can flirt all you want, but could you please stop using my body to flirt?"

"Do you really think I don't exist?!"

These two guys are really going too far. I've already done more than enough by lending my body to Zi to live in, and now you're just having fun in the house, huh?

Hearing what the two said, Xuan Yuanmeng was furious.

She only logged off for a short while to receive the rewards from the cultivation simulator, and the two of them ended up kissing right there.

Now that you two can kiss, she doesn't even dare to think about what you might do next!

And punishments and such...

Did you two end up in bed while being punished?
