Chapter 145 Please Call Me the King of Line Jamming
"Although I have a general idea of what kind of contract you want to draw up, I would like to hear the details."
"To put it simply, I need your help with Fushe and this..."
“Boyang, Your Majesty, my name is Boyang.”
"Take this Mr. Boyang out. After the matter is settled, I will inform you about something involving a contract. What do you think, Kiana?"
"It involves a contract... so you can say things here that you can't say otherwise?"
"That's right, but at most two items, one for each person, no more and no less."
Although he didn't know what the Emperor was discussing with that woman named Kiana, Bo Yang knew it was something he couldn't possibly know.
If you don't know something, don't ask about it. Boyang is able to figure things out.
“Okay, but judging from Fushe’s current condition, he won’t last long. Let’s start by treating him.”
As she spoke, Kiana began to repair Fushe's body using the power of the Herrscher of Resurrection, frowning as she did so.
To be honest, this was the first time she had ever seen someone who didn't cherish their body so much. Aside from the memory confusion caused by wear and tear, Fushe's body had long been eroded and broken by karmic obstacles.
Not only was there no part of his body intact, but his spirit was also eroded, making him forgetful and irritable.
Not to mention that karmic obstacles often spread to the surrounding areas, infecting those around them. Those infected may suffer from mental instability at best, and death at worst.
No wonder Xiao has always deliberately avoided crowds; karma is truly a malignant tumor.
Kiana's first task was to remove the karmic obstacles from Fushe's body. As wisps of black mist emanated from Fushe's body, Zhongli realized that Kiana was dealing with the karmic obstacles within Fushe's body.
So he quickly called Boyang to come behind him, and then erected a barrier to block the intrusion of karmic obstacles.
"Brother Yaksha, have the non-protective Yakshas always been going through such hardships?"
Feeling the evil and aggressive aura of karmic obstacles, one can't help but sigh.
Bo Yang knew the story of the Dharma Protector Yakshas from his family when he was a child, and he also felt disgusted by the karma that caused the Dharma Protector Yakshas to die or disappear.
I have also fantasized that one day I will be able to find a way to resolve my karmic obstacles and help those Dharma protectors who are still in the world to relieve their suffering.
This was his initial motivation for embarking on the path of an exorcist, and also one of the few ways he could repay his fellow exorcists.
But how easy is it to get rid of karmic obstacles? He spent his entire life trying to find a Yaksha, and it was only during this dark calamity that he encountered him for the first time.
Let alone a cure, even research has become a luxury in the face of disaster.
But now he saw someone so easily expelling their karmic burdens from their body. No, not only that, but those karmic burdens that were expelled were being slowly purified by an unknown force!
This is why I have been able to remain unharmed under the Emperor's protection for so long; after all, it is said that even the Emperor's protection cannot completely prevent such incidents.
After a short while, no more black mist appeared from Fushe's body, and the first phase of treatment came to an end.
The next step is treatment.
It's so heavy!
Feeling her tattered body floating in the air, Kiana experienced a sense of strain for the first time.
It's not that she can't treat it, but Kiana is finding it difficult to know where to begin when faced with the genetic blueprint she's encountering for the first time.
However, this was not a challenge, as Kiana stopped completely with a single thought.
To be honest, Kiana couldn't possibly attempt to repair a genetic blueprint she wasn't familiar with.
What she needs to do now is to use the time stop to thoroughly analyze the Yaksha's genetic blueprint!
However, the genetic blueprint of the Floating She is definitely unanalyzable, and even the genes of the Xiao cannot be used at will.
After all, over the long years, karmic obstacles have permeated every aspect of the Yakshas' bodies, and their genetic blueprints have long been eroded.
However, all the Yakshas who are still alive today have experienced battles with the remnants of demons, and their bodies have suffered from the erosion of karma to varying degrees.
The original Yaksha genetic blueprint no longer exists in the world, but that's not a difficult task for Kiana.
Kiana then reconnected to the Imaginary Tree. This time, her task was to return her consciousness to the past and find the exact moment when the first Yaksha was born.
Only in this way can she obtain the original genes, and thus use them as anchors to find the genetic evolution process of the Yaksha.
This way, she could easily obtain all the information related to the Yaksha, something she couldn't do back in the Immortal Ship.
Moreover, according to Otto's speculation, the Immortal Ship people were not granted imperfect immortality, but rather a certain being intervened in the process, which led to the current state of the Immortal Ship people.
However, the time stop is limited in duration; if it lasts too long, Sky Island might become aware of it.
Yes, Kiana's investigation revealed that Sky Island has the ability to sense that time has been stopped by someone, so now is not the time to let your imagination run wild.
After Kiana's intensive search, she finally managed to figure out Yasha's genetic blueprint just before reaching the limit of time stop.
Kiana immediately canceled the time stop and began to devote herself wholeheartedly to the project of repairing Fushe's body.
I don't know how much time passed, or if it was just a moment.
Fushe felt his body was extremely light, as if he were about to fly into the sky.
But what followed was a feeling of weakness as if sinking into a deep, weak river. These two extreme experiences, one after the other, really made Fushe feel terrible.
He wanted to get up and thank the woman in front of him, but his body went limp against his will and he collapsed to the ground.
"Feel sorry."
"Your body is currently in the recovery period. Although I have helped repair your body, the energy consumed by the treatment still comes from your own body. It is normal that you are too weak to get up right now."
"Next, we need to send them out," Zhongli said.
"That's right, but it's agreed beforehand that in order to prevent history from changing, the two of them can only come back to the future with us."
"Back to the future, which means..."
"Yes, I'm sorry, Boyang. In order to prevent history from changing, you can't go home to see your wife and children."
"this…"
This was undoubtedly a devastating blow to Boyang. The reason he had been able to hold on until now was because he still held onto a sliver of hope deep in his heart.
He hoped that his younger brother would find this place and rescue him and Fushe someday, but judging from Kiana and the Emperor's words, his fate seemed to be already determined, provided that Kiana and the others did not come.
Now he has another option. Although he can't go back to see his family, at least he survived, right?
Moreover, judging from Fushe's appearance, he needs someone to take care of him. The Emperor is usually so busy with state affairs that he probably doesn't have much time to take care of him.
As for a powerful figure like Kiana, the Emperor must have paid a high price to invite her. Even just now, the Emperor had to sign another contract to save the Fushe brothers' lives.
"While I don't know if this can be considered a consolation, your descendants are indeed still alive."
Yes, Kiana just confirmed it.
Ye Lan, whom I met in this space before, is a descendant of Bo Yang, not his younger brother.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that his younger brother never married, since he had not married before he participated in that war.
Afterwards, due to the torment of karmic obstacles, he became mentally unstable.
Therefore, only Boyang's lineage was left to continue the family line.
Fortunately, fate intervened and the Boyang family did not fall into ruin. Because of their meritorious service in the fight against the Dark Calamity, the Boyang family was promoted multiple times by the Liyue Seven Stars, and instead used this opportunity to squeeze into the upper echelons of Liyue.
"So, I'll still be able to see my descendants?"
"That's probably difficult, so in the near future your descendants will also come to this space for some reason."
"Could it be..."
"Don't worry, she's fine. She just learned the truth about your disappearance because of it."
"That puts my mind at ease. As long as the family exists, I can accept whatever I become. In fact, what other choice do I have now?"
"Please be prepared. I will then send you five hundred years into the future, where someone will arrange temporary accommodation for you."
After saying that, Kiana took a deep breath and began to teleport Boyang and Fushe away. To be honest, this was the first time she had sent people away instead of taking them with her.
In case of any unexpected event, she couldn't guarantee that the two of them would be safe and sound.
Therefore, she needed to concentrate, and Zhongli, seeing this, also consciously began to guard the surroundings to protect her.
Perhaps it was because of Zhongli's intimidation, or perhaps for some other reason. Originally, the phantoms of Boyang and Fushe before their deaths did not appear. As Kiana teleported the two away, the matter came to an end.
Then came the real business of this trip. Kiana first looked at Zhongli, and then began to draw a magic circle on the open ground.
Of course, this magic circle has no practical function; its only purpose is to make Zhongli understand where he should stand and to provide some necessary ritual.
Seeing that the magic circle was formed, Zhongli stepped forward and stood in the center of the magic circle, crossing his arms to signal Kiana to proceed with the next step.
Seeing that Zhongli was ready, Kiana closed her eyes and began to release the power within her body.
Instantly, Zhong Li felt a powerful force that did not belong to him trying to connect with him. Without hesitation, Zhong Li released the restrictions and allowed his power to fully connect with that force.
The moment the connection was established, Zhongli felt his perspective change.
He could see the past and even the future, but those things would disappear from his mind the next second.
Just then, Kiana's voice rang in his mind.
“Mr. Zhongli, what we need to do next is to use this space to recreate the Heart of God as accurately as possible. Considering that the Heart of God was made from the remains of the Third Descendant, it may be difficult to perfectly reproduce it using only this space.”
"I didn't expect you to even know this much."
“I have my sources of intelligence, but now is not the time to discuss this. I urge Mr. Zhongli to focus our attention. We only have one chance. If we miss this one, we risk attracting the attention of Sky Island, and we don’t know when we will find another opportunity.”
Upon hearing this, Zhongli fell silent and began to carefully recall the various details of the Heart of God.
Zhongli had long memorized the structure, aura, and power of the divine heart that had followed him for thousands of years.
Accompanied by Zhongli's memories and hinted at by Kiana, this space began to operate, and a divine heart shaped like a chess piece slowly began to form.
With a "ding!" sound, the Heart of God was successfully completed.
"Although it differs slightly from the original, it's almost identical," Zhongli commented.
Seeing that the Heart of God had been formed, Kiana grabbed it and closed her eyes to try to connect to the throne of God far away on Sky Island.
Following the unstable link between the Heart of God and Sky Island, Kiana's consciousness arrived inside a mysterious space.
Above them, stardust filled the air, while beneath their feet, countless tree roots meandered and twisted.
This is inside the World Tree.
For some reason, this sentence popped into Kiana's mind. Although she didn't know why she had arrived at the World Tree through the link of the Heart of God, there wasn't enough time for Kiana to think about it.
Kiana sensed the location of the divine throne while observing the space inside the World Tree. She then discovered an extremely weak consciousness existing within the World Tree.
And behind that consciousness lies the goal of my journey.
So, with a try-it-and-see attitude, Kiana went to the consciousness.
"Huh? Why is it a little girl? And her appearance..."
After seeing the appearance of the consciousness before her, Kiana asked a question.
Perhaps Kiana's movement startled the consciousness, for it opened its eyes. A curious gaze shone through its emerald green pupils, and Kiana could vaguely see a four-leaf clover pattern above them.
"You are…?"
"My name is Kiana, little friend, who are you?"
Although I don't know the other person's exact age, it's perfectly fine to call them younger!
This is one of Kiana's secret tricks for dealing with Theresa over the years.
"Kiana... I remember now."
The green-eyed girl seemed to remember something and greeted Kiana.
"Nice to meet you, or perhaps it's been a long time? Kiana, I am Buyer, or you may call me the Great Tree King."
"Great Tree King...isn't that the title of the former Grass God? Are you that Great Tree King?"
"That's right!"
"But why is your body so...small? And what do you mean by 'long time no see'? Have we met before?"
"Perhaps this is our first meeting for you, but for me we've been friends for a long time! I'm just sorry to have shown you me like this, so weak."
"It's okay! Can you tell me why you're here?"
"Of course, it's to fulfill the promise you and I made back then, Heraqti!"
Hearing that name from someone else again, Kiana's mind went completely blank. A flood of information rushed into her brain, and unable to process it all, Kiana could only utter a sound that made no sense.
"Eh?"
