Before the original body died, their only belief was to save their son.
As for revenge, it was secondary.
"Not good, that beast has been gone for a while.
His so-called replacement probably isn't a living exchange. Replacing with burnt remains would be the safest."
As soon as she sorted through the original body's memories, Ding Yun couldn't help but feel that something was wrong. Given her husband's sudden ruthless personality, he wouldn't choose to have the two children exchanged alive and then surrender, wait for the court to verify their identities, hand them over to the authorities, and publicly behead them.
That would take too long and be too risky.
Instead, after the replacement, he would directly burn his own son to death, leaving no witnesses. This would also allow him to pose as a loyal and devoted guardian, taking the heir's son away alive and then raising him.
However, this world was a high-level martial arts world.
Noble families practiced martial arts, and even across the entire continent, there were not a few Martial Saints. The powerful could cleave mountains and divert rivers, fighting against ten thousand soldiers alone. The original body's husband was a martial artist in the Xiantian realm; otherwise, he wouldn't have been qualified to be the personal guard of the Zhenbei Marquis' heir.
Considering the Zhenbei Marquis' heir, who was in the Zongshi realm,
Ding Yun would need at least a peak Zongshi realm, preferably a Grandmaster realm, to snatch her son back alive as safely and quickly as possible.
And now time was extremely pressing.
It was impossible to cultivate herself temporarily; even with many elixirs and medicines in her soul space, it wouldn't be enough. So, she could only place her hope in the reality editor again. She began to extract various useless materials from her soul space to convert them into editing points, while simultaneously editing her own cultivation.
She modified her cultivation from an amateur martial artist to the peak of the Grandmaster realm.
In addition, Ding Yun recalled several martial arts secret manuals from her memory, studied them briefly, and then used the reality editor to edit these newly learned martial arts to the perfect level.
This was to avoid having strength but no skills.
As the editing was completed, the thin internal energy within Ding Yun rapidly grew under the nourishment of a strange energy. It circulated madly within her body, multiplying several times with each cycle, while also continuously opening up meridians and acupoints. In a short while, the Eight Extraordinary Meridians were unblocked, the Heaven and Earth Bridges were opened, and she smoothly advanced to the Xiantian realm.
Then, the internal energy transformed into a more condensed true essence, turning into a mercury-like liquid that continued to circulate and grow within her body, eventually converging into an ocean of true essence in her dantian.
Following this, the spiritual consciousness manifested into martial intent.
Her cultivation directly reached the Grandmaster realm, just a step away from condensing true essence into a pill and advancing to Martial Saint.
At the same time, the various martial arts secret manuals that had been edited to the perfect level also began to take effect within Ding Yun's body, enhancing her physique, the condensation and purity of her internal energy, her attack power, and so on.
Various sword techniques, palm techniques, Qinggong, and other skills were also quickly mastered by Ding Yun.
In short, in just this short period, she had become a peak Grandmaster realm expert, proficient in all forms of weaponry, palm techniques, sword techniques, and Qinggong.
After that, of course, she immediately flew out of the sea of fire and, following the original body's memory, quickly headed towards the inner and back courtyards of the Zhenbei Marquis' mansion, which were still engaged in battle and where fires had been set in many places.
The Zhenbei Marquis' mansion was enormous, covering an area of over a thousand mu. The outer areas were mainly for the guards and servants, where the original body's family resided. The master of the Zhenbei Marquis' mansion, the heir, lived in the central area.
Although the original body wasn't entirely clear about their specific living quarters, she knew the general direction. Coupled with Ding Yun's direct use of spiritual power to search, she soon found her child-eating husband.
He was holding his son and speaking anxiously.
The man and woman in front of him, though disheveled, still exuded an air of nobility, likely the Zhenbei Marquis' heir and his wife. The wife clearly looked anxious and was watching the heir with concern, but the heir was currently somewhat hesitant.
Ge Jun noticed the Zhenbei Marquis' heir's hesitation.
He immediately gritted his teeth, hardened his heart, and reached out to strike the child in his arms. Clearly, he intended to kill his own son. That way, with the child dead, it would be better to make good use of the situation and save the heir's son.
He thought that the heir would no longer hesitate.
Seeing this, Ding Yun naturally could not tolerate it. She immediately used both hands to perform different martial arts simultaneously.
With her left hand, she used remote acupuncture to immobilize Ge Jun.
With her right hand, she used Dragon Claw technique to snatch her son back.
After doing all this, she landed lightly in front of them, holding her son. The Zhenbei Marquis' heir and his wife stared at her in horror. The Zhenbei Marquis' heir had already mobilized the true essence within his body, on guard and ready to strike at any moment.
"Don't be afraid, I don't intend to kill you.
This beast is my husband, and the child he wanted to kill was born from me after ten months of pregnancy. I originally wanted to live a normal life as an ordinary person.
But someone had to test my limits."
At this point, Ding Yun turned to look at Ge Jun, who, although his acupoints were sealed, could still see and hear:
"Your loyalty is your loyalty, but do not use my son's life to exchange for your loyalty. You are not worthy. However, in consideration of your loyalty, I am not a harsh person. So, you can fulfill this loyalty yourself!"
After speaking, Ding Yun, under the bewildered gazes of everyone else, including Ge Jun's terrified and confused look, appeared to reach out and touch Ge Jun. In reality, she activated the reality editor and edited Ge Jun's body.
Thus, in the eyes of the others present,
A very strange scene unfolded.
Everyone could clearly see that under Ding Yun's touch, the immobilized Ge Jun's face and hair were constantly twisting and changing, transforming into the appearance of the Zhenbei Marquis' heir. Finally, even his height increased slightly. At first glance, apart from the different clothing, he looked like an identical twin to the Zhenbei Marquis' heir, without any difference.
This was not the end.
Next, even the true essence within his body began to transform towards the attribute of the Zhenbei Marquis' heir's true essence, and it directly broke through to the peak Zongshi realm.
What appeared extremely bizarre to outsiders was actually very simple to Ding Yun. It was nothing more than copying and pasting the Zhenbei Marquis' heir's attributes onto her husband. After the copying and pasting was complete, her husband's martial arts and true essence were exactly the same as the Zhenbei Marquis' heir's.
Even the calluses on his palms.
Were not the slightest bit different.
