"Xiao Che!" Xiao Lingxi hugged the fallen youth with tears running from her eyes.
They were enjoying fish soup when Xiao Che suddenly crashed to the ground with a pale complexion.
Xiao Lingxi has no medical knowledge. So, she couldn't determine the cause of Xiao Che's sudden ailment.
She felt as powerless as ever.
"Step back, girl. I'll handle the rest."
Xiao Lingxi suddenly heard a deep voice and felt a pair of hands on her shoulder. A warm winter coat was covering her body.
Tears blurred her vision, leaving a smidge of the figure's silhouette.
Yes, a broad and strong back. The back that seemingly carried the weight of a whole world.
Xiao Lingxi fainted on the spot, and the thunderclouds above sent a black thunderbolt at Yu Long.
"Yueli, take her away."
"Yes, Young Master." In a flash, a white cloud appeared and wrapped Xiao Lingxi's body, carrying the young lady out of the pavilion.
BOOM!
Yu Long ignored the black thunderbolt and casually waved his hand, erecting a force field. Even though the black thunderbolt possessed immense power that could punish any mortal, Yu Long was on a completely different level.
He stretched his hand, wanting to grab the Mirror of Samsara on Xiao Che's chest. As a result, a powerful soul attack struck Yu Long in retaliation.
Mirror of Samsara, or Reincarnation Mirror, is the seventh of the seven mysterious heavenly treasures. Although ranked last among the Seven Heavenly Profound Treasures, its power is the most mysterious among the seven.
It can pass through the cycle of rebirth and distort cause and effect. The time and conditions for its activation are unknown. After every use, it'll hibernate for 20 years.
Yu Long recalled every information about the Mirror of Samsara in his memory bank and frowned. Truthfully, the Mirror of Samsara is the key to becoming the Against the Gods' Protagonist.
Anything that can distort cause and effect is literally PLOT ARMOR.
Yu Long could feel the mysterious force latching on Xiao Che like a flex tape, protecting him from harm.
But so what?
'You might have the Mirror of Samsara, but I have [Kaiju Maker]!' He put on an excited grin.
Yu Long would like to see which one is stronger.
"Everyone, brace yourself. I'm going to do something big."
The Kaiju inside Yu Long's inner world and other places instinctively felt a deeper connection with their creator. They gasped and immediately supported him with their energy.
Yu Long amassed an astronomical amount of energy, feeling a single touch of his finger could tear space and time. If he wanted to, the Blue Pole Star might disappear because of his presence alone.
The sky turned color.
Bright golden light descended and parted the thunderclouds away.
However, the thunderclouds stubbornly fought back and stayed above the Floating Cloud City.
'Master, the Azure Sky Continent is...' Levy alerted the situation near him.
At the moment, the Azure Sky Continent experienced something akin to a time rewind. Every living entity on the continent disappeared and was 'slowly' replaced with a younger version of themselves.
The dead even returned to the living world.
It was a ridiculous sight, even for Levy. At least, the Levithan knew that the base Yu Long couldn't achieve this result.
Yu Long took note of Levy's words and mumbled, "I see..."
"So, that's why..." He gazed at Xiao Che's pale face. "What a poor guy you are, Xiao Che."
"You're just a pawn used to resurrect the Protagonist."
Yu Long made several guests in his head and knew most missed the mark, but one thing is correct. The death of Yun Che in Cloud's End Cliff triggered Mirror of Samsara's ability.
And Yu Long also knew the Mirror of Samsara wasn't Yun Che. There is a lingering, primordial force inside the pendant.
Yu Long sighed, "I don't have much time."
"You forced me to do this..."
[Forbidden Skill - Kaiju Overdrive!]
Over one hundred thousand high-graded essence spheres inside Yu Long's inner world lit up and lost their glow.
Overflowing vitality burst out, making Yu Long's nicely tied hair flared out and danced wildly from the air pressure.
[Force Bubble (F) >>> Force Bubble(SSS)]
Yu Long stared at the Mirror of Samsara and released an invisible bubble that covered Xiao Che's whole body.
Using [Dragon-Phoenix's Sight], [Profound Sense], and [Insect Emperor's Vision] also allowed Yu Long to see what naked eyes couldn't see.
Meanwhile, [Thoughts Acceleration] and [Bio-Electricity] give Yu Long's godly calculating speed.
"Let's see what you're capable of."
BOOM!
Yu Long's intent penetrated through the Mirror of Samsara and caused another layer crack on its mirror.
"Come on! SHOW ME MORE!" He laughed because the protection inside the Heavenly Profound Treasure had weakened rapidly. The same goes for his Kaiju Maker's force.
"SHOW ME WHAT THIS WORLD CAN OFFER TO ME!"
"HAHAHA~!"
Yu Long was excited.
For once, the [Kaiju Maker] finally met its opponent.
BOOM!
Black thunderbolts and golden light clashed in the sky.
A violent earthquake shook the surrounding land of Floating Cloud City.
Animals and profound beasts shrieked in horror.
Yu Long grabbed the Mirror of Samsara and yanked it away from Xiao Che's body. Intense white light poured out of the Heavenly Profound Treasure, attempting to escape the [Kaiju Maker]'s grasp.
Countless memories appeared in Yu Long's head, making him frown in disbelief. "T-This is... Damn it." He cursed between his breaths.
"Let go..." A cold female voice ticked Yu Long's heart through his ears.
"Let him GO!"
"LET YUN CHE GO!"
"Otherwise, I'd curse you for eternity..."
Yu Long smiled and flipped his middle finger, "Try me."
BOOM!
Intense energy erupted from the Mirror of Samsara and blew Yu Long away, causing him to fly and crash onto a mountain. But still, his hand is formed on the pendant.
"LET HIM GO!" A dark silhouette stepped on Yu Long's stomach.
Yu Long stared at the dark silhouette dumbly and chuckled with a bloody mouth, "Hehe, you finally revealed yourself, you little witch."
The dark silhouette was none other than Xiao Lingxi. However, her appearance is much different.
Her face becomes more profound and filled with mystery, possessing this indescribable charm. Like Yu Long's hair, her formerly tied hair has fallen to her waist and glowed with dim white light.
At the moment, the two rulers are staring at each other fiercely.
One with anger.
And others with amusement.
Invisible forces collided in the Primal Chaos's stream of destiny.
"What makes you think you're in charge here?" Yu Long mocked indifferently. "I've traced the Mirror of Samsara and found some shady things you've done in the background."
"Oh, Ancestral God."
"It's quite hurtful, to be honest. I thought we were more than acquaintances, considering we have met before..."
"I don't know who you are..." Xiao Lingxi grimaced. Her voice is dripping with a tinge of honey.
Yu Long was amused, "Of course, you don't..."
"The current is only a girl who unleashed a bit of your true power."
"You're too emotional for the Ancestral God of the Primal Chaos. How could you, an ultimate being, be lost to the feeling of a mortal girl?"
"Ridiculous, you're simply playing favorites when countless lives of others changed due to your selfish agenda. You changed the timeline of the world, and you altered it to suit your beloved YUN CHE!"
"YOU FUCKING SIMP!" Yu Long roared in anger. Through the memories he obtained from the Mirror of Samsara, he learned that Xia Qingyue's destiny and fate were 'purposely' tempered!
Yes, Xia Qingyue suffered so much because she was the device to fix Yun Che's destiny. And not to mention every messy thing that happened in the original story.
All this is due to Xiao Lingxi's selfish desire that awakened Ancestral God's consciousness deep in her soul.
It was a temporary and partial awakening but allowed Xiao Lingxi to alter the world as she saw fit. According to the memory, this isn't Yun Che's second life.
It's his fucking third life!
"I-I..." Xiao Lingxi suddenly stuttered. She lifted her hand and covered her face in confusion.
"What am I doing?"
"Xiao Che? Where is Xiao Che?"
After a while, Xiao Lingxi fell to the ground with an emotionless expression.
"This isn't supposed to happen." Her voice came out. It was calmer than Xiao Lingxi and lower by several octaves.
"My 1000th Reincarnation."
"To think, chaos was created by it..."
"No, I created it... At this point, Primal Chaos will cease to exist."
"Yeah, you're fucked!" Yu Long sat up and wiped the blood from his mouth. "Anyway, have you calmed down?"
Xiao Lingxi-! No, the Ancestral God herself stared at Yu Long and answered, "Yes."
"I never thought we would meet again like this, King of Monsters."
"So, what're you going to do to compensate me? Just you know, I wasted my precious force for this crap." Yu Long shows her the Mirror of Samsara.
The useless Heavenly Profound Treasure in his hand is no different than a nice-looking pendant because its cause-and-effect manipulation and reincarnation ability will lie dormant for twenty years.
Ancestral God hesitated for a second, "Before that... Can you let him away?"
"Even though it was my 1000th Reincarnation's selfish desire, her desire is still mine, at the end of the day..."
"Sure, but you have to give something in return." Yu Long put on a sly look.
Ancestral God sighed, "Okay."
"State your demand."
"I want you to become my maid for two hundred years!" Yu Long said without skipping a beat and left the Ancestral God speechless.
The Ancestral God looked at Yu Long's golden eyes and knew there was no room for a bargain. "I can't do that. My current state isn't stable enough to create a new body."
"Don't worry. I can make a new body for you." Yu Long whispered like a devil he was. "All you need to do is give me a piece of your soul."
"I know your true soul will sleep again after this. I won't ask much."
Ancestral God bit her lips and waved her finger, writing a soul contract between her and Yu Long. There is also a piece of her true soul in this contract.
Yu Long read the contract, "Done."
White light escaped and flew to Xiao Che's dying body, adding a new life to it.
Ancestral God gazed ahead and frowned, "Y-You, You didn't honor the contract?!"
"Why did you erase Yun Che's memory and karma?!"
"He doesn't need it. That guy you Simp over will live as Xiao Che, that everyone knows, not the one you brought from another timeline."
"Be grateful. You make my Qingyue suffer..." He gazed at the Ancestral God indifferently. "If you're any other person, I'd prefer to kill you a thousand, if not a million times, in my inner world..."
"But I know Primal Chaos won't last long without you."
"You better forget about him. You have lived 999 lives, but one corrupts you this much. You know how ridiculous that sounds?"
"From now on, you're my servant." Yu Long leaned forward and lifted the Ancestral God's chin, using [Kaiju Maker] to drag a portion of her true soul out.
After receiving the memory from the Mirror of Samsara, he couldn't think of any other method than this. He felt sorry for the Ancestral God but also ridiculed her weakness.
"See you later, my Ancestral Servant." Yu Long bade farewell.
As the Ancestral God's possession is over, Xiao Lingxi returns to her original appearance, and her energy level rapidly goes down to an ordinary person.
Yu Long waved his hand and created several array formations, sealing Xiao Lingxi's connection with Ancestral God's true soul.
From now on, she will only live as Xiao Lingxi and nothing else.
Poor Ancestral God. She doesn't know that Yu Long has tempered her path of cultivation.
"Her 1000th Reincarnation has become invalid. Ancestral God, Don't worry. You will be reborn as one of my greatest masterpieces." Yu Long laughed and brought Xiao Lingxi back to the Xiao Clan.
