Chapter 2408 Within a Day (1)

The voice of the meteor shower grew softer and softer, yet it struck people's hearts like a heavy hammer.

"Please, please promise me? I promise that after seeing what the world is really like for a day, I will obediently go back with you."

The valley fell into a brief silence.

Fen Gu raised his head, a final glimmer of hope burning in his eyes.

His tears of blood dripped down his chin, but he couldn't utter a single word.

Even if fate cannot be changed, he must at least buy a moment of time for the meteor.

The meteor shower—her name itself foreshadowed her destiny.

Flowers bloom in splendor, but their beauty is fleeting, like a shooting star streaking across the sky.

Zhang Yi stood there quietly, as if deep in thought. After a long while, he slowly nodded.

"Okay, I promise you."

With things having come to this point, the Night Witch no longer protects Burning Bones and Meteor Shower, and everything is now over.

As long as they are on this moon, they have nowhere to escape.

It sounds pretty tragic, but there's nothing Zhang Yi can do. He feels a little sorry for them, but he won't change his mind.

Consider it a good deed.

Shunliuxing froze, tears welling up, and a long-lost smile appeared on her face.

Zhang Yi's gaze was calm, his voice low but firm: "But we will be with you. The world you want to see, we will go with you to see it."

Shunliuxing's tears finally welled up, and she hugged Fengu tightly, her body trembling from the emotional breakdown.

Burning Bones slowly raised his hands and carefully embraced her, as if afraid of losing everything before him.

The Night Witch watched silently, an indescribable expression on her face.

Her eyes held both pity and sorrow.

Zhang Yi suddenly turned his head, staring at the Night Witch, and slowly said, "You were once the First Black Moon Priestess. Can you tell me why you gave up your identity and came here alone?"

The Night Witch's eyes flickered slightly, and after a long while, she whispered, "Because I saw the future."

Her voice carried a low sigh, as if even the air itself had become heavy.

“I see an unstoppable destiny. Samael will one day break free from his seal. Both the Radiant Moon Empire and the Dark Moon Empire will be reduced to ruins at that moment. All sacrifices, all efforts, all bloodshed... will only become nothingness.”

She raised her head, her gaze fixed on the distance, as if she had pierced through time and space to see the impending disaster.

“I once thought that by abandoning my priesthood and hiding deep within this Dark Sun Forest, I could forget those omens. But now it seems I can’t escape them after all. The wheel of fate rolls on, crushing everything in its path.”

Her voice gradually choked up, but she remained calm.

Zhang Yi's expression shifted slightly, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes, but he did not press the matter further.

He knew that some things didn't need to be said outright at that moment.

They sealed Mammon away.

However, according to the dragons, it only delays Mammon's breaking of the seal by one or two hundred years.

It was inevitable that the seven demon gods would break free from their seal.

Even the Ihen Clan could not completely destroy them.

Therefore, the Night Witch realized that even their billions of years of protection could not completely seal Samael away.

The Drucker Titans were capable of devouring everything in the material world. The power of the seal was like adding fuel to the fire, constantly strengthening and then being continuously consumed by the Drucker Titans.

Therefore, each time the Druk people break free from their seal, they become even stronger!

This is a world that will eventually be destroyed.

The Witch of the Night witnessed a hopeless final chapter, and thus collapsed.

However, Zhang Yi would not have such a pointless thought.

Two hundred years, three hundred years?

Will his life be able to continue until then?

There shouldn't be any problem, because as Zhou Ke'er's abilities grow stronger, Zhang Yi and the others' biological structures are also being gradually optimized.

Telomere elongation, enhanced cell activity, and perhaps one day, they may even achieve immortality like the Ephemeral race.

Even just surviving is still living! So why be so pessimistic?

This world has never truly ended; people from every era have survived.

At worst, if the world is destroyed, Zhang Yi will take the people around him and escape to a secluded paradise to continue living.

Zhang Yi looked at the young couple embracing in front of him, but did not interrupt their tender moment.

Lancelot frowned and said in a low voice, "How long are they going to keep hugging?"

King Arthur gave him a look: "It won't make a difference if we wait a little longer. Let them enjoy this rare moment of freedom!"

Just as night fell, footsteps echoed from the mouth of the valley.

A familiar figure led the two of them in.

King Arthur and Saladin turned around and looked at each other with surprise.

Did anyone actually survive?

When they saw who it was, their eyes widened in surprise.

The people who arrived were Gao Changkong, Gu Man, and Batu.

King Arthur did not have a deep impression of Gao Changkong; in the entire Bharata, only Indra was worth remembering.

As for Gao Changkong, he vaguely knew that he was a second-rate person with decent abilities.

But now, Indra is not here, so what is the deal with this Gao Changkong?

Neither King Arthur nor Saladin paid much attention to Gao Changkong's affairs.

People of this caliber are not worth their time and effort.

However, when Zhang Yi and Yang Xinxin saw Gao Changkong, their eyes revealed a meaningful look.

They knew better than anyone else what level Gao Changkong's strength had reached.

Having endured for many years, he now possesses the strength to overthrow Indra and ascend to the position of Bharata.

"I thought you had died out there! Or that your minds had been corrupted and you had become dark apostles."

Zhang Yi said with a smile and a calm tone.

The gaze from above swept across the valley and when it landed on Zhang Yi, the expression softened slightly.

He chuckled lightly, "How could I die so easily? Have you forgotten that I can see the future?"

Zhang Yi turned around, his gaze steady, and nodded slightly.

"That's true, you are indeed very capable."

"It is also thanks to your help that we have been able to get to where we are today."

Before setting off, Zhang Yi had Yang Xinxin shoot an arrow at Gao Changkong, controlling him to activate the [Reincarnation Deduction] ability.

Based on this, we can deduce the most likely future development trend.

This ability is extremely precise; unless it encounters a more powerful time-manipulation ability user, it will generally not deviate from reality.

Although unlike Indra, who has such accurate predictions about the distant future, he is here to help Zhang Yi see many things clearly.

It was Gao Changkong's ability that allowed Zhang Yi to "see" the truth behind Shiyue Yan's death and their being sent into the Dark Sun Forest.

Otherwise, how could he have entered the Dark Sun Forest so calmly?

A smile appeared on Gao Changkong's lips, a smile that remained resilient even after experiencing war and slaughter.

"We share the same goal, so there's no need to be so polite. After all, I also need your help!"
