After Agent Yun Jie took his leave, Officer Lou Wei returned. He escorted the two doctors out of sight and made sure no one noticed the arrival of the two. The security camera was already all under his control before he even decided to meet his boss who was drugged during the operation.

Once he returned inside the room, only Hei Yuhua was awake. Police officer Lou Wei greeted him respectfully as if treating him like Ye Yuyan.

Officer Lou Wei spoke, “Please do rest for a while, Sir. We would transfer you to a more secure location after the captain had to wake up. Don’t worry I would be personally guarding the door for your safety.”

Hei Yuhua was a bit on guard towards this officer. In his past life, it was this man who would mercilessly break his hands or legs as long as Ye Yuyan ordered him to. A loyal wolf who could smile in the face of death. Upon hearing his words, Hei Yuhua only nods his head once before laying back down on the bed. He is more comfortable staying beside Ye Yuyan instead of this person.

Since he couldn’t escape anyway, he decided to put himself into sleep where he met System Yang who was hiding in his body protecting the soul of Lord Hei sleeping within his body. As he closed his eyes he was once again pulled into a pure dark room filled with stars. Only a piece of crystal-like ice with the sleeping figure of Hei Anjing exists in this world. A small sun was hovering around this ice crystal obviously guarding it.

Only Hei Yuhua’s soul could enter this place. This is what System Yang called his soul Domain.

System Yang spoke, You’re here. Have you seen the reality outside? I had chosen the timeline when your soul is most vulnerable and replaced the past with your current self. Now the future you had experienced no longer exists.

“Yes. This is indeed the past. Everything that I had undergone was changed by every action I’ve taken. This time I can be sure that I wouldn’t get pregnant that early.” said Hei Yuhua.

System Yang stared at him, peering at his destiny. Most beings who have God Stage cultivation could somewhat see through some part of the future. This is what is called star reading.

That I don’t think is right. You are destined to get pregnant in this lifetime. Whether it was this current timeline or in the future, your daughter will always be your daughter. You should be now aware that as long as you made actions there would definitely be changes that you hadn’t undergone in the past. You should have experienced it now right? The butterfly effect.

Hei Yuhua was suddenly proposed to by the man whom he escaped from his last life. He wasn’t forcefully marked this time but his suspension still happened. This time with Ye Yuyan by his side.

System Yang spoke, Learn to predict the cause and effects of all your actions. This way what you had remembered in the past wouldn’t be that different from the current one. Since your body is now in sleep mode I would help you increase your class A overall constitution to class S, this way the possibility of you dying would be lessened. But I will still try my best to keep you alive as long my lord is resting inside you.

Hei Yuhua nods at System Yang’s explanation. He then stared at the beautiful clear ice crystal not far from him. The being inside is flawless and someone who is an embodiment of perfection. His features were overly refined, especially those phoenix-shaped eyes. Though he knew that hidden in those closed eyelids are mischievous eyes which are as alluring as those foxes in myth, right now he is sleeping peacefully.

“When would he wake up?” asked Hei Yuhua.

System Yang replied, No one knows exactly when but… he might wake up when that man comes over to see him.

“What man?” asked Hei Yuhua.

His mate, his lover, his husband, and his other half. Though I don’t know when and where this person is, he would definitely look for the Lord if he does wake up.

Hei Yuhua thought of something and openly asked, “Is that person the same as I do? Allowing a vessel to reside in a God.”

Must be but no one knows. We all got separated.

Hei Yuhua wanted to ask more but was stopped by System Yang telling him that he must enter a meditative state for him to be able to upgrade his constitution. Hei Yuhua stopped asking and sat in lotus form, System Yang enveloping the man with a divine aura to help him purify his body for a better physique.

Inside Ye Yuyan’s soul domain…

Like Hei Anjing, Ye Xiajie was sleeping peacefully inside a black egg-like dome. A frantic little moon was moving up and down, left and right, clearly panicking from worry and fear. Once Ye Yuyanwas put to sleep with medicines, System Yue pulled him in, in this domain, and scolded him.

Ah! What did you do? That other mortal almost realized that you are different from your past self of yours. Please don’t be so careless. Though you are allowed to change your past, you must not instantly change completely from your reckless past self. Or else they will of this world notice us and try to eliminate us. With the Lord’s protection, but you and I would perish under the heavenly lighting. said, System Yue.

Ye Yuyan commented, “Aren’t you guys gods? What is that heavenly lightning you are talking about?”

System Yue had no other choice but to explain it to this mortal. He is a lot easier to talk with than his alter ego System Yang. He is naive by nature.

We might be Gods but this world isn’t under our jurisdiction. Each world has Heavenly Wills, they are what we call the laws that control this world. They are also the authority that stabilizes your world. They could be considered as your god or even your Yama. But unlike us, they are only a collection of countless human wills. Like data or machines that help oversee this world. They also bestow Punishment to gods who entered this world without permission. Using a time-reversal spell must have confused it for a bit but this doesn’t change the fact that we are outsider gods. explained System Yue to Ye Yuyan.

“I see. Are you going to seal my memories?” asked Ye Yuyan.

System Yue answered, Yes, only because I do not have the authority like my lord to give you the freedom to do anything even against the will of this world’s heavenly laws. Don’t worry, I would at least allow you to unlock a memory per day. So the changes on your would not be that prominent.

Ye Yuyan said, “Then for today, can I choose which memory I should keep?”

Since it is the first day I will allow you to keep two days worth of memories and you may choose it for the first time. Decide which are the two? Said System Yue.

Ye Yuyan nodded his head and said, “I choose today’s memories and the memories from the day I last went to the Intelligence Division in my past life. The day I came for the custody of our daughter, Huahua.”

As you wish. You will retain the memories you made today and I will return that day’s memory to you in the form of a dream. It would depend on yourself whether to believe that dream or not. Close your eyes, I would begin the transfer of the memories to you.

Ye Yuyan responded, “I understand. I will leave the rest to you.” as he closed his eyes and lost his consciousness, falling into a very deep sleep.

Seeing Ye Yuyan enter his slumber, System Yue in his little moon avatar hovers above Ye Yuyan and uses his ability as the system from the upper realm to take over this person’s consciousness and seal his memories as planned. He only unlocked today’s memories and the memories of that day when he learned about Hei Yuhua’s real identity. He made that memory in a form of a vague dream that Ye Yuyan could remember as long as he wishes to remember or left the memories dormant if he chose otherwise.

Within the dreams of Ye Yuyan…

His original memories were sealed, only the ones left unsealed played in his head as dreams. He is now dreaming of the scenes of the day the future he was called over for the custody of his daughter. He was teaching the scenes as an invisible third party. He floats in the form of a spirit seeing the man with the same face as him but looking more mature. The place he woke up to is his own condominium.

This condo had three rooms which included the master’s bedroom. A kitchen, a living room, a small office and lastly an exercise room.

Ye Yuyan was stunned by the scene playing before him, “Ha? Isn’t this my house? Even the furniture and interior design are very similar. Even though there are some things I would never buy myself like this children’s toy and dress… What is this?! A dream?” He keeps murmuring to himself.

He was skeptical of the familiar surroundings around him. He was thinking that this was indeed just a dream of his when suddenly he saw himself wearing a clean dark blue suit in front of the bathroom mirror. He could even see himself humming, obviously showing his good mood. 𝒃𝒆𝒐𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝙘𝙤𝒎

Ye Yuyan mumbled, “This… It is really my face. Looks a bit more mature than the current me but… it is indeed me. This is a dream showing the future.”

He heard himself say to himself in the mirror, “I don’t look old or something in these clothes right? I hope I don’t scare my daughter when I finally meet her all this time. If not because of her omega father being ill, there would never be a chance for us to meet. I do not know if I should be thankful for this opportunity or not.”

Dumbfounded Ye Yuyan heard himself talking about things he couldn’t believe if someone told him face to face. But this is a dream, and that is his face on that man. This person is definitely himself.

Stuttering Ye Yuyan mumbles, “D-Daughter? Omega father? What the hell is this? Are you telling me I have a daughter in the future!? Impossible! There is no way I would betray the omega who saved me just now. No! I don’t believe this. This is not real.”

The scene suddenly changes from his home to the hidden headquarters of the Intelligence Division called Aster. The September birth flower. This fall-blooming herb with daisy-like flowers stands for Wisdom, Faith, and Valor. Named after the Greek word for “Star” due to its blooms resembling a star, Asters symbolize love, wisdom, and faith.

He watched himself enter the director’s office where he saw his own father’s face. Prime Minister Ye. His father looks a bit older than how he remembers but what caught his eyes is neither the appearance of his father nor the face of the hidden figure that leads Aster but instead the face of the adorable little girl crying on his father’s lap. The features of the little girl surprised him that he could hardly move away from his eyes.

That silky black hair of hers is the same shade as his charcoal gray hair. except for the little girl’s silver iris, her nose, lips, and the shape of her face is so very similar to his but lean more feminine due to the gender of the little baby. You can even say that this little girl is his own girl version of a clone. If her eyes were gold instead of silver, just by cutting the little girl’s hair you can get a baby version of himself. He just recalled what that man who looks like him mumbled to himself just now.

Ye Yuyan who had just forgotten all his memories of his future self looked astonished at the sight of the little girl who looks exactly like himself.

He couldn’t help but murmured, “I-Is this my daughter in the future?”
