Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi

Chapter 1225 -1211: He, From the Future?

Xiao Yi walked with determination towards the Reincarnation Destiny Mirror.

With each step, his footsteps grew heavier, yet his gaze became increasingly resolute.

That ancient mirror, sealed in dust for tens of thousands of years since the fall of Fang Wuming.

Countless efforts by the Tiance Clan failed to activate it.

And now…

As Xiao Yi took a step forward.

Mystical gray ripples of fate emerged from the Reincarnation Destiny Mirror, encircling him like halos enhancing his presence. noveldrama

Soon, it seemed to coalesce into an invisible hand.

With a swoosh.

Xiao Yi was forcefully pulled inside, vanishing from everyone’s sight.

Hiss!

The powerful members of the Tiance Clan exchanged glances, “Did Elder Xiao truly activate the Reincarnation Destiny Mirror?”

“It’s unbelievable; even the clan leader couldn’t activate such a supreme treasure!”

“It seems Elder Xiao is truly the Supreme Elder destined for our Tiance Clan…”

Amidst the crowd.

Fang Qingzhu, eyes shimmering with brilliance, locked onto the glowing Reincarnation Destiny Mirror. Her man never disappointed her, and this time was no different, “Xiao Yi, I believe you will find information about Xiao Yun…”

…

Within the Reincarnation Destiny Mirror.

As Xiao Yi stepped in, he was immediately surrounded by dazzling, radiant wheels, layer upon layer, distinctly black and white.

This divided the world into two completely different regions of black and white.

Yet, despite these stark contrasting colors, they appeared exceptionally harmonious in this world, like an inseparable whole.

Buzz!

In front of Xiao Yi, in the black and white world, suddenly emerged an ancient bluestone arch bridge.

On the bridge.

A vague figure perched, its appearance and form indistinct, even its gender indiscernible.

From Fang Wuming’s legacy, Xiao Yi knew the figure before him was the Artifact Spirit of the Reincarnation Destiny Mirror, Ming Weng. Xiao Yi cupped his hands to Ming Weng and spoke in an ancient tongue, “Junior Xiao Yi greets Ming Weng!”

“That kid Fang Wuming has been gone for years; I never expected his legacy to continue. Young one, how did you acquire Fang Wuming’s legacy?” Ming Weng’s indistinct visage naturally made its expression indecipherable, and its indifferent voice gave no hint of friendliness or hostility.

Xiao Yi calmly replied, “By chance, this junior obtained the legacy of Senior Fang Wuming!”

“Oh? By chance?”

Ming Weng’s voice remained unremarkable, yet strangely felt like cold sarcasm, but it did not delve deeper, merely saying, “Since you’ve gained Fang Wuming’s legacy, you should be aware of the Reincarnation Destiny Mirror’s rule: one can only explore the past and future of one person in a lifetime! Are you examining your own, or someone else’s?”

Xiao Yi took a deep breath and said solemnly, “This junior wishes to explore someone else’s past and future. I have a disciple named Xiao Yun, and I wish to know all information about him…”

“Hmm!”

Ming Weng responded lightly.

The vague face glinted briefly, and its wide sleeve trembled slightly, shooting out a flash of cold light.

Transforming into a three-colored gemstone.

Ming Weng said lightly, “This is the Stone of Three Lives; place your hand upon it, and recall everything you wish to explore about that person in your mind. The Stone of Three Lives will guide you to see their past and future…”

“The Stone of Three Lives?”

Xiao Yi’s pupils slightly contracted, his gaze fixed on the three-colored gemstone before him.

The Stone of Three Lives displayed black, white, and gray hues; seemingly ordinary, yet upon approaching, one could feel an unparalleled power of destiny within.

According to legend.

The Stone of Three Lives was born in the deepest part of the Netherworld Hell, recording the past, present, and future of countless beings in the world. It is also said to be the Stone of Fate, inscribing the names of every loving couple, hence the phrase “Fated Together for Three Lifetimes.”

“Thank you, senior!”

Xiao Yi took a deep breath, placing his palm upon the Stone of Three Lives.

Buzz!

The Stone of Three Lives erupted with black, white, and gray light, enveloping Xiao Yi, causing him to instinctively close his eyes, as memories of Xiao Yun flooded his mind.

That day at Xiaoshanhe Institute, when recruiting disciples, both Xiao Yun and Ruan Yunyi appeared.

It was their first meeting!

That day, Xiao Yun approached him, repeatedly warning to exercise caution.

This was their first private interaction.

That day, Xiao Yun appeared in Baiyu, sacrificing himself to revive the fallen Xiao Yi.

This was their last…

No.

It was the last time Xiao Yun saw him!

Yet Xiao Yi never saw him one last time.

Feelings of guilt, confusion, curiosity…

All converged into a strong desire to uncover Xiao Yun’s origins, his background, his current state of life or death… It was precisely because of this that Xiao Yi traveled far to the Mysterious Realm.

Now the Stone of Three Lives was within reach.

He would soon discover Xiao Yun’s true identity!

“Xiao Yun…”

Xiao Yi muttered to himself the name of his least familiar yet most concerned disciple.

Buzz!

The Stone of Three Lives, black light soared skyward.

This represented the past black light.

“It seems this person called Xiao Yun is extremely important to you, having elicited such a swift reaction from the Stone of Three Lives…” Ming Weng muttered.

In the Reincarnation Destiny Mirror, the success rate and speed of exploring others’ pasts and futures depend on the importance and care the seeker places on the target.

The firmer the heart, the more earnest the intention.

The faster the process and the greater the feedback!

However…

Xiao Yi’s field of vision was one of bewildering chaos.

A gray emptiness.

Empty as the void!

And Xiao Yun’s past was nowhere to be found…

“What’s going on? There’s no past for Xiao Yun? Could the Reincarnation Destiny Mirror be malfunctioning? That can’t be…”

Xiao Yi felt anxious. He assumed that locating the Reincarnation Destiny Mirror would lead him to Xiao Yun, only to find no past through the Stone of Three Lives?

Buzz!

The Stone of Three Lives suddenly extinguished its black light.

“Hmm?”

Ming Weng’s vague face trembled sharply, and with a sudden tension of aged yellow hands beneath the robe, its body leaned slightly forward, “Without a past? How could someone be without a past? Is it that the person Xiao Yi seeks was just born? Yet that’s not right, even a newborn has a brief past…”

Buzz!

The middle gray of the Stone of Three Lives abruptly soared.

This represented the present!

But soon…

The gray light shattered, dissipating completely.

Implying that even the Stone of Three Lives couldn’t find Xiao Yun’s current presence.

“Impossible!”

Ming Weng abruptly stood, incredulously looking at the statue-still Xiao Yi before the Stone of Three Lives, filled with disbelief and shock, “No past, no present… could it be, could it be Xiao Yun is from the future?”

At the same time.

Xiao Yi became enshrouded in the white light representing the future, while in his vision, Xiao Yun’s figure finally appeared…
