Chapter 521 The End
Yu Youyou walked up to Lu Keming, looked down at the unconscious Lu Keming, and bent down to wipe the blood off his face.
The warmth of her fingertips seeped into his skin, and the blinding sunlight woke Lu Keming. He raised his hand to shield his eyes from the sunlight, and only slowly opened them after his eyes had adjusted to the brightness.
The moment he opened his eyes, Yu Youyou's image came into view. Lu Keming subconsciously grabbed her hand that was on his cheek and rubbed it affectionately against it.
He opened his mouth and called out in a slightly hoarse voice, "Youyou."
"Mmm," Yu Youyou responded softly, letting Lu Keming hold her fingers.
"Young Master!" Anthony's voice came from afar.
The sound jolted Lu Keming awake, his gaze focusing, and Yu Youyou's image gradually became clear. Looking at Yu Youyou's unharmed body, Lu Keming's pupils trembled.
"Youyou, your injury...is healed?"
"Yes," Yu Youyou replied again, "I'm fully recovered."
Time seemed to stand still as Lu Keming's gaze remained fixed on Youyou. After a long while, he slowly turned his neck and looked around.
The first thing that caught his eye was a vast sea of flowers, followed by an aging crowd, and finally the dazzling sun in the sky.
He murmured, "The Eye of Hela..."
“Here it is.” Yu Youyou held out her hand to Lu Keming, revealing a marble-sized stone inside.
"You've got it." Lu Keming looked up at Yu Youyou, his head still spinning. "Is all of this... over?"
“Yes.” Yu Youyou smiled slightly and helped Lu Keming up from the ground. “It’s all over.”
“It’s all over…” Lu Keming’s ears were ringing. He raised his hand to support his head, but his voice suddenly dropped: “I… didn’t help you at all.”
“You’ve already helped me a lot.” Yu Youyou stepped forward and hugged Lu Keming, repeating again, “You’ve helped me a lot.”
The warmth in his arms made Lu Keming feel a little dazed, but he took it as Yu Youyou comforting him.
He looked at Yu Youyou's tattered clothes and the bloodstains on them. His eyes, hidden by his eyelashes, were dark and unfathomable, and his hands, placed at his sides, gradually clenched.
There was nothing he could do to help her.
He was still too weak in the face of the gods... which is why he couldn't do anything when she was injured.
He can never do anything.
Lu Keming's eyes were filled with undisguised regret. The smell of blood from Yu Youyou's body filled his nostrils, and he tightened his grip on her.
His gaze fell behind Yu Youyou as he quickly assessed the current situation.
The spark of this world has been obtained.
That disaster...
Suddenly, as if he had realized something, Lu Keming frowned slightly and searched through the crowd, but he couldn't find the figure.
Lu Keming asked Yu Youyou, "Youyou, where's your mother?"
"She's gone." Yu Youyou's grip on Lu Keming tightened slightly. After a pause of a second, she spoke again as if nothing had happened:
"She went back to the past."
"The past?" A hint of doubt flashed in Lu Keming's eyes, quickly replaced by surprise. "Youyou, you've found a way to open a time portal?"
Yu Youyou looked up at Lu Keming. The dazzling sunlight fell into her eyes, reflecting mottled light in her dark eyes and blurring the emotions in them.
She remained silent for a long time. Under Lu Keming's increasingly puzzled gaze, Yu Youyou finally spoke, giving an ambiguous answer: "The space-time tunnel has been opened."
"Then the disaster..." Lu Keming originally wanted to ask Yu Youyou if the disaster had been returned, but he quickly noticed Yu Youyou's low spirits.
Lu Keming stopped speaking, placed his hand on Yu Youyou's head, and gently stroked it a few times.
A piercing buzzing sound broke the silence.
The group followed the sound and discovered that it came from the AI in the hands of the students at the Songbird Academy.
The screen of the AI was constantly flashing with mottled snow-like noise, and a constant "hissing" electrical noise was heard. Strange color blocks were jumping on the screen, and even the surrounding space began to distort.
A mirage-like scene appeared before them, and a blurry figure gradually emerged within it.
Once the figure became clear, everyone realized it was a burning, dark red stone, and the scene behind it looked like a secret chamber.
Anthony immediately recognized it as the secret room in the Lu family castle, "Dark Star".
Dark Star looked at Yu Youyou, and a distorted voice rang out from the AI: "Give me the fire!"
"How can this stone talk?" Fang Ziang didn't recognize that this was the little boy who had been following them before. He looked at the strange stone and took a few steps back in fright.
Dark Star, however, had no time to pay attention to anyone else. It stared intently at Yu Youyou's hand holding the flame, and glared angrily at Lu Keming:
"Lu Keming, quickly bring the fire back to me!"
"What kind of spark?" a student who was unfamiliar with the situation asked in confusion.
Shen Minghua and the others all looked at Yu Youyou.
Lu Keming stared at the figure of Dark Star ahead, his gaze gradually darkening. He turned to look at Yu Youyou.
Yu Youyou glanced at Dark Star and placed the fire seed in Lu Keming's hand.
Lu Keming lowered his eyes and stared at the fire in his hand, remaining motionless for a long time.
