Chapter 224 The once virtuous and upright senior disciple of the sect has turned evil! (23)
Wow, you said that without even thinking! You're so awesome!
Mo Xuan clapped his hands and praised him without any emotion.
"Ok?"
Luo Junche could easily detect the subtle sarcasm in her words. His first reaction was not to understand, but upon closer reflection, the whole thing did indeed seem strange.
Those words were as if they were engraved in my mind; I could just blurt them out without thinking.
But he didn't seem to have a deep impression of this memory; upon closer reflection, he couldn't even recall a clear image of it.
It's as if it was pre-written. Could it be that he was just a puppet like everyone else around him?
Luo Yunche looked puzzled. Mo Xuan let him process it for a while, but not for long.
"You may have many questions in your mind right now, but put them aside for now, I have one more question."
She grasped the man's hand in return; not long ago she had been the one being comforted, but in the blink of an eye their roles had reversed.
What is the catalyst for the global cycle?
Upon hearing this, Luo Junche pursed his lips slightly, his expression gradually tightening, as if he were lost in memories.
"The first time was on my 28th birthday. When I woke up the next day, I was back to when I was 20. I tried it a few times and found that as long as I passed that day, I would return to 20."
"Um,"
Mo Xuan nodded, looking at him thoughtfully.
"Any more?"
"Besides that, there are two other situations: one is a change in the key point, and the other is the death of a specific person. For the first key point, for example, in this competition, if I can't get first place, the world will start over."
As for specific individuals—the sect leader, elders, and some fellow disciples close to me, including myself—if these individuals die, the cycle will begin again. Those I don't know will be unaffected. I think it's probably because everyone around me must remain.
Luo Yunche recounted his discoveries one by one, and then looked at Mo Xuan with considerable anticipation.
"Now can you tell me what you know?"
The question that had troubled him for so long seemed to be about to be answered, and Luo Yunche was even a little excited.
"Don't rush,"
Mo Xuan gently patted the back of his hand.
To allow him to be more psychologically prepared, Mo Xuan preferred to guide him rather than tell him the answer directly.
"In other words, each of your cycles is within the age range of twenty to twenty-eight. You haven't experienced what happened after twenty-eight, so what about before twenty?"
"Or... let me ask it another way,"
Mo Xuan paused here, then uttered each word with utmost clarity.
Do you still think you were the person you were before you turned twenty?
Is it still me?
Is it still me?!
Mo Xuan's question was like a blow to Luo Yunche's head; he had never doubted that he was not himself.
She certainly wouldn't ask such a question for no reason, so this is very likely the truth.
The person before he turned twenty was not him, so even though he knew about that period, he still felt unfamiliar with that memory because it was not something he had personally experienced.
Luo Yunche's head was throbbing, as if something was about to burst forth.
He covered his head, trying to get more clues, but the more he thought, the more his head ached, as if his soul was being torn apart.
A look of pain appeared on Luo Junche's face, and he let out a suppressed cry of pain.
Mo Xuan's face paled, and she hurriedly got up to pull his head into her arms, gently stroking his back with one hand.
"Don't think about it anymore, don't force yourself, let's take it slow, take it slow."
Mo Xuan bit her lip, her voice trembling slightly. She hadn't expected Luo Yunche's reaction to be so intense.
