Star Illusion Thousand Machine and Han Yan were still speculating.
"I think itâs probably because you acquired that Star Plate and experienced Bloodline Awakening before the age of sixteen, which is why the bloodline of the Guardian of the Gods is far purer than others, enabling you to awaken the hidden bloodline of other descendants of the Guardian of the Gods," Star Illusion Thousand Machine speculated.
"That seems possible." Han Yan instinctively touched the Mysterious Star Plate on her chest, somewhat agreeing with Star Illusion Thousand Machineâs speculation.
Speaking about past and present lives, the appearance of this Star Plate marked the biggest difference.
Although Star Illusion Thousand Machineâs speculations explained the reason for the Bloodline Awakening of Huayue and the others, according to her guess, Huayue and Zirong following her werenât accidental, it seemed like an arrangement set long ago, with one being Huayueâs father, Hua Guanyu, and the other Lu Guankong, could it be that they foresaw her gaining the Star Plate and undergoing Bloodline Awakening before sixteen?
Hmm... Lu Guankong is a Star Divination Master, Hua Guanyu is supposedly a Temple Priest of the Divine Continent, perhaps this possibility really exists.
In the past, Han Yan might not have believed in so-called Star Divination Techniques, and the idea of foresight, but given her rebirth, Han Yan wouldnât say she fully trusts it, yet she wouldnât completely deny it either. Speaking of which, doesnât she herself often have foresight? The world is vast, there are myriad wonders, if she can do it, why canât others? Itâs merely different methods leading to the same outcome.
However, even if a reasonable explanation is found for this matter, Han Yan still has other doubts. For instance, how did that Heavenly Destiny Star Plate appear on her chest, and the mysterious woman, and the Aolai Divine Beast, what indeed is happening with these? Han Yan has many doubts in her heart.
"How did this Star Plate appear on me?" Han Yan asked while touching the Star Plate on her chest; she had asked this question before but never found an answer.
"I hadnât awakened then, how could I know." Like before, Star Illusion Thousand Machine gave Han Yan a disappointing answer, but after finishing, he added, "But now Iâm certain of another matterâthe very reason you can reincarnate is all because of this Star Plate, meaning someone wanted you to reincarnate, thus gave you the Heavenly Destiny Star Plate, creating who you are today."
"What!" Although she didnât receive the answer she wanted, the following words from Star Illusion Thousand Machine still shocked Han Yan.
Previously, she always thought her reincarnation was an accident, destined by an unfathomable fate. Only now does she realize that none of it was accidental, but rather deliberately done by someone.
"Not only your reincarnation but also your Bloodline Awakening post-rebirth, reaching Sword Master Realm before sixteen, all of it was intentionally arranged, but I donât know who that person is," perceiving Han Yanâs thoughts, Star Illusion Thousand Machine continued.
Han Yanâs mind surged with shock waves, unable to settle for a long time, realizing that nothing was accidental or fate-driven, but arranged by someone long ago.
Who on earth is that person!
Lu Guankong! A name suddenly flashed in Han Yanâs mind.
Though Han Yan dared not assert other matters, at least, Zirongâs presence around her was due to him, and the Sword Heart Soul Cleansing Pond seemed coincidental, but who knows if it wasnât all deliberate.
She must find this person, even if the Heavenly Destiny Star Plate and her reincarnation have nothing to do with him, his Star Divination Technique of perceiving Heavenly Secrets may provide her with an answer.
"By the way, what about my Innate Divine Ability, is it just to help Huayue and the others awaken their bloodlines, and incidentally merge that divine power, nothing else?" Finally calming her mind, Han Yan asked curiously.
Though she still doesnât know what the Innate Divine Abilities of Huayue and Jiang Yuzhe are, Han Yan truly envies Zirongâs Devil Eyes.
"What else do you want? As descendants of the Guardian of the Gods, arenât you satisfied that you can make them willingly follow you?" A long-lost big eye roll appeared on the Star Plate. Apparently, Star Illusion Thousand Machine deeply despised Lady Muâs insatiable greed.
"Come on, they follow me because the Lady Mu has won them over with virtue, not because of this?" Han Yan said, feeling both wronged and angry.
Youâve lived for millions of years, how can you be so worldly?
Saying this, Lady Mu completely threw away her reputation as the Capitalâs first playboy to the ends of the universe.
"Alright, you conquered them with virtue." Star Illusion Thousand Machine felt deeply helpless towards Big Playboy Muâs shamelessness and continued, "Actually, youâre not entirely without benefits; when helping them subdue that divine power, didnât your Heart Protecting Divine Sword also undergo a refinement, making it more effortless to control? Plus, I have a feeling that their divine power did not leave nothing behind after circulating within your Heart Meridian; it should have some benefits for you, itâs just that your cultivation is shallow, and you canât perceive its advantages yet."
"Really?" Han Yanâs eyes widened with joy. She wasnât greedy, but as a cultivator, who wouldnât wish to become stronger?
"Iâm not entirely sure, but I suppose itâs likely. After all, I donât fully understand the other Guardians of the Gods either; there are still some matters Iâve not fully recalled, and your situation is not entirely alike with the Guardians of the Gods back then, so I dare not make hasty conclusions," Star Illusion Thousand Machine sighed deeply.
"How come you havenât remembered yet?" Han Yan thought his amnesia had fully recovered, but it turned out not entirely, she asked worriedly.
"I donât know either, it seems Iâm somewhat different from the other Guardians of the Gods; exactly for this reason, I was able to survive till today just by clinging with Divine Sense after my physical body perished, but the Divine Sense suffered some damage, so memories are incomplete and havenât recovered yet," Star Illusion Thousand Machine recalled.
"How did you die exactly?" Curious, Han Yan asked. Although the word "die" seemed somewhat inappropriate, she couldnât find a better term.
"Probably ended by my own hands," Star Illusion Thousand Machine thought about it and answered.
"Suicide? Why, lived too long and got bored? Heartbroken after being mercilessly abandoned, trapped at a cultivation bottleneck leading to psychological madness?" Han Yanâs Gossip Fire burned fiercely in her heart.
"Uh..." Star Illusion Thousand Machine remained silent for a long while, merely deep black lines appeared on the Star Plate.
"What, did I hit the nail on the head?" Han Yanâs Gossip Fire continued to burn.
"If I could, Iâd dearly want to strangle you," after some silence, Star Illusion Thousand Machine said through gritted teeth.
