Tomb Robber: Oops, I think I met a tomb robber.

"Tsk, stingy."

Tu Lu couldn't help but grumble at Xie Yuchen's reaction. Xie Yuchen's forehead suddenly bulged with veins when he heard that. He suppressed his anger and said in a low voice, "I was just about to ask you, why did you two change back? And baby, how did she change back? You two, come to the living room right now, we need to have a good talk!"

Wu Xie and Hei Xia Zi, who had just stuffed the three people back into their room, suddenly stopped. They looked at each other, turned around, opened the door and pulled the three people out again - they still had to let them hear this.

Tu Lu and Wu Mian were not too panicked when they were questioned by Xie Yuchen. They just paused for a moment, turned around and walked towards the stairs. Seeing this, Xie Yuchen and others also followed.

To be honest, the two of them would have just given a brief explanation here, but that didn't work, because in addition to answering the questions asked by Li Yuchen, they also had to talk about how to comfort Qiuyue in the future. After all, the group of people she thought of as her lovers were now heading towards death.

"Snapped."

At one o'clock in the morning, the lights in the dark living room were turned on again. Except for Fatty Wang, Yuncai and Qiuyue, everyone else gathered together. They each found a place to sit down, ready to start this late-night meeting.

"Tell me, baby, how did you change back? Did you two do something? Or did baby realize that you two are not Zhang Qiling and Xiao Fubao?"

As soon as he sat down, Xie Yuchen asked, his eyes directed at the two people opposite him, his brows slightly furrowed.

"It's Qinglian. Xiao Fubao sent me a small ball today. Inside the ball was Qinglian. When I accidentally opened it, Qinglian came out and turned the baby back into an adult."

Wumian gave an immediate answer to Xie Yuchen's question, and before Xie Yuchen could ask further, he continued, "As for why we changed back, it's because we don't want to face her with someone else's face anymore."

There was a hint of bitterness on his face, and he said in a self-deprecating tone, "For thousands of years, the two of us have loved her, but she has never seen us and doesn't even know we exist. I can't stand it anymore."

As soon as these words were spoken, the few people who were originally a little angry at the two people for changing back without their permission suddenly fell silent and could not say anything else.

Ah, indeed, they almost forgot that Tu Lu and Wu Mian had never existed in Qiu Yue's eyes.

They have endured for thousands of years, and now they can't stand it and are exposed. We can't blame them. After all, if it were them, they would have been exposed as early as a thousand years ago in the Tang Dynasty.

"I see. So now, Baby already knows about the existence of you two, right? Is there anything else? Did she ask why you became Brother and Fu Bao?"

Xie Yuchen put away his blaming tone and asked other questions instead - he had no right to question them because they had endured enough. Even if these two people had done something wrong back then, they had already made up for it more than enough.

"Well, she already knows us. We've told her about everyone we've transformed into before."

Wumian roughly repeated what he had just told Qiuyue, and the few people who were originally shocked immediately felt relieved.

Fortunately, the two of them were still very sensible and did not say anything they shouldn't have. Qiuyue only knew a little about their affairs, and the rest was still unknown.

"Then why did the baby cry later?"

After getting the general idea, Hei Xia Zi suddenly asked. Wu Mian paused slightly, and Tu Lu said, "Ah, it's because Wu Mian thought of a reason to explain to you why you forgot your baby's name. When your baby heard it, she believed it and started crying, and then you came."

"reason?"

Wu Xie immediately raised his eyebrows and became interested.

They have been suffering from this matter for a long time, but Wumian can actually come up with a reason?

"Well, he said that it might be because Baby is the Ancestral Qilin, more powerful than all of you, so he can't remember her name. Even if he remembered it before, he was forced to forget it later. Um... yes, it refers to Zhang Haiqing and the others' response to Baby before, about why they couldn't remember the name of that terrifying existence."

Tu Lu gave a brief account of the situation, and as soon as he finished, a look of surprise and astonishment flashed across the faces of Wu Xie and the other two.

This reason seems to be feasible. Why didn’t they think of it before?

"So, baby, you're crying because you believe this excuse. You think we're suffering but can't express it, and that you were too impulsive and committed suicide without giving us a chance to explain. Is that right?"

Black Blind Man understood. Now the cause and effect were completely connected. Faceless hummed and said, "That's about it. The rest is what happened when you arrived."

After the words fell, everyone finally understood everything. Xie Yuchen nodded slightly and said, "Okay, everything is clear. Now let's talk about the next issue."

He looked up at the clock on the wall and said, "Baby has turned into an adult now. He's no longer as easy to coax as he was when he was a child. We don't know what will happen when Brother and the others leave. The world may change tomorrow morning, or it may not. If it does, we should consider whether we can continue to conceal it. If nothing happens, Baby won't ask Brother and the others when they will be back anytime soon, so we don't need to consider this for the time being."

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of Wumian and Tu Lu changed slightly, because they both believed that Zhang Qiling and his group would definitely die, and that guy would be angered, thus speeding up the process of devouring the world - in other words, they firmly believed that there would be big changes in the world tomorrow morning, and they would no longer be able to hide it from Qiuyue. Tonight should be the last night of tranquility.

Wu Xie and the others were not as pessimistic as they were, but it was not because they had 100% trust in Zhang Qiling and the others, but because they simply did not understand how terrifying that guy was - Xiao Fubao had never told them the whole story.

"If, I mean, let's prepare for the worst, if the guys fail..."

It was Wu Xie who said this. When he said the last sentence, his throat suddenly felt like it was blocked by a stone, and he felt so choked that he was at a loss for words. Hei Xia Zi, who was sitting next to him, naturally knew why he couldn't speak. He patted his shoulder and continued, "If it's really as Hua Ye said, that Dumb and the others failed, and the world has changed drastically, then we definitely can't hide this from our baby. We can only tell the truth. Now we can only pray that there's not much pollution in our baby's body, so that even if we confess everything, she won't be hurt like this."

“…Let’s not even talk about whether it’s polluted or not. Even if it wasn’t, Guaibao would be devastated when she heard that Zhang Qiling and the others were all dead…”

Li Cu, who had been listening quietly, finally couldn't help but speak. As soon as he finished speaking, everyone present fell silent again. An extremely depressing atmosphere was rapidly surging at this moment, making people feel a little suffocated.

Yes, the place they went to was 100% contaminated, and there was almost no chance of survival...

"Ha, yeah, don't be so pessimistic. Maybe the guys succeeded and sealed that guy. Then even if they were contaminated, that guy wouldn't be able to control them. Then they would still be their own, right?"

Su Wan suddenly clapped his hands and spoke in a tone that was deliberately cheerful, but few people present relaxed their frowns, because they knew that the possibility was very small. After all, after facing that guy, even if they were not contaminated, they might be directly killed on the spot like the massacre of the faceless. There was not much chance of survival at all...

"... Let's not talk about the brothers anymore. The priority right now is our precious baby. We can't let her be traumatized again. If she commits suicide again, no one knows if she will be resurrected. It's a blessing that she woke up this time."

Wu Xie tapped the armrest of the chair with his fingers and changed the subject again. He didn't want to talk about Zhang Qiling's situation anymore. Every time he talked about it, it felt like someone was stabbing his throat with a knife, and the pain filled his throat with a sweet taste.

"Is that possible? Once the world changes, there's no way Baby wouldn't know about it. Even if we temporarily conceal the situation of Dumb and the others, if time passes and they never come back, we still can't hide it. Sooner or later, she will know that Dumb and the others are dead. This is inevitable."

Hei Xia Zi lowered his eyes slightly, and his sunglasses blocked outsiders from looking at him, but the helplessness in his tone made people know that he was also extremely uneasy.

No one wanted to irritate her anymore.

For a moment, there was another long silence in the living room. Everyone frowned, unable to hide their sorrow and sadness.

"She'll know the truth sooner or later. Plus, there's still contamination in the baby's body, so something's bound to happen. We'd better prepare for the worst. When we tell her the truth, stay close to her. It's best to stop her when she's about to hurt herself. We'd rather let her hit us than let her draw her sword and commit suicide."

Wumian spoke in a low voice, and his words made Wu Xie and the others frown even more.

"Are you sure there's still contamination in your baby's body?"

Xie Yuchen's expression was extremely solemn. Wumian nodded slightly and said, "She still can't remember her own name. This is enough to know whether there is any contamination."

Indeed, that is clear enough.

Xie Yuchen closed his eyes helplessly, while others either sighed or had sore eyes.
