Chapter 93: Playing Memories
Night Lan laid out the future of time and space to Ling Miao and a few others.
Neko Shinna and Star Yoon were both in cloud cuckooland, seemingly oblivious to the importance of this matter.
After all, the two of them liked cooking and slacking off respectively, so they weren’t particularly interested in these mysterious fields.
It wasn’t like any of this was relevant to their daily lives, anyway.
But Ling Miao got it right away.
She was responsible for teaching Night Lan and the others about the basics of being a Night Watcher. Naturally, she had some understanding and experience in this field.
Aside from drawing, she paid particular attention to matters related to stars and star eclipses.
For example, Ling Miao often surfed the Night Watcher website, keeping up with real-time information, which meant she had a clear understanding of the mysteries of power.
Now, Night Lan mentioned something about the future of time and space.
Words like that didn’t come from just any old Star Holder.
Ling Miao had only seen such terms in various fantastical works.
“Night Lan, what’s going on here? Are you kidding me?”
“How could I be kidding? What I’m saying is true! I just haven’t told you guys until now. There’s a saying—timing is everything!”
“But this is outrageous…”
Now, Ling Miao wanted to place a hand on Night Lan’s forehead to see if she was sick or feverish.
Fantasizing about impossible phenomena was a serious matter for a Star Holder.
It could even lead to turning into a Star Eclipse.
To calm her down, Night Lan placed her hand on Ling Miao’s head.
“To normal Night Watchers, this is indeed very outrageous. But I’m not a typical Night Watcher.”
“What are you talking about, stupid Night Lan? You mean to say you’re more powerful than all the Night Watchers? Even if you’ve become the headquarters’ Sunlight, you can’t underestimate the depth of the Night Watchers. Maybe there are still legendary figures hiding in plain sight—always show respect, okay?”
Ling Miao lectured Night Lan, a bit worried that she might go overboard and provoke other extremely powerful figures.
That would definitely earn her a scolding.
Even if Ling Miao was easygoing, she wouldn’t sit idly by while Night Lan caused trouble.
So far, Ling Miao had no idea how Night Lan became a headquarters’ Sunlight.
Could she really be more powerful than all the Night Watchers?
Night Lan curled her lips into a subtle smile.
“Ling Miao, since you know so much about Night Watchers, you must know what a Breakthrough Star means, right?”
“Woah? Does Night Lan mean you’re the Breakthrough Star holder?” Ling Miao’s expression was full of puzzlement.
“Yes! You got it! Didn’t expect it, huh?”
Ling Miao fell silent for a moment, then suddenly was at a loss for words.
She naturally trusted Night Lan completely.
No matter what Night Lan said, she believed almost anything.
Even if she got tricked, she’d just find a way to get back at Night Lan later.
Ling Miao’s methods of revenge were no joke.
If it worked out, it would surely make Night Lan cry “ouchie oopsie” on her bed.
The concept of a Breakthrough Star, though, was pretty far outside the norm.
It temporarily left Ling Miao unable to accept this truth.
Could it be that this whole time, she had been bullying someone who could become an unparalleled powerhouse with limitless potential?
However, looking at Night Lan’s smug face, it was hard to connect her with an ultimate master.
There was no way she would ever have any feelings of respect.
The only thing she wanted was to lay her flat on the bed and bully her thoroughly.
Just then, Bai Yu spoke up with a faint smile.
“It’s true, I was once close to d*ath, but Night Lan saved me from the brink.”
Ling Miao’s eyes widened instantly.
“So, I alone was kept in the dark? This is so unfair!”
Neko Shinna and Star Yoon raised their hands weakly and added, “And us too…”
Ling Miao ignored the two little lovelies trying to draw attention and continued to glare angrily at Night Lan.
“Spill everything you’re keeping from me already!”
“Well, it’s not that big a deal, really…”
Night Lan laughed awkwardly, clearly uncomfortable.
Now, Night Star and Night Lan were actually the same person.
With so many identities, it was a long story to tell.
Where to even begin?
Night Lan was pretty lazy about it.
Their experiences were enough to fill an entire book.
Saying it all bit by bit was torture for her throat.
Who was going to solve her dehydration problem?
She certainly didn’t want to drink water nonstop.
Maybe she should kiss a girl next to her to moisten her mouth?
Hmm…
Perhaps that wasn’t such a bad idea.
Seeing Night Lan’s dilemma, Luo Xi decided to step in and help.
“Never mind the details, just sit and watch.”
Luo Xi made everyone sit down and waved her hand, creating a shimmering light that quickly became a clear image.
“It’s easier to play memories than to describe them.”
Of course, there was an even faster way.
That was to compress a memory and transfer it directly into the minds of the others, letting them digest the information gradually.
But that would be uninteresting.
There was still some time before the Wish Princess fully recovered.
Night Lan could enjoy some light-hearted daily life for a while.
Thus, the method of passing time shouldn’t be too boring.
Luo Xi understood this well.
Playing those events in a dynamic way was perfect.
With sound and visuals, they could discuss as they watched, just like watching a movie together.
This was one of the best ways to k*ll time.
But when Night Lan saw this, she felt a bit panicky.
While she didn’t mind her experiences being shown in a moving picture format,
she didn’t want to reveal some of her past misdeeds!
Exposing them would be mortifying!
Before Night Lan could warn everyone, Luo Xi leaned in with a hushed whisper.
“Don’t worry, I won’t expose anything you don’t want exposed.”
Feeling Luo Xi’s warm breath on her ear, Night Lan’s tense body relaxed, and her heart fluttered.
Meanwhile, she felt relieved.
“That’s good. If there are any scenes that embarrass me, I’m holding you accountable. Prepare yourself for severe punishment!”
Earlier, Luo Xi was the aggressive one.
Now, Night Lan planned to take the lead.
All the girls who had tried to pin her down would be getting their comeuppance!
Luo Xi’s debts would be settled sooner or later!
Securing her by the collar and keeping her close was just the beginning!
Faced with Night Lan’s taunt, Luo Xi blinked calmly.
“I’ll wait.”
Now, Night Lan’s heart began to race.
How could someone who seemed so pure and restrained be so tempting?
She really wanted to pounce on Luo Xi right away!
Of course, there were a few young loli girls present. It was better not to corrupt them too early.
