Chapter 887 Retreat

After chatting with Xingchen and Lin Yunqing for a while, Yu Cang left.

Yu Cang was quite concerned about Xingchen's condition.

On the one hand, she is his indispensable comrade-in-arms.

On the other hand, Blue Star needs her very much in the future spiritual field.

Today's soul card system is inseparable from the spirit particle system.

Whether it is the production of connecting soul cards or the exploration of the starry sky vision, spirit particles are very important materials and tools.

And now on Blue Star, apart from Yu Cang, no one can be better than Xingchen in the research of leptons.

and……

Yu Cang's eyes flashed.

If Xingchen did not choose to end her own life, then after she completed the creation of the world, perhaps Xinghe would do something to surprise her.

But he couldn't talk about that kind of thing now.

Thinking of this, Yu Cang left Ruins No. 8 and went to some other places to meet some old friends.

With Yu Cang's current strength, moving around Blue Star is no different from taking a walk in his own living room. No matter where he goes, it is just a matter of thought.

Those classmates who helped in Yu Cang's laboratory are still in school now.

Well, after all, only two years have passed.

It’s only been two years.

Yu Cang was a little dazed for a moment.

Jiang Lou, Qiu Ding, Wang Changzhi and others have now entered their junior year and are about to participate in the National College League.

However, the difference is that because of Yu Cang... the soul card masters' cultivation speed has increased significantly.

Therefore, the standard for the national college league has become that only level six can participate.

The three of them took the paths of connection, excess and integration respectively, so they naturally met this condition long ago.

It is worth mentioning that the Academy Island concentrates almost all the top teacher education in the entire Blue Star, but the major universities in the twelve cities of Yan Country are still not lagging behind.

College students from the twelve cities of Yan Country would go to the Academy Island for exchange and study for a year, and each time, it was basically a bloody battle.

Especially at the Ancient Capital University, the teachers there would tell their students that if they couldn't beat up all the students of the same grade on the Academy Island, they should forget about coming back.

As Yu Cang's hometown, it has the strength and confidence.

Li Anjiu is now a security guard at Gudu University... well, a security guard.

This was his own initiative.

The classmates from the Battle Club have now graduated and gone to different places.

I heard that Lu Zihe and Xing Su finally got together.

Maybe it’s because Lu Zihe found that she could not become the Duel King... probably.

Duan Feng is still fighting in the Nightmare Border. It is said that he has found the way to become a myth and it is possible that he will become a myth one day.

Along the way, Yu Cang met many old friends. After meeting them one by one, Yu Cang returned to the ancient capital.

…

Gudu Central Hospital

Yu Cang blocked his sense of existence, walked up the stairs like an ordinary person, and came to the outside of a room.

He took a deep breath, and then... pushed open the door of the ward.

Inside, the sun is shining brightly.

The window was open and the curtains fluttered gently in the breeze. In front of the bed, Gu Jieshuang was sitting on a chair with a smile on her face, teasing the baby in her arms.

Seeing this scene, Yu Cang couldn't help but smile.

He straightened his clothes and then walked into the ward.

A year is a long time, long enough for Gu Jieshuang to change from an innocent girl to...

"Eh? Xiao Cang, you're here."

Mu Xuezhi's eyes lit up as she lay on the hospital bed, and she quickly waved, "Come quickly, your brother said he wanted to see you this morning."

"Nonsense." Yu Shuhong said beside him, "The child can't even speak, how can he recognize his brother?"

"I'm his mother, how could I not know?"

…

Yeah, that's right.

It was enough to transform Gu Jieshuang from a naive girl into a naive sister-in-law.

That child was Yu Cang's younger brother. After the old couple Yu Shuhong came back, they also fell into depravity. A year later, they forced themselves to have another child.

It makes sense. They have now become myths through ritual summoning, and each one is healthier than the other. Not to mention having another one, even having a whole litter would be no problem.

"You're just worrying for nothing," Mu Xuezhi said, pulling back the quilt. "Do I need to stay in confinement after childbirth with my current health?"

Yu Shuhong quickly held her down and tucked the quilt back in. "The laws of our ancestors cannot be changed... Just take good care of yourself and let me serve you for a while."

Although nothing will go wrong with the myth, what if something goes wrong?

Giving birth to a child is very likely to leave sequelae.

"You." Mu Xuezhi looked helpless.

"Mom, it's a good thing to take a break." Yu Cang also said at the right time.

Talking about decadence is just a joke. The old couple has not been idle since they came back. In the past year, they have produced countless research results, filling a considerable number of academic gaps.

His level of hard work is no less than Yu Cang's back then.

Now, it's a good opportunity to take a break.

"Okay, give me the child."

Mu Xuezhi took the child from Gu Jieshuang's arms: "Go, I know you two have something to say."

"Hehe." Gu Jieshuang stood up, "Then Dad, Mom...we'll leave first."

After saying that, he took Yu Cang's hand and left the ward.

Although there were no children, the wedding had already taken place, so naturally the matter was changed.

That day was very lively.

…

The two held hands and came to the rooftop of the hospital.

"It's a nice day today."

Gu Jieshuang stretched lazily.

"yes."

There was always a faint smile on Yu Cang's face.

They didn't have children, not for any other reason.

There was a saying before that it would be difficult for beings at a higher level of life to leave behind offspring.

Well, this statement does make sense, but it has little impact on Yu Cang.

He could use his divine perception to easily understand the reasons behind this fact, and then use his authority to change it.

If Yu Cang wants a child, he can have it at any time, and he doesn’t even need to let Gu Jieshuang go through ten months of pregnancy.

But this is not the reason for not having children.

But...I don't want to.

Now, no one on Blue Star can match Yu Cang in terms of status, wealth, fame, and strength. There is no doubt that he can give the child everything he wants.

Except love.

Yu Cang will soon go into seclusion, and this may not last for 50 years.

This period of time may not seem long in terms of mythology, but for a child, it means an incomplete childhood that can never be compensated.

Yu Cang cannot give his child a childhood with fatherly love, and the child will not give Yu Cang the opportunity to make amends in the future, so Yu Cang would rather not have a child.

Not to mention, after the retreat comes the creation of the world, which is an extremely long period of time with no end in sight. Even Gu Jieshuang may not be confident that he can survive it.

For Yu Cang, he also has the simple concept of bloodline of Yan country men and hopes that he can have a descendant.

But if he is unable to take responsibility for the child and cannot give him all his love... then he believes that in this situation, forcing himself to have a child is a selfish act.

Of course, this is just Yu Cang's own idea and his requirement for himself. It cannot represent other people. After all, everyone's circumstances are different.

Fortunately, Gu Jieshuang respected his decision.

Yu Shuhong and his friends found it difficult to understand at first, but in the end they chose to respect it - and then they had a child of their own.

This certainly doesn't mean that the two elders don't love Yu Cang, it's just that the Creator God has his own persistence, and mortals have their own wishes, don't they?

Yu Cang came to the railing and looked forward.

A gentle breeze blew by, ruffling Yu Cang's hair.

At this time, Gu Jieshuang suddenly said:

"This won't be the last time we meet, right?"

Yu Cang's expression subsided slightly.

"It shouldn't be that bad."

Before the words fell.

Gu Jieshuang had already thrown herself into Yu Cang's arms.

Yu Cang paused.

At this moment, he clearly felt that the person in his arms was trembling slightly.

He sighed softly, raised his hand and patted Gu Jieshuang on the back.

It shouldn't be that bad.

What this means is...

Very likely.

After all, Yu Cang himself was not sure how long he would remain in seclusion this time, or what would happen when he came out.

Perhaps, when coming out from the deepest level of the world of consciousness, one would have to start the creation of the world directly... who knows.

So, this could indeed be the last time we see each other.

The two of them hugged each other like this, and no one spoke first.

They had only known each other for two years, and it was hard for them to imagine the long period of waiting for each other that followed.

a long time.

Gu Jieshuang pushed Yu Cang away a little. She raised her head and her gentle gaze fell on Yu Cang's face. Her eyes trembled as she carefully scanned this face that she was very familiar with.

It seemed as if he wanted to imprint Yu Cang's appearance in his soul.

"...Don't worry, I'll be back as soon as possible after the creation of the world. I will definitely..."

He was about to use an oath to comfort the girl in front of him.

However, what she received was a gentle yet firm rejection.

"don't want."

Yu Cang was stunned: "No?...Why..."

"I know that the Creator will definitely fall in love with his creation. This is true for Yuanchu and Chaoci as well."

Yu Cang: "..."

"Besides...it's you."

Gu Jieshuang gently placed her head on Yu Cang's chest and slowly closed her eyes.

"A gentle person like you would never be willing to disregard your own life."

This may be the curse of the Creator.

Chao Ci could have hatched early, but because he couldn't let go of the creatures on the blue planet, he chose to stay in his eggshell for hundreds of millions of years.

If Chao Ci was like this, Yu Cang must be the same.

However, it is normal for living beings to be born when the world is created.

Just as the Original God had His stars.

After the creation of the world, if Yu Cang was ruthless, he might be able to quickly escape from the state of creation and return to Gu Jieshuang's side.

However, the price of doing so would most likely be that Yu Cang would have to personally kill those creatures that were born because of him.

For example, if the Primordial left the Astral Plane, what would happen to the Astral Plane?

Perhaps, the stars will be extinguished forever, never to shine again, and the whole world will be plunged into eternal darkness.

Gu Jieshuang is already a legend, and she often comes into contact with Chao Ci. She is already aware of this situation.

Yu Cang's eyes trembled slightly: "No one is more important than you."

"There is—only yourself. You must love yourself more than you love me."

Gu Jieshuang listened to Yu Cang's heartbeat, and then said firmly: "I know what choice you will make. If you kill your own life just because you want to see me quickly and go against your own kindness, then you are no longer yourself... I don't want to see you like that.

"Promise me that when you come back from this new world, you must be a complete version of yourself. Don't give up any part of yourself because of me, okay?"

Hearing these words, Yu Cang couldn't help but remain silent.

The look in his eyes suddenly became complicated, and it was hard to tell what emotion was in it.

After a long time, he nodded gently:

"Okay, I promise."

"Um!"

Gu Jieshuang responded, quietly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and then left Yu Cang's arms.

“This is my boss!”

The two looked at each other, and then suddenly laughed together.

"I won't do that—but don't worry," Yu Cang said, "I won't keep you waiting too long."

"Okay, it's up to you."

Gu Jieshuang chuckled.

Then, she thought about it and said,

"In that case, let's make a bet."

"What bet?"

"Let's bet on how long it will take you to come back—"

Gu Jieshuang turned around and looked at the ancient capital city ahead.

"Well... one trillion years, how about that?"

"Hmm...Okay."

"I bet it will exceed!"

"Then it seems I can only bet no more than that."

"hey-hey."

"Since it's a bet, what's the stakes?"

"Let me think—a kiss, how about that?"

"A trillion-year bet, all for a kiss?"

"Then you say it."

"I... haven't thought about it yet."

"Hehe~"

The two of them stood on the rooftop, leaning against each other, and the sky gradually darkened as they watched.

…

World of Knowledge

The will of the Star God stands in rhythm.

In front of him, a small shadow existed.

"I'm ready!"

There was a rhythmic fluctuation in Jieying's body and his eyes were unusually determined.

My dear scholar, it’s time to start your retreat.

Then... he is going to go into seclusion too!

Although Yu Cang didn't ask too much of him, the pressure on him had been increasing over the past year.

The other comrades of the scholar have achieved more and more successes, not only in battles, but also in various fields of Blue Star.

There are fewer and fewer ways he can help the scholars.

This won’t do!

In fact, he has not given up in the past year, and has been constantly trying to enter the "second realm of consciousness" of the Star God's will, trying to gain power from there.

However, the results were minimal.

And this time, the scholar is about to go into seclusion... If he waits until the scholar comes out, he will be completely unable to help.

So, this time, he made up his mind to die.

He also wants to go into seclusion!

This time, he abandoned most of his foundation in the world of consciousness and planned to completely enter the second world of consciousness. He vowed not to come out until he had completely mastered it!

No one asked him to, but he had a hunch.

This is the last chance.

The second realm of consciousness theoretically belongs to Chao Ci, so there is no bottleneck in the control of the realm. In this case, what else can't be done?

Must go into seclusion!
