[You nodded in response to the baby's unclear question.]
"Yes, it seems you went back to the past with me."
"...I think you're the one who followed me back."
[After chatting for a while, you suddenly heard footsteps outside the door; Huo Yang's parents were approaching.]
He immediately panicked and told you to hide quickly, otherwise it would cause a misunderstanding.
You shook your finger, telling him: In this time and space, he is the only one who can contact you.
Huo Yang's parents pushed open the door. They were the kind-hearted type of noblemen, which was why they weren't doing very well; they were looked down upon by other nobles at banquets.
[His father was a hereditary baron, and the couple entered the house carrying a baby.]
That baby is Huo Lan; they just found the child in front of the door.
The Huo brothers are not blood brothers.
[All I can say is... no wonder one is incredibly ugly and the other is stunningly beautiful.]
Yun Shou discovered the key element from a peculiar angle: "Then their homosexuality wouldn't count as incest."
[Next, you, as a phantom, accompanied Huo Yang as he grew up, and even played with his guitar when you had nothing else to do.]
What could he do?
[Should he rebel against you, a superhuman being billions... billions of times more powerful, with the body of a baby, or should he whine and go to his parents, telling them that there's a hateful creature, invisible and intangible to everyone except him, who plays with him every day?]
To this, you scoff: "Don't look so aggrieved. It's true I'm playing it now, but in a few years—it'll have its day!"
[As an aside, Huo Lan can also see you, but he doesn't have the memory of reincarnation; he's a pure newborn, only admiring his "older brother" in terms of consciousness.]
Neither that ancient deity, nor those who experienced minor chaotic events, could detect your presence.
They are the only two special people in the entire world.
As time passed, the two brothers grew up, and you also began to explore the edges of this world.
As you predicted, the range of your phantom's movement is limited, confined to the planet God's Ashes and a few thousand kilometers into outer space.
[Returning to the ninth year of the past, Huo Yang, possessing memories of his previous life, began studying magic with fervor from a young age, becoming a level 3 mage at the tender age of 10!]
At this point, his mental power wasn't even fully developed; he was practically a monster!
"You're a monster!"
"You're not human! You're a monster!"
This talent is simply monstrous, but in the original timeline, he wasn't much different. Although he only became a level 4 mage at 20, that was because he only started learning magic at 14!
[Since his "rebirth," Huo Yang has been diligently cultivating to change everything he experienced in the past. He finally managed to return to the past, and naturally, he doesn't want that tragedy to repeat itself.]
When Huo Yang was 12 years old, he broke through to the fourth level and asked his family to take him to Purple Wind City so that he could fully display his magical talent.
[Actually, it was to avoid the original war, save his parents' lives, and prevent them from suffering many hardships during their wanderings, as well as causing his younger brother to lose both legs.]
Speaking of his younger brother, Huo Lan...
[Both you and Huo Yang wore strange expressions, because the handsome young man had never shown any unusual behavior, but you both knew that he would undergo a great change in the future.]
At Purple Wind Academy, Huo Yang also made a chubby friend who scratched his head in confusion: "That's not right, Purple Wind City shouldn't have had this family originally, and I remember Purple Wind City was clearly a vassal state of the empire..."
【you:"……"】
[You didn't say anything, but Huo Yang's "first life" memories were altered because of your involvement (Chapter 871). The past he's reborn into now is the normal one.]
Time flowed on until his chubby friend caused chaos and disappeared from this era. Faced with this cruel reality, Huo Yang, feeling powerless, resolved to abstain from lust and devoted himself to cultivation.
[During this time travel back in time, as another cycle of reincarnation was about to begin, Huo Yang did not want to be taken to the Mountain of Ghosts and Gods by the Time Priests. He believed that as long as he avoided that place, he could escape the cycle of reincarnation.]
However, he failed. The ancient gods still swept across the world, summoning the creatures that were the source of chaos, and the continent of God's Ashes was once again heading towards destruction.
Fortunately, Huo Yang returned to 19 years ago, entering a second cycle, and had another chance to start over.
Throughout this process, you followed him.
One cycle, two cycles, three cycles...
Huo Yang tried his best to stop the destiny that would unfold nineteen years later, but he couldn't.
He couldn't grow to the level of that ancient god in just 19 years.
[You can't help him while he's in a virtual state. No matter how much guidance you give, there's a limit to his growth rate.]
[It's like a Nokia phone manufactured 20 years ago; it simply can't run demanding games like Honor of Kings, Warcraft, or Starcraft because the device isn't compatible.]
[You even tried to transfer your power to him, and well… those damned ancient evil gods resurfaced once again.]
[After going through this cycle hundreds of times, you're starting to feel numb.]
However, things took a turn for the better. As the main body of the cycle of reincarnation, Huo Yang was gradually imbued with the power of time, accumulating a little bit of his previous power with each reincarnation.
