“Without waiting for Ye Wanyuan to ponder, the scene shifts once again, revealing a grand and solemn palace before her eyes.
‘Wuyou, you, along with the members of the Fearless Alliance, shall also proceed.’
‘But, Grandfather…’
‘What’s this? You’re not even listening to your grandfather’s words now?’
‘Wuyou wouldn’t dare.’
After a conversation with her grandfather, the scene switches again.
To her surprise, Ye Wanyuan finds herself in a place she recognizes well – the headquarters of the Asura organization.
It seems they are in the midst of launching an attack on Asura, with chaotic sounds filling the air.
Drawing connections from her earlier conversation with her grandfather, Ye Wanyuan realizes that she assisted the Martial Arts Alliance in attacking the Sin Domain under her grandfather’s orders.
Yet, she herself didn’t seem eager to participate in this Martial Arts Alliance operation, compelled by her grandfather’s command.
She recalls four years ago when the Fearless Alliance joined the mission to conquer the Prison of Sins. As the leader of the Fearless Alliance, she led her subordinates to the forefront, launching the attack against Asura.
Due to the slow progress of the attack, she infiltrated the Asura headquarters alone, attempting to steal their battle plans.
At this point in her recollection, Ye Wanyuan felt an inexplicable excitement.
Asura!
Finally, a connection to Jiuyue (Nine) emerges in her memories!
How did she and Jiuyue come to know each other?
Could it be that they only met through conflict?
One more notable detail: She remembers her previous two instances of hypnosis as being heavy, obscure, and dim in memory. However, this time is different. The images before her are vivid and bright, causing her heart to skip a beat.
Like something precious and beautiful that had been carefully stored away, being gently unveiled.
She leaps onto the eaves, nimbly moving about, and finds herself in a deserted courtyard behind the headquarters, a place seemingly reserved for imprisoning those who violated Asura’s laws.
Her excitement heightens – isn’t this the same place that Si Yehan brought her to detoxify?
Back then, she found it strangely familiar.
She speculates that this might be the place where she first encountered Si Yehan!
Joyfully reminiscing, Ye Wanyuan’s elation is cut short in the next moment.
With a dull thud, she falls into an Asura trap.
Instantly, mechanisms are triggered, launching countless blades toward her, causing her thighs and abdomen to be wounded.
Although she’s in a hypnotic state, unable to feel pain, she can still imagine the peril of nearly being turned into a hedgehog by those blades.
Ye Wanyuan almost wants to return these memories to the old headmaster – why do her recollections have to be so heart-wrenching?
Ducking and dodging, Ye Wanyuan finally manages to escape the mechanism, but not without numerous injuries.
The sky is darkening, and in her panic, she stumbles into a courtyard.
The moment she steps into the courtyard, she finds it deserted.
It’s winter now, and the first snow of the season blankets Independent State. Under the moonlight, the once desolate courtyard becomes exceptionally beautiful with its silver coating.
And right now, Ye Wanyuan sees a man standing by the lakeside, wearing a thin coat.
Hearing Ye Wanyuan’s footsteps, the man slowly turns around, gazing at her…
With just a single glance, Ye Wanyuan freezes, forgetting even her own pain.
In this moment.
Between the moonlight and the snow.
He is a third kind of extraordinary…”
