"Ah!" She woke abruptly, a throbbing headache pulsing through her head as she realized she was lying on a soft, plush bed.

  "You're awake?" A voice, calm yet ed, came from behind her.

  "Who are you?" she asked, turning to see a figure of a man standing at the door. Her voice was still groggy from just waking up.

  "I am Yun Wuji, the one who saved your life. What is your name?" He introduced himself and asked for hers.

  "My name is... what is my name?" She tilted her head, looking fused. Suddenly, a pained expression crossed her face. "Ah, my head hurts!"

  Yun Wuji shook his head and advised: "If you 't remember, don't think about it. Don't make it difficult for yourself."

  'Amnesia? Cliché!'

  "Do you remember what happeo you?" he tio ask.

  "Mmm, I remember a very stro attag me, and I ran to your pce," she said after p for a moment.

  "And why did you run to my pce?" he asked.

  "I don't know. I just khat if I got to your pce, I would be safe," she replied, a fused look fshing in her eyes. She wao know why, too.

  "..."

  He asked a few more questions and cluded that she had lost all her memories, except for the few moments before she lost sciousness.

  "Alright then, you stay with me until you recover," Wuji added. "Or you leave if you want."

  "Really? Thank you! You are a good person," the woman excimed, grabbing his haedly.

  'Don't give me the good guy card!'

  Wuji noticed that along with her memories, her cold personality had also vanished.

  "Well, now that you're awake, I o perform a check-up." He hadn't touched her earlier when she was unscious; women in this world were too sensitive to such matters. Who knew if she might have reacted badly or even tried to kill herself if he had simply touched her?

  He used his healing light to mend her injuries and the power of the wind to transport her to his room.

  "Ok! What should I do?" She nodded in agreement.

  "Nothing, I just o measure your pulse at your wrist," he expined as he gently took her wrist.

  He was surprised to find that her skin was as cold as ice.

  He infused a strand of profound light strength into her. Soon, his brow furrowed, f a frown.

  The woman saw his expression and started to worry. Was her dition dangerous?

  After iing her body, Wuji discovered a signifit amount of cold air permeating her ans, blood, bone marrow, and dantian.

  If left ued, it will tio severely harm her internal ans and shorten her lifespan to only ohird of its potential.

  Of course, for someone like him, g this wasn't difficult. What made him frown was that these symptoms seemed all too familiar.

  Aren't these the symptoms of the side effects of cultivating the crappy Frozen Cloud Arts?

  Holy, aside from refining the body aures of the cultivator to make them good-looking, it's trash pared to other arts.

  So this woman is a disciple of the Frozen Cloud Immortal Pace.

  With this information, identifying her identity was easy. In fact, he already had a good guess as to who she was.

  Frozen Cloud Immortal Pace, Rank 9 Sky Profound Realm... There's only one person who fits that description.

  Among the disciples of the sect, only the Frozen Cloud Seven Fairies are at the Sky Profound Realm, but none of them have reached the 9th level of the Sky Profound Realm.

  The only pusible expnation is that the head of the fairies has yet to reach the 10th level of the Sky Profound Realm.

  The woman in front of him is certainly Chu Yue.

  'Really, my genius is almost frightening. Maybe I should sider a career ge to detective,' he thought to himself.

  "How is it? Is there hope for me?" Her voice brought him back from his deep thoughts.

  "Don't worry, I don't mean t, but there's no oer than me on this p when it es to healing," Wuji reassured her, sensing her nervousness. "Your dition has already stabilized. You just o rest for a while."

  "As for your memory loss, I deduced that you may need some stimution," he added.

  "Stimution?" The woman tilted her head cutely.

  Yun Wuji looked at her, uo recile the cold Chu Yue from earlier with the clueless woman in front of him.

  "What I mean is that you might o stimute your memory, for example, seeing someone you used to know, like your family or a friend," he expined slowly.

  "Really? I'm not going to die? You're not lying, right?" The woman squeezed his hands nervously as she asked.

  "Of course not!" he reassured her, patting her hand.

  "Thank you, senior. You're really a good person!" The clueless woman once again delivered to him the good person card.

  "Don't call me senior!" Bck lines appeared on his forehead when he heard her call him that again.

  "Why? What should I call you then?" She asked, genuinely fused. isn't senior, senior?

  "I'm still young, you just call me by my name," Yun Wuji replied casually.

  "Alright, rest for now. Tomorrow I'll che you again," he said, standing up and leaving the room.

  As she watched him leave, a wave of loneliness washed over her. She wao spend more time with him. Since losing her memories, he was the only person she could truly trust. The few memories she had left were all about him.

  Unsciously, she began to develop a sense of dependen him.

  Imagine waking up with no memories, except for a few scattered ones about a man who once saved you. Thehe first person you see when yain sciousness. Wouldn't you naturally develop some level of dependen him?

  Leaving the room, he moved to the living area aled cross-legged. He had built the house on a whim, a simple structure with only one room, now occupied by Chu Yue.

  There are a few reasons why he went to such lengths to help her. The most obvious one is that she's a beautiful woman, and he's in his teens now—a time when his body is full of vigor. The sed, and most important reason, is that she's a member of the Frozen Cloud Immortal Pace, which could help him fe a e with Mu Bingyun.

  Closing his eyes, he focused on his veins, currently at the 4th level of the Profound Sky Realm.

  His rate of growth was astonishing—few would believe someone could advahrough three realms ihan three months.

  However, Wuji didn't find it particurly remarkable. During this period, his main focus had been on mastering his eique.

  As for cultivation, he had alrogressed swiftly. In fact, if he didn't have to breakthrough the additional levels in each realm, he would have surpassed the Sn Profound Realm and stepped on the divine way a long time ago.

  But he didn't feel that he was losing, because each additional level increased his foundation whi turn increased his battle strength.

  At his current level, he could effortlessly crush any Overlord and tend with early-stage Monarchs. However, he khis superiority would diminish as his realm rose.

  There is a huge differeween the realms of cultivation in this world, and the further you go, the more so.

  Simir to Yun Che, who could kill early-stage Overlords when he was in the Sky Realm, his dominance faded as he stepped on the divih. Eventually, he could only fight those who are a major realm higher than his own.

  He could crush Divine Master when he was a Divine S —a feat unparalleled and unmatched by others.

  The ability to battle across realms bees increasingly harder. In the whole novel, only Tian Guhu showed the ability to fight across realms.

  "It's time to leave this pce," he muttered, opening his eyes.

  There was no longer any reason for him to stay; he had po leave ever since he entered a bottlene his teique.

  'Perhaps the Phoenix Trial on Trial help.'
