Three Gods

The snow seemed to be colder than before. The wind was blowing stronger. However, it didn't have much effect on Xue Ji. She dragged her heavily injured body towards the cave hidden behind the snow mountain.

Currently, her soul has taken over the body of a 15-year-old girl who died after being chased by a wolf. Unfortunately, the original owner of the body was very weak. Even her cultivation level was extremely low. With a body like that, what could Xue Ji do?

After all, in the past, Xue Ji was the one who had run away from the gods. She couldn't use her soul power carelessly or the gods could detect her existence.

Right now she didn't have much choice. Yesterday she came out of the spirit world that had trapped her soul for four hundred years. Then she explored the entire peak of Bing An and that weak girl was the first human she met. It seems that this peak is very rarely entered by humans.

She could not travel with only a soul without a body. It would be too risky. Instead of risking danger, she chose to enter the body of the unknown girl.

Xue Ji took a deep breath. Red blood was already soaking her clothes. If in the past the bites and claws of wolves were trivial matters, she couldn't think of it that way anymore. On this frail body, the wounds were extremely painful.

Luckily, the cave she was going to was near. She stumbled toward the cave covered in a mound of snow. After arriving there, she realized that the sun was almost setting.

The cave door was slightly covered in snow. She kicked the pile of snow with difficulty until it finally managed to crumble. However, her breath suddenly felt tight. She felt like she was suffocating.

"Damn! Why is this body so weak?!" Xue Ji grumbled in annoyance. She fell to the ground and took a deep breath.

In her heart she cursed. She had struggled for four hundred years to get out of the spirit world, then after leaving that place, it turned out that she could only occupy the body of a weak girl. Is this also punishment for her past actions?

In the past she did indeed commit many evil deeds, she sinned, committing murder and massacres everywhere. However, it was difficult for her to stop the hatred in her heart. Her hatred for the world has turned her into a cruel person.

Many people hate her. After all who would care about the reason? No one knows the reason why she committed all these crimes. No one knew the reason why she hated the whole world.

Xue Ji closed her eyes for a moment. When she tried to get up suddenly something bright caught her attention. Right near the snow ruins was a faint light flickering. It made her curious.

She took good care of it. After observing for a while, her eyes immediately lit up. Her hand immediately grabbed the luminous something and pulled it out of the snow.

The white flower petals were now in her hand. It was the Snow Lotus flower. The flower is very rare and hard to find. Its function is very good for curing and treating all kinds of diseases. Of course, it was a very useful treasure for Xue Ji who was currently on the verge of dying.

She burst out laughing. "Are you not blind now? Are you finally willing to help me?!" She asked the sky aloud. After that, she quickly chewed and swallowed the flower without hesitation.

A few moments later her stomach began to feel warm. She changed her stance to sitting cross-legged, then began to absorb the essence of the Snow Lotus flower energy that had accumulated in her stomach.

Her eyes were closed. Both hands are placed on the thighs. Her facial expression became calm. The pain that was eating away at her physical body gradually began to lessen. Her bleeding wounds began to close naturally.

If other people saw that, they would be amazed. It turns out that there is such very good herbal medicine. The Snow Lotus flower was indeed not to be underestimated. The flower only appears in the presence of lucky people. Who would have thought that Xue Ji who the gods hated so much would get a chance to get one?

All that night Xue Ji sat absorbing flower essence while doing meditation. That freezing night seemed to mean nothing to her.

Without her knowing it, her black hair gradually turned white. The physical appearance that originally looked like an innocent girl, had somehow turned a little evil.

***

In a very far place, two men were sitting across from each other. In the middle of them was a chessboard with scattered pieces. One of the men had a cheerful face, while the other man had a very calm face.

They seemed to be focused on playing chess before suddenly another man came to distract them. The newcomer man had an aged appearance, his hair completely white.

The two men who were previously playing chess immediately stood up. "Master," they said in unison.

The old man who was called master nodded slightly, his expression filled with unease. He sat down on one of the chairs, then asked, "Did you guys hear?"

The cheerful-looking man called Long Yu shook his head. He looked at the master with a confused expression. "Listen to what? Any bad news?"

"This is indeed bad news," the master said after taking a deep breath. "One of the stones that sealed the demonic woman's body was shattered. I'm afraid this is a sign that the woman has come back to life."

"That… how is that possible? You sure it wasn't the seal's fault?" asked Long Yu with an expression of disbelief. It had been four hundred years since the Evil Queen had disappeared. Does that woman still have a chance to live again?

"Stupid. Do you think the Heavenly Emperor could make such carelessness? Do you doubt the seal created by the emperor?" The old man snorted coldly. Long Yu couldn't help but smile awkwardly.

"Bai Zhi," the old man called out to the calm-faced man who had been silent all this time. "What do you think?"

The man called Bai Zhi was silent for a while. He took a sip of the almost cold tea, then said, "I don't know."

The old teacher immediately snorted. "You've been watching what's happening on earth for years. Can you care a little more? What if that woman messes up again?"

Bai Zhi took a deep breath. He stood staring into the distance. "I just don't want to make any more mistakes." The expression on his face looked sad, don't know what he was thinking.

"You never do anything wrong, Bai Zhi. Do one good deed, then you can choose. Do you want to continue serving the emperor or leave everything behind and turn into a mortal? But I think it's a difficult thing."

Bai Zhi didn't reply. He just walked away.
