Spoiling the Future, Lin Qiu'er Explodes

"Do you hate her, then?" Xue Di asked. She already knew the answer the moment the question left her lips—if he truly hated her, he wouldn't be keeping Xiao Wu well-fed and comfortable.

Lin Ye slowly shook his head, his voice low. "Hate? Not really.

To be honest, I even admire her a little. For someone to go that far for another person, even disregarding their own life..."

Influenced by the social environment of his past life, Lin Ye had always scoffed at love, romance, and eternal vows.

He believed that male-female relationships were nothing more than dopamine secretion driving biological instincts, emotion overriding reason.

In plain terms, thinking with the lower half, getting carried away.

But Xiao Wu's situation had deeply moved him.

Was Xiao Wu's sacrifice useful? Yes, but not by much.

Even so, she still chose to do it.

Ask the world what love is, that it teaches life and death to pledge.

Lin Ye suddenly thought of that line, but then he laughed at himself.

What the hell? Where did such a ridiculous thought come from?

Clearly, that rabbit just had a bad brain—happy to be sold out, and even complaining the price was too low.

"Hey, what did you mean earlier by 'Original Historical Trajectory'? And the stuff about Xiao Wu—that should happen in the future, right?" Lin Qiu'er spoke up.

She'd had that question for a while, but since she was listening to the story, she hadn't had a chance to ask.

Lin Ye: "..."

This one didn't seem too bright.

After a moment's thought, Lin Ye started spinning a tale.

"In the future, I mastered my divine power, stood alone across the ages, and roamed the universe undefeated. But having no opponents got boring, so I shattered the void and returned to the present, to experience the Colorful Life of living all over again."

"Pfft, bragging. Aren't you afraid the wind will bite your tongue?" Lin Qiu'er curled her lip.

She said that, but in truth, she didn't think Lin Ye's words were entirely unbelievable.

Because she had met Lin Ye a thousand years ago, and back then, he was already an adult.

After that encounter, she never saw him again. A thousand years passed, and she assumed he had long since died of old age.

Yet here he was again, and he had even reverted to childhood.

So, the idea that Lin Ye had come back from the future seemed somewhat credible to her.

"Then tell me about my future." Believing Lin Ye was from the future, Lin Qiu'er eagerly wanted to know her own fate.

Recalling the plot of Douluo Dalu II, Lin Ye said, "In the future, your life will be monotonous for a long time—eat, sleep, wake up, and eat again."

Hearing this, Lin Qiu'er's face darkened. That made her sound like a useless glutton.

"One day, ten thousand years from now, while hunting in the Star Dou Great Forest, you'll run into an old man and a kid. That old man will beat you black and blue."

"Impossible. In the Star Dou Great Forest, who would dare hit me?" Lin Qiu'er jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

Lin Ye spread his hands. "But that's how it is."

"Then why did he hit me? And what about Scarlet King? Di Tian and the others?" Lin Qiu'er pressed.

"That old man is a level 98 Titled Douluo. Scarlet King is no match for him, and by the time Scarlet King reacts, you'll already be captured.

As for why he hit you—that's a long story. Roughly, the kid with the old man got lost, and just then, you showed up. The old man thought you killed the kid, so he beat you up.

But actually, he meant to kill you with one slap. Lucky for you, you had some skill, or you'd have been flattened."

"Despicable humans."

Lin Qiu'er was furious. Being beaten up for no reason would piss anyone off, and that old man had intended to take her life.

"Don't get too worked up. It's not over yet. After the old man caught you, the kid came back.

The misunderstanding was cleared up, but the old man still didn't plan to let you go. He used you as a hostage to force Scarlet King to catch a soul beast for the kid's soul ring.

After that, the old man forcibly matched your attributes with the kid's and split away your fate power."

"Damn it... die..."

By now, Lin Qiu'er was beside herself with rage.

Her fur stood on end, Killing Intent boiling all over her body, and her eyes held a ferocity never seen before.

Fate power was her Reverse Scale—no one could touch it. Whoever did would die.

"Lin Ye, tell me the names of that old man and kid. Where can I find them later?"

Lin Qiu'er decided she would go eliminate those two damned humans herself.

They didn't know each other, keeping to their own business, yet that man struck to kill her on sight. How could she not be enraged?

Her reaction was intense, but Lin Ye found it perfectly normal.

Throughout the whole incident, Lin Qiu'er was the victim. She did nothing wrong, yet she was beaten up for no reason.

And afterward, the most precious thing to her was stolen.

Lin Ye said, "That old man is named Xuan Zi, and his martial soul is the Godly Taotie Bull."

"As for that kid, let's just forget him. He's a pitiful soul too—let him off the hook."

With that, that old geezer Xuan Zi was probably in for a world of trouble.

Lin Ye didn't feel much guilt about it. That old man wasn't a good person anyway.

As for Huo Yuhao, Lin Ye had no strong feelings toward him, but he couldn't say he disliked him either.

Huo Yuhao's own personality had some issues to begin with, and later Tang San tormented him relentlessly—especially in the Qiankun Asking Love Valley, where he was flogged over and over again. It was truly miserable.

Xuan Zi, martial soul Taotie. Lin Qiu'er silently recited the name, committing it to memory, and resolved that ten thousand years later, she would definitely kill that old dog.

After calming herself down, she asked, "And then? What happened after that?"

"After that, you obtained that kid's memories and saw the Colorful Life of the human world. Being mischievous and playful, you transformed into human form and entered the human world."

He paused, looking at Lin Qiu'er with a meaningful gaze. "Years later, you sacrificed yourself to that kid."

"What? That's impossible." Lin Qiu'er exclaimed, her face full of disbelief.

This time, even Xue Di, who had been as calm as still water all along, was startled. What had she just heard? The Auspicious Beast had sacrificed itself?

"Oh, and that kid caught Tang San's attention early on. Later, he became Tang San's son-in-law." Lin Ye added another detail.

Tang San. Tang San again.

Lin Qiu'er's gaze turned dangerous. Every soul beast connected to Tang San had ended up sacrificing itself.

Once was an accident, twice was a coincidence, but could the third time still be called a coincidence?

"And it doesn't end there. After you died, Tang San stripped away your bloodline and soul and gave them to his daughter. In his words, you were always a part of his daughter."
