Jackie Chan Adventures: I, the Mirror God, Master of Fear

Chapter 289 Future Xiaoyu
And in San Francisco, at the end of January.

The city has not yet fully recovered from the calamities of the sheep-eating beasts and the plague.

Of those who became sheep-eating beasts, 90% were indeed saved, but those who died from the plague could not be brought back to life.

Fear, apprehension, and confusion enveloped the city.

The streets were sparsely populated, and the people walking by were all in a hurry, their faces full of worry.

If it weren't for the increasing number of law enforcement officers recently, perhaps zero-dollar shopping would have replaced going to work long ago, and this city would have already begun to fall into disrepair.

Xiaoyu looked at the desolate street. She remembered that when she first came to this city, it was this same street, bustling with activity as taxis passed by. But now...
Xiaoyu's eyes glazed over for a moment, then she pursed her lips and silently walked toward the antique shop.

They say that chaotic times breed monsters and demons, and San Francisco has recently started having vampires appear.

Xiaoyu asked the evil god, and he said that the vampires here are wild, not farmed by the evil god.

The evil god has no intention of letting vampires enter the human world.

Xiaoyu is currently clearing out the vampires and preparing to return to the antique shop.

【Xiaoyu.】

A sense of calling came over her, and Xiaoyu focused her attention on her mind, hoping to speak with a slightly pleasant tone.

Order has been restored!

"Hmm? Uh~"

Before Xiaoyu could say anything, because of this slight distraction, she was grabbed from behind, her mouth covered with one hand, and dragged into the alley.

Xiaoyu snapped out of her daze, her brows furrowing slightly, but the next moment, a look of disbelief appeared in her eyes, and the magic power within her body slowly subsided.

"Xiaoyu, there's no time to explain, we need to go to a safe place."

A young woman's voice appeared, her tone slightly flustered, as she carried her and ran forward.

After passing through an alley, he whistled, took Xiaoyu into a taxi, and drove away quickly.

On the bus, the woman, dressed all in black, wearing a baseball cap and sunglasses, and looking to be about eighteen or nineteen years old, still seemed a little nervous and kept looking back.

Xiaoyu calmly sized up the woman, relaxed against the leather backrest, and calmly asked, "Who are you? One of my relatives?"

The girl's incredibly calm voice startled the woman. She seemed to finally realize something and turned her head sharply.

He's 1.53 meters tall, has a middle-parted fringe, and wears an orange hoodie—he's definitely the person I've been looking for.

However, a strand of white hair at her temple was slightly jarring. The woman tried to recall when she had ever dyed her hair.

Moreover, the girl was too calm; her eyes showed no panic at all, nor even much curiosity, that one might expect from someone who had been tied up.

This is too strange.

However, some urgent matters made her overlook these abnormalities. She looked around, leaned closer to Xiaoyu, and whispered, "I am you, but you in the future."

Xiao Yu, who had been relatively calm, suddenly frowned: "You've altered the History of Time?"

The girl's very serious voice stunned Da Yu. The strange feeling that had been building up from earlier finally forced her to face the problem.

"What do you know? Also, you are Chen Xiaoyu, and today is January 25th, 2003, right?"

Da Yu's voice became somewhat cautious, and seeing the girl's serious gaze, she couldn't help but sit up straight.

Xiaoyu ignored him and stared at Dayu, asking again, "Did you revise the History of Time?"

After the Xiaofeng incident, he also saw the passage of time in Lope's legacy, but no matter what kind of legacy the history of time came from, there was one taboo: never try to modify the passage of time.

Xiaoyu became serious, and the faint magical pressure emanating from her made Dayu freeze. She looked blankly at her six-year-younger self, her eyes momentarily dazed. What's going on?
In my expectations, shouldn't Xiaoyu be surprised and exclaim how cool it is that she can whistle? And then, in order to prove her identity, shouldn't she be required to recite Uncle Long's nagging things that she is familiar with, such as "Don't talk to strangers, don't chew with your mouth open, don't spit on the ground," before she will believe her?

What's wrong with this now?
Xiaoyu raised her hand, and a talisman appeared. It was a calming talisman, which could make a person's mind more agile and their heart more at peace.

The runes floating in mid-air, the faint aura of magic, the unexpected desolation of the city—all of this finally brought Da Yu back to her senses.

"The history book of time? I did modify it, but didn't you modify it too?" Da Yu asked, frowning.

She felt that this world was very strange, and she also felt that Xiaoyu in front of her was very strange.

Xiaoyu paused slightly, pondered for a moment, and then directly affixed the rune in her hand to Dayu's body, saying, "It's been modified? You weren't affected by the backlash? Tell me everything you know about the history books of time and time travel."

Da Yu felt the tangled mess in her mind being quickly straightened out by a strange force.

She seemed to realize that she hadn't come from the past? At least, not from the past of her world.

"Tell me the date first."

"January 30, 2003, tomorrow is Lunar New Year's Eve."

"I'm late!" Da Yu's face showed a hint of anxiety, but with the help of those calm eyes and the calming talisman, she gradually regained her composure.

He quickly recounted everything he knew about the whole story.

"In 00, I came to San Francisco intending to live with Uncle Jackie for a year. Then the Twelve Talismans appeared. Their master was called Shendu. Only when all twelve talismans were gathered could it transform from a stone sculpture into a demon. At the end of 00, because the Tiger Talisman split Uncle Jackie into two people, he brought the twelve talismans to the evil dragon, and Shendu was resurrected."

“But my father created magic that allowed us to remove the talisman from his body. In the end, I removed the rat talisman from his body and then destroyed him with Dragon Blast.”

"In 01, he possessed Valmont and began to unleash the eight great demons, but we sealed them all away. In the end, we banished Shendu back to Hell."

"But only a few days had passed, and we hadn't even returned from Hong Kong when, on New Year's Day, the Holy Lord rose again from hell and possessed Uncle Long."
"I turned the pages of history, rewriting it, bringing back the age of demons. Because I tore off a fragment from that history, I did not become a slave to the dragon."

"I found the members of the Dragon Team, resealed the eight great demons, and changed history back to the right track."

"In the following years, we sealed away many monsters. In 2008, I became the sheriff of District 13. In 2009, the little demon dragon appeared and summoned the evil dragons raised by Shendu, which ruled the world and turned that era into the era of dragons."

“Now that Daddy and Uncle Dragon have been captured, if I cannot destroy the Holy Lord’s Dragon Fang when the bell tolls, the evil dragon will be resurrected, and Uncle Dragon and Daddy will be doomed.”

Da Yu spoke very quickly and as concisely as possible, explaining everything that would happen in the future.

She caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of her eye, and although she still felt very strange, she immediately said, "And the little demon dragon was afraid that I would change history, so he followed me to this era. That's why I came to find you. Because if you are killed, then I will cease to exist, and Uncle Dragon and Old Man will definitely die."

"The little devil dragon is coming, stay close to me!"

As Da Yu spoke, she prepared to pick up Xiao Yu and jump out of the car.

At the same time, the sound of a heavy object falling on the roof of the taxi was heard, followed by a pair of dragon claws suddenly plunging into the roof and tearing it open with force, leaving a large hole in the roof.

A dark green dragon head appeared, a faint flame flickering at the corner of its mouth, and grinned: "Found you~ You guys!"

But at that moment, Da Yu felt as if she were holding a huge rock, completely motionless, as the vehicle crashed out of control onto the roadside, and the scorching heat from above suddenly assaulted her.

Although there was a calming talisman, it still gave Da Yu a sudden shock.

Done
However, the girl ignored these things and quickly thought about everything Da Yu had just said.

After piecing things together in her mind, she realized that the two past experiences seemed to have branched into two timelines starting from the chicken charm incident after she arrived in San Francisco.

Because of what?
Or is it a parallel world unfolding a different future?
Is the world that the Great Jade has come from, a future where humanity will win everything?

Bear~
Flames erupted, filling the taxi with intense heat.

Xiaoyu gently raised her head and met the gaze of the smug son of the evil dragon.

The smile of the future demon dragon gradually disappeared.
