The vicious female supporting role is posted in the opposite direction by the cub

The teacher's words were like a bolt of lightning in the night, instantly dispelling the long-standing confusion in Yan Yueqing's heart!
She had vaguely sensed this idea, but had never been able to grasp it clearly.

At this moment, Gu Shouzhou's words revealed the truth, as if the clouds had parted to reveal the sun!

"What the teacher means is..." Yan Yueqing's voice rose slightly with excitement, her eyes shining brightly, "Jiang Ke took a risk five years ago, not just because of my existence, but because she or the forces behind her sensed that a force capable of overturning their entire plan was disrupting the timeline?"

"Are they afraid that this force will eventually completely change the 'predetermined future' that is in their favor, thwarting their plans? So, they spared no expense to try to completely eliminate me and forcibly 'revert' everything to the 'right track' they had set before the timeline was completely altered and the force truly took effect?"

She took a deep breath: "They are... racing against time, trying to eliminate the biggest variable—me—before that life-changing force can fully take effect?"

“That’s exactly right!” Gu Shouzhou nodded slowly, his gaze piercing through the layers of conspiracy. “This is the most logical deduction.”

“The dramatic disturbances in the timeline are not entirely unknowable to certain beings who are proficient in ancient prophecies, astrology and divination, or who have a profound understanding of the fundamental rules of the world. Just like the undercurrents beneath a calm lake, a keen fisherman can always sense them in advance.”

"Jiang Ke, or the real mastermind behind her, must have sensed the enormous threat posed by this disturbance originating from the 'future' in some way. They cannot pinpoint the exact source of the disturbance, but based on instinct or some guidance, they are absolutely certain that the biggest variable lies within you—Jiang Xiaoxing!"

"Therefore, they chose the most direct, violent, and effective method—to completely eliminate you, the 'core variable,' before you were fully developed, before you truly awakened and threatened them! This also perfectly explains why they dared to take action against you five years ago, before you posed a real threat to Jiang Ke."

"Because, in their view, 'time' is no longer on their side! The window of opportunity that the force that disrupts time has given them to 'correct their mistakes' is closing rapidly! They are... executing the 'destiny' they have in mind before 'fate' can be changed!"

A bone-chilling cold instantly rose from the soles of Yan Yueqing's feet, coiling around her spine like a cold, venomous snake and spreading to her limbs and bones.

That's it!

Jiang Ke's premature attack was actually due to the heaven-defying act of Jun Li, who would love her deeply in the future, in order to change her tragic fate. Instead, it was like a searchlight, exposing her as a "variable" to the enemy's guns in advance!

Her past misfortunes became the fuse that ignited her future hopes!

How cruel is this cycle of cause and effect?

However, beneath the bone-chilling cold was not despair, but rather Jun Li's love, which erupted like volcanic lava, and his own burning and unwavering determination!

Understanding the logic behind the enemy's actions is equivalent to grasping the key to counterattack! "I see... I see!"

Yan Yueqing murmured to herself, the confusion and horror in her eyes quickly fading away, replaced by a clear, icy, and sharp edge.

"So, after Jiang Ke's failed attempt five years ago, her sudden disappearance and vanishing without a trace might also be related to this? Her premature actions not only exposed herself, but may also have disrupted the entire plan that she and the forces behind her had meticulously laid out."
And my mother… was able to quickly stabilize the situation after Jiang Ke's attack, and even rise to power with some help, taking control of the Jiang family. This seemingly abrupt turn of events, perhaps… was precisely the result of this temporal force attempting to change the future, intervening by chance? Had the butterfly's wings already stirred up a storm?

Seeing that the flames burning in his disciple's eyes were not those of fear, but rather the burning fighting spirit and desire to control his destiny after understanding the truth, a barely perceptible trace of relief finally appeared on Gu Shouzhou's serious face.

He nodded slightly.

"Cause and effect are intertwined, linked together, and mysterious and unpredictable. The 'transformation of time' you experienced is the 'effect' for you—it caused you to suffer calamity in advance, severely injuring your soul and leaving you with a near-death experience;
But within this long-running conspiracy, it is also a crucial 'cause'—it allows you to glimpse the truth on the brink of life and death, to be reborn from the ashes, and ultimately to return with all-knowing eyes! The balance and the price involved are so intricate that a single move can affect the entire situation, a mystery beyond comprehension.

He stood up, put his hands behind his back, and looked up at the sky again, his voice sounding as if it came from the ages: "Little Star, in recent years, I have often sat on this rock and looked up at the Milky Way."

The topic suddenly shifted, revealing a profound cosmic perspective: "The sun, moon, and stars rise in the east and set in the west, seemingly unchanging throughout the ages, but in reality, they move along predetermined trajectories in the vast universe every moment. Billions of stars each have their own place and their own path. The so-called 'destiny trajectory' is like the trajectory of these stars. By observing the stars, we can know the changes of the seasons and glimpse the general trend."

Five years ago, the trajectory of your destiny star underwent a violent deflection, its light dimming abruptly and nearly extinguishing. Yet, amidst the intersecting orbits, it was forcibly pulled back by a powerful and unfamiliar gravitational force onto a path... one that shouldn't have existed. This is the reflection of your experienced "fate-altering" in the celestial sphere.

Yan Yueqing listened intently, as if she could also see the perilous trajectory of a star in the vast sea of ​​stars.

Gu Shouzhou withdrew his gaze and looked at Yan Yueqing again, his eyes deep and unfathomable.

"Having observed the stars for many years, my deepest realization is that everything in the world operates according to a certain order. Many things you think are 'accidents' or 'coincidences,' or even situations you try your best to 'reverse,' may, upon closer examination, be part of a grand 'natural order' that has already been woven together."

Just as winter snow may seem to break bamboo, it actually accumulates the strength for breaking through the soil in spring; a flood may destroy fields and houses, but it also brings fertile mud to nourish all things. Perhaps 'change' itself is part of 'destiny'.

He walked up to Yan Yueqing, his gaze gentle yet powerful, dispelling the gloom that had risen in her heart because of this fatalistic view.

"Do not misunderstand my meaning. Saying 'the way of heaven is predetermined' does not mean you should sit idly by and submit to so-called 'fate.' On the contrary, recognizing the general trend and understanding that certain grand trajectories cannot be completely reversed by one's own power is to make you more clear-headed! To make you understand that instead of exhausting your energy to fight against the unstoppable torrent of the great trend, like a surging galaxy, it is better to focus your wisdom and strength on the present moment that you can control! Focus on the 'trajectories and details' that you can influence!" (End of this chapter)
