Those Classmates who Suddenly Disappeared-Chapter 1784: It’s All Over
Chapter 1784: Chapter 1784: It’s All Over
The crowd finally understood the entire plan of the demon king, and though they felt that the demon king was truly helpless in doing so, deep inside they still couldn’t accept it, given that so much had happened before.
Gu Fan asked lightly, "Sacrificing Lin Xi, did you ever ask Lin Xi?"
The demon king still shook his head, "I’m really sorry, I never asked Lin Xi, nor did I ever tell Lin Xi why she had to sacrifice, I don’t know how much regret Lin Xi carried with her."
Lin Yue was furious, "Is this how you treat my sister, are you so sure my sister would be willing to sacrifice for you?"
"If I told your sister my reasons for doing this, she would definitely agree," the demon king said with a hint of sadness in his voice, but Lin Yue was not buying it and loudly questioned, "What makes you say that."
It was Gu Fan’s turn to speak, he said seriously, "Because I understand Lin Xi better than you, because the ones being saved are everyone, including you, her younger brother, and her parents, so once Lin Xi understands, she will definitely agree."
Hearing this, Lin Yue’s heart sank, unable to utter any words of reproach, tears flowed uncontrollably, and he said softly, "Fools, you are all fools."
Gu Ling quickly tried to comfort him but was met with a warning look from Gu Fan.
Initially, Gu Ling was quite afraid, but then she firmly held onto Lin Yue’s arm, "Brother, this is my choice."
Gu Fan was taken aback, then sighed, and the demon king also chuckled, and the two surprisingly said in unison, "Girls cannot be kept, I believe this is also what Lin Xi would want to see."
At this point, Lu Yi interrupted, "Sorry, you two, if I understand correctly, the situation on the demon king’s side is resolved, but Gu Fan’s situation isn’t resolved. Gu Fan, after returning, step by step becomes the demon king, and the same things still have to repeat."
"No more!" said the demon king very firmly, and then he added, "If it were just simple repetition, there would be no need to do so much, everything I do is to change the course of the future."
"What do you mean?" Everyone collectively couldn’t understand, looking at the demon king with faces full of question marks.
The demon king began to explain, "Back then, I saw the mysterious masked man kill Lin Xi, I was very angry, I ran to the future to duel the mysterious masked man, and then I discovered the truth, it was shocking, afterward, the mysterious masked man reminded me that since I knew what would happen, I should change things that are going to happen, thus gradually changing the development trend of the future."
Gu Fan was the first to understand, "So, before you, there were countless versions of me defying the time loop, constantly seeking ways to change the future trend."
Lu Yi chimed in, "But Gu Xiaojin said that things destined to happen are difficult to change."
Gu Fan replied, "Precisely because it’s difficult, countless versions of me keep traveling through time, making little changes, and these changes gradually and completely overturn the future. In other words, after I become the demon king, I will find ways to make more changes to create opportunities for the past me."
Oh my, this is so complicated? Everyone felt like this was an endless loop, trapping Gu Fan in a time loop. To put it simply, countless versions of Gu Fan cross through time, seeking ways to break the Destiny Stone, passing experiences and insights to the next version, allowing the next to do better until successful.
The demon king shook his head, "No, maybe the loop is broken this time."
"What happened?" Everyone was astonished, feeling hopeful.
The demon king nodded with a delighted smile, "You finally understood the message I was conveying."
Gu Fan also smiled, "You traveled to ancient times and snatched Lu Bei’s Stone of Prophecy right in front of me, as a reminder for me. You thought of a way to break the loop, which is to use the Stone of Prophecy against the Destiny Stone."
Jie couldn’t understand, "Back then, the mysterious masked man only snatched it but didn’t give any clear instructions, how did you guess it."
Gu Fan explained once more, "Remember, after we came out from the forbidden zone in Dark Primitive Mountain, someone was instructed by the mysterious masked man to snatch the blue potion I was safeguarding."
Everyone nodded, indicating they knew about it, but what did it signify?
This time it was the demon king’s turn to speak, "Drinking the blue potion benefits me, so why did I stop it?"
"Yeah, past events cannot be easily changed. The Stone of Prophecy certainly wouldn’t be taken by you, so why would you still take it. That was a reminder to me, you wouldn’t do something pointless, there must be a special reason for you to snatch the Stone of Prophecy." Gu Fan looked steadily at the demon king, at this moment the two versions of Gu Fan from different timelines understood each other and exchanged a smile.
Gu Fan added, "Besides, when Gu Xiaojin first saw me, she mentioned that occurring events are destined and cannot be changed, but perhaps you could use Lu Yi’s doomsayer mouth to create some small twists in the events, which might affect the future."
Everyone understood this, Gu Fan combined all these pieces together, adding that after he came to this era, he noticed strange movements from the demon king, even secretly aiding, which forced Gu Fan to rethink the demon king’s actions.
Lu Yi pondered for a while and finally snapped back, looking puzzled, "But my doomsayer mouth didn’t seem to have much impact."
"No, because of you, the Destiny Stones controlling both of us don’t just cancel each other out, but rather annihilate each other. In other words, after I return to the past, I’m no longer governed by the Destiny Stone; I won’t help Ao Sai, I won’t be part of welcoming the return of the ancient Super Civilization, and I’ll start a new life." After saying this, Gu Fan smiled with appreciation in his eyes, "Old friend, even though you always predict the worst, knowing you makes me really happy."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yi felt warmth in her heart, a surge of boldness rising.
Jie asked, "But why wouldn’t the mysterious masked man directly remind you? Why be so elusive?"
"Because Ao Sai’s informant has been watching me, this informant always appears at crucial moments when we need him." The demon king’s simple statement led everyone to think of one person, and their eyes turned to Ouyang Jin.
Ouyang Jin whistled with a very inexplicable expression, but at the same time, he also sensed the hostility from everyone.
"Can you blame me? If you had agreed to my price increase back then, I wouldn’t have been so easily bought by the enemy, and now it’s like this, is it my fault? Fine, I’ll go back and reflect," Ouyang Jin wanted to leave, but Lu Yi was already upon him, and the two wrestled together.
