Lin Jiufeng accepted the supplements.

He thought for a long time.

But he still couldn't figure out who this Miss Hong was.

'Damn it. How annoying. I just can't remember.'

In the end, he gave up on trying to guess her identity.

Since this Miss Hong clearly had her own motives, she would definitely appear once again. At that time, Lin Jiufeng would know who she was.

"My top priority now is still to make a breakthrough into the next stage."

Lin Jiufeng's body disappeared in front of the entrance to the Cold Palace.

He resumed his routine of signing in quietly.

He signed in every day.

Miss Hong's subordinates didn't show up at the Cold Palace anymore.

Miss Hong herself never appeared in front of Lin Jiufeng.

It was as if this Miss Hong didn't even exist in the first place.

Fortunately, Lin Jiufeng was never a curious person.

If Miss Hong didn't appear, his life wouldn't change at all.

He would continue to sign in, cultivating, and making breakthroughs in peace.

On this day, Lin Jiufeng stood in front of the courtyard gate.

His body stood long and straight.

He wore a purple coat and when it was paired with the pink shade of the cherry tree, the scene seemed to be depicted in a painting that had come to life.

Meow!

The white cat stood on the courtyard wall and watched silently.

Today, Lin Jiufeng was somewhat depressed.

The white cat didn't know what happened.

It calculated the time.

It seemed that Lin Jiufeng would always be depressed on this specific day and month every year.

Do men have some kind of mechanism that makes them depressed for a few days every year?

The white cat jumped off the courtyard walls and came in front of Lin Jiufeng.

It wrote and asked…

"You're always in a bad mood on this specific day and month every year. Why?"

Lin Jiufeng glanced at the white cat.

Then, he looked at the cherry tree.

With his hands behind his back, he replied faintly, "Because today is my younger brother's death anniversary."

The white cat looked at Lin Jiufeng curiously.

It wrote and asked curiously, "You actually have a younger brother?"

The white cat had always thought that Lin Jiufeng was a loner.

"Silly cat, if I don't have a younger brother, why is Emperor Lin Tianyuan calling me Uncle then?" Lin Jiufeng replied, speechless.

The white cat looked vexed.

It covered its eyes with its claws and cried at its own stupidity.

"How long has your brother been dead?" The white cat changed the subject, not wanting to embarrass itself.

Lin Jiufeng pointed with his finger and said, "This cherry tree was planted in the courtyard when he passed away. Back then, it was just a sapling. But now, it's already so tall and strong."

Lin Jiufeng looked sad when he said all of these.

In this world, other than the martial path that interested him…

There was someone else whom Lin Jiufeng held valuable in his heart.

It was Emperor Yuan—the Emperor Yuan who had always referred to him as, 'Big Brother'.

His understanding of Emperor Yuan was even better than Lin Tianyuan.

After all, they were born an entire generation apart.

Thus, they couldn't communicate with each other that well.

It has been about a decade or two since Emperor Yuan died, Lin Jiufeng would usually be depressed every year on this specific day and month.

But he could usually control his emotions.

As long as he didn't think about it, it wouldn't hurt him.

But today was different.

When Lin Jiufeng saw this cherry tree, his thoughts instantly churned and he found it hard to suppress them.

This cherry tree was just a sapling when it was planted back then.

But today, he realized that it had already grown so big.

It was then when it struck him—his younger brother had already died many years ago.

Lin Jiufeng wasn't in the mood to cultivate today.

He turned around and left.

Meow ~

The white cat immediately called out.

"I'm going to see my younger brother. Guard the Cold Palace well." Lin Jiufeng strode out.

Meow!

The white cat instead followed him closely behind.

It leaped onto Lin Jiufeng's broad shoulders and curled up.

Lin Jiufeng didn't mind and he brought the white cat with him to the Imperial Cemetery.

The past Emperors of the Yuhua God Dynasty were buried here.

Lin Jiufeng's father and Emperor Yuan were buried here too.

Lin Jiufeng's father's tomb was huge and luxurious.

It was built by Emperor Yuan for him back then.

When it came to Emperor Yuan's own tomb, although it was also grand, it was really shabby compared to his father's tomb.

Lin Jiufeng stood in front of Emperor Yuan's tomb.

He looked at the various tombs surrounding Emperor Yuan, his thoughts running wild.

"I've always been taking care of your son. He was a little reckless and made some mistakes, but I helped him correct them. However, it's a pity that his body can no longer live to a ripe old age."

In front of Emperor Yuan's tomb, Lin Jiufeng felt guilty.

After all, Lin Tianyuan was the person that Emperor Yuan chose.

As his uncle, Lin Jiufeng said that he would take care of him, but Lin Tianyuan only have about 40 years to live.

"Your reforms are basically completed. After Lin Tianyuan suffered through that previous setback, he finally knows how to properly manage the Yuhua God Dynasty. You don't have to worry anymore."

"Today, I noticed that the cherry tree that I planted the year you passed away is now towering and strong."

Lin Jiufeng was usually so focused on his cultivation that he didn't pay much attention to such things.

"You've been gone for almost 20 years now." Lin Jiufeng stood up straight.

He looked at Emperor Yuan's tomb and sighed.

As he reminisced, Lin Jiufeng talked a lot. He even helped Emperor Yuan clean up his tomb.

Finally, he stood in front of the tombstone and bowed deeply.

[Do you want to Sign-In before Emperor Yuan's tomb?]

Lin Jiufeng was stunned.

He could even Sign-In here?

What kind of powerful and evil place was this?

But Lin Jiufeng thought that he would be a fool not to sign in, so he still agreed.

[Sign-In successful. Received Fate Changing Technique!]

Lin Jiufeng was stunned when he saw this.

"What's this Fate Changing Technique?" Lin Jiufeng thought, dumbfounded.

Boom!

A vast stream of information entered Lin Jiufeng's mind. It was instantly absorbed by him.

A minute later, Lin Jiufeng opened his eyes and looked at Emperor Yuan's tomb in surprise.

[The Fate Changing Technique can change the life of a powerful cultivator into that of a weak cultivator, changing one's fate.]

The introduction was simple, but it revealed a lot of information.

"Can I exchange someone else's life for a dead person's?" Lin Jiufeng asked excitedly.

If it could be done, the Emperor Yuan that he had always missed could be resurrected.

[Host has to figure it out on your own, this is not a simple matter!]

Lin Jiufeng smiled. "Of course, I know that it's not a simple matter, but it's fine. To let Emperor Yuan see the light of the day again, I will do my best."

Lin Jiufeng always felt that Emperor Yuan's death was a great pity.

Now that there was a sliver of hope for his resurrection, he wanted to give it a try.

[Forcefully changing one's fate will incur the wrath of the heavens!]

Lin Jiufeng ignored this sentence.

He knelt and reached out to wipe the dust on Emperor Yuan's tombstone. Then, he said firmly. "You wait here for your Big Brother. Big Brother will definitely let you wake up to this brilliant world once again, so you can see the new world after that rain."

Emperor Yuan was very talented, comparable to the previous Lin Jiufeng.

Once he was revived, he would definitely stand out in this brand new world.

On the day of his resurrection, the Yuhua God Dynasty would no longer need his protection.

With this thought in mind, Lin Jiufeng stood up.

He turned around and walked away in large strides.

He wanted to go back and make a breakthrough into the realm beyond the Human God Realm as soon as possible. He wanted to see for himself what lied beyond the unknown. At the same time, he also wanted to take a closer look at the Fate Changing Technique.

It was absolutely impossible to revive someone who had been dead for almost 20 years without sufficient strength and capability.

'I want to surpass the Immortal Treasury stage!' Lin Jiufeng said firmly to himself.

On the journey from the Imperial Cemetery to the Cold Palace, Lin Jiufeng walked firmly and continuously.

Boom!

As soon as he entered the Cold Palace, Lin Jiufeng's body trembled.

He broke through and arrived at the next stage.

He had accumulated and consolidated his cultivation base for so long to the point that the only detail that held him back was a certain regret in his heart. When this regret of his was resolved after this visit to the Imperial Cemetery—he naturally broke through.
