Protagonist:

Xuan Ge

A few days later, inside Xuan Ge's bedchamber aboard the Shen Wu Xian Zhou, the atmosphere was somewhat delicate.

Jing Liu, Ling Sha, and Liu Ying — the three wore different expressions, yet all carried a hint of displeasure, their gazes landing on Xing Xiao in perfect unison.

Ling Sha spoke first: "Xing Xiao, you've played big enough this time — even the Harmony Family's head household has shown up at our door."

The Harmony Family head dispatched an emissary bearing lavish gifts to the Shen Wu Xian Zhou, insisting on seeing the General.

But as luck would have it, Xuan Ge had long since vanished without a trace; the emissary couldn't find the General, so she had to step forward to receive them.

That emissary's attitude was extremely respectful, polite throughout, as if they truly had only come to deliver gifts and congratulate Shen Wu on its victory in the Third Abundance War.

Until the emissary repeatedly pressed a single question, only then did Ling Sha suddenly realize.

"General Shen Wei, recently, have you been on the Shen Wu Xian Zhou the whole time?"

The moment Ling Sha heard this question, the very first thought in her mind was:

Xing Xiao! It's definitely her — she made Xuan Ge use the power of causality!

At this moment, Xing Xiao wore a thin gray nightrobe, leaning casually against a soft couch.

She crossed her jade legs; her jade-white buttocks and thigh roots still showed clear flushes, a soft expanse of red, fully displaying a married woman's seductive charm.

"Ling Sha, so what if I played big?" Xing Xiao let out a cold snort, her tone full of disdain.

"Why don't you ask why the Family didn't go to the Antimatter Legion to find me, but instead came to the Shen Wu Xian Zhou to find Xuan Ge?"

She didn't care in the slightest about the Harmony Family showing up — even seemed a bit pleased with herself.

She deliberately used Xuan Ge's power of causality to "stir up trouble"; even without Xuan Ge backing her, who could do anything to her?

She still remembered — when she and Xuan Ge joined together, she clearly felt her own Harmony power wanting to devour Xuan Ge's Harmony power.

But constrained by the power of Cause on Xuan Ge, she ultimately couldn't make a move.

But, if Huan Long were added, it would be different.

Xing Xiao's gaze slowly shifted toward Huan Long beside her.

Right now Huan Long's expression was gentle, her eyes actually holding a thick interest.

Ling Sha glanced at Xing Xiao helplessly, silently grumbling:

In this Huan Yu, there are many who play with causality, but no one can compare to the General.

The Harmony Family's emissary ultimately returned empty-handed, but Ling Sha knew in her heart they had most likely already guessed the answer.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have specially come knocking to press the question.

After all, the relationship between Xing Xiao and Xuan Ge had long spread across the entire Huan Yu — a matter known to everyone.

Elsewhere, somewhere in the Huan Yu, Xuan Ge was physically Jumping rapidly, yet not rushing, stopping and starting, quite leisurely.

He would occasionally descend on some planet, eat drink and play, spend lavishly, then continue on his way — not a trace of urgency.

But his target was very clear — the Asdana Star System within the Harmony Family's sphere of influence.

"Stellaron~ be good~ open the door~ I want to come in~"

Xuan Ge hummed a little tune, strolling through the starry sky of the Asdana Star System, looking relaxed.

The Memory Matter here was extremely dense, a veritable paradise for Memorists; in this star domain, Memorists could practically thrive like fish in water.

But this dense Memory Matter didn't affect Xuan Ge in the slightest — he could easily conceal his figure, unnoticed by anyone.

Suddenly, the Harmony power within Xuan Ge resonated without warning, as if sensing something.

He raised his eyes, piercing through layers of starlight, his gaze landing on a distant planet.

That planet was being eroded by a Stellaron, its surface continuously collapsing, already on the brink of destruction.

"Found you~"

A smile hooked Xuan Ge's lips; his figure vanished instantly, turning into a streak of light, speeding toward that doomed planet.

Inside the planet eroded by the Stellaron, chaos reigned.

Houses collapsed, flames raged, the air thick with smoke and the breath of despair.

All around were weeping, sighing, and figures praying desperately.

A clear, lovely figure was gently holding two small children, crouching in a corner of the ruins — it was Luo Rui Ya.

Luo Rui Ya looked tenderly at the trembling children in her arms, slowly opening her mouth, using a soft song to soothe their panic.

Her singing was clear and melodious, piercing through the sky-full of ruins, attempting to harmonize the desperate emotions of those around.

Yet even as they pleaded for salvation with dirges, they never received a god's downward glance.

Despair, like a tide, drowned the entire planet.

Luo Rui Ya clearly felt the Stellaron's power continuously devouring people's beautiful dreams — including her own.

A deep despair welled up in her heart; she hugged the two children tightly, her fingertips turning slightly white from the force.

"Mama~"

The little girl in her arms, Robin, had tears at the corners of her eyes.

She watched her mother's slightly trembling lips, felt the rise and fall of her mother's chest, and her slightly trembling body, and called out frailly.

Luo Rui Ya took a deep breath, forcefully suppressing the despair at the bottom of her heart, gently rubbed the two children's little heads, and soothed tenderly:

"Don't be afraid~ Sunday, you're the older brother, you have to take good care of your little sister~"

Sunday, the little boy in her arms, though he himself was also trembling all over with fright, still heard his mother's words and firmly reached out his small hand, tightly gripping Robin's small hand.

"Si... sister, don't be afraid, Older Brother is here."

Robin tightly gripped her brother's hand, nodding slightly, the fear in her eyes dissipating a few degrees.

But just as she tried to bravely lift her head to look at the surrounding situation, she saw a massive planet fragment, like a falling star, come crashing down with a boom.

It smashed onto the ruins not far away, kicking up dust that filled the sky.

"Don't be afraid~ Don't be afraid~ Mommy's here~"

Luo Rui Ya hurriedly pulled both children tightly into her arms, using her own body to block their gaze, not letting them see this terrifying scene.

But the next second, the Memory Matter on the planet suddenly began to fall into disorder, streams of Memory Matter Turbulence raging out, carrying a powerful tearing force.

Luo Rui Ya felt that tearing force capable of dissolving her, and her face instantly turned deathly pale.

She had no hesitation whatsoever, violently releasing her hands that held the two children.

She knew she would definitely be dissolved by this tearing force; she could not implicate her children.

Sunday's eyes went wide, looking at his mother in disbelief, watching her push him and his sister away.

Watching her figure begin to blur and distort, as if the next second she would vanish completely.

"Mother!" He cried out sadly in a loud voice, his voice hoarse, his eyes instantly filling with tears.

"Mommy! Don't!"

Robin also broke down crying, struggling to rush over and grab her mother's hand, but was held fast by Sunday.

"Brother don't! I want Mommy, I want Mommy!"

Robin cried and screamed with heart-rending anguish, her little body constantly struggling, watching her mother about to disappear, the pain in her heart indescribable.

"Oh? Three little birds?"

A gentle yet powerful voice suddenly rang out, instantly drawing Sunday and Robin's attention.

The two of them slowly raised their heads, looking behind them.

They saw a white-robed man gently holding their mother, his expression gentle.

"Mommy!"

Robin ran over in small quick steps, and because she was too urgent, she nearly pulled Sunday — who was frozen in place, staring blankly at that white-robed man — down to the ground.

She ran to Luo Rui Ya's side, tightly gripping her mother's hand, feeling the warmth transmitted from her mother's hand, tears still falling non-stop, yet with a few degrees more reassurance.

She was so afraid, of losing Mommy again.

Luo Rui Ya was awakened by this familiar touch, slowly opening her eyes; the first thing that met her gaze was the strange man's handsome face.

She blanked for a moment, then realized, tightly gripping Robin's little hand, soothing in a gentle tone:

"Don't be afraid~ Don't be afraid~ Mommy's here~"
