Just as Helan Yuan had predicted, Ai Qingyan was a greedy being who was always demanding. She craved freedom from constraints, yet clung tightly to the privileges he had bestowed upon her.
This contradictory and ridiculous attitude initially pleased the ruler, who was already weary of everything.
What a typical example of ignorance and foolishness: wanting to break free from the chains yet unwilling to part with the gold ornaments on them.
This observational experiment lasted for less than three years.
When Helan Yuan realized that her reactions were becoming predictable, and that her tears and anger were like a poorly rehearsed drama, a wave of boredom washed over him.
So he carefully devised a small opportunity.
The security system, deliberately left with a loophole, conveniently lost its key card in the corridor.
There were also those confidential documents about controlling the planet, which were actually the operating methods of a destruction device, deliberately placed on Ai Qingyan's inevitable path.
When the surveillance footage showed her trembling as she entered the activation password, He Lanyuan was leisurely sipping his black tea.
His slightly upturned lips were reflected in the rim of the porcelain cup.
It was a joyful smile from the Creator as he watched the experimental subject finally reach its predetermined end.
Activate the destruction device; the countdown is now in its final 60 seconds.
A glimmer of expectation finally appeared in Helan Yuan's eyes.
Thousands of interstellar destruction missiles simultaneously entered the detonation sequence across all star systems in the entire Interstellar Federation, and this massive destruction would also have a ripple effect on the neighboring Empire.
“5……4……3……2……1……”
He Lanyuan opened his arms as if to embrace the destruction of the entire universe.
"Bloom, my stars."
The first flash came from the nearest galaxy, then the second, the third...
Like dominoes, a wave of destruction swept across the entire Interstellar Federation at faster-than-light speed.
The ground of the capital planet began to tremble, and the sky was dyed an eerie purplish-red.
Helan Yuan burst into laughter, a laugh filled with a pure joy he hadn't felt in years. He watched as a massive fireball rose on the distant horizon, its shockwave sweeping across and turning everything to ashes.
In his final moments, he saw the same light of destruction rising from the border of the neighboring empire.
The glass shattered, and high-temperature plasma surged into the observation deck.
He Lanyuan felt his skin begin to carbonize, but the pain was so wonderful, so real.
He finally... stopped feeling bored.
"My boring life is finally coming to an end."
In his last moments before losing consciousness, he whispered his last words.
The explosion was so realistic that it made Zi Xi's eardrums ache. Flying shards almost grazed her cheeks. For a moment, she couldn't even tell if it was an illusion or reality.
Only after waking up did she belatedly breathe a sigh of relief. The original owner of this world's wish was undoubtedly to stop Helan Yuan's world-destroying actions.
Unexpectedly, she completed the task by chance without receiving any official assignment.
Even more surprisingly, because the Heavenly Dao of that world forcibly severed the system link, the main system actually took the initiative to issue compensation.
Before Zi Xi could even think about what kind of compensation it would be, the system, which had just been reconnected, was forcibly logged off again, leaving only a string of garbled characters flashing twice in her vision before falling completely silent.
Why are you just staring at it?
A deep voice suddenly came from behind her. Zi Xi turned around and saw He Lan Yuan walking into the backyard with his hands behind his back.
Afternoon sunlight filtered through the leaves, casting dappled patterns of light on his shoulders, giving his casual clothes a touch of languid elegance.
"I was just wondering, how did someone manage to secretly transplant the first rose I ever gave them here?"
She pointed to one of the blooming blue roses in front of her, a mischievous smile playing on her lips.
"And it even has a name..."
As she spoke, she reached out and gently stroked the small plastic sign hanging on the flower stem. The three characters "He Xiaozhi" were written neatly, yet the strokes revealed a hint of tenderness that she couldn't hide.
The petals were still covered with morning dew, which reflected a crystal-clear luster in the sunlight.
He Lanyuan coughed lightly, feeling uneasy, but Zi Xi smiled even more brightly. She had never imagined that one day she would see He Lanyuan looking like a pure and innocent young boy.
"You're so cute."
She blurted it out, then immediately regretted it.
Helan Yuan froze on the spot, his pupils dilating slightly. The next second, he lowered his head and gently kissed Zi Xi's forehead.
