Bzzzt-!!
The [Time Sundial] hummed violently, shooting out dazzling streams of golden light that seemed to pierce through space and time.
Amid golden silhouettes of time, a man in a white suit with a face bordering on perfection slowly stepped out.
It was Yi Jingran from ten years in the future!
Like a ghost, he attached himself to the present Yi Jingran.
The two slowly overlapped, like a soul returning to its body.
Yi Jingran stood motionless for a moment before opening his eyes. Crystalline blue light flowed and flickered within them like the heart of the ocean.
"Mr. Bai, it worked."
Hearing those words, Bai Ye nearly shed tears of joy.
Finally... it finally worked! At last, I can get all cuddly with Xiao Tong... recover her memories!
"Xiao Tong, clear your mind. I'll transfer your memories from ten years in the future."
An Xiaotong nodded dubiously.
Yi Jingran raised his hand, and a crystalline blue bead appeared in his palm.
Those were the memories he had sealed away.
To prevent them from mixing with his own torrent of information, he had taken special precautions, isolating everyone's memories separately.
Although Bai Ye had never specifically warned him, he had never examined their memories, only sealed them away.
Even though his instincts as a God-Taboo Object made him crave information, he had not sunk so low as to take pleasure in prying into his friends' memories.
The next instant, specks of crystalline blue light rose like fireflies, swirling around An Xiaotong.
Those motes of light merged into her soul little by little.
A torrent of memories surged forth.
Judgment Day, Bai Ye's disappearance, Fang Xubai's slaughter of everyone in North Mang, the West Continent's invasion, founding Night Owl, making love with Bai Ye, returning ten years into the past...
Countless
