Chapter 171 A Long Dream

Despite Xie Tu's powerful blow, the screen miraculously remained intact, with only tiny ripples appearing on its surface.

However, the previously still air molecules began to stir, forming vortices that were difficult to detect with the naked eye, plunging the entire office into an unprecedented transformation.

The fire phoenix raised its head and let out a loud cry before rushing towards the vortex.

The sound of a phoenix's cry echoed in the office.

The two people inside looked at the enormous phoenix emitting flames.

A strange change occurred in the light emanating from the fire phoenix.

The raging flames gradually subsided, receding slowly into the body like a tide, and the outstretched wings gradually closed, with each feather sticking tightly together.

Its body is gradually shrinking!

The little bluebird tilted its head, its eyes wide with curiosity, watching this magical scene.

The reverse time travel is accelerating.

The noise outside the window receded into my ears, but I couldn't make out what they were saying at all.

The receding phantom was moving faster and faster.

The students running on the playground were so fast that they were just afterimages.

The surrounding scenery became illusory, flashing by like a fleeting glance, with each frame becoming blurry.

Xie Tu subconsciously looked at the person in his arms.

She remained the same as always, showing no signs of discomfort.

Her chubby, baby-faced features were staring at him with her bright, almond-shaped eyes.

Xie Tu's heart skipped a beat, and his expression became complicated.

The spiritual entities are special; the dark matter came first, and then the contaminated areas, sentinels, and guides were born.

The Fire Phoenix is ​​affected by the reverse spacetime because, as a spiritual entity, it is a product of the intertwining of dark matter and special spiritual energy, and has a deep-seated bond with mysterious matter.

The existence of spiritual entities is a manifestation of the energy of this world, while the emergence of reversed spacetime disrupts the original energy balance.

But he stood there, unlike Yun Zhao, he did not turn into his childhood self.

It has been proven that the time flow rate in the contaminated area has no effect on him.

And what about her?

Why did she suffer a backlash from reverse time travel?

Xie Tu's mind was in a mess, and seeing that she was acting normally, he began to waver.

Can she really recover after the contaminated area collapses?

Xiao Yunzhao had no idea how complicated his feelings were at that moment.

Having watched the spectacle to her heart's content, she finally decided to make her move, saying lazily, "You're so dense, it's dark matter."

As her thoughts shifted, countless bluish-green fluorescent lights suddenly appeared throughout the office.

Their mental energy converged, their goal clear, and they rushed straight for the phone on the table.

The surroundings were enveloped in a layer of cyan light, within which countless strands of spiritual energy, like nimble little snakes, tightly coiled around the phone and continuously seeped into its interior.

The spiritual threads began to frantically devour the dark matter on its body.

Under the glow of the greenish-blue fluorescent light, the desktop suddenly stirred.

The goalkeeper began to struggle violently.

It seemed to come alive, with dark matter constantly gushing out of the phone, trying to resist the invasion of the mental threads.

The bluish-green fluorescence showed no fear, but instead became even more ferocious.

The clash between the blue and black forces created a strange and spectacular scene.

The world shook even more violently.

The phoenix on the ceiling has completed its transformation and become the size of a small bluebird, only the size of a palm.

Xie Tu had to multitask, trying to control his mental body.

Fire Phoenix was excited, but before it could even greet Azure Phoenix, it was forcibly withdrawn from its spiritual domain by its true form.

It felt dissatisfied and voiced its protests.

【What are you doing? 】

Xie Tu: "Control your power. If you can't turn back, you'll stay inside forever and never come out."

Threatening words are very useful.

The fire phoenix unleashed its power once more, its body suddenly returning to its original form, soaring above the spiritual realm.

In no time, it shrank to the size of a palm and squatted on the sycamore tree.

It was curious and tried it several times, eventually mastering the transformation and eagerly wanting to come out again.

The outside world shook even more violently.

Cracks appeared in the sky, indicating signs of collapse.

Xie Tu had long since stopped caring about it.

At this moment, Xiao Yunzhao frowned and raised her delicate little hand.

She saw her own arms appear as phantom images, sometimes as soft little hands, sometimes as slender adult wrists.

"I'm leaving, isn't that right?"

At this moment, Xiao Yunzhao's expression showed a maturity beyond his years. In his childish voice, he said, "I don't remember many things, but the little bluebird told me that I grew up and that eight uncles raised me."

Xie Tu was taken aback; he was unaware of this matter.

"They seem to have changed me..."

Xiao Yunzhao's expression was very confused, but she quickly regained her arrogant look and said, "I think I'm fine the way I am now, and I don't need to change."

Xie Tu unconsciously tightened his embrace around her, responding in a low voice, "Mmm."

It's pretty good.

It doesn't matter what it looks like.

Xiao Yunzhao stared at him, thought for a moment, and commented, "You're pretty good too."

It's very easy to use.

She showed no impatience when serving people, as she didn't mind.

"Your cooking is delicious," Xiao Yunzhao concluded.

Xie Tu smiled, "Then I'll cook more for you in the future."

Whether she was young or grown up, she is still herself.

The dark matter on the gatekeeper's body is being rapidly consumed by the fluorescent light.

The illusory image on Xiao Yunzhao's body gradually became transparent.

Xie Tu could feel that the person in his arms was recovering as the contaminated area collapsed.

Xiao Yunzhao twisted her body and hugged his neck, resting her little face on his shoulder, her voice muffled as she said, "I'm so sleepy, I want to go to sleep."

After she wakes up, she'll be all grown up.

The little bluebird seemed to sense something and flew over to snuggle into Xiao Yunzhao's arms.

"Okay, go to sleep." Xie Tu said in a deep voice, holding her even tighter.

I clearly hope she can return to normal.

But at this moment, a strong sense of reluctance arose in my heart.

She was a bit of a handful when she was little, but she was really cute.

She wasn't wrong. In this cutthroat world, only the strong are not bullied.

The sky is cracking open inch by inch, revealing the snow-capped mountains outside.

The temperature is dropping rapidly.

Xie Tu carefully held her, pulled the oversized school uniform from the office chair, and covered her up completely, leaving only her head sticking out.

He turned and walked out of the office, heading towards the playground.

It's too cold outside.

Her military overcoat was in the car.

The passing figures disappeared one by one, and in just a few steps, the world was left with only them.

When Xie Tu reached the bus, he suddenly realized that the person in his arms was unusually heavy.

Yun Zhao was sleeping soundly and did not wake up.

It was as if she had an incredibly long, yet absurd dream.
