Rebirth: The Time-locked Girl

But Shenzhou did not perish. After struggling for three hundred years, it rose once more.

"It wasn't that I came to Shenzhou, but that my soul in Shenzhou once went to the Time Administration Bureau and stayed there for a long time." Rong Shi's voice was soft, "I have always been one of the People of Shenzhou."

Ye Wanlan suddenly remembered something.

Rong Shi's genius reputation first surfaced when he was seven years old.

Before that, he was unknown at the Great Purity Sect.

From a young age, he loved to sleep and dream, able to sleep for ten shichen, while he was awake for no more than two shichen, the opposite of the other disciples at the Great Purity Sect.

His parents once went to Taiyi Palace to ask the Taiyi Divine Doctor to check if there was anything unusual about his body, but Taiyi Palace found nothing.

Later, the Third Elder of Mount Penglai descended the mountain and passing by the Great Purity Sect, he said—This is a sign of soul departure.

In other words, Rong Shi was not asleep, but his soul was leaving his body, going to the Time Administration Bureau.

"Your Majesty, the Time Administration Bureau is too powerful." Rong Shi sighed softly, "I've never seen such a terrifying force, capable of erasing a timeline with ease."

"Yes, they are powerful and fearsome." Ye Wanlan's expression was indifferent, "But in the end, the winner will only be us."

"But powerful doesn't mean omnipotent." Rong Shi smiled, "There are those who can destroy the Time Administration Bureau."

Ye Wanlan suddenly raised her head, her gaze sharp as lightning.

"Your Majesty will become such a person." Rong Shi cupped his fists toward her, "But perhaps I will not see it."

He had made several bets with Fan Jingtian, but they were all trivial matters.

What he truly gambled on was Ye Wanlan becoming the person who could rise above the Time Administration Bureau.

Ye Wanlan silently watched him for a long time before she spoke, "Although I resent you and once wished to kill you, I... I always wanted you to live."

"With Your Majesty's words, Rong Shi is already very happy." Rong Shi shook his head with a smile, "Not only Your Majesty, but the Tower Master also harbors murderous intent towards me."

Ye Wanlan took a deep breath: "I never believed in so-called destiny, so I will find a way to bring you back to life."

"Your Majesty, this is the last thing I can give you." Rong Shi offered a brocade bag, "Do not open it until you once again experience that feeling of powerlessness."

Ye Wanlan looked at the brocade bag in her hand and repeated, "Powerlessness?"

This implies that neither the second Battle of Ten Thousand Armies nor the Sky Tower Master are likely the final conclusion.

White light surged, gradually engulfing Rong Shi's face.

He lastly said, "Take care, Your Majesty."

Ye Wanlan watched the disappearing white light and softly said, "Take care, Rong Shi."

As the last glimmer of light faded, there was a resounding "boom!"

The Sea of Stars actually began to collapse.

Outside, Lancelot was shocked: "Your Majesty!"

As he was about to rush in, Ye Wanlan had already emerged.

As soon as she came out, the passage behind her leading to the Sea of Stars shattered completely.

This meant that the Sea of Stars had vanished from Atlantis.

Lancelot was utterly puzzled: "Your Majesty, what on earth..."

He looked up and saw tears slowly falling on Ye Wanlan's cheeks, even more surprised: "What happened?"

"It's nothing." Ye Wanlan raised her hand and wiped away the tears, "I bid farewell to an old friend."

Saying she wasn't sad would be a lie.

She is human, and human hearts are made of flesh.

"Lancelot, I'm afraid there might be an even greater catastrophe soon." Ye Wanlan closed her eyes, "When necessary, you all may leave."

"Leave?" Lancelot raised his voice sharply, "I'm the First Commander; there's no way I would leave. The battlefield is my home!"

Ye Wanlan asked softly, "What if the end is death?"

Lancelot responded with firm resolve, "To die in battle, that is what I have sought my entire life."

"Good." Ye Wanlan smiled, "Then let's fight."

No matter what lies ahead, anything that stands in her way, be it gods or ghosts, she will crush them all!

At this moment, in the sky above the Nanling Sea, a huge round table hovered quietly in the air.

The Sky Tower Master sat on the right, and behind him stood seven angels, also suspended in the air.

Opposite him was Yan Tingfeng, with no disguise.

"I have long admired the renowned Master of Highest Heaven Tower." The Sky Tower Master smiled, waving a hand to push a jar of wine over, "I never expected the Master of Highest Heaven Tower to be so beautiful, no wonder you always wore a mask."

Before the words were finished, there was a crisp sound.

"Crack!"

The wine jar shattered in the air, and all the wine spilled out.
