"..." the woman uttered.

What a fool... to only leave now... what took her so long... she muttered under her breath as she watched You Ruhua in the scene. Back then, you must have also had the thought of testing him, right? Thinking that after a few years, he must have forgotten about you... You wanted to test him, didn't you? What a silly woman...

At this, the woman let out a long sigh.

A thousand years of cultivation, all sorts of trials, seemed like a dream.

Only the events of that year seemed as clear as yesterday.

「The scene shifted.」

She not only knew what happened later but had also witnessed it.

She saw the man in the scene gradually recover after being nurtured for many days within the clan.

Elder Qian Ye tried to make things difficult for him. However, Wang Mu produced ample evidence proving his unique identity. He was revealed to be a minion of the Demon Sect Piaomiao Palace from the outside world, seeking to obtain the Wa Clan's Holy Artifact, the Emperor Spirit Pearl.

This object was said to contain the power of an Ancient Immortal and possessed immense strength.

In the following scenes, after Wang Mu healed his injuries in the Holy Land and eliminated the Wa Clan traitors, the Clan Leader personally handed the Emperor Spirit Clan to the Holy Daughter You Ruhua.

「That day.」

"Brother Mu, I'm so ugly, why did you come looking for me?" You Ruhua said quietly as she touched the Emperor Spirit Pearl. "I thought you had long forgotten about me."

Wang Mu thought for a moment and said, "Actually, over these years, I've seen quite a few beautiful women."

Hearing this, You Ruhua huffed and turned her head away.

"But some had hearts like snakes and scorpions, some were skilled in flattery and deception, and some were cold and emotionless..." Wang Mu continued, "I don't know how bad they were. However, in my heart, whenever I saw them, I thought of the woman who shared hardships with me in the ice cave and the dungeon. Whenever I remembered that time, I felt so fortunate. If it hadn't been for you back then, I surely wouldn't have survived. Miss You, your appearance may not compare with theirs, but in my heart, you are far more beautiful than any of them."

You Ruhua turned around, her eyes watery.

"Hmph, I'm not ugly!" You Ruhua held onto the Emperor Spirit Pearl. "Actually, I'm quite beautiful! Look..."

As she spoke, the Holy Artifact, the Emperor Spirit Pearl, emitted waves of powerful energy that converged around her.

The next second, all the scars on her face disappeared, revealing skin as exquisite and fragrant as divine jade, and a delicate and beautiful face, seemingly capable of toppling cities, was revealed.

Her aura also changed subtly, presenting a dreamy and hazy beauty, making it difficult to look away.

"Miss You, you..." Wang Mu was taken aback.

"I'm not called Miss You..."

"My name is Nanrong Biyou..."

Nanrong Biyou pursed her lips and smiled. "Hee... Brother Mu, surprised? Our clan's Holy Daughters are born under a curse. This curse can only be lifted by this Emperor Spirit Pearl, but the pearl can only be used after becoming the Clan Leader. Thanks to you, the trials you went through allowed the Clan Leader to give the Emperor Spirit Clan to me."

"Is there such a thing?" Wang Mu exclaimed in surprise.

"Yes. It's said that the original Holy Daughter of our Wa Clan was so beautiful that she was deceived by an outsider, leading to her demise. So she cast a curse that each generation's Holy Daughter would be incomparably ugly," Nanrong Biyou explained. "Only after overcoming hardships and becoming the Clan Leader can one restore their appearance with the Emperor Spirit Pearl."

Wang Mu suddenly understood.

"Brother Mu, let's go. Remember, this is what I look like..."

Nanrong Biyou's eyes trembled slightly as she quickly pecked Wang Mu's cheek again.

Wang Mu touched his cheek, feeling it was all so real...

"How shameless!"

In a certain space, the woman cursed, lightly covering her mouth, her cheeks slightly red.

She seemed to be one with the Nanrong Biyou in that scene.

That was her physical body; at this moment, her Primordial Spirit was observing this scene, separate from the Three-Life Illusion Realm.

She watched as the two of them walked out of the Holy Land together, and her fluctuating emotions slowly calmed down.

In the scenes that followed, she watched in silence, seemingly aware of what was about to happen, her gaze intensifying.

Soon, it will come to that moment, right?

I want to see how you, bastard, dared to just disappear like that...

「The scene shifted.」

After leaving the Holy Land, several months passed.

The Great Demon Piao Miaoxu swept through Jianghu, seemingly striving to dominate the martial arts world. This caused the entire Jianghu to be in turmoil, as if frying in hot oil and boiling tumultuously...

Accompanying Wang Mu, Nanrong Biyou defeated many experts. During the journey, she made a few companions. However, for some reason, she seemed unable to see them clearly, as if a force shrouded her sight.

「In that space.」

What karma is there to conceal... At this time, there should also be a few women with him, right? the woman scoffed. When I had just left the Holy Land, I was deeply affectionate with him. Coupled with the continuous battles and tense nerves, I never had the chance to ask. It wasn't until you disappeared and the world underwent great changes that I realized they were all your confidantes... Speaking so nicely with your mouth...

At this thought, her Primordial Spirit seemed to flare up with raging anger...

They fought all the way to the lair of the Great Demon Piao Miaoxu, the Piaomiao Heavenly Palace.

An unparalleled power hung in the sky.

Something terrifying seemed about to descend from there, making Wang Mu and his companions feel a tremendous pressure, as if their very life force was being suppressed.

How strong could this Great Demon Piao Miaoxu possibly be?

At that moment, Nanrong Biyou found Wang Mu alone and whispered, "Brother Mu, Piao Miaoxu is so incredibly strong... and we're in his main stronghold. My current strength is far inferior to yours. If I go in, I'm afraid I won't be of any help to you; on the contrary, I'll only hold you back."
