Chapter 402 Traveling Through Time with Xuan Yue...
Xuan Yue looked at the signed contract in her hand with a long face, and complained resentfully, "Ugh~ I still feel like I've been completely fooled by you!"
Li Muyang said with a smile, "You're already on the pirate ship, are you trying to refuse? No way!"
Cang Yue, who was trying to play video games under the guidance of Xiao Ai and Xia He, covered her mouth and chuckled when she saw Xuan Yue's regretful and depressed look.
She knew her brother too well. He seemed to be a master strategist, but in reality, he was a lazy person. Unless he was pushed to the limit, he would never put his heart into anything. Without anyone giving him a push, Xuan Yue was just a lazy bum who just drifted along.
If it weren't for Morian's doomsday prophecy, Xuan Yue would have known that Mr. K had a problem, yet she still handled things for him dutifully. Did you really think it was all because of the Black Moon Iron Cavalry and the brain bomb? Of course not.
Xuan Yue had been asleep for ten thousand years, and when she woke up, she had no clear goal at all. The existence of Mr. K and the Black Moon Iron Cavalry gave Xuan Yue a goal to live for.
Originally, Xuan Yue just thought that since Mr. K wanted to use their strength to seize power, it wouldn't be unreasonable to help him for a while, considering that this guy helped them wake up from the ruins.
Xuan Yue also had an idea: if Heaven wants someone to perish, it must first make them go mad. Let Mr. K be arrogant for a while, and when he goes too far, then give him a good beating.
But to be honest, I'm still too lazy to do anything and just drift along.
It wasn't until Morian reminded him that Old K's true identity was Muir V, and his real purpose was to possess Xuan Yue's body and destroy the world that Xuan Yue was no longer willing to be a nobody.
If you continue to be a lazy bum, you'll just be at the mercy of others!
Originally, Muir V's abilities were far from enough to destroy the world, but he was favored by the heavens and had many opportunities! The more Xuan Yue predicted the future, the worse the situation became! No matter how they were dealt with, in the end, Muir V was able to escape from the brink of death and turn the tide!
This is what truly drove Xuan Yue mad! No matter how you predict the future, Muir V is unkillable! The cataclysmic crisis will occur, and anyone would go mad in that situation. Even with Xuan Yue's good temper, she would eventually explode.
Is this some kind of joke? Morian gave Xuan Yue the ability to foresee the future by sacrificing her own life, hoping that Xuan Yue would change the outcome, and it still didn't work? Didn't she die for nothing?
Okay, there is indeed a successful future, but does Xuan Yue want this future?
It was obvious that Xuan Yue didn't want it, but she had no choice.
Therefore, he alone bears all the sins, while the role of hero is left to the Black Moon Iron Cavalry and Liu Xing, the male protagonist. All their efforts are for the true god Jiu Yuetian to bring down justice and reverse time.
It's possible that when the author was writing the story, Xuan Yue was originally evil, but the character was so charismatic that the author added the villainous character of Muir V to satisfy the readers' wishes, thus redeeming Xuan Yue.
Ahem, I accidentally said something nonsensical again.
Having tricked Xuan Yue into getting on the Bureau's bus, Li Muyang kept his promise and helped revive Morian.
Xuan Yue was stunned: "What?! Now?!"
"What else can I do?" Li Muyang shrugged. "How long do you intend to wait? Besides, I see you've already brought everyone along."
Xuan Yue remained silent for a moment, then took out an ice coffin from what appeared to be a storage device. Inside lay a graceful young woman in a wedding dress, seemingly asleep.
But the scarlet mark on her chest proved that she was dead.
"You didn't even bother to change her clothes," Li Muyang remarked casually. "Or is this some kind of romantic gesture between you two lovers? Oh! This wedding dress, that must be what you wore in your last reincarnation, right? Hehehe~"
Xuan Yue couldn't help but break out in a cross-shaped frown: "...Can't you speak properly? Is it my fault that I didn't want to change? To keep Morian's body in the state it was in at the moment of death, I moved her to the ice coffin immediately. There was no time to change her clothes!"
"And you don't know! Those greedy bastards from the Soren family! They coveted the ability to foresee the future, and at first they absolutely refused to let me take Morian away! They obstructed me time and time again! If it weren't for her sake, that family would have been wiped out long ago!"
"Then I'll help you wipe them out?" Li Muyang said with a wicked smile, "Don't worry! It's just a matter of one slap!"
Xuan Yue's lips twitched, and she said righteously, "Let's forget about it! Let Morian make the decision when she wakes up!"
"Pah! Bronchitis!" Li Muyang scoffed.
"Hmph! They're evenly matched." Xuan Yue snorted coldly.
"Ahem, alright, alright, how do we revive them?" Ai coughed lightly, interrupting the two men whose competitive spirit had been inexplicably aroused. Xia He, Pu Siqinglan, and Cang Yue were all extremely curious! Could they really be revived?
It's a reversal of life and death!
Li Muyang glanced at Xiao Ai and the other girls, and said meaningfully, "In your view, the process of resurrection may be very boring and inexplicable."
"However, I can tell you the principle. In order to ensure that it is the person who is resurrected, I will enter the river of time and go back to the moment when the deceased died, take away her soul, return to the present to heal her body, and put it back in."
Everyone, including Xuan Yue, looked at them strangely. Goodness, you're making it sound so easy. Anyone who didn't know better would think you were out grocery shopping!
When did it become so easy to enter the river of time and space and cause trouble?
“It wasn’t easy.” Li Muyang could see what the people present were thinking, and he spread his hands and said, “I’m doing this with the help of another power. I can’t try things without limits. Besides, I already have some things to do in the River of Time. Reviving Morian is just a side thing.”
"Once you miss this opportunity, you might never get another chance! This kind of opportunity doesn't come around all the time!"
If Miyano Akemi hadn't been there, she would have understood that Li Muyang was referring to his journey to the River of Time to comprehend the Dao and incidentally rescue the people from the Honkai Impact 3rd world.
"...Okay, I understand. So what preparations do we need to make?" Xuan Yue was stunned for a long time before she came back to her senses. She felt that this method was a bit presumptuous, but she felt that this kind of resurrection was very reassuring because she couldn't find any problems.
Li Muyang waved his hand: "No need to prepare anything. If you're interested, I can show you around."
After glancing at Ai, who was showing signs of interest, Li Muyang said coldly:
"As for you, forget about it. Protecting Xuan Yue is already a struggle for me. Taking him along is mainly to explain the reason to the Great God! He'll be a witness. I've already said that there's a price to pay for my entry into the River of Time!"
Ai nodded understandingly. Well, if it's inconvenient, then forget it. She's not the type to make a fuss.
"Alright, are there any other things we need to be aware of? Also, how do we get there?" Xuan Yue took a few deep breaths, looking like she was going to her death.
Li Muyang was speechless: "Don't worry, I'm here. As for precautions?... Heh, my advice is, if you don't want to die, you'd better not do anything and not touch anything! That way I can guarantee how you go in and how you come out!"
"Oh, by the way, if nothing unexpected happens, we should run into some high-ranking officials from headquarters on this trip. If you still have any questions about the Administration, you can ask them while you're at it."
Xuan Yue was embarrassed: "Why didn't you say so earlier! Was it really necessary to make such a big fuss?"
"Do you think rescuing people from the river of time is an easy thing? Do you really think it's like buying goods from a supermarket?" Li Muyang glared at him with dead fish eyes and complained. The difficulty of this skill is not resurrection or healing, but rescuing people from the river of time!
“Hesitate.” Xuan Yue was speechless and choked with emotion.
Then, Li Muyang, from who knows where, produced a silver-gray ribbon and tied it around Xuan Yue's neck.
It's this rope art of binding... cough cough!
"Why the hell are you tying me up so professionally?!" Xuan Yue's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot again, and goosebumps rose on her skin! What kind of special hobby is this?!
Damn it! If it were Morian, the Emperor Xuan Prince would say it wouldn't be a problem. After all, he had basically tried all sorts of play back then.
But if it's Li Muyang... tsk tsk tsk... get lost!
Li Muyang said with a long face, "I'm just afraid it'll be too loose! If you fell into the River of Time, I can't even guarantee you'd be alright! Just make do with it!"
Li Muyang would never admit that he got carried away and used the techniques he had researched before! Ahem! And don't ask me why I researched this stuff! I don't know!
It's all the fault of the great god Pangu! He crammed everything into the legacy!
Pangu (???): Huh?! I'll give you another chance to rephrase your words!
Li Muyang: Ahem! Let me clarify beforehand! Pangu's rope-wielding skills are for a legitimate purpose!
The more you describe, the darker.
Ahem! It's time to get down to business!
Let's go down to the river!
The long river of time and space!
From Xiao Ai's perspective, Li Muyang and Xuan Yue's figures were suddenly pulled, twisted, and deformed by an inexplicable force. The two gradually changed from a realistic style to a 3D style, then to a pixel style, then to a 2D anime style, then to an abstract painting, then to a line art style, and finally disappeared.
All traces vanished, as if these two living people had never existed.
"So... we've traveled through the river of time?" Xia He blinked in confusion, reaching out to try and touch the space where the two had disappeared.
"It should be." Cang Yue pondered for a moment. She also had the ability to open time tunnels. However, her time tunnels were of two types: one was for places she had been to or locations with locked coordinates, which she could open a passage to at any time.
Another type is where the landing point cannot be determined; it is completely random.
The feeling of Li Muyang bringing Xuan Yue through time just now gave Cang Yue a sense of familiarity, yet it was also somewhat different.
Most importantly, she felt that although she could see and sense it, she couldn't pinpoint the coordinates on the other side of the passage!
Her knowledge base was insufficient to explain it immediately; she could only wait for a future opportunity, or until Li Muyang returned, to inquire about the situation.
