His mental energy followed his gaze, sweeping over the small black dots behind the painting. However, when he touched the first image, his spirit was lifted.
"Brother Achi thinks I'm too young? Am I still too young?"
“Zhaoyu is Achi’s daughter, whom he raised himself. How could she be bad?”
"I want to marry Achi! I don't care, I just want to marry Achi!"
"Qingyue's little lover is not simple at all, but I think he is a willing buyer and a willing seller."
"Achi, even after I die, my crystal core will continue to protect you forever."
“Achi…”
A flood of memories rushed into his mind—memories that he had compressed and buried deep within himself during his long life in the small world, now surging forth once more.
"Master, Master, are you alright? What happened to you, Master?"
"Ah Chi, Ah Chi, don't look at it anymore, throw it away, Ah Chi, throw it away!"
Xiao Hei and Yunxiao's anxious voices came through, and Yunxiao, pale-faced, tried to snatch the painting from his hand and throw it away.
Bai Chi forced himself to come back to his senses, grabbed Yun Xiao and held him tightly in his arms, preventing him from snatching the painting.
"I'm fine. I just saw some old memories."
There are too many memories, especially many small worlds that span tens of millions of years, or even until the world is destroyed.
The sudden surge of energy caused his mental energy to fluctuate for a moment, startling Yunxiao and Xiaohei beside him.
“Master, your mental energy was fluctuating so violently just now that even your husband was affected.”
Bai Chi nodded to indicate that he understood, and then looked at Yun Xiao, who was being held in his arms.
"Don't worry, I'm fine. How are you? Does anything hurt?"
No wonder Yunxiao's face was pale. He hadn't expected that their spiritual connection was so close. He only had a fluctuation in his spiritual power, and Yunxiao had already had an adverse reaction.
Yunxiao's face still showed worry as she looked at the painting in his other hand, her eyes filled with disgust and loathing.
If Bai Chi hadn't kept stopping him, he probably would have torn the painting up.
Yunxiao should be able to do it now.
"I'm not feeling bad anymore, Ah Chi, don't look at this anymore, it's not a good thing!"
Still indignant.
Bai Chi was both amused and exasperated. He was the one who let it in, yet he was the one who was rejecting it.
"Okay, it was just an accident. It won't happen again, don't worry."
However, Bai Chi now understands Mu Yunxiao's plan.
He was probably afraid he wouldn't admit it.
After all, it's no secret that he always buries his memories in a corner after returning from the small world; he does it all in front of Xiao Hei.
Given the relationship between Xiao Hei and the mainframe, it would be easy to get information out of it. Xiao Hei might not even have realized it, but it had already revealed the information, and then Mu Yunxiao found out.
Perhaps he was afraid that he would forget everything once he left the small world, so he put all the memories of the small world here.
Even her sudden appearance in the morning was to remind him to examine these memories.
Bai Chi was moved, yet also somewhat amused and exasperated.
How much does he distrust him? Or is he insecure about himself?
Putting everything else aside, based on their spiritual contract and years of joint cultivation, they are already inseparable.
Even if some of them do lose their memory, they will never lose their emotions; their spirit and their soul have already merged into another person.
However, upon reflection, he began to understand why Mu Yunxiao had gone to such great lengths to send the spaceship through space, expending so much mental energy, and now had to find him in the small world to recover.
I suppose all of this has only one reason, right?
Aside from wanting to speed things up, there's only one other reason: they're worried that once the arrest warrant is lifted, they'll deny everything.
It was both laughable and lamentable.
Bai Chi hung the painting back on the wall, not forgetting to continue calming Yunxiao's spirit. He had expended a lot of energy earlier and had just been affected by Bai Chi.
However, he also had Yunxiao test him with his mental power.
Unfortunately, neither his eyes nor his mental exploration could reveal anything.
It seems that only Bai Chi can see these memories, and they are also a special reminder to Bai Chi so that he will not forget himself.
After learning the whole story, Xiao Hei suddenly understood.
'I remember now, the mainframe did ask, asking if you had ever experienced mental disorder or a split in humanity after visiting so many small worlds.'
After all, they didn't enter the small world only after being sentenced to exile.
Many years ago, when Bai Chi had just gained the ability to remember things, and Xiao Hei had only been bound to Bai Chi for a short time, they began to enter the small world.
The long experience within the small world was also the fundamental reason why Bai Chi was able to suppress the violent spiritual entity and think calmly, instead of exploding and dying like other experimental subjects.
Therefore, the mastermind asked this question. The master's mental state after returning was not something that needed to be kept secret, so Xiao Hei naturally told him directly.
'I told him that every time the master returns from the small world, he seals away those memories to avoid being influenced by them, so there's nothing wrong with him.'
Xiao Hei raised his chin, quite proudly.
Bai Chi: '...'
It turns out that Mu Yunxiao went through all the trouble of organizing their memories and putting them into this small world, so that even when threatened by the world's consciousness, he would wake up and remind it, all because of Xiao Hei's words.
'I'm just blurring the memories, not sealing them away!'
Bai Chi's teeth grinding correction was fine before. It was one thing for him and Mu Yunxiao to be all lovey-dovey in various small worlds, but now that he was facing his memories from another perspective, it was like watching a love documentary, and he felt a strange sense of shame.
These things shouldn't have happened, but Xiao Hei kept saying the wrong thing, which led Mu Yunxiao to believe it.
However, this only further confirms Bai Chi's previous guess: Mu Yunxiao and the mainframe are indeed in cahoots.
Bai Chi was still unclear about the two people's motives.
Anyway, it shouldn't just be about saving himself. If that were the only reason, he wouldn't have gone through all this trouble. He could have just saved him directly, or used the mainframe to modify the capture program. It wouldn't have been difficult at all.
After all, he can cooperate with the mainframe, so wouldn't it be best to do whatever is easiest?
But he didn't.
Therefore, Mu Yunxiao's purpose was not just to help him.
"Achi, don't look at that, it's not good."
With one hand covering his eyes, Bai Chi involuntarily took a deep breath as the fragrance of peach blossoms wafted towards him.
As expected of a celestial being, does this mean she has a natural fragrance?
"Okay, I'm not watching anymore. What do you want to watch?"
Bai Chi didn't look at it any further. Since he had chosen to believe, he naturally wouldn't doubt it without reason. Besides, given Mu Yunxiao's identity, or at least the identity he guessed, he certainly had great potential.
"Achi, let's play games together! Look at this guy, he always tries to ambush me every time I log on. He even spends money on equipment. Achi, let's beat him together!"
"Okay, I'll create another account to keep you company."
