Chapter 1904: Past Events
Huo Yao lowered his eyelashes, turned his head, and said to Min Yu in an unusually calm voice: "I am very sober and know what I am doing."
Even if Sheng Ying's words cannot be taken seriously, he can indeed control people psychologically.
Min Yu looked at Huo Yao, his eyes felt a little sore, as if he saw again the Huo Yao when he first learned that Old Lady Yang had passed away.
The calmer you appear on your face, the sadder you are inside.
Min Yu sighed inwardly, knowing that he couldn't stop her, and in the end, he didn't say anything.
Soon, Huo Yao walked to the stone platform, spread out his palms, looked at the two pieces of jade, one black and one white, his expression darkened, and put the jades one by one into the round hole in the center of the mechanism platform.
The black and white jade instantly pieced together into a Tai Chi Yin-Yang diagram, which matched the patterns engraved on the surface of the stone platform very well. As soon as the two pieces of jade were put back in place, the patterns seemed to come alive, and with the ancient characters marking around the round hole, it looked like a movable code wheel.
At this time, Sheng Ying next to him took two steps forward and quickly turned the rotary disk with his fingers, and the ancient characters on it began to change positions constantly.
Huo Yao looked at him expressionlessly and did not reach out to stop his actions.
She can easily crack modern high-tech products, but she is not very proficient in this kind of ancient mechanism based on the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams and the Five Elements. However, it seems that the only person who can open this mechanism is her, her master.
Sure enough, not long after, Sheng Ying stopped after some deduction.
The next second, an ancient and heavy clicking sound was heard, and it seemed as if something was opened under the mechanism platform. The vibration from the entire secret room made it almost impossible to stand steadily, and even a twisted and pulling feeling was produced in the air, as if it was about to be torn apart.
Sheng Ying looked at the scene slowly changing in front of him, and it was almost impossible for him to remain calm.
No one knows how excited he was when he learned that the time-space reversal experiment was successful on his apprentice. This is simply a super bug in this world.
Only then did he truly understand why Shangguan Yi had been hiding in this place.
A man is innocent unless he is in possession of a treasure.
Compared to peerless medical skills, being able to travel between the future and the past and possessing future technology that is more advanced than this world would be more insane, because this kind of bug that breaks the balance is enough to bring about a catastrophic disaster.
So they were cowardly and hid in this place for hundreds of years, thinking that they could survive the world safely. However, this idea was ridiculous in Sheng Ying's view.
Only by standing at the top of the pyramid is he qualified to change the rules of this world, so he established the first base.
Huo Yao didn't care about the expression on Sheng Ying's face. Several elders were lying on the cold ground next to them. She pinched her fingers and then slowly loosened them.
The next moment, she raised her head and slashed her palm towards Sheng Ying's back. Her movements were quick and decisive, full of murderous intent.
Although Sheng Ying's attention was mostly on the opening of the mechanism, he also remained alert. A second before he felt the murderous aura coming, he slowly moved to the side.
"Why, do you want to kill Master?" Sheng Ying smiled softly, "As expected, people who have been reborn tend to forget their origins."
"You don't deserve it." Huo Yao looked coldly, flicked his sleeves, and the silver needle on his fingertips shot out with absolute force, without giving Sheng Ying any chance to react.
However, Sheng Ying seemed to be aware of Huo Yao's every move and easily avoided her attack again. "Don't forget that I taught you how to use your martial arts skills."
As she is the disciple he taught personally, how could he not be familiar with everything about her?
"Isn't that right?" Huo Yao said calmly, "Then you should also know the principle that a disciple is better than his teacher."
"You are indeed the most outstanding person I have ever taught, but you have a fatal weakness." Sheng Ying nodded and looked at Huo Yao, "You are too soft-hearted."
If he had just stood there and not dodged, his disciple might not have really killed him.
He knows her too well.
"There's nothing wrong with being soft-hearted. It's always better than being ruthless." Huo Yao said calmly.
"Naive." Sheng Ying sneered, then raised his hand and slapped the corner of the stone platform mechanism again.
I only felt the tearing sensation in the secret room suddenly become stronger and stronger, and the mechanism platform suddenly split in the middle, and a huge black hole slowly appeared from the bottom.
The black hole was bottomless and had a strong suction force. Huo Yao stood quite close to it and was almost uncontrollably pulled over by the force.
Min Yu's expression changed slightly, and he reached out to quickly grab her, but the suction was so strong that it took a while to pull her back from the edge.
"Are you okay?" Min Yu's voice was deep, and he held Huo Yao's hand tightly without letting go.
Huo Yao's hair was a little messy, but her face was not messy at all. She looked at Min Yu and shook her head, "I'm fine."
After saying that, his eyes fell on the black hole again.
It turns out that time and space channels really exist.
Huo Yao looked a little dazed.
At this time, Sheng Ying no longer had the time to care about Huo Yao, and he didn't seem to be afraid of the attraction of the black hole. He approached the hole with excitement, "Finally..."
In fact, what he didn't tell Huo Yao just now was that the time travel that was opened this time was not back to the past, but to the future.
Back then, he used the First Base to study his apprentice, but he didn't find any difference until the last moment of her life. Later, he had to bring her back to the tribe when she was only breathing her last.
Shangguan Tong finally handed the secret room to him.
Sure enough, when he brought his apprentice into the black hole, he went back to more than ten years ago and saw her living in the countryside with an old lady.
How old was his apprentice at that time?
In order to test the effect of time travel without disrupting the balance of the world, he gave acupuncture to Huo Yao, who was still a child at that time. After all, no one wants to leave a huge hidden danger for himself.
So after doing all this, he quietly sent Huo Yao, who was only breathing her last breath, back to the clan, and used medicine to erase her memory, until everything was pushed back to the original trajectory of fate.
More than a decade passed like a flash, and when Huo Yao experienced death on her original trajectory, she finally came back to life.
She was no longer Shangguan Yu, but Huo Yao who lived with the old lady in the countryside, and her memories were limited to what she experienced when she returned to Shangguan Yi's family.
This is time travel.
However, the only thing Sheng Ying didn't expect was that when he took her back to the past, he didn't know that she was the Lu family's mistaken child, and he didn't expect that she would later be related to the Huo family.
But these are no longer important. After all, the Huo family will soon disappear from this world.
Sheng Ying had already walked to the edge of the black hole. The strong suction made his face look slightly distorted, but there was more undisguised excitement in his eyes.
He quickly took off his coat, revealing a silver-white bodysuit underneath. The material was special and one could tell at a glance that it was not an ordinary piece of clothing.
Sheng Ying pinched his wrist and turned to look at Huo Yao. Now they were only one step away from completely stepping into the time and space channel.
Anything that goes against the will of heaven will require a price to be paid.
He had saved her life back then, and now it was time to repay him.
Sheng Ying twitched the corners of his lips slightly, without a trace of warmth in his eyes. He raised his hand and grabbed Huo Yao's shoulder with great speed and strength.
Huo Yao was not far away from him, her eyes were always on the direction of the black hole, as if she was trapped in some situation and couldn't get out. Seeing that Sheng Ying was about to touch her, Min Yu next to her quickly pulled her behind him, and with his other hand across his chest, he suddenly blocked Sheng Ying.
"You don't know what you can do." Sheng Ying sneered, and formed his five fingers into claws, and attacked Min Yu directly with a fierce move. However, Min Yu's reaction was not weak at all, and he easily avoided his fatal move.
Soon, the two started fighting.
When Huo Yao was pulled away by Min Yu, her wandering thoughts were pulled back and she had completely remembered the past.
What master, what resurrecting her, all of this was just a cover for Sheng Ying's research on time travel.
And from beginning to end, she was just a pawn he used to verify the success of the experiment.
Huo Yao smiled sarcastically, and the last bit of complicated emotion in her heart dissipated. She raised her head and looked at the two people fighting.
Min Yu's skills were not bad, in fact, he was very strong. After several rounds, a trace of blood had already flowed out of the corner of Sheng Ying's lips. He raised his hand and slowly wiped it off, with a cold look in his eyes. The next moment, he pressed his thumb on the nail of his index finger, and an extremely thin and short needle shot out.
The secret room was almost filled with the sound of whirlwind whistling up from the mouth of the black hole. Even if there were other subtle sounds mixed in, they would not be noticeable, let alone a tiny hidden weapon.
Min Yu indeed didn't notice it, but Huo Yao next to him saw the subtle movement of Sheng Ying's hand. Immediately, she pressed on Min Yu's shoulder with swift movements. It seemed that she didn't use much force, but she had pushed him away slightly. At the same time, she crossed her leg and kicked Sheng Ying hard on the knee.
Severe pain came over him, and Sheng Ying uncontrollably knelt on one knee on the floor with a loud thud. The direction he was kneeling happened to be the direction of the bodies of Shangguan Wei and several elders.
Sheng Ying's face looked extremely ugly and he was unable to stand up for a while.
"Do you really want power and eternal life?" Huo Yao walked up to Sheng Ying and looked down at him without a trace of warmth in his eyes. "It's a pity that you will never have this opportunity."
After she finished speaking, she raised her hand expressionlessly, and what was clearly in her fingertips was a pistol, which Huo Yao had just quietly taken from Min Yu.
Sheng Ying's pupils shrank. He had no time to dodge as the bullet pierced his chest. Blood immediately gushed out from his heart, staining his white clothes red.
At this moment, Sheng Ying could clearly feel his life fading away.
His disciple is really a good one!
Sheng Ying's expression darkened. He then pressed the wound with one hand and suddenly rolled over, heading towards the black hole of time and space travel.
