— Previous Night —
Standing on top of the manor, Elysia watched as Xin Yan hugged Noah, or so she told herself. After all, there was no way Noah would hug Xin Yan before her.
*Crackkkkk!*
Cracks started to appear on the roof she was standing on, but when she heard and saw what happened next, all of her anger vanished in an instant.
***
"Who would have thought that I would fall in love with the person taking over my son's body, not that I regret falling for you. Noah, I want you to use my son's body tomorrow, and I also want you to create a new body for myself." Xin Yan patted Noah's cheek and spoke with conviction. There was a look of anger in her eyes, the anger was not directed at Noah but at herself.
'Hain!' Question marks appeared on Noah's face when hearing her words. 'How did she reach that conclusion from what I said.'
"~Chuckle~ Can you do that?" Seeing Noah's comical face, Xin Yan chuckled lightly and asked again.
"Can you tell why?" he asked, trying to understand what she wanted.
"I want to devote myself to you!" Seeing Noah trying to open his mouth, she placed her hand on his mouth to stop him from speaking. "Hear first, please! I love you the way I have never loved anyone, but there are many mistakes I have made in my life and Long Yang was one of those mistakes."
"I don't want to erase those mistakes because those mistakes are what made what I am today, but you see, every day I look at myself in the bath, It disgusts and suffocates to be in a body that was touched by that man." Xin Yan's eyes looked so disgusted with herself as she looked down at her own hands. "I feel like killing myself just thinking about how much of an idiot I was!"
The more she spoke, the higher her voice got. Noah wanted to say sothing, but the intensity of her emotions was so overwhelming that he knew no matter what he said nothing would change her mind but herself, and she also seed to have made her decision.
*splurt*
"Stop!" In her rage, Xin Yan even dug her nails into her arms, causing Noah to move and hold her down. "Are you an idiot?!" he scread in irritation, but the look on Xin Yan's face remained the sa.
"Very well! I will do it, so don't you dare ever harm yourself!" Noah spoke up in an authoritative tone, looking down into her eyes with a serious and overwhelming gaze. Seeing those eyes caused Xin Yan to shiver on the ground, and she hurriedly nodded her head in agreent."

"Sigh~ who made such a softy, I guess I will let this bitch off with a favor." Far away from the scene, Elysia muttered under her breath before she turned around to leave. Unknown to her, there was a smile on her face, a genuine warm smile.
— Back to a couple of monts before the lightning struck —
Wuhan looked at Elysia from the side and could not bring himself to speak in front of her. He could not help but sense a feeling of connection between them.
"What!" feeling Wuhan's almost staring gaze, Elysia inquired with a raised eyebrow.
"Ummm….. C.. Can you tell who you are?" after mustering up the courage, Wuhan decided to ask the question that he wanted to ask ever since he saw her. There was a sharp blush on his face; he did not understand why he was acting like he was standing in front of his crush, even though he knew he did not have any feelings for the woman.
Elysia frowned a little, seeing Wuhan's reaction before she rembered that since she was controlling the tribulation clouds, the aura of the world itself and the heavenly authority were excluding her.
Since Wuhan was soone born in this world, just like all the beings born on her, it was natural for him to have a sense of similarity with her presence. Realizing that she thought about how to introduce herself to the boy. Then suddenly, sothing clicked in her mind, and she started grinning like an idiot in her mind.
"I am Noah- Long Tian's lover!" She said.
"Noah?" Not aware of the na, Wuhan asked with a confused look on his face. Wuhan sighed in relief, realizing he did not feel bothered about the fact that she had a lover.
"Oh, you don't know. His real na is Noah, and there was no Long Tian to begin with…"
"For real?!" he asked with his mouth wide open. "That bastard even lied to about his na."
"Like you are any different." Elysia scoffed, making Wuhan even more embarrassed.
"Just who are you? Why did I not see you until now?" he asked.
Elysia thought for a while before answering, "If I don't want you to see , you won't. As for who I am, that is a secret."
Before Wuhan could ask anything further, sothing happened; the thunder rumbling in the sky started to move around.
*RUMBLE!*
Lightning struck down straight at Noah's soul, which was being hugged by Xin Yan in her embrace with a smile on her face.
*KA-BOOM!*
What followed next was a huge explosion that annihilated Xin Yan and Long Tian's body.
"What a lucky bitch…" Elysia muttered under her breath in jealousy as a small tear escaped her eyes. Wuhan's eyes widened as he looked at the scene with a look of disbelief.
"Did… did they just… die?" Wuhan looked at Elysia and the place of Long Tian's body with disbelief and shock. Everything happened in an instant he did not even have the ti to react to it properly.
"No, their bodies were obliterated, but their souls remain safe," Elysia replied before Wuhan's emotions overwheld him and interrupted the process. "They are making new bodies for themselves to inhabit them with their souls.

Wuhan's panic went down, and all that was left on his face was confusion.
"By any chance, do you an 'Clothes'?" He tried to make a joke to digest the information he had just heard but seeing the disgusted coled gaze from Elysia, he stopped talking and looked at the scene in front of him.
