Changing the Trajectory of Fate

“Dead?”

After Yan Hui and the others came to their senses and saw that Yan Long and the others had vanished, their eyes nearly split with rage.

Yan Long’s several wives were also stunned, including Su Muyu.

Su Muyu’s body trembled slightly, her mind recalling how not long ago, Yan Long had said he would do his best to make it up to her and their son. But… what had happened?

In the blink of an eye, such a thing had occurred.

Fairy Yunxia and the others were equally and incomparably surprised. Even they hadn’t reacted in time.

Who could have imagined that someone from the Yan family’s own ranks would use some sort of self-detonation technique at such a moment?

“Despicable.”

Fairy Yunxia immediately looked towards a certain place in the city, her gaze locking onto the wildly laughing Lin Xiong.

One didn’t need to think much to know who was behind it.

King Jiang’s face was incomparably ugly. His original intention was to quell the dispute, but this Lin family truly had no regard for him as a king, daring to use such陰謀詭計 even under these circumstances.

“Lin Xiong, you have some nerve! Do you still have this king in your eyes?”

King Jiang waved his hand. Lin Xiong, who was still laughing wildly in the distance, was restrained by a force and forced to fly towards King Jiang’s position.

Lin Xiong was also startled.

“Gr-Great King, what… what is the meaning of this? Why have you suddenly seized me?”

Lin Xiong immediately began to feign ignorance.

“Still feigning ignorance? This king has warned your Lin family multiple times. This time, this king will not let you off lightly,” King Jiang roared.

But when Lin Xiong had prepared this move, he had already prepared to deny it to the death.

“Great King, I am wronged! I have not approached this area from beginning to end and have been watching the battle from afar. What does it have to do with me that someone from the Yan family suddenly self-detonated?” Lin Xiong argued cunningly.

King Jiang stared intently into Lin Xiong’s eyes, his brows tightly furrowed. He then threw Lin Xiong to the side.

“Immediately return to the Royal Capital and await my summons,” King Jiang commanded angrily.

After steadying himself, Lin Xiong put on an innocent and obedient facade, but as he turned, his face was filled with a sinister smile.

Although his series of operations had ultimately failed to destroy the Yan family, his goal had been achieved.

After driving Lin Xiong away, King Jiang immediately addressed Fairy Yunxia, “Fairy, I will surely give you an explanation for this matter. Please comfort the Yan family. This king will return first.”

Fairy Yunxia looked at the grieving Yan family members, let out a long sigh, and nodded at King Jiang.

Yan Yun descended from the sky in a daze, landing beside Su Muyu and the others.

“Why did it turn out like this? I was already careful and prepared enough, so why was I still one step behind?” Yan Yun gritted her teeth, clenched her fists, her voice low and suppressed as she questioned.

Jiang Yao looked at Yan Yun’s stiff expression and walked to her side, wanting to comfort her but not knowing what to say.

The crisis of the Yan and Jiang families was barely over, but Yan Long’s death had become the biggest twist in this crisis.

What Yan Yun and the others didn’t know was that at this moment, in a very unique space, a silver-haired, purple-eyed woman was sitting cross-legged.

The woman was dressed in white, with seven purple flowers floating around her.

Before her was a golden river, but what flowed in this river was not water, but segments of images.

Each segment of the river’s images had countless branches, and each branch was a different life trajectory.

The image the woman was currently watching was the scene of Yan Long being blown to death not long ago.

This segment of the image was just one branch.

“Ai! Heavenly Dao, oh Heavenly Dao, you’ve really gone to great lengths to stop me. But I’d like to see who will have the last laugh,” the purple-eyed woman sneered, then slowly closed her eyes. One of the purple flowers circling her body suddenly withered.

Immediately after, the withered flower turned into a streak of light and drilled into the river.

On the other side, Yan Yun and the others, still in a state of shock, found that the time and space they were in had suddenly stopped flowing once again.

And this stopping of time and space was completely different from when King Jiang had frozen the space.

The time where Yan Yun and the others were had truly and completely stopped at this moment, even their thoughts had ceased.

After time and space stopped, a crack opened in the space, and a purple-eyed woman in a white, flowing dress, exuding an immortal aura, stepped across time and space. Her gaze swept around, then locked onto Jiang Yao.

Seeing Jiang Yao, a gentle smile appeared on her face. She flew to Jiang Yao’s side, staring at her. Then, she suddenly pouted and went to kiss Jiang Yao’s cheek.

It was just that her expression held a strong sense of ruthlessness and greasiness.

But just as her lips were about to touch Jiang Yao’s, a thin golden thread shot out from the nearby Yan Yun’s body.

The thread, as if it had a will of its own, shot towards the mysterious woman.

The mysterious woman seemed unwilling to touch the thread and quickly dodged it.

After dodging, she complained with dissatisfaction.

“Tch, what’s wrong with a little kiss? So unwilling. Ai! What a pity, in the end, I still have to be the one to save the day. Wasted another Flower of the Great Dao. This time, it’ll take a bit more effort, or else I’m afraid I won’t be able to walk this path to the end.”

After speaking, the mysterious woman flew to the crater.

She stared at the crater for a while, seeming to be thinking about something.

“I’ve got it! Oh, old man, old man, let me give you a big surprise.”

The mysterious woman seemed to have thought of a mischievous idea. She smirked, then raised her hand towards the crater and released a profound power.

Countless purple runes emanated from her palm. These runes gathered all the residual blood and cell tissue from the explosion area.

In a short while, a body with no face and no gender characteristics was condensed.

The woman stared at this prototype of a body, her face full of a playful smile.

She reached out as if she were sculpting a character in a game and began to meticulously carve the body until it was fully formed, only then did she stop.

But when she stopped, a woman in her thirties, full of maternal grace, was floating in the air.

This woman looked a bit like Yan Yun’s eldest sister, Yan Xia, but was clearly more mature and had more charm.

“Mm, a husband, after all. If the gender is changed, then it should be a wife. Sure enough, I still prefer the ‘married woman’ type. This aesthetic of mine, ai!” the mysterious person said to herself with a chuckle.

After doing all this, she waved her hand again, and a large amount of white fluorescence seeped out from the void. These fluorescent lights gathered at one point, turning into a man’s soul.

A closer look revealed, wasn’t this Yan Long?

The soul had also been changed, so that he could adapt to this new body more quickly.

“This is a new body with perfect aptitude. It just requires a small price. Mm, this price is worth it,” the mysterious woman said to herself.

This woman was full of cynicism. How to put it, she was clearly exuding an immortal aura, but she always gave off an elfish and somewhat mischievous feeling.

Soon, Yan Long’s soul gradually merged into this brand-new body, then slowly descended into the crater.

After dealing with Yan Long, the mysterious woman came to Yan Yun’s side again, raised her hand, and pulled Yan Lingyun’s soul out of the Heavenly Tome.

“Ai! How can you be so weak? I’ll be a good person to the end and see you all the way.” As she spoke, the mysterious woman raised her hand and touched her own glabella, drawing out a special energy from herself and injecting it into Yan Lingyun’s body.

Yan Lingyun’s originally illusory soul body instantly became very solid.

Finally, there was the Heavenly Tome. The mysterious woman seemed to have tampered with the Heavenly Tome a bit as well.

After doing what needed to be done, she looked up at the sky. A huge eyeball was staring intently at her.

“What are you looking at? Sooner or later, I’ll gouge your eye out. All you can do now is glare. Who asked you to push me? I still have six chances to defy fate. I’d like to see how you can possibly stop me.”

After taunting the giant eyeball, the mysterious woman once again drilled into the space. She began to travel through different time periods, and in each period, she did something that infuriated the eyeball.

In an instant, the mysterious woman had interfered with the progress of countless timelines, and then she returned to Yan Yun’s side.

“Alright, it’s done. Big eyeball, we’ll see about this,” the mysterious woman said with a strange smile at the eye in the sky, then once again drilled into the crack in time and space, disappearing without a trace.

The moment she disappeared, this stilled time and space began to flow again.

As time and space flowed again, the Yan family members surrounding the crater were the first to see the beautiful woman in the purple dress lying in it.

“Eh? What’s going on? Why is there suddenly a woman in the crater? She wasn’t there just now, was she?” someone exclaimed.

This exclamation drew the gazes of Yan Yun and the others.

And the beautiful woman in the purple dress lying in the crater slowly opened her eyes.
