Zhan Shen: It’s Just a Sacrifice, How Can I Become a Villain?

418: Past Events of YaochiAs the gate opened, a beautiful woman wearing a gold-embroidered purple divine robe and a Phoenix Wing Golden Crown appeared in the Medicinal Pill Hall.

The beautiful woman had a dignified demeanor, and her brows held infinite elegance.

Galan’s expression instantly became excited when she saw that figure.

”Maid Galan, greets Queen Mother of the West!”

Seeing Galan bow, Lin Qi Ye and Cao Yuan were also incredibly shocked, never imagining they could meet the legendary Queen Mother of the West.

”Junior Lin Qi Ye, greets Queen Mother of the West!”

”Junior Cao Yuan, greets Queen Mother of the West!”

Queen Mother of the West looked at Galan, her eyes filled with gentle affection, the love in her gaze completely undisguised.

”Galan, you’ve returned after all!”

Although Queen Mother of the West’s tone was joyful, it carried a hint of sadness.

Galan, however, paid no mind to these things and scurried into the Medicinal Pill Hall.

Lin Qi Ye and Cao Yuan also followed and arrived at the entrance of the Medicinal Pill Hall.

Queen Mother of the West glanced at the two, her gaze lingering on Lin Qi Ye, sizing him up carefully, much like a mother-in-Law examining her son-in-Law.

Lin Qi Ye felt a bit awkward from being stared at, but since the other party was Queen Mother of the West, he couldn’t very well ask questions.

”Mother!” Galan mumbled softly, seemingly urging her.

After a long look, Queen Mother of the West sighed, glanced at Galan, and sighed, ”A daughter grows up and can’t be kept at home!”

Galan’s face instantly turned red, wishing she could find a hole to crawl into.

Lin Qi Ye also felt a bit embarrassed, when suddenly Cao Yuan said, ”Mother, Lin Qi Ye and Galan are a match made in heaven.

From my perspective as an experienced man, I doubt there’s a more compatible couple in this world.”

Even Queen Mother of the West was stunned by Cao Yuan’s shocking words.

She looked at Cao Yuan and said with a somewhat complex tone, ”I never thought this current Black King would have such a rich emotional history.”

Cao Yuan’s heart jolted, but then he thought that since the other party was a Deity, it shouldn’t be difficult for her to see through his secrets.

”Queen Mother of the West flatters me. Although I’ve experienced the Mortal World, it’s a pity I’ve never truly comprehended the true meaning. Long confined within a cage, I’ve never found the path to return to simplicity.”

Ever since Cao Yuan entered Yaochi, a strange feeling had arisen in his heart, a feeling he couldn’t quite describe or explain, but he could vaguely sense that perhaps an Opportunity lay within Yaochi.

”Come in!” Queen Mother of the West put away the smile on her face.

After receiving permission from the owner of the place, Lin Qi Ye and Cao Yuan also stepped into the Medicinal Pill Hall.

”Mother...” Galan was about to speak but was interrupted by Queen Mother of the West.

”I already know the purpose of your trip.” Queen Mother of the West affectionately stroked Galan’s head, a sentence hidden in her heart.

In truth, she had long been waiting for this day to arrive.

”You two rest in the hall; I’ll go retrieve the Medicinal Pill for you.”

With that, Queen Mother of the West walked towards a side door, temporarily leaving the area.

Seeing Queen Mother of the West leave, Lin Qi Ye’s curiosity could no longer be contained.

”Galan, you’re actually a fairy from Yaochi?” Lin Qi Ye asked.

The blush on Galan’s face had not completely faded. She nodded gently and said,

”That’s right, this is my home.”

Lin Qi Ye felt a surge of emotion, never imagining that Galan truly came from Yaochi.

”But why does this Yaochi Wonderland seem a bit desolate?” Cao Yuan asked.

Lin Qi Ye also had the same question in his heart. Since entering the Yaochi Secret Realm, they hadn’t encountered any other living beings apart from Queen Mother of the West.

This was truly too strange. Besides some flowers and plants, there wasn’t even a single animal here, let alone the legendary immortal cranes or immortal deer, or other spiritual birds and exotic beasts.

A hint of sadness appeared in Galan’s eyes. She slowly said,

”Because a chaotic battle once took place here.”

Lin Qi Ye and Cao Yuan didn’t interrupt Galan, listening quietly from the side.

”Roughly three thousand years ago, Cthulhu evil gods invaded Yaochi.”

”Cthulhu?” Lin Qi Ye and Cao Yuan were a bit surprised. Due to the outbreak of the fishing village incident, the Night Watcher had already disclosed some information about the Cthulhu evil gods.

However, upon hearing Galan’s words, Lin Qi Ye and Cao Yuan still couldn’t help but be surprised, never imagining that Cthulhu had engaged in battle with the Great Xia Gods three thousand years ago.

Galan nodded and continued,

”That time, the Cthulhu evil gods, through some unknown method, disguised themselves as various immortal birds and exotic beasts. The most terrifying thing was that their disguises actually deceived the Kunlun Mirror.

On that day, blood covered the ground in Yaochi Wonderland. Mother led us in a fierce fight against the enemy.

Unfortunately, during the retreat to the Medicinal Pill Hall, Mother, fearing she couldn’t withstand the Cthulhu evil gods’ attack, ordered me to take an Elixir of Immortality to preserve a Bloodline for Yaochi.

I was sent out of Yaochi Wonderland by Mother using a secret technique and was delivered to Fengdu by Huo Qubing, the then head of the Town Evil Division, where I fell into a deep slumber.”

Lin Qi Ye finally understood why Galan’s Forbidden Territory was so powerful; it was all thanks to the Elixir of Immortality.

”Then your current Realm...”

Galan smiled slightly, ”I’m waiting for the Law of Immortality to be completely perfected.”

Lin Qi Ye and Cao Yuan gasped in cold air after hearing Galan’s words.

Waiting for the power of Law to be perfected? Doesn’t that mean Galan has already stepped halfway into the God Realm?

Galan’s combat performance had always been in a strange state: her strength was unknown, and she grew stronger with stronger opponents.

It seemed like she was always evenly matched with any enemy.

Before, in Fengdu Ghost City, facing the attacks of the Egyptian Gods, she couldn’t be harmed in the slightest.

As for Galan joining the team, she had acted as a tank in many missions, helping the team achieve many victories.

It turned out that his own team had such an awesome existence, and what was even more awesome was that this person was his girlfriend!

Lin Qi Ye suddenly felt a surge of emotion. It seemed that being a kept man wasn’t so bad after all.

See? He could enter Yaochi all thanks to Galan’s connections.

At this moment, Cao Yuan suddenly asked, ”Since Queen Mother of the West wanted to leave a Legacy for Yaochi back then, why didn’t she give you both the Elixir of Immortality and the Elixir of Immortality at the same time?

These two Medicinal Pills should be of the same Rank, right?”

Galan nodded and explained, ”You’re right, but these two Medicinal Pills cannot be taken simultaneously.”

”Why?” Lin Qi Ye asked.

Just taking one Medicinal Pill could allow Galan to step into the God Realm. If two Medicinal Pills were taken at the same time, wouldn’t it bring an even greater improvement?

”Because these two Medicinal Pills were originally one! The name of this Medicinal Pill is the Elixir of Immortality and Immortality.” Galan calmly explained.

”What? They were originally the same Medicinal Pill?”

Lin Qi Ye and Cao Yuan simultaneously showed shocked expressions. Since they were the same Medicinal Pill, why did they become two?
