The Fire of Love the Great Goddess

Eps. 2: Waking up from a Dream

The edge of Mirror Lake, the residence of the Great God Ming Ye.

Bai Feng Xian felt his entire body ache. A cold chill pierced through his skin that was filled with bloody wounds.

Slowly he opened his eyes, looking at the dark sky with the moon hanging in the highest sky. Flashes of heartbreaking memory flashed in his memory, leaving his entire soul torn to shreds.

He woke up on the edge of Ming Ye's Mirror Lake. The lake reflected the moonlight, with water ripples surging slowly. Bai Feng Xian's body was lying on top of a soft green grass.

A long-haired light blue-robed immortal, whose face always looked younger to someone his age widened his eyes the moment he saw him lying on the ground with wounds all over his body.

“Bai Feng Xian! What happened to you?”

Ming Ye hurried over to Bai Feng Xian. The Great God had an extremely calmness, but upon seeing his best friend's daughter lying covered in wounds, all of her calmness disappeared.

Bai Feng Xian tried to get up. His throat was itchy and he was spitting out coughing up blood. His breathing was still not regular and his expression was extremely pitiful.

“Help me standing,” said Bai Feng Xian.

Thankfully, he returned to the Mirror Lake. If Bai Feng Xian were to return to Qingqiu, his father and mother would be furious.

At least with Ming Ye's help, he could recuperate for a few days before he returned to his original place. The pain in his chest and in his heart was still so agonizing, making all his bloody wounds turn into pus.

Ming Ye looked pityfully at the woman. Although he did not know what Bai Feng Xian had gone through to end up like this, but he also did not want to ask.

Bai Feng Xian had always loved to wander for thousands of years, to the point that news from him was often unheard of. What he went through this time must not be something good to discuss again.

"Is it spring now?" bai Feng Xian asked, trying to endure all the pain he received.

"No. It's early autumn."

In the log cabin built by him, Ming Ye helped Bai Feng Xian recover his body. A cup of magic wine of his concoction flickered in relieving Bai Feng Xian's throat, and in an instant his body began to recover.

The injuries incurred from the God Killing Well were still not dry, but the pain had already begun to diminish.

Ming Ye looked at him calmly. As a god of the old generation who had been aloof for thousands of years, she could clearly realize that this daughter of her best friend had gone through the test of the heavens and her level had already risen to become a Great Goddess.

“I don't know what happened to you. You suddenly came home as a Great Goddess and were covered in wounds.”

The corner of Bai Feng Xian's eyes twitched.

“Great Goddess?” weak tanyanya. Ming Ye nodded.

Bai Feng Xian sensed that the spiritual flow within his body was stronger than before. His primordial soul became more stable and the magic revolving within him was much more powerful.

This signifies that his immortal body has reached a high level in the divine hierarchy of the Four Seas and the Three Lands.

It turned out, the voice buzzing in his ears was a voice from the sky. Bai Feng Xian had gone through the sky test of love and the test of life, which made her level up to become a Great Goddess.

Apparently, his lost memories and his life in Heaven were a test for him. Dongfang Yue was his greatest test, one that gave an incomparable pain and unwillingness in the Four Seas and Five Lands.

The sky test that came to him was completely unexpected. He could not even remember when the test began. Bai Feng Xian was more ignorant of fate, which made a Celestial Emperor his test of the heavens.

It seemed, Bai Feng Xian would have to wander back to look for the remaining memories left behind before he became a disciple of Dongfang Yue which ended miserably. At least, after all his injuries had recovered.

“You are the only goddess in your generation to rise faster,” said Ming Ye. “Then, what will you do with the baby in your stomach?”

Despite not checking her pulse, Ming Ye could tell if her best friend's daughter was pregnant. Just by looking at the spiritual current within the body and the center of the soul core, Ming Ye could tell apart a person who was two-bodied.

Bai Feng Xian was surprised, his eyes dropped and became blank.

Unknowingly, she held onto her stomach with her hands still dirty by the dried up bloodstains. Bai Feng Xian did not know if this was a blessing or a calamity for him. This boy..is the son of Dongfang Yue! Bai Feng Xian could not be wrong!

"Why should it be like this...." Bai Feng Xian said softly.

Her tears are dripping. Ming Ye was very worried about him. With his current condition, it would be very difficult to keep the fetus in his stomach stable and alive.

Bai Feng Xian was extremely depressed after returning from his wandering, and his most severe wound was in his heart. Ming Ye could read the puzzled look within Bai Feng Xian's expression.

“I have wine mixed with musk. If you want, you can drink it.”

Should Bai Feng Xian defend it? Or just eliminate it?

“Ming Ye, can you help me get this baby out?”

Ming Ye had not expected Bai Feng Xian to take this choice. Although he was still injured and his heart was extremely fragile, Bai Feng Xian chose to save the baby inside his stomach.

He himself did not know the accuracy of his decision. One thing was clear, Bai Feng Xian was eager to recover himself.

Thanks to Ming Ye's help, the baby inside Bai Feng Xian's stomach managed to come out safely. The red baby did not cry, his eyes narrowed like Dongfang Yue's eyes.

Even after many days had passed, Bai Feng Xian always had nightmares and woke up every night. The wounds on his body that were starting to recover sometimes still gave him pain.

Every time Bai Feng Xian woke up, the little baby beside him would chatter as if he knew of his mother's suffering.

Ming Ye could not bear it. How could a girl who used to be so cheerful end up pitiful like this.

Originally Ming Ye thought Bai Feng Xian could recover immediately and forget all his pain. Seeing him awake at night and pensive like a dazed person, Ming Ye's heart was completely heartless.

Until one night, he called Ji Meng, the Undercurrent Guard God to the Mirror Lake and asked him to help. Bai Feng Xian happened to be awake.

The arrival of Ji Meng instantly made the pressure within her mind again churn. Every time he saw people, he seemed to see himself at the edge of the God Killing Well.

"Why did he end up so pathetic?" ji Meng asked, who was very surprised to see Bai Feng Xian's condition.

"Eitherway. I think he should recover immediately before returning to Qingqiu."

Ji Meng looked at him with a look of pity. This cheerful girl who used to bother him for a long time did not hear news, but when she saw him again, his condition was so sad. How could he end up like this?

“Ming Ye, let me forget those painful memories,” Bai Feng Xian said.

In the end, he could only choose this path if he wanted to completely recover.

How sad this goddess is. Bai Feng Xian became a Great Goddess, but had to suffer so much because it was hard to forget the memory of her trials.

Ming Ye had never intended to ask who that person was, who became the biggest burden of pain and the father of this baby. He thought it would only hurt him more.

Bai Feng Xian stared blankly at the bundle of cloth wrapping around the baby. This baby was a baby god, not an ordinary human baby.

Bai Feng Xian was still depressed, as the sky test he had just passed turned out to shake his entire soul. Recalling Dongfang Yue's cold face as he stood on the edge of the God Killing Well, his heart was like being torn apart by a sharp sword.

“Are you sure?” ask Ming Ye.

“If you do, all the memories you want to forget will be erased and non-refundable,” Ji Meng connected to Ming Ye's question.

For a moment, Bai Feng Xian was worried. It takes time to think. His head looked up, staring briefly at the tiny baby sleeping beside him.

The lives of the gods were difficult, not easy to survive under pressure. It was better if he forgot about it, and forgot about anything he wanted to forget.

“I'm sure.”

Ming Ye and Ji Meng did not ask any more. A cup of Meng Po wine mixed with the water of Mirror Lake and the extraction of peach blossoms thousands of years ago, soaked Bai Feng Xian's throat.

The woman fell asleep after a while. Ming Ye held the tiny baby, then handed it to Ji Meng.

“When he wakes up, he will not remember his painful memories and everything will only feel like a dream,” Ming Ye said.

Ji Meng held the tiny baby carefully. She admired the calmness of this tiny baby who still did not cry despite being in the arms of a stranger.

He thought, this baby is not a descendant of ordinary gods. His father must be someone with immense strength. Before dawn, he had brought the little baby to his palace under the water.

The next day, Bai Feng Xian woke up with the same pain. Surprisingly, he did not remember where all the pain came from.

His memory stopped as he was walking on the border of the Three Lands, then a strong wind and sky lightning struck, blurring his gaze and leading him towards a very cold river. After that, he doesn't remember anymore.

“You're aware?” Ming Ye entered carrying a cup of medicinal decoction.

“What happened?”

Ming Ye changed his expression and acted as usual, his tone as calm as ever.

While thrusting the medicine cup, he replied, “You just passed the sky test and leveled up. Now, you are the Great Goddess Bai Feng Xian.”

“Great Goddess?”

“You fell asleep after passing the sky test. Because of that exam, the wounds on your body have been sleeping with you for three hundred years.”

Ming Ye could not possibly lie. Although Bai Feng Xian did not remember it, he was sure that Ming Ye's words were indeed true. He sipped the medicinal herb up the toilet.

The sun was still hiding, and the Mirror Lake was always calm as usual. Ah, Bai Feng Xian was suddenly at a loss as to how long he had not felt the morning scent of Ming Ye's Mirror Lake.

“I was like dreaming very long,” he said.

Ming Ye smiled brightly.

“Go home. Your father and mother must be worried about you.”
