Dusk, Phoenix Mountain.

At the foot of the mountain, a beautiful and extraordinary woman stood gracefully, slightly raised her head, and stared at the mountain in front of her. There were complex and tangled emotions in her eyes, and no one could understand what they meant.

"It's here, Phoenix Mountain." The woman murmured softly, and clenched her hands secretly at her sides. Her usually calm mood suddenly became tense and expectant.

The mountain wind whistled, and a slight chill came towards me, but the woman in front of me was oblivious, letting her hair fly and her clothes rise and fall. Her beautiful eyes just stared blankly ahead, and no one knew what she was thinking. After a long time, the woman slowly took a step and walked up the mountain step by step from the foot of the mountain.

Guanghan Palace, Phoenix Mountain, heaven and earth, if you are really willing to let go and look at it in a positive way, why are you so persistent

A faint sigh was let out, brows were slightly furrowed, and pity and heartache passed through my heart - you are obviously a very intelligent woman, but you did such an impulsive thing. Your shoulders are obviously weak and need others to pity you, but when you are serious and persistent, you are so determined. It turns out that I still don't know you well enough.

The road was stepped on, the grass and trees made a rustling sound, and my thoughts gradually drifted farther and farther, but they were all around that person. All the little things in the past were now vivid in my mind. Haha~~ It turned out that no matter how much I deceived myself, I could never really forget the past.

"Cough cough..." The woman paused slightly, stroked her chest with her hand, coughed for a while, and then continued walking forward - I have missed it once... I will not miss it again this time, and I will not escape again. If you can do it without hesitation, what reason do I have to hurt your heart again

-So please give me another chance, this time I will love you...

"Mei Niang, slow down, wait for me."

On the winding mountain road, two women were walking quickly, one in front and one behind. They must have walked a long way. The woman in green clothes who was walking behind was obviously lagging behind and was left far behind by the woman in pink clothes.

"I'm so tired. Why are you walking so fast? You're not in a hurry to reincarnate!" The woman in green was so tired that she couldn't help but stop to rest for a while and wipe the sweat from her forehead.

The pink-dressed woman walking in front turned around and urged the green-dressed woman, "Caiyin, you'd better hurry up for our dinner. You know, if we're late, the old ginseng spirit will leave. I'm telling you, I don't want to eat vegetarian food tonight. If you delay and I can't get the fish caught by the old ginseng spirit, I won't forgive you."

Caiyin had no choice but to quicken her pace, but thinking of the recent incidents involving goblins in Phoenix Mountain, she couldn't help but feel a little uneasy: "Mei Niang, Phoenix Mountain has been uneasy these days, we should go out less."

The woman named Mei Niang said nonchalantly: "Cai Yin, some dangers cannot be avoided just because you want to. Good fortune is not a disaster, and disaster is inevitable. Worrying too much will only make you more tired, so don't worry so much, and leave quickly."

"But Mei Niang..."

Caiyin wanted to say something, but Mei Niang in front of her obviously didn't want to listen to her chatter. She had already run away in the direction of Xijing Lake in Fenghuang Mountain. Caiyin had no choice but to chase after her.

The water of Mirror Lake is clear and the surface is calm even on windy days, hence the name Mirror Lake.

Hu Meiniang and Caiyin are two rabbit spirits in Phoenix Mountain. They usually have close contact with an old ginseng spirit in Phoenix Mountain. The old ginseng spirit likes to go fishing at Mirror Lake every evening. Today, Hu Meiniang suddenly had a whim and said she wanted to drink fish soup, so she dragged Caiyin out of the cave and rushed to Mirror Lake to ask the old ginseng spirit for a few carps to make soup. They rushed to the Mirror Lake with ease, but they did not see the old ginseng spirit in the distance. Instead, a woman in white was standing quietly by the Mirror Lake, staring at the lake in front of her, wondering what she was thinking.

"Huh? Who is that?" Caiyin saw Hu Meiniang suddenly stop and look at the place not far ahead with a suspicious look. She felt strange and curiously followed Hu Meiniang's gaze. She saw a woman in white standing by the shore of Jinghu Lake with her back to them.

The woman by the lake seemed to have heard footsteps and her figure shook slightly, but she did not turn back.

Hu Meiniang noticed that the woman in white suddenly clenched her hands hanging by her side, but they were still trembling slightly, as if the woman was trying hard to suppress some emotion.

"Miss, are you waiting for someone? Are you waiting for the old ginseng spirit?" Not many people would come to Mirror Lake, so Hu Meiniang naturally thought that the woman in white was looking for the old ginseng spirit. But the other party did not respond to Hu Meiniang's words, but remained silent for a long time.

Hu Meiniang secretly stuck out her tongue. She was not annoyed by the other party's indifference, but she didn't know what to say for a moment.

On the side, Caiyin secretly pulled Hu Meiniang's sleeve and whispered, "Meiniang, this person is not from our Phoenix Mountain. Since the old ginseng spirit is not here, let's go back quickly." She secretly glanced at the woman in white not far away, and she always felt a little uneasy. This Phoenix Mountain is rarely visited by mortals, and ordinary goblins and ghosts dare not act rashly and come and go freely in Phoenix Mountain without the approval of the mountain king Jin Ba. The woman in white in front of her is obviously not a mortal. She has no demonic aura. She is neither a human nor a demon. She can only be a Taoist or an immortal from the upper world. No matter which one she belongs to, she and Mei Niang, who are shallow goblins, cannot afford to provoke her. Instinctively, Caiyin pulled Hu Meiniang beside her and wanted to leave.

Hu Meiniang stood there, not showing any intention of leaving. She ignored Caiyin's urging and said, "Wait a moment." Hu Meiniang kept her eyes on the woman in white, looking her up and down. It was a strange feeling. Even though she didn't see her face, she felt a kind of intimacy with her and couldn't help wanting to get closer to her and understand her.

"My name is Hu Meiniang." She originally wanted to find out the other person's name, but when she spoke, she told her own name. Hu Meiniang suddenly found herself inexplicably nervous, and a deep sense of confusion surged in her heart. While she was in a daze, she heard the faint sigh of the woman in white.

"Mei Niang... Oh, how could I not know your name?"
