Chapter 1673: Have We Made This World Better?

Have We Made This World Better?

Tian Xiaochen's first reaction at this moment was to quickly notify Chen Ling.

The Lord of Wuji had gone crazy, this was a major event. But he didn't have Thought Storm, so before Chen Ling proactively contacted him, he fundamentally had no way to transmit any information to Chen Ling...

"Dad! I can run by myself!" Tian Xiaochen was really being shaken too much on his shoulder, and couldn't help but speak up.

"Cut the crap!"

His father was already unable to think at this moment, his mind only thinking of taking his wife and child to escape the Eternal Domain as quickly as possible. But he was too nervous, so much so that he fundamentally couldn't realize, in the Eternal Domain, where else could they run?

Run to the edge of the sky and jump off?

The father's brain was a mess, only his legs moving mechanically. Then the next moment, his feet were as if welded to the ground, and his whole person was violently imprisoned in place.

Pinned to death along with him, was his wife.

"Lord of Wuji! If you want to kill, kill me! Let my child go!" The father roared with all his might.

Yet the Lord of Wuji seemed to fundamentally not hear his words. His bloodshot eyes only had persistence for eternity. Lightning spread from beneath his body, enveloping this couple and Tian Xiaochen on his shoulder together!

The father and Mother's bodies began to泛起 a golden luster bit by bit. Severe pain filled their minds, and they couldn't help but wail out loud...

Tian Xiaochen's eyes almost split open. He directly jumped up from his father's back and pounced towards the Lord of Wuji with complete disregard for everything!

"Lord of Wuji!"

"Even if you kill everyone it's useless, we are not afraid of you... The Red King will definitely lead us to Reverse the Era and Reboot the World!!"

Tian Xiaochen's parents had already turned into golden sculptures standing tall on the street. They still maintained the posture of reaching out wanting to grab Tian Xiaochen, their eyes full of pain and despair...

And hearing Tian Xiaochen's words, the Lord of Wuji's bloodshot eyes suddenly froze.

In mid-air,

Tian Xiaochen swung his fist and smashed it towards the Lord of Wuji's face!

Smack——!

Just when the Lord of Wuji was dazed, Tian Xiaochen's fist actually really smashed into his face, only the next second severe pain filled his hand bones, as if hitting a piece of incomparably hard steel.

After Tian Xiaochen finished swinging a punch, his whole person lost his center of gravity and plummeted downwards. The Lord of Wuji's palm suddenly shot out, locked onto Tian Xiaochen's wrist, and lifted him up in mid-air like a little chick...

"You're right..." The Lord of Wuji lowered his head, those bloodshot eyes gazing at the struggling Tian Xiaochen in his hand.

"He will Reverse the Era... and Reboot the World."

Sizzle—

Lightning burst forth from the Lord of Wuji's hand, and severe pain enveloped Tian Xiaochen's mind. He bit his lips and forcibly endured not to cry out, just glaring at the Lord of Wuji stubbornly like this...

The golden luster covered his body bit by bit, freezing his expression... resolute, unyielding, and full of hope.

Ultimately, Tian Xiaochen also became a member of the "eternal" sentient beings.

The Lord of Wuji released Tian Xiaochen's wrist, and the latter crashed to the ground like a heavy block of lead. He subconsciously raised his head and looked around, wanting to find the next experimental sample...

But the next moment, he froze in place.

The whimpering cold wind brushed over eternity, and the entire city was already deathly silent and soundless.

In the entire Eternal Domain... there were no living people left.

Tian Xiaochen was the last resident of the Eternal Domain, yet the Lord of Wuji still hadn't found that glimmer of possibility on his body... He had failed.

The Eternal Domain he once took pride in, was personally turned into a dead city by him. Here there were no longer any humans needing his protection, only statues of sentient beings who had turned into metal bodies and achieved "eternity".

The eternity he pursued...

Had failed.

He exhausted everything and walked to the end of eternity, only to find this was a dead end.

Even the Lord of Wuji fell into deep confusion at this moment... The glimmer of possibility he once let go of Morality and Human Nature to pursue, ultimately became an untouchable Flowers In A Mirror, Moon In Water, hollow and ridiculous.

All the efforts of his life were in vain. The so many people he killed, the so many souls he imprisoned, and all the sins he bore, didn't become a guide pointing the direction for humanity, but truly and surely became an imprisonment he could never break free from.

No...

He actually had guessed this result long ago.

From the first time he tried to transform the residents' diseased areas into material bodies, he already had some awareness. The reason he continued was only because he stubbornly wanted to pursue a result, wanting to prove that everything he had done wasn't completely meaningless. But unfortunately... miracles didn't happen.

"...Hehe."

The Lord of Wuji's Black Alchemical Robes swayed gently in the desolate and cold wind. He stood above the empty and deserted Eternal Domain, letting out a complex bitter smile.

Subsequently, his confused and bitter gaze was gradually replaced by another kind of indifference.

He lowered his head and looked at his hands...

A USB Drive quietly lay in his palm.

"Lu Xun... I lost."

"Rest assured..."

"I, will put an end to this."

...

Timeline Save File.

The rustling leaves gently knocked against the laboratory window under the piercingly cold wind.

Under the dim sky, a young figure wearing a White Coat Wearer wearily crossed the corridor and arrived at the door of his laboratory... Just at this moment, he discovered that there seemed to be an extra person in his laboratory.

That was a figure draped in a black robe. He just sat quietly in front of the window, his back facing the door. Beside his hand lay the latest issue of the newly arrived "Science Journal" magazine. The title of a cutting-edge article on material science was ranked on the cover...

But the author's column was an unfamiliar name that had absolutely nothing to do with material science.

Lou Yu subconsciously frowned,

"Hello, may I ask if there is anything?"

That person didn't respond. He just sat there, as if lost in memories.

"Hello...?"

Lou Yu subconsciously walked forward.

Immediately after, that person slowly stood up. He took off his hood and turned his head to look at Lou Yu... The moment he saw him, Lou Yu was startled, because that was exactly a face extremely similar to his own.

He just looked at him like this, and after a long time, spoke somewhat complexly:

"Long time no see, Lou Yu."

"You... who are you?!" Lou Yu subconsciously took a half-step back.

"I am you." The Lord of Wuji paused for a moment. "You can understand it as... the you from the future."

Lou Yu was stunned.

He just looked at the Lord of Wuji like this, and the Lord of Wuji also looked at him like this... The Lord of Wuji knew that he fundamentally didn't need to explain anything, because he understood his past self too well.

Sure enough, Lou Yu had almost not the slightest doubt about "his future self", and a touch of expectation instead surfaced in his eyes.

He opened his mouth, seeming to want to ask something...

But was also somewhat hesitant.

After being silent for a full over twenty seconds, he finally tentatively asked a sentence:

"Even if making just a tiny bit of contribution is fine... In the future... Have we made this world better?"
