Chapter 1015: Change


    Li Huowang shook his head after learning that Qing Wani was in the kitchen.


    The familiar roar of an engine echoed from a distance. Li Huowang gave a signal to Yang Na and Yi Doni.


    <em>BAM! </em>The door was kicked open violently, revealing apletely transformed Zhao Shuangdian.


    “Where is Li Huowang?”


    Li Huowang was stunned. Zhao Shuangdian’s usually smooth, lustrous hair now looked greasy, as if she hadn’t showered in days. She looked disheveled, with baggy, ill-fitting clothes and no makeup.


    He remembered her as a beautiful and intelligent woman, but now she appeared to be someone entirely different.


    Zhao Shuangdian locked eyes with Li Huowang andughed before approaching him.


    Yang Na wanted to stop her, but Zhao Shuangdian pushed her away. “Li Huowang, why were you looking for me? Is there something that you can only say to me face-to-face?”


    “Wha… What?”Li Huowang was taken aback because her change had disrupted his ns.


    But there was no time to waste. He needed to adjust his ns quickly, so he hastily brought Zhao Shuangdian away from Qing Wani’s mansion.


    They reached the bamboo forest, and Li Huowang turned to face her, his shock evident. “Why are you like this? How did you be like this?”


    Zhao Shuangdian, clearly irritated, crossed her arms and scoffed. “What are you talking about, you crazy lunatic?”


    Li Huowang understood what was happening when he recalled Yang Na’s situation.


    “Is it because I consumed your Heavenly Dao? Here, let me return it to you!”


    Li Huowang attempted to cut into his flesh to offer it to Zhao Shuangdian, but she forcefully pressed down on his shoulder to stop him.


    Li Huowang struggled. “Why? I’m trying to return it. Why don’t you want it? Why don’t you want your Heavenly Dao? I don’t know how to use your Heavenly Dao!”


    Yi Doni ran over to help them. “Little Li, she won’t understand what you’re trying to do or say if you keep talking like this.”


    Li Huowang sighed when he observed Zhao Shuangdian’s expression. “Fine. Let me go. I’ll exin everything to you.”


    “Exin what?” A familiar voice cut in.


    Zhao Shuangdian let go of Li Huowang and waved toward Qing Wani. “Don’t worry. Li Huowang just wanted to exin something to me.”


    Li Huowang turned to see Qing Wani approaching them with his trademark smile.


    “Let’s talk in the mansion.”


    Once they had returned to the mansion, Zhao Shuangdian questioned Li Huowang again, saying, “What do you need to tell me? Go ahead.”


    Li Huowang looked at her and then at Qing Wani. He didn’t know how to exin things right now.


    The Three Ancient Ones were more vignt than he had thought. Although Qing Wani didn’t recall the events of the previous resets, he was still closely monitoring everyone.


    Right now, Li Huowang couldn’t reveal that Qing Wani intended to steal all of the Heavenly Daos. His previous efforts would be entirely wasted if he did.


    Apart from alerting Qing Wani, there was the risk that Zhao Shuangdian wouldn’t trust Li Huowang anyway, given how much she’d changed.


    At that moment, the sound of the television caught Li Huowang’s attention, and an idea struck him. He pointed to the screen. “Look! Fu Shengtian ising!”


    Everyone turned to see footage of the hurricane on the television. A shard of ss from a skyscraper fell and shattered on the ground, causing the reporters to flee in panic.


    The others looked at Li Huowang in confusion. He exined, “Fu Shengtian is attacking us and heading closer. We need to find a way to deal with it as soon as possible!”


    Qing Wani blinked and pushed his sses up. “Is this the major news you were talking about?”


    “Isn’t it important? Fu Shengtian will reach us in eight days! I had to risk my life to get this information! We’ll all be dead if we don’te up with a n before it arrives!”


    “Six days.” Someone interrupted Li Huowang.


    He turned to see Chen Hongyu, who was staring at the television. “Huh?”


    Chen Hongyu exined, “Not eight days, but six.”


    She turned up the volume, and the announcer’s voice echoed across the room. “Weather reports say the hurricane will reach us in six days. We urge everyone…”


    Li Huowang’s face paled when he heard the news. Fu Shengtian hadn’t been affected by the resetting timeline—it was still approaching them.


    Qing Wani had said they had eight days, but now they only had six.


    “Wait, doesn’t that mean…”


    Suddenly, Li Huowang recalled something. He pulled out his phone with trembling hands. His fear was palpable, but he dialed Sun Xiaoqin’s number.


    —Sorry, this number is no longer avable.


    The recording left him crestfallen. Refusing to give up, he tried Li Jianchen’s number. However, he heard the same message.


    “This… How… how could this be… Why…”


    Li Huowang cried and called his parents repeatedly, but no one answered.@@novelbin@@


    Fu Shengitan was immune to the timeline reset. Its actions affected future timelines.


    Fu Shengtian had altered the past, so the deaths of his parents—Sun Xiaoqin and Li Jianchen—had been set in stone.


    “Why! Why! Why involve them? Attack me instead!” With a cry of anguish, Li Huowang smashed his phone against the ground.


    The others were surprised by his outburst, stepping back in shock.


    Ba Nanxu worriedly approached Zhao Shuangdian. “Why don’t we send him back?”


    Yi Doni clenched his fist and whispered, “Little Li! Calm down! Don’t forget our n! Things aren’t over yet!”


    Li Huowang took several deep breaths before copsing onto the sofa with Yi Doni’s help.


    Only then did he realize the others were seated at the dinner table, whispering among themselves while asionally ncing in his direction.
