More than a year ago.
After communicating with Xia Yixin.
Less than half a day's journey from the Dawn Base, Lu Yan chased after a figure by following a mechanical crow.
Although he had anticipated that a third party would secretly intervene, Lu Yan's pupils still contracted when he actually saw that person.
She was very ordinary-looking, at best pretty, but he recognized her face.
Lu Yan had seen Xia Yixin's memories before, and the woman in front of her looked exactly like her before she entered the system.
It's just healthier and more energetic.
Most importantly, he could sense that the woman was not imitating or possessing any special abilities, and her mental strength was exactly the same as Xia Yixin's.
This made Lu Yan feel a strong sense of threat. As he summoned his golden spiritual power, a killing intent ignited in his eyes. "Who are you?"
To his surprise, the woman laughed. She jumped down from the roof and looked him in the eye. "Don't you recognize me? I'm Xia Yixin."
"Impossible." Lu Yan still noticed the subtle differences between the two. She didn't have a black jade ring or a storage ring, but her appearance and spiritual energy seemed to be...
Suddenly, a thought struck him: "You are her alter ego."
“That’s right.” The woman readily admitted her identity.
The atmosphere between the two did not ease as a result.
Because Lu Yan knew that Xia Yixin didn't need to create a clone at this time; her mission wasn't finished yet, and it wasn't time for her to leave.
He didn't withdraw his golden spiritual power, coldly staring at the "clone" and asking, "What exactly do you want to do?"
“I have no hostility toward you. I inherited some of my master’s memories. I am not from this plane, at least not in this timeline. I come from a parallel plane. My only purpose is to avoid catastrophic consequences.”
Lu Yan could tell that the other party was not lying. Her words gave him a vague sense of foreboding. He withdrew his golden spiritual power and waited for her to continue.
Subsequently, the clone Xia Ye did indeed tell him about a "future of a parallel world" and revealed a situation that was quite mind-blowing to him. Even the calm Lu Yan frowned slightly.
He looked at her thoughtfully. "Your understanding is that everything here, not just the planes, but also the main god, the main system, and even me, was created by her."
“That’s right. In other words, she is actually the one who designed the main system. All the systems were designed by her. So the program started from the moment she entered this system. Except for you, everything is proceeding according to the program. This plane is the last plane. There will inevitably be an event that guides her out, back to the real world, and complete the full story system,” the clone Xia explained.
Lu Yan was not entirely convinced by the other party. Although the clone could not possibly betray its original owner, what she said might not be the truth. After all, Lu Yan had traveled through countless planes and had an understanding of the entire system.
However, the main system did say something like, "The program started the moment she entered the system."
"You came to me just to tell this story?"
Xia, the clone, could tell he didn't completely believe her. She shook her head. "In my world's timeline, in this parallel world, although the master sensed something was wrong with the plane, she still chose to gather the nine 'otherworldly objects' with you and leave the system. But the consequence was your death and her becoming a vegetable. So, as the one left in this last plane, I must tell you the truth. And..."
Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly made her move.
The fifth-order mental power suddenly attacked when Lu Yan was vulnerable. The moment Lu Yan fell to the ground, he heard the cold voice of his clone, Xia Chenleng.
"We've tried many times. I'm sorry, but the only way to reduce the impact on her is to make you lose your memory. This is the only way to achieve the best of both worlds. I believe you will make the right choice once you regain your senses."
...
Having fully regained his memories, Lu Yan now fully understands why his world has reverted to its original state: Xia Yixin has left and returned to the "real world" mentioned by her clone Xia. Therefore, the main system restarted the entire world story.
Was he ultimately too late?
Could it really be as Xia, the clone, said, that this is the solution that satisfies both sides?
At that moment, the surrounding space distorted, and a figure in white smoke appeared in front of him—it was the main system.
"This is the best way, Lu Yan. I've said before that the program started running the moment she entered the system. Although she will retain her memories when she leaves, she will no longer be the same person she was. So, Lu Yan, give up." The mechanical voice was devoid of emotion.
In the main space, Lu Yan, standing in a white world, has returned to his original appearance. The handsome man lowers his eyes, and the main system cannot tell what he is thinking.
Just as the main system was about to say something, Lu Yan suddenly raised his eyes and looked at the main system with a cold smile. "Actually, if you hadn't come out, I might not have thought of this. She was talking about making a choice, not giving me a result. What are you jumping out now to make me give up?"
The smoke in the main system's human form receded slightly; it wanted to escape!
In an instant, surging golden spiritual power spread throughout the main space. The main system's vision blurred, and he was already being grabbed by the neck and pinned to the ground by the person opposite him. A chilling atmosphere filled the air.
Although the main system does not have its own physical form, Lu Yan can compress it again and again with his spiritual power.
Inside the golden cage, the main system continued to struggle, trying to convince him, "You can't kill me, Lu Yan. She's already gone. Everything you do will be in vain!"
