Zero was silent.
This ti, he remained silent for a full minute.
Finally, Zero sighed.
"How did you know?"
"My daughter told not to believe the words in the video."
Zero was a bit unwilling: "Impossible, I watched the video carefully, every word she said, every tiny action, I confird it. She didn't give you any code or secret ssage."
Chen Nuo laughed heartily: "You don't understand.
This is a special bond between my daughter and .
It's a special bond across different ti-space, different eras, between a father and daughter who've never truly t."
Zero, still unwilling: "What exactly is it?"
"It's very simple," Chen Nuo smiled, "My daughter looked very serious in the video and spoke a lot, as if discussing with you the solution.
However, at the crucial mont, she said three words to ."
Zero: "…Which three words?"
"…See for yourself."
Chen Nuo's eyes were full of mockery: "Only we, father and daughter, understand this connection. Because whenever we speak using these three words, it ans what we're saying is not to be trusted."
···
Zero was once again rendered silent.
After a mont, he still struggled: "But... since you knew from the beginning, why did you swallow Seed and then co here with my tiline?
Your era has already ended. Gray Cat is dead, The Fourth Seed is dead.
Your two won will certainly die too.
Since you knew from the start it was a trap, why..."
Chen Nuo sneered again: "Who told you these things happened in my era? How do you know Gray Cat and The Fourth Seed are dead?"
Chen Nuo's eyes were sharp and filled with killing intent: "So, you left a line in my era! Although you can't live past 1999, you could find another way, a pair of eyes that could fly into my ti! Then...
Well, just like the Ti Ability you placed on Chen Jianshe.
Let guess what you'd do...
So, it's Sally, isn't it?
The little girl who inexplicably appeared in front of when I leapt to 1999.
In such a vast place as Afghanistan, vast mountains and deserts.
And yet, I t a rare Special Ability User, she happened to be in danger, tangled with .
Coincidentally, she saved my life.
Moreover, she's so young.
She could undoubtedly live to future tis.
If I were you, I wouldn't even recruit her as an underling.
If I were you, such a little girl would be very easy to deceive.
Using her feelings of attachnt to , her concern, her longing.
You just need to set a tiline on her identical to the one on Chen Jianshe.
Let her live to the ti I return, let her go to Jinling, find , secretly observe everything around .
Then, activate the tiline, return to 1999, and tell you everything she saw.
Using an innocent, unsuspecting girl, using her admiration for , turning her into your eyes cast into the future, isn't it?"
Chen Nuo said coldly word by word: "Since I guessed you were deceiving , I guessed you'd certainly send eyes.
Since I guessed you'd send eyes...
Of course, I had to put on a play in the future to fool you! Otherwise, if I don't deceive you, if I don't lure you to this place, how can I kill you?
Zero!"
Suddenly, Zero struggled frantically again.
He seed to feel despair, struggling with all his might.
Then, countless grid lines appeared around him, but before they could solidify, Chen Nuo quickly shattered them.
Zero floated frantically, trying to escape Chen Nuo's grasp, but no matter how he changed forms, he could no longer move, unable to touch the grids appearing around him.
And Chen Nuo's fingers finally tightened their power slowly!
Soon, the power of Sword of Killing Intent pierced through Zero's body, seeping through ticulously, then…
After struggling for a full minute, Zero's body finally stopped moving.
His body began to dissolve.
Then, it transford back into a chaotic Spiritual Life Form, and finally, this Spiritual Life Form began to burn.
Under the Negative Emotion Virus, it seed to be self-destructing.
Chen Nuo didn't relax, his spiritual power's perception steadfastly locked onto this guy.
Only after more than ten minutes, Zero's power completely dissipated.
Chen Nuo still didn't stop releasing power, continuing to release it for more than ten minutes after Zero's breath completely stopped.
And his spiritual sensing, unwaveringly and ticulously searched.
Finally, after more than thirty minutes, Chen Nuo exhaled.
He could confirm: Zero was killed by him!!
Killed at the mont when Mother had just created it billions of years ago.
Chen Nuo expanded the range of his spiritual perception several tis, carefully searched the surrounding area again.
His heart finally settled completely.
It wasn't that Chen Nuo was too cautious, but this insidious opponent had indeed caused him so much trouble.
Then, Chen Nuo looked at the distant peak.
He knew that Mother was continuously releasing its energy and simultaneously rging completely with this planet.
Chen Nuo smiled, then waved lightly towards that distant peak.
Then, he turned and flew away.
·
Flying over mountains and rivers.
Flying over oceans.
When Chen Nuo landed on an unknown continent, he landed back on the ground.
Slowly, he walked to the side of a river.
Chen Nuo touched his pocket, took out three Jade Rice Grains, and tossed two of them onto the ground.
The two Jade Rice Grains, still with a faint trace of power, seemingly about to dry up, yet with a lingering rhythm.
Gently, Chen Nuo converted a bit of Life Material, injected it in...
Soon, two masses of life began to reconvene within the Jade Rice Grains, slowly, bit by bit, coming together again.
Finally...
The Gray Cat opened its eyes, looked around, and then fixed its gaze on Chen Nuo, pausing for a mont.
Then, the Gray Cat suddenly leapt backward.
But this ti, it landed right on soone's body.
The Gray Cat looked down and exclaid, "…ow!!"
The Fourth Seed struggled to get up, trying hard to open its eyes to look around. When it saw Chen Nuo,
the expression on Chen Nuo's face, a half-smile, left the Fourth Seed bewildered.
"I..."
Chen Nuo coughed lightly, "Stop calling out and listen to .
You are not dead. The Seed did not truly kill and devour you.
It's just that at that ti, we weren't sure where exactly Zero's 'eyes' were, so... I made an agreent with the Seed to stage a play from the start. Not knowing where the audience was, we decided to just keep acting from the beginning."
The Fourth Seed still seed unable to comprehend Chen Nuo's words.
But the Gray Cat's eyes had already lit up.
Chen Nuo looked at the Gray Cat, "In fact, before the Seed ca looking for you, I had already returned.
The first thing I did upon returning was to find the Seed and strike a deal with him."
The Gray Cat blinked its eyes, "What did you trade with him?"
Chen Nuo smiled, "Ti."
"Ti–Ti?"
"Yes."
Chen Nuo's face and eyes showed a hint of complexity, "I promised him that in the future, perhaps I would agree to rge with him and embark on the path of evolving to the fourth dinsion.
Maybe I will, maybe I won't.
But we can put this decision off for the future, maybe decades, maybe centuries.
After all, having lived this long, what's another few hundred or thousand years, right?"
Gray Cat: "I... don't understand."
Chen Nuo waved his hand, "It's easy to understand. If I devour him, it ans he's dead too. Who likes death?"
"Our view on death..."
"Alright, alright, I know, for beings like you, your understanding of death and devouring is different from us humans," Chen Nuo waved his hand again to stop Gray Cat's words, "But you know what?
Actually, even among humans, there are those who aren't afraid of death.
But even the most fearless of death will fear one thing.
We fear the concerns we leave behind after death!"
Gray Cat seed to understand, "…The Seed has concerns?"
Chen Nuo looked at Gray Cat, "When a Seed dies, its Chosen One also dies.
And the Seed… I am not his only Chosen One."
·
No matter what wild thoughts the Gray Cat was having, Chen Nuo had already grabbed the Fourth Seed and put it in front of him.
"Actually, I really, really want to kill you. The reason I don't is obvious to everyone," Chen Nuo said slowly, "But I'm also not comfortable leaving you in that era. A Seed like you will never be content and will definitely try to stir sothing up again.
Even though I'm now strong enough not to fear you,
I'm afraid of the Seed.
I'm afraid that if he loses control, he might kill you.
So, I can only separate you and the Seed completely—using ti to separate you!"
With that, Chen Nuo patted the Fourth Seed on the face, "Although the Seed is strong, he doesn't have ti ability.
So, he can't go back billions of years to kill you.
If you stay in this era, unless you kill yourself, you won't die in this era.
And the Mother of this era… you also don't have the ability to take it down.
The Seed devoured most of your power, now you… well, barely strong enough to win over an ordinary Destroyer.
You can endure slowly in this era.
I have carefully asked the Seed about the order of your birth.
The Mother first created Zero.
Then after ten thousand years, it felt the direction was wrong and created the second batch of Seeds.
The earliest of the second batch was the Gray Cat, then who ca next, I don't know.
But your birth order should be relatively late.
Which ans, from now on, if you want to beco powerful...
You can only devour other Seeds...
Or, you can wait here for ten thousand years until the second batch of Seeds is born.
But after their birth, you probably won't be able to beat them, so you'd better hide.
In any case… that's all ten thousand years later.
And all I ask is that before Lu Xixi and Sun Keke die of natural causes, you do not die.
Even though my two wives can live a long life, they can't live for ten thousand years.
So… for , it's enough.
And for you, it's as if I've locked you in this era, a Seed like you certainly won't commit suicide.
So, if you want to start the Seed War, endure for a while.
In ten thousand years, you can wait for the second batch of Seeds to be born.
Endure another billion years, and you may survive until after the year 2000, then co for revenge.
If possible, I'll be waiting for you."
Seeing the complex and confused expression of the Fourth Seed, Chen Nuo was too lazy to waste more words.
He patted his shoulder, "Gray Cat! Let's go ho!"
The Gray Cat imdiately jumped onto Chen Nuo's shoulder, "I thought… you would leave here, to keep company with this guy on this desolate Earth."
