Chapter 282: Chapter 280: Reversing Time!
“The Demon Emperor is here,” Xiaomei reminded Sally.
Sally stopped and watched as a figure drew closer and closer to her, then she smiled warmly, “Demon Emperor, Your Majesty.”
The Demon Emperor looked at Sally and suddenly bowed deeply, “I owe Lady Sally my gratitude for saving my son’s life.”
Sally quickly sidestepped to avoid the bow, “I can’t accept such thanks, Your Majesty; just call me Little Su. Besides, I was saving my own Beast Husband, which I should do. I once had two Beast Husbands, but couldn’t save them due to my lack of strength at the time. Now that I have the ability, I will absolutely not let that happen again.”
“Indeed, missed opportunities and insufficient power lead to regrets that cannot be sought after.”
“Your Majesty is wise and insightful.”
“I have merely lived a few more days, that’s all.”
“Your Majesty is being modest. Is there anything else you need?” If he followed her directly here, it must be for more than just to express his thanks.
“Indeed, there is one small thing for which I’d like to ask Little Su’s help.”
“Please tell me, I’ll help in any way I can.”
“My thanks to Little Su in advance. You see, Manman has taken the name Ming Yuzhen, following the surname from that side. I wish for Little Shiyi to follow my surname.”
“Oh?” Sally understood and thought for a moment, “Does the Beast Emperor have a name in mind for Little Shiyi?”
“I do, indeed. I’ve thought of several thousand names, but the one I like most is Solomo Shar. If Little Su has any good suggestions, feel free to mention them.”
“Solomo…” That was quite the formidable name. She thought of her own golden-furred mouse, Xiao Jin, who slept all day long, “It’s a good name. I’ll ask Manman’s father. After all, he’s the one raising both children.”
“Good, then Little Su should hurry back. I’ve already relocated the high-ranking members of the Demon Clan to other continents, now the Dark Continent is entirely occupied by the Insect Clan.”
“Is that so? That’s quite convenient actually.”
“What do you mean by that?” asked the Demon Emperor.
“I’m about to deploy a weapon. It’s best if everyone below God Rank stays clear,” Sally said.
“What kind of weapon could be so powerful?” The Demon Emperor looked at Sally in surprise.
“It comes from another world…”
Sally, following the information Xiaomei provided, started to explain about the antimatter bullet… The Demon Emperor was fairly confused, impressed but not quite understanding. In the end, he did as Sally suggested, leaving the Dark Continent for Continent 9908 to visit Zi Qi and see his precious grandchildren.
“Host, the System has a new notification!” Xiaomei’s voice sounded very serious.
Sally was startled, “What is it?”
Xiaomei responded, “The System has decided to reverse time!”
Sally’s heart shook, “How far back?”
“You might have to return to Earth, to before you bound to Xiaomei,” Xiaomei’s voice sounded very disheartened, after all, she had reached the Divine Beast-grade, a level all Offspring Systems dreamed of attaining!
Plus, she was created by her Father without having her take revenge on the maternal reproduction machine; that was merely a catalyst set for her to reach Divine Beast status. And there was still an undeveloped program, and because of this program, her Father was harmed.
“Then all these years’ experiences in the Beast World, my children…”
“After the reversal of time, the host will not remember anything from here,” Xiaomei said.
“No! Absolutely not!” She couldn’t accept her children disappearing from her life!
“Is this really the System’s last solution to the Insect Clan? Reversing time?”
“Yes, Host,” Xiaomei confirmed.
“Isn’t there any way to stop time from reversing?”
“There is none. The reversal will occur in 72 hours.”
“Are there really no other ways to preserve all of this? Xiaomei, you’re very powerful, isn’t there something we can do? I really don’t want all this to disappear. Besides, I’m carrying a child in my womb.”
[Reversing the flow of time was a decision made by a Time Master God who sacrificed themself.]
[I want my children! Xiaomei, please think of a way!]
Xiaomei fell silent.
As Sally anxiously waited, she operated the controls and launched an antimatter bullet.
The Insect Beasts on the Dark Continent all turned into ashes!
But soon, waves of Insect Beasts flooded the Dark Continent again, as if they had found a space to occupy, pouring in like a deluge.
If Sally could not change the time reversal, he could only grow for three more days inside her belly.
[Host, there is only one way.]
[What way?]
[But it can only save the progeny, not the Beast Husband.]
A twisting pain like knives enveloped Sally’s heart…
[Continue.]
[Xiaomei is now of Divine Beast-grade, having reached the highest level, and can initiate an ultimate operation.]
This ultimate operation was the reason Farther was harmed. To fulfill Sally’s request, the ultimate operation had to be initiated.
It was an incomplete function that needed to be algorithmically developed by her. And Xiaomei, now of Divine Beast-grade, had the capability to develop it on her own.
[Speak.]
[Disconnect from the System, becoming an independent existence. Without the support of the System, Xiaomei might not be able to provide more assistance to the host in the future. Things like antimatter bullets would be impossible to replicate.]
[I just want to keep my children safe.]
[After disconnecting from the System, Xiaomei will not be affected by the time reversal, and the host will also become an existence outside of this Beast World. The host’s offspring can be hidden in the Offspring Space, immune to the effects of time reversal. They will remain there until the time reversal ends, and only then, at this very moment, can the children be retrieved from the space.]
[What about the fetus in my womb?]
[He has not yet been born and is unaffected by the world.]
[That’s a relief.] He should be the last Beastman in this world before the time reset.
[In 71 hours and 45 minutes, Xiaomei will initiate the ultimate operation and then open the passage to Earth. At that time, Earth will also undergo time reversal. The host will need to kill herself at that time, taking her place.]
[Killing myself is rather… exhilarating!] Sally felt helpless, but if this was the only way to protect her children, she would do anything, even if it meant killing or eating herself.
[Thus, you have also become an Offspring System that has been exiled.]
[It’s Xiaomei’s greatest fortune to have met the host. After disconnecting from the System, Xiaomei will also be free and won’t be disliked by the host anymore.]
[Nonsense, I’ve always loved you the most, Xiaomei~]
…
Sally returned to the Beast Emperor’s Palace.
Ming Linyuan felt regretful; why hadn’t he gone to Linhai Park? Then he might have been able to join Zi Qi…
Entering the hall, Sally said to Ming Linyuan, “It’s indeed a bit regrettable, maybe I would have agreed to your idea. But now it’s impossible, I’m pregnant again.”
Everyone looked at her.
Zi Qi felt a tremendous joy wash over him… gazing at her slender, enticing waist, “Really?”
Zong Silu and Pei Xuan were also there, their eyes on Sally brimming with emotions, yet repressing them from being too evident.
“Mhm.” Sally glanced at him, then addressed Zong Silu, Pei Xuan, and Ming Linyuan, “Take your children and go back home. Whatever instructions or reminders you have, be thorough. On the third day, I will take the children away from this world!”
