The image on the screen is of a maternity ward in a hospital.
On the hospital bed, a pale-faced woman is covered in sweat, her gaze full of love, watching the nurse cut the umbilical cord and pick up the loudly crying baby.
Wah wah!
The baby's cries are very loud and powerful, and the nurse smiles at the woman on the bed: "Congratulations, Miss Zhang, it's a boy, weighing eight and a half pounds, quite a chubby little one."
"Let see!"
The woman looks at the baby, though physically weak, there is an uncontrollable anticipation in her eyes, she struggles to extend her hand to caress the baby's tender face.
"It's a boy. Hmm, we agreed before, if it was a girl, she'd be nad Su Wen, and the boy would be nad Su Jie."
The woman's forehead touches the baby, revealing a radiant smile: "My child, Little Jiejie, call Mommy!"
This woman is none other than Su Jie's biological mother, Zhang Hui.
The baby innocently widens his eyes, seemingly tickled by his mother's falling long hair, his cries grow louder, his small hands unconsciously moving in a tight fist.
"Husband, you, as Emperor Xingyuan, were quite cute when you were young."
In the real world, Han Ruyan smiles knowingly, watching the warm scene on the screen, depicting Su Jie's birth. This line of causation is linked to Su Jie's background.
As she speaks, Han Ruyan takes out her phone and captures this mont on record.
"Taking pictures is going too far!"
Su Jie's mouth twitches slightly, feeling a sense of inexplicable embarrassnt; after all, he is also Emperor Dongxu, doesn't he deserve so dignity!
"Okay then, Little Jiejie."
Han Ruyan mimics Zhang Hui, Su Jie's mother in the video, calling his na similarly.
Su Jie's forehead has a few black lines, sowhat regretting inviting Han Ruyan over.
On the screen, when the ward opens, a thick-browed, bright-eyed man rushes in excitedly, holding the baby Su Jie.
His brows and eyes bear so resemblance to Su Jie; he is Su Jie's biological father. Also present are several elders, Su Jie's grandparents and maternal grandparents.
Su Jie watches the warmth on the screen, recalling his childhood. His mother divorced his father when he was very young, and his father passed away when Su Jie was in high school. Su Jie's mory of his mother is blurry. Of course, given Su Jie's cultivation level, if he wants to explore his mories, he could retrieve them with his brain's mory storage, unlike ordinary people. Su Jie could find past mories, even those from monts after birth.
However, due to his upbringing in a single-parent family, Su Jie instinctively doesn't want to explore these mories.
Wait!
Suddenly, Su Jie looks at the causal line drawn by Han Ruyan.
Could it be that it's not Su Jie who doesn't want to explore, but Su Jie himself is influenced by this causal line, subconsciously ignoring it?
Su Jie furrows his brow, his mind racing.
"Alright, alright, the patient needs rest, everyone leave and don't disturb."
In the ward, the nurse picks up the baby Su Jie and takes him to the nursery.
But a bizarre occurrence happens at this mont. Originally, in the ward where she should be weakly recuperating, Zhang Hui stands up unexpectedly, seemingly changed, her gaze shifting from kindness to calm, even tinged with coldness.
Click!
Zhang Hui, an ordinary woman, now exits the room without any physical discomfort, walking down the hospital corridor.
The patients, doctors, and nurses she encounters seem utterly oblivious to her presence as she walks directly to the nursery and stands before baby Su Jie's cradle.
"This is!"
Han Ruyan's eyes widen; she knows Blue Star to be a spiritless environnt without Su Jie's spiritual energy recovery—it's impossible for cultivators to exist here. Yet this perception is now shattered.
The mother of Su Jie in the image, supposed to be Su Jie's mother, is evidently unusual and defies common logic.
Creak! Creak!
Su Jie clenches his fists tightly, watching the image of the causal line, desperately restraining his emotions.
"Tian Wu, is this your contingency! Your true spirit avatar is imprinted in the Tao River; no matter how many tis you're killed, it's hard to eradicate you completely. Surprisingly, you've housed your true spirit's main root on this planet; no wonder, it's the Immortal Treasure Kunlun Realm's ability."
Mother 'Zhang Hui' curves a demonic smile, eyes fixed on the curious Su Jie in the cradle, emitting a taunting chuckle.
She slowly extends a finger, pointing towards Su Jie's forehead.
"Let see, Tian Wu, what sche are you laying."
Space cracks slightly, chaotic flow of the Tao River surges, and Zhang Hui, in mid-action, has a slight change in expression.
"Hm, surprisingly you're not Tian Wu's reincarnated true spirit!"
Zhang Hui seems imnsely surprised, originally thinking she captured Emperor Tianwu's reincarnated true spirit, only to find she guessed wrong again.
With a flash of killing intent in her eyes, Zhang Hui's five fingers form a claw, grabbing towards baby Su Jie's head.
"Hmph, whatever it is, it has causation entanglent with Tian Wu, let preemptively strangle it."
Zhang Hui's expression indifferent, attempting to crush Su Jie's head with her claw.
Boom!
Space-ti fluctuates, the sky above the hospital changes color dramatically, lightning flashes as if a heaven's eye has opened, an overwhelming pressure fills the air.
"This insignificant spiritless Heavenly Dao wants to stop ."
Zhang Hui's expression remains unchanged, her actions unabated.
In reality, Su Jie's divine soul is alard.
"No good, the causal line is moving."
Han Ruyan hugs Su Jie, feeling his silhouette becoming ghostly, seemingly about to vanish from space, her knowledge and mories of Su Jie rapidly erasing.
