Chapter 1599: Chapter 478: What Is Cherished
"Although I shouldn’t say this, but... we really must stop Yan Huan Meow..."
At that moment, inside Tong Yingying’s Jeep, as the atmosphere gradually turned somber, Meow glanced around and eventually sighed, deciding to play the villain herself.
And as she spoke at the right moment, when the other girls looked towards her, she had to quickly say,
"Bai Yi is well aware of the consequences of altering the past Meow. Previously, I exhausted my divine power to repair the timeline. Although everything returned to normal, it’s hard to say whether we can withstand such changes again...
"In other words, if Yan Huan does this, the world line will face the risk of obliteration again... but I no longer have enough divine power to fix it.
"Even if we take a step back, the changes brought by the modifier might be bearable for the world line, but as I said before, he doesn’t have Bai Yi’s constitution...
"Traveling to the past alone would cause great harm, let alone trying to alter a past closely related to him..."
Speaking, Meow looked at the girls and asked,
"The damage and pain are unimaginable for you all, he could very likely die Meow!"
With Meow saying this, Bai Yi did indeed recall when Yan Huan nearly collapsed in body while changing the past where they met.
Don’t forget, he was in a semi-fused state with Meow and still endured such pain...
This time...
Upon hearing this, Bai Yi finally stopped hesitating and hurriedly suggested,
"No matter what, we really need to find Yan Huan. Even if he truly wants to try and save his parents, with my help, it would be much safer than him going alone..."
"Indeed... Sister Tong, you know where Ye Shiyu’s house is, right?"
Sakuragi Hitomi took a deep breath upon hearing this and looked at Tong Yingying.
"Yes, we’re on the way."
Tong Yingying glanced at the time, noticing there was still some distance until 4:44.
However, at this moment, hearing Bai Yi’s hopeful words, Meow couldn’t help but sit down and helplessly say,
"Do you really think that Evil God would be so kind Meow? Would allow you to help Yan Huan... If that were the case, He wouldn’t be called Evil God, but rather the Great Benevolent God Meow..."
"..."
"His every gift is laced with undisguised malice, intending to toy with the souls of the living through desire..."
Meow’s clear emerald eyes reflected Sakuragi Hitomi’s stunned face and exuded divinity,
"Previously, wasn’t the index finger’s ritual a misunderstanding Meow... ’Clearly it was for true love, yet achieving this hurt the lover deeply,’ how ironic... also how morbidly playful Meow..."
"..."
Listening to Meow’s warning, Sakuragi Hitomi nervously pursed her lips.
But just then, Tong Yingying in the driver’s seat glanced at the rear-view mirror, and casually said,
"Sorry to interrupt Lord God’s criticism of heresy... The bad news is, seems someone is following us."
Her words elongated slightly on "Lord God," adding a subtle sarcasm, causing Meow to puff up in anger wanting to smack her with her paw, fortunately restrained by An Le.
Yet acknowledging Tong Yingying wasn’t lying, Meow chose to forgive her.
Because she also noticed, now several elusive black sedans appeared repeatedly in the rear-view mirror.
Glaring at those cars, Tong Yingying scoffed and identified them,
"They should be from the Golden Lion Group."
...
...
"Sister Shiyu, soon they’ll reach nearby, I need you to help delay them..."
At the moment, near Ye Mansion.
Autumn afternoons tend to darken earlier than usual, nearly five o’clock and the sun seemed about to set.
Yan Huan sat on the swing in the villa park, quietly watching time tick by,
"No matter what, I don’t want to use the modifier on you all..."
If Yan Huan truly intended to prevent them from interfering with his ritual, holding five modifiers, he had thousands of ways to intercept them, without needing Ye Shiyu to distract them via Aria.
However, he ultimately didn’t do that.
One reason is that using the modifier too frequently would increase its progress, and his goal wasn’t to make it explode, hence needing as much time as possible.
The second, of course, is he couldn’t bring himself to do that to his loved ones...
Even if they once did that to him.
"..."
Beside him, Ye Shiyu quietly watched Yan Huan’s profile, firmly nodded and agreed,
"Alright, Xiao Huan. This place is secluded; normally no one comes here."
"Yes, I’ll leave for a minute when the time comes..."
After making all preparations, Ye Shiyu clutched her phone, turned and left, glancing back at each step towards her villa.
While Yan Huan just sat there, waiting for the time to come.
"Tick-tock... tap-tap..."
As time ticked away, Yan Huan occasionally pulled out the pocket watch to check the time.
Over there, faint sounds of abrupt braking and some indistinct conversations came from Ye Mansion that was out of sight.
They should have arrived.
But after a few minutes, still no one came over.
Thus, it seemed Sister Shiyu indeed helped...
"4:43:23"
Well, the time is about right...
"..."
With shadow casting on his face, Yan Huan immediately slowly stood up, picked up the paper box beside him and tightly grasped the pocket watch.
