"Really?" Wang Mu gently placed his hand on Miss You's thigh. Miss You's legs were beautiful—plump and slender. The hem of her skirt traced a straight arc, pleasing to the eye. If touched, they must be exceedingly beautiful… However, when Wang Mu touched them, even through the fabric of her dress, he felt a fine roughness, not like the mutton-fat jade-like skin that should have been there, but…

Miss You suddenly shifted her body a few meters to the side, pressing her feet to the other side. Her complexion was slightly pale as she gently bit her lip. "Brother Mu, what are you doing… can't you just sit properly and talk to me?"

"You should know that's not what I mean," said Wang Mu. "Don't you want to talk to me about your situation? What exactly happened with Immortal Bi You?"

"If you really won't tell me, then I'm leaving."

Having said that, Wang Mu was about to stand up, but Miss You grabbed his hand before he could step away.

"I'll talk… Isn't that enough?"

Miss You stopped Wang Mu, her expression somewhat evasive, as if she didn't want him to know.

Wang Mu sat back down, quietly waiting for her to open her heart. He was actually quite curious about what exactly was going on with Nanrong Biyou.

"Brother Mu, you should know, the Cultivation Technique I practice is the sacred technique of my Wa Clan, the Heavenly Snake Nine Transformations…" Nanrong Biyou spoke in a low voice.

Wang Mu nodded. Of course, he knew.

In the game, Nanrong Biyou's combat power was actually quite strong. She didn't participate in the final battle because she had activated a Wa Clan Secret Technique and used the Emperor Spirit Pearl, which significantly boosted her strength. But that doesn't mean she was weak. In fact, in the game, her combat power ranked within the top five among the protagonist's many companions.

As for this Cultivation Technique, it was said to have been passed down through generations in the Wa Clan. In Nanrong Biyou's generation, she possessed the highest Talent. Previous Holy Daughters of the Wa Clan could only cultivate up to the Third Transformation before reaching their limit. But Nanrong Biyou, with her intelligence and pure Bloodline, managed to cultivate up to the Seventh Transformation. This far surpassed many Holy Daughters of past Wa Clan generations. Each Transformation could exponentially increase her power. This technique also had its limitations. The protagonist couldn't cultivate it. Otherwise, if the protagonist practiced it, it would be utterly heaven-defying. It was restricted to Nanrong Biyou alone.

"After the great changes in heaven and earth, the Spiritual Energy in the world began to revive through the Gate of Apocalypse…"

"The world underwent tremendous turmoil and change…"

"At that time, I was in the Wa Clan Sacred Land praying… for you…" Miss You glanced bitterly at Wang Mu. "But I waited for many years without success. It wasn't until I left that I learned you were no longer there. I returned to the Wa Clan Sacred Land, intending to seek death, but then a white-haired girl persuaded me."

"She said you were just gone, perhaps not dead, and asked me to cultivate in peace…"

"She comforted me for a long time, and I believed her. Later, after hearing from her about your experiences, I felt a mix of resentment, anger, and helplessness…"

Wang Mu's heart stirred. A white-haired girl? Could it be An Qixiu?

"After separating from her, I returned to the Wa Clan Sacred Land and cultivated in seclusion," Miss You continued. "Eventually, as I advanced through stages of Cultivation, my blood boiled, and my whole body underwent huge changes…"

"My body was no longer human-shaped…" As she spoke, Miss You's voice trembled slightly, clearly frightened by the memory. She leaned in and hugged Wang Mu's waist.

Wang Mu gently patted Miss You's shoulder. "I've heard your Wa Clan possesses a very ancient Bloodline; that must be the reason…" This huge change was likely not an ordinary one.

Miss You nodded lightly. "I was terrified at the time, but I still continued to practice the Heavenly Snake Nine Transformations…"

"Until I reached the Ninth Transformation… I sensed an ancestral will deep within… At that moment, I was visualizing a Dharma Image. All I could see was a colossal figure, as vast as mountains, looming in my mind."

"She told me she was the Wa God, the ancestor of the Wa Clan. They bore the responsibility of supporting the heavens and the earth. Now that the world was restored anew, I needed to take up the Wa Clan's duty: to protect peace in a part of the world and cultivate the Righteous path. Only then might I eventually achieve Ascension and have my merits Fulfilled…"

Wang Mu mused. This world indeed had very ancient deities before. The opening of the Gate of Apocalypse was merely an omen. Dongfang Mu was the one destined to open this great gate; after doing so, he simply disappeared… But here I am, having crossed into this place… Hmm… there must be another mystery to this.

"Later, I worked hard on my Cultivation. The Wa God said that once my merits were Fulfilled and I Ascended, everything would go as I wished. However, this responsibility came with a heavenly curse. The further I progressed, the more difficult Cultivation became, plagued by numerous Heart Demons. Eventually, I would have to revert to the Wa Clan's original form and would be required to cultivate in that form to proceed."

"And the Emperor Spirit Pearl is the Wa God's safeguard for our clan, capable of temporarily concealing this curse…"

"But the Emperor Spirit Pearl is only temporary. The curse is ultimately difficult to erase… Only through Ascension can this curse be completely broken."

Miss You sighed softly as she said this. "Without the Emperor Spirit Pearl, the curse grows stronger day by day, and my Life Span is difficult to sustain. Even now that I have it, achieving Ascension will likely be very difficult."

"This millennia-old curse intensifies with each bit my Cultivation improves…"

Wang Mu was deeply shocked.

"After so many years of Cultivation, the responsibility the Wa God bestowed upon me has become inconsequential to me, with this curse upon me." Miss You looked at Wang Mu. "I just wanted to hold on, to see if, as she said, I could wait for you to appear again…"
