Over the past two days, she had basically crammed all of Lin Tianming's various competition videos from the past month.

Even though she knew that Lin Tianming had long survived a crisis in the Red Sea Secret Realm, her heart still leapt to her throat when she saw it happening.

Like Lianghua, Tianshui didn't need Lin Tianming's strategies and held deep feelings for him.

However, due to the persecution she faced in her previous life by the original soul, the gentle-as-water Tianshui chose to avoid confronting her feelings after her rebirth.

Only after the bits and pieces during the Sea Emperor Festival did she choose not to avoid her feelings for Lin Tianming any longer and confront them directly.

Busy with preparations for a robust backup plan to ascend to Godhood lately, she hadn't had time to pay attention to Lin Tianming.

But he was still on her mind.

"I wonder how Little Brother Tianming is doing… Even Jiang Han, my good friend, was surprised when I asked about his wellbeing. What would she think if she knew I still harbored feelings for her precious student?"

As she scrolled through various videos showcasing Lin Tianming's stunning performance in the competitions, Tianshui murmured to herself.

Suddenly, the video froze, and Tianshui thought it was a slow internet connection and was about to refresh when she received a video call request.

And the few words that appeared on her screen left her stunned, her beautiful eyes suddenly sparkling with life.

Little Brother Tianming has initiated a video call with you!

Without thinking, she immediately connected to Lin Tianming's video call.

The next moment, the face of the handsome young man she had missed for so long appeared before her.

"Little Brother Tianming!"

Her gentle-as-water face and voice also made Lin Tianming feel warm.

"Teacher Tianshui, long time no see!"

"Long time no see, Brother Tianming. How are your injuries? Are you feeling better?"

Although she was happy to see Lin Tianming, Tianshui hadn't forgotten that she'd been waiting for news of his safety.

To put Tianshui at ease, Lin Tianming replied, "It's nothing serious; I'm as lively as a dragon now, Teacher Tianshui!"

"That's good to hear. But you scared me with yesterday's battle. Remember to use the Heavenly Dragon Breath technique I taught you one more time after the battle ends next time. It will help you recover the excessive physical exertion and prevent you from fainting on the spot, worrying everyone around you!"

Listening to Teacher Tianshui's admonition, Lin Tianming responded, "Yes, I will. This time I didn't expect to fall asleep so suddenly. It was an accident. I'm sorry, Teacher Tianshui, for making you worry all the way in Jiuzhou."

Honestly, if he had known it would scare the gentle-as-water Tianshui like that, he would have kept his nerves tight yesterday.

Compared to others, he didn't want this emotionally sensitive, always gentle-as-water Teacher Tianshui to worry about him.

"Silly Brother, why are you apologizing for being injured? Just recover well. You haven't completely healed yet, have you? Do you need to rest quietly for a bit?"

Teacher Tianshui, being the top healer as the Goddess Reincarnator, could tell his physical condition at a glance, even through the phone.

Seeing that she was so clear about it, Lin Tianming didn't conceal it.

"Just a bit weak after waking up. I should be fine after a day's rest."

Hearing Lin Tianming's acknowledgment, Tianshui sighed.

"If I were by your side, I could help you recover instantly. Others just don't have the same healing abilities."

Not wanting Teacher Tianshui to keep worrying about his health, Lin Tianming timely changed the subject.

"Speaking of which, Teacher Tianshui, how have you been recently? Have you managed to break through to become a Top Awakened?"

When their conversation shifted to her matters, the long-unseen Tianshui also revealed a joyful smile and shared her experiences with Lin Tianming.

"Little Brother Tianming, I've been doing quite well. After you returned to Imperial City from the Sea Emperor Festival, I attempted to assimilate the opportunities you brought from the festival, and I successfully broke through to become a Top Awakened!

Moreover, I've recently found quite a few great opportunities myself and have already touched the threshold of Godhood.

Over the past month, I have been preparing various contingencies for becoming a God. Once I'm confident enough, I will choose to ascend!

Speaking of which, I owe you a lot, Brother Tianming. Otherwise, my recent progression wouldn't have been so smooth!"

After seriously listening to Teacher Tianshui's experiences over the past period, Lin Tianming felt sincerely happy for her.

He hadn't expected her to touch upon the threshold of Godhood so quickly!

Is this the advantage of being a Goddess Reincarnator?

However, upon hearing Tianshui talk about preparing her backup plan for godhood, he frowned slightly.

"Teacher Tianshui, are you planning to ascend to Godhood in the near future?"

"Yes, I'm considering giving it a try. If all goes well, I will attempt to challenge the Divine Position in as short as one month or as long as three!"

Sharing such joyous news of Godhood, Tianshui was more than willing to share her joy with Lin Tianming.

Hearing her true intentions to ascend soon, Lin Tianming was a bit worried about her.

Except for Jiang Han, who was killed by the original soul, all Goddess Reincarnators ascended during the Age of Gods' Descent.

Ascending in an era where it was impossible to become a God was not something anyone could achieve.

Hesitating for a moment, Lin Tianming still reminded the overjoyed Tianshui.

"Teacher Tianshui, are you sure you don't want to prepare for a bit longer? Throughout the history of global Awakeners, no one has ever attained godhood, all top talents failing at the last step of ascension."

Upon hearing this, Tianshui blinked slightly.

After a moment, her beautiful eyes stared intently at Lin Tianming on her phone screen.

"Little Brother Tianming, are you worried about me?"

"Yes, Teacher Tianshui, you are both a teacher and sister to me; I don't want anything bad to happen to you."

Lin Tianming didn't avoid Tianshui's question, his gaze equally serious.

Reassured by Lin Tianming's affirmation, Tianshui revealed a gratified and warm smile.

"Don't worry, Little Brother Tianming, your Teacher Tianshui promises you, although ascending to godhood is dangerous, I will definitely not fall like that. After all, I have someone worthy of my remembrance waiting for me!"

The person she deemed worthy of remembrance was naturally Lin Tianming.

Lin Tianming realized that Tianshui was most likely going to choose to ascend soon, rather than in the Age of Gods' Descent when the opportunity actually arrives.

Pondering for a moment, not wanting her to encounter any mishaps, he looked deeply and seriously into her eyes.

"Teacher Tianshui, before you attempt godhood, could you let me know? I'm a bit worried about you and would like to be there to witness your ascension, so that I can be at ease!"

Hearing Lin Tianming's concerned words, the tender affection in Tianshui's eyes deepened even further.

"Of course, once I am fully prepared with all my contingencies for godhood, to assure Little Brother Tianming, I will definitely inform you first to come and witness my path to godhood!"
