His walk was another clue. Even after changes, Gu Chengrui still carried the telltale posture of a soldier. This newfound elegance felt alien to her.

Zhou Ying pushed the noodles toward him. “I haven’t eaten in two days. Eat quickly.”

Gu Chengrui started eating, his movements devoid of their usual roughness. He even picked up the noodles with chopsticks instead of slurping them.

A glint flickered in her eyes as she observed him. In a flash, a dagger materialized in her hand, held against his throat. “Who are you? What have you done to Chengrui?”

Gu Chengrui, or whoever inhabited his body now, chuckled, pushing the hand holding the weapon away. “Let me finish first, then I’ll explain everything.”

“You better,” Zhou Ying warned, refusing to relax her vigilance.

Despite the smile playing on his lips, Gu Chengrui devoured the noodles with uncharacteristic speed, yet remained silent.

The revelation almost knocked her off balance. Gu Chengrui caught her swiftly, guiding her onto the bed. “Rest now. We’ll talk later.”

He turned and headed toward the kitchen to clean the dishes.

Alone, Zhou Ying grappled with the influx of memories.

Images flashed before her. A devastating plague, a desperate search for the Double Flowers on Jade Mountain, encountering the Divine Doctor Yaoshan, their journey as healers, blossoming love…

Their plans for marriage were cut short by the Divine Doctor’s tribulation. He entered the cycle of reincarnation to overcome it, while Mother God remained to protect the continent.

When calamity threatened, Mother God, drawn to the technology and resources of Earth, made her arrangements and descended.
