The General's Darling Is Delicate-Chapter 423 - 286: There Is an Even More Terrifying Presence by His Side
Shen Ruosui stared unblinkingly at the Little Princess in front of him, a trace of suspicion in his eyes.
"First, tell me, how do you know about reincarnation? Who told you? Ying Ce?" Shen Ruosui tentatively mentioned this name.
"It was you who told me. Not only do I know, but I’ve also seen it. On that computer in the Storage Ring Space, you told me everything."
Shen Ruosui’s breath hitched, his pupils widened even more, "Didn’t you just arrive? Have you seen Mumu? That shouldn’t be..."
She lowered her gaze, looking at the Little Princess’s white and soft little hands resting on the table. Although they looked as beautiful as jade, both hands were bare, with nothing on them.
Seeing the Little Princess’s right index finger was also clean, Shen Ruosui was shocked, "What’s going on? Where’s the Golden Finger I arranged?"
Hmm?
The Grandmaster arranged a Golden Finger for her again?
Yun Chunnuan was somewhat surprised.
She suddenly thought of a possibility, "Grandmaster, in the time and space where I am now, how many lifetimes have I experienced in your opinion?"
"The fourth life." Shen Ruosui subconsciously replied.
After speaking, he realized he spoke too much and slapped his lips hard.
Yun Chunnuan was so shocked she couldn’t utter a word.
The fourth life?
How could it be the fourth life?
Didn’t that lunatic Ying Ce say it was the last chance?
"Ah! I know!" Yun Chunnuan slapped the table, suddenly saying, "There was no destruction! That world must still exist!"
For that lunatic and her, it is the fifth life, but in the Grandmaster’s view, she in the fourth life has not yet died, so there is no memory of the fourth life stored in her memory.
Or perhaps the world she is in now has always been an illusion, merely a copy of the parallel space of the fourth life.
Shen Ruosui was dumbfounded by her words, "Explain it clearly, cut the clouds and fog, what exactly happened? That lunatic found you so early?"
It shouldn’t be. He would rather the Little Princess never remember.
Why would he tell her what happened in the previous lives?
He repeatedly harmed her husband, children, and tore apart her happy family; the Little Princess didn’t have time to hate him...
Ying Ce is just crazy and naive, why would he tell her?
"No! Grandmaster, this is probably just a parallel time-space of the fourth life, because I came from the fourth life..."
Yun Chunnuan explained to Shen Ruosui everything that happened in the fourth life, from her crossing over to returning to the present to see her father and inexplicably being brought here by him.
After hearing this, Shen Ruosui found it simply unbelievable, "It can’t be a copied parallel space— even if everything can be copied, they can’t copy me.
If what you said is true, then we might already be in the fifth life."
"Grandmaster! If you don’t have memories of the fourth life, is it because that world hasn’t been destroyed and you’re still alive and well, so that would..."
Thinking of this possibility made Yun Chunnuan’s heart race.
This was the outcome she hoped for most; as long as that world still existed, she had hope of going back!
Shen Ruosui noticed the Little Princess blushing with excitement, lowering her eyes to gaze at her jade-like little hands, tensely clutching her own hand, unable to stop herself from trembling.
She nodded slightly, "Your speculation is correct. Apart from entering the main world, no time-space can replicate me along with it.
If you say you came from the fourth life, then the only possibility is that world still exists."
"Can I go back? Grandmaster, do you have a way to send me back?"
Yun Chunnuan quickly removed the hairpin from her bun, twisted it open, and poured the small pill into her palm, "This is the pill that lunatic forced me to take. I was afraid of swallowing it by accident so I hid it, never expecting to bring it straight into the real world.
Grandmaster, I have a way to bring eternal peace to this world, where everything need not reincarnate anymore."
Shen Ruosui’s gaze fell on that pill, "Little Nuannuan, if he could bring you here from the fourth life, it means there is a more terrifying presence around him that needs resolving—it’s not just as simple as dealing with him alone."
Considering this possibility, Shen Ruosui sighed heavily, unable to stop his hand from resting on his forehead, "What a sin, what rotten luck do I have; if this world ends, it might completely be destroyed, right?"
Yun Chunnuan hadn’t considered this possibility.
Her initial plan was to see the Grandmaster first and confirm whether her original world still existed.
Whether it remained or not, she was determined to make the lunatic take the pill, no matter what.
Whether returning or staying, she never wanted to see him again in her lifetime!
"Grandmaster." Yun Chunnuan held Shen Ruosui’s hand, as if encouraging herself and granting her courage, "There’s still the fourth life. If this life collapses, and there’s another time-space, it wouldn’t count as destruction, right?"
Shen Ruosui’s pupils brightened, "Oh right! How did I forget about that? But wait, whether or not it exists is just my guess, give me some time. Once I’m certain that time-space still exists, whatever you plan to do, I’ll accompany you."
As for her own existence in this world in the future, Shen Ruosui wasn’t very concerned.
Her sole goal was to complete the task and prevent this world from collapsing again.
If all five reincarnations collapsed, then she would perish along with it.
Too terrifying...
The main issue is that lunatic, so damn scheming!
He must also have known of her existence and purposely made her think this was the fourth life. If, unfortunately, it collapsed, she’d still be waiting for the next reincarnation to begin, without a final hope left.
She’d collapse, wouldn’t she?
That lunatic would be thrilled!
Damn it!
Who’s the manipulator behind him?
Shen Ruosui originally thought the world was set up this way, without considering other possibilities.
Thinking about it now, many things didn’t make sense.
Who could it be?
The people around him need to be checked one by one, but the urgent task now is to first confirm whether the fourth life still exists.
The method to confirm is actually quite simple; Shen Ruosui linked all time-spaces on the main system and then set a tracking location for herself.
The results displayed on the system filled her with joy and fear.
The joyous part was, according to the main system location results, there were indeed two of her coexisting.
Which means, the fourth life truly hasn’t collapsed!
The terrifying part was, there might be someone from the Space-Time Bureau by Ying Ce’s side more advanced than she was.
Capable of controlling reincarnations, pulling the Little Princess from the fourth life into the fifth, even trying to brainwash her.
Shen Ruosui couldn’t understand one thing, though—since they came to the fifth life, why not simply destroy the fourth life?
