Xuan Mian looked at the bone bird and slowly stretched out his hand...
Jiangchuan's eyes narrowed slightly. Even though Xuanmian's emotions had calmed down a lot, he still couldn't help but feel nervous.
But the next second, Xuan Mian spread out his palms - a pile of crystal fragments fell to the ground with the wind.
crystal?
Something flashed through Jiangchuan's mind. After a brief moment of stunned silence, he suddenly laughed.
My fellow junior students are quite capable.
Everything in the inner world begins to fade, revealing the external, real world.
The lifeless girl fell to her knees on the ground and disappeared into a shadow.
A girl with bright eyes and neat clothes stood beside the bone bird and stared at Xuan Mian unhappily: "You idiot in school uniform, if you dare to hurt Qingqing, I will let Kaka send you to the demon world!"
The purple-haired boy, covered in scars and with a bloody hole in his chest, was now standing behind Shen Jueyu unharmed.
He walked forward and pulled the stunned Xuan Mian to his feet: "You killed the Demon King alone. I admit that you have the ability to rival mine."
"..."Xuan Mian: "Eh???"
"Why do you look so stupid?" Chen Jueyu ran over to him and pinched his cheek. "I gave you the crystal and told you to crush it after you were done... Didn't you guess that?"
Xuan Mian's eyes widened: "Should I have guessed it??"
"No, wait—what's going on?"
Shen Jueyu no longer paid any attention to him. She waved to Kaka, who excitedly rushed to her side: "Xiaoyu! Xiaoyu!"
After Kaka left, the girl who was protected by it was revealed.
Unlike the inner world, in the outer world, her crimson eye was still embedded in her delicate pale face, blinking in a daze.
Shen Jueyu touched Kaka, and then his eyes fell on the girl.
She took a step forward.
Yu Fengshi looked at her background and explained to Xuan Mian calmly, "Xiao Yu had already guessed that Qingqing would do something to harm us in order to protect the 'past'. Therefore, the god she summoned just now was not used to deal with the Demon King. The mandrake was just a decoration - the god she really summoned was Metatron, who can use the inner world of a person to create the outer and inner worlds."
“???” Three question marks appeared on Xuan Mian’s forehead.
Yu Fengshi said calmly, "I know you don't understand. In short, everything you just experienced is real. You are in the 'surface world,' while Xiaoyu, Qingqing, and I are in the inner world. Our experiences all happened in the inner world. After returning to the surface world, everything will belong to another possible future."
Xuan Mian barely understood: "Everything in the outer world is the present world, and the inner world is just a branch of the future. Once you leave the inner world, everything will disappear, and time will return to before the gods were summoned."
"That's it."
"So..." Xuan Mian laughed with relief, "You guys really had this planned long ago."
Yu Fengshi curled his lips: "Don't act like you know nothing. You didn't use your full strength when you attacked Qingqing just now."
Xuan Mian was exhausted and half leaned on Yu Fengshi's shoulder. "It's just... a vague guess."

【???】
[You all understand? But I'm still confused. What's going on? What did Xiaoyu set up?]
[Great! ! ! ! I knew it! The only real fool is me! I'm so happy! ! !]
[No matter what! ! ! ! ! Everyone is still alive! ! ]
[Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!! As expected of the Jade God!]
Xiaoyu had long known that Qingqing would hurt them, so she had already made preparations. The other two also knew something about it—this was all that was known at the moment.
Now I'm a little confused. If they knew, why did they say those things before? Why did they act so hateful towards Qingqing?
[Wow, so warm, I cried]
Shen Jueyu squatted down, poked the white-clothed girl's cheek, and smiled sweetly:
"Qingqing."
The girl blinked, her voice a little hoarse: "Xiaoyu?"
"Yes, it's me." Chen Jueyu tilted his head and said, "Although Qingqing's illusion is also great, it's still a little worse than Mei Shen's. So, from the moment Qingqing knocked over the candle with her illusion, I knew - Qingqing never intended to kill me."
"Xiaoyu."
"Yeah, I'm listening."
"Xiaoyu."
"What do you want to say, Qingqing?"
"Xiaoyu..."
"exist!"
"Xiaoyu!"
"……Um."
Shen Jueyu held her hand, his smile gradually disappeared, and bean-sized tears fell from his eyes and shattered on the ground.
Her eyelashes drooped, and her eyes fell on her friend's exposed arm.
The black lines were like bone-eating poisonous snakes, entwining around the girl's fair skin and extending inward until they were covered by her clothes.
It wasn't the curse she'd spoken of, but it was nonetheless a curse.
It was a curse caused by reversing time and making a deal with the gods—it meant that she was the prey targeted by the gods.

"Qingqing..." She gently stroked the girl's forehead. "Even in your deepest subconscious, you must conceal this. The content of your negotiation with God is that after the timeline is corrected, your body, soul, and existence will all belong to God."
The girl's pupils contracted.
"I'm sorry I visited your subconscious."
Chen Jueyu said: "We have all seen your past. No, it should be said that it is the past of the three of us."
