Time flowed like a river, and time flowed like silk.
When Yang Xuan's consciousness entered the little boy's body, he felt as if he had entered a river.
It was a silvery-white river of time that flowed endlessly.
All kinds of illusions appeared one after another, weaving together seemingly right but actually wrong.
Strange scenes played out one by one in front of Yang Xuan. It was the story of the little boy.
However, the story did not end there. Going against the flow, at the end of the river, there was another river of the same color, but it was even more vast and surging.
Yang Xuan's guess was right. The boy had indeed experienced countless reincarnations. This could be seen from the silvery-white river that contained powerful mental strength.
However, Yang Xuan frowned slightly. This was because he did not find what he was looking for in the memories of time – the great remnant soul.
Taking a deep breath, Yang Xuan withdrew his consciousness and began to extend it into the little girl's body.
This was a very normal action. Neither Yang Xuan nor Zi Yun paid much attention to it.
However, just as Yang Xuan's consciousness was about to touch the little girl's body, something strange happened.
In a thousandth of a second, the little girl's body suddenly emitted a brilliant silver light, directly illuminating the entire world in silver.
Boom!
A terrifying force surged out like a tide. Caught off guard, Yang Xuan did not have time to react. He was directly blasted into the distance and slammed heavily into the mountain range.
Rumble, rumble!
The mountain range slowly collapsed and dust flew everywhere. Yang Xuan spat out a mouthful of blood and fell into the dust.
"Yang Xuan!!" Zi Yun, who was still sitting in the same place and holding the two children, exclaimed.
"Cough, cough, I'm fine!" Yang Xuan coughed and walked out of the dust with a shocked expression.
"What happened?" Zi Yun watched as the brilliant silver light on Mei Na's body gradually disappeared and asked.
Yang Xuan didn't immediately answer Zi Yun's question. Instead, he walked over and stared at Mina without blinking.
In fact, he didn't understand what was going on either.
However, Yang Xuan, whose mouth was still stained with blood, had a happy expression on his face.
That great being's remnant soul definitely existed in Mei Na's body. Otherwise, how could it have such terrifying mental power?
Zi Yun had obviously thought of this as well, but she was worried about something else.
"Is it resisting us?" she asked with a frown.
Yang Xuan knew who she was talking about. He shook his head. "No, it's just resisting me."
Zi Yun was stunned for a moment. Then, he understood what Yang Xuan meant. His face was filled with shock as he asked, "You mean, it … it still has its own thoughts?"
This was too shocking.
Yang Xuan carefully sat down beside Zi Yun. As expected, when he didn't try to probe Mei Na's body with his Divine Sense, the terrifying silver light didn't appear.
After a moment of silence, he said, "I'm now sure that the remnant soul we're looking for exists in this little girl's body. However, the problem is that it seems to have merged with the little girl and is protecting her."
Zi Yun looked at the two sleeping children in her arms and frowned. "Then what do we do? Is there a way to extract the remnant soul without hurting her? "
Yang Xuan shook his head. "I haven't thought of a way yet."
He paused for a moment, then said, "How about this, we'll take the two children back and slowly study them to see if there's any other way."
There was no other way. Zi Yun could only nod, but he reminded her, "Mm … Don't hurt them."
Yang Xuan looked at her strangely. As Helim's clone, Zi Yun had probably forgotten her own origins. She was becoming more and more like a sentimental woman.
"Even if we wanted to, we couldn't. I'm glad for Number One now. If we had been a step late and Number One tried to invade the little girl's body, what awaited him would have been a horrible ending," Yang Xuan said.
Zi Yun thought for a moment and understood what Yang Xuan meant.
The remnant soul was clearly protecting the little girl. If Number One had entered without knowing, he would have suffered a terrible fate. He might even have lost his life.
The remnant soul was too terrifying. It had only revealed the tip of the iceberg, and Yang Xuan was no match for it. It was terrifying.
"What about Dong Dong?" Zi Yun looked at the little boy, Dong Dong.
After learning from Zi Yun that the siblings were called Mei Na and Dong Dong, Yang Xuan said, "Bring them both back. They definitely can't be separated. If they're forcefully separated, who knows what might happen. Dong Dong's body is also strange. We need to investigate further."
"Mm, let me ask them first," Zi Yun said gently.
After shaking the siblings awake, Zi Yun's face was full of motherly radiance. She asked softly, "Dong Dong, Mei Na, what do you two plan to do in the future?"
The first person Dong Dong and Mei Na saw was Yang Xuan. Mei Na had been unconscious before Yang Xuan had arrived, so she naturally didn't recognize him. However, Dong Dong knew that Yang Xuan had saved them and thanked him politely.
Mei Na also stood up and bowed to Yang Xuan.
Although the siblings had been alone since they were young, they had a good upbringing and were very lovable.
After bowing, Mei Na said sadly, "Big sister, we don't know where to go. Maybe we'll just wander around."
When she spoke, there was a sense of vicissitudes in her words that made one's heart ache.
Dong Dong was the same. His eyes revealed a sense of loss about the future.
Yang Xuan was about to speak when Zi Yun interrupted him. She continued gently, "Since you two don't have anywhere to go, why don't you come home with big sister? No one will bully you there."
Originally, she thought that the siblings would immediately agree. At the very least, they would have a look of yearning. However, after hearing Zi Yun's words, the siblings shook their heads.
Zi Yun was stunned and asked, "What's wrong?"
Mei Na said obediently, "Big sister, it's not that we don't want to go. Dong Dong and I are both inauspicious people. Wherever we go, we'll only bring disaster. Big sister is so good to us. We can't harm big sister."
Zi Yun let out a sigh of relief and smiled, "You don't have to worry about that. Where you're going, no one will know you. I know that everyone here covets the power in your bodies. However, where we come from, you two are just small fries. No one will come looking for you."
"Really?" Dong Dong's eyes lit up. He asked, "Big sister, are you serious? Where you come from, we're just small fries. No one will treat us as monsters. Can we be ordinary people? "
Zi Yun's heart ached for no reason. She reached out and patted Dong Dong's head, "Don't worry. Where we come from is full of monsters. If you go, you'll only be able to live like ordinary people. You won't be able to attract attention."
After pausing, she glanced at Yang Xuan and continued, "Besides, this big brother in front of you is the biggest monster in our world. With this monster protecting you, who would dare bully you?"
