"Hmm..."
Yao Qingxue's eyelids twitched.
A soft whimper escaped her lips, followed by a furrowed brow as she slowly opened her eyes.
She saw Wu Liang sitting on the floor, pulling tissues from his pocket to stop his nosebleed. [Pioneer] showed a look of utter desolation, while Ah Yimu was standing nearby, her face filled with anxiety and anticipation.
Her eyes were like a calm pool, seemingly capable of dragging everyone into the depths without rescue.
Ah Yimu suddenly felt her breath almost stopping, not daring to make a sound.
"Seems like the modification wasn't thorough at all... Why does Mom look like she wants to eat people now?"
Wu Liang, with two tissues stuffed up his nostrils, stood up, realizing sothing was off the mont Yao Qingxue opened her eyes.
Although the Cursed Ruby had been erased, its consequences seed not entirely lifted; Yao Qingxue still appeared to be in a state of amnesia!
"Saintess Yao... you..."
Ah Yimu trembled, kneeling lightly and calling out to Yao Qingxue, yet she simply moved her gaze off her, not caring at all.
She first gazed at Wu Liang, with a deepened look of puzzlent and contemplation.
This person gave her an inexplicable sense of familiarity and even intimacy, even though she couldn't rember who he was, her inner self felt no guard against him.
But when Yao Qingxue's eyes fell on [Pioneer], who had been reduced to a re stump, the confusion and puzzlent instantly vanished.
All that remained was a pure, unfiltered ferocity; not even Wu Liang and [Pioneer], who frequently traversed the edge of the blade, were able to ignore it, let alone an ordinary person like Ah Yimu.
"You don't deserve to live."
She said through gritted teeth.
Then she closed one eye, waving her hand lightly toward [Pioneer].
Next mont, an incredibly terrifying space crack appeared beneath [Pioneer's] feet, causing him to fall straight down due to being unable to move after having his limbs cut off.
Just as he was about to be shredded by the space, Wu Liang pulled him up.
After all, he had kept the guy alive all this ti, even going to extre lengths to prevent his suicide for a reason, not just to have him kneel and apologize to Yao Qingxue.
"Oh my goodness, Mom, can't you calm down? How about we sit down and talk?" Wu Liang was quite troubled at this point.
He hadn't expected such a difference between the sleeping Yao Qingxue in the cave and the Yao Qingxue outside Taohua Village.
One was gentle like water, the other decisively aggressive.
"Talk? Does this beast deserve to talk with equally? You want to save him?" Yao Qingxue glanced sideways at Wu Liang.
Even now, she felt inexplicably close to the young man, but her killing intent toward [Pioneer] soon overshadowed it.
Before Wu Liang could explain, a sudden sense of crisis erged within him.
Without hesitation, he grabbed [Pioneer] and kicked the ground fiercely, making them retreat nearly ten ters.
Where they originally stood had turned into a pitch-black void, seemingly swallowed by a terrifying space crack.
"Run? Where do you think you're going?"
Yao Qingxue's voice, which should have been lodious, now sounded like a life-taking Fierce Ghost's chilling statent.
Wu Liang realized the ten ters retreat seed like an illusion; he and [Pioneer] were still standing less than three ters in front of Yao Qingxue.
Damn it! The space power Mom wields seems to far exceed what he'd seen from Minister Long.
Minister Long's thod opens a portal at both far ends, allowing passage from one side to the other like a wormhole.
Yao Qingxue, however, was even more domineering!
She simply erased the space between them, making any attempts to distance themselves futile, with those two or three ters never changing.
Distance beca a laughable notion in her eyes!
"Nightmare! Help calm Mom down!"
Wu Liang urged Nightmare to rge with him, switching into Spiritual Body mode intending to enter Yao Qingxue's mind.
But before he could act, Mom stepped to him ahead.
She casually remarked, "Did you do anything just now? No?"
As soon as she spoke, Wu Liang noticed the Nightmare that had rged with him was mysteriously outside, erging confusedly from the mask.
It seed bewildered.
Wasn't it rged with the Boss just now?
Why was it back in the mask's main body? Could it be an illusion technique?
"Hahaha, didn't expect after years of slumber, Mistress you've wielded your Awakened Ability so skillfully, even surpassing how you were in my world!" [Pioneer] couldn't help but laugh maniacally.
Then he turned to Wu Liang, saying, "You think it's an illusion technique? Better think it over, kid. I'll be on my way now!"
With that, he lunged his head toward the nearby dark space crack.
Just like he had ntioned before—this shell only contained a Consciousness Fragnt, dead or alive, he wouldn't mind.
Moreover, Wu Liang kept preventing his suicide, surely harboring other plans, which always gave [Pioneer] an impression his main body might suffer losses in the future.
Now, it's perfect timing as Yao Qingxue wants to kill him.
She'd be the one to hinder Wu Liang; whatever sche the kid had, as long as he fell into the space crack now, it wouldn't matter.
"I've told you! Whether you live or die, ask !" Wu Liang's eyes flashed gold as he shouted.
Next second, the space crack, torn like a black hole, vanished into thin air!
And [Pioneer] crashed onto the ground again, his face filled with regret.
What a pity; he was only a step away from suicide.
"Phew... He's right, Mom, you indeed don't have any illusion technique abilities; you possess sothing far more terrifying—ti!"
Wu Liang panted heavily, recalling what he saw inside the cave using the Ghost Compendium where Yao Qingxue utilized her precognition ability.
Coupled with the different ti flows within the cave, Taohua Village outside, and the Tianshan Mountain Range.
He ca to a highly absurd conclusion.
Perhaps Mom not only "sees" the future but can also "fast forward" and "rewind"!
It wasn't an illusion just now, nor was the rger process interrupted; rather, Yao Qingxue pushed ti backwards to before the rge with just one sentence, making it so the rger never took place!
Thus Nightmare reappeared from the mask!
Thinking this, Wu Liang helplessly looked at [Pioneer] and said, "Now I'm even more curious about what exactly happened back then; how did my Mom get her abilities sealed and put to sleep by you?"
Soone capable of controlling space and ti!
What an incredibly heaven-defying Awakened Ability!
