Our Ancestors Chat Across Time, and We Gladly Accept Every Offering

After Zuo Jiayi bonded with the System, she unexpectedly began communicating across time with the Zuo family of the Great Yue dynasty, a family that had produced two dukes in a single generation. After she gave them her name, the Duke Who Guards the Nation unrolled the family genealogy and shouted excitedly, “She's clearly our founding ancestor!” Hungry, she accepted the claim. From then on, the ducal household sent her offerings, and she used them to fill her stomach, pay off her debts, and buy up ancient products to build her own brand... After unlocking the System Shop, Zuo Jiayi “performed miracles” again and again, and tales of a deity in the Zuo family began circulating in the capital. She saved the emperor, fought demonic energy, and helped the Zuo family escape the fate of having their property confiscated and being exiled. Every so often, she even treated everyone in the ducal household to food, and enjoyed every moment of it. One day, Zuo Jiayi once again wondered whether she had been wrong to claim she was their ancestor. The little orb sighed helplessly. “Who says the Host isn't? Does an ancestor stop being an ancestor after being reincarnated?” As her System upgraded, she gradually recovered memories of her previous life. It turned out she really was the Zuo family's founding ancestor! The modern-day Zuo family kept their ancestor's words in mind: “The Goddess of Light will descend upon Lin'an seven hundred years from now, and restore the historical records to advance her cultivation...” This was a family secret, passed down to the next generation by each family member who served as the offerings caretaker only on their deathbed. The whole family would learn the truth only when their founding ancestor crossed worlds and returned centuries later. One day, the news reported that Great Yue artifacts had been unearthed in Lin'an and that a university student had contributed ancient books to fill gaps in the historical record. The modern Zuo family stared at the gates of Lin'an University. “The founding ancestor is here?”
