The Cosmic Age: Subverting the Universe

After daybreak, the sunlight was like fine golden silk, shining through the cracks in the bamboo house and gently falling into the house. Xiao Yan slowly opened his eyes, and his hazy vision gradually focused. He saw Nalan Yanran lying quietly in his arms. Her sleeping face was like a blooming lotus, pure and beautiful.

An inexplicable throbbing surged in Xiao Yan's heart. He widened his eyes and quickly replayed the fragments of last night in his mind. He remembered that in his dream, he seemed to see Nalan Yanran's figure, and the two figures overlapped. Those vague and warm pictures made him feel dazed.

"What on earth is going on?" Xiao Yan muttered to himself. He couldn't believe that he would have such a dream. He looked down at Nalan Yanran in his arms, feeling flustered. Could it be that those scenes were not just dreams?

He slapped his cheeks hard, trying to wake himself up. "I must not be awake yet," he said to himself, but the pain on his cheeks forced him to admit that all this was real.

Xiao Yan's mood became complicated. He felt ashamed and confused. He didn't know how to face Nalan Yanran, let alone how to explain it all.

As time went by, Nalan Yanran slowly woke up. She opened her eyes and saw Xiao Yan's confused look, with a hint of surprise and shyness on her face.

Nalan Yanran looked at Xiao Yan firmly and said calmly, "I did all this voluntarily. I can raise the child myself. Just consider it as making up for the mistakes I made to you before."

Xiao Yan felt a surge of guilt and self-blame in his heart. He lowered his eyes and whispered, "I'm sorry, I thought yesterday was just a dream, and that all that sweetness was just an illusion."

Nalan Yanran gently stroked the back of his hand, her eyes revealing understanding and tolerance: "No need to say more, I understand your feelings. I don't blame you, I just hope you won't hate me anymore in the future."

Xiao Yan raised his head and stared at Nalan Yanran with burning eyes. His voice revealed firmness and determination: "I will be responsible and I will marry you. But not now. You are the leader of the Yunlan Sect and have a noble status. As for me, I still need to make a name for myself in the Jia Ma Empire. When I have enough strength and status, I will marry you in the most grand and dignified way."

On the other side, Xiao Bei's voice revealed a kind of mechanical calmness and precision: "Congratulations, my lady, you have subverted the plot of the original world and made an impossible plot appear. You have successfully obtained 1 Galaxy Coin. At the same time, you have been recognized by the guardian of the dimension world and have obtained the qualification to compete for the heart of the world."

Su Che looked a little heavy. He lowered his head, his fingers unconsciously rubbing the edge of the wine glass, and his voice was filled with self-blame: "I feel that my actions are very shameless. I actually put drugs in the wine. How can such a method be recognized by the dimensional world?"

Xiao Bei didn't care. She smiled lightly with a cunning light in her eyes: "There's nothing wrong with this, Su Che, you are too naive. In this world, not everything has to go according to the rules. Queen Medusa hated Xiao Yan to the core. How long did she hate him? But in the end, they can become a family."

Su Che raised his head, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes: "But, I always feel that this is not right. Shouldn't we respect some rules and other people's wishes more?"

Xiao Bei said seriously, "Will is often a luxury. Think about Queen Medusa. She was a queen, high and mighty, but unfortunately she was poisoned. At that time, who really respected her will? A queen had to stoop to protect a weak person in the end. Where is the rule in this?"

Su Che stopped arguing with Xiao Bei and changed the subject: "What is the Heart of the World? What is the difference between it and the Heart of Yunlan and the Heart of Emperor Yan?"

Xiao Bei's eyes sparkled with wisdom as he explained, "The Heart of Yun Lan and the Heart of Emperor Yan are just tiny branches of the Heart of the World. They represent the influence of a certain force in the world of Dou Po Cang Qiong. As long as this force exists and has a certain status in this world, it can gain corresponding power. However, the Heart of the World is completely different."

"The Heart of the World is the most fundamental and powerful source of power in this world. It ignores the influence of any force. As long as it exists in this world, you can summon everything. Whether it is powerful fighting skills, rare elixirs, or legendary beasts, as long as you have the Heart of the World, they can all be in your dimensional domain."

"Compared to the Heart of Yunlan and the Heart of Yandi, the Heart of the World has one biggest difference. That is, the Heart of Yunlan and the Heart of Yandi can only send down the world projection, while the Heart of the World can directly drag the enemy into its own dimensional world."

"Just imagine, bringing people from the magic world to a dimension without magic is like releasing fish into the desert. Wouldn't they be at the mercy of others?"

Xiao Bei talked endlessly about the power of the World Heart, but Su Che listened absent-mindedly, with a look of indifference on his face. He had no interest in Xiao Bei's story.

He stood up and approached Qin Luoluo next to him, and whispered: "Luoluo, let's go through the Xiao family's extermination plot and take Yun Yun away from Doupo World."

Qin Luoluo raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard this, and asked in confusion: “Why, are you tired of it?”

"Yeah, I'm a little tired indeed."

Qin Luoluo reached out and covered Su Che's cheek, rubbing it gently, with a gentle smile on her face. She nodded and said, "Okay, after this plot, we will go to take the mercenary mission and change the environment to relax."

Then, Qin Luoluo opened his mouth and ordered: "Xiao Susu, help us find out when the Xiao family will be exterminated."

When Su Che heard the name, he looked at Qin Luoluo with curiosity and asked, "Who is Xiao Susu?"

Qin Luoluo seemed to notice Su Che's curiosity. She smiled and said, "Little Su Su is my smart assistant."

As soon as he finished speaking, a cute cartoon version of Su Che suddenly appeared, surprising him. This little Su Su looked very similar to him, only more lovely and cute.

Su Che looked at this sudden "self" and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Qin Luoluo looked at Su Che's reaction and couldn't help laughing out loud.

Little Susu announced in its unique mechanical voice: "After Yunling was destroyed, there were still worshippers of the Soul Palace in the Yunlan Sect. They originally planned to seize the Ancient Emperor Jade from the Xiao family and then hand it over to the Soul Palace as a shortcut to enter the upper class. However, due to Su Che's intervention, the outside world generally believed that the Xiao family and the Yunlan Sect had formed an alliance, which made the worshippers of the Soul Palace give up the plan to directly attack the Xiao family.

But at the same time, the Soul Palace also realized the threat of Xiao Yan. They were worried that if Xiao Yan continued to maintain a marriage relationship with Yunlan Sect, it would have a serious impact on their plans. Therefore, the Soul Palace decided to expose their followers in Yunlan Sect in advance, carry out an inhumane massacre of the Xiao family, and put the blame on Yunlan Sect, trying to cause a conflict between the two families.

According to the calculation of the expansion of time curvature, the Soul Palace will massacre the Xiao family in three days."
