It was late at night, and the moon and stars were few.
"Have we been discovered?"
On the rooftop of the 13th floor of the Huating Residential Complex, a slender woman wearing an " Imperial Emperor's Mask" and a black bodysuit quickly put away her Barrett sniper scope and hid behind the railing.
The pull tab from the Coca-Cola can hanging on his chest swayed.
"Looks like I was overthinking it." After checking again with the Barrett sniper scope and confirming she hadn't been spotted, the slender woman breathed a sigh of relief. " Sister Liuli must be feeling incredibly lost and helpless right now."
"Unfortunately, at that time, I stubbornly believed that Sister Liuli was like Sister Lan, suffering from delusions, fantasizing about a man who didn't even exist in this world. Little did I know that Sister Liuli was the only sane person in the world!"
The slender woman put away her Barrett sniper scope, removed her Emperor Hero Mask, revealing a delicate face, and her clear, bright eyes showed a maturity beyond her years.
"Based on the results of this month's investigation, and my future memories, I can now basically reconstruct the whole truth."
The slender woman took out a voice recorder and began playing the recording.
His own serious voice rang out.
"On August 31, 2025, at the Bird's Nest stadium in Bird's Nest, during the Crowned and Proclaimed Emperor competition, Exalted Emperor revealed his Imperial Emperor identity and, with the help of the Three Champion Emperors and eight core members of the Imperial Crown, thwarted the Nurarihyon's conspiracy and won the competition."
"At midnight on August 31, 2025, the Imperial Emperor will disappear, the world will change, all traces of the Imperial Emperor's existence will be erased, collective memory will be altered, and the lives of those closely associated with the Imperial Emperor will be rewritten."
"Only Liuli remembers the fact that the Imperial Emperor existed."
On October 7, 2025, after attending the offline gathering on Imperial Crown Island, Liuli decided to dedicate herself to scientific endeavors, developing a time machine to travel back in time and find her predecessor, the Imperial Emperor!
"In 2026, Liuli entered Peking University as the top scorer in Huaxia's college entrance examination with a score of 749, majoring in Physics. The following year, she went to Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the United States of America for further studies, engaging in research in the field of time."
"In 2029, Liuli received numerous world-class physics awards, including the Einstein Prize and the Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics, and was awarded a tenured professorship at Massachusetts Institute of Technology to continue his in-depth research in the realm of time."
"In 2032, Liuli proposed and verified the [ Time Reversal Formula ], winning the Nobel Prize in Physics and causing a global sensation. In the same year, Liuli declined an invitation from the United States of America Academy of Sciences and led her research team back to Huaxia."
In the same year, Liuli became an academician of the Huaxia Academy of Sciences and founded the Time Research Institute. With the strong support of the state, regardless of cost, she devoted herself to the research and development of a time machine.
"In 2035, Liuli created the world's first time machine, named [ Imperial Crown ], which, theoretically, could send humanity back 20 years."
"In the same year, the research institute was attacked by terrorists, the experiment failed, a lot of valuable data was looted, the time machine was severely damaged, and Liuli was injured and hospitalized in a coma."
"Several months later, based on secret intelligence from the Huaxia National Security Bureau, the United States of America developed a [consciousness-streaming time machine], named [ Hundred Demons ], which, theoretically, could transmit a person's consciousness back 20 years."
"And they initiated human experiments codenamed [ Nurarihyon ], with two objectives: either kill Liuli from 20 years ago, or completely destroy the world's first time machine, [ Imperial Crown ]."
At the same time, Liuli, who had just recovered from a serious illness, immediately transformed the severely damaged time machine [ Imperial Crown ] into a stream-of-consciousness time machine.
"And initiated the human experiment codenamed [ Imperial Emperor ], successfully transmitting [ Jiang Sui ]'s consciousness from 2035 back 20 years in time."
The recording abruptly ended there.
"Judging from the results, the experiment was indeed successful. My consciousness Jiang Sui 2035 was successfully transmitted back 20 years. However, in terms of the specific effects, it seems to be a little different from what I imagined."
[ Su Sui ] said with a glint in her eyes, "My future consciousness wasn't transmitted back to my past self, but was randomly Teleport to someone in the past, and I've been suffering from amnesia since 2015 until now in 2025."
[ Su Sui ] pinched her chin and said.
"The reason my future memories returned is probably due to the impact of the disappearance of my biological brother Su Hang, with whom I have no blood relation. Although I don't understand the reason, the return of my future memories is a good thing."
"Speaking of which, although I've never lived with my older brother Su Hang, from Su Sui's perspective as an outsider, he really did spoil me rotten, just like Sister Liuli said."
[ Su Sui ] recalled the Overlord Feast in August. At that time, Su Hang participated in the Overlord Feast under the identity of Exalted Emperor and successfully won the Gold Badge of the Strongest Overlord. In his acceptance speech, he said a lot of cheesy things.
"I have a younger sister who is three years younger than me. Her biggest hobby is collecting badges of the King of Glory of Glory. One day, she told me that she wanted the badge of the Strongest Overlord."
"They say that sibling affection is an unconscious concern, a feeling of heartache and guilt, and a constant sense of indebtedness."
"At that moment, I made up my mind to obtain the Strongest Overlord badge and give it to my sister who has always been by my side."
Su Sui's eyes were gentle. Although the world had changed, collective memories had been altered, and many people's lives had been rewritten, the love that her blood-related Su Hang, had for her was real.
"Only Sister Liuli can find my Su Hang, so I must protect Sister Liuli's safety at all costs."
Su Sui's eyes sharpened. Now that her future memories had returned, [ Nurarihyon ], who had been Teleport here using the Hundred Demons consciousness time machine, would also inevitably have his future memories returned. He would definitely prioritize the assassination of Liuli.
After all, if Liuli is killed, the world's first time machine Imperial Crown, will not be created.
Who is Nurarihyon?
Su Sui's eyes showed a thoughtful look. In the Crowned and Proclaimed Emperor Competition on August 31, Jueying's true identity was revealed to be Hundred Demons Nurarihyon, and he was subsequently expelled from the Imperial Crown's Imperial Crown Team by the Imperial Emperor took back the Emperor's Crown.
But that night the Imperial Emperor disappeared, and the world's collective memory was altered. Everyone who had anything to do with the Imperial Emperor had their lives rewritten, Jueying was no exception.
"The suspicion that Jueying is Nurarihyon can be ruled out. After all, Jueying, whose life has been rewritten, is no longer a member of the Imperial Crown team, nor does he have any connection with Imperial Crown. He is just a high school student with a business mind."
Su Sui's mind raced. Like her, before her life was rewritten, she joined the Imperial Crown Team ten years ago and became the vice leader of the Chen Dragon Alliance. Later, Silver Dragon betrayed the team and left, and she became the leader of Twilight of the Gods [ Jin Ni ].
After her life was rewritten, she joined the Imperial Crown Team ten years ago, becoming an elite member of the Imperial Crown [ Jin Ni ].
"But Nurarihyon is definitely lurking within the current Imperial Crown, especially those nine Imperial Crown veterans whose lives have been rewritten!"
Su Sui recalled the scene of her conversation with Future Liuli.
She had asked about Nurarihyon at the time. If her consciousness was successfully transmitted back 20 years, how would she find Nurarihyon? Liuli's answer was complicated, going on and on about quantum entanglement theory.
Finally, the pool of candidates for the "Nurarihyon" contestant was narrowed down to the Emperor's Crown team, excluding Yin Longhu, Xiao Hu, and Yan Lan—the nine core members of Emperor's Crown who had their lives rewritten!
" Nurarihyon, just you wait!" Su Sui donned the Imperial Emperor's Mask, her dragon-shaped eyes flashing crimson. "At this offline gathering on Imperial Crown Island, it will be Su Sui, the Imperial Emperor's unrelated younger sister, who will shatter you."
