Chapter 565: The Mysterious Past (2)

Standing in the corner, Bai Hanyun calmly watched a handsome young man crying as if his world had crumbled. Curious, she approached him and noticed his clenched fists.

In his clenched palm, a beautiful wedding ring had cut through his flesh. Blood dripped onto the ground, yet the young man didn’t seem to feel any pain.

Bai Hanyun frowned slightly when he watched this scene.

’What could have happened to this man for him to be in such pain that he couldn’t even feel his wounds?’

Suppressing her curiosity, Bai Hanyun looked away from the young man and scanned the surroundings.

A few seconds later, she realized she was in a luxurious study room. Noticing a wedding photo hanging on the wall, she walked over for a closer look.

The moment her gaze landed on the bride’s face, Bai Hanyun was stunned. Before she could react, a weak, hoarse voice filled with indescribable pain sounded behind her.

"Ah Yan... Ah Yan..."

The young man kept calling the same name as he collapsed to the ground, clutching his chest as if he could no longer breathe.

Just as Bai Hanyun stepped toward him, the surroundings began to crumble.

Crack... crack... crack...

Her eyes widened as panic surged through her heart. Reaching out toward the young man, she shouted, "Wait! Don’t go!"

Crash!

As the surroundings shattered like glass, Bai Hanyun gasped, and clarity slowly returned to her eyes. Clutching her chest, she panted heavily while cold sweat dripped from her chin.

Seeing that the talisman had disappeared, the Yin Mirror released Bai Hanyun’s hand and waited patiently for her to recover.

A few moments later, Bai Hanyun’s breathing steadied, but the panic and chill she had felt when the scene shattered still lingered in her heart.

Raising her head to look at the Yin Mirror, she hoarsely asked, "Yin Mirror... what was that just now?"

The Yin Mirror didn’t answer her immediately, but flipped her palm. Instantly, a small, pearly, light-blue pill with intricate golden lines on its surface appeared in her hand.

"Fairy Bai, you should take this Soul Stabilizing Pill. It will stabilize your soul and calm your mind."

Bai Hanyun reached for the pill and put it into her mouth without hesitation. The moment it touched her tongue, the pill dissolved into a warm stream of energy, flowing through her meridians before finally settling in her dantian.

Seeing that she had calmed down, the Yin Mirror answered her previous question.

"Fairy Bai, what you saw just now was that person’s past. Although I can only show you a brief fragment, it is the reason for your sense of familiarity toward him."

Hearing this, Bai Hanyun fell into deep thought.

After a short silence, the Yin Mirror continued, "Fairy Bai, this is all I can help you with for now. If you wish to know more, you must obtain his personal belongings. It would be best if the item is something you saw in the past you just witnessed."

Bai Hanyun looked up and nodded. "I understand."

Thinking about the consequences of forcefully peeking into another person’s past, the Yin Mirror warned her, "Fairy Bai, the heavenly punishment may descend without warning. You should be especially careful in the coming days."

Noticing Bai Hanyun’s worried expression, the Yin Mirror added gently, "Don’t worry. With my husband accompanying you, you will be fine. Just in case, I will give you a gift."

After saying that, she reached for Bai Hanyun’s hand. Flipping Bai Hanyun’s palm upward, the Yin Mirror bit her fingertip and dripped a single drop of blood into it.

The moment the blood touched Bai Hanyun’s palm, it vanished. Instantly, a red mark shaped like a water droplet appeared on her skin.

Looking at her in surprise, Bai Hanyun asked, "Yin Mirror, what is this?" she asked curiously.

"This is my Reversal Time Spell. If you encounter mortal danger, this spell will activate and reverse time by five minutes," the Yin Mirror explained with a soft sigh. "I hope it will help you earn another chance when the heavenly punishment arrives."

Touching the water-drop mark on her palm, Bai Hanyun said gratefully, "Thank you, Yin Mirror."

The Yin Mirror smiled. "It’s my pleasure to be able to help you, Fairy Bai."

After saying that, she then turned to look at the moon hanging in the night sky through the floor-to-ceiling glass windows.

"The night is deep. Fairy Bai, you should rest early. I need to return to my Master’s side. If you require my help, just tell my husband, and I will come to your aid."

"Alright."

Giving Bai Hanyun another gentle smile, the Yin Mirror turned into golden particles and disappeared from the living room.

Seeing that his wife had left without sparing him even a glance, the Yang Mirror pouted sadly.

’.... My wife doesn’t love me anymore...’

Unaware that the Yang Mirror had already written three volumes of tragic, one-sided love stories with himself and the Yin Mirror as the protagonists, Bai Hanyun stood up and said, "I’m going to sleep first. You can do whatever you want."

Sensing her complicated emotions, the Yang Mirror put away his pitiful expression and asked in a calm voice tinged with concern, "Girl, are you alright?"

Bai Hanyun paused midway up the stairs, then shook her head. "I’m fine. I just need some time to think."

"Alright. Call me if you need anything," the Yang Mirror replied, staring at her thoughtfully as she went upstairs.

Entering her bedroom, Bai Hanyun closed the door and sat down on the arhat bed beside the floor-to-ceiling glass windows.

Hugging a soft pillow, she gazed at the cloudy night sky outside. When she saw the moon hidden behind the clouds, her restless mood gradually settled.

’The wedding ring, the wedding photo, and the young man... Since I was thinking about that handsome uncle, that young man must be his younger self. And the bride in the wedding photo must be his wife. But why does she look eight parts similar to me?’

After a moment of contemplation, Bai Hanyun’s eyes widened in realization.
