Ning Yu was stunned by what she heard, wondering if such miraculous things could really happen.
However, she herself had a mysterious system, so her acceptance of such supernatural occurrences was relatively high.
After pondering for a moment, Ning Yu seemed to think of something. She went to get some bottles and walked back to Shen Yiyue's side, saying:
"I'll throw these bottles, and you try to hit them while they're moving."
Seeing Ning Yu's serious expression, Shen Yiyue realized that Ning Yu didn't think she had lost her mind.
"Alright."
She nodded and took a ready stance, raising her gun.
Ning Yu first threw a bottle at normal speed.
"Bang!"
The bottle was hit mid-flight by Shen Yiyue's shot, bouncing away on a different trajectory.
"Again!"
This time Ning Yu increased the speed.
"Bang!"
Even the accelerated bottle was undoubtedly hit by Shen Yiyue.
Things started getting more and more bizarre.
Ning Yu noticed that Shen Yiyue didn't seem to be making any effort to aim or track the bottles' trajectories.
What was going on?
This time she used her full strength, launching the bottle at an extremely high speed.
At this velocity, the bottle could probably hurt someone if it hit them.
Shen Yiyue's eyes weren't even looking at the bottle; instead, she was focused on her gun, moving it to a specific angle before pulling the trigger.
"Bang!"
Even this extremely fast bottle was hit in mid-air once again.
Now Ning Yu had no doubts left - even she couldn't guarantee hitting targets at such speeds.
Had they stumbled upon something extraordinary?
But what kind of ability was this? Perfect accuracy? Future sight?
It didn't seem to exactly match Shen Yiyue's description.
Shen Yiyue lowered her gun, wearing an expression that screamed 'Look at me! Look at me!' as she excitedly waved her hands and said:
"Yu! I think I'm super amazing!"
Even she found her own performance incredible.
Ning Yu walked up to her and patted her head, as if comforting a child.
"I feel like you're treating me like a kid!"
Shen Yiyue immediately protested, moving her head away in objection.
"If you can hit perfectly with a gun, what about a sword? Let's try it."
Ning Yu ignored her protest, acting like a meticulous engineering student wanting to conduct further experiments.
She pointed at Shen Yiyue's long sword.
So Shen Yiyue picked up the sword's scabbard, not daring to use the actual blade for fear of hurting Ning Yu.
"Come on~"
As if returning to their usual training sessions, Shen Yiyue attacked with the scabbard, swinging it at Ning Yu repeatedly.
However, Ning Yu dodged all the attacks.
"It's not working, Yu. I'm not seeing those reversed images with the sword. It feels just like regular training."
Shen Yiyue shook her head.
Ning Yu thought for a moment, then suggested another possibility:
"Maybe the scabbard doesn't count as a weapon. Try using the actual blade."
"No way, Yu, this could turn fatal..."
Shen Yiyue became worried and wanted to refuse. If she actually wounded Ning Yu, it would break her heart.
"Oh? Are you suggesting you could hurt me so easily?"
Ning Yu raised an eyebrow, seemingly sparked by an odd sense of competition.
She extended her delicate hand in a "come on" gesture and called out playfully:
"Just bring it on. If you actually manage to wound me, it'll be a good chance to feed the sword some blood."
Hearing Ning Yu's words, Shen Yiyue admired her boldness but hesitated no longer.
Picking up the gleaming sword, Shen Yiyue shouted:
"Watch out!"
She charged forward with quick slashing attacks, while Ning Yu gracefully dodged each movement, easily avoiding Shen Yiyue's attacks.
After a few strikes, they both stopped.
"Looks like the sword really doesn't work. Could it be because of the weapon type? Maybe you should try pointing the gun at me..."
"Absolutely not!"
Shen Yiyue became angry the moment she heard Ning Yu's dangerous suggestion:
"Yu, what are you thinking? I can't shoot at you, no way!"
"Besides, it's not like you could catch bullets even if I did."
She puffed up her cheeks in anger, refusing to agree.
"I'm just joking, silly."
Ning Yu suddenly smiled and waved her hand dismissively, though a barely noticeable glint of satisfaction flashed in her eyes.
"Let's try a different approach..."
Before Shen Yiyue could react, she felt her sword being taken away.
"Yu... what are you going to do?"
This time Ning Yu had snatched the sword from Shen Yiyue's hands, smiling with an ominous gleam in her eyes.
The bright moon hung in the background, casting light on Ning Yu's back and leaving her face in shadow, creating an eerie atmosphere.
"What else? I'm going to beat you up, of course. Let's see if your strange ability triggers when you're defending."
Ning Yu swung the scabbard, attacking at incredible speed.
"Waaaaaah! Help! This is domestic violence!"
Shen Yiyue cried out and began frantically dodging as Ning Yu wielded the scabbard in a storm of attacks.
However, a miraculous scene unfolded - Shen Yiyue managed to dodge everything perfectly.
Ning Yu's expression turned excited, realizing it was working.
"Yu! It's working! I can see those reversed images, and I just need to follow them to dodge!"
Shen Yiyue was jumping around awkwardly, but Ning Yu hadn't managed to land a single hit.
"Then I'll speed up."
Ning Yu's warning sent a chill down Shen Yiyue's spine:
Wait... you weren't using full power?
Suddenly, the scabbard's movements became even faster, leaving afterimages throughout the small apartment.
Shen Yiyue could barely keep up with this speed and dodge, but her stamina was clearly running low, with beads of sweat forming on her forehead.
"I surrender! I surrender!"
She felt herself reaching her physical limit and hurriedly called for mercy.
However, Ning Yu had no intention of stopping, eager to test the limits of this mysterious ability. The scabbard showed no signs of slowing down.
Finally, after a while longer, Shen Yiyue couldn't keep up anymore. Facing Ning Yu's final strike, her vision blurred, and she simply closed her eyes, waiting for the hit.
However, the expected strike never came - the scabbard stopped right in front of her face.
Shen Yiyue was breathing heavily, feeling like her earlier shower had been pointless as she was now covered in sweat from the intense exercise.
Across from her, Ning Yu stood holding the weapon, showing slight signs of perspiration, with a strand of silver hair sticking to her beautiful profile. She elegantly brushed away the clinging strands.
Shen Yiyue rested for a moment, wanting to grab her sparkling water as the sudden exercise had made her thirsty.
"Yu, I think that's enough... Ah!!!"
But her foot accidentally stepped on one of the bottles they had shot earlier.
She fell backward suddenly, arms flailing wildly, managing to grab onto Ning Yu who was about to speak.
Thud!
She successfully pulled Ning Yu down to the floor with her, though she hit the ground first.
Ning Yu fell right on top of her, landing in her embrace.
Pure moonlight streamed into the dim apartment, illuminating only the space near the open balcony door, where two sweating girls lay fallen.
Under the moonlight, Ning Yu and Shen Yiyue faced each other at an unprecedented proximity.
Both girls' eyes widened, their small mouths slightly parted as they caught their breath, gazing into each other's eyes.
For a moment, everything was perfectly still, and the moon was especially beautiful that night.

nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
