Chapter 340 He and She, the Only Variable
Chapter 340 He and She, the Only Variable
Jiang Yuan was surprised for a moment upon hearing this.
Reborn?
Was she talking about time travel?
Could she be a time traveler too?!
Lin Qingyan keenly observed the fleeting surprise in his eyes just now, which further confirmed her judgment.
"I was right after all."
Lin Qingyan looked at him and said, a knowing look appearing on her face.
In her view, Jiang Yuan must also be a reborn person like her!
Otherwise, how could she have risen to power even faster than the former Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty of the Blue Star?
"You really are one of them..."
"also?"
Jiang Yuan keenly sensed the key point, and his eyes flickered slightly.
Could it be that she's not a time traveler, but a reincarnated person?!
Did he mistake himself for a reborn person like her?
In that sense, she seemed to have said something prophetic to herself beforehand, as if she knew in advance that Nanjiang City would suffer a great disaster...
If it's someone who has been reborn, then it makes sense.
Lin Qingyan raised her palm, and a piece of rusty copper floated in her palm, shaped like a compass needle.
"You should know what this is, right?"
Jiang Yuan glanced at it, activated the Eye of All Things, and all the information about this thing immediately appeared before him.
"Fragments of the destiny chart, the key to the Jade Mountain Mirror Land?"
Lin Qingyan's eyes flickered.
She had no more doubts and was certain that Jiang Yuan was a reborn person like her.
Just because—
Jade Mountain Mirror Land is a secret realm that will be opened within the next year. It contains not only ancient artifacts but also top-level divine power inheritances. The first martial artist to find the key and enter it gained tremendous benefits.
Nowadays, nobody knows about Yushan Mirror Land.
They would have no way of knowing the origin and name of the object in their hands, which is one of the keys to unlocking the Jade Mountain Mirror Land.
"No wonder everything I know has changed because of you; it's not surprising if you're a reincarnated person."
Let's go somewhere else.
As Lin Qingyan spoke, she turned and left, her hair fluttering in the wind.
Jiang Yuan followed her to her residence.
A single apartment on campus, with huge floor-to-ceiling windows, fully equipped with living facilities, and the air filled with the delicate fragrance of Lin Qingyan.
"Would you like something to drink?"
"Whatever."
"Then just have this to drink, it's all I have here."
Lin Qingyan opened the spiritual energy refrigerator that could preserve the spiritual essence of food, took out a bottle of milky blue liquid, and shook it at Jiang Yuan. The rich spiritual energy mixed with cold mist spread out.
Jiang Yuan, sitting on the sofa, raised an eyebrow slightly.
"Wine brewed from the blood of a seventh-grade spiritual material, the Azure Deer? You drink this casually? Your quality of life is quite high."
"I've already drunk most of the rewards I got after clearing a dungeon."
As Lin Qingyan spoke, she glanced at Jiang Yuan and said, "Besides, this level of spiritual material shouldn't be worth mentioning to you, a professor at the academy, right?"
Jiang Yuan took a sip of the Canglu Blood Wine, savoring the wonderful and rich aroma that unfolded on his tongue.
"Not particularly precious, but very rare. It tastes good."
Lin Qingyan crossed her arms and leaned against the wall opposite him, looking at him and recalling the first time the two met at the Martial Arts Association.
At that time, he was still an unknown nobody. As a young man just starting out, he showed his talent and amazed everyone.
Unexpectedly, less than a year has passed.
He has reached such a high level...
"Since we are both reborn, there's no need for me to beat around the bush with you. My name is Lin Qingyan, the future Empress Qingyan, one of the strongest humans on Blue Star who reached the demigod realm."
Lin Qingyan said, her tone carrying a hint of arrogance.
"I have never seen you in the future, and you seem to know me as well. There is only one possibility: our timelines have missed each other. You died before I rose to power and were reborn early, while I rose to power after you died."
"Otherwise, given our talents, it's impossible that we wouldn't know each other if we lived the same lifetime."
Listen to her imagined scenarios.
Jiang Yuan didn't say anything, but asked with some curiosity, "You said you became a demigod, so how did you get reborn? What exactly happened in the future?"
This is what he's most curious about.
Lin Qingyan didn't hide anything; her eyes flickered, and she said in a low voice:
"In the future... Earth will face a full-scale invasion from the Abyss. We will fight with all our might to stop the Abyss monsters' offensive and win the victory. On that very day, a true god will emerge from the Abyss."
"I and several other demigods died at His hands, and humanity on Earth faced its final end..."
Jiang Yuan's pupils constricted slightly.
I never expected it to end like this.
"Is that god very strong?"
Lin Qingyan nodded: "He is stronger than ordinary. Even if we develop our abilities to the extreme, we demigods cannot stop him. He controls the power of order, can set rules at will, and can also nullify any abnormal power he identifies. He can even cause elemental tides with his breath, affecting the weather of a country."
Based on her description, Jiang Yuan assessed the strength of the 'god' in his mind, took a sip of the Azure Deer Blood Wine, and asked his second question.
"How long until that day arrives?"
"Two years."
Lin Qingyan said softly.
Jiang Yuan remained silent for a moment.
It was faster than he had imagined.
The Abyss invasion might even be brought forward due to the turmoil caused by his activities.
"If God's resurrection is inevitable, and the future is already predetermined, then only you and I can change the future."
Lin Qingyan said calmly.
"The only chance of success is to defy common sense and become the first 'god' in human history within these two years."
"Only in this way can we rewrite the fate of human extinction and the end of the world."
Her clear, icy blue eyes gazed at Jiang Yuan.
"You and I are the only variables."
