"Get your hands off me!" The woman roared as she opened her eyes.
Her breathing was fast, as her heart kept thumping as if it was going to jump out of her chest.
The young man outside the door was shocked as he heard Aria's scream. He was momentarily frozen, thinking someone was inside, hurting Aria.
Without a second thought, he kicked the door open, before rushing inside.
However, as he entered, he realized that Aria was all alone. There was no one else in the room. Her clothes were drenched in blood, and her face was filled with fear.
Her eyes were blank, as Aria herself looked at her surroundings in confusion.
She hastily looked at her wrists. There were no shackles there. She slapped herself, surprising the man at the entrance of the room.
"This isn't a hallucination..." She muttered, blankly. The surroundings were familiar to her. She had been in this room in the past. However, that was a long time ago according to her.
She glanced at the man in the distance, whose face revealed a look of familiarity.
"You are... Ayeze?" She asked, frowning. Realizing that, a crazy thought flashed in her head.
She hastily got off the bed, and rushed toward the mirror, glancing at her own reflection.
Seeing her reflection, she was in even more disbelief. "W-what year is it?"
"What are you talking about? Did you have a nightmare? Wash your face and get ready. We need to go to Dragon Mountain! If we complete this mission, we'll become Inner Disciples! We can't waste this opportunity!"
"Dragon Mountain? Inner Disciple?" Aria dropped to her knees. Tears kept trickling down her cheeks.
She could still feel her hand tremble as she thought about everything she went through. There wasn't a single moment where she didn't wish for death. She didn't think she was ever going to be free. However now everything was over, in a way that she never could've expected!
'I am back... I am back in time! All those awful things haven't happened yet! This is a gift from Heaven! This time, I won't make the same mistake!'
Her fists were tightly clenched and tears continued to stream down her face.
"Xu Shan... I'll make this life a living hell for you!" The woman muttered. However, her words were incomprehensible amidst her sobbing.
"Did you say something?!" Ayeze asked, unable to hear clearly what the girl said. However, he felt as if he heard a name.
"Nothing..." Aria stood up, wiping her tears. She didn't have time to cry! If she wanted to change the future, she first had to change the present, and she knew exactly how to do it!
She took a deep breath and composed herself. "We are going to Dragon Mountain. Give me a few minutes. I'll get ready."
"Hurry up. We are already late." Ayeze stepped out of the room, scratching the back of his head, wondering why Aria was acting so weirdly suddenly.
Ayeze closed the door, and stood outside to guard, since he had broken the lock of the door to get an entry.
Inside the room, Aria took off her clothes, and went to take a shower. She couldn't remember how long it had been since she took a shower, at least where she came from.
"Dragon Mountain...the Celestial Lotus..." She spoke, but no one was there to listen to her. "To change the future, I'll need that."
While in the shower, she kept talking to herself as she remembered everything important that she knew.
Even she herself couldn't believe how her soul had traveled back in time, but this was her biggest weapon! It was the secrets that she knew about the world, thanks to the people she was in contact with.
In her last life, around this time, she went to Dragon Mountain, collected herbs and returned, without going any deeper.
However, it was only when the people from the Divine Realm came down after a few days, the entire world came to find out that in the depths of the Dragon Mountain was the Celestial Lotus!
At that time, there was lots of bloodshed, even amongst the various factions of the Divine Realm, in which weak people from this world couldn't even think about taking part.
However, that was also the time where she got the biggest opportunity of her life, which started her journey in the world of supreme beings.
However, now she had decided to change the future for herself! She had lived for thousands of years in the future. She had already become a being with strength that the people here couldn't even imagine.
Even no one in the Divine Realm was able to stand before her! However, despite all that strength, there was one mountain she could never surpass...the mountain which became her nightmare...a man whose existence defied all logic!
This time, she didn't need anyone's help! With her past knowledge, she had everything she needed to become stronger in a much shorter time, so that the tragedy of her last life wasn't going to repeat itself!
This time, she decided to go to the Depths of the Dragon Mountain and be the first person who took the Celestial Lotus.
The Celestial Lotus couldn't help her much since she already awakened her Celestial Spirit. However, its true value was in something else, which only the people from the higher realms knew.
She got dressed after getting out of the shower, and quickly left the Sect with Ayeze... taking her first step towards her goals.
In another part of the world, a giant portal opened in the sky, from which multiple Ancient Ships from the Divine Realm came out!
In another corner of the World, a smaller portal opened from which two young men stepped out...
| "So this is the world which holds my Celestial Lotus..." Xu Shan commented, seeing the notification screen appear before him which verified that he was in the right world this time!
For most of the people in the world, the world was very peaceful. However, no one knew that this was just the silence before the storm…
