It was so colossal that even Chuxue, who had been sprinting for her life, could not help but stop in her tracks.
In that instant, their worldview and scientific understanding were shattered by a single blow, while all their former common sense and knowledge were completely overturned.
Everyone stared blankly at that immense existence beyond the stars, unable to comprehend it, unable to describe it, unable even to speak.
Until—
That immense being reached a hand into this planet.
That hand effortlessly caught the "mountain" that was hurtling toward them.
Then, with a gentle motion, it set that "mountain" down on the ground, preventing it from crashing straight into the planet.
After doing all that, the hand withdrew, and that immense being vanished from the starry sky.
Leaving behind only one sentence:
"Why do I feel like I've turned into a mother hen? Not only do I have to find your children, I also have to soothe you, the mother."
Chuxue: "..."
The people of Siracusa: "..."
Before anyone could understand what deeper meaning lay behind those words—
Chuxue heard a cry first.
"Children... my children... Enya? Enya!!!"
Hearing someone call her name, Chuxue instantly snapped back to her senses and looked up again.
Running toward her from the direction of that "mountain" was none other than her Yal.
Chuxue immediately ran forward as well. "Yal! I'm here! I'm over here—"
After all, her Yal was an incarnation of a god.
Thus, Chuxue had barely taken a few steps before Yelagund crossed several hundred meters in a single stride, reached out, and pulled her into an embrace.
"Thank goodness... thank goodness... My children are alive... Enya, you're alive..."
"Ah..."
Chuxue suddenly did not know what to do, because she already knew Yal's true identity.
But seeing Yelagund crying like a child, Chuxue could not help sobbing as well.
"Come to think of it, haven't I been a little too indulgent toward this Yelagund?"
Chen Ran stood before the model of the newborn planet, watching the two embracing and weeping within it, and raised an eyebrow.
This was already the second time Yelagund had jumped straight down from his hand.
"It's not like you can't jump, but could you at least say something first?"
"If I hadn't reacted fast enough, Yelagund probably wouldn't be embracing her Saintess and crying right now. She'd be mourning at a grave instead."
Do you even have Lord God in your eyes?
So, should he catch Yelagund and give her a spanking as punishment?
"Just kidding."
Chen Ran said that because he wanted to see how the translucent pop-up window would react.
Back during that Demon King Rabbit incident, the translucent pop-up had kept going on and on about spanking that Little Rabbit.
Yet now that it was Yelagund, why was the translucent pop-up not reacting at all?
What, were you only concerned about that Little Rabbit?
As Chen Ran complained, the translucent pop-up flashed at just the right moment.
A few seconds later, it appeared before Chen Ran:
I never expected you to be into that. Spanking a rabbit's butt can make it have a false pregnancy. But spanking a rock's butt will not. If you really are into that, then I recommend—
Chen Ran: "..."
Fine, shut up.
Chen Ran's vision went dark as he waved a hand, dispersing the translucent pop-up before him.
Then he lowered his head again and looked into the newborn planet model before him.
Watching the happy ending within, Chen Ran could not help nodding.
"Forget it. Though I really do want to catch Yelagund and spank her, who asked me to be such a kind-hearted person?"
Chen Ran truly was kind-hearted.
After all, although the Sea Creatures now all looked dazzling, with each of their little dresses, beautiful legs, and black stockings seemingly different—
Strictly speaking, those clothes were still part of the Sea Creatures' bodily tissues. They had transformed their scales, tentacles, and other such things into the appearance of clothing.
So when time reversed and the Sea Creatures devolved into those Siracusa people, it would have been impossible for their clothes to remain. Them all being stark naked would have made more sense.
If it had just been a group of grown men running around bare-assed, that would have been fine... Well, actually, that would have been pretty eye-searing too.
But Chuxue and those little squirrels were all women. He could not possibly toss them naked into a crowd, could he?
So—
Chen Ran spent both time and effort, personally dressing every single Sea Creature one by one.
He had even deliberately timed it for the moment those Sea Creatures had just devolved into human form, so the clothes would not dissolve due to the reversal of time.
Unfortunately, since all those clothes had been provided by Heart of the Corrupted Skadi and Demon King Rabbit, they were all women's clothing.
As for whether those grown men would find it eye-searing when they woke up and discovered they were wearing women's clothes—
What did that have to do with Chen Ran? It was not like he could see it.
