The infant corpse in the coffin suddenly opened its eyes. It crawled towards Shen Yan's severed limb, sucking with a sticky sound. With each sip, a piece of Shen Yan's skin peeled away, revealing the writhing Bronze Talisman beneath.
"The life-exchange technique faltered at the last step." The Second Mistress plunged her Silver Scissors into her own abdomen, pulling out a purplish Umbilical Cord. "It requires the blood and milk of close kin to merge."
I suddenly vomited out a string of prayer beads. The sandalwood beads swelled upon contact with blood, transforming into ninety-nine curled-up fetuses. They crawled up my legs towards my heart, gathering in a lotus shape at the location of my Vermilion Birthmark.
Father's corpse suddenly convulsed and stood up. From his rotting skin emerged Bronze Lock Pieces, which had once been embedded in Shen Yan's severed limb, burrowing into my womb like leeches.
"Father used my mother's blood to extend his life." Shen Yan revealed the Change of Fate Incantation etched on his exposed leg bones. "Now it is time to use your reincarnated body to reconstruct the formation."
The Bronze Coffin began to tremble. The Madam's corpse turned its hollow eye sockets towards my Vermilion Birthmark. When her finger bones pierced through, I heard a sound from the same spot.
The Second Mistress suddenly cut open her wrist, pouring blood over Shen Yan's leg bones. "Yan'er, it's time to feed the child, blood column Twin Lotus totem. Those that fall to the ground as fetuses will crawl over my exposed skin and suckle. With each sip, a piece of my memory shatters."
The Watchman rang the funeral bell in the ancestral hall as Cheng Chen’s wheelchair floated in mid-air. His severed limbs sprouted Azure Bronze Branches, stitching the Second Mistress's Umbilical Cord into my womb.
"This is the incantation for the amniotic sac over my abdomen; those indigo threads are dyed with blood," she said. "Use your reincarnation’s Nine Reincarnations resentment to raise that child who was suffocated to death back then."
The Second Mistress's prayer beads suddenly tightened around my neck. She tore off her human skin mask, revealing Qin Wanyun's decayed face. "Good daughter-in-law, it’s time to return Yan'er to her mother."
Cheng Chen suddenly collapsed. As I fell into the Dye Vat, I saw Shen Yan cradling the Bronze Infant Corpse while nursing—at the center of that child's chest lay the Silver Scissors, the very weapon I had plunged into my own throat in a past life.
Indigo Liquid poured into my nostrils as I emerged from the cocoon. It turned out that in every lifetime, I was sacrificed in the Bronze Coffin by being pierced by the same severed limbs...
Shen Yan's Bronze Prosthetic got stuck in my birth canal when suddenly, from the bottom of the Dye Vat, a tenth coffin floated up. This Gilded Porcelain Coffin was translucent like virgin skin, and curled inside was a Liuli Skeleton—the body that had perished during a difficult birth—holding a Celadon Infant Corpse in its arms.
"At last, I've been waiting for you." The Second Mistress tore open her chest, revealing the writhing mass inside. "The life-exchanging technique from years ago did not require Yan'er; it was the umbilical cord that clutched the corpse within your belly. I discovered that the dried blood vessel perfectly matched the patterns of Qingtong in Shen Yan's severed limb. As the indigo sheep vat suddenly boiled, the physical forms of ninety-nine fetuses began to gnaw at Shen Yan's back, invoking the Change of Fate Incantation.
"My mother was wrong." The limb revealed the stark leg bone inscribed with Sheng Chen—marking the day I was sold into the Shen Mansion. "What I wanted was never to prolong my life."
As the Watchman struck the Midnight gong, my Placenta emerged. In the smoke, a figure appeared, holding a half piece of the Twin Fish Jade Pendant—identical to the token used by the Second Mistress when she swapped the babies years ago.
"Do you really think he is my father?" Shen Yan's severed limb suddenly pierced the Second Mistress's abdomen, tearing out a Qingtong Umbilical Cord. "Twenty-Five Years Ago, it was not just the Heir of the Shen Family that was swapped; it was also the Nurse's Son."
