The Silverwing Warrior's sister has awakened! What did you do to me?

That voice was very soft.

Like a kitten's paw, lightly scratching.

Lin Yuan's movements paused slightly.

He turned his head.

In the co-pilot seat, the silver-haired girl who had been in a deep sleep had long eyelashes that were trembling slightly.

It seemed she was about to wake up.

Lin Yuan's eyebrows twitched slightly.

A little faster than expected.

It seemed the efficacy of the nine-turn soul-returning pill was even more domineering than he had imagined.

Or perhaps, this woman named Avrora had a sufficiently tenacious vitality.

After being raised as "reserve food" for three years, with her Soul Origin almost drained dry, she could actually wake up so quickly.

It could be considered a minor miracle.

Lin Yuan did not speak.

He just watched quietly, wanting to see how this Iceberg Goddess's sister would react upon waking.

A few seconds later.

Those tightly closed eyes slowly opened a crack.

A trace of dazed, ice-blue light peeked through.

Avrora's consciousness was still in a state of Chaos.

She felt as if she had a very, very long nightmare.

In the dream, she was trapped in a cold, dark place filled with despair and viscous malice.

A faceless monster was constantly devouring her power, her life, her Soul... That feeling was ten thousand times more terrifying than death!

She thought she would sink forever into that boundless despair.

Until... a golden light illuminated the entire dark world.

Warmth.

Vastness.

Filled with an indescribable, majestic vitality.

Like... a mother's embrace.

Then, she knew nothing more.

"Am I... dead?"

She muttered to herself subconsciously.

Her voice was dry and raspy.

But then, she froze.

No!

She could speak!

She could even... feel her own body!

Although still a bit weak, that feeling of power and vitality was so real!

She suddenly widened her eyes!

What met her eyes was no longer that twisted, gloomy cage of despair.

Instead, it was a bright cockpit filled with a sense of futuristic technology.

She was sitting in a soft and comfortable seat.

She was even wearing a seatbelt.

Where is this?

Avrora's mind went blank.

She slowly turned her somewhat stiff neck and looked to the other side of the cockpit.

And then.

She saw a man.

A young man she had never seen before.

He was wearing a simple combat uniform, leaning casually in the pilot's seat.

His profile was sharp and well-defined.

His expression was as calm as a bottomless ancient well.

He seemed to have noticed her gaze.

The man slowly turned his head.

Their eyes met.

The moment she saw those calm and deep eyes.

Avrora's heart skipped a beat without warning!

She felt as if she wasn't looking at a human.

But rather looking up at a boundless starry sky, vaster than the Sea of Annihilation and deeper than the Gui Xu Forbidden Zone!

Ancient, supreme, and unfathomable!

It was him!

It was definitely him!

In an instant, the golden light that tore through the darkness before her consciousness sank flashed through Avrora's mind!

This man had saved her!

In an instant.

The ecstasy of surviving a disaster and heartfelt gratitude surged into her heart like a tide.

Her lips trembled slightly.

She wanted to say thank you.

But just then.

She suddenly felt the majestic and vast golden warm current still flowing in her body.

And... within that warm current, a trace of unfamiliar power filled with aggression and a domineering aura was mixed in!

That power had already deeply Fusion with her Soul and her life Origin!

You are in me, and I am in you... they could no longer be separated!

This... this is... Avrora's face turned red in an instant!

Red from the base of her ears all the way to her neck!

Her ice-blue eyes, which should have been clear and pure, were instantly filled with shock, shame, and... a strong, indescribable panic!

"You... you..."

She pointed at Lin Yuan, her voice trembling, her pretty face which had just regained some color now so red it looked like it might bleed.

"What did you... do to me?!"

"..."

The calm expression on Lin Yuan's face finally showed a crack.

He looked at this woman whose brain was clearly not wired normally and, for a moment, didn't know what to say.

What did I do?

I saved your life, lady!

What kind of nonsense are you thinking about in your head?!

He now somewhat understood why Agatha was that kind of unchanging iceberg personality.

With a sister like this, anyone would have a headache.

"I fed you a jellybean."

Lin Yuan was silent for a while.

Finally, he decided to use the simplest way to explain it.

"A jellybean?"

Avrora was stunned.

She clearly didn't expect to get such an incredibly absurd answer.

What kind of jellybean could have such a domineering effect?

What kind of jellybean could forcibly fuse the Soul Origin of a dying person?

Instinctively, she didn't believe it.

She wanted to argue.

But looking at Lin Yuan's matter-of-fact expression, which even carried a hint of "you're making a fuss over nothing."

All the words at the tip of her tongue were stuck in her throat.

Could it be... that he was telling the truth?

Avrora's mind became even more confused.

She subconsciously wanted to mobilize the power within her body to carefully investigate the source of that power.

However.

Buzz—

The moment her thoughts stirred.

A terrifying power, more than ten times stronger than her peak state, erupted from her Dantian and Qi Sea!

The entire light chaser shook violently because of it!

[Warning! Warning! Ultra-high intensity energy reaction detected! Energy Level: Peak of the Origin Gathering Realm!]

[Warning! Hull structural stability is decreasing! Please stop energy release immediately!]

The piercing alarm echoed frantically inside the cockpit!

Avrora was completely dumbfounded.

She stared blankly at her own hands.

Feeling the power within her body that seemed capable of destroying heaven and earth, a power so strong it felt unfamiliar even to her.

Peak of the Origin Gathering Realm?!

She... Breakthrough?

No, it wasn't just a Breakthrough.

This was... a single step to heaven!

She had ventured into the Sea of Annihilation to cultivate for three years, surviving narrow escapes, and had only just touched the threshold of the Juyuan Realm.

And now... just because of a "jellybean"?

She directly soared to the Peak of the Origin Gathering Realm?!

What the hell... kind of divine jellybean is this?!

Avrora's worldview was completely and ruthlessly crushed.

Her delicate little face turned red and then white, her expression incredibly vivid.

Lin Yuan looked at her as if she had seen a ghost and shook his head somewhat helplessly.

It seemed... it wouldn't be explained clearly anytime soon.

He simply stopped paying attention to her and turned his gaze back to the star map ahead.

Demon Suppressing Pass was already right before his eyes.

And just then.

"Beep— Beep— Beep—"

A communication request connected to the light chaser's communication channel.

Lin Yuan took a look.

The initiator was Agatha Romanov.

He casually connected the call.

Buzz.

A holographic projection appeared in the center of the cockpit.

Agatha's figure appeared, dressed in a pure white military uniform, standing tall and straight with a cold temperament.

There was a trace of subtle anxiety and anticipation on her face.

Your Excellency Lin Yuan, you..."

Her words had just left her mouth.

When she saw the silver-haired girl sitting in the co-pilot seat, currently in a state of petrification.

Agatha's voice came to an abrupt halt.

Her unchanging ice-blue eyes contracted violently!
