708: A hundred years before the return, the couple were reborn

In this World, Martial Arts powerhouses can shatter galaxies and cleave Xingchen with their swords!

The world's righteous and evil factions constantly clashed, their war never ceasing.

Five Spirits Continent.

This was the land where righteous Immortal Cultivation practitioners gathered, home to countless Immortal Sects and Daoist Schools, a place countless ordinary people yearned for.

Yet, above these countless righteous Sects, there was an Imperial Dynasty, towering over everything!

At this moment.

Phoenix Feather Dynasty.

The strongest power in the Five Spirits Continent.

Within the majestic complex of the imperial palace, in the magnificent main hall adorned with golden patterns, a woman draped in a crimson-gold phoenix feather robe was sprawled on the ground, looking somewhat disheveled.

Her black hair was scattered, and a noticeable trail of blood hung from the corner of her mouth.

The woman was very beautiful.

Beneath her black hair, her fair forehead was marked with a solemn vermilion pattern.

Even in such a state of distress, her lightly made-up brows and eyes still revealed a captivating imperial might!

Beneath her proud nose, a vermilion mouth further highlighted the woman's assertiveness.

When the woman's features came together, there was an even stronger sense of cold arrogance and aloofness, like a banished Immortal from the heavens.

Beautiful she was, but she was more like a snow lotus on an iceberg, inspiring awe and fear!

An ordinary person's first glance would surely be so intimidated that they wouldn't dare to look a second time.

And those familiar with this woman's existence also didn't dare to approach her too closely.

"Cough, cough~" The woman coughed up some bloody froth.

Her injuries weren't inflicted by someone else; she had caused them herself.

Regarding the appearance of her injuries, the woman not only didn't feel much discomfort but was instead in high spirits!

"I succeeded! I, the Empress, have successfully been reborn!" The woman looked at the layout of the hall, her heart filled with rare joy.

Her name was Kongtong Frost Snow, and she was the strongest expert in the entire Five Spirits Continent!

In her previous life, because the Demon Path colluded with some righteous Sects from the Five Spirits Continent, they jointly attacked her Phoenix Feather Dynasty.

Surrounded by numerous powerhouses, no matter how strong Kongtong Frost Snow was, she had no room to resist!

At the final moment, it was her Husband who sacrificed himself, buying her time so she could summon the power of the entire Phoenix Feather Dynasty's national destiny, using a mutually destructive method to annihilate everyone from both the righteous and Evil Paths!

It was also at the last moment that Kongtong Frost Snow comprehended time, allowing her Soul to travel back a hundred years!

Looking at the familiar layout around the palace, the woman's face was calm, but waves of excitement surged in her heart.

In this life, she would not let the regrets of her previous life repeat themselves.

Especially A Man who died for her... her Husband.

"Your Majesty, the phoenix carriage for the Dan Sect is ready." From outside the door, the shrill voice of the Eunuch, unaware of the situation inside the hall, drifted in.

Hearing the Eunuch's voice, Kongtong Frost Snow's eyes held a hint of nostalgia.

Dan Sect.

If she remembered correctly, today was also the first time she met that A Man.

Five Spirits Continent.

Among them, the five major Sects held sway over the mainstream secular Immortal Cultivation practitioners.

And outside these five major Sects, there were also several other significant large Sects that couldn't be ignored.

Dan Sect.

Was one of them.

Today was the Dan Sect's decennial Dan Sect Saint Child competition.

Unlike other Sects.

The competition for the Dan Sect Saint Child didn't involve bloodshed; it tested everyone's Alchemy skills.

At this moment, within the entire Dan Sect.

On the vast bluestone ground, Alchemy furnaces had already been set up one by one, and the medicinal ingredients beside them were also prepared.

There were more than twenty people participating in the Holy Son competition at this moment.

These people were all outstanding young members of their respective fields.

Among the more than twenty people, a slender young man with a decent appearance was in a daze, leaning on the long table in front of him where spiritual plants for Alchemy were placed.

A full half an incense stick's worth of time passed.

The young man finally snapped back to reality in a trance.

"Didn't I... die?" Muttering to himself, Lin Yun looked at his hands.

His hands were fair and clean, completely unlike the withered state they were in from years of dealing with medicinal ingredients.

"Ding~ The Ye Tian brand Live Your True Self System has brought the Host's Soul from the moment of death a hundred years later to a hundred years ago."

"This System aims to help the Host live their true self and create a brilliant life.

Does the Host wish to activate and bind the System?"

In his mind, this unbelievable voice sounded.

And upon hearing this, Lin Yun finally roughly understood why he was alive and had traveled back a hundred years!

It was because the existence in his mind called the System had brought him here!

"Living another life..." Muttering, Lin Yun's thoughts couldn't help but drift back to his previous life.

In his previous life, his life could be entirely summarized with the word 'miserable'.

He still remembered.

In his previous life, he had married into the family of the Phoenix Feather Dynasty Empress, Kongtong Frost Snow, a woman countless people yearned for and desired!

This drew the jealousy and anger of countless A Man in the Five Spirits Continent, even causing them to harbor murderous intent towards him.

However.

This marriage, which countless people yearned for, was for Lin Yun, the beginning of all suffering!

The hundred years he was married to that woman.

She always maintained a high and mighty attitude and never had any contact with him throughout those hundred years!

No matter how much Lin Yun humbled himself, he couldn't earn a smile from her, let alone equal treatment.

In that woman's eyes, he was just a tool used to deceive the world, to shut up the ministers who urged her to marry.

After Lin Yun married into the family and became that woman's Husband, his only experience was wasting a hundred years, like being imprisoned in a heavenly dungeon, where even breathing was difficult!

Until the end of his life.

In front of both the righteous and Evil Paths, he sacrificed himself!

He used his life to buy Kongtong Frost Snow some time.

Only then, at the moment of his death, did Lin Yun see a single tear of emotion left by that woman.

"I used my entire life, yet could only exchange it for a single tear from you.

How could someone like me aspire to such aloofness?

It's best not to bother anymore from now on."

With a self-mocking smile, Lin Yun slowly raised his head to look around.

He now felt unbelievably fortunate, unbelievably grateful!

The System in his mind had brought him back a hundred years and helped him escape the sea of suffering, so he absolutely would not let the tragedy of his previous life repeat itself!

No matter what, he would absolutely never have any involvement with that woman in this life!

He wanted to live his true self, to live freely!

"Ding~ Congratulations Host, binding mechanism triggered.

System binding in progress."

"1%"

"100%"

"Ding~ Congratulations Host, successfully bound the Ye Tian brand Live Your True Self System.

The newbie gift package has been issued.

Host, please check."

In his mind, after the series of sounds from the so-called System finished, a strange light screen suddenly appeared before Lin Yun's eyes.

And within the light screen, there was also a brightly shining gift package.

"Lin Yun! The assessment has already begun, hurry up!" The examiner, who was among the more than twenty people, noticed Lin Yun still spacing out in front of the spiritual plants.

He couldn't help but urge him with a hint of dissatisfaction.

Hearing the examiner's urging, Lin Yun withdrew his thoughts.

Looking at the spiritual plants on the long table and the assessment question written on the stone tablet in the distance, his hazy memories slowly became clear at the same time.

Was this the Holy Son competition assessment?

If he remembered correctly, that year he had stood out from everyone, replaced the previous Holy Son, and became the new Dan Sect Saint Child!

It was precisely because of such an outstanding performance that he attracted the attention of Kongtong Frost Snow, who had come to the Dan Sect to discuss cooperation matters with the Sect Leader.
