Having dodged the thread of destiny coming from the Imperial Capital, Li Yaowen's expression froze.
She was clearly advancing through the cloudy sky, yet the entire world before her eyes had completely changed its appearance.
It was Duravia Trade Prefecture—the Duravia Trade Prefecture before it was annexed by Azure Cloud Prefecture.
The world before her was the Immortal Domain. She stood within the Immortal Domain, and among the descendants of the Zhao Clan, she was there.
Then, the sky turned dark, and the earth grew gloomy as the Azure Cloud Prefecture's grand army charged in...
Immediately after, everything shifted: the Zhao Clan's Old Ancestor appeared, followed by the ground covered in flesh and blood... and then to the death of the body she now inhabited...
"Patter... Patter..."
The flesh and blood of the Zhao clansmen began to flow into her dead body, and boundless power entered her frame.
"Huu."
The world she had just seen gradually vanished, replaced by the sky of Azure Cloud Prefecture. Li Yaowen murmured, "Another [Flashback]."
The power in her body swelled; she had taken another step forward.
She called this method of acquiring power [Flashback].
Upon arriving at the place where her reincarnated body had died, she would obtain the power that her reincarnated body had acquired through various means.
Every time she arrived, she would become even stronger.
Then, in the days that followed, her soul would continuously fall into reincarnation cycles.
Gradually, she would have to use all her strength to distinguish reality from the past, and even to figure out exactly who she was, while simultaneously mastering her new power.
Following that... she would have to evade the prying eyes from all over the world directed at her family.
Having just experienced the [Flashback], Li Yaowen looked down at the prosperous and bustling Azure Cloud Prefecture.
A smile gradually surfaced on her face; at the very least, everything was worth it.
She held a grand vision in her heart: one day, when there were no more prying eyes in the world, and no more immortals, she could stand among her clansmen, behind the Old Ancestor and her parents, walking shoulder to shoulder with her elder brothers and sisters.
Back in the small village of Green Valley Village, after throwing grand banquets, the clansmen would change into farming clothes, working at sunrise and resting at sunset.
Back then, the most troublesome thing was Second Sister kicking down Third Brother's door and dragging him out of bed to scold him, all under the bewildered gaze of Third Sister-in-law.
Envisioning the future, Li Yaowen passed through day and night, experiencing several [Flashbacks], and arrived at Westfall Prefecture.
The Eternal Immortal Sect.
"..."
In an instant, an old man with a transcendent, immortal bearing appeared before Li Yaowen.
Li Yaowen was still immersed in the disorientation of her recent [Flashback].
Before her, Ancestor Lan frowned deeply, vigilantly staring at this girl who had suddenly appeared.
The girl did not conceal her aura in the slightest, yet trailing behind her... were the prying eyes of the Human Emperor, the Empress, Min Youguo... and other experts who absolutely shouldn't have been brought here.
If he waited another three to five days, it would be no different from stripping him naked and tossing him in front of the entire world.
"Miss, wake up. This old man has enough trouble as it is." Ancestor Lan waved his hand.
He had seen plenty of bizarre people in this world, and this girl was definitely among the most eerie. Especially since he could sense that even if he killed her, she would still survive.
"What a monster." Ancestor Lan tightened his hands behind his back. He was waiting to die in the Immortal Sect, and he didn't want to cause any trouble before his death.
It wasn't until half an hour later.
Li Yaowen's eyes gradually regained their clarity.
Lowering her head, she saw the brothers Yunlin and Yunbing, along with many of the family's children, all at the Immortal Sect. She knew she was now in 'reality'.
She glanced at Ancestor Lan.
Ancestor Lan was undoubtedly one of the most powerful people in the world. He, like her, was hiding. However, it seemed he couldn't hide anymore.
The immortals had paid no attention to Ancestor Lan; rather, it was the myriad threads of destiny from the Imperial Capital that had ravaged Ancestor Lan, riddling him with holes.
She called this kind of person a 'dead man walking'.
Ancestor Lan, just like her, had absolutely no free time, mostly because he was constantly dodging.
In truth, he could have hidden, but seeing Ancestor Lan riddled with holes now, he actually seemed completely relaxed, which was enviable.
"Senior, I suggest you go on a massive slaughter in the Imperial Capital before you die," Li Yaowen chuckled faintly.
Ancestor Lan laughed as well.
"Destroy them, and then what? That would truly be a disaster. Even though they are nothing but scum, they are at least combat power that can be used against the immortals."
As he spoke, Ancestor Lan frowned. "Miss, your abilities are not small. If they were used to deal with the immortals..."
"I don't have the time."
Li Yaowen shook her head. This senior before her had clearly seen that she was entangled in a myriad of affairs, to the point of having no free time at all.
She said in a deep voice, "My surname is Li."
"Surname Li?" The corners of Ancestor Lan's mouth twitched.
Aside from the Li Clan's Old Ancestor—who was completely unfathomable—the Li Clan actually had another bizarre entity.
"Inside this junior's second sister's body resides an immortal, coexisting with my second sister.
With my abilities, I am far from being a match for that immortal. I wonder if Senior would be willing to accompany this junior on a trip?" Li Yaowen's voice was soft and gentle.
"A coexisting immortal?"
Ancestor Lan narrowed his eyes. "Then she is a human cauldron. Aside from killing It, I'm afraid there is no other way."
"There is," Li Yaowen replied, her expression calm.
"If Senior helps, it will be a great grace. That immortal dispatched the Red Dust Immortal to kill someone in order to break through to Body Integration. We don't have much time left."
In the cloudy sky, the two stared at each other for a long time.
Ancestor Lan gazed intently at the numerous spirit tablets surrounding Li Yaowen, as well as the prying eyes tracking her.
Ultimately, the killing intent in his eyes dissipated, and he exhaled a long breath. "What is the method?"
"To go see It."
Li Yaowen smiled warmly. "Senior, open your mind and soul, and please accompany this junior to see the immortal."
She slowly closed her eyes. In the cloudy sky, all things in the world gradually faded away and took on an entirely different appearance.
Looking up.
Beneath a sky full of stars, there was a Nine-Leaf Clover.
