"This pill..." Yan Zhu Guang reassured, "Miss Su, don't be afraid. It's a spiritual medicine to supplement your congenital deficiencies." She explained kindly, "You're unable to cultivate due to your frail constitution and innate shortages. Once you take this pill, you'll be able to practice spells just like us." Su Qian Er's eyes lit up, her expression filled with excitement. She grasped Yan Zhu Guang's hand vigorously, as if grabbing a lifeline: "Miss Yan, are you saying that after taking it, I can also cultivate?" "Exactly," Yan Zhu Guang looked at the hand tightly holding hers. Su Qian Er, as if scalded, quickly withdrew her hand. Yun Mi Xue shifted her gaze away from the hand as well, while Yan Zhu Guang smiled reassuringly at Su Qian Er, saying, "We mean you no harm." Su Qian Er rubbed the fabric of her clothes nervously and shook her head, "Miss Yan misunderstands. It's not that I doubt my benefactors, but I'm just so thrilled at the chance to cultivate, I forgot myself." Her words were sincere, and she was genuinely overjoyed; being able to cultivate was a dream come true! "Do you trust us now?" Yan Zhu Guang asked. Su Qian Er bit her lip and nodded firmly, "As long as it allows me to cultivate, I'll do anything. You are my saviors; how could I not trust you?" Yan Zhu Guang seemed relieved, "It's good that you trust us." She placed the black pill into Su Qian Er's palm, "Don't be afraid, we're not here to give you false hope. This pill is the right remedy and will surely correct your congenital deficiency." Yan Zhu Guang emphasized this to ensure Su Qian Er didn't get distracted when taking the pill. If the Tianxin Lotus Seed was channeled elsewhere, it would be wasted—and she didn't have any extras to spare. While handing the disguised Tianxin Lotus Seed to Su Qian Er, Yan Zhu Guang kept an eye on the system backpack to monitor the status of the other two seeds. Initially, Yan Zhu Guang was worried about the time-stopping effect of the system backpack and considered moving the two seeds to a storage ring to observe the reaction when the Yuan Feng Array was dissolved. However, the system assured her confidently that the backpack was intelligent; if external energies interacted with its contents, even with time stopped, it would display any changes. Trusting the system's word, Yan Zhu Guang skipped the transfer process, focusing instead on the Yuan Feng Array's response. Under normal circumstances, after giving Su Qian Er the Tianxin Lotus Seed, the Yuan Feng Array's power should dissipate completely. Only with its energy gone and the seed's power released would it take effect. After passing the Tianxin Lotus Seed to Su Qian Er, the two seeds in Yan Zhu Guang's backpack suddenly shone brightly, seemingly unleashing all of the Yuan Feng Array's power. In the next moment, the array's glow extinguished. The same phenomenon should have occurred with the seed in Su Qian Er's hand, but due to a concealment spell and an additional protective charm cast at the moment of release, and since Su Qian Er lacked cultivation and spiritual energy, she noticed nothing unusual. As for Yun Mi Xue, with her formidable strength, she easily saw through Yan Zhu Guang's illusion and observed the peculiar change in the seed. Was the array's power being nullified? It seemed normal enough that Yun Mi Xue didn't find it odd, but Yan Zhu Guang sensed something was amiss. In her hypothesis, this Su Qian Er wasn't the original Su Qian Er. Why had the Yuan Feng Array dissipated so cleanly? Had she guessed wrong? Was Su Qian Er truly the original? Or had this Su Qian Er's soul fully merged with the original one's body, leaving even the heavenly principles unable to discern the difference? While Yan Zhu Guang pondered this perplexity, an unexpected change occurred. Su Qian Er, conflicted, stared at the pill, hesitating whether to consume it. Meanwhile, the Tianxin Lotus Seeds in Yan Zhu Guang's backpack suddenly glowed again. The previously dissolved energy of the Yuan Feng Array returned. Yun Mi Xue, initially somewhat relieved, was now dazzled by the light from the seed in Su Qian Er's hand. What was happening here? Could the dissipated array energy really return? Yun Mi Xue and Yan Zhu Guang exchanged subtle glances, each seeing the other's confusion. Only Su Qian Er, caught up in her own internal struggle, remained oblivious. As she hesitated, the Yuan Feng Array on the Tianxin Lotus Seed flickered continuously, nearly blinding Yan Zhu Guang and Yun Mi Xue. Yan Zhu Guang wondered if this flickering would render her enchantment ineffective; after all, she wasn't dealing with just one system above, but multiple, each with its own quirks. Shaking her head at the system's unreliability during critical moments, Yan Zhu Guang returned her focus to Su Qian Er. After Yun Mi Xue informed her of Su Qian Er's soul issues, and despite Yan Zhu Guang's current inability to perceive at the soul level, she cast a spell to glimpse Su Qian Er's soul. The spell consumed significant energy; she merely glimpsed and withdrew. Finally comprehending the many anomalies, Yan Zhu Guang realized why even Yun Mi Xue hadn't doubted Su Qian Er. The latter's soul appeared identical to her body. Yan Zhu Guang steadied herself, recalling what she'd seen: although Su Qian Er's soul and body weren't perfectly aligned, the discrepancy was minuscule. The body displayed slight rejection but seemed to harmonize as soon as the soul fully acclimatized, becoming an exact fit. Could she have overthought it? Was this Su Qian Er truly the original? "Host! I'm back!" As Yan Zhu Guang grappled with her doubts, the system's voice resounded in her mind. Pretending ignorance, Yan Zhu Guang asked, "Back? Where did you go?" "Huh?" The system, seemingly fatigued from a long journey, sounded disappointed. "Host, you didn't notice I was gone?" Yan Zhu Guang teased it a little, then said, "I noticed. Just wondering where you were." The system, realizing the jest, replied, "Host, you're so mean." However, the typically calm and composed host had actually thought of it, making the system quite happy! It showed that the host cared for it somewhat and that it still had its uses. "They summoned me urgently upstairs," the system explained. "They detected a peculiar energy fluctuation in the records I sent, so they had me back for an impromptu meeting." "What energy fluctuation?" Yan Zhu Guang asked. The system's routine reports included its operational logs, unrelated to the host. "Space-time energy!" the system revealed. "The fluctuation was too subtle for our onboard analyzer, but upstairs figured it out: it's space-time energy from someone in this world returning." "Su Qian Er? The Su Qian Er from a future timeline, reborn to now?" "Eh? Host guessed it?" The system wasn't too surprised. "Host was suspecting Su Qian Er had issues; this should be the reason." Yan Zhu Guang frowned, shaking her head internally, "No, it doesn't make sense; there's still a problem. How could she not remember even her name if she's the original Su Qian Er?" "Uh…" the system pondered. "But the test confirmed she's reborn. Maybe something happened during rebirth causing memory loss?" Unconvinced, Yan Zhu Guang decided to let it be. The medicine was given, and she'd remain cautious around Su Qian Er, whatever her identity might be.
