Master Shenxuan was not surprised to hear Quan Ji's question; it seemed that everything was within his calculations.
He looked up at Quan Ji and said slowly, "Because of Ragnarok, because of... the existence of taboos."
Ragnarok.
The existence of taboos.
Quan Ji was actually very familiar with these two concepts, having heard them countless times, but each time she heard them, she still felt vaguely confused, as if she only had a partial understanding.
She said, "I know that Ragnarok is because of the division of power among the gods in the past. Could it be that I also perished during Ragnarok in my previous life?"
Master Shenxuan nodded: "Yes."
Quan Ji pursed her lips, her heart filled with many questions: "According to you, in my previous life I was the most supreme being among the gods. Why did I die, and why were the gods who lived in harmony with the world divided?"
Master Shenxuan stared at Quan Ji and said mysteriously, "Because of you."
Quan Ji was taken aback, and so was Jun Chenlan.
Although Jun Chenlan's memories have awakened to some extent, they are not complete. He only knows that he was once a god... but he is not sure what kind of god he was.
However, he was certain that he knew the young lady in his previous life and had an excellent relationship with her.
Therefore, it is the will of Heaven that allowed them to meet again in this life.
He could also sense that his fall in his previous life was related to the young lady and the abyss, but as for the rest... he didn't know.
He doesn't seem to have fallen during Ragnarok; he fell much earlier... A voice kept telling him not to let Quan Ji continue on this path.
The interpretation of his fortune stick led him to go against his own conscience and choose to believe in this so-called "fate".
At this moment, Quan Ji pointed to her face and asked Master Shenxuan, "Do you mean that the source of Ragnarok is me?"
Master Shenxuan then stopped revealing information, his face remaining expressionless. He said, "When you become a god again, all the truths will come to light... But right now, everything about you is related to taboos, and your every move is influencing fate. I cannot reveal too much."
"But I can tell you... the young lady has never done anything wrong, nor have the gods. The only variable is the power of the abyss, which does not belong to this world."
Quan Ji was completely confused and thought that this Master Shenxuan was really talking nonsense.
But she understood a little bit.
That's all she can know right now; knowing too much would have irreversible consequences for the course of events.
So she stopped asking.
She didn't think she could bear the consequences that even the "emperor" of that time hadn't been able to.
The only thing that can be confirmed is that the truth is gradually coming to light, and her life in this life is different from her life before she was reborn.
The power of the abyss arrived earlier in this life than in the previous one.
So, everything about her is related to taboo, meaning she's connected to the Abyss? Is the Abyss taboo? Or... is she the taboo?
She had initially thought it was just a butterfly effect, but now, Quan Ji was less certain.
She pursed her lips, her gaze fixed on Master Shenxuan.
She suddenly had a question and asked, "Then what kind of role do you play? Why are you able to reveal all this without being affected by taboos?"
Master Shenxuan chuckled softly: "This old monk is merely a wisp of thought from when a god fell five hundred years ago. Destiny is to guide you on the path to the truth. Therefore, I have cultivated Buddhism for five hundred years, transcending the law of cause and effect, and awaiting your arrival."
"Now that my task is complete, I have laid the groundwork for you. You only need to follow your heart, and the truth will gradually unfold along your journey. This is the result."
"No life can escape the control of the laws of nature, nor can it escape cause and effect."
"My fruit... has arrived."
After saying this, Master Shenxuan closed his eyes, and the Buddhist light around him gradually weakened, like a dying candle flame, while his life force grew weaker and weaker.
Quan Ji's eyes widened immediately, realizing that Master Shenxuan might be about to die, and she quickly said, "Wait... I have something else to tell you!"
Master Shenxuan opened his eyes again and looked at Quan Ji: "Is there anything else, Miss? This old monk is willing to help you resolve another concern."
Quan Ji shook her head, and suddenly a peach blossom petal appeared in her palm.
The moment Master Shenxuan saw the peach blossom petals, an expression of disbelief appeared on his withered face.
Suddenly, as if sensing a strange power, the petals, imbued with spirituality, burst forth with a burst of pink light in all directions.
A stunningly beautiful young girl appeared, with a flower-bud hairstyle, wearing a pink dress, and a face as lovely as a peach blossom. She was beautiful and youthful, and as she floated in mid-air, she was like a fairy descending to earth, making everyone's heart flutter.
The pink glow carried the tranquil fragrance of peach blossoms, a delightful aroma that wafted through the air. Petals swirled around the girl, light and airy, a beauty beyond compare.
At that moment, Master Shenxuan seemed to return to the bewildered time when he did not yet understand his mission.
At that time, he thought he was just a simple orphan, studying hard every day so that he could have a better life in the future.
One day, while strolling through the peach blossom grove, he discovered a small peach tree. Being a scholar, he composed a poem to praise the tree, and thus... he formed a bond with the peach blossoms.
Later, when he was studying, peach blossoms would always flutter around him.
Then, an unexpected young girl entered his life.
The moment he saw the girl, he knew she was his little peach blossom.
He fell in love with his little peach blossom at first sight.
He never minded that she was a demon.
Cupid stopped them and gave them a lantern.
