Chapter 204 Going Back in Time
“I never imagined that I, who set the rules, would one day break them myself…” Shi Xi looked at the disappearing fairies, his expression serious yet tinged with melancholy: “If there is any price to pay, then I will bear it.”
Shi Xi picked up her staff, mobilized all her remaining fairy power, and began to cast a spell: "Ye Luoli Magic, in motion with the four seasons!"
As the staff swung, a virtual time dial appeared in front of Shi Xi, its hands spinning continuously.
"What is Princess Time doing?" Wang Mo asked Shu Yan, who was standing beside her, while looking at Shi Xi.
"This must be some kind of extremely powerful time magic." Shu Yan, who knew a little about time magic, immediately saw through Shi Xi's intention: "The Time Princess seems to want to... rewind time!"
"Going back in time?" The others were also very surprised.
"Will there be any consequences?" Wang Mo asked worriedly.
"I don't know, but the biggest taboo of time magic is that it cannot change things that have already happened in the past." Shu Yan's expression was grim: "Especially interfering with the past of so many people at once, I don't know what terrible things might happen."
Shi Xi ignored the words of the Ye Luoli warriors. She conjured up her pocket watch, placed it in the center of the virtual dial, pointed her staff at the watch, and began to cast a spell: "Ye Luoli Magic, Starry Sea, Position, Time Sand!"
As Shi Xi cast his spell, a giant, illusory clock appeared in the skies above both the human world and the fairy realm. The golden hands on the clock face kept turning, just like time, which never stops.
"Ye Luoli Magic, the River of Time, the Four Clocks, Time Reversal!"
Shi Xi's voice echoed across both worlds, and the hands on the clock suddenly stopped. The next moment, under the influence of Shi Xi's magic, they began to rotate counterclockwise.
Time in both worlds was reversed. The human world's landscape rapidly receded, ruins transformed back into skyscrapers, and reinforced concrete once again covered the human world. The restored nature returned to its scarred state.
All the fairies who disappeared because of human civilization have returned to their original forms. Although they are still deeply affected, they are no longer limited to maintaining their primordial spirit state.
A heart-wrenching separation finally revealed the true nature of their feelings for each other. Mandora looked at Xinling before her, feeling a pang of guilt: "Sister..."
“I know your intentions are good, but we should also have some faith in humanity.” Xin Ling shook her head: “Sister, I believe that after this incident you will understand that we should still adopt a policy of appeasement towards the human world.”
Seeing all the fairies return to their original forms, Mandora realized that although humans had destroyed nature and even affected the survival of the fairy realm, they were not entirely without merit. At least, fairies and humans were inextricably linked.
However, since the deed had already been done, the one who should bear the responsibility was not her, but Shi Xi, who had already fallen into a coma when the spell was completed.
"Princess Time!" Several Lingxi Pavilion masters noticed Shi Xi, who was lying unconscious to the side, and surrounded her with concern.
"Her primordial spirit has suffered a severe backlash and her life is in danger." Du Xifei never expected Shi Xi to face such a day: "Damn it, what on earth happened?"
"The Time Princess reversed time, which is how she saved everyone," Shu Yan couldn't help but say.
"How could this happen?!" Mandora exclaimed, her face filled with pity.
"The punishment of time magic?" Du Xifei asked with some worry, as if she had just thought of something.
"Did Princess Time sacrifice herself...?" Mo Sha frowned and said with a sad expression, "We are the ones who harmed Princess Time."
"Ye Luoli Magic, Eternal Night Without Limits, Black Hole!"
However, at that moment, a black hole suddenly appeared beneath Shi Xi, who was surrounded by the leaders of the Lingxi Pavilion, and swallowed her body!
"This is... the Imperial Prince?!" Yan Jue immediately recognized Li Hui's magic, but after looking around, he couldn't find Li Hui's figure.
"What did he take Shi Xi away for?" Pang Zun, with his fiery temper, immediately became restless, but his inability to select a target left him only with impotent rage.

"!" Shui Qingli suddenly opened her eyes.
"Prince Shui, what's wrong?" Qianqian noticed that Shui Qingli's emotions were fluctuating greatly and was worried that she had not recovered her body, so she asked.
"It's nothing," Shui Qingli said with a slight smile, "It's just... I sensed their presence!"
