After chatting with everyone for a while, Lu An, Yao, and Beauty Yang returned to the island together. The injuries on his body had not healed yet, and his body was severely overdrawn. He was very weak and would need to rest for at least a day and a night.
After returning to Sengoku, the injury on his liver was quickly healed by Yao. All he needed to do was rest. However, Lu An did not lie down on the bed. Instead, he sat down on a rock by the waterfall and stared blankly at the rushing waterfall in front of him.
Although Lu An was a persistent person, he was not a stubborn person who would not listen to the words of others. Moreover, the person who advised him was the Lord of Sengoku.
Does fate really exist?
Looking at the roaring waterfall in front of him, Lu An's heart was very calm. It was as if he could not hear anything and was thinking about this matter.
A moment later, a voice sounded in his ear.
"Master, what are you thinking about?"
Lu An was startled and turned to look at Beauty Yang, who was standing beside him.
Lu An did not know if it was because he was tired, or because he was too absorbed in his thoughts, or because he was too relaxed on the island, but he did not even notice Beauty Yang's arrival.
"Sit." Lu An moved to the left and gave up half of the rock. Beauty Yang smiled and sat down next to Lu An.
However, Lu An did not answer Beauty Yang's question. He only frowned slightly and looked at the waterfall in front of him quietly.
"Do you still remember the night we got married?" Beauty Yang looked at Lu An and said softly, "You promised me that you would let me bear all your worries."
Lu An was startled. He turned to look at Beauty Yang and smiled slightly. He told her about fate that the Immortal Master had mentioned.
"Do you believe in fate?" Lu An looked at Beauty Yang and asked doubtfully.
"A little," Beauty Yang said. "Sometimes I believe, sometimes I don't. It doesn't affect me much."
Lu An nodded slightly, but still said doubtfully, "I still don't understand what fate is."
After saying that, Lu An raised his left hand and a nearby rock flew toward him. With a tap of his left hand, the rock split in half and flew toward the waterfall.
"I can do whatever I want," Lu An said. "What kind of restrictions are there? Just like this stone, the one who can decide what it will become is not fate, but me. "
Yang Meiren pondered for a moment, then said softly, "Why can't it be – this rock's fate is that it will never be able to withstand your power?"
"This is a matter of strength." Lu An said seriously, "This is the strength of matter, the strength of power. If even these have to be attributed to fate, then what's the point of cultivation?"
Beauty Yang was slightly startled. She gently nodded and said, "That's why I don't believe in fate. However, the people of the Violet Town Sect seem to believe in fate. Many sects are like this."
Lu An nodded. After a while, he got up and said to Yang Meiren, "Let's go back."
Beauty Yang was stunned. She stood up and asked Lu An, "Have you thought it through?"
"Yes." Lu An nodded and said, "At least for now, I can't convince myself of the existence of fate. I still won't believe it. At least one day, fate will really appear in front of me. Only then will I be able to believe it. Before that, I won't waste my time on this kind of thing. "
Hearing Lu An's words, Beauty Yang smiled happily. If the knot in her heart was not untied, it would more or less affect her cultivation.
"Do you want to eat something?" Beauty Yang said, "The fruits on the island are ripe. I'll bring some for you to try."
Looking at Beauty Yang's frosty and beautiful appearance, Lu An's heart moved. He smiled and leaned over to Beauty Yang's ear, whispering something softly.
Beauty Yang suddenly blushed. Before she could say anything, her body was suddenly held in Lu An's arms and flew towards the wooden house.

Qinglin Island.
A jade-green teleportation portal opened, and a beautiful figure walked out of it. It was Liu Yi.
Until now, there weren't many people on Qinglin Island, but there weren't too few either. Most of them were relatives and friends of the core members of the Ice and Fire Union. Qing Lin Island was very big. If they wanted to live together, it would be fine. If they wanted to live alone, it would definitely be enough. Most of Liu Lan's family had already moved here, including Shuang 'er's mother, Bian Qingliu's family, and of course, Princess Yan Yi and Sheng' er.
In fact, Princess Yan Yi's life on Qinglin Island was very boring.
She had been here for six months. Half a year had passed, but Lu An had never come to see her. Princess Yan Yi's original personality was very unsociable because of her illness. After she recovered, she was very dependent on Lu An. Her thoughts were all on Lu An. After she knew about Lu An's family, she wanted to join, but after she realized the reality, she gave up little by little. She just wanted to stay where she could see Lu An.
She thought Qinglin Island was a good place, but in Princess Yan Yi's eyes, it was just a lonely island.
However, five days ago, when she was walking by the sea, she accidentally saw Liu Yi bring a woman over. This woman was very beautiful and had a completely different style. Even Princess Yan Yi was very envious of her light pink eyes. However, she was very surprised that such a beautiful woman came to Qinglin Island. She thought this woman was in the same situation as her. She liked Lu An but couldn't get him.
Princess Yan Yi took the initiative to stop Liu Yi and took Sheng 'er to live with her. Liu Yi knew that Princess Yan Yi was educated and reasonable. She wasn't arrogant and bossy, so she was relieved to leave Sheng 'er with her.
Reality proved that Liu Yi's decision was right. After Princess Yan Yi understood why Sheng 'er came here and her fate, she was very distressed and helped Sheng' er walk out of her original life. After only five days, Sheng 'er had recovered a lot.
At this moment, while Princess Yan Yi and Sheng 'er were walking together, Princess Yan Yi suddenly stopped and turned to look at the distant sky. Soon, a figure appeared beside her.
"Alliance Head Liu?" Princess Yan Yi was startled. She clearly didn't expect Liu Yi to suddenly appear. She was delighted and quickly asked, "What's the matter? Did Lu An want to see me? "
"…"
Seeing how happy Princess Yan Yi was, Liu Yi could only smile a little awkwardly and say, "I'm here to see Sheng 'er."
Princess Yan Yi was startled and turned to look at Sheng 'er. Sheng 'er was also startled, but she immediately nodded instinctively. Liu Yi was the one who saved her. Although she had only been here for five days, she felt a completely different environment. She was very grateful to Liu Yi.
"Sheng 'er," Liu Yi looked at Sheng' er and said seriously, "I have something to talk to you about."
"Okay," Sheng 'er said softly. She was even somewhat respectful.
When Liu Yi heard this, she looked at Princess Yan Yi and said, "Sorry, she has to leave for a while."
Although Princess Yan Yi was disappointed, she naturally wouldn't delay Liu Yi's work. She nodded and said, "Okay."
Liu Yi left with Sheng 'er and walked toward another beach. Two beautiful women walking on the beach left two rows of footprints. It was the most beautiful scene on Qinglin Island.
"I'm here to tell you something." As they walked, Liu Yi said softly, "Your pink eyes didn't come by chance. They came from the power of your bloodline. Your bloodline comes from a powerful race that disappeared 110,000 years ago. It's called the Mystic God Race. "
Sheng 'er was startled. She stopped and looked at Liu Yi. She was obviously a little confused and didn't understand what Liu Yi was saying.
Liu Yi also stopped. The seawater kept splashing on the beach, making waves. She looked at Sheng 'er and said seriously, "Not only did we find the source of your bloodline, but we also found the power of the Mystic God Race. This power is very powerful. If you accept it, you'll definitely become very powerful. You might even stand at the top of the world. "
"I'm telling the truth. I never joke." Liu Yi looked at Sheng 'er and said, "Now you have to make your own choice. Do you want to inherit this power? I can give you three days to think about it. You just have to give me an answer within three days. "
"Also." Liu Yi continued, "Even if you accept the inheritance, I won't ask you to do anything. You can choose to stay here or leave. We won't interfere. This is Alliance Master Lu's promise to others. You just have to make your choice. You don't have to worry about anything else. "
Liu Yi didn't say anything else. She looked at Sheng 'er quietly. The sea breeze blew their long hair gently. Liu Yi looked very delicate and capable, while Sheng 'er looked very quiet.
"Take your time to think about it." Seeing that Sheng 'er didn't speak for a long time, Liu Yi said, "I'll go back first. I'll look for you in three days."
With that, Liu Yi turned to fly away.
"Please wait!" Sheng 'er suddenly said.
Liu Yi was stunned. She turned around and looked at Sheng 'er again, waiting for her to speak.
"If … I accept the inheritance, can I defeat the Xuanchong Sect?" Sheng 'er looked at Liu Yi with her light pink eyes and asked softly.
"Not at first," Liu Yi said after thinking for a while. "You'll definitely be able to when you've completely absorbed the inheritance."
Sheng 'er's delicate body trembled. She lowered her head and clasped her hands behind her back. Finally, after a few breaths, she looked up and looked at Liu Yi with her beautiful eyes.
"I'm willing to accept the power!" Sheng 'er said with as much force as she could to make herself look more determined. "I'm also willing to follow you forever!"
