Chen Mengtian simply could not accept certain things in the original owner's memories.
The status of women in this era was simply too low.
Just when Chen Mengtian was wondering how she could go back to the twenty-first century, wind stirred in Green Lotus Dimension.
There was even sand in the wind.
Chen Mengtian covered her mouth and nose as she looked in the direction from which the strange wind came.
"Chen Mengtian, you belong to the Green Lotus Bloodline. You are the last remaining member of the bloodline among thousands of worlds. Chen Village's Chen Mengtian is you. She is you, and you are her."
Chen Mengtian heard the airy voice in the dimension, and fear flashed in her eyes. "Who are you?!"
'Damn it! Don't scare me like this!'
She had transmigrated into a horrible woman's body, and now, she had this strange dimension.
Chen Mengtian needed great courage to accept this, let alone a strange voice saying that she was Chen Village's Chen Mengtian.
This was just too shocking!
After she voiced her question, the wind stopped. The androgynous voice also vanished.
Chen Mengtian stayed rooted to the spot. She looked around warily.
Thud...
Suddenly, the door of the cottage near her opened.
Chen Mengtian trembled.
'Oh my God! There's a ghost!'
But even if Chen Mengtian's body gave off a natural fear response, she was someone with a curious heart, and she boldly took two steps forward.
"Who is it? Who spoke just now?"
She looked into the cottage.
Right when her voice faded away, something flew out of the cottage.
Chen Mengtian's heart thundered.
She stared at the item flying in her direction, and she could not help but take two steps back.
The item that flew out levitated in the air in front of Chen Mengtian.
It was a painting of a woman dressed in a green ruqun [1].
Cheng Mengtian could not see the person's features clearly. She could only tell that it was a woman with a decent demeanor.
"Chen Mengtian, since you have come, settle here. You will be in charge of passing down the Green Lotus Medical Technique. You are the last remaining member of the Green Lotus Bloodline in this world."
The voice from before spoke again.
This time, Chen Mengtian was certain that the voice came from the painting in front of her.
Perhaps it was because the voice repeatedly told her that she was the last remaining member of the Green Lotus Bloodline that the last traces of fear in Chen Mengtian's heart disappeared.
She took a bold step forward. "You mentioned that the Chen Mengtian in Chen Village is me. What do you mean?"
The painting levitating in the air trembled a few times.
"She is the incarnation of one of your many past lives. To make sure that your soul doesn't scatter, I brought you to the current era. She has always been you, but she never gained the intelligence of a member of the Green Lotus Bloodline."
Chen Mengtian was still slightly puzzled.
It was just too difficult for her to accept that she could be a woman who fought someone for a pretty boy and even lost her life because of it.
'Hmm? Where did that burning scent come from?'
Chen Mengtian scrunched her nose and sniffed the air for the burnt smell.
The next moment, she noticed that the levitating painting was on fire!
Upon seeing this, she became flustered and went forward to try and extinguish the flames. "Hey, you haven't told me how to go back! I don't want to stay here!"
However, when she came closer to the burning painting, the painting acted as if it had its own consciousness and swiftly drew back.
"Chen Mengtian, you are the last remaining member of the Green Lotus Bloodline. You must pass down the medical techniques of the Green Lotus Bloodline. If you want to go back, you must… pass it… down…"
When the voice faded away, the painting was burnt away by the flames. It did not leave behind even a single speck of ash.
Chen Mengtian's eyes went wide, and disbelief appeared on her face.
