Upon hearing this, she couldn't help but exclaim, "The sundial...it's you..."
“It’s me.” He tightened his grip on her, buried his head in her neck, and deeply inhaled her unique scent. “I’ve waited five hundred years, and finally, the time has come to meet you.”
She was momentarily bewildered, and after a long while, she raised her head, gritted her teeth, and said, "Tell me clearly, what exactly happened?"
Why didn't he die? And why did he come to find her with Xingji's face? And what did he mean by waiting?
Knowing her confusion, he smiled gently and kissed her lips lightly under the umbrella. "Fengguang, don't worry, I'll tell you whatever you want to know."
The idea of creating clones is outdated. Unlike a miracle, the sundial understands itself. It knows that if it were to split itself into three like a miracle, the other two individuals would definitely want to take its place. It always plans ahead, which is why the Star Trail exists.
To be precise, Startrack is not a person; he is merely an empty shell. He possesses only primal human-like action but lacks his own thoughts. In other words, he is like a puppet of the sundial.
As the saying goes, a cunning rabbit has three burrows, and someone as shrewd as the sundial must have more than three. If he dies, then this puppet will come in handy.
To be honest, the purpose of Star Tracks is only to create a "death" for the sundial so that Shen Yue and Mu Gui can kill each other. Therefore, Mu Gui will be injured by Star Tracks, which will make it easier to choose the winner when Shen Yue and Mu Gui fight.
Sundial never liked to kill people himself. Since he could have someone else do it for him, why bother? So, Mu Gui died at Shen Yue's hands, and Shen Yue died at his hands.
Sundial had planned everything perfectly. He told Fengguang to live well so that he could come find her. But the one thing he never expected was that Fengguang would disappear from his world.
Indeed, Feng Guang is a girl from another world. She came suddenly and she will leave suddenly as well. He can send Hua Zhouzhou back to her own time and space, but he cannot send himself to another time and space because he is not a person of Feng Guang's world.
The only way to meet her is to wait, to wait until the time when the scenery is beautiful.
The sundial waited for a full five hundred years before finally finding Feng Guang's figure. However, the Feng Guang he found did not recognize him. He thought that if he had recognized Feng Guang earlier, it might have affected what happened later, so he endured it and continued to wait for the moment when Feng Guang would return.
And now, he has finally waited for it.
After hearing the whole story, Feng Guang suddenly became furious. "You faked your death and even kept it from me!"
“Mu Gui and Shen Yue are not fools. If I tell you all my plans, they will easily see through them.” The sundial kissed her lips again helplessly. “Feng Guang, I just want to protect you.”
"You bastard!" She kicked his leg hard. "Do you know how heartbroken I am?!"
"I know...I know..." He pulled her into his arms again, not even crying out in pain, "Feng Guang can punish me however she wants."
She suddenly softened. It was true that she was heartbroken over his death, but it was also true that he had endured hundreds of years of loneliness while waiting for her. She sighed inwardly, then grabbed his hand and bit it hard. "Sundial, in the coming days, I'm going to settle accounts with you properly!"
Even though she bit him and left teeth marks, he didn't feel any pain or itchiness. Instead, he patted her head in a good mood and whispered, "Whatever Fengguang wants to do to me, I will gladly accept it."
She snorted, but ultimately couldn't bear to leave his embrace.
The patter of rain grew louder, and only under this umbrella did a warmth that seemed out of place on a rainy day emerge.
