Simulated immortality allows me to calculate talent stats.

Upon hearing this, your eyes narrowed slightly, as if you had already guessed who it was.

Silence fell over the courtyard.

Wen Fei turned and gazed at you, waiting a moment. Seeing you nod in agreement, she then strolled away.

You did not enter the main hall; you remained waiting in the courtyard.

Wei Qi and his companions, who chose to rest in different places, all cast curious glances their way.

They've already figured out the truth behind your "family annihilation," so right now they're mostly just gossiping and eating melon seeds.

You glared at them, looking around with annoyance.

Finally, his gaze settled on Xu Hui, his eyes sharp, and a faint smile played at the corners of his lips.

"Huizi... I sensed something malicious about you just now."

[You finished speaking.]

The second-generation Xu Hui immediately employed the art of "erasure," making himself disappear from the public eye.

The first generation leader, Xu Hui, was also quick to react.

Using the subtlety of 'tampering,' he switched his own identity with Pang Hai's.

[Let Pang Hai, who is currently watching the spectacle with amusement, change his perception to that of himself.]

[The first generation Xu Hui's "alteration," and the second generation Xu Hui's "erasure."]

For most beings in the world, even those high in the heavens, this place would be a source of fear and trepidation.

It is a bizarre and unpredictable method, difficult to deal with.

You're the only exception.

[Possessing an absolutely unwavering ideology bestowed upon it by the black term "Succubus Body".]

Inner demons are difficult to invade, difficult to eradicate, and difficult to reverse.

The first and second generations of Xu Hui, after a long period of observation, naturally understood this point.

The reason for doing this...

[It's about turning the fire on others.]

Even though you knew their scheme, you could still see the gleeful, amused smile on Pang Hai's face.

I couldn't help it at that moment.

[Xu Hui's move was an open conspiracy.]

You feigned ignorance of Xu Hui's "tampering," and fixed your piercing gaze on Pang Hai.

Pang Hai's smile froze instantly.

[He waved his hands repeatedly: "Brother! I am Hai Zi! It was Xu Hui who distorted your understanding!"]

You seem to suddenly realize something.

[But before Pang Hai could even breathe a sigh of relief.]

The cold light in your eyes pierced him once again.

"Oh? From what you're saying, you're implying that I'm a shallow person whose perceptions can be easily distorted?"

Pang Hai's eyes widened.

[Our eyes met.]

[I immediately understood.]

When you want to get back at someone, no amount of explanation will work.

【"Oh……"】

A gentle, soft laugh rang out.

[Even without appearing in person, her smile alone evokes a feeling of warmth and approachability.]

[A figure with a handsome face, dignified bearing, and refined demeanor, dressed in a scholar's robe.]

[They appeared silently in the courtyard.]

[Eyes that seem to gleam with the warm, jade-like luster gaze upon you, standing quietly in the courtyard.]

"All that playful banter was just to intimidate me."

"After all these years, you've come back from the dead. You've truly changed."

The refined man spoke slowly and deliberately, his tone neither too loud nor too soft, conveying a sense of tranquility and comfort.

He naturally understood this.

[Your seemingly playful banter with Xu Hui and Pang Hai is actually a sarcastic mockery of his arrival.]

Explanation is useless.

[It's the answer you provided.]

Your figure, clad in a long, dark robe, trembled slightly.

[She slowly turned around, her gaze fixed on that unforgettable face deep within her memory.]

The emotions that arise in that fleeting moment are beyond words.

[The image of my father in my mind, from the earliest times I've known him, is one of gentleness, doting affection, and loving tenderness.]

[When you overlap with the person in front of you.]

The past shattered, turning into fleeting, illusory images.

Your expression was indifferent, your gaze lowered gently.

[Observing your expression, the man, maintaining his usual refined demeanor, said, "You are eager for revenge; for many years, you have kept this in mind and have never forgotten it."]

"We owe you this kindness."

"The massacre of your entire family was a lie, but your blood feud is real."

"However, even now..."

The man stood with his hands behind his back, his demeanor dignified, exuding an air of superiority.

[From this moment on, I will acknowledge your existence.]

"I believe you will no longer let naive emotions sway you. In this world, survival of the fittest prevails, and only self-interest can endure."

"You state your conditions, and we will do our best to meet them."

"In the future... it wouldn't be so bad to reconcile?"

The man's words, spoken gently and persuasively, subtly touched the heart.

After he finished speaking, he looked at your face.

[Without the slightest fluctuation or change, remaining completely calm and composed.]

He frowned slightly.

[This subtly shattered his refined and scholarly demeanor, revealing a chilling undercurrent.]

Just as he had been waiting for a long time, about to continue trying to persuade you...

You raised your eyes and met his gaze.

[Completely ignoring his previous words, she simply asked one question.]

"Are you Wen Xu?"

[In response to your inquiry.]

A flicker of surprise crossed the man's eyes, followed by a deeper, mocking sneer.

It seems incomprehensible that you would still be concerned with such a meaningless question even now.

He had a dignified demeanor and a gentle tone.

"I have no name; if you wish, you may call me Wenxu."

[Upon hearing this...]

[Wei Qi, Pang Hai, Xu Hui, Xu Kun.]

They immediately understood this person's identity and the role he had played in their past.

[An unnamed eunuch.]

[Among the forces in the Western Regions, from raising an army to establishing a kingdom.]

[A powerful being who has always been by Yin Qian's side, holding a special position, possessing a mysterious identity, and formidable strength.]

[He was also one of Yin Qian's most trusted people.]

[They were the closest family members to you during the first sixteen years of your life.]

[Father Wenxu, an unnamed eunuch.]

[To think that two completely different identities could be connected.]

They were all left speechless and dumbfounded.

Then, he carefully observed your expression.

To their surprise, you were excessively calm.

But this composure immediately infuriated Xu Kun, who knew you best.

[Without waiting for it to give a verbal prompt.]

Your long, dark robe suddenly billowed wildly, your aura swirling like billowing black smoke, a profound and ethereal darkness that even shrouded the night.

Your slender, pale fingers rest on the long sword hanging at your waist.

The sound of swords rang out.

The sword mark etched between your brows releases a world of swords, which emerges behind you.

[You suddenly unleashed a burst of energy and mysterious power.]

[It wasn't as earth-shattering as the previous one, with thunderclaps filling the sky and dark clouds covering the ground.]

But now, there is restraint and restraint.

[But it's even more alarming than before.]

Within the ancient city, immediate countermeasures were also taken.

[A series of powerful auras emerged.]
