Forced to become a pure and innocent female pharmacist in order to cultivate immortality.

Ye Qinglu shook her head, because she was not human, and not even a sentient being with feelings.

"I don't know, I don't really understand these things," Ye Qinglu replied.

As for Ye Liuyun, Ye Liuyun felt that there was hope, but not much hope, unless his good disciple shamelessly pursued him.

Let's take another look at Ye Hongchen and Shangguan Wan'er.

"You, Brother Hongchen, it really is you! How did you infiltrate our Tianxiu Sect? Did you come here specifically to find me?" Shangguan Wan'er looked Ye Hongchen up and down. Although she found it hard to believe, she still recognized him.

When Ye Hongchen saw that Shangguan Wan'er had finally recognized her, she breathed a sigh of relief. Before she recognized her, Shangguan Wan'er seemed very nervous.

"Ah! You recognized me after all. Yes, I came to Tianxiu Sect to find you. I... I still can't forget you," Ye Hongchen said in a deep voice.

This is an opportunity, and she can hardly find any other excuses, so she might as well go with the flow and take it one step at a time.

"This? But you're a man, right? Doesn't Elder Ye from the sect know your identity? That's impossible, isn't it? And with your attire, to be honest, I'm a little confused about whether you're a man or a woman now?" Shangguan Wan'er looked at Ye Hongchen with a bewildered expression.

Ye Hongchen's eyes darted around. She had no choice now, nor could she say that she was a man dressed as a woman, because it would be difficult to deceive people whether she was pretending or not.

Therefore, Ye Hongchen needed to fabricate a lie, a lie that could convince the other party, and he certainly couldn't betray Ye Liuyun.

"Well, Wan'er, I'm not afraid to tell you, I'm definitely not a man anymore," Ye Hongchen said with a sigh.

When Shangguan Wan'er received this answer, she was stunned and couldn't help but cover her mouth.

"How could this be? What exactly happened to you all these years?" Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but ask.

Ye Hongchen began to recount her experiences over the years. As for becoming a woman, she could only say that she had accidentally consumed some rare and precious herb as an explanation.

Although it seems unbelievable, it's not impossible. And given what Guan Wan'er saw of Ye Hongchen at that moment, it was hard for her not to believe it.

Shangguan Wan'er felt that Ye Hongchen's experience of such a terrible thing must have been a huge blow to her. After all, he was her fiancé. Even if they didn't have the chance to become husband and wife, it didn't stop them from being good sisters.

Moreover, even if she were willing to accept Ye Hongchen, their relationship would only be nominal.

Shangguan Wan'er is clearly a very gentle person. She could have ended their relationship long ago, but she just didn't want to hurt Ye Hongchen, so she never made a choice.

"Brother Hongchen, I never imagined such a terrible thing would happen to you. Don't worry, Wan'er won't look down on you. Although we can't be husband and wife, we can be good sisters." Shangguan Wan'er took Ye Hongchen's hand and said sincerely.

Shangguan Wan'er's sincere gaze stunned Ye Hongchen.

As for Ye Liuyun and his group, the result was unexpected.

"No way, this girl's thought process is a bit strange. Not only does she not look down on you and stay away, she actually takes the initiative to get closer to you?" Liu Su and Hei Niu were both dumbfounded.

Chapter 888 A Choice Without a Choice (5K)

Ye Liuyun was also somewhat surprised. Although she herself hoped to bring the two of them together, even if they couldn't reach the kind of marital relationship that transcended gender limitations that she and Lin Aoxue had, being close and innocent sisters would still be a good choice.

After all, they've become women, so it's impossible for them to have romantic feelings for each other anymore. True romantic feelings between men and women inevitably involve physical intimacy, so at most it's like making tofu. No matter how well the tofu is made, it's still just tofu.

Ye Hongchen was stunned by Shangguan Wan'er's words. Even she herself felt that Shangguan Wan'er's concern for her was a bit abrupt, or rather, a bit beyond her comprehension.

"Eh? Wan'er, aren't you sure I'm not lying to you?" Ye Hongchen felt that Shangguan Wan'er believed him too quickly.

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Wan'er finally realized what was going on. After careful consideration, she realized that she should indeed confirm things first. Relying solely on someone else's word would make her seem too trusting.

"Oh, that makes sense. I do need to confirm it first. But how do I confirm it? Should I find a place for you to take off your clothes so I can examine you and see if your body is real?" Shangguan Wan'er asked with a puzzled look.

Ye Hongchen was taken aback by these words. Although she was already quite satisfied with being able to get closer to him, she hadn't been able to make him fall in love with her when she was a man. Now that she was a woman, even if she had those thoughts, she was still aware of her own limitations.

"It's simple, you can tell if my body is real or fake just by touching it." Ye Hongchen took Shangguan Wan'er's hand and placed it on his chest.

It's strange that every woman who transitions from male to female usually has an excellent figure; they're definitely not the kind of flat-chested or unfeminine figure.

Ye Liuyun herself, Yun Xin and Qi Chaoying back then, plus Ye Feiwu, Su Wangchen and now Ye Hongchen, are all good-looking and very feminine.

Perhaps Ye Liuyun's elixir can only turn men into perfect women; that's the only explanation.

Anyway, Ye Hongchen's figure is better than Shangguan Wan'er's.

The moment Shangguan Wan'er touched Ye Hongchen's body, the familiar sensation made her instinctively squeeze him harder. This squeeze caused Ye Hongchen to involuntarily utter an "Ah."

This was, after all, the first time Ye Hongchen had allowed someone else to touch her body, and the unfamiliar sensation from a woman's body was stimulating her nerves.

"Damn, it's another **test. It was the same when I revealed my true identity to Aoxue back then." Ye Liuyun's thoughts drifted back to that time when he saw this scene.

Black Bull, standing to the side, glanced at Ye Liuyun, then looked at Ye Qinglu and Liusu.

"Strange, why do women who become nuns later in life seem more feminine than real women?" Black Bull muttered to himself.

No sooner had he finished speaking than a dangerous aura rushed toward Black Bull, followed by a flurry of punches and kicks from Ye Liuyun, who finally kicked him aside.

"Oh dear, oh dear, Master, what's wrong with you again? Did I say something wrong? Why are you hitting me like that?" Black Bull's donkey face had turned into a pig's face as he lay behind the three women, crying and asking.

"It's nothing, it's just that I feel like none of the words coming out of your mouth are pleasant to hear. I feel like you're making fun of me. Won't you get beaten for making fun of your master?" Ye Liuyun clapped his hands and asked.

"Serves you right," Liu Su said with a laugh.

As for Ye Qinglu, she just gave Black Bull a strange look and then asked a question.

"Sister, did Brother Niu say something wrong? I think she's right. You do seem to be more feminine than us," Ye Qinglu said.

Ye Qinglu's words stung Ye Liuyun.

"What kind of talk is that? No matter how feminine you look, you're still a man at heart. This idiot is basically saying I'm not a man, so of course I'm not happy about it." Ye Liuyun arrogantly flicked his hair and said unhappily.

On the other hand, after Shangguan Wan'er confirmed that Ye Hongchen's body had indeed truly become a woman, her wariness towards Ye Hongchen completely disappeared.

If Ye Hongchen were still a man, she definitely wouldn't be so close to him. It's because he was originally her fiancé and childhood sweetheart, and now that he's a woman, how can they still be childhood friends? With this mindset, she can naturally accept the current Ye Hongchen.

The main reason is that she never had romantic feelings for Ye Hongchen. If she really liked Ye Hongchen, she would definitely mind his current gender. It's precisely because she doesn't like him that she doesn't mind.

"Is it true?" Ye Hongchen said, blushing slightly.

"Yes, it's true. I never thought we'd become sisters. But Brother Hongchen, so many years have passed, and our parents are gone. From now on, you'll be my only family in this world. Brother Hongchen, you don't know how lonely I've been all these years. I've always hoped that one day someone would appear who could share my joy and sorrow." Shangguan Wan'er had almost completely let her guard down around Ye Hongchen.

Her understanding of Ye Hongchen was still based on their childhood memories. When they were young, Ye Hongchen would hug and kiss her and they would talk freely. She missed those innocent days when they were childhood sweethearts.

She doesn't have the idea of ​​becoming husband and wife, but she can accept becoming sisters or siblings.

"They've already built a relationship? Is Shangguan Wan'er some kind of naive and innocent girl?" Ye Liuyun was speechless.

The two began to talk, especially Shangguan Wan'er, who started to confide in Ye Hongchen, telling him about her personal experiences over the years.

Ye Hongchen listened attentively and also shared his own experiences. Compared to Shangguan Wan'er's, Ye Hongchen's experiences were far more thrilling, filled with countless close calls that left Shangguan Wan'er terrified.

Most importantly, Ye Hongchen entered the cultivation world back then in order to be with Shangguan Wan'er, which inexplicably moved Shangguan Wan'er. Although she had met Ye Hongchen once back then, she was also puzzled as to how Ye Hongchen became a cultivator.

However, at that time, he had only passed through, and he had only barely reached the early stage of the Spirit Wheel Realm in the mortal world, so Shangguan Wan'er told him to forget about her.

"I never imagined, Brother Hongchen, that you entered the cultivation world for my sake. I... I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said those things to you back then." Shangguan Wan'er felt a little ashamed.

Ye Hongchen shook his head.

"It's alright, I understand you. If I were you, I probably would have made the same choice," Ye Hongchen replied.

The two of them went back and forth, and their words, when they reached Ye Liuyun's ears, made her feel intensely nauseous.

"Ugh... this is so cheesy, it makes my bones feel weak," Ye Hongchen complained.

Because she and Lin Aoxue rarely seem to say such unbearable things.

The two chatted for a long time, and Ye Liuyun and the other three eavesdropped for just as long. Soon, they held hands and returned to the venue to continue watching the game.

Ye Liuyun and the other three found a comfortable spot to sit down, drinking spirit wine and eating spirit fruit, while watching a group of children playing around.

After Ye Hongchen took the stage, the four of them became slightly interested. Ye Hongchen was similar to Ye Liuyun back then; he was easily underestimated when he went on stage because they were not in the same cultivation system. Others thought that Ye Hongchen was only at the weakest early stage of the Spirit Wheel Realm.

However, once they started fighting, it was a one-sided affair. Ye Hongchen's speed was far beyond what these magic cultivators could match. Magic cultivators of the same realm couldn't even touch Ye Hongchen.

Ye Hongchen felt that he was much stronger than before, and could easily deal with cultivators at the peak of the Spirit Wheel Realm.

"Is this the body tempering that Master was talking about? It's really amazing. It seems she really wasn't lying to me. I was the one who misunderstood her." After an easy victory, Ye Hongchen's impression of Ye Liuyun improved considerably.

After watching Ye Hongchen's first battle, Black Bull spoke up.

"She feels like a carbon copy of her master. Master, did you pass on all the skills you learned back then to her? Apart from the slightly different fighting style, I don't think there's much difference."

"Well, I passed on the method my master taught me to her. Back then, I was just experimenting on the path, but her situation is different. Her power will only increase faster than mine back then. By the way, I have a three-year agreement with her. As long as she can still maintain her true self and wants to turn back into a man after three years, even if I lose, I will be responsible for turning her back into a man. What do you think are the chances that this guy can beat me?" Ye Liuyun asked with a smile.

Ye Qinglu didn't speak because she couldn't comment, but Liu Su and Hei Niu both shook their heads directly.

“I don’t think she can win. According to you, you’ve already taken her as your apprentice for a month, but I’ve noticed that she doesn’t seem to have any masculine traits. Look at her every move; does she have any manly qualities? Absolutely not. Don’t even mention three years; I don’t think she can last three months,” Black Bull said.

Liu Su thought so too; they even felt that Ye Hongchen lacked any feminine charm, unlike Ye Liuyun.

"Haha, I think so too. This kid ate my Reverse Rebirth Pill, and a very charming second personality appeared in his body. This second personality has been influencing her invisibly, but she herself doesn't feel it. Or rather, without someone reminding her, she can only pay attention to not letting her personality be affected, but the influence on her external physical body is beyond her notice." Ye Liuyun chuckled.

“Then there’s even less hope. Besides, I have a feeling this guy will become even more womanly than you, Master. Just you wait and see,” Black Bull said confidently.

Of the group, Black Bull had been with Ye Liuyun the longest and had seen him before. After Ye Liuyun revealed his true form, Black Bull was the first mount to know Ye Liuyun's secret.

Therefore, she knew very well that there was no way to reverse Ye Hongchen's fate.

Ye Liuyun chuckled. As someone who had personally experienced it, she naturally understood the ins and outs of the matter.

"As expected of you. By the way, are you guys interested in going to explore that chaotic spacetime on Tianchen Star? It's a really fun place where you can encounter your counterpart from another timeline." Ye Liuyun glanced at Wanxing City.

Black Bull and his team didn't really pay much attention to the minor skirmishes here. The place they observed most was actually the Chaotic Spacetime Star City area.

The excitement over there is much greater than here.

“Master, you know what, I really want to see what I’m like in other timelines. To be honest, when it comes to causing trouble, you’re always number one in the world. After I noticed what was going on over there, I knew it was you. In this world, no one but you has the ability to mess up timelines like this. Come to think of it, it seems like we’ve all witnessed it, haven’t we?” Black Bull laughed.

“Yes, back when we were at the Cloud Mist Sect, spacetime was thrown into chaos once. This time it’s even more outrageous. Sure enough, whenever you refine medicine, the world is thrown into chaos. Just one time you refine medicine and the entire Celestial God Star System is in this state. You truly deserve to be the biggest mastermind. But, isn’t it a bit much to disrupt the peace of the Celestial God Star System like this?” Liu Su asked with a smile.

Ye Liuyun had definitely thought about this question, but she didn't know how much longer she would have to live before leaving this world. Anyway, she still had time, so she wanted to do what she wanted to do as soon as possible.

Otherwise, once they leave, they'll just be left watching helplessly.

"If it were back then, I certainly wouldn't have done this, but there's not much better way now. Using chaos to control chaos is the only method I can think of right now. Do you have any better ideas? I mean, under the premise of minimizing the casualties of innocent people," Ye Liuyun asked rhetorically.

This immediately stumped Liu Su and Hei Niu, because they really couldn't think of a better way. You can't just convince them with words, can you? Not to mention that they weren't invincible in the lower realm, even those powerful Tianyuan experts back then, who were invincible in the lower realm, were never truly able to quell the conflicts between the various races.

The quickest way would naturally be to eliminate one side, but wildfires cannot be extinguished, and they will spring up again with the spring breeze. If we really want to do that, we would have to eliminate all the people who are hostile to the Immortal Realm of Immortality, as well as those related to them. How many people would that require? Can you kill them all?

The ultimate result is that, many years later, Ye Liuyun will likely become a demon in the legends of the human race, and whenever their origins are mentioned, he will once again harbor resentment towards their descendants.

You should know that Lin Aoxue only destroyed a star, yet some people have exaggerated it, saying that she killed countless living beings 90,000 years ago and was comparable to a forbidden demon.

This is the terrifying power of legends and rumors. As time goes by, these things are gradually exaggerated, and that's how hostility arises.

"Speaking of which, let me ask you this: was there really no other choice back then? Why did you have to send the Immortal Realm of Longevity into the Immortal Realm? And who came up with this idea?" Ye Liuyun suddenly asked.

That's a good question. Tassel and Black Bull are intrigued.

"So, Master, you don't know what happened? Let me explain. Back then, the first group of people who followed you in the Immortal Realm of Longevity all reached their lifespan limit. At that time, Master Aoxue originally planned to seal them all with Divine Source Stones, but after searching all the forbidden areas, the Divine Source Stones she found couldn't even protect one-tenth of the people. If she wanted to preserve more, she would have to divide those Divine Source Stones. If she divided them, they could only live for another three thousand years at most."

"Do you think it makes sense?" Black Bull asked.

Ye Liuyun shook her head. If sealing the Divine Source Stone for only three thousand years would be useless, and by the time she returned, it would probably all be a pile of bones.

"Because the mistress knew that this was meaningless, she began to think of other ways. After a while, the mistress somehow came up with a solution: to use the power of the Burial God Star to take advantage of the arrival of the Heavenly Abyss Immortal Palace and the reopening of the Immortal Gate. With the power of the Burial God Star, the mistress's realm would instantly surpass the lower realm level. Then, she would break through the barrier of the Immortal Realm and send the entire Immortal Realm of Longevity into it."

"You should know what happened next. The mistress did succeed, but the price was the destruction of the entire God Burial Star. From our perspective, the mistress did her best to protect your relatives and deceased relatives. For those who did not want to go to the Immortal Realm, the mistress gave them a maximum of 100,000 years of divine source to seal themselves."

"Because you said back then that as long as you lived, you could ascend to the Immortal Realm in a maximum of 100,000 years," the Black Ox recounted.

After listening to Black Bull's story, Ye Liuyun couldn't help but sigh. After she was sealed, all the burdens fell on Lin Aoxue's shoulders, which was indeed too difficult for Lin Aoxue. Lin Aoxue had really done her best to get to this point.

"Ah! I feel bad for Aoxue. So, there must be quite a few people who have sealed themselves off in the lower realm. Didn't we say back then that only cultivators who have reached the Divine Realm can enter the Immortal Realm? I saw the list at the Ye family's place on the Flying Immortal Continent. Only two-thirds of the people on it ascended to the Immortal Realm. Are the rest of them still sealing themselves off?" Ye Liuyun asked.

Black Bull shook his head.

"Well, I don't know the answer to that. You'll probably have to ask your younger brother and sister. By the way, have you met them yet?" Black Bull replied.

"Sigh! No, you know perfectly well that if I go to see them now, who knows what demands they'll make? Most likely, they'll want me to use my descendants from the Immortal Realm to wipe out all the enemies and then dominate the Celestial God Star System." Ye Liuyun said helplessly.

Black Bull and Liu Su fell silent, pondering the probability of this happening. According to the information they had received, the two sides had harbored resentment for tens of thousands of years, a feud far greater than their own past enmity with the Reincarnation Holy Land.

Therefore, they felt that the probability was extremely high, or even 100%.

When a group of descendants make requests, what do you think Ye Liuyun will do? He'll definitely be caught in a dilemma.

“That’s true, but if you’re bored, Master, you could sneak into the Immortal Realm of Immortality and take a look,” Black Ox suggested.

To be honest, Ye Liuyun did have such a thought.

"Once the Star God Sect is built, I'll go and see for myself. I need to see how the Longevity Sect founded by my younger brother and sister differs from the Longevity Immortal Realm of my past," Ye Liuyun replied.

The battles on Tianxiu Sect's side also came to an end one by one. A few days later, Ye Hongchen encountered a formidable enemy. She had to deal with an enemy at the Dao Palace realm. In this competition, Ye Hongchen used the strange pill she had refined, which shone brightly. She defeated her opponent and won first place in this sect competition.

"Good heavens, Master, you even taught this girl your pill-making skills? Aren't you afraid that she'll use your pills to wreak havoc on the world once she grows up?" Black Bull was shocked when he saw the pills Ye Hongchen used in the competition.

Ye Liuyun stood up with a smile.
