study.

After Long Xiaosheng left, Old Master Long raised his relaxed eyelids and asked, "Ayan, how is your research on drugs to control the virus going?"

Since learning that Lao Wu had taken away the virus, we have never stopped researching antidotes for the virus over the years.

The purpose is so that if one day a virus really brings annihilation to humanity, medicine can be used in time to save all mankind.

Viruses nurtured in black holes are different from ordinary viruses.

Cunning, cunning, capable of lurking and mutating...

The Long family, after all, was not good at pharmaceutical manufacturing.

Despite twenty years of research, no drug has yet been developed to control this virus.

After much deliberation, I finally sent Ah Yan to Base Nine.

At the time, Base Nine was the most authoritative research institute in the world.

Grandpa Long hoped that Long Jingyan could find a breakthrough at Base No. 9 and develop a drug to inhibit the virus as soon as possible.

Unfortunately, this wish has not yet been fulfilled.

The humans in that world were suffering terribly.

"Sorry, there has been no progress at the moment."

Long Jingyan's eyes dimmed slightly, and he continued, "I think if Qianqian were to take action, we could develop it very quickly."

She persisted for two years, unwilling to involve her daughter.

In the end, he reluctantly dragged her into it.

Sometimes I think about how Qianqian is an artist in this virtual world, and he is her manager.

It's good that the two of them are in this world together, embarking on different lives hand in hand.

As it turns out, some things don't turn out as he hoped.

When the grandfather, who had been carrying a heavy burden, could no longer bear it.

As a member of the Long family, he should take on the responsibility and move forward.

"Is Xiaoqian... alright?" Old Master Long sighed softly.

How could he not see the helplessness Ah Yan felt, wanting to consider the bigger picture but having no choice but to involve Xiao Qian in the situation?

"Xiao Qian is fine, she just doesn't remember us."

A layer of suppressed emotion filled Long Jingyan's eyes. "Someone wants to stop her from joining forces with our Long family."

"I'm afraid the person behind this is closely related to Fifth Uncle."

Old Master Long's wrinkled face contorted with rage. "You unfilial son! After all these years, he still hasn't given up!"

If he hadn't secretly opened the black hole back then, how could so many troubles have arisen?

The lives of billions of people worldwide will be lost because of his greed.

The thought of this pained Old Master Long deeply!

In her anger, her voice softened slightly, "Xiaoqian, is she willing to help you?"

Xiaoqian had been at Base No. 9 for many years, and Fu Liangping had kept the virus a secret from her.

Would she really be willing to be exposed to the virus now?

“Perhaps she would be willing,” Long Jingyan said uncertainly.

Of all the people at Base Nine, only Qianqian's keen medical sense earned his respect.

She seems to have been born for medicine.

His memory drifted back to when he was eight years old, when he met four-year-old Xiao Qianqian.

At that time, he was experiencing the pain of his heart being torn apart.

In the moment before he lost consciousness, he seemed to see the Black and White Impermanence carrying chains, about to take him away.

Grandpa said this was his destined catastrophe.

Only by persevering can we have a future.

If he doesn't survive, there will be no more Long Jingyan in this world.

"Big brother?"

The childish voice parted his murky world, bringing a glimmer of hope.

He seemed to see the Black and White Impermanence gradually fading into the distance.

Upon seeing the girl with a halo above her head, he took out a silver needle and stuck it into her chest.

His torn heart gradually stopped hurting.

My breathing also seemed to become easier.

Qianqian is the girl who brought light into his life, the person he wants to protect for the rest of his life.

"grandfather."

Long Jingyan snapped out of his thoughts, "Dr. Gu is here, you know?"

Old Master Long's eyes darkened. "Gu Mei, she's been resurrected?"

"Yes, we detected Dr. Gu's brainwaves." Long Jingyan said with a slightly darker look in his eyes, "Xiao Qian said that she has also recognized Dr. Gu."

The guilt that Old Master Long had been suppressing deep in his heart towards Mu Qian finally surfaced when he heard that Gu Mei had been resurrected in this world.

For the first time, I felt that this virtual world should have been launched sooner.

Instead of letting Xiaoqian and Gu Mei continue their mother-daughter relationship after being separated for eight long years.

"Grandpa, now you can tell me..." Long Jingyan's expression turned serious, "What exactly caused Dr. Gu's death back then?"

This question had been weighing on his mind for a long time.

It all started when Grandpa stopped seeing Qianqian...

He never asked because the timing wasn't right, and he was also vaguely worried that the matter was related to his grandfather.

His selfishness made him unwilling to uncover the truth.

If the truth is really as he suspects, he doesn't know how to face Qianqian.

Grandpa Long sighed deeply, "There are some things I still need to tell you..."

Before his life ended.

“I have never told you why your father died.”

Mentioning this matter brings a pang of pain to Old Master Long's heart.

He turned and walked to the bookshelf, pulling out one of the books.

The entire bookshelf descends like a lift platform.

A mirror was revealed.

After the mirror was revealed, images began to appear.

The scene shows Long Tian stopping Long Qingfeng and ultimately blocking the entrance to the black hole with his body, sealing the restless virus inside.

That's how a huge catastrophe was averted.

But Long Tian's sacrifice did not bury this catastrophe.

Long Qingfeng still secretly took some of the virus with him, using a very special silver artifact.

Gu Mei died suddenly from an illness because she was infected with these viruses.

After that, Old Master Long was too ashamed to see Mu Qian again.

He felt guilty for neglecting to allow Long Qingfeng to open the black hole.

This indirectly led to Gu Mei's death.

Long Jingyan looked in the mirror and saw the heroic side of his father and the evil side of his fifth uncle.

Deep down, I was somewhat shocked.

He had considered the reasons why Xu Qingfeng would be expelled from the Long family.

But I never imagined it was because of the black hole gate.

So……

Judging from the recent behavior of Fu Liangping and Fifth Uncle constantly sending brainwaves into this world, it seems that world has already been overrun by the virus.

Grandpa's foresight led him to open a time tunnel two years ago, bringing the entire Long family into this world.

In order to prevent Fu Liangping and Fifth Uncle from finding out, he was left at Base No. 9.

A scheme within a scheme.

In the end, to protect Qianqian, he was sent to this world by Fu Liangping.

Everything was under Grandpa's control.
