Back to the Future 1999: Raining at the Same Time

After watching the silver-haired figure disappear in the dark rain, the golden lion appeared again and stood behind Chen Xi.

"king……"

The lion king knelt on the ground and lowered his head over Chen Xi's chest.

"My subordinate lacked the ability. After multiple transformations after awakening, he consumed all his energy and fell into a deep sleep."

"When Miss Anna disappeared, I was unable to appear in time to stop her, and I failed the King's trust..."

Chen Xi looked down at the "big cat" in front of him with an angry expression. Under the heavy rain, the mane symbolizing the lion king stuck to his skin obediently, shrinking his body a lot.

"stand up."

"king……"

"stand up!"

Li Chi slowly raised his head, but Chen Xi held his face in his hands and stared at him with eyes that seemed to be spitting fire.

"Li Chi, remember this: from the day you were awakened by me, Chen Xi, you have been my family! I don't care what you like to call me. But..."

"Stop saying such silly things as dying to atone for your sins!"

The burning gaze pierced into Li Ya's heart, and a feeling of shame made him unconsciously lower his head again.

"Yes……!"

As the words fell, Chen Xi fell to the ground as if he had been separated from his body. Dao Wu and An Ma, who had become one, tried their best but failed to hold him back.

On this night swept by heavy rain, a young boy closed his eyes in the midst of struggle...

When he woke up again, the sun had already set. He was still surrounded by a warm feeling that made him feel a little at ease. He groped around and found Li Chi's solid and soft body. In his arms, Dao Wu and Anma were still sleeping quietly.

However, as Chen Xi woke up, the three of them quickly woke up from their sleep.

"Master." "Chenxi." "King."

Chen Xi, who only had one arm, tried his best to hold them in his arms to stop them from saying anything else. He buried his face deeply in their embrace, and tears fell silently. He tried his best to suppress them so that not even a ripple of sound could be heard.

After a long time, Chen Xi slowly loosened his arms and sat on the ground with lifeless eyes.

Is escaping from the hands of reshaping really the right choice?

Shivering for no reason, Chen Xi shook his head, stood up and walked step by step into the depths of the forest.

No matter what, he had already escaped. If Arcana knew that he was not dead, he would definitely find him at all costs. Every time he passed through the rainstorm, the aura of mysticism would rise sharply and then be captured by the Hand of Reshaping.

Therefore, this forest that can block the atmosphere of mysticism has become the best hiding place at this time.

Not only did this forest protect Orito'o's command post in the beginning, but it will now shelter another from an unexpected pursuit.

After finding an open area, Chen Xi stopped, scratched his empty sleeves, and smiled self-deprecatingly. His hands were stained with blood wet from the rain, emitting an unpleasant smell.

"It's really embarrassing."

Am I alone again?...

Chen Xi quickly threw away the dangerous thoughts in his mind and officially began his life in the jungle.

A river just shared a part of itself in this open space. Chen Xi took off his clothes and began to wash his body.

Under the moonlight, the boy's muscle lines are clearly visible.

Long days of training have made his body much stronger than before. Six obvious abdominal muscles are imprinted on his abdomen, and his toned arms make his body look like a perfect work of art. Even the loss of an arm cannot affect his overall beauty.

It was obvious that the boy in the river had neither the energy nor the desire to appreciate his own flesh. His remaining right hand meticulously wiped every inch of his skin, not a single new muscle bulge drawing his attention. But...

When Chen Xi touched his missing left shoulder, all his movements stopped. After hesitating for a moment, he began to wash his body again.

"I'm really not used to this. I don't know if it will grow back in the future."

He shook his empty left shoulder and patted it playfully.

"It seems like it could be a pretty new musical instrument, don't you think, Sword Dance?"

The silver blade that appeared behind Chen Xi at some point flew stiffly in front of Chen Xi.

"I'm fine. Thank you for your concern. Go back and tell Anna... Anma, you and her stay in the tree tonight. I'll go out and find some materials. We'll build the house tomorrow."

He also washed his clothes and put them on wetly. Chen Xi picked up Anma from the ground with lifeless eyes, tied her and Daowu together and hung them on the tree.

"Wait for me here, okay? I'll be back soon."

"Owner……"

"Shh, don't talk. The master likes Anma who listens to the master the most."

"Anma doesn't want to be abandoned by her master for being disobedient, right?"

Master... didn't you say you would never be separated from us? Master... didn't you say we are a family forever? Master...

Where is the gentle light in your eyes?

……

It was a hand, a hand that was both familiar and unfamiliar to the snow girl.

She dreamed of that hand caressing her head countless times. As she grew older in the dreams, the caressing technique gradually became playful.

But the only thing that remains unchanged is the gentle smile on that person's face.

"Xue Ji, do you believe in reincarnation..."

The ceiling, it's the same again. Every time that person said this, the Snow Girl would naturally wake up from her dream.

The face of the person in the dream is sometimes real and sometimes blurry. What remains unchanged is that every time I wake up from the dream, my face will be flushed and my heartbeat will be slightly faster.

But before she could recall carefully what he looked like in her dream, a strange wave came from the forest - there was an invasion by outsiders!

……

The hand coated with wind blades chopped down a tree, cut it, broke it, and carved it into the shape he needed. Chen Xi continued to move on to the next victim tree.

Now that we have decided to live here, cutting down trees and building houses is definitely necessary.

Chen Xi threw himself into the work numbly, trying to forget the pain. He was afraid that if he stopped, Anna's blushing face would appear before his eyes during the few short days they spent together.

"Hiss, ha, huh—"

A few white lights suddenly lit up in the dark forest, flickering to Chen Xi's feet.

It was not until the other's hairy body touched Chen Xi's body that he looked down and noticed these little Cabancru gathered together and rubbing against his trouser legs.

Looking around, in the pitch-black night, it seemed that there were little creatures everywhere with eyes as bright as flashlights.

But in such an environment, Chen Xi was not afraid at all. Instead, he felt a soft spot in his heart being touched because of the intimate little guy at his feet.

Just when he was about to bend over and touch these little guys, suddenly for some unknown reason, all the demons retreated, and an indescribable singing was heard in the originally silent forest.

The singing was clear and bright, but a chill pierced through his heart. When Chen Xi came back to his senses from the singing, he was surprised to find that he had already clenched the dagger in his hand.

Suddenly at some point, the forest became completely quiet. The hissing and crackling sounds of the demons disappeared, and the rustling of leaves ceased.

Between heaven and earth, it was so quiet that Chen Xi could only hear his own heartbeat.

A terrifying chill suddenly gripped his spinal cord and grabbed it hard. A chilly wind blew at the right time, blurring Chen Xi's vision.

When he opened his eyes again, his feet were frozen in the blood-stained mud.

"Damn it!"

A wind blade was swung out, but it did not leave any scars, as if the intention was to keep him here forever today.

"Ah! Ah! Break it for me!"

The continuous attacks seemed like a joke, lightly shaving off a thin layer of frost. If this were summer, it would be perfect material for shaved ice. But now...

Another gust of cold wind!

What appeared in front of Chen Xi was a demon whose name could not be remembered.

Her height, over two meters, meant that even those who weren't short in front of her only reached her navel. Her long, snow-white hair cascaded down like a waterfall, shrouded in a soft, cool mist. A hazy veil nestled within a white wreath made it impossible to glimpse her features.

He bent down and looked directly at Chen Xi, giving him the opportunity to see clearly what was in the cradle in the demon's arms - an extremely beautiful ice crystal!

But her aura is like that of a lonely and cold ice queen, looking down at everything in the world from a high position.

Qingling's cold and murderous eyes passed through the veil and fell into Chenxi's eyes. As if to confirm something, she stretched out her hand with sharp claws and lifted Chenxi's face.

Then he casually swung it away, and his sharp claws even scratched Chen Xi's chin.

The ice under her feet gradually disappeared, and she turned and walked into the depths of the forest, followed by countless demons who disappeared silently into the dark night.
