"Ninth, ask if the original body is willing to come back."

"Huh She didn't mention that."

“That’s why I let you ask her. She doesn’t want to be a bride for others anymore; she wants to live for herself. I’ve done everything I could for her before this, but as for living authentically, that’s something only she can do. After all, I am me and she is her. My way of life will definitely be different from hers.”

"But then she would have no chance to reincarnate. Perhaps this is also the reason why she didn't choose to come back after the Tasker's Counterattack."

"Tell her to do good deeds and exorcise evil spirits after she returns. Accumulate more merit, and she will naturally cultivate a good afterlife for herself. Besides, my soul has stayed in her body for so long, and it has also nourished her flesh in return. What is there for her to fear"

R ripples sat cross-legged by the floor-to-ceiling window, smiling.

"Got it! It's good that she wanted to know the real mastermind, so she didn't rush to reincarnate."

The stone mill immediately said.

Half an hour later, the ripple left the original body. A faint soul form brushed past her and returned to its own body.

The moment her ripples body pulled away, she felt a tearing force, followed by the horrified gasp of a stone mill:

"Wu Lianyi, the channel you returned through suddenly cut off. I urgently sent you into the next mission to prevent your soul from being damaged. Because it is random, you may not be able to contact me temporarily. Please make sure to survive."

Then ripples blinded him, and he was swept into a door that had just been opened. The portal immediately closed behind him.

The stone mill sat before the light screen, wiping sweat from its brow. It had never realized its own speed could be so fast, nor did it know if it was the tasker who was lucky, or itself.

If the tasker stays there until the original body dies of old age, then returning through the illusory passage will directly plunge them into a spatial storm, where they will be torn to shreds and their soul will be scattered.

Unfortunately, the Tasker left early and even convinced the original owner to go back to living their own life. When the transmission channel was destroyed halfway, he returned, giving him a chance to recover. Thankfully, he was quick-witted and shoved the ripple into an empty transmission channel, temporarily preserving her soul.

The stone mill steadied his heart and immediately began calling Director Cen. He had to report this matter.

"I don't know whether to say you're lucky, or she's lucky."

Director Cen sighed.

"I've already sent Wu Lianyi into the mission, but because she was randomly sent through the transmission channel temporarily, I don't know which plane she's in now. I need authorization from the director to track the whereabouts of missioners."

The stone mill scratched its head and said.

"Do you know, at the moment you transmitted, how many transmission channels were simultaneously opened and established"

Director Cen shook his head, then tapped his wristwatch, bringing up a light screen. He tapped three times, inputting a line of code, and granted Shiju access to the query.

"I know! So I told her, she must live well. Now she doesn't even know the details of the mission."

The stone mill was weeping, its face contorted with grief.

"So you need to find her quickly."

Director Cen said helplessly.

"Yes!"

The stone mill wiped his face and then opened the light screen in front of him, bringing up all the information about the transmission channels, and began to check them one by one.

The ripples were hurriedly transported into a new plane, and for a moment she was a little disoriented. She hadn't been placed in any body, which was a major blunder on the part of the Stone Mill. But she also understood that the situation must have been very urgent at the time, otherwise she wouldn't have been sent here temporarily.

In the air, Ripples Ancestor, whose soul hovered like ripples in the sky, cast her gaze around. She needed to find a suitable vessel quickly; otherwise, wandering about as a disembodied soul offered no protection and would be detrimental to her.

And right now, she still doesn't know the specific situation of this plane. If it's like the last one, with mages treating her as a ghost and taking her in, she would be dead innocent.

From within an ancient building on the lower slopes of the mountain, the sounds of clashing swords and cries filled the air. Half the structures were engulfed in flames, and bodies lay scattered across the ground.

A group of masked men in black are hacking to death everyone they see. Another group of unmasked people fight back and retreat, protecting a man and a woman in the center. Each of them holds a baby in their arms. The cries of the babies never cease amidst the constant sounds of slaughter.

"Yingying, let's go our separate ways."

The man held a long sword in his hand, blocking the woman's face. He turned to her and said,

"Fengze Ge, I'm afraid I can't protect the child!"

The woman called Yingying was in tears, holding her child tightly and sobbing.

"Ying Ying, listen carefully. We must save at least one of the two children. You take the secret passage, and I'll go through the back mountain. If we manage to escape the pursuit, we'll meet at Yongfeng Town."

But

"Go away! It's over!"

The man interrupted the woman's words, grabbed her wrist directly, and pushed her into the ancestral hall in the backyard. Then he led the rest of the people straight into the mountains behind, causing those masked assassins to chase after them as well.

But some of the masked men rushed into the ancestral hall. Unfortunately, there was no one inside.

"That woman clearly came in, there must be a secret passage here, search!"

As the masked leader gestured, the rest began to strike at everything, scattering the ancestral tablets within the hall. Finally, they moved one spirit tablet, accidentally revealing a stone door entrance beneath the altar.

"Chase!"

The masked men immediately rushed in, following the tunnel. After a while, they faintly heard the sound of a baby crying.

"Hurry up!"

The man shouted.

Yinyin held the baby in her arms, running non-stop with her legs. She had just gone through labor and was exhausted, ready to collapse at any moment. But she knew she couldn't give up. If she did, she wouldn't be able to get up again. For the sake of the child in her arms, she couldn't stop.

Finally, Yingying ran to the end of the dark passage. She held a child in one hand and groped along the stone wall with the other for a while. Then she pressed down on a stone, and a crack appeared at the end of the passage. Moonlight poured in, illuminating her path ahead.

The woman stumbled and rushed out, she could already hear the footsteps chasing after her.

Unfortunately, because of her long run and exhaustion, she didn't have time to dodge the sword that pierced her heart.

"Pfft!" A mouthful of fresh blood spurted out, and Yingying immediately fell to the ground. However, she still clutched the baby in her arms tightly.

"It's you!"

It's me!

A woman in a black dress, with a striking face, looked down at Yingying who was sprawled on the ground in disarray. Her eyes were filled with triumph.

"You madman! For Fengze, you dared to bring people to destroy my Yingshan Villa and kill everyone in it!"

Ying Ying said while spitting blood.

"I told you, Fengze is mine! But you actually took advantage of my absence to be together and even had two bastards. Do you think I'll let you live"

"Tsk! You're already married, why can't Fengze Ge get married!"

"Hmph! I said, he lives for me and dies for me! On the Yellow Springs Road, your entire family can be companions!"

The woman's words were followed by a sword thrust that pierced through Yingying's protecting embrace of the infant.child. Her gaze shifted and she saw a small crying baby by the side, with a card next to its feet. The card stated that the baby was born on the same day as her own daughter. The mother's column read...
