Chapter 332 The Truth 2
Jiang Xinli suddenly felt a sharp pain in her heart, as if someone were squeezing it tightly with their hand.

She slowly ran her fingers along the scar and gently kissed it.

"I hope you still remember me, and I've always looked forward to the day we meet again."

The man's kiss landed on her hair. "A few days later, my wish finally came true."

Jiang Xinli recalled the timeline, "Was it the time I was pulled into the time-space black hole?"

“Yes.” Sheng Tianze lowered his eyes and looked at her gently. “At that time, the Empire suddenly held a small thank-you banquet and invited the star lords of several rich stars and their families to attend.”

"I was so excited when I learned that you were coming, so I went to ask my father for the exact time you and your parents would arrive. But I accidentally overheard something."

"what?"

"My father and mother said that a prophecy indicates that a spacetime black hole, which occurs only once every few centuries, will appear over the empire on the day of the thank-you banquet."

"They also said that your father and mother really wanted to take you to see that spacetime black hole with your own eyes."

Jiang Xinli frowned. "And then?"

"Then, on that day, I finally saw you. You were wearing a super gorgeous and beautiful dress."

"That dress is adorned with the most precious and rarest jewels in the galaxy."

"Like the most beautiful and dazzling star, I am filled with excitement and want to stand beside this dazzling little star."

I ran towards you.

“I’m also very happy to see you. I was thinking that there was still some time before the formal dinner, so I wanted to take you to see the gift I had prepared for you for a long time, but I didn’t expect—” Sheng Tianze’s tone became serious.

"what happened?"

"On our way back to the palace, we encountered men in black. They easily killed the palace guards, who were of considerable supernatural ability level, and they wanted to kill you."

Jiang Xinli held her breath. "The man in black?"

"To be precise, they were men in black hiding in the shadows. Now that I think about it, their appearance is very similar to that of the Dark Night."

"Later, I led you out of the palace and into a secret passage for survival, but when we came out, we found ourselves above a starry river."

"Someone used space distortion and folding abilities to force us near a spacetime black hole."

"But then another group of people arrived, people in mechs and small flying vehicles."

Jiang Xinli asked in confusion, "Are they in cahoots with the men in black?"

"Judging from their clothes and superpowers, they don't seem like it, but they all want to kill you. At that time, my personal computer signal was completely cut off, and I was desperate. I remembered that I could go to another world from that spacetime black hole."

"And once the conditions are met, then one can return from that world."

"So, with nowhere else to turn, I thought I might as well jump into the spacetime black hole with you. But I didn't expect that I would later realize that the teleportation array of the spacetime black hole can only allow one person to enter at a time."

Moreover, once I have no more ties here, I might never be able to come back.

"At that time, I was only thinking about myself and completely forgot that you also have parents, who are also your ties."

The man's brows were filled with self-reproach, and his eyes reddened. "Lili, you're so young and so fragile, I can't imagine you've entered a completely new and unfamiliar world."
I should have gone with you. I shouldn't have abandoned you, leaving you alone in another world, all utterly alone.

Jiang Xinli snuggled closer to him, her voice filled with a sense of dependence, "Aze, I don't blame you."

Hua Xi once told her that male beastmen develop intelligence early. Three- or four-year-old boys can already be self-reliant.

At that time, Sheng Tianze was 7 years old and the eldest prince of the empire, so his education and upbringing were naturally different.

But no matter what, he was still a child.

Jiang Xinli: "And then what happened? I remember you once said that you suspected I was sent to ancient Earth by my parents?"

"After you jumped into the black hole, I was struck in the heart by a laser beam. Later, your parents arrived at the scene, and the men in black used teleportation to escape successfully."

"And the spacetime black hole will close and disappear shortly after you enter it."

"I only learned later that the thank-you banquet held by the Empire was specifically designed for the opening and setup of the spacetime black hole, and it was at the request of your parents."

“Even though Rich Star 3 is powerful, it is no match for the Empire—” He paused, “Lili, I don’t mean anything by it, but my father has always been arrogant and would hardly do such things for the sake of a planetary lord, unless he has something to gain from it.”

"It's highly likely that your parents and my parents made some kind of exchange back then. And the opening of the spacetime black hole also requires certain energy, which may have come from your father, my father, and some high-level individuals with special abilities in the entire empire."

"As for the spatial distortion and folding abilities that you and I suddenly encountered, I later found out that the only person who could send two people to another place at the same time without physical contact was your father."

Jiang Xinli was shocked and puzzled. "But if he can make predictions, can't he also predict that we will encounter those men in black?"

"Perhaps he foresaw it, but some things are bound to happen."

"Later I found out that those men in black didn't want to kill you, they wanted to kidnap you."

“Your parents, they must have loved you very much, but they may have foreseen something and had to make that choice, just like when you were sent to the Empire right after you were born.”

"And I later learned that the jewels on your dress were enough to allow you to live comfortably for a lifetime anywhere in the galaxy."

Jiang Xinli's mood grew heavier and heavier. "So, it's very possible that I was switched at birth, which was also something my parents did on purpose."

Sheng Tianze's eyes darkened. "If not, then Jiang Wanwan and her mother should have been executed ten thousand times over by your parents."

"Including when you were five years old, you were suddenly taken back. It wasn't because your biological parents found you. Rather, someone suddenly revealed on the StarNet that Jiang Wanwan and Lord Jiang's genes and blood types were incompatible."

"So, due to some circumstances, my parents had no choice but to take me back. However, because of the appearance of the spacetime black hole, I reappeared in the Empire with them." Jiang Xinli's eyes reddened.

"Yes, that's my guess." Sheng Tianze hugged her tighter, feeling sorry for her. "Lili, your parents did this to better protect you."

"But to protect me, they exchanged the destruction of an entire planet, and the deaths of so many orcs in the flames. This..." The girl choked back tears, unable to hold them back, and they streamed down her face.

“Lili.” Sheng Tianze gently wiped away her tears. “It’s possible that your father didn’t foresee the destruction of the entire planet.”

"That's possible."
