Su Yue died once. She fell to her death after missing a step while working overtime, then woke up in the Cangxuan Realm, where she had become a good-for-nothing outer-sect disciple with a mixed bag of spiritual roots. The night she stabbed a scorpion with a rusty pair of scissors in the back hills, a chime rang in her mind: [Karmic System successfully bound.]
The System was her future self, Su Yue, who had attained Immortal Emperorhood and sent her a cheat ability across the threads of karma. Another unwelcome guest also lived in her sea of consciousness: a wisp of a remnant soul, dressed in white, with cool, understated features, who never agreed with her. His name was Yan Qinghan. He had transmigrated ten years before her. In his first life, he cultivated to Immortal Emperorhood, failed his tribulation, and scattered his remnant soul across the myriad heavens. He was her senior, her comrade-in-arms, a fellow countryman, and the embodiment of all her fear and guilt. He was her inner demon. But this inner demon would teach her how to wield a sword, take a fatal blow for her at a crucial moment, and, when she was about to fall apart, tell her in his coldest voice, "I'm still here."
Su Yue had always had just one goal: to go home and see her mother on Earth.
The System had issued a mission she had never accepted: [Slay the inner demon Yan Qinghan. Reward: the road home.] She had refused it.
From Qi Refining to ascending to the Great Void Heaven, from the fall of the Azure Cloud Sect to opening the Gate of Karma at the end of the Ninth Heaven, the people around her fell one by one, and each loss carved another mark into her heart. She still remembered the ginkgo tree. She still remembered the rustling sound of her mother sweeping up the leaves. She kept going. The weight of going home was built upon the lives of everyone who had laid down theirs for her.
Su Yue died once. After working overtime, he stepped on the air and fell to death. When he woke up, he passed through the Cangxuan Realm and became a useless person from the outer sect with mixed spiritual roots. The night when Hou Shan stabbed the scorpion with rusty scissors, there was a ding in his head - [The causal system was successfully bound. The system is a plug-in sent back by her future self - Su Yue, who has become the Immortal Emperor - across cause and effect. There is another uninvited guest living in the sea of consciousness: a remnant soul, white robe, very light eyebrows, and words that never follow her. His name is Yan Qinghan, and he traveled through time ten years earlier than her. After cultivating to the Immortal Emperor in his first life, he failed to survive the tribulation, and his remaining soul was scattered in the sky. He is a senior, a comrade in arms, a fellow countryman, and the embodiment of all her fears and guilt - her inner demon. But this inner demon will teach her how to swing a sword, will block fatal blows for her at critical moments, and will say "I'm still here" in the coldest tone when she is about to collapse. Su Yue has always had only one goal: to go home and see her mother on Earth. The system issued a mission that she had never accepted: [Kill the inner demon Yan Qinghan. Reward: The Road Home. She didn't answer. From practicing Qi to ascending to the Taixu Heaven, from the destruction of the Qingyun Sect to the opening of the door of cause and effect at the end of the Nine Heavens, people around her fell one by one, and every stab left a mark on her heart. She still remembers the appearance of the ginkgo tree, and the rustling sound of her mother sweeping the leaves. She walked down. The weight of returning home is paved with everyone's lives. Ok ok
