The villains are redeemed, and the heroines cry and beg for forgiveness.

Gu Ran was initially puzzled as to why he was still alive, but he later discovered that he had two hearts.

The left side of his heart was indeed destroyed, but he still had the right side.

His right heart kept him alive.

However, there is still one question about his "resurrection" that he has not figured out yet.

That is, although he has two hearts, all his blood has been transferred to his sister.

Without blood, one cannot survive.

Where does the blood in his body come from?

He had been thinking about this for so many years but still couldn't figure it out. Originally, he wanted to go to Vermilion Bird City to ask Leng Feng if she knew anything about it.

However, it has been so long since it happened, and various things have prevented it from taking place.

"Didn't you find out the name of the student Leng Feng took in? The student Leng Feng originally wanted to take in was me."

Gu Ran did not hide it from Lilith, because he needed to use this matter to make Lilith believe that he was indeed a space ability user, and use it as a bargaining chip.

“The student Leng Feng took in…I think her name is Gu Qingqing…” Lilith suddenly looked up at Gu Ran, “You two share the same surname, what’s your relationship? Siblings?”

Gu Ran nodded: "That's right, she's my sister."

When Gu Qingting heard Gu Ran say "She is my sister" while standing outside the screen, she suddenly felt an urge to cry for some reason.

She murmured, "Brother, I will definitely save you, even if it costs me everything."

......

Lilith was taken aback when she heard Gu Ran's words.

"You two really are siblings."

However, she then frowned and said, "But even if you are siblings, I remember that your own human books state that even if you are siblings, there can only be one spatial ability user."

Gu Ran: "The ability crystal core can be transplanted to others, so spatial ability can also be transferred to others. Although the conditions are very strict, you already know about successful cases."

"?!"

Lilith stared at Gu Ran in shock.

"You mean... Gu Qingqing's spatial ability was transferred to her by you?!"

Although she is a succubus, and the power system of succubi is completely different from that of humans, it does not mean that she is unaware of human power.

Conversely, Lilith is arguably the most attentive to intelligence about humans among all the previous succubus generals.

If it's not your own awakened superpower, other people's superpower cores will cause a rejection reaction with your body.

This situation means that the superpower crystal core cannot be transplanted into other people who are not related by blood!

Even the success rate for blood relatives is frighteningly low.

If supernatural power crystals could be transplanted, it would be a revolutionary event for the human scientific community.

Even on the scale of the entire Human Alliance, this is definitely a matter of far-reaching impact.

At that time, humans might be able to "manufacture" superhumans in large numbers, greatly enhancing their strength.

The person who makes a significant contribution to this will undoubtedly be elevated to a divine status and remembered in history.

"You said you transplanted your spatial ability core into your sister? But why have I never heard of such a thing? And how can you prove it?" Lilith asked, frowning.

Gu Ran said calmly, "It's normal that you haven't heard of it, because you are probably the third person in this world who knows about it. Besides me and Leng Feng, you are the only other person who knows. Even my sister doesn't know."

"You don't need to worry about this technology being widely adopted and strengthening humanity, because while it is indeed possible to successfully transplant superpower crystal cores, as I mentioned before, the conditions are extremely demanding and the costs are so high that it is impossible to promote it on a large scale."

"If it's only provided to a few powerful and wealthy people, then why should I promote such technology? Besides, even if I were willing to promote it, there would probably be people who wouldn't want such technology to become widely known."

To some extent, the technology of transplanting supernatural crystal cores is a technology that is very advantageous to the powerful and wealthy.

Noble families possess unparalleled resources, but the awakening of supernatural abilities still depends on talent; not all members of the clan can possess such talent.

However, if those powerful and wealthy individuals were to acquire this technology, they would undoubtedly want to monopolize the secret while secretly searching for exceptionally talented commoners to transplant their supernatural power cores into their own clans.

As for the poor people who die after losing their superpower cores, that's not something they need to worry about.

This is why Gu Ran has kept this technology to himself and has no intention of promoting it.

He didn't even have the idea of ​​conducting experiments on his own in secret.

However, in order to gain Lilith's trust, he had no choice but to reveal this secret.

Anyway, only Heaven and Earth know, Leng Feng knows, he knows, and Lilith knows.

Moreover, Lilith wasn't present to witness him perform the surgery and transfuse blood to her sister, unlike Leng Feng, and therefore didn't know the details.

Furthermore, given Lilith's succubus identity, it would be extremely difficult for her to gain the trust of humans. Even if she were to reveal this secret, it's unlikely anyone would believe her.

Therefore, Gu Ran doesn't need to worry about her leaking this information after she finds out.

Back then, it was indeed only the three of them who knew, but now, the powerful figures outside the light screen come from more than a dozen main cities of the Human Alliance.

Their knowledge means...

Those powerful individuals' eyes lit up at that moment.

Yes, they are the powerful and wealthy families that Gu Ran mentioned.

Previously, they had been focused on Gu Ran's experiences and hadn't thought about this matter.

Or perhaps some people thought of it, but they didn't show it at all.

It's very likely that, just as Gu Ran said, he'll "eat it all by himself."

They might even be secretly hoping that no one else will pay attention to this matter.

However, they can only verify this after they kill Gu Ran.

Gu Ran, inside the core of the Ark, calmly observed the people outside.

How could he not see through their little scheme?

But they will likely be disappointed because the "knowledge" they have just learned may not have a chance to be used.

......

In the light screen.

Gu Ran continued, "I have no reason to lie to you about this, and I would never stoop to telling such a lie."

Lilith was starting to believe it.

It wasn't entirely because Gu Ran's strength was so exceptional that he disdained to tell such a lie.

It was also because she understood Gu Ran's personality.

Gu Ran is definitely not that kind of person.

"Fine, even if what you're saying is true, so what?"

Lilith is completely different now compared to before.

She was no longer so irritable, and unconsciously let go of her annoyance.

Gu Ran continued the previous topic, saying, "I used to be a spatial ability user. This is the information I want to emphasize, because it is not only related to my past, but may also be related to your Abyss's Pandora's Box."

"You said you felt that Xue Xiling was the 'key' to opening Pandora's box, but that was just a feeling... and then you felt that I was the real 'key,' but it was still just a feeling."

Feelings are different, but they are certainly connected. Everything in the world is interconnected, let alone things that share the same name. But have you noticed the differences and connections between them?

"What are the differences and connections between them?" Lilith frowned in deep thought.

Gu Ran sighed: "Although you didn't tell me, if I'm not guessing, your Demon General's promotion should be related to some kind of world rule of the Abyss, and Pandora's Box should also be related to some kind of world rule of the Abyss."

"World rules...Do you think there's anything in common between me and Xue Xiling? Or rather, any connection to Pandora's Box?"

Lilith followed Gu Ran's train of thought, but still couldn't come up with anything and came up empty-handed.

Moreover, as she pondered, she felt her brain was about to stop working.

"Fine, just tell me straight, no need to play games with me." Lilith gave up.

Gu Ran didn't think Lilith was stupid; this succubus was quite cunning.

However, his guess was indeed a bit of a leap in thinking; if one didn't have his experience and knowledge, it would be difficult for an ordinary person to come up with it.

"You should have already investigated Xue Xiling's abilities by now... You even experienced her abilities firsthand. When we fought in that floating city outside Canglong City, her abilities were very accurately applied to you."

"Her superpower is related to time, and it is a very rare superpower. If there were a time superpower crystal core, her superpower would be considered a lower-level time superpower. However, this world does not have such a heaven-defying ability as time superpower."

"So her superpower didn't suppress her superior superpower. Her superpower was very powerful, but of course, the side effects were also very significant... As for the superpower I awakened, it was a spatial superpower. Although I transplanted the superpower core to my sister, it doesn't change the fact that I was indeed once a spatial superpower user."

"Time...and space are the foundation of the rules that make up a world. They are the two most important rules of a world. Without time and space, there is no world. And the two people you feel can be the keys to opening Pandora's box are Xue Xiling and me."

“One is a time-related ability user, and the other is a space-related ability user. Xue Xiling’s ability just happens to be not a true time-related ability, and it is not as good as my space-related ability. You just happened to ‘misunderstand’ her first, and after meeting me, you just happened to feel that I am the real ‘key’. Don’t you think this is too much of a coincidence?”

Gu Ran's words stunned Lilith.

In an instant, it was as if a thunderclap resounded in her mind.

Don't you think this is too much of a coincidence?

Yes, Xue Xiling... Gu Ran... I didn't realize that the order of events could be like this?

Lilith was filled with disbelief.
