God's Gift

The first year after Yu Youyou left.

The world is merging, and the story continues across different timelines.

With no more mutated creatures in the world, Ye Li brought his parents back from the Abyss Factory, and Area E was no longer under the surveillance of the Blue Dragon.

These companions who fought side by side to collect the sparks of fire and defeat the Dark Star were bestowed with the title of heroes, and their story was recorded in the annals of the continent and passed down through generations.

Lu Keming did not return to the Lu family. Instead, he built a wooden house on the cliff where Yu Youyou had left and stayed there alone.

Shen Minghua and his friends often came to visit Lu Keming.

He seemed too normal, and hadn't shed a single tear since, which only made them more terrified.

The second year after Yu Youyou left.

Ye Li married Shen Minghua.

Lu Keming left the cliff for the first time to attend their wedding.

The wedding was grand, like the wedding of a princess and prince at the end of a fairy tale.

It was as grand as his wedding to Yu Youyou back then.

The third year since Yu Youyou left

Lu Keming planted a patch of white lilies of the valley on the cliff.

Ye Li and Shen Minghua had a lovely daughter named Ye Yu, and they often brought her to the cliff.

Ye Yu loved the lilies of the valley blooming on the cliff. At that time, before her teeth had even sprouted, she pointed to a patch of lilies of the valley swaying in the wind and giggled non-stop.

It has been four years since Yu Youyou left.

Lu Siyi came to the cliff and persuaded Lu Keming to go home.

He sat with Lu Keming on the edge of the cliff for a whole day, watching the sun set and the moon rise. Then he watched the moon set and the sun rise again.

This made Louis feel as if he had returned to the time when he lost his wife.

Lu Siyi looked at Lu Keming and saw an empty shell. He could no longer contain any emotions, whether it was joy, sadness, anger, or pain... all of them had drifted away from his body.

Lu Siyi wanted to apologize to Lu Keming and tell him that he hadn't intentionally forgotten him in Zone E back then.

Telling him about his wife's death and the family's internal strife distracted him, preventing him from finding him in time.

Tell him that he knew from the beginning that Dark Star could not resurrect his wife, and that he was planning to devour Dark Star.

But these words were not spoken at the time, and it seems pointless to bring them up now.

Louis eventually returned to the Louis family home alone.

It's been five years since Yu Youyou left.

Fang Ziang left home, packed his bags, and went on adventures around the world.

The coward of the past has now become a brave traveler.

It has been six years since Yu Youyou left.

After Luce passed away, Anthony took over the Luce family and Blue Dragon.

It's been ten years since Yu Youyou left.

Godot died.

The twentieth year since Yu Youyou left.

Ye Yu enrolls in the Songbird Academy, and a new story begins.

Fifty years since Yu Youyou left.

Fang Ziang's parents passed away.

In the same year, Fang Zi'ang accidentally fell off a cliff during an expedition and his body was never recovered.

Eighty years since Yu Youyou left.

Shen Minghua has passed away.

Eighty-two years after Yu Youyou left.

Ye Li passed away.

Ninety years since Yu Youyou left.

Carmelo Anthony has passed away.

The first hundred years since Yu Youyou left.

The wooden house on the edge of the cliff collapsed.

Lu Keming finally left the wooden house and returned to the Lu family castle.

The two hundred years since Yu Youyou left...

The first thousand years since Yu Youyou left...

The scale of time changes from minutes to hours, hours to days, days to years, years to decades, decades to centuries, and centuries to millennia.

Lu Keming couldn't remember the time.

He forgot how many sunsets he had watched and how many sunrises he had waited for.

Fang Zi'ang remained unmarried his entire life, and the Fang family line died out. He watched as Ye Li and Shen Minghua's child had children, and those children had children...

Even at the very end, these children didn't know who Lu Keming was.

Stories of life and death unfold on this land every day. Life is short, coming and going, endlessly repeating itself. Individual joys and sorrows become insignificant in the cycle of life.

Lu Keming began to suspect that she had lied to him again.

She said their lives were intertwined, and if he died, she would die too.

But why is it that she died while he is still alive?

In the memories of past Ossi that he saw through the divine breath she left behind, they did indeed die along with their lovers.

But never before has such a situation occurred: a lover who should have only a short life gained immortality, while Oshi, who could have lived forever, died first.

If the contract is unilateral and only binds Oshi.

He thought that perhaps at that moment, he should die with her.

Instead of waiting hopelessly day after day in this world.

But he still dared not die, fearing that if he died, Yu Youyou would never come back.

But hope gradually faded, and his heart grew numb with torment. He finally understood that immortality was not a reward, but a punishment.

All the memories of her replayed in his mind, like a movie he had watched tens of thousands of times. Her face, her hair, her eyes, the tone of her voice, the way she walked, the curve of her lips when she ate—every detail of her was magnified infinitely and etched into every inch of his soul.

In the end, he gradually forgot who he was, but he still remembered her name.

His mind was like a string of code repeating endlessly: if he hadn't met Yu Youyou back then, if he hadn't made a contract with Yu Youyou, if he hadn't swallowed the Dark Star, if Yu Youyou hadn't given him her divine breath, would she have had to end up like this?

He mentally calculated countless possible outcomes.

Finally, he remembered the time tunnel.

When he forgot his own name, he finally opened the time portal.

He saw her again.
