# Chapter 1929: Real Dream
"In this life, her name is... Xiao Lingxi."
In the sea of his soul, as Yun Che listened to the account of the Primordial Divine, he maintained a posture of reverence toward the supreme deity. The spiritual pressure he naturally released when facing others in daily life was tightly restrained, and he did not dare interrupt midway.
Although he was the supreme emperor of the present world, compared to an existence like the Primordial Divine, he was nothing more than a lowly ant.
The current world existed because of the Primordial Divine. Having undergone a thousand reincarnations to achieve rebirth was also to eliminate hidden calamities. Her existence was not only supreme but also noble beyond compare.
But the last life of the Primordial Divine... with every word she spoke, the sense of déjà vu grew stronger. Gradually, it was no longer mere déjà vu but an absolute, complete overlap.
When the three words "Xiao Lingxi" resounded clearly within the sea of his soul, even though his heart and soul had been violently struck by the excessively intense "déjà vu," he was still so shocked that his soul sea nearly overturned.
Xiao... Ling... Xi...
In his life, there was no name more familiar than this.
Ling... Xi...
My Lingxi... she is... the reincarnation of the Primordial Divine...
No...
She is...
The Primordial Divine!!
Perhaps there could be no stronger, more shocking soul impact in this world. What surged within Yun Che's soul sea at this moment were a thousand raging waves, ten thousand towering billows... His consciousness seemed to be drawn into an endless vortex, spinning and reeling, losing the ability to think for a long time.
He had grown up with Xiao Lingxi, and he was the one who knew her best, understood her most thoroughly in this world.
Her personality was gentle with a hint of softness, but when it came to matters concerning him, she would become especially strong and bold, even disregarding consequences. But at the very least, there was never anything like "majestic authority" about her.
Her talent in the profound way was quite mediocre. In her youth, she trained desperately to protect him, but later, when his profound veins were reborn and he quickly grew to a point where he no longer needed her protection, she lost her motivation for training... because she never had any deep desire for the profound way.
She was more willing, and always strove to be, an ordinary woman from a small city—taking care of her father, looking after Yong'an and Yongning, quietly hoping and waiting for Yun Che to return home each time.
When facing the many women around Yun Che, she often felt inferior because of her own excessive ordinariness.
Who could have imagined... even if all the most absurd fantasies and delusions in Yun Che's life were combined and magnified a thousand times, it would still be impossible to imagine that Xiao Lingxi, who grew up with him, was actually the reincarnating Primordial Divine...
That supreme deity who created the chaos world, the Creation Gods, and the Demon Emperor!
At that moment, an especially gentle soul power silently descended, slowly calming his turbulent soul sea, allowing his consciousness to regain clarity.
"For you, this should be a surprising matter not easily accepted," she continued, her voice very calm. "And you are the one who grew up with her. After you completed your marriage ceremony, she is now one of your wives."
"..." Yun Che was unable to speak for a long time.
As his thoughts returned to clarity, the inexplicable anomalies about Xiao Lingxi also surfaced.
She could read the Heaven-Defying World Scripture... and the Primordial Divine script was precisely the writing created by the Primordial Divine! The Heaven-Defying World Scripture was also the Primordial Divine Art left by the Primordial Divine.
He could never truly consummate with her... Was this some irresistible, imperceptible level of suppression? Or was it some restriction left by the Primordial Divine before the last reincarnation to prevent defilement by others?
Xiao Lingxi...
Primordial Divine...
Yun Che tried his utmost, yet he still could not truly overlap these two names.
At this moment, he suddenly realized something and asked the question that had long been confirmed in his heart: "You... are the Primordial Will of the Primordial Divine, right?"
"Yes." The woman's voice gave him an answer.
"You just said that during the last reincarnation of the Primordial Divine, the Primordial Will and memories would fall into slumber." Yun Che suppressed the agitation in his soul. "But Lingxi... is clearly still alive, meaning this reincarnation has not yet been completed. Then you, as the Primordial Will, shouldn't you be in slumber? Why are you..."
His words stopped. Even though it was a world of the soul, he could clearly perceive the violent pounding of his heart.
He vaguely guessed the answer.
"Because this reincarnation has already failed. Even the Primordial Divine Body, which was nearly complete, has suffered severe damage. As for the reason..." Her voice was ethereal and gentle. "It is exactly as you are thinking at this moment."
"Because... of me?" Yun Che murmured.
Not only did it fail, but... severe damage!?
"Everything changed starting from your wedding day... That day, she woke you up early, dressed you in the wedding garments she made herself, watched you drink the morning porridge she prepared herself..."
The woman's voice in the soul sea gradually grew softer and more distant, until it faded away at some unknown point. In Yun Che's soul sea, a clear world unfolded:
"Xiao Che, wake up quickly! Time to get up!"
"Hmm... it's still so early, let me sleep a little longer."
"Today is the big day of your marriage to Miss Situ! The hour is approaching, hurry up and get up!"
...
"Xiao Che, this is the porridge I just made. Your body is weak, and the morning will be long... Drink it all."
"Phew, finished... I wonder if I'll still get to eat little aunt's cooking often in the future."
"Hehe, it's you marrying the city lord's daughter, not you marrying into her family. As long as you want, I can still cook for you every day like before... But Xiao Che, after you start a family, you'll definitely spend less and less time with me."
"How could that be! I just promised little aunt yesterday: after marrying Situ Xuan, I won't forget my little aunt just because I have a wife, I won't reduce the time I spend with little aunt, and I'll come whenever little aunt calls, just like before!"
"You're still obedient! It's just... without realizing it, my Xiao Che has grown up so much."
...
"Big brother, big brother, I'm here... That outfit you're wearing actually looks pretty good... Um, what does getting married feel like? It seems like you're not that excited?"
"Indeed, there's not much feeling, so I can't say I'm excited. This was an engagement arranged by our parents early on. I haven't even met Situ Xuan a few times, and I can barely remember what she looks like... Yuanba, you're so excited early in the morning, it shouldn't be just because of my wedding, right?"
"Hehe... Actually, there's some good news. My father invited a friend who is a mentor at the New Moon Mystic Palace the day before yesterday. He originally wanted to get me into the New Moon Mystic Palace through him, but unexpectedly, that senior mentor said that with my aptitude, I could directly enter the Cangfeng Mystic Palace."
"Oh! That's great! This is a huge celebration for our entire Liuyun City!"
"Hehehe! I've been so excited I haven't slept well for two days. Once I enter the Cangfeng Mystic Palace and get stronger and stronger, I'd like to see who still dares to bully you!"
"Compared to that, your matter is the real celebration... On the day you formally enter the Cangfeng Mystic Palace, I bet the whole city will... will... will..."
...
This was a "dream" that had appeared many years ago. In the "dream," the one he married was not Xia Qingyue, but Situ Xuan. In the "dream," Xia Yuanba had a robust body, astonishing talent, and eyes that shimmered with divine light, and also...
Why... were these images, these sounds, so vivid and clear...
And as for the memories from before...
Ahh~~
The world of his soul suddenly began to tremble, trembling so violently it seemed on the verge of collapse.
Countless images and endless sounds interwove chaotically in his consciousness. His heartbeat pounded as if about to explode. His consciousness became disordered, his memories blurred, as if thousands of sticks had suddenly thrust in, frantically stirring within his soul sea...
He wanted to roar, to struggle, but couldn't make a single sound.
Lingxi...
Yuanba...
Situ Xuan...
Xia Qingyue...
...
Qing... Yue...
...
Just as the sudden turbulence had begun, his soul sea abruptly stopped churning.
Consciousness and memories became perfectly clear...
A clarity he had never experienced before.
Even the dream became that clear.
Beyond that clarity, the memories of the past gradually blurred... grew fuzzier... and quickly receded into the distance. He desperately tried to grasp them but could only helplessly perceive them drifting farther away until they slipped from his memory, beyond his soul.
He stood frozen there, staring blankly at the gray world before him.
"Have you remembered?" the woman's voice sounded again. "The memories hidden beneath the void... your true memories."
"..." Yun Che could not speak, as if suddenly trapped in a bizarre dream from which he could not wake.
"Your adoptive father, Xiao Ying, back then tried his utmost to save a baby girl. That baby girl was not Xia Hongyi's daughter Xia Qingyue, but Liuyun City Lord Situ Nan's daughter, Situ Xuan."
"Because of gratitude for Xiao Ying's life-saving grace, the one who publicly promised to betroth his daughter to Xiao Ying's son was not Xia Hongyi, but Situ Nan... Similarly, the one who was betrothed to you (Xiao Yun) was Situ Xuan, not Xia Qingyue."
"The Xia Yuanba in your current memories is his true former self. But when you were sixteen, a special mutation occurred in him."
"Ahh... ahh..." Yun Che's soul let out low moans. The feeling was not pain, but chaos, severance, misalignment, distortion... The extreme discomfort was indescribable.
Before the age of sixteen, all memories related to Xia Yuanba changed. What was now imprinted in his memory was the version from his dream... a robust body, impressive talent, eyes that seemed to pierce the soul.
And also at sixteen, memories related to Xia Qingyue, already exceptionally faint, all slipped away... as if completely cut from his memory, still lingering in memory but no longer happening to him—like an unforgettable illusory dream.
In their place came memories of Situ Xuan. Over sixteen years, he had met Situ Xuan few times, but each encounter was incredibly vivid and profound.
He could even remember every harsh word she said, and every expression of contempt or amusement.
In his memories, Xiao Lie always told him stories about Xiao Ying saving the city lord's daughter.
In his memories, Xia Yuanba was not only robust in build but had been tough and domineering since childhood, unafraid of anyone.
In his memories, Xia Hongyi... had only one child—Xia Yuanba!
"What about Qingyue?! Where is Qingyue?!" He struggled to search through what seemed to be completely disordered memories. But no matter how hard he tried, all memories related to Xia Qingyue before age sixteen were merely... dreams that had slipped away.
"Still don't understand?"
Yun Che's state made the Primordial Will's voice carry a hint of a sigh it should not have: "Before you turned sixteen, before your wedding day, Xia Qingyue... never existed."
