Bai Meng knew what had happened and rushed from home, arriving at the hospital as soon as he could.
Seeing Bai Zhi, Bai Meng’s brow furrowed deeply. Her condition was terrible. Even if they could start over, could they really not change anything?
He refused to believe it. Back then, Bai Dan was willing to trade his own life for a chance at rebirth for both Bai Zhi and the Bai Family.
He had paid the same price to reverse time, only to encounter an unforeseen complication.
Bai Zhi’s soul was gone, and he had no choice but to search for it, scouring thousands of rivers and mountains.
At the exact same moment for Bai Zhi, her soul returned.
Thus, it all began anew.
But he could only watch, unable to intervene anymore.
Now, did he have to repeat the sacrifices of his past life?
He even remembered that in his past life, Bai Dan, with Bai Zhi, whose bones were all broken, found him.
With just one sentence.
"Master, I’m sorry, please forgive my selfishness, I am willing to give everything for Bai Da, but Xingxing is gone. Just because I wanted the Bai Family to be well, I didn’t interfere. I can’t accept this reality, I am willing to use my soul as a sacrifice to bring back Xingxing... Sorry I failed to protect the Bai Family."
Bai Meng slowly closed his eyes. In his past life, after losing Bai Zhi, the secrets of the Bai Family were soon discovered, especially with Nan Xi being so ostentatious, making no attempt to conceal the secret of that space.
They were all responsible for the passing of Bai Zhi. She and the Bai Family were closely intertwined...
So he flipped through the Bai Family’s archives, with his own cultivation and Bai Dan’s lifespan, he gave his all.
Using the Jade Pendant to allow Bai Zhi to start over, he stepped through the door of time, bringing about changes.
His days were numbered...
"Bai Dan, perhaps we are about to fail, but I will never allow it."
Even though Bai Dan was unaware of everything in this moment, it did not affect his determination to save Bai Zhi.
"Little Han, tell Li Mo that Bai Zhi has been moved to the intensive care unit and no one should be allowed in. Bai Dan, take Bai Zhi and come back with me; we’re going to the Bai Family residence. I hope the heavens, considering the millennia of protection by the Bai Family, will give us another chance."
Without any hesitation, Bai Meng took out his Golden Needle and began pricking Bai Zhi with it, her young body covered in golden needles.
Old Han understood the gravity of the situation at this point.
"There’s another issue. If we could get hold of another Jade Pendant and..."
Before Bai Meng could finish, Bai Dan produced the Jade Pendant that Moh Li had just given him, placing it in Bai Meng’s palm.
"This was just now, Moh Li secretly gave it to me; I think he knows a bit too, knowing this would be useful for Bai Zhi."
Bai Dan was relieved and calmly took it from him.
"This is it. Bai Dan, find a way to get Moh Li to come up the mountain with you, and we’ll try again. I refuse to believe that we can’t bring Bai Zhi back."
Bai Meng clenched his teeth—he refused to believe that heaven truly wanted to destroy their Bai Family.
Bai Zhi’s consciousness was very fuzzy, and at the moment, she felt her soul starting to drift away.
Perhaps the idea that a soul weighs 21 grams carried some significance after all.
She seemed to see her grandfather from her past life, who dived under the wheels to save her, carrying her, barely alive, to the mountains to meet the Ancestor.
Then it seemed like there was some sort of sacrificial ritual, and then she saw her grandfather die...
"Bai Dan, if you are willing to trade your life for Bai Zhi to have another life, then why can’t I, Bai Meng, give up a hundred years of cultivation for the Bai Family’s last chance at survival."
