"Here."
Wang Xian turned around and tossed his jacket to Cheng Yao without looking, his voice calm as usual.
She was squatting on the ground, arms wrapped protectively around her chest, cheeks burning red from embarrassment. The transformation had come with… side effects.
Side effects like jumping from A to C—or maybe even D.
Like aging five or six years in a matter of minutes.
Gone was the petite, overly made-up girl with teenage sharpness in her voice. Now, she was a tall, stunning woman—easily 1.75 meters—with grace in her posture and radiance in her gaze.
This wasn't just a class change.
It was evolution.
"I'm… I'm dressed!" she called shyly a minute later.
Wang Xian turned around expressionless, acting like nothing had happened. "Alright. So—what did that flower do to you?"
Cheng Yao blinked, caught off guard by the question. She had expected teasing, not a serious inquiry.
But that shift in focus helped. Her expression brightened. "Uncle! I got a hidden class! The Flower God! Isn't that awesome?"
"Hidden class?" Wang Xian played along. "That flower did all that?"
"Mhm! I didn't even think it was possible! But after I ate it, I changed!"
"Then open your status window. I wanna see the details."
She hesitated for a split-second, then nodded. "Okay!"
What appeared next made Wang Xian's heart skip a beat.

Wang Xian's eyes narrowed.
The bonuses were off the charts. Cheng Yao's MP value at level 10 was higher than his own, and he was a sacrifice—already one of the strongest caster classes with a 500% bonus. But Cheng Yao matched that.
Matched it.
Her HP bonus was sitting at 400%—a theoretical max, based on the best data statisticians in his past life had ever seen.
And this was just the beginning.
The raw stats already suggested she was built like a tank in a sundress. But the skills—Wang Xian turned his attention there and braced himself.
[Graft]Convert HP to MP and vice versa freely. No cooldown.When taking damage, consumes MP before HP.
His jaw clenched.So that's how she survived the eight fatal blows in his last life. That skill alone could make a raid boss weep.
[Mizuki Tsinghua]Single-target heal.Amount healed scales with Magic ATK.Heal amount increases up to 100% based on how low the target's HP is.Cast Time: Instant | MP Cost: 100 | Cooldown: 1s
[Spring Blossoms]AoE heal, same scaling and bonus.Cast Time: 3s | MP Cost: 300 | Cooldown: 10s
[Hundred Flowers Striving for Beauty]Buffs multiple allies.+10% to all attributes.Duration: 10 minutes | Cooldown: 60s
Solid. Impressive. But then—
[Liuying Huaming](Heaven-Shattering)Mark a target. If the target dies, the mark activates.Instant resurrection. Does not consume death count.Duration: 1 hour | Cooldown: 60s
Wang Xian froze.
Time stopped.
This—this was the skill. This was what made the entire world want her dead in his previous life. Not just because of how powerful it was… but because of what it represented.
A literal override of the death system.
And she could cast it on others.
That was when nations decided she was a threat to existence itself.
[Flower God's Blessing]Grants access to all Priest-class skills.Each level-up grants an extra +5 Spirit.
Wang Xian exhaled slowly.
"Monster…" he muttered under his breath.
Even with all his power, talent, and rebirth advantage, this girl—with the right support and leveling—would become untouchable.
He looked at her, still proudly wearing his jacket and grinning like a kid who just found her favorite toy.
She was powerful.
And completely unaware of just how much of a target she'd just become.
"Uncle?" Cheng Yao blinked. "Are you… okay? You're just staring."
"…Yeah. Just impressed." Wang Xian forced a smile. "You hit the jackpot, Yaoyao."
She lit up like fireworks. "Heehee! I know, right? I feel like I could take on the world! You don't think it's too much?"
"No. But it's going to change everything for you."
She tilted her head. "How so?"
"...We'll talk about it later," Wang Xian said gently. "For now, just don't show anyone your status unless I say it's safe."
That smile of hers wavered slightly, but she nodded. "Okay, Uncle."
Wang Xian turned away, his mind already working furiously.
This changes everything.She needs protection.She needs growth.And above all… she needs to stay alive.
Because Cheng Yao—Yaoyao—isn't just a Flower God anymore.
She's the keystone of the future.
