Chapter 65
Wen Yuxiao, who had finally dealt with the little monster, leaned on a branch and looked sadly at the starship that had fallen below and had rotted into a pile of scrap metal. The little monster noticed her difficulty and was trying to use the branch to patch up the holes that it had poked earlier.
If it doesn't work, don't go back...
Such a thought flashed through the little monster's mind, but his hands had already put it into action. The countless tentacles that he spread out shook inadvertently. Under the irresistible force, the starship made a loud rumbling sound like a wail. Under the shocked gaze of the three people above, it snapped in the middle and broke into two pieces, completely cutting off the hope of repair.
Like a child who broke a toy, the branch, knowing it had made a mistake, raised its head pitifully and pointed its finger in front of Wen Yuxiao: "I... am not very good at... fixing things."
Indeed, the little monster's specialty was swallowing everything in one gulp. It was better to hope that Yun Yuxi, who looked like a lost child beside him, could suddenly awaken, attain enlightenment, and whisk them out of the Black Domain. Wen Yuxiao's hopes were low, but now, with no other options available and no way to contact the outside world, he asked the distracted god sitting on the ground to move aside, making room for him to join him in his despair.
"What should I do?" This is Wen Yuxiao's sigh.
"Yeah, what should we do?" After going through so much, she no longer had the energy to struggle. The incarnation of God that came down from Yanba echoed her words like a repeater.
"What should I do?" The cat-eared beastman who called himself Tafei was helpless. He was already helpless. If money was useful in the Black Territory, he could build a pure golden road all the way from them to the entrance. Unfortunately, the little monster only recognized its mother, so he had money but nowhere to spend it. He had no choice but to join the sisters in their repeating group.
"What should I do?" The fourth voice suddenly sounded. At first, Wen Yuxiao thought it was a little monster that joined in for fun. After all, the little monster would respond to whatever she did. Then she quickly realized that it was an unfamiliar female voice, vaguely with a strange sense of familiarity.
"Woooaaaaaaaaaa!" The orc who reacted the fastest among the three jumped three feet high, like a kitten suddenly seeing a cucumber, and gave them a live demonstration of the excellent jumping ability of cats. He jumped behind them, or to be precise, behind Wen Yuxiao.
Yun Yuxi was a smart guy. Perhaps he had lost too much when he was arrogant before, so he learned to avoid danger and seek good fortune. He quickly got up and moved behind his sister, and asked Tafei, who had arrived earlier, to make room for him.
Only one person was two beats slow to react, and Wen Yuxiao, already considered a safe haven for others, faced him with a rather speechless expression. This person had indeed appeared suddenly, without the slightest sign or process, walking up to them easily and naturally and joining in the conversation.
She was stunned, but the little monster was not. The branches wrapped around her at a speed that was inconsistent with its impression of being slow, blocking her way like a thick shield. The red moon in the sky was full and round, and its cold eyes shone on the newcomer, adding an inexplicable sense of terror to the other party.
Unexpectedly, the person who came was... a ball of white light?
A warm and soft white light floated quietly in the air. A red light, seemingly coming from the sky, made her feel that her image was damaged. Surrounding her, a dreamlike, thin, light-colored ribbon-like object flipped up and down. A calm and composed voice echoed in this small space: "Don't be so fierce, little kid. You'll become unlovable."
As the last word fell, the scarlet eyes seemed to have been severely damaged, affected by an irresistible force. After a long period of twisted resistance, they were reluctantly forced to close. Even the restless little eyeballs on the branches became depressed.
For a moment, the entire space was filled with only the white ball, emitting a hazy, misty light. The ball slowly approached, and as it passed by, the branches retreated back to their original positions, like a movie rewinding, without missing a beat.
This ball looked incredibly familiar, and the opponent didn't seem to have any ill intentions. Moreover, seeing this white ball gave him an inexplicable sense of security, as if he had gained confidence. Thinking about this, Wen Yuxiao couldn't help but pull out Yun Yuxi, who was hiding behind him.
Unexpectedly, Yun Yuxi was fine when she didn't look. As soon as she saw the other person, she was like a mouse seeing a cat. She subconsciously let out a "huh" and struggled to run back using her hands and feet, but was held tightly by Wen Yuxiao, preventing her from escaping.
"Xiao Xi," Bai Qiu said in a very gentle and kind voice, "Are you unhappy to see your sister?"
Yun Yuxi fell silent, realizing there was no way he could escape this calamity. He walked forward with his neck hunched, his voice trembling slightly as he spoke, "No, no, I'm... very happy."
As she spoke, she showed a smile that was uglier than crying.
Wen Yuxiao glanced at the dejected god with some sympathy. She noticed the white ball approaching her. The ribbon, like the latter's hand, touched her head and gently stroked it. "Long time no see, Xiao Wen. Have you gained any new insights?"
Wen Yuxiao, who had already realized the identity of this person, fell silent. This was their eldest sister who came and went without a trace, traveled freely in the long river of time, and could go anywhere regardless of space. The most important thing was that she could suppress the god who held the power of creation over there, and she showed no mercy when throwing people into the small dark room.
Now, when she asked herself what she had learned… her eyes drifted. She couldn't possibly say that her ability to balance matters had been honed to perfection, that she could evade the Shura field with her cunning movements! These didn't sound serious at first. Could she really tell this to her elders?
But Wen Yuxiao easily accepted this familiarity from her sister, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, and who didn't even exist in her memory. A feeling of grievance rose in her heart, and she complained: "That Yun Yuxi guy always messes with me."
Yun Yuxi, who had been pretending to be a statue to minimize her presence, froze when she heard her name being called. Seeing the white light ball's ribbon already in front of her, it was no use lowering her head. By the time her sister looked at her, everything she had done had already been revealed by time. She pinched her thigh hard, with a tearful expression, trying to gain some sympathy, and looked up.
Click.
The white ribbon hit her lightly, destroying her fake expression. "We used this method last time, sister."
Yun Yuxi felt that she was hopeless. Why did everyone like to hit her on the head? She was not smart to begin with, and if they kept hitting her, she would really become a fool!
"Let Xiao Wen decide how to punish you," the light ball said, "after all, it was you who disturbed her."
Hearing his own name, Wen Yuxiao came over and rolled his eyes. The little monster and Tafei didn't react at all because their expressions were frozen. The former was better, at least he saw the god of time, but the latter would not move after jumping. The fear and terror on his face were clearly visible, even making people look at him carefully.
A brilliant idea suddenly struck her. Although Yun Yuxi had been a bit treacherous and acted recklessly, he hadn't really done anything excessive, so she was prepared to let him off the hook. "Then let's sign a contract. Yun Yuxi will work for me for 100,000 years, and I won't pursue the matter further."
Yun Yuxi, who was about to sign a 100,000-year indenture, looked at Wen Yuxiao in disbelief. "You can't just say that just because I have no sense of time. 100,000 years... in two years, when you awaken your godhood and return to the divine throne, you won't need me anymore. Don't be like this, Xiao Wen, my dearest sister!"
Finally, after bargaining, one hundred thousand years became ten thousand years. After experiencing the baptism of one hundred thousand, Yun Yuxi suddenly felt that ten thousand was not unacceptable and breathed a sigh of relief. When the contract was officially signed under the witness of the white ball of light, she suddenly realized that she had been pua?
After putting the contract away, the light ball asked, "Okay, Xiaoxi, tell me what trouble you are in this time."
Yun Yuxi, still wondering if he had been tricked, was in a trance and replied casually, "We can't get out. We're trapped here."
Wen Yuxiao added, "I want to take the little monster out with me."
The white ball of light swayed left and right twice, as if it was thinking, and looked around at the branches and eyes that almost filled the entire star field. After a while, it said, "Okay."
Yun Yuxi didn't expect that just by mentioning it, the voice would travel through the vast time and space and really reach her elder sister's ears. Although she knew that she and Wen Yuxiao were her anchor points, in this long river of time, no matter whether she went to the past or the future, she could always find the present where they were.
Even though the light ball said it had been a long time since we last met, it was possible that she had just seen them some time ago. The three sisters did not rely on telepathy to meet each other on a daily basis, but purely on fate. In the words of the eldest sister, they would meet naturally when the time came.
So Yun Yuxi really didn't expect that this unintentional call would really bring someone here. Hmm... It seems that I have to delete the word "sister" from my mind next time.
Wen Yuxiao blinked his eyes, and the branches that covered the sky and were everywhere in front of him disappeared in an instant. He did not step on empty air because a white cloud supported them.
She was sure that she was not distracted, nor did she feel any signs of the time slowly flowing through her body being deleted. After her divine power was restored and replenished, her perception became much sharper. Although she didn't know when she would be able to transform into a ball of light like the other two, it was still a great improvement.
With a quick glance, he found a furry black ball about the size of a basketball not far away. The crack in the middle was probably its eye, but it was tightly closed at this moment. Looking closely, he found that it was not hair on its body, but branches that had been shrunk countless times.
