"I didn't believe what he said, but I never expected that tragedy would actually happen." Su Zhou still felt a chill when he recalled that devastating crisis.

“After a person dies, their soul leaves the body and can then travel through time,” Su Zhou said, clutching his chest. “I have learned a lot about formations, and when tragedy was about to befall me, I stumbled into a time-space formation.”

A meteorite struck me, and I thought I was going to die. But when I opened my eyes again, I found myself transported to ancient times.

The doctor listened to his story in silence, still finding it unbelievable. How could there be a formation that could tear through space and time? This must be a joke.

"After traveling back to ancient times, I have been searching for the female emperor who could change our fate, but ancient emperors were all men, and the princesses of that dynasty all married far away, so it was definitely impossible."

As he rubbed his knuckles, he thought of the two princes he had inquired about who were out of favor and lived in a dilapidated temple with their birth mothers. They happened to be not far from him, and he, who was already a military advisor at the time, decided to go and see them.

Looking back now, I'm so glad I had the extra kindness I had; otherwise, I really would have missed out on Mu Qingyun.

"I finally found her. Luckily, I became friends with her. I knew she had been poisoned. She had a younger brother who trusted me completely and thought I was their savior. I came back first and asked her brother to put her body into a spacetime array after she died."

"I returned early, back to the time when my wife had just given birth to Qiluo. I traversed mountains and valleys, finding a hellfire user who had escaped from a boiling volcano, and seized his fire abilities."

Afterwards, I went to the deep sea and took away a water-based ability with exceptionally high purification value that had been nurtured within a seashell.

Forcibly seized?

The doctor looked at him with an inexplicable look of doubt and confusion. Can superpowers be taken away by force?

"I know that Hellfire can cause people to go mad, and although water magic can help suppress it to some extent, it cannot completely suppress it."

At this point, Su Zhou looked up at the doctor, chuckled, and said, "I heard that there is a doctor at the military academy who doesn't care about fame, only about research, and has decided to dedicate his life to scientific research and never marry."

"So, you deliberately abandoned Qi Luo, leaving her on my inevitable path so I could find her?" the doctor asked in surprise. Although Su Zhou's words were all nonsense, there was still some logic to them.

"Yes, I think you are a kind and righteous person. It is admirable that you decided to devote your life to scientific research alone."

Su Zhou was generous with his praise. His words weren't just flattery; he actually thought the same thing. Otherwise, he wouldn't have chosen the PhD in the first place.

"You actually trust me quite a bit." The doctor snorted lightly. Although his attitude was still not very friendly, at least he was no longer as sarcastic and barbed as before.

Su Zhou lowered his eyes and nodded. "Of course, I trust you completely. Otherwise, I wouldn't have ignored him for so many years. I feel comfortable entrusting him to you."

Ha, that's really just an excuse for his irresponsibility.

Even if what he said is true, if open visits are not possible, surely we should at least help him secretly?

Since Su Zhou can even create a spacetime array, he's clearly not an incompetent person. With such abilities, he's even more impressive than him!

However, I'll put my complaints aside for now and focus on asking some important questions.

"Then tell me, what do you mean by sacrifice?" He focused on this point, as Su Zhou hadn't mentioned sacrifice at all.

Upon hearing this, Su Zhou fell silent.

An inappropriate silence aroused the doctor's suspicion. Ha, so all that talk he'd just given was a lie!

Surprisingly, he genuinely followed along with the logic of the story.

Just as he was about to make a sarcastic remark, Su Zhou spoke up.

“I don’t know.” Su Zhou shook his head. “He didn’t tell me when he sacrificed himself, why he sacrificed himself, or how he sacrificed himself. He only told me that he sacrificed my son to save the entire planet.”

"That's why I haven't wanted to see Qi Luo even once all these years. I'm afraid that if I do see him, I won't be able to control myself. In my past life, he and my wife both died right in front of me!"

Su Zhou became more and more excited as she spoke, but the doctor no longer believed her.

Oh, so his silence just now was a new explanation he came up with for himself.

"Keep talking nonsense, keep talking nonsense, let's hear what else you can come up with." The doctor laughed angrily, then picked up the teacup on the table and gulped down several mouthfuls of water.

Seeing the doctor's reaction, Su Zhou was not surprised. He knew how shocking his words were. He hadn't intended for the doctor to believe that he had actually come to see Su Qiluo.

Although the vampire friend didn't specify how Qi Luo sacrificed himself, he did mention that there would be a minor calamity around noon on November 2nd in early winter, and if he could overcome it, it would affect the final outcome.

If not, the gears of fate will continue to turn.

However, it is crucial that he only goes on the day of the event to successfully avert the disaster. Asking others for help or going ahead of time will only lead to failure.

Today is November 2nd.

He had planned to come very early in the morning, but for some reason, he, who usually wakes up at six o'clock sharp, set ten alarms today and asked his wife and housekeeper to wake him up.

But today, he woke up at one o'clock in the afternoon.

I went to bed earlier than usual yesterday, but I woke up unusually late today. I set ten alarms, but my phone suddenly broke down in the middle of the night and crashed. I asked my wife and nanny to wake me up, but they seemed to have completely forgotten about it!

When he woke up and saw that it was one o'clock in the afternoon, he was really on the verge of a breakdown, but he still hoped to come here and see what was going on.

They rushed there with their last hope, only to learn that Mu Qingyun and Su Qiluo were not at the military academy.

"As long as we wait for Mu Qingyun to come back." A trace of sadness flashed in Su Zhou's eyes. "She remembers me, knows me, and she will believe me."

"You mean to say that this Mu Qingyun is not actually Mu Qingyun, but a soul from another world?" The doctor looked at him with obvious doubt.

Now he was a little confused. How could Mu Qingyun be on the same side as this man?

There's no need for this man to lie about Mu Qingyun. After all, she's an imperial princess, a dual-powered individual, and a plant-based power user. She has no reason to lie for this man.

Mu Qingyun had no need to be with this man. Since he dared to ask Mu Qingyun to testify, it meant that what he said was probably true.
