Before Kaiwen could answer, the young man had already raised his right hand, with his fingertips gently brushing over his eyes... across the false night sky painted within this spatial spiritual artifact.

"The book says it's an illusion projected on the boundary wall of Blue Star, from other worlds beyond the endless void, even further than the Other Shore."

"In the world, there are only two stars that truly exist."

"The Sun and the Moon, they are the two oldest Tier Nine Beast Gods to date."

"They came from other worlds during the Great Cataclysm, and have guarded Blue Star for over five hundred years."

"Apart from them, all stars are either projections from other worlds or powerful Holy Beasts, Desolate Beasts, or temporary manifestations by Spirit Masters."

"The True Men have long confirmed that if you keep flying upward, you cannot reach other worlds; you'll only be transported to the Outer Battlefield."

"After the worlds converged, we obtained much knowledge from the Divine Beasts and Holy Beasts of other worlds, many of those different worlds' skies represent various things."

"Some hold the Star Realm that stores the Divine Spirit Divine Country, others represent the Life Stars of powerful beings..."

"Those worlds all have visible and tangible stars, that's why the heritage about stars reaches us here."

He whispered, "But... what about the stars originally belonging to our Blue Star?"

"Some say it's the result of the world upheaval five hundred years ago, we were nurtured by Blue Star, but also trapped by the false starry sky... or rather the boundary wall, losing our connection to the 'original' universe, and thereby losing the starry sky that originally belonged to us."

"Others say the world has always been this way, that the so-called 'universe' where Blue Star originally was never existed, and it was the Great Cataclysm that opened the world's door, allowing us to see the outside scenery."

"But..."

His words grew somewhat scattered as if increasingly weary, yet his eyes were reluctant to close.

"Clearly, there were stars... before the Great Cataclysm, there were stars outside, weren't there..."

"Stars, planets, black holes, galaxies..."

As he spoke, Kaiwen's hand, supporting his head, suddenly trembled slightly.

"The Sun should be a huge ball of fire burning brightly, while those smaller planets that haven't ignited themselves orbit the Sun, called planets, and stars like the Sun are called stars."

"Stars like the Sun are scattered across vast spaces that take light billions of years to traverse, it's quite ordinary... Stars densely clustered together are called galaxies, star clusters... The whole universe is unimaginably vast, with all sorts of strange things, like black holes that can swallow everything, fast-rotating pulsars, three-star systems operating in parallel, quasars at the centers of galaxies..."

But it seemed something strange had mixed into his current thoughts, making it difficult for him to distinguish as he spoke out loud.

"There are also giant shells built on the surfaces of stars that can absorb energy, allowing fleets and ships to pass through, traversing distances of countless light-years, immense star gates that can cross galaxies... high-dimensional veils that allow entry into subspace, infinite consciousness computers the size of stars..."

He muttered almost in a dream: "Such megastructures are commonplace in galaxies..."

"In addition, there are many, many other incredible things..."

Kaiwen was utterly stunned, almost unable to maintain the intricate operation.

She forcibly gathered her thoughts, gazing at the youth's face, the green eyes in her ocean of emotions swirling with indescribable complexity, softly asking: "Where did you learn about these things?"

"I just know."

The youth, already so weary he couldn't keep his eyes open, spoke as if in a dream, yet suddenly a reminiscent smile appeared on his handsome face: "I was born knowing these things."

"If there is such a thing as a past life, then it must be from a past life that told me..."

Kaiwen did not immediately respond.

And if Lin Guang were still awake at this moment, from his perspective, he would have noticed that on Kaiwen's lovely face, her expression seemed somewhat at a loss.

Her emerald green eyes flickered continuously, not from fear, but rather akin to the feeling of approaching home, as if some thick, long-hidden emotion was about to overflow from her heart, unable to be suppressed any longer, making her extremely excited.

She took a few deep breaths to calm her mind, looking at Lin Guang's face with that pair of beautiful eyes, her tone gentle to an unbelievable degree, softly like singing a lullaby: "Then... if you have the chance, would you want to return there and take a look?"

However... the youth did not answer.

Kaiwen was slightly startled, only then discovering he had fallen asleep with his eyes closed.

And Kaiwen's healing seemed to be reaching its end.

The domain was silently withdrawn, leaving only the immovable Dragon Beast behind her, whose aura, like her own, was somewhat waning, and the boy resting on her lap asleep under the night sky.

Kaiwen seemed to have calmed down from her earlier emotions, the fleeting look of fatigue and inner conflict in her emerald eyes was something Lin Guang had never seen.

Yet she did not withdraw her hands but continued to gently caress Lin Guang's face as though reluctant to part.

After the Heart of Terra begins to evolve, it will render an indiscriminate increase in liking and attraction to all life from Terra, which will manifest in aspects like temperament and scent, the longer one remains, the stronger the effect.

It's more akin to arriving at a place of peace than something seductive.

Just like when someone returns to what is considered their hometown, their harbor, they will always be more relaxed than outside, appearing more genuine.

She couldn't possibly have not noticed this after researching for this period.

But with her aloof nature and experience, knowing this self-awareness, even if influenced, she shouldn't have done something like changing clothes for Lin Guang at the start.

The reason she did it from start to finish was solely one reason.

That is...

All along.

The position Lin Guang holds in her heart is far beyond the simple master-disciple relationship he perceives himself to have.

Looking at Lin Guang's face, the weary Kaiwen seemed to have made a firm decision once more, slightly lifting her head.

The "W3" behind silently underwent a transformation.

First, it reverted to the shape of that diamond silver object, and instantly transformed again.

In a flash, it changed into a familiar female form, entirely silver.

It was identical to Kaiwen, wearing the very same white lab coat and ornament set she had now, differing only in lacking color.

And very quickly.

This "Kaiwen's" silver body was soon colored in, her demeanor quickly adjusted, suddenly becoming indistinguishable from the Kaiwen sitting on the grass, serving as a pillow for the already asleep Lin Guang, and the emerald green eyes in their flickering were imbued with the usual cold demeanor.

The two bodies shared no communication nor dialogue, not even exchanging glances, she just turned around, heading to the rippling light gate.

...

On the third floor of the research building.

Outside the infirmary, the wolf-eared girl was sitting silently, her maid outfit neatly dressed, beneath the clock.

The wall clock showed it was four-thirty in the afternoon.

She seemed to have received some message, as she left the second-floor disinfection room, specifically clearing Demonic Qi before Vishdair and Lisa, coming to the third floor.

Suddenly, the girl opened her eyes.

Without knowing when, a figure had appeared before her, wearing a conservative white long coat yet revealing shoulders and back, with particularly slender snow-white beautiful legs, holding a stack of thick paper documents.

"How are you feeling?"

Kaiwen asked nonchalantly.

"Are you asking me?"

The girl responded coolly as well, "Who else but you would know my body's condition best?"

Kaiwen didn't mind Chelina's attitude, placing the documents on the nearby table: "I never arrogantly thought I could digitalize everything, not to mention the machines here haven't been particularly adjusted, these newly collected data can only reflect a part, it still needs to be analyzed by combining your real feelings."

"..."

After a moment of silence, the girl replied softly: "No discomfort, everything is moving in a good direction."

"That's good."

Kaiwen was silent for a while, then said softly: "Your recovery speed is much faster than I imagined, the power of his inheritance surprises me, even if it's not a complete inheritance, the partial fragments alone have reached the Six-Star and even Seven-Star level."

"At this rate, you will recover soon."

"..."

After a brief silence, a trace of indistinguishable reluctance flashed in Kaiwen's eyes, but she still lowered her voice and spoke:

"Once you're healed, sever the contract with him."

"Given his character, as long as you propose it, he will agree."
