Chapter 2, The Time-Traveling Girl
Blue Shadow, over a hundred years ago, a live experiment transformed her and her close friend into beings that are neither god nor human, but rather monsters... Immortal and endowed with extraordinary abilities
The spring breeze caresses the delicate willow branches, causing the fine willow catkins to dance in the air alongside the pale pink cherry blossoms, creating a dreamlike palette against the blue sky
Suddenly, the ears of the blue shadow twitched slightly; there were footsteps, unsteady in pace, the sounds of two feet striking the ground varied, accompanied by a scent of blood, indicating a serious injury. It seemed that the distance to her was approximately that of a long-distance runner sprinting at full speed for fifteen minutes.
The grass is adorned with strands of green silk that shimmer with a subtle glow, resembling the finest silk from silkworms. On the small, exquisitely perfect face shaped like a goose egg, the lips, more beautiful and alluring than cherry blossom petals, glisten with an enticing sheen. The petite, pink-tinged nose, beneath gently fluttering eyelids, is framed by two rows of dense eyelashes resembling small brushes, creating a visage without a single flaw. It is as delicate as the most precious figurine displayed in a showcase, evoking thoughts of the astonishing scene that would unfold when those closed eyelids are lifted.

Upon seeing that white figure, with light gauze cascading to the ground, dancing gently in the wind, and hair as silky as threads reaching down to her calves, a face exquisitely perfect appearing in the woods, it resembled a fairy, instantly evoking a sense of inferiority in the young girl.
Yet that figure seemed unable to pay attention to the injuries on her body, as if some monstrous flood were chasing her from behind, her delicate and pale face displaying a stubborn determination as she ran
Suddenly, as if sensing something, the young girl abruptly stopped in her tracks, a sharp glint flashing briefly in her eyes, "Who?"
The abilities of the Blue Shadow are as follows: 1. Mastery over all beasts; 2. Alteration and control of cells (replicating the DNA of others for personal use, changing oneself from the inside out, or disassembling and recombining one's DNA strands to alter one's appearance, physical attributes, etc.)
Is she sleeping? No, in fact, she is just staring blankly with her eyes closed
A glimmer of interest flashed in her eyes, and Lan Ying's smile became increasingly gentle and graceful, "Inside, I am called Lan Ying..."
Thus, Lan Ying gave her a good scolding, and as they were returning to the Xuantian Continent, her usually obedient and well-behaved best friend unexpectedly said with a sly smile: "Well, Lan Ying, I suddenly realized that always being scolded by you without resisting is really not in line with my style..."
The first thing an ordinary person does upon crossing over is to check whether they have physically or spiritually traversed. Then, they ponder how they made the transition—whether it was due to being hit by a car or through some dramatic encounter with a deity of crossing over. Following that, they will also contemplate their current identity, how to manage their daily meals, and so forth.
Thus, collectively referred to as ... . ... Due to the prolonged suppression of the close allies, a rebellion has erupted, resulting in a crossing over.
Her pale, jade-like arms gently supported her as she stood up, the dark hair cascading down to her calves, smoothly draping over her immaculate white gauze dress. A soft light enveloped her, as if refracting a faint, gentle halo.
Why is Lanying so calm? Let's rewind to fifteen minutes ago, when her best friend, who has the ability to tear through space and travels across various worlds, suddenly returned to interrupt her game. With a serious expression, she told Lanying that she had fallen in love with a stoic man who shows signs of developing a poker face.
Yet who knows that her current pair of black eyes is merely a reflection of contact lenses? The true eyes beneath those lenses are the real treasures that the entire world would vie for; they are a pair of eyes that, at first glance, evoke a frenzied desire to possess and cherish them.
The blue shadow, who had just walked not far behind the girl, was momentarily taken aback, with her brows slightly raised. She did not expect that this girl could actually detect her presence even while running in such a disheveled manner
Huff, huff, huff... The heavy panting echoed through the moderately sized forest. A frail black figure stumbled and ran, the black clothing marked with distinct holes, clearly made by a whip, revealing faint traces of gruesome bloodstains corresponding to each wound.
"Who are you?" Although the young girl felt somewhat embarrassed, her family's years of training kept her alert to the sudden appearance of this woman. At the same time, she was puzzled; who could this strikingly attractive person be, with a face even more beautiful than Duanmu Jiaya's and a demeanor more graceful than that of Duanmu Jiaya?
The thin eyelids gently lifted, revealing a pair of dark, glistening eyes that could easily ensnare anyone who gazed upon them. They were eyes so tender that one could feel as if being looked at by her granted them the entire world. Such warmth would draw all dark creatures towards her, while also making beings of light deeply enamored with her.
Walking at a leisurely pace, with a faint yet stunning smile gracing her lips, her silky hair gently sways as she moves, creating ripples of shimmering light, captivating and beautiful
On a vast expanse of grassland covered with foxtail grass, a white figure appears intermittently among the grass
And the first thing that Lan Ying did upon arriving was to look at the sky, which was very blue, with not a cloud in sight, seemingly indicating that it would not rain; then she looked at the ground, which was covered in grass, still quite clean, and the insects were well-behaved, not crawling onto her; finally, she looked around, finding no one, ensuring that she would not be disturbed, and then lay down to sleep
This took less than three seconds
The following is a fifteen-minute process through a time-space tunnel
The sky is as blue as a water-washed sapphire tabletop, shimmering with a gentle luster, clear and bright.
This is the reason for the Blue Shadow's crossing.
A distance of several kilometers, yet it took her less than five minutes with her leisurely pace, even more impressive than a long-distance runner
Lan Ying observed her posture, raising her eyebrows even higher. Although it was not particularly standard, it was undeniably the basic stance that a professional assassin would adopt when on alert. However, it was evident that this young girl had not yet been fully trained.
As for what kind of world one inhabits, whether it is a fantasy continent, a demon continent, or an ancient otherworldly continent, how could it possibly be more important than sleeping
