Shen Yuan and his family returned to the manor as Shen Yuxin thought they all needed some time to process what happened in the Mystique Realm and that Shen Yuan needed to rest now.
Back at the manor, Shen Yuan couldn’t help but feel excited mixed with some curiosity about his strength now. His mother, Shen Yuxin, was still holding his hand as she led him to her room.
“Yuan’er, you should rest now,” Shen Yuxin said gently, patting his head as she helped him lie down on the bed.
Shen Yuan nodded as he was indeed tired from all the things that happened today. He looked towards Shen Yuxin and said in a cute voice befitting his age, “All right, Mom, but can you stay with me until I fall asleep?” Shen Yuan still wanted his mother to accompany him as he was all alone while awakening.
…
The system spoke in Shen Yuan’s Sea of Consciousness where Yuan won’t be able to hear it,
[From the looks of Shen Yuan’s behavior, his emotions were also reset together with his rebirth, that’s why sometimes he acts mature, and sometimes he acts childish. He would need to reach the same age as his previous life to adjust his emotions or he will have to experience something extreme.]
The system went silent after speaking to itself as it thought of something, its voice now sounding intrigued,
[Haha it would truly be interesting to see how he will complete the quest.]
The system began planning for new quests for its entertainment as well as for Shen Yuan’s growth for its own reasons.
…
Shen Yuan fell asleep in his mother’s embrace, peacefully lying down on the soft bed as if sleeping on fleeting clouds.
Shen Yuxin smiled sweetly seeing her son’s sleeping expressions filled with contentment. She kissed his forehead and went to sleep as well.
…
As the morning sun rose from the east, Shen Yuan’s eyes stirred slightly as he opened them. The first thing he saw was Shen Yuxin’s massive jugs close to his face, their fragrance tingling his nose.
He looked up to see that she was sleeping peacefully; he decided to rest for a while more since it would be a busy day ahead of him. After all, he went through his awakening ritual yesterday, even though he was a bit late compared to his peers since he had to nourish his body due to the complications at his birth.
Most of his peers would have already started refining their bodies and traversing through the realm of Body Forging at this time. Normally, most cultivators take around 7-8 years for Body Forging Realm since, due to their young age, they can’t go through intensive training.
Even the geniuses take at least 5 Years with various treasures of heaven and earth to complete Body Forging and make the best vessel they can to accommodate Qi.
Shen Yuan was wondering how he would cultivate and how much time he would be able to finish forging his Body.
‘I will ask Mom about it after breakfast. Hmm, I also want to know about the realms beyond Body Forging as well. Hey system! Tell me about the Realms beyond Body Forging Realm.’
The system’s voice sounded in his mind.
[Host needs to find that out himself.]
‘Wtf, you can read my mind system??’ Shen Yuan’s eyes widened slightly as he thought of it, but then he calmed down as he remembered that most systems were capable of that in his past life.
But the system replied at this time,
[I can read the Host’s mind as long as the host wills it; if the host doesn’t want me to read his mind, then I won’t be able to read it.]
Shen Yuan’s eyes shined with an understanding light as he nodded thoughtfully as he said, “How rare to find a system with a conscience; you know how to keep others’ privacy. Good good.”
Shen Yuan was in a happy mood to know that the system wouldn’t be able to hear his thoughts; as for the possibility that the system was lying? Shen Yuan didn’t bother thinking too much about that because the system wouldn’t gain anything from it.
Even if it could read his mind Shen Yuan can’t do anything against it. But then Shen Yuan got curious about something as he asked, “Hey system, it seems like you know about my past life, how do you know that if you haven’t read my mind?”
Shen Yuan was really curious about this as he didn’t know how the system was able to tell that this was his second life. To which the system replied in the same robotic tone, freeweɓnvel.com
[The system used its power to see through infinite timelines and deduced the host’s previous life with the faint traces of the system found on you in other places then the system copied that timeline and reversed it to see the host’s past life.]
Shen Yuan’s heart skipped a beat as he heard that the system found his traces in another place. He Hurriedly asked the system, nearly screaming in his mind, ‘System! Where did you find my traces?? Can I go there to see my family from my previous life??’
But the system replied in its same robotic tone mercilessly,
[Host is too weak the think about going anywhere outside this World, Host should focus on cultiavtio-]
Shen Yuan’s voice sounded this time, but the tone was so cold that it would send chills in the back of anyone who heard them, ‘System, I’m asking one last time, where did you find my traces and how can I return there?’
