"Right now, it’s Li Yunxiao from the Evil Suppression Peak tracking her. Li Yunxiao wants to get the mysterious blood on her to break through to the Immortal Dao."

"But probably no need to worry. After she fused with the mysterious Dao mark, she has become almost like a ghost, nearly invincible on the same level, immune to all techniques..."

Xiang Yuntian said, "She should be looking for the old turtle too... Keep a close eye, if she’s in trouble, we’ll have to lend a hand."

"Owe the old turtle so much... might as well repay his master."

As he was about to leave, he couldn’t help but turn back to look at the Southern Sea, "Old turtle, where the hell did you die...?"

...

Three hundred years and the sky changed greatly.

It was enough to change too many things.

And at this moment.

The vast Southern Sea’s surface was a deep blue, with clear skies and gentle breezes, under the wide canopy of heaven.

Gentle waves moved with the wind, and a fish emitting immortal light leaped out of the water, expelling mist, when suddenly a Divine Bird in the sky quickly descended to capture this fish. The fish swiftly plunged back into the water, like a flash of lightning, diving quickly.

The Divine Bird dove into the water as well, like an arrow, tearing through the waves in pursuit of the fish. The fish continued to dive, the warm sea gradually turning icy, and eventually dove into a trench. The fish realized something was wrong and urgently tried to turn and escape, but found itself unable to move.

The chill rampaged, and even the Divine Bird descending from the sky was not spared.

Deep in the trench, there was... a sunken island.

The island was riddled with holes, looking like it was about to fragment.

With a swoosh, a beam of light flashed swiftly from the sunken island, dragging the frozen Immortal Fish and Divine Bird from the sea into a dark burial pit on the island.

"A bird and a fish, not bad, should be enough to eat..."

In the darkness, Li An gathered the prey, smiling with satisfaction.

"You slave, caught the prey, why aren’t you hurrying to cook it for me? What are you waiting for?"

A charming voice echoed from the darkness behind.

"Reporting to Madam, it’ll be ready soon."

Li An quickly skinned and cleaned the fish and bird, and with a thought, a flame appeared directly in his hand. The fish was skewered on a Tier Six flying sword for roasting, while the bird was placed in the Alchemy Furnace to cook, making a boiled whole chicken.

Before long, the roast fish and boiled chicken were ready, exuding a fragrant aroma. Li An brought them inside, placed them respectfully next to the bronze-horned golden coffin, and said, "Madam, it’s time to eat."

A slender hand draped over the edge of the coffin. The woman propped herself up, her head resting, her hair cascading down her shoulders. She wore not a stitch, and her appearance seemed to have greatly transformed.

When Li An first met her three hundred years ago, although her figure and features were of unmatched beauty, her face was ghastly pale and devoid of color. Now, her face had a rosy glow, incredibly charming, with gentle waves flowing in her eyes.

She looked no different from a living person.

"Feed me."

The woman spoke, and Li An obediently knelt before her, feeding her the roast fish. She took a few bites and shook her head, "Not good."

Li An said, "Madam, although this sea fish is fresh, you have eaten it for centuries, naturally, you are tired of it. If you could season it with some ginger, shallots, and salt, and pair it with some spices for roasting, it would be very delicious."

"Hmm."

Seeing her tone had changed somewhat, Li An said, "Madam, though your body already has vitality, it’s still not enough. You need more spiritual blood to nourish..."

"Hmm, feed me the bird."

Li An took the boiled chicken, tore off a leg, and fed it to the woman. She took a sniff and said, "This bird lacks a gamey flavor, not good, change it."

She then grabbed Li An towards the coffin.

For a long while after.

"You heartless slave, every word you say is about wanting to leave me and go to the outside world, how have I mistreated you?"

In the coffin, the woman said petulantly.

"Madam, I truly consider your welfare. If you want to truly be reborn, you must obtain enough spiritual blood..."

"Won’t it be good if the slave goes to the outside world, kills people, and gets blood for you?"

Li An said.

"Hmph, who knows what you this slave are thinking. If you want to go out, I’ll allow it, but there’s one thing you must agree to for me."

"Madam, just say the word."

"I’m pregnant."

"What?!"

Li An was shocked on the spot, how could a dead person get pregnant?

Isn’t this absurd?

Moreover, these years, though he had never been at peace day or night and had diligently served Lady Yi, he is of exotic essence, never once truly sharing his core essence, and now this dead woman claims she’s pregnant, isn’t she deceiving people?!

"You rascal, do you dare not take responsibility?!"

Lady Yi pinched Li An and said, "I am still a dead body now, I cannot let the child grow in my belly. I plan to have the fetus sustain itself in your Dantian, after all, it’s your child too, would you disagree?"

Li An was extremely vigilant in his heart, deeply aware of Lady Yi’s cunning and trickery. Over the years, she used every means to uncover the secrets within him, even examining every inch of his skin for the so-called "Exotic Spirit Rebirth" method.

In three hundred years, Li An had extracted quite a bit of information from her mouth.

Lady Yi... is a mysterious creature.

Moreover, in her lifetime she was a key figure among these mysterious creatures, holding a high status and possessing the mysterious Dao mark.

Among these mysterious creatures, there seems to be a group striving to return to a normal human form, paying an enormous price. Lady Yi and the so-called Great Fan Strange Monarch are leaders on this path, seeking the method known as "Flesh Reconstruction."
