Ye Zhiyan saw the "past" through the World Tree.

She went back to when Zandik divided "Ye Zhiyan" into its main body and its separate body.

Her young body curled up into a ball, not knowing what she was dreaming about.

Ye Zhiyan suddenly appeared.

She stood behind Zendik, but maybe it was because he was too excited that Zendik didn't notice it.

His face suddenly burst into wild excitement: "Successful...successful! What a magical life...ha!"

"What succeeded?" She laughed, and after Zandik turned around suddenly and vigilantly, she picked up the knife on the table and put it on his neck.

Zendik's scarlet eyes narrowed slightly: "Who are you?"

He lied to his mentor, saying that he wanted to retreat for some time to study his new theory. His mentor also asked: "What is your topic?" 】

Zendik: [Just studying the similarities and differences between mushrooms and plankton, don't worry. 】

[Mushroom beast...Zandik, you have to be careful. If you can't defeat it, call the Disciplinary Officer immediately. 】

【Of course I know. 】

[Also, don’t think about the idea you proposed last time. It’s too crazy to experiment on human bodies. If you take this step, it is absolutely impossible for the Order to tolerate such a mistake. 】His mentor said earnestly, "You are a genius, but you must also remember..."

[Yes, of course I remember. 】Zandik responded casually.

And he kept saying "remember", but "remember" is one thing and "obey" is another.

There is a person lying in his laboratory right now.

But he thought that the Order Council had not discovered it yet.

So...who is this person?

Looking at his hateful face, Ye Zhiyan smiled.

"I might as well tell you that I am the future of this child on the bed." She smiled. "You have done a lot of evil things in the future that are outrageous to both humans and gods, so I came back to the present to kill you and put an end to it."

Zendic's pupils shrank suddenly.

Then he pretended to be pitiful: "But I haven't done anything yet, right? Please help me now, maybe I will get better?"

Ye Zhiyan: "Forget it, saving you makes me sick to my stomach."

Zandik realized that his death was imminent.

"...What a pity." He squinted his eyes, "Do I have to be killed by you? My research has not been completed yet."

"You mean slice studies?"

Zandik looked at her, with a dark shadow in his eyes.

Finally, he smiled: "Yeah, you know so clearly, is it because I made it in the future?"

Ye Zhiyan stabbed the blade into his neck without any trouble, and blood spurted out from his neck instantly.

Zandik breathed rapidly for a moment, and then his face slowly turned crazy: "Let's make a deal. I will give you the slicing technology, and you--"

Ye Zhiyan pushed away his slowly falling body with an expressionless expression.

Zendik died too easily, so easily that it's hard to believe.

The main body that had just been sliced ​​by him hadn't woken up yet, but the clone had already woken up.

She sat up separately, and with just one glance, she tightened her pupils in shock.

"...W-what's going on?"

The clone raised its eyes and met Ye Zhiyan's gentle gaze.

"Don't be afraid." Ye Zhiyan said, "I killed Zendik, but I'm not sure if he still has his own slice... His slicing technology is not mature, and you are not completely separated."

"Listen to Ye Zhiyan, Zandik took away part of the memory of the original body, as well as the power blessed by the earth veins in you... She will not remember that you are a clone, but you still have a memory."

She hugged her younger self.

"Go and look for it. As expected, you will find a seedling in Zandik's laboratory. Then, put a copy of the memory in it. You can do it, right?"

The young Ye Zhiyan's clone did not recognize the person in front of him.

But because of some resonance in her soul, she subconsciously believed in the person in front of her, so she agreed without hesitation.

"Yes, I can do it!" She replied with firm eyes.

"...That's good." Ye Zhiyan murmured.

The clone asked her: "Isn't this person already dead? Why are you still doing this?"

Ye Zhiyan sighed: "I'm afraid he is also a 'separate' sliced ​​out, do you understand?"

Xiaoye Zhiyan's body nodded in understanding.

"Wait a minute, but seal a copy of the memory and put it in the seedling. If there really is another Zendik, will he find out?"

Ye Zhiyan was startled.

At this moment, she suddenly connected everything, and finally understood where some details came from.

"Then..." She spoke dryly, wrote a few words on Xiaoye Zhiyan's separate hand, and then used grass elemental power to briefly make them visible——

[This is the fifth year since I came to the continent of Teyvat, and Zandik knows that I am special]

"What text is this?"

"It's extraterrestrial knowledge that you don't have to understand, but your body will understand it." Ye Zhiyan said, "You only need to find the seedlings hidden by Zendic, and then write these on them, and seal the memory in this string of characters Inside. The power of the grass element will cover the writing,...Only in this way will I remember everything in the future."

All the memories of the split were copied and sealed in the forbidden text of the World Tree sapling. Zandik could not decipher such text.

That is something from another world. To this world itself, it is a kind of "forbidden knowledge" that will pollute the soul.

The clone nodded blankly: "I understand."

Ye Zhiyan has a special physique. She has received the blessing of the earth's veins and can briefly communicate with the World Tree without divine power. But she knew that part of her power had been separated by the doctor, and she could not stay in the "past" for long.

She had to leave soon, and she had no time to solve many things, so she had to tell the only "part of Xiaoye Zhiyan" who was awake.

"Listen, there's one more thing - if that day is really unavoidable, and you are locked up in a deep sleep by Zendik somewhere, and the main body agrees to cooperate with Zendik in the experiment... remember to set the forbidden words."

"The forbidden word is [like Linney]."

The clone opened its eyes slightly: "Why? Who is Linny?"

"Yes, that's it..." Ye Zhiyan murmured, "Because you don't know each other, you will definitely realize something is wrong once the forbidden words are triggered."

Because we don't know each other, we can't have feelings for him, so how can we talk about liking him? Such a forbidden word was set in advance before meeting him. If the ontology really inevitably started to cooperate with the remaining slices of Zandik regarding time and space, she should realize that this was a reminder from her future self.

Ye Zhiyan still had a lot to do. She also wanted to find out if Zendic really had another slice. But before she even had time to wait for the body of Xiao Ye Zhiyan, who had just been sliced ​​by Zendic, to wake up, she felt a burst of pain. Huge pull.

Under the panicked gaze of the clone, Ye Zhiyan's figure disappeared in time.

When he landed again, Ye Zhiyan went to check the place just now, only to find that it had been abandoned for a long time.

Zandik's body, her two young children, as well as the important instruments and data of the experiment have all disappeared.

Ye Zhiyan suddenly realized that his guess was correct.

——Zandik would treat himself as an experiment.

She remembered that in her original memory, he was "No. 1" and her childhood self was "No. 17".

So he must have done the slice experiment on himself.

Seeing this scene, she almost didn't need to guess. It was definitely Zandik's slice who knew that Ye Zhiyan, a person from the future, came specifically to kill him.

Because he knew that his experimental subjects would go back in time to kill him in the future, so...

Zendik needs to master time and space so urgently.

Only then will she reach the so-called cooperation with "Xiao Ye's Word Essence". When she can truly observe the future and retain her memory during the experiment, Zendik will also think of taking advantage first - before she comes to find her again in the future. Kill her as a child.

In this way, he will not die and can take advantage of the situation to take away the relevant experimental data in Ye Zhiyan's main body memory.

Ye Zhiyan figured it out.

Everything is a closed loop.

But she came anyway.

She first went to Xumi City, asked to see the Great Merciful Tree King, and then told the Tree King that Zendik secretly made a "fake tree species" and buried it very close to the World Tree to absorb energy.

Sure enough, King Daci Shu looked solemn and took this matter very seriously, and sent many discipline officials to hunt him down.

Ye Zhiyan still remembered where the locations Zendic had moved to, and she happily provided several locations to the Disciplinary Officer.

The Disciplinary Officer will arrive when Zandik points the knife at Xiaoye Zhiyan's body, and then take him away.

But this is still not safe.

——Zandik may not have just made a slice for himself.

So she needed an opportunity, an opportunity that would not kill Zendik and ensure that only his body existed alone.

And on the open floating window, Ye Zhiyan found the opportunity.

She squinted her eyes and suddenly had a guess in her mind.
