Chapter 632: The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor
Chapter 632: Growing Vegetables and Cultivating Helpers (2)
Although the snowball possessed human-like intelligence, it couldn’t fully grasp the complexity of human emotions. Seeing Mo Yan so distressed, it spun around anxiously and awkwardly offered comfort. “Yan Yan, don’t be sad. If you miss your family from the modern timeline, once I regain my true form, I will definitely take you back to visit them.”
Mo Yan was taken aback and immediately forgot her sorrow. She clutched the snowball with hopeful eyes and asked, “You can really take me back to the modern world? You really can?”
The snowball’s eyes widened as it proudly said, “Of course! Otherwise, do you think you could have traveled through the turbulent flow of time and space and returned to this body with just your soul fragments? If it weren’t for saving you, I wouldn’t have…”
At this point, the snowball abruptly changed the topic. “Anyway, once I regain my true form, I will be able to safely guide you through the turbulent flow of time and space back to the modern world. So don’t worry!”
Mo Yan hesitated, her joy at the prospect of visiting her grandparents, parents, and siblings from the modern world tempered by a nagging suspicion. The sudden change of topic made her feel that things might not be as simple as the snowball was suggesting.
Curious, she tried to press the snowball for the part it had withheld, but the snowball stubbornly refused to reveal it.
The more the snowball withheld, the more suspicious Mo Yan became. She tried asking other questions to get it to talk.
As a spirit, the snowball wasn’t very clever with deception. Driven by its natural trust and attachment to its master, it soon spilled all the previously hidden details.
In the previous life, when Mo Yan was blown to pieces and her soul was on the brink of dispersing, the snowball had just finished upgrading the space. Realizing Mo Yan was in danger, the snowball used a secret technique to break through the constraints of the merit bead, despite having less than 30% of its spiritual power left. It carried one soul fragment of Mo Yan through the turbulent flow of time and space to this timeline and ultimately sent her soul into her current body.
The snowball was severely depleted and had to return to the space to recuperate. However, this timeline also didn’t allow for the existence of spirits, so it was re-sealed into the merit bead by the rules of heaven and earth.
With the spirit sealed, the space reverted to its “original form.” All of Mo Yan’s previous accumulations over more than ten years vanished, so when she awoke and entered the space, she found it had returned to its most primitive state.
Mo Yan was unaware of the tremendous sacrifice the snowball made to save her. Looking at the snowball’s palm with an expectant expression, she felt both touched and guilty. “Snowball, thank you. Without you, there wouldn’t be the me now. And you wouldn’t have been sealed and only just come out!”
The snowball wanted praise but felt embarrassed by Mo Yan’s sincere thanks. It wiggled uncomfortably and said, “You’re my master. It’s only natural for me to save you. You don’t need to feel guilty or thank me! Besides, even if I hadn’t saved you, I’d have had to find another master. I’d still be sealed and wouldn’t come out until the space reached the sixth level again. If the new master wasn’t reliable, I might never have had a chance to come out, even if sealed for a thousand or ten thousand years.”
It had encountered unreliable masters before and couldn’t remember how many years it had been sealed before meeting Mo Yan. Finding Mo Yan, who possessed nine lifetimes of merit, was a rare opportunity, and it wasn’t going to give up easily due to minor setbacks!
Mo Yan was unaware of the snowball’s thoughts. She hugged it tightly, her lowered eyelids hiding the tears in her eyes.
Indeed, she was the snowball’s master, but if she had died, the snowball could have easily sought out another descendant of the Mo family. Instead, it had risked everything (even though it couldn’t truly die) to preserve her soul and carry it through the turbulent flow of time and space back to her original body.
