Song Yan did not leave the Ancestral Vein Secret Realm, but An Li came and went.

As time passed, she began to become more active, her rigid personality gradually melting away, and she started excitedly telling Song Yan about her experiences outside, because she actually knew very little about this vast land.

In the words of Song Yan’s world before transmigration, An Li was actually a "reclusive alchemy department introvert," the type of person who would continue to be a recluse even in the afterlife.

But now, she wanted to change herself, so she worked hard, and then she realized that she really had changed.

The weariness and age began to disappear, and the liveliness that was innate to her returned.

An Li walked out of her solitary world, which was like a prison before; she now had Song Yan, a sister, and more friends.

She grew very close to Ancestor Ningxin.

For Ancestor Ningxin, if she wanted a naive young girl to get close to her, it was simply a breeze.

As they got to know each other more deeply, Ancestor Ningxin finally understood what it was about this young girl that attracted that genius of their clan.

A monster, especially one who dances on the edge of the knife and walks between life and death, needs precisely this kind of "true affection" from the young girl, not to mention that they have known each other for nearly two hundred years.

Realizing all of this, Ancestor Ningxin became increasingly at ease with Song Yan.

Because if he wanted to cause trouble, he wouldn’t be acting like this at all.

Now, the only thing she cared about was how long it would take Song Yan to master the "Hundred Forms Life and Death Stake."

Ten years passed in the blink of an eye...

An Li successfully broke through to the late stage of the Crimson Palace, and aside from the first time, her Crimson Palace Blood was configured using the top-level Crimson Palace Pills.

Outside the Secret Realm, there were many people looking for Song Yan, but Song Yan had no intention of leaving.

He knew that the people outside really wanted him to leave the Secret Realm, but the more they wanted it, the more he could cultivate peacefully inside.

He was prepared to stay in this Ancient Race Secret Realm for hundreds of years.

He had always been able to endure patiently.

In the past, because someone was chasing him, he had to run, so now why would he still go out to wander aimlessly?

Demon Mother Su Yao’s sacrifice?

Soul Threshold turmoil?

Sea demons causing chaos?

Their opponent was the Ancient Race, not him.

...

...

Another ten years passed...

An Li smoothly reached the peak of the Crimson Palace Realm and then, under the guidance of the Formless Ancient Race, went to a place called Profound Heart on Gusha Mountain.

Out of respect for Song Yan, the Formless Ancient Race made arrangements for both Yu Xuanwei and Wang Susu.

Yu Xuanwei was placed in a grand sect called the "Divine Water Sword Palace" as an Honored Elder. This "Divine Water Sword Palace" was like a super-enhanced version of the "Nanwu Sword Sect," and was particularly suitable for Water Profound Root Cultivators to cultivate.

Wang Susu, meanwhile, established a small force on Gusha Mountain called the "Shadow Studio." As the Pavilion Master, she was considered a part of what the Formless Ancient Race kept for themselves. Her task was to specifically teach ancient race members who wanted to learn shadow puppetry or were selected talents from local sects who could further their training on Gusha Mountain.

This was quite the lucrative position.

...

One day, when the ground was covered in snow and little flakes were drifting down,

Song Yan was sitting under the eaves making shadow puppets, when suddenly his pupils contracted, yet he didn’t move, letting a cold snowball slowly cut through space and land on his cheek.

Looking up, he saw his junior sister An Li laughing heartily from afar.

"Hahaha, hahaha," the laughter came from the distance.

A silver sword robe, a sincere face, and a soft appearance.

Time had changed her.

Song Yan had accepted her.

But after being accepted by Song Yan, she worked hard to change herself, to return to her former self.
