Chapter 321
You two can't be reunited as mother and son. Your mother went to seek revenge, but because she was too reckless, she was killed instead?!
"When are we going to see my mother?" Skye asked expectantly as she walked over.
"..."
Su Quan was silent for a moment, then sighed, "Your mother is dead."
???
Skye looked on in astonishment. "Are you kidding me?"
Su Quan shook his head. "I sensed that your mother went to Daniel Whitehall for revenge, but was killed by his henchmen Absorbing Man."
"Impossible!" Skye exclaimed excitedly, "Didn't you say my mother could Absorb Life? She, she didn't die even after being dissected, how, how could she be dead now?"
Su Quan waved his hand, directly teleporting Gordon, who was carrying Jiaying's corpse, over.
Gordon held Jiaying's body with a wary expression. Although he couldn't see her, he could sense the situation around him.
"Master?" Gordon sensed Jiaying's presence and immediately said, his voice choked with emotion, "Master, Jiaying, she..."
"I already know."
Su Quan introduced Gordon and Skye to each other. Upon hearing that Skye was Jiaying's daughter, Gordon handed Jiaying's body over to her.
Sorrow pervaded the air, and tears flowed like rivers.
Skye never expected that she would die just as she was about to meet her mother after gaining her powers and becoming Inhuman.
This kind of grief is more painful than not knowing that your mother exists!
"I want to avenge my mother!" Skye stared at Su Quan with bloodshot eyes, her abilities slightly out of control.
Su Quan said, "Of course we must avenge our grudges, but let's deal with your mother's matter first."
Skye paused, then said, "You mean..."
"I can bring her back to life, but even if she is brought back to life, the suffering she has endured in her life will not disappear."
"Gordon, you should know very well the difference between the original Jiaying and the current Jiaying."
As Su Quan finished speaking, Skye couldn't help but look at Gordon's lungs.
Gordon sighed deeply and said in a low voice, "She's suffered a lot!"
"She used to be kind and righteous, and only wanted to help and protect her people. Later, her daughter died."
"Wait, her daughter...you mean, I originally had an older sister?" Skye interrupted Gordon.
Gordon nodded. "Her name is Kala. Her abilities are powerful and dangerous. She cannot control her abilities, and many people in the Afterlife believe that she will bring disaster to everyone."
"Later... she committed suicide."
"Jiaying also left this Afterlife to do charity work, and that's how she met your father."
"Later, she returned to the Afterlife covered in scars, and her personality changed drastically."
Jiaying's life was indeed a tragedy. She was originally a gentle and kind person, but she lost two daughters in succession and was dissected herself. It is normal for her to turn to the dark side!
Anyone would turn to the dark side after experiencing this!
There was a time when Skye had also resented her mother for abandoning her.
Now, she only feels that her mother's life has been too bitter and she shouldn't have suffered so much!
Skye looked at Su Quan hopefully, believing that Su Quan must have a solution.
"The current Jiaying is dead, but the past Jiaying is still alive. I can bring the Jiaying who has not yet experienced all the hardships from the past timeline to the present and let her start a brand new future."
Rather than reviving the current Jiaying, Su Quan prefers to bring the past Jiaying over.
For Jiaying, the hardships that drastically changed her personality were not necessary experiences; after her transformation, she was no longer a qualified mother.
Before she turned evil, she once told her eldest daughter, Kala: "My superpower has allowed me to live for a long time. I used to think that was my greatest gift from heaven."
But I was wrong, you were wrong!
After turning to the dark side, she told her second daughter Skye: "I always thought that the reason I could endure all the torment and pain was for you. You are my true gift from heaven."
But you're not, my superpower is!
Even if Jiaying were to be persuaded to surrender, she would not be the mother Skye hoped for.
Rather than that, it would be better to let Skye directly contact her mother before she turned evil. Although they would no longer have a physical relationship, their relationship would not change.
Just like in the TV series, Skye travels through time and encounters Jiaying, who didn't give birth to Skye and hadn't turned evil.
Before knowing Skye's identity, Jiaying felt that Skye was very special. After learning Skye's identity, she accepted the fact immediately and died to save Skye.
Blood is thicker than water, and one's identity will not change because of experiences!
"Won't this affect the timeline? And it should also affect reality," Peggy Carter asked.
If a person disappears without a trace for decades, the decades that were originally related to her will definitely have a butterfly effect, affecting the present reality.
Su Quan nodded and said, "Under normal circumstances, that is indeed the case. The Time Variance Authority will not allow anyone to escape fate. However, I Negate Time and Immune to Causality. I or those related to me will not be affected."
Peggy Carter nodded and said, "So you mean bringing Jiaying from the past won't affect the present?"
"That's basically it." Su Quan looked at Skye and asked, "What's your decision?"
Skye shook her head, hesitatingly saying, "I don't know. You... you make the decision. I trust you!"
"Good."
Su Quan nodded, preparing to travel through time.
"Wait..." Skye suddenly called out to him, and said hesitantly, "Could you bring my sister back with you? I've always envied people who have parents and sisters."
Su Quan smiled, "Of course, this is my reward for you!"
After saying that, he closed his eyes and sensed the timeline.
This time, he doesn't plan to travel through time using Time Controller or Dimensional Teleportation, but instead intends to try his Cisco Ramon's abilities.
His powerful perception traversed the timeline rapidly, and the feeling of soaring—no, it should be said—swimming in the endless river of time made him somewhat dazed.
A series of images flashed by quickly, and the feeling that there were no secrets in time made him feel somewhat lost and somewhat inflated, as if he had mastered time!
Fortunately, he quickly calmed down, because he knew very well that even if he mastered time, it didn't mean that he had become the strongest in the universe!
There are many powerful beings in Marvel. Relying solely on dropped rewards and stacked abilities, he can only reach the Multiverse level at most. There are many things he cannot do yet!
To put it bluntly, his most destructive method right now is to combine the physical attributes of countless Kryptonians, Power of Divinity, and Chaos Energy.
Only when one possesses Doctor Manhattan's Power of Connection, as well as the Crisis Energy and Anti-Crisis Energy that create the Multiverse, can one be considered among the top!
His strength lies in the future!
In a normal universe, you'd hardly encounter any powerful beings, let alone gain powerful abilities through drops.
When you accumulate enough power to fight against top-tier individuals, that's when your strength will greatly increase.
For example, those who are Mimic or Beyonder, if their own strength is not strong enough, even if they do not fight the other party, they will not have many opportunities to get free rewards.
Su Quan's sobering suggestion immediately calmed him down from his arrogance. Then, thinking of Jiaying and Kala, he quickly pinpointed the exact time in the river of time.
Then, the vibration timeline directly transmitted Cisco Ramon along the timeline.
"Buzz!"
Skye and the others discovered that Su Quan's body twisted in a strange way and then disappeared without a trace.
The next moment.
At some point in the past, in an Afterlife jungle, a typical Asian girl clutched a gun and ran frantically, not knowing where to go.
As she ran, she suddenly stopped, bent her knees and knelt on the ground. Panting, she gripped the gun with both hands and slowly pressed the muzzle against her chin.
At the same time, her eyes lit up with a golden light.
Her name is Kala, and she is planning to commit suicide!
For Kala, death was the only escape. She didn't want to hurt anyone, nor did she want to be locked in a room all day like a prisoner.
She just wants a normal life, is that wrong?!
Her mother's comfort, the blame from others, and her own self-reproach—all of these things made her unable to bear it any longer.
She suffered a mental breakdown.
She wanted to be free!
"Huff... huff..." With deep breaths, Kala slowly closed his eyes, preparing to pull the trigger.
Suddenly, Kala opened his eyes in surprise and found that the gun in his hand had begun to vibrate violently and stand up.
One by one, parts flew off the gun. Kala subconsciously let go, and in the blink of an eye, the gun had been disassembled into countless parts.
Kala looked around and soon saw a young, handsome Asian man smiling as he lowered his hand and walked over.
Kala subconsciously stood up and took two steps back, staring at the other person warily.
"Kala, you don't have to die today," Su Quan said with a smile.
Kala's looks aren't particularly striking; she's not as immediately beautiful as Skye. However, her appearance is more typical of pure Asians, unlike Skye, who is more or less clearly of mixed race.
