God's Gift

In the silent darkness, time passed very quietly, and the flames of the dark stars were burning.

Yu Youyou and Anxing had both slept for thousands of years. Darkness and silence were the most familiar things to them, but it had become a little difficult for Yu Youyou now.

Although the darkness obscured her perception, Yu Youyou deeply experienced what it meant to feel like every second felt like an age.

After she had tied countless bows, leaving her clothes with several shallow wrinkles, she finally yawned and looked up at Dark Star.

"How long has it been now?"

“I don’t know.” An Xing was resting with his eyes closed. He opened one eye after hearing Yu Youyou’s voice. “According to the days in the human world, it should have been a few hundred days.”

Yu Youyou's eyes suddenly widened, and she stood up from the ground. She walked to Dark Star, looked at it in disbelief, and repeated:

"how long?"

"A few hundred days." An Xing looked at Yu Youyou's ignorant look and snorted disdainfully, "According to the time it takes for the Earth to revolve around the sun, it should be more than a year."

"More than a year?" Yu Youyou's hands at her side gradually clenched. She just felt that every second seemed like a year, but she didn't expect that in fact, the years seemed like seconds.

An Xing looked at Yu Youyou's astonished eyes and rolled his eyes at her, "Why are you so surprised?"

"Where do you think this place is? This is the space I built. How can it be repaired so easily?"

Yu Youyou looked at Anxing with a look of pride and disdain. After staring at Anxing for a long time, she raised her hand and punched Anxing.

Dark Star was caught off guard, and Yu Youyou's fist had already landed on its face. Its face was dented and hit the wall of space, then bounced back to the opposite wall.

After going back and forth like this for a few times, Dark Star finally stopped, looked at Yu Youyou angrily, and cursed loudly:

"Yu Youyou, how dare you hit me!"

"What's there to be afraid of?" Yu Youyou pointed her fist at Anxing, staring at him without avoiding his gaze, "I'm going to hit you."

Seeing Yu Youyou roaring, Anxing rushed towards Yu Youyou with all his strength. Before he was about to hit Yu Youyou, Yu Youyou held him down.

Dark Star was so angry that it opened its mouth and bit Yu Youyou's wrist. The flames on its body burned Yu Youyou's fair skin into a charred red.

Yu Youyou took a deep breath and pressed Dark Star down with her backhand. A thick dark cloud gathered behind her, pouring down heavy rain on the man and the stone, and threatened:

"Tell the intelligent computer to open the channel quickly, otherwise I will make sure you won't be able to light a fire in the future."

Dark Star naturally refused, and bit Yu Youyou's wrist tightly, releasing even more fierce flames.

"How dare you! Don't I want to go out? If you have the guts, go tell the intelligent brain to hurry up!"

Yu Youyou held Anxing with her legs, stretched out her other hand to pry open Anxing's mouth, and threatened: "You scream it."

"I won't! Why should I take you out!" Dark Star retorted angrily, and Yu Youyou punched it immediately.

The man and the stone wrestled with each other. After an unknown amount of time, the flames on Dark Star's body were completely extinguished. Black carbon ash fell to the ground, and wisps of white smoke rose from Dark Star's body.

The silk and satin on Yu Youyou's body was burned with several holes, and blisters appeared on the exposed skin.

Dark Star lay on the ground in a daze, looking at the wisps of white smoke rising from his body, and cursed breathlessly: "You insidious and cunning fish!"

Yu Youyou healed the wounds on her body and grinned, "You are the one who is insidious and cunning, Broken Stone."

An Xing was furious and was about to get up from the ground to bite Yu Youyou, but was kicked away by Yu Youyou.

"I will kill you sooner or later!" Anxing rolled in the corner for a few times, glared at Yu Youyou, and then quietly approached the wall, muttering something.

Yu Youyou looked at Dark Star's sneaky look and shrunk her lips. "If I can't get out, I won't let you out either."

An Xing's body stiffened. After thinking for a long time, he rolled on the ground as if nothing had happened, turned over and looked at Yu Youyou with a sidelong glance.

"It says soon."

"Oh." Yu Youyou nodded, lowered her head and began to pull out her tattered clothes. She touched her stomach again and belatedly remembered something, "Does this mean that I haven't eaten for more than a year?"

Dark Star replied unhappily, "You don't need to eat."

"But I am a human now." Yu Youyou widened her eyes, covered her chest, and shouted in grief and anger, "Humans will die if they don't eat for a few days."

“Really?!” An Xing looked at Yu Youyou in shock, rolled to Yu Youyou’s side, and said anxiously: “Then you should die soon!”

Yu Youyou, who was originally full of energy, quickly became listless, as if she was terminally ill. She fell to the ground with her eyes closed, dying.

An Xing looked at Yu Youyou's closed eyes without any response, and his face gradually brightened with a smile. He was about to cheer, when Yu Youyou raised his hand and pressed it under his palm.

Anxing struggled under Yu Youyou's palm and heard Yu Youyou's cold voice.

"Hurry up and have the intelligent brain build a channel. If I starve to death, you won't survive either."

"You vicious fish!" Anxing was furious. He opened his mouth to bite Yu Youyou's palm again, but was held back by her again.

The rapidly passing time took its toll on the body, and sleepiness and fatigue set in slowly. Yu Youyou slowly closed her eyes, ignoring how Dark Star struggled.

After struggling for a long time, Dark Star was too tired to lie down.

The dark space fell silent again. After an unknown amount of time, Yu Youyou suddenly opened her eyes, looked at Anxing, who was mumbling in his sleep, and gradually frowned.

She bent down, moved closer to Dark Star, and listened carefully to what Dark Star was saying.

“Hahahaha…all of you die!”

Yu Youyou's expression froze for a moment. She looked at Anxing, who had a lewd look on his face, twitched the corners of her mouth, raised her hand and slapped Anxing.

Dark Star was still in a dream. After being slapped by Yu Youyou, its mouth twisted to the side and it sneered.

"You are just a little thief, and you still want to defeat me..."

"I am the king of the universe, I will destroy you completely!"

Yu Youyou looked at Dark Star with disdain. Just as she was about to wake it up, she heard the cold mechanical sound of the intelligent computer coming from the surroundings.

"The space channel has been established successfully, please leave as soon as possible."

Yu Youyou looked up and saw that the originally seamless wall of space began to tear a crack. Without the illumination of the dark star, the crack became even darker.

She shook off the Dark Star that was biting her finger, stood up and walked towards the crack. Looking at the endless darkness, she raised her foot to test inside, and circles of ripples appeared under her feet.

"Youyou..."

A familiar voice came from outside. Yu Youyou looked at the endless darkness, tilted her head, and was a little confused.

Lu Keming?

The sound was unclear, like a low sigh, and gradually disappeared.

Yu Youyou listened to the sound gradually fading away, and without hesitation, she stepped into the crack and ran towards the source of the sound.
