341: He and she, the only variable

Jiang Yuan was surprised for a moment at her words.

Rebirth?

Was she talking about Transmigration?

Could she also be a Transmigrator?!

Lin Qingyan keenly observed the fleeting surprise in his eyes, further solidifying her judgment.

"Sure enough, I was right."

Lin Qingyan looked at him and said, a look of realization on her face.

In her opinion, Jiang Yuan must also be a Reborn like her!

Otherwise, how could he have risen faster than her, the former Great Xia Empress of the Human Race on Blue Star?

"You really are also..."

"Also?"

Jiang Yuan keenly caught the key point, his eyes flickering.

Is she not a Transmigrator, but a Reborn?!

Did she just mistake him for a Reborn like herself?

Come to think of it, she seemed to have said some prophetic words to him before, as if she knew in advance that South River City would face a great disaster... If she was a Reborn, it would make sense.

Lin Qingyan raised her palm, and a floating rusty green copper block appeared in her hand, shaped like a compass needle.

"You should know this item, right?"

Jiang Yuan's eyes swept over it, and his Eye of All-Seeing activated, instantly revealing all information about the item.

"A fragment of the Fated Plate, the key to Jade Mountain Mirror Land?"

Lin Qingyan's eyes flickered.

She no longer had any doubts now, convinced that Jiang Yuan was a Reborn just like her.

Because—

The Jade Mountain Mirror Land was a Secret Realm that would only be opened within the next year, containing not only ancient artifacts but also top-tier Divine Ability Legacies. The first Martial Artist to find the key and enter it gained immense rewards.

And now, no one even knew about the Jade Mountain Mirror Land.

It was even less possible to know the origin and name of the item in her hand, which was one of the keys to opening the Jade Mountain Mirror Land.

"No wonder everything I knew changed because of you. If you're a Reborn, it's not surprising."

"Let's go somewhere else."

Lin Qingyan said, turning and leaving, her hair swaying.

Jiang Yuan followed her to her residence.

A single apartment on campus, with huge floor-to-ceiling windows, fully equipped with living facilities, and the air was filled with the faint fragrance of Lin Qingyan.

"Do you want something to drink?"

"Whatever."

"Then just drink this, I only have this here."

Lin Qingyan opened the spiritual energy refrigerator that could preserve the spiritual essence of food without loss, took out a bottle of milky green liquid, and shook it towards Jiang Yuan. A rich Spiritual Qi mixed with cold mist diffused out.

Jiang Yuan, sitting on the sofa, raised an eyebrow.

"Wine brewed from the seventh-grade spiritual material, Azure Deer Blood? Just 'whatever' and you drink this? Your quality of life isn't low."

"A reward I got after clearing a dungeon. Most of it has already been drunk by me."

Lin Qingyan said, glancing at Jiang Yuan, "Besides, for a professor like you, this level of spiritual material should be nothing worth mentioning, right?"

Jiang Yuan took a sip of the Azure Deer Blood Wine, feeling the wonderful, rich aroma of the wine bloom on his tongue.

"Not precious, but very rare. It tastes good."

Lin Qingyan stood leaning against the wall opposite him, arms crossed, looking at him, recalling their first meeting at the Martial Dao Association.

At that time, he was still an unknown, a young man just starting out, yet he already displayed his brilliance and amazed everyone.

He hadn't expected that in less than a year.

He had already reached such a high level... "Since we are both Reborn, there's no need for me to beat around the bush with you. My name is Lin Qingyan, the Empress Qingyan of later generations, one of the supreme powerhouses of the Blue Star Human Race who reached the Demigod Domain."

Lin Qingyan said, with a hint of pride in her tone.

"I never saw you in the future, and you don't seem to know me either. There's only one possibility, and that is our timelines missed each other. You died before my rise and were Reborn early, while I rose after your death."

"Otherwise, with your talent and mine, living in the same era, it's impossible for us not to know each other."

Listening to her deductions.

Jiang Yuan said nothing, just asked curiously, "You said you became a Demigod, so how did you Reborn? What exactly happened in the future?"

This was what he was most curious about.

Lin Qingyan didn't hide anything, her eyes fluctuating, her voice ethereal as she said:

"In the future... Blue Star suffered a full-scale Abyss Invasion. We exhausted everything to block the Abyss monster's offensive and achieved victory. But on that very day, a true God emerged from the Abyss."

"I and several other Demigods died at His hands, and humanity on Blue Star also met its doomsday..."

Jiang Yuan's pupils constricted slightly.

He hadn't expected such an ending.

"Was that God very strong?"

Lin Qingyan nodded: "Unreasonably strong. We Demigods, who had developed our abilities to the extreme, couldn't stop Him at all. He wielded the power of order, capable of arbitrarily setting rules, and also possessed the ability to nullify any recognized abnormal power. His mere breath could cause elemental tides that affected the climate of an entire country."

Jiang Yuan judged the strength of that 'God' in his mind based on her description, took a sip of Azure Deer Blood Wine, and asked his second question.

"How much time is left until that day arrives?"

"Two years."

Lin Qingyan said softly.

Jiang Yuan fell silent for a moment.

It was faster than he had imagined.

Even with the Abyss's turmoil caused by his activities, the Abyss Invasion might even come earlier.

"If the God's revival is inevitable and the future is already set, then only you and I can reverse the future."

Lin Qingyan said calmly.

"The only chance of victory is to break through common sense within these two years and become the first 'God' in Human Race history."

"Only then can we rewrite the fate of humanity's demise and the world's end."

Her pair of clear, icy blue eyes gazed at Jiang Yuan.

"You and I are the only variables."
