"Ding Dong!"
System Notification:
"The host is showing signs of envy toward the supreme experts of the universe. In light of this, and with great indignation, the system has decided to bestow upon the host all known mental methods, martial arts, and secret techniques below the Emperor level!"
As soon as the system finished speaking, a massive torrent of knowledge surged into Ye Feng's mind. Countless ancient techniques, obscure martial arts, and forbidden secrets flashed before his eyes like a tidal wave of enlightenment. His spiritual sea trembled from the flood of information.
Nearby, Ying Huanhuan noticed the strange change in Ye Feng's expression. She walked over with concern in her eyes.
"Master, what's wrong with you?" she asked gently.
Ye Feng slowly exhaled, then looked at her with a calm yet mysterious gaze. "Huanhuan, you're actually far more powerful than you think. If you can unlock your potential, you can surpass even the powerhouses of the Reincarnation Realm."
Ying Huanhuan blinked, confused. "Potential? Master, I don't understand. How can tapping into my potential make me stronger than someone in the Reincarnation Realm?"
"Because," Ye Feng said with a faint smile, "you weren't ordinary in your previous life."
"Previous life?" she murmured, a crease forming between her brows. "You're saying my strength... has something to do with my past life?"
Ye Feng nodded. "In your past life, you were the Ice Lord—one of the Eight Ancient Masters. You were also the bearer of the Weapon Talisman, one of the eight ancestral talismans. The Talisman Ancestor personally acknowledged you as the person with the greatest chance of advancing to the Ancestral Realm in the entire Profound Sky Continent. To the people of that era, you were the hope that would save the world."
"Me? Save the world?" Ying Huanhuan's voice rose in disbelief.
"Yes," Ye Feng confirmed. "During the ancient war between heaven and earth, countless alien demon kings perished under your icy might. Even the powerful Heavenly King Palace of the Demon Prison suffered heavy losses at your hands and was forced into hiding. Though the Profound Sky Continent eventually triumphed, all eight ancient masters were gravely wounded. Talisman Ancestor burned the reincarnation seal and sealed the spatial rift with his final breath to expel the alien threat."
Ye Feng's tone deepened. "Before dying, he used the last of his strength to send you, Ice Lord, into reincarnation. A thousand years later, you were reborn as the youngest daughter of Ying Xuanzi, the leader of Dao Sect's Eastern Xuan Domain."
Ying Huanhuan stood frozen, stunned by the flood of revelations.
Ye Feng turned his gaze to her, observing her expression. She was still young—her figure graceful in a flowing white robe, her cheeks delicate and fair, eyes as clear as lake water. Her black hair was tied in a high ponytail that reached her slender waist, the tips curling slightly with youthful energy. From her body emanated subtle spiritual waves, accompanied by crisp, musical chimes like wind brushing through fine crystal. Her hands, white as mutton-fat jade, were elegant and flawless, her fingers slender and perfectly proportioned.
"I... I don't know why, but what you're saying feels true," she whispered, still struggling to comprehend.
Smack!
"Ow!" Ying Huanhuan yelped as Ye Feng knocked her lightly on the head.
"What the master says is always true," Ye Feng replied plainly.
Ying Huanhuan rubbed her head, fuming. "That hurt!"
"Stop questioning your master. I never speak without reason."
"But... can you really see a person's past and present lives?" she asked, still not fully convinced.
Ye Feng chuckled. "Of course."
"Then... what about her?" Ying Huanhuan asked, pointing at Ling Qingzhu, who had been quietly listening.
Ye Feng's expression turned contemplative. "Her previous life wasn't as extraordinary. She was the princess of a fallen dynasty. When the dynasty declined, she was forced into a political marriage. Her husband was a cruel tyrant who tormented her endlessly. Eventually, she took her own life."
As he spoke, Ye Feng flicked his finger, sending a thread of light into Ling Qingzhu's forehead.
In an instant, memories long buried surged to the surface. Ling Qingzhu's body trembled slightly.
"Chenxi… The Liehuo Dynasty…" she whispered.
Ying Huanhuan gasped. "Princess Chenxi? You were the princess of the Liehuo Dynasty in your previous life?"
Ling Qingzhu nodded, her face pale. The memories were like vivid dreams—filled with pain and despair. She had once endured endless humiliation. Her only brother, the hope of her family, had been killed in the struggle for the throne. And when the next king took power, as per the Xuanbing Dynasty's cruel tradition, she was to become his concubine—an inheritance, like an object.
Rather than submit, she chose death.
"I remember now… everything," Ling Qingzhu murmured, trembling.
Ying Huanhuan was shaken. The pain in Ling Qingzhu's eyes was undeniable. Her past life wasn't just a story—it was a tragedy etched into her soul.
"Master, can you really see all that?" Huanhuan asked again, more out of awe than doubt now.
"If you still don't believe me, I can help awaken your past life memories too," Ye Feng offered.
"Okay," she said with surprising resolve.
Ye Feng looked at her in surprise. "You're not hesitant?"
In the original timeline, Ying Huanhuan had strongly resisted recovering her past life memories. But now… she was actually eager.
"I've changed my mind," Ying Huanhuan said, glancing at Ling Qingzhu. "She awakened her memories and is still herself. Besides… if I can gain the strength you mentioned, why would I refuse? Knowing my past is also a way of respecting who I was."
Ye Feng smiled. "Awakening your memories of the past life, huh? It does sound interesting."
Ying Huanhuan nodded. "Let's do it."
"Very well." Ye Feng lifted his hand and formed a mysterious seal, channeling ancient energy into his fingertips. The spell condensed into a glowing rune that flew into Ying Huanhuan's chest.
