My past life exposure shocked the entire internet.

Suddenly, the wind and snow in this world became stronger. Goose feather-like snowflakes fell, dyeing the earth white. In a moment, the snow accumulated above the waist.

Yan Tingfeng stared blankly at the snowflakes falling on his palm, burying the broken chess pieces.

In her second life, she also didn't have a good ending?
"Your Highness, the princess carries the fate of the entire Daning Dynasty on her shoulders." Rong Shi said calmly, "But those who carry great fate will eventually become the target of public criticism."

Yan Tingfeng heard himself asking: "So, she can't have a good ending?"

"Whatever the outcome is, it is up to Her Royal Highness the Princess to decide." Rong Shi smiled faintly, "And when she made her choice, the gears of fate also started turning at that moment."

People are pushed forward by fate.

Whether it is the Eight Characters, the horoscope or the Zi Wei Dou Shu, they all seem to be a program that is set at birth.

No matter how hard you try, you cannot escape the established routine.

That’s why so many people want to become gods and break out of the program.

Yan Tingfeng's eyes struggled for a moment: "So, what about her now?"

"You can see me in the depths of your soul. This is my last gift for you." Rong Shi's smile deepened. "Because I also saw that if I didn't show up at this time, you wouldn't even have three months left."

Yan Tingfeng knew that it was Rong Shi who was saving her.

Being able to live three more months would be a great thing for him.

As someone who deserves to die, he shouldn't ask for too much.

"So, from what you saw, I don't know where the princess is now. However, as a Tai Su Xiang, of course I have to calculate everything." Rong Shi continued, "After the host wakes up, go to the seventh dead tree in the back mountain of the Rong family, seven inches underground, and you will know where the princess is when you look."

Yan Tingfeng's arm trembled for a while before he said, "...Okay."

"You asked me why I wanted to save you. If Your Highness the Princess is the only variable in Shenzhou, then..." Rong Shi's eyebrows curved, and he smiled, "Then you are the one who can make this variable more likely to win."

Yan Tingfeng raised his head suddenly, his pupils constricted.

"My mission has been completed. Perhaps, I will meet you again." Rong Shi's eyes softened, and he said softly, "Take care, OP."

The world was still vast and the chessboard was still there, but the figure who was playing chess with him had completely disappeared.

"Brother Rong..." Yan Tingfeng murmured, "Thank you very much."

If he had not been on the verge of life and death this time, with one foot halfway into the underworld, he would never have seen Rong Shi again.

Rong Shi made careful calculations and brought him the best news.

Where Princess Yongning is.

He really couldn't just die here like this. At least he had to use his life to do something meaningful for Shenzhou.

The heavy snow stopped, the clouds dispersed, the sun rose, and the sunlight illuminated this once barren land.

In the real world, Yan Tingfeng was still sitting cross-legged, but the black lines on his body showed signs of fading, revealing his original pale skin color.

Outside the door, the right and left protectors did not even dare to doze off and continued to protect the Dharma with full concentration.

**
Shenzhou, Yunjing.

Lin Huaijin was packing Ye Wanlan's luggage: "You must take these medicines with you. Who knows what's in the sea? If you get hurt and don't have medicine, that would be bad."

He was muttering to himself as he packed his things.

Ye Wanlan listened patiently without any impatience.

"Miss Ye, are you going to Atlantis alone?" Xiang Shaoyu frowned. "Brother Yan hasn't come out of retreat yet, so why don't Yun Yi and I go together so that we can take care of each other."

That is the lost ancient continent in the legend, and few people have ever set foot there.

"You can't go." Ye Wanlan raised his head and glanced around. "Even if the master of Tongtian Tower still has five years to go before he can come out of seclusion, these five years will definitely not be peaceful. Yunjing will always need someone who can take charge." Xiang Shaoyu hesitated to speak: "Miss Ye, but..."

“No buts.” Ye Wanlan said coldly, “I left the Diamond Shield behind, but it must not be used unless it is a critical moment.”

Xiang Shaoyu and Huo Yunyi looked at each other, but finally gave up being stubborn.

They also knew that they were not like Ye Wanlan who had the blood power of Atlantis, so even if they went to the bottom of the Nanling Sea, it would be futile.

"Alan's bloodline is not fully awakened." Kang Mufeng pondered for a moment and said, "All Atlanteans will be baptized in the Holy Pool. Only those who have completed the baptism will have their bloodline truly awakened."

"Yes." Zhu Qingxian also said, "Alan has no status in Atlantis. Even in the Cangyuan Kingdom, which is closer to humans, the Holy Pool is heavily guarded by the royal palace. No one is allowed to get close. As for Chongming..."

"There is no such thing as a holy pool in Chongming. Everything is decided by the Supreme Wisdom." Xu Peiqing's eyes flashed with sternness. "When children reach the age of six, they will receive the baptism of the Supreme Wisdom to gain more powerful strength."

At this point, she rolled up her sleeves to mid-forearm.

Ye Wanlan saw a blue mark on Xu Peiqing's elbow: "Aunt, is this the mark left by the Supreme Wisdom?"

"Yes." Xu Peiqing whispered, "Anyone who has a brand is a subject of the Supreme Wisdom. Once a subject, always a subject."

That's why she chose to seal her Atlantean bloodline. So what if she had great power? She had no freedom at all!

She cannot make the decision of life or death by herself, it only takes a thought from the Supreme Wisdom.

Xu Peiqing hated the marks on her arms, but she couldn't get them removed no matter what she did.

She once cut off the piece of flesh with a knife, but it grew back soon after and the mark was still there.

So she only wore long sleeves all year round to cover up the dirty mark.

"Yes, although Chongming Kingdom also has a king, the Supreme Wisdom is the real leader." Kang Mufeng said, "If Alan wants to fully awaken his bloodline, he can only start from Cangyuan Kingdom."

Ye Wanlan nodded: "Understood."

Chongming Kingdom not only has supreme wisdom, but is also the culprit behind the killing of her parents.

She does not yet know the full strength of Atlantis and cannot directly confront the Chongming Kingdom.

"But we, in fact, cannot enter Atlantis." Kang Mufeng's voice sank. "The Atlanteans are restricted from entering the land, but they also do not allow humans to enter their territory. Once--"

“Once they find humans entering their territory, they will create all kinds of unexpected disasters.” Ye Wanlan’s eyes turned cold. “In ancient times, fishing boats were often lost. Even if the fishermen just strayed into them, they still took the lives of these innocent people.”

"Cangyuan Kingdom has never liked conflicts with us, and even less likes killing." Zhu Qingxian said, "But Chongming Kingdom is very bloodthirsty and regards humans as inferior creatures."

"I understand." Ye Wanlan smiled, "Uncle Kang, Aunt Zhu, please tell me how to enter Atlantis."

Kang Mufeng and Zhu Qingxian looked at each other, their expressions were somewhat solemn: "This method of entering may..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted.

"Alan, I will accompany you to Atlantis." Xu Peiqing said, "I am from Chongming. I know how to enter Atlantis. It will take time, but it will definitely not cause any harm to you."

"mom!"

"Pei Qing?!"

Ye Wanlan was also shocked: "Aunt, how could you..."

"I've been hiding for so long. Things have become so serious that you have to go there in person. What's the point of me hiding any longer?" Xu Peiqing smiled bitterly. "Besides, so much time has passed. They should think I'm dead. Alan, I'm your aunt. I have to help you."

Her eyes were unusually gentle, like drops of spring rain falling.

"You can travel freely between the land and the South Sea without paying any price..." Kang Mufeng suddenly said, "You... are from the royal family of Zhongming Kingdom, right?" (End of this chapter)
