The Tianqi city plaza had never been this crowded in last ten years.
The wide white jade platform gleamed under the morning sun, and ceremonial red banners fluttered like phoenix tails. Children from many families gathered, their parents hovering anxiously behind them. Spiritual qi lingered in the air like glowing mist, drawn downward by the presence of the four sect representatives.
Su Yan stood beside her mother, her long silver-tinted hair cascading to her waist — far too long and far too silky for a five-year-old. With milky cheeks, fluttery lashes, and peach-petal lips, she looked less like a mortal child and more like a celestial fox disguised in human form.
'Honestly… I look like an NPC you can't approach unless your charm stat is 999.Heavens really maxed out my beauty cheat. Now I know why heroine destroyed original owner face later'
Her father squeezed her shoulder gently."Yan'er, don't be nervous."
Nervous?I'm only nervous about how badly today's event ruined my family in the original storyline,but not this time. This time, the protagonist is me.
The Arrival of the Four Great Forces
A ripple tore through the sky as the first figure descended.
1. Azure Sky Sect
Elder Han, Tall, ethereal, silver hair flowing like winter frost. Deep-water blue robes. Sharp glacial eyes that screamed three hundred years of emotional repression.
Elder Han. Ranked No. 3 in 'Top Three Handsome Men.'Hasn't smiled since the previous dynasty.10/10 aesthetics, 0/10 warmth.
He landed without sound, like a snowflake preparing to judge mortals.
A swirl of rose fragrance followed.
2. Crimson Lotus Palace
– Elder Mei, Beautiful enough to make sunlight insecure. Phoenix eyes, crimson lips, and curves wrapped in silk that whispered sin, Oh no. The sect seductress.
'Su Yan thought rubbing her arms as she gazed in other direction. 'Lady, I'm five. Don't smile at me like I'm your next dual-cultivation prospect.'
Then, a cold pressure sliced through the air.
3. Myriad Sword Pavilion
Ling Changhe, Barely twenty yet already looking like a sword immortal. White robes fluttering like snow, black hair tied with a silver thread, and a sword that practically hummed "I'm better than you."
His face was devastatingly perfect. 'Future male lead of heroine's harem, Sorry, sir — the script has changed.'
Finally—
4. Cloudveil Temple
Master Yujin, A young monk with golden eyes and jade-like skin, glowing softly like a lantern of peace.His serenity made even crying toddlers shut up instantly.
Great. Walking spoiler alert.If anyone can tell I transmigrated, it's THIS guy.
The Testing Begins – Prodigies Rise One by One
Children stepped forward and placed their palm on the crystalline sphere. The orb glowed in different colors, announcing their aptitude.
Yu Mingfeng — Top-tier Wood Root
Future alchemy king. Zero romantic awareness. Could walk into a confession and still not notice.
Lu Xiaoxiao — High-grade Water Root
Pretty, sly, future victim of heroine's schemes. Honestly, doesn't look like someone who'll turn crazy for a man. Life is tragic.

Gentle smile, dangerous destiny, Future time-space saintess. Final villain, Absolutely the type who looks polite while plotting world domination.The crowd buzzed louder with each prodigy.
The Original Heroine Arrives
Pink dress fluttering, dimples flashing, peach-blossom eyes dripping with fake innocence.
Su Ling'er glowed like a walking peach-scented protagonist halo.
Ugh. Too sweet. Too sparkly. Toothache-inducing.
She placed her hand on the sphere—BOOOOM!!Five colors burst outward.
"Five Spiritual Roots!!"
The crowd erupted.
Su Ling'er blushed modestly.
Su Yan watched and thought touching her chin 'Girl, your roots were trash until your golden cheat awakened in the novel.But I'm here now.Your ceiling is FIVE. Enjoy.'
Su Yan Steps Forward
Silence fell instantly, Her mother guided her forward, and the elders collectively leaned in as if observing a rare divine artifact.
Even Ling Changhe's cold eyes softened. Several grown cultivators clenched their fists, overwhelmed by the instinct to protect the celestial-looking child.
Silver-tinted hair. Luminous skin. Doe eyes.
A soft glow clung to her like moonlight.
'Yes, yes, keep staring. I know I'm ethereal.It's a burden being this pretty at five years old.'
She reached for the jade sphere— *CRACK*. The orb split just as she focused and touched it.
Gasps rippled.
Thin cracks spiderwebbed across the surface— BOOOOOOM!!! The sphere exploded into spiritual mist.
Sky dimmed. Heaven and Earth qi surged. Silver radiance enveloped Su Yan.
Dual Spiritual Roots Reveal, Two beams shot behind her.
"A silver-white beam.
A silver-blue beam."
Master Yujin's face turned solemn as he squinted his eyes and said -"Celestial Dao Root… paired with Primeval Origin Moon Root… A pair spoken of only in ancient legends."
Elder Mei whispered, voice trembling,"Dual celestial roots… divine beyond classification…"
Heh. Try beating THAT, protagonist halo.
Suddenly, A colossal silver moon phantom formed behind her, petals of lunar light swirling around her like dancing spirits.
The air thickened with sacred lunar qi — pure, holy, cleansing.
Even prodigy children instinctively knelt.
Ling Changhe's sword trembled at his side.
Master Yujin whispered, voice cracking,
"An omen of destiny… A sovereign born under the heavenly moon…"
Su Ling'er took a step back, her face draining of color.
Eternal Moonveil Divine Physique Awakens
Just when everyone thought the phenomenon had ended—
Moonlight burst from Su Yan again.
She floated several inches above the ground, wrapped in shimmering silver luminescence. Ancient runic patterns flickered faintly along her skin like divine tattoos.
Master Yujin fell to his knees.
"T-this… It cannot be…Eternal Moonveil Divine Physique…Lost for a million years…A physique that harmonizes all dao…Its dual cultivation law is sacred —requiring mutual heart-consent, binding for life."
Elder Mei's eyes glowed."She is… the perfect lunar dao partner… a divine treasure…"
Su Yan's eye twitched. 'HELLO?! I am FIVE. Stop chanting dual-cultivation poetry at me!! At least let me pass basic handwriting class first!'
A gentle breeze brushed her cheek.
A faint voice whispered only to her—"The moon chooses its vessel.Walk your path without fear."
Su Ling'er clutched her chest, trembling."That… that should've been… mine…"
Su Yan turned and smiled sweetly, pure as moon water.Yes, darling. It was yours in the original.
But I respawned into your game, Better luck next timeline.
The Plaza Explodes Into Chaos
Clans whispered.
Sect elders exchanged heated looks.
Reclusive family heads calculated alliances.
Everyone stared at Su Yan as if she were a celestial treasure descending from heaven.
The moon phantom slowly faded.
Su Yan drifted down into her mother's arms, wrapping her own around her mother's waist.
Everything has changed.
If the plot shifted this much already…
Then the Su Clan's tragedy won't touch us this time.I'll rewrite everything.This life will be ours.
Her father ruffled her hair proudly. Su Yan smiled, her silver eyes gleaming—And thus, the legend of new prodigies began.
