[Moments later, Ye Yu not only escapes imprisonment and flogging, but even earns the right to sit before Luo Shu.]
[He is even given a cup of black tea.]
[This tea, they say, is the last keepsake the Great Sage, Guardian of the Realm, Luo Shu took when leaving the Demon World.]
[Every sip makes it scarcer; only the most important guests may taste it!]
[Once the hospitality is set, Luo Shu waves lightly to Liu Yuenong, signaling her to withdraw.]
[After she leaves, only he and Ye Yu remain in the side hall.]
[“That line you used just now gave me a very unusual feeling. As if someone very familiar once said it to me. And that person was certainly not you.”]
[“What exactly is going on?”]
[Faced with Luo Shu’s question, Ye Yu doesn’t answer at once. After a moment’s thought, he says softly, “Don’t you remember who called you ‘Doggie’? She was your most important companion.”]
[“Companion?”]
[After the soft murmur, Luo Shu’s expression turns dazed.]
[His hands clench unconsciously; a trace of turmoil flashes in his eyes.]
[Luo Shu lowers his heads slightly and says in a deep voice, “It feels like I’ve forgotten someone very important. I want to think carefully, but it’s as if there’s an invisible shackle in my mind. I can’t break it, and I can’t recall her—not for now, at least!”]
[Hearing this, Ye Yu can now be sure in his heart.]
[In this former Tongtian Pavilion, White Rainbow is a taboo.]
[Even a being like Luo Shu has had his memory sealed.]
[No wonder merely speaking her name warped the space.]
[But why?]
[Ye Yu can’t figure it out.]
[With that suspicion in mind, he is determined not to bring up White Rainbow to Luo Shu.]
[So he smiles lightly and reassures him: “Don’t worry, Great Sage. It’s fine if something doesn’t come to mind right away. Perhaps in a few days, at some moment, it will suddenly return. No need to dwell on it.”]
[Luo Shu’s three dog heads bob up and down; he nods repeatedly.]
[“Makes sense. Thinking of it that way, I suddenly feel much better.”]
[“Right—boy, why would you curse our Tongtian Pavilion out of nowhere?”]
[Ye Yu gives a wry smile. “I didn’t curse you. I told the truth. What’s today’s date?”]
[Luo Shu does a quick calculation. “Epoch Thirty-Seven, year two thousand and sixty, first month, third day.”]
[In the God Realm, every eighty million years is one epoch.]
[Ye Yu knows this basic fact.]
[Recalling the history of Tongtian Pavilion Luo Shu explained before, Ye Yu’s expression grows grave.]
[“Three days from now, the heart-devil cultivator Dong Hongzhuo of Tongtian Pavilion will fall at Past Days ◆ Nоvеlіgһt ◆ (Only on Nоvеlіgһt) Mountain.”]
[“The ones who kill him are from the Boundless Sea Divine Alliance.”]
[“After you investigate and confirm it, you’ll go to war.”]
[“The alliance lord of Boundless Sea will personally fight you. You’ll be grievously wounded and lose much of your strength.”]
[“From there, Tongtian Pavilion begins its decline.”]
[“This is fate. Believe it or not, in three days it will happen.”]
[Having said this, Ye Yu can’t help a sigh.]
[To be honest with himself, he had not wanted to speak of these things.]
[Heroes fading—hard to accept.]
[But to make Luo Shu believe him, Ye Yu has no choice.]
[And of course, if he can change that tragic end, so much the better.]
[Even a change within a secret domain would be good!]
[After a long silence, Luo Shu says only four words.]
[“I understand.”]
[Then he summons an attendant god to take Ye Yu to rest.]
[This divine art has never failed Luo Shu.]
[Ye Yu remains within Tongtian Pavilion.]
[Not that he hasn’t thought of leaving—but he cannot get out at all!]
[Whenever he reaches the main gate of Tongtian Pavilion, a gentle force pushes him back inside.]
[Ye Yu tries to resist, but it’s useless.]
[Since he can’t leave, he may as well wait for now.]
[And slowly seek a way to break the game.]
[After that, Ye Yu plunges headlong into the archives.]
[The demon gods of Tongtian Pavilion wanted to stop him, but Luo Shu barred them.]
[“Let him do as he pleases.”]
[With the Guardian’s word, all demon gods can only obey.]
[Still, they are not convinced.]
[After all, Tongtian Pavilion is full of demon gods—yet a yokai god has slipped in and can come and go from the archives? What is that supposed to be?]
[Many even begin to wonder if Luo Shu has gone senile—has he forgotten the most basic rules of the alliance?]
[Luo Shu pays no mind to such grumbling.]
[From time to time he only looks in on Ye Yu outside the archives.]
[“Boy, if three million years from now you truly are the alliance lord, then of course you may read whatever you like here.”]
[“But I do not wish history to proceed as you have said.”]
[At midday on the third day—]
[Within Tongtian Pavilion’s archives, Ye Yu takes a solid step forward and enters early Great God realm.]
[It must be said: at its peak, the archives hold an astonishing number of methods—more than ten times what remained in decline.]
[Because he has read so broadly, Ye Yu can break through so quickly.]
[As he prepares to leave, he sees a woman in white robes.]
