To ensure the success of the Heaven-Breaking Plan, Su Mingyue had to harden her heart, unable to even see the unconscious Qin Ye Xuan.
After Jin Gao Yue revealed the secret, Jin Yuan Cheng finally made a decision. "We are old. Child, you will be responsible for entertaining our guests from Great Xia. If this world is destined to be destroyed, I want to be with your mother."
Jin Gao Yue rallied her spirits and instructed Zhao Xian Ren and Liu Yuan Tai to cooperate, clearing a dedicated passage directly from the airport to the underground elevator of the Jin Shi Building.
Planes from Great Xia landed continuously, proceeding along the dedicated passage directly to the building.
All the main executives of the Tian Yi Conglomerate were present.
The Su sisters arrived shortly after, all except Su Ming Yue.
Led by Su Bing Yan, they ascended via elevator number one. Unconcerned with anything else, they went directly to Qin Ye Xuan's bedroom, closed the door, and allowed no one else inside.
Disciples like Jun Meng Yao and Li Tian Xing could only shoulder the responsibility of organizing the scene.
Meanwhile, the grand figures of Chao Ge Academy, such as Sun Qing Lu and An Ya, had all been trained by Qin Ye Xuan himself. They were not only his friends but also his disciples.
The scene was chaotic at first, but it gradually quieted down.
The last to arrive were the top brass of the Demonic Sect of Great Xia.
Zhu Tian Qi led several Rakshasa, followed by Di Xin and the Tai Jia family.
As evening fell, many less conspicuous individuals also arrived.
For instance, Wang Yu Lan, who hailed from Chao Ge Academy and had a child out of wedlock, and the family representatives behind Zhu Xiao Qing...
When the guest rooms of the Jin Shi Building were full, a few core figures, with Su Bing Yan's permission, entered the bedroom.
Besides the Su sisters, Qin Ye Xuan's disciples, Jun Meng Yao, and the core members of Chao Ge Academy, Zhu Xiao Qing, Sun Qing Lu, and An Ya, were present. Finally, Zhu Tian Qi and Di Xin entered.
Fang Ling Su, the renowned physician of Great Xia, sat by the bed and examined him for a long time, then shook her head with a bitter sigh. "Our Master's medical skills are ten thousand times superior to ours. If he did not foresee this coma, then we are truly helpless."
Su Bing Yan gazed at the man with deep affection and said after a long pause, "Perhaps Brother-in-law is in a coma voluntarily."
Everyone was stunned.
Su Bing Yan shook her head. "Zhu Tian Qi, tell everyone what you told me. Start with the prophecy book of the Grand National Teacher Ming Ben."
Zhu Tian Qi frowned and stepped forward. "I don't need to take your orders!"
Jun Meng Yao rubbed her forehead. "Oh, my dearest aunt, at a time like this, can we stop arguing? Just tell us quickly. If Master remains unconscious and the Heaven-Breaking Plan fails, everything will be lost."
It was the same sentiment as Jin Gao Yue had expressed.
This was no longer about the gains or losses of a single person, family, or city. It was no longer about the rise or fall of a clan or a nation.
What they now faced was the collapse of the entire universe.
The sky grew darker.
Zhu Tian Qi remained silent. It wasn't a childish tantrum, but a reluctance to speak the truth.
If Bing Yan and the others knew the truth, then the major powers would also learn everything, and the world would descend into chaos before its demise.
At this moment, Jin Gao Yue, his face pale, knocked and entered.
He surveyed the influential figures present and said tremulously, "Please turn off the lights, and then, and then look at the starry sky outside."
What did he mean?
Everyone was bewildered.
All the lights were turned off, and the bustling area of Han City plunged into darkness.
Then, the curtains opposite the bedroom were all opened.
After the spiritual energy had revived, industrial pollution decreased, and within half a year, the starry sky had become exceptionally clear.
At this point, everyone gazed at the beautiful night sky, awaiting Jin Gao Yue's explanation.
Before Jin Gao Yue could speak, Su Ning Shuang cried out in surprise, "They're gone! Oh my heavens, they're gone!"
"Ning Shuang, what's gone?"
"The Seven Stars of the Southern Gate, those stars in the Southern Star region have vanished!"
Only then did everyone notice.
Then, before everyone's eyes, the brightest star in the Southern Gate star region flickered out.
A chill ran down everyone's spine.
Jin Gao Yue turned on the lights, his face deathly pale. "You all saw it. There is truly no time left. After all the stars are extinguished, what will become of our planet?"
An eerie silence fell upon the room.
At that moment, a familiar voice echoed, "This planet will be converted into the final energy and devoured by Hao Tian, for he cares not for this universe, only for reaching the prime universe."
Ah!
Everyone turned in unison and saw Qin Ye Xuan sitting up in bed.
He looked at everyone with a profound gaze. "I know you have countless questions, and the people here are those I care about most, my closest friends, family, and lovers."
Qin Ye Xuan looked at Zhu Tian Qi. "Tell them everything you know. Let them be mentally prepared. The end of the world is irreversible, but we still have a chance to save some people."
Zhu Tian Qi sighed and began speaking, starting from the battle of Tong Guan in Great Xia years ago.
By the time it reached deep into the night, everyone in the room was numb.
Very few could fully comprehend it. Su Bing Yan was one, and Jun Meng Yao was another.
"Master, you are a transmigrator!" Jun Meng Yao exclaimed in disbelief.
Qin Ye Xuan gave a wry smile. "It's not that simple. My body is still in another world. I suspect it's either burned or lying in a hospital as a vegetative state. I'm not even sure which year it would be in that world if Hao Tian returns."
He got out of bed and beckoned everyone closer. "Now, I will tell you my story. After listening, you will have to make a decision: whether to leave with me or stay here and await the final doomsday."
Qin Ye Xuan closed his eyes. After his brief sleep, his memories were fully restored.
He recalled the beginning!
The Prime Universe, Earth, China, an ordinary city.
Qin Xuan, in his early twenties and fresh out of university, rented a small apartment in Jin Hua Apartment.
Jin Hua Apartment on Nanshan Road, though called an apartment, was actually a small building built for nearby laborers. It was an eight-story building with rooms arranged like cells, unrenovated, making it cold in winter and hot in summer.
Qin Xuan was an orphan. After graduation, his only goal was to support himself.
He used the money earned from his university part-time jobs to buy a computer, which was considered a valuable item at the time.
On a certain day in 2002, after securing a new job, Qin Xuan moved into his rented room with all his belongings, envisioning a bright future.
A computer, a desk and chair, a bed, and a toy he had brought from the orphanage.
It was a Transformers toy, popular among children in that era, powered by two batteries that made various combat sounds, but required manual transformation.
Qin Xuan soon began his monotonous routine of commuting to and from work.
The money he earned was meager, and he lived on steamed buns and pickles every day.
One late night, returning to his rented room, exhausted, he discovered a black dot on the wall of room 803.
Strangely, on the not-so-clean gray wall, the black dot was particularly noticeable, as if it were flickering.
Qin Xuan initially dismissed it, merely marveling at his own observation skills.
Some time later, he returned late one night and suddenly remembered the black dot. He turned on his flashlight and saw that the black dot had become a crack.
Most terrifyingly, the crack emitted a faint light whenever the lights were off.
It was as if something was hidden beneath it.
For the first time, Qin Xuan felt a surge of curiosity. After hesitating for a night, he took leave the next day and used crude tools to chisel open the crack.
Then, he saw something bizarre that he had never witnessed in his life.
A sphere the size of a watermelon, but flattened, embedded deep within the wall.
The elongated sphere had a thin shell, and the crack was on its gray outer casing.
After a long while, Qin Xuan thought to use a magnifying glass for observation.
Under the magnifying glass, following the crack, he saw an entire universe!
