[Only you are aware of this temporal shift; even your True Immortal guards are completely unaware of it!]
[Two years and six months to go, the Priest of Time set his sights on the Fire Brothers, but you repelled them.]
"You think I won't find it just because you've hidden it like this?"
The forbidden light of that day enveloped a large part of Purple Wind City, its crimson flames raging to the heavens, yet you extinguished them with two fingers.
[In the original timeline, the opponent should have been dealt with by Huo Lan; your early intervention simply doesn't affect the overall future outcome.]
[This intervention was also to improve Huo Lan's favorability. No one in the entire Purple Wind City knew who had saved them, including the clueless Huo Yang.]
But in the wilderness outside the city, the boy who should have been in a wheelchair blocks your way back to the city, demanding to know who you really are.
"How can such a powerful being exist in this world? What is your purpose in approaching my brother? You possess such immense power, yet you pretend to be unknown, hiding by his side... What are your true intentions?!"
You smiled calmly: "What are your intentions? Shouldn't I be the one asking you that?"
"I have traveled among the stars, walked through the mortal world, and experienced all walks of life. I have only come to know Brother Huo and consider him a confidant. What ulterior motive could I possibly have?"
"Ultimately, I was just here for fun, to make friends as an ordinary person, and to take action when I saw someone targeting my friend. That's all."
You turned the tables and said, "But you... you're the one who really has a problem!"
"I'm just a random handsome guy who happened to pass by, but you're different. You're his brother, someone he's known for over ten years!"
"And his legs were bitten off by a dog a few years ago. Don't you think that's a bit ridiculous?"
You pointed at Huo Lan and said, "Look at your two healthy legs and your burgeoning magical power. According to your civilization's standards, you've probably already reached the level of the gods in mythology, haven't you?"
"A deity who appears to have survived since the time of the Aotian Divine Court disguises himself as an ordinary, unassuming boy and stays by Huoyang's side..."
[You dropped a bombshell, uttering the outrageous statement: "Could he be a gay guy who likes raising and nurturing relationships?"]
The handsome young man opposite him blushed with anger: "You, you're talking nonsense!"
"And in order to get his attention and notice you, you even went so far as to feign a sickly and weak appearance, crippling your own legs to imply that you could only endure whatever happened to you?"
"You're talking nonsense!"
"And you won't even let him see the movie, and you won't let me take him to Park. Are you trying to warp his sexual orientation? You definitely have some ulterior motives!"
"Stop talking nonsense!"
"Could it be... that his Pennsylvania is a backdoor key you reserved long ago? No wonder you wouldn't allow him to use it on anyone else."
"Nonsense!"
"Hehe, you're blushing."
"You're talking nonsense! You're talking nonsense!!!"
"Want me to help you win over your brother?"
"You..." Huo Lan was stunned for a moment, her brain overloaded, unable to immediately grasp the meaning behind your words.
Seeing him freeze in surprise, you teased him by adding, "You're interested in my suggestion?"
"No, no, I don't! I don't!"
Just before he turned completely red, you smiled and turned to leave.
Although the original intention was to build a good relationship, this exchange seems to have made things even more hostile, contrary to your initial goals.
But it's fun.
It's so much fun teasing this little boy and girl.
[However, you know in your heart that although Huo Lan looks effeminate, he's not actually gay. Aside from the abnormal increase in strength after his leg was broken, he's just a normal teenager, at most with some brother complex tendencies.]
However, that kind of brother complex was a deep-seated affection, and it hadn't changed even in the cycle that followed more than two years later.
"Huh? It's really a man?"
"I thought he was a tomboy who wore men's clothes and was raised as a boy with his brother since childhood."
Yun Shou expressed his disappointment.
Nine months to go, in a faraway place unknown to you, an elderly man puts down his work.
Because someone broke down the door.
"You old scoundrel!"
That strike tore through the endless universe, pierced through trillions of cosmic realms, shattered the Great Luo Heaven and Earth, and obliterated even the laws of the Dao.
