I followed the God Master to the outer space of the target planet. "This is Kouetsu Planet, one of the soul elevation fields. This old lady now leaves this planet in your hands to clean up. I've locked it in a time field—however long you spend here, only an instant will pass outside. I look forward to your good news," said Ying Xian God Master before taking her leave."Alright, looks like I'll have to first investigate what exactly is wrong with this planet," I muttered to myself as I flew toward the surface.Kouetsu Planet, a mid-tier civilization planet similar to Earth—its scientific level even slightly higher. The development of technology had gradually corrupted its people. Brothels outnumbered schools; the entire planet was controlled by five dominant families. Though a global united government existed, it was powerless. The elite reveled in luxury while the masses suffered in misery. Technology served only the powerful. Religion had nearly vanished. Human hearts had fallen into depravity, awaiting only divine judgment.In a certain city, "Congratulations—you've finally paid off your father's debts. Don't look back after you leave. Start a new life~" Beside the back door of a brothel, an older woman in charge of chores wiped a tear from the corner of her eye as she spoke to the young woman before her. The girl had delicate makeup and wore clothes tinged with the dust of her trade. A gentle breeze lifted her long purple hair; passing men cast her lingering, suggestive smiles. Once the star attraction of this very brothel, her father's death had left behind crushing debt. Her mother had taken her younger sister and vanished, never to return. To clear her father's debts, she had fallen into this life. Three years had passed; this fragile body had stubbornly paid off every coin. Now, she was finally free—but she despised this body that countless hands had touched."Thank you, Aunt Fen, for taking care of me all these years. Don't work too hard from now on—take care of yourself and enjoy your later years," the girl said. She pulled a thick stack of bills from her bag and pressed it into the older woman's hands. "I won't need this money anymore. Please take it, Aunt Fen—it's repayment for all your kindness these past years~" When she first arrived at the brothel, other women had bullied her. It was this middle-aged woman, Aunt Fen, who had quietly protected her, giving a faint glimmer of light to her tragic life. After forcing the money into Aunt Fen's hands, the girl smiled and waved goodbye.Under the night sky, a light rain began to fall on the long bridge. The girl walked alone, damp hair clinging to her cheeks. Were the droplets sliding from her eyes rain or tears? She stood alone on the railing, with nothing left to hold onto. She had already resolved to die—ready to leap into the merciless river with this defiled body. Few cars passed on the bridge at this hour; a suicide here would go unnoticed. Though determined to end it, when the moment came to step forward, she hesitated—suicide required absolute resolve. After lingering on the railing in thought, she finally closed her eyes and jumped.
SPLASH!
With a massive splash, the girl vanished beneath the river's surface..."Are you okay?"
I pulled her out and flew to the riverbank. Ever since mastering the Universal Law of Tongues divine art, I could instantly understand any planetary language—extremely convenient. Seeing that she wouldn't wake no matter how I called, I attempted artificial respiration. Soon, accompanied by coughing, the girl finally breathed again. "You're lucky. I just arrived on this planet and happened to see you trying to kill yourself. Anyone else might not have been able to save you," I said with relief, sitting beside her and scolding lightly. Seeing her soaked, I activated a divine spell to instantly dry her body. "That should feel better now," I smiled."Why did you save me?! I don't want to live anymore—just let me die~" The girl struggled, trying to return to the bridge.
SLAP!
A crisp slap landed on her cheek. "You can die if you want, but give me a reason first. Otherwise, no matter how many times you jump, I'll pull you back," I reprimanded.
"Waaah~~~" The girl collapsed to her knees, sobbing.
"I'm White, from a faraway place. May I ask your name, miss?" I extended a hand to help her up.
"Can you just leave quietly? I'd be grateful," she said, wiping her tears.
"So you can try killing yourself again? Need another slap?" I snapped.
"Fine. Let me see why you want to die." I placed my hand on her forehead. Her entire life's memories instantly flooded into my mind. Removing my hand, I sighed. "So you've had such a sorrowful past. Meeting me today is your fortune—let me help you." With a casual wave, I used the Temporal Reversal Technique, restoring her body to its pure, untouched state before it was defiled. "Your body is now restored to sanctity. No need to call yourself dirty anymore," I said with a smile.The girl stared in astonishment at everything that had just happened. "Who… are you?"
"I told you—I'm from a faraway place. You wouldn't understand even if I explained. As payment for restoring your purity, can you tell me everything you know about this planet?" I replied mysteriously.
"My name is Kui Yi. I have no words to express my gratitude for the miracle you've shown me. But my father is gone, my mother abandoned me—I have nowhere to go, no reason to live..." Kui Yi hung her head in grief."That's easy. I came to this planet to purge its corruption. From now on, follow me and be my assistant. I won't mistreat you," I said with a smile, extending my hand. Kui Yi froze for a moment, then her expression gradually brightened with joy.
"Mm~ Please guide me, Mr. White."
As I held her slender hand, I looked up at the night sky. From this moment, the two of us set out together on the journey to reform the world.
