Oh no! I'm surrounded by female ghosts!

"Did I see wrong?"

Su Ming took a deep breath and reactivated his Cross-Shaped Eyes.

This time he looked at it even more carefully.

The instant Yu Mengnian transformed into a sword light, tearing apart the stars, there was indeed a figure hidden among them.

The figure was rather blurry and not very clear.

But the figure gave Su Ming the feeling that it was Tang Tang.

Tangtang, among the stars.

She was the first being to ascend to Her throne in human form, and she was also an absolute supporter of the old destiny.

Therefore, it's not surprising that Su Ming returned to the Stars when this future timeline didn't exist.

A century has passed, and Su Ming truly feels a sense of things having changed.

Tangtang has returned to the stars.

Yu Mengnian has probably spent tens of thousands of years in her dreams, almost stripping away all humanity and emotions.

Wen Qi, Shen Wanyu, Xu Qinghe, and Bai Xinglan are missing.

She sensed Su Ming's future self through her past self.

Wen Qi is 22 years old this year. She did not disappear in 2003; she has always existed.

She hesitated for only a second before speaking, "Your Majesty? Is that you?"

These four short words resounded like thunder in Su Ming's heart.

The figure in Yu Mengnian's dream had appeared before 2008.

At this point, game 739 had already established a "one king and twelve queens" formation.

Wen Qi could neither hear Su Ming's reply nor see Su Ming's figure. The only thing she was certain of was that the king's gaze had crossed over from the future.

"My future self has disappeared."

"That's why the king's vision extends beyond the future and back to the past."

"The fact that the king's gaze is fixed on 2008 is enough to prove that the world will inevitably undergo great changes in 2009."

With just a glance, Wen Qi deduced a great deal.

Then, she looked up at the void, as if to comfort, or as if to make a conclusion.

"Your Majesty, you need not worry that the future will change."

"Since you have appeared in the future, it proves that your gaze is part of history."

"You are not changing history, you are perfecting history."

It's a very strange feeling.

Su Ming's gaze was not a variable, but a certainty.

His every move, every action, and every guess Wen Qi made all belong to the historical trajectory.

This is the essence of the world.

Time is not an extended line, and history is not a series of progressive fragments; they are a whole, without a chronological order, only about completeness.

Within this whole, there are countless historical bubbles.

These bubbles represent the resilience of history.

Filling it in won't change the whole; it will only make the whole more complete.

Whether it's the future line or the doomsday line.

They all originated in 1996.

The only difference is that the ending of the Doomsday Line is already predetermined; it will go as far as 2026 and will not have 2027.

However, the future line has no predetermined ending; it can extend forward indefinitely.

Wen Qi was still talking to himself.

"I have something to tell the king."

"The world is missing a few people, except for you."

"I don't know who's missing, but there are definitely fewer people."

"The list of people taken in by Bureau 749 has two names on the last page: Chen Zhiwei and Su Yi."

"But we searched for a long time and still couldn't find these two people."

"I think the king should understand what's going on."

"Now, I'm giving Wang Nian some names; they are all figures from Yu Mengnian's dreams."

"Since we can't see their faces clearly, we can only screen them based on limited clues."

Wen Qi took a notebook out of the drawer.

It was filled with countless names.

They were all candidates who were most likely to become queen after going through layers of selection.

Su Ming heard Wen Qi's name, Shen Wanyu's name, Xu Qinghe's name, Tang Tang's name, and Bai Xinglan's name.

After reading all the names, Su Ming did not hear the names of Lin Jiajia, Cheng Yao, Jiang Qian, Chi Nian, or Gu Yan.

Not right.

This is very wrong.

If Wen Qi was able to screen so many people, why didn't any of Lin Jiajia's and the other four names appear?

Wen Qi didn't notice.

Or perhaps, these five people don't even exist in this future timeline.

But this future timeline was clearly initiated by advancing Lin Jiajia's favorability through missions.

If she's not around, who will you choose?

Closing the notebook, Wen Qi looked up and said, "The King should already know that everyone has disappeared."

"The king must have his own reasons for why they disappeared."

Su Ming did indeed have his own ideas.

Each time a doomsday timeline is severed, they will disappear in subsequent doomsday timelines; conversely, they will reappear in future timelines.

Why is this happening?

After thinking for a long time, Su Ming had only one answer.

This future timeline is incomplete.

The doomsday line needs to be severed.

The future timeline needs to be completed.

He needs to find the missing Lin Jiajia.

But where is Lin Jiajia?

To this day, Su Ming still has no clue whatsoever.
