Hearing the ball calling her, Nangong Ya couldn't help but stretch out a hand from under her sleeve and gently touch it with her fingers.

hum-

The sphere was activated instantly, decomposing from Nangong Ya's fingertips and transforming into several white energy streams that converged on Nangong Ya's forehead.

This scene only lasted about three seconds. By the time Li Qingya reacted and wanted to raise her hand to grab the ball, it had already completely merged into Nangong Ya's body.

After completing the fusion, Li Qingya's movements paused. Nangong Ya felt a little uncomfortable and held her forehead, then was surprised to find that everything around her had stopped.

"I haven't slept so comfortably in a long time. Good morning, host."

At this moment, the voice of the system sounded in Nangong Ya's ears, and a virtual cartoon flower image appeared in front of Nangong Ya, with cartoon facial features inside the flower pattern.

"System, are you alive?!"

Nangong Ya looked at the flowers in front of her with surprise.

This image of the system seemed to be set by the system itself before its death...

"It's alive, but the system doesn't have the concept of death. It just ran out of energy and shut down."

The system simply responded to Nangong Ya and gave a brief explanation.

"But didn't you say that we have to wait until the travelers have traveled through the seven kingdoms before we can restart? How come it's so early?"

Suppressing the excitement in her heart, Nangong Ya couldn't help but reach out and grab the cartoon flower in front of her and asked.

"It's more than ten years faster than expected. The main reason is that the system absorbed the soul of the demon god as nutrients, which accelerated the restart time a little bit."

The system struggled out of Nangong Ya's hands, and then explained.

"Absorbed the soul of the demon god as nourishment... Which demon god?"

Nangong Ya looked at the system in confusion. After all, quite a lot of demons died on Liyue land.

"Ding Di, it's the end of King Chen."

"...???"

"Who?!"

Hearing the system's answer, Nangong Ya's eyes widened, and she quickly grabbed the flower and held it tightly in her hand.

"Ding Di, it's the end of King Chen."

The system had no choice but to repeat itself, but as soon as it finished speaking, Nangong Ya had already pulled it hard, pulling the cartoon-like flower shape into a long strip.

"You actually swallowed Guizhong's soul. I was wondering why I couldn't find it in Guiliyuan for such a long time! Spit it out quickly! Otherwise, just turn off your phone now!"

Pulling the virtual image simulated by the system into a long strip, Nangong Ya angrily ordered the system.

"Host, please don't get excited. The soul I absorbed was split by her on her own initiative. She originally wanted to hide part of the soul inside the system, but failed."

The system kept flying in the air in a long strip shape and quickly explained to Nangong Ya.

"After all, if a piece of meat suddenly flies to your mouth while you are sleeping, you would be doing it a disservice if you don't eat it."

"...?"

After hearing the system's explanation, Nangong Ya was slightly relieved, but the next sentence made her want to beat up this damn system.

"You dog system, neither you nor Guizhong must die today, or I can revive her just by touching her soul!"

Nangong Ya unceremoniously took out the Dream of Green Heaven and Earth and aimed it at the long cartoon flower in the air.

"Ahem, host, please wait a moment... Ahem, phew——!"

The cartoon flower recovered from its long strip shape, coughed lightly, said something to Nangong Ya, then turned sideways and flew to the side, spitting out a delicate mechanism core.

"That guy knew that the system's voice was encrypted by playing it in reverse, so he installed a reverse playback device for me. Otherwise, others would not be able to understand what the system said before it was integrated."

The cartoon flower looked at the mechanism core that was spit out and explained to Nangong Ya.

At this time, Nangong Ya also recalled the image of Guizhonglu. In that image, the sound of the system was indeed played in reverse.

And it is precisely because of this core mechanism that plays back sound that Li Qingya can understand the system's call to the host.

"Huh, I finally recovered some energy. Since the host wants it, the system will help you once. However, it is only once, and the burden needs to be borne by the host himself."

After spitting out the core of the mechanism, the system seemed to be much more comfortable. Then the shape of the cartoon flower changed and eventually turned into a huge clock. The surrounding environment also changed from the remote location of the Church Court to a pure black space.

[Dear host, you have accumulated a total of purification energy over the years. Would you like to use it to activate the time-space shuttle function? ]

[Warning: All the history changed by the time-space shuttle function will cause the host to bear a certain burden. ]

A virtual screen unfolded in front of the clock, reminding Nangong Ya like this.

Obviously, the system, which had already absorbed Guizhong's soul as energy, had no other way to restore her, so it simply used a function that was more useful than modifying the World Tree.

"Time travel? Are you asking me to go back in time to save Guizhong?"

After seeing clearly what was displayed on the virtual screen, Nangong Ya tilted her head and asked the system.

"correct."

The sound of the system came from inside the clock.

"It's not impossible. As long as I commit suicide and grow up, my fighting power will definitely be enough..."

"But system, if Guizhong hadn't died, you wouldn't be able to absorb her soul and activate it in advance, and I wouldn't be able to use time travel now. Wouldn't this form a paradox?"

Nangong Ya thought about it and was confident in her fighting ability when she grew up, but she thought of another problem.

"Please rest assured, host. The ability to modify time and space is ineffective against the system, so there will be no paradox. If it dares to come to the system, it will be absorbed."

The system said this very confidently, and even proudly conjured up two hands to pat its own clock face.

"Okay, I believe you, let's do it."

Seeing that the system was so confident, Nangong Ya had no choice but to nod.

"Ding, the purification energy has been consumed successfully, and the time-space shuttle function has been activated."

"Back in time..."

Under Nangong Ya's curious gaze, the hands of the huge clock began to rotate rapidly counterclockwise.

The white light illuminated the originally black space, and a pure white space-time channel unfolded in front of Nangong Ya.

Nangong Ya had a feeling that as long as she walked in, she could go back to the past...

But just as she walked forward, an unclear shadow suddenly blocked Nangong Ya's way.

"Are you sure you want to go forward?"

The shadow whose appearance could not be seen clearly confirmed with Nangong Ya.

"If you continue to move forward, it will bring irreversible impact to Teyvat. If you are willing to bear all the consequences, please move forward."

Without waiting for Nangong Ya to ask who she was, the shadow slowly disappeared into the space-time channel.

"What consequences? I don't understand. Just try not to change history..."

Scratching his head in confusion, Nangong Ya muttered something in his heart, but continued to walk forward and entered the space-time channel.
