Chapter 137



Lin Yuan, Ye Xiao has been sitting here for a long time.

After returning from that illusory scene, he came here. The entire forest garden was quiet. Apart from the sound of wind blowing through leaves, a few birds singing, a few cries of mutant beasts, and the sound of flowing water, there was almost no other sound.

Ye Xiao sat under a big tree where water was dripping, and had been thinking for a long time.

He went over in his mind again and again what the teacher had said.

It is known that Tan's way to survive is to let her soul merge with her original body. The past cannot be changed, and the only chance is to get her body back during the time when she was taken away by those government officials.

So the question is, where is her soul? If it's still in this world, and her soul and body are in two different worlds, should we bring her body to this world, or take her soul to the other world?

Let’s ignore how to lead this process for now. Which world will be more beneficial for her to stay in in the future?

"Squeak!" Something pulled at his trouser leg. Ye Xiao looked down and saw a small, light brown hamster grabbing his trouser leg with its tiny claws. He paused for two seconds, then bent down to pick up the little creature, rubbing it in his palm and whispering, "Little thing, do you know where your owner is?"

The little hamster looked at him with its misty black eyes.

Ye Xiao certainly didn't hold out hope for it. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Give me a notebook and a pen."

The little hamster tilted its head and looked at him for a while, then opened its mouth and spit out a pink notebook and a pen.

On the cover of the notebook is a little bear holding a bunch of balloons. The little bear is cute and the balloons are colorful. The whole picture is full of childishness. It is the style that Tan Tan likes. She said she wanted to use this notebook to learn painting, and later gave it to Wei Jie, but he took it back.

I opened the cover and sure enough there was nothing inside, it was all blank.

I knew that what she said about wanting to learn painting was fake.

Ye Xiao smiled slightly and unscrewed the pen. If Tantan's world is called World A, his world is called World B. The timeline of World A is three hundred years later. The rules of the world there have been formed and it does not accept variables. Therefore, Tantan was excluded, and her supernatural powers collapsed and her body became weak for no reason. Before her soul completely dissipated, her teacher took her to World B.

The timeline of World B is three hundred years ago, at the beginning of the end of the world. At this time, the old rules no longer exist, and new rules have been born, but have not yet been finalized, so World B accepts variables.

However, Tantan is not only a variable to it, but also an outsider. The teacher said that the rules of the world do not fully recognize Tantan, and did not use words such as "exclusion" and "erasure" like the rules of world A.

Including the incident with Tan Tan, it was mainly because he was not protected by the world rules and was weak, so he was defeated by Jin Liangyu. The world rules did not take any initiative to do anything.

Therefore, the rules of world B should mean neither protecting nor rejecting Tan Tan, but watching from the sidelines.

Ye Xiao's thoughts became clearer and clearer, and he circled the letter B between the two words A and B on the paper.

Then he wrote the four words "world rules".

What are world rules? Before they're finalized, they're constantly being refined. According to the teacher, World A's evolution isn't complete, so its rules can only maintain a level that matches it. If World B eventually evolves fully, its rules should also be able to rise to a higher level.

He suddenly looked up, peering through the gaps in the leaves at the sky. There was nothing but azure blue and drifting clouds. He searched for something, then spoke slowly, "Do you have your own thoughts and aspirations? If I help you become a higher-level world rule, can you give me something in return?"

The sky did not respond, but a green leaf swayed from the branch and fell down.

Ye Xiao reached out and pinched it.

He turned the leaf stalk and looked at the veins on the green leaves.

The teacher's words revealed that the fundamental reason for the incomplete evolution of World A was probably that neither humans nor other creatures were able to evolve completely and reach a new level. As a result, World A was in an awkward state, and the laws of the world also hung there awkwardly.

This means that in this world B, as long as there is one person who can evolve completely in the end, he or she can lead the entire world into a new level.

"...The more superpowers one has, the stronger they are, and the closer they are to their limits. This is especially true for those with five superpowers. When all five superpowers reach their maximum level, their bodies will undergo a qualitative change, surpassing the standards of this world..."

Ye Xiao stroked the leaves with his fingers, savoring these words in his mind.

Is it the maximum level?

He is not a five-element superpower user, he only has one superpower, but when this superpower reaches the maximum level and exceeds the limit, will it also lead to some changes?

Just imagine that when World B and its rules are stronger than World A, it would be more advantageous for him from World B to do something in World A. After all, if he takes Tan Tan's body away, he would probably have to fight against the entire rules of World A.

Ye Xiao gradually found his direction. Thousands of words can be summed up in one sentence: become stronger.

Only by becoming stronger can there be unlimited possibilities. The teacher said that he is in the best era, which probably means that the ceiling of this era has not yet been determined. How high you can reach depends on how hard you work.

Ye Xiao quickly wrote on the paper that before the rules of World B were finalized, he would try his best to climb up, find out the threshold and method to go to World A, snatch the person back, and then find her to talk and let her soul and body merge.

Now that I have sorted out my thoughts, there is only one last question left: where exactly is the talk?

Is she okay? He definitely can't do those things in a short time. Can she wait?

Ye Xiao's brows slowly frowned again.

Behind him, an old man floated there, stroking his gray hair and nodding as he looked at the tree beside him. As he looked, he said to the tree beside him, "You have a really good eye. This kid has good ability and a good brain. Maybe he can really succeed."

The tree didn't seem to hear him and didn't respond at all. The old man sighed and stroked the trunk with his dry hands: "I don't know how long you will sleep like this. I'm leaving soon. How can I feel at ease if I don't see you wake up before I leave?"

Ye Xiao suddenly stopped writing and turned to look at the big tree behind him.

The old man was startled, thinking he had discovered something. Ye Xiao looked around but found nothing, but he felt he was being watched. His eyes fell on the tree and stared at it for a long time, thinking: "If a tree becomes a spirit, is it also considered a complete evolution?"

He didn't know whether the young tree in front of him had become a spirit, but he suddenly remembered what Tan Tan had told her: there was a very huge tree in the mountains that could speak.

He thought that he should go see the big tree, and he did it immediately after he thought of it. He closed the notebook and got up and left.

When the old man saw him leave, he jumped up again and said, "You've studied with those half-baked Taoists for so long, not only can they not see me, but they can't even sense me at all!" He took back what he had just said. This kid wasn't that smart.

He turned around and was immediately heartbroken. There was a blurry and thin shadow in the trunk of the tree. It was sleeping soundly a moment ago, but now it was squatting, holding its cheeks with its hands, staring blankly at the boy walking away.

The old man patted her and said, "Girl."

The shadow ignored him completely, with a confused look on its face. When it couldn't see anyone, it lowered its head, changed its posture, and continued to curl itself up, as if it hadn't slept for thousands of years and was about to go back to sleep.

The old man was very angry. The other person didn't say a word, but she got up and looked at him. He called her many times, but she just couldn't hear him.

However, no matter how angry he was, he still felt sorry for his student. He thought about it, rubbed his hands together, and rubbed out a ball of light. He looked at it reluctantly for a long time, pulled out half of the ball of light, and was satisfied now, so he put the remaining half into the tree trunk.

Lin Tantan felt like he was a big tree growing by a lake. It was very quiet here, with animals of all sizes running around from time to time. But for some reason, these animals didn't seem very happy.

Occasionally, a tall man would come over and stand by the lake for the whole night, or sit under her tree canopy for the whole night.

She felt that she knew this man, but she couldn't remember where he was. It was as if a piece of her brain was missing. She didn't even know when she was born. Just because she woke up in a tree, she felt that she should be a tree. As for why she had a name, she had forgotten. Maybe it was given to her by the person who planted her.

She thought it was this man who had planted her, but he never spoke to her. He was always silent, as if he was unhappy. When he came under the tree and she was awake, she couldn't help but do something to attract his attention. However, she seemed to have just regained consciousness and was not very good at controlling her body, so at most she could only drop a few leaves.

Sometimes leaves landed on her shoulders, head, and face, and she felt a little happy. But more often, the leaves fell to the ground, and she had no choice but to continue shedding them. Because the leaves on her body were all very healthy, each one seemed reluctant to leave the branch, so this action was very strenuous for her, and she always felt very tired, as if she could not wake up.

He came again that day, and seemed to be thinking about something, writing and drawing on the paper. Finally he looked up at her, and she immediately dropped a leaf. Fortunately, he caught the leaf. She felt very happy, but soon he let go of the leaf and continued writing and drawing.

Oh, humans are so annoying. Why do they have so many things to think about? Can't they stop and play with her?

She fell asleep unknowingly, and suddenly realized that he was about to leave. She woke up immediately and only saw his back.

Hmm...

Why did you leave so early today?

She looks a little lost and a little obsessed, and her back looks so beautiful.

There was an old man talking next to her, but she couldn't hear him clearly. She felt sleepy again, yawned, closed her eyes and wanted to sleep, but suddenly something was put into her mind.

The scene suddenly changed, and she felt like she was stuffed into a new body. Her whole body ached as if it was about to break. Her tears suddenly welled up in her eyes. Who, who was so hateful to put her in such a body!

She opened her eyes and looked around. Her hands and feet were so small. She suddenly looked so small! She was clearly a tall and strong tree!

She wanted to cry even more!

"Tan Tan, be good, don't cry. Do you want some candy?" A gentle voice came over. She opened her tearful eyes and saw a young woman.

She froze, her body calling out before her consciousness: "Mom."

The woman in front of me is gentle and beautiful. She looks less than 30 years old. However, due to years of worry, the corners of her eyes are stained with traces of time, making her look several years older than her actual age.

Mother Lin responded with a smile and patted her head: "Baby, do you want orange flavor or cola flavor?"

"Don't give your child too much sugar. It's bad for their teeth." A man's voice rang out, and then a man with a smile on his face walked over from the doorway, bent down and picked up Lin Tantan. "Daddy's little darling, have you been good and listened to Mommy at home today?"

Being held in the man's arms, Lin Tantan opened her eyes wide, feeling that this scene was so familiar, as if she had experienced it before, but she could not remember it at all.

She clung to the man's shoulders, leaning back with her small body, staring at him with her round eyes. He wasn't very handsome, but he could definitely be described as well-mannered and gentle. The man smiled and tapped her nose: "How come you don't recognize your dad after just one day of not seeing him?"

She murmured, "Dad."

"Why!"
