447: Chapter 447 Memories of a Past Life

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire venue was in an uproar.

The live stream chat exploded instantly.

Is ZERO the mastermind preventing the Space-Time Rift from closing?

This, this, this...

Luo Qinghe continued to explain: "Judging by the fact that ZERO could manipulate the Demonic Beast army during our Luo family's defense battle, there really seems to be quite a connection—because Demonic Beasts are generated precisely from the Space-Time Rift."

"As for what the Demon Abyss Cult did before, such as causing the demonization of Spirit Beasts, disrupting the world order, assassinations, and so on—"

"They were actually all done by ZERO! Its goal was to prevent the Demon Abyss Cult from closing the Space-Time Rift!"

"Because once the Space-Time Rift is closed, it cannot let its true form descend!"

This statement was a mix of truth and falsehood.

The Demon Abyss Cult had indeed done many bad things in the past, but now, everything was being pushed onto ZERO.

Don't you, ZERO, like to remain silent?

That's perfect; silence is golden, so let you take the blame for everything first.

This move was truly vicious!

Strike while you are down;

Take advantage of your silence to make you take the blame!

Sure enough, this time ZERO could not sit still.

That afternoon at 2:30, people under ZERO held an emergency press conference.

The press conference was hosted by the strongest Beast Tamer of Eagle Country—Douglas.

This former third strongest person in the world had now become a loyal follower of ZERO.

He stood in front of the camera, his face livid, strongly condemning the Dragon Country and the Demon Abyss Cult for colluding with each other.

"They clearly did it themselves, yet they dare not admit it!"

"The crimes committed by the Demon Abyss Cult over the centuries are too numerous to record! And now they actually want to push everything onto Lord ZERO? Ridiculous!"

"You even believe such nonsense?"

"To stop Lord ZERO's progress, they actually managed to concoct such an outrageous excuse."

"And talking about preventing the Space-Time Rift from closing—why don't you just say that Lord ZERO is actually the mastermind behind the generation of Demonic Beasts?"

"If you believe this, you might as well believe that I am Qin Shi Huang!"

Douglas's words caused a burst of laughter—at least at the press conference venue.

But on the internet, the reaction was completely different.

In fact, what everyone cares about is not who is right.

But whether the Space-Time Rift can actually be closed.

They only care about whether this world can return to how it was.

Whether they can return to an era without the threat of Demonic Beasts, and whether life can get back on track.

As for who is right or wrong, who is righteous or evil—that is not important; what matters is the result.

At this point, a war of words broke out on the internet.

Netizens supporting the Dragon Country and those supporting ZERO clashed fiercely, attacking each other and exposing each other's shortcomings.

In between, there were also some self-proclaimed neutral parties, conspiracy theorists, and trolls—the entire internet was a mess.

Of course, all of this had nothing to do with Chen Yi.

At least for the time being.

Naturally, he did not think that such an announcement would be enough to bring down ZERO.

ZERO's Foundation lay in absolute power, not public support.

But it would definitely increase the resistance for ZERO to attack the Dragon Country significantly!

At least those countries that were still planning to help ZERO would now be more cautious!

Taking advantage of this opportunity, he could then implement his next plan.

But before that, he had to finish the most urgent matter first.

In the Luo family's specially prepared quiet room.

Chen Yi, Hua Liuli, and Black Rose sat facing each other.

The quiet room was set up with multiple barriers to prevent outside interference.

"Rose, are you ready?"

Hua Liuli asked, her expression becoming rarely serious.

She had once promised Chen Yi that she would help Black Rose recover her memories of her past life.

Now that there was time, she naturally had to keep her word.

Black Rose took a deep breath and nodded: "I am ready!"

She had always felt confused about her past.

As the Demon Emperor, she possessed powerful strength, but her memories were incomplete, and she always felt that an important piece of her life was missing.

Now, it was finally going to be complete!

"Good! Then let's begin!"

Hua Liuli raised her hand and snapped her fingers.

The seal on her past memories disappeared instantly.

"Ah—"

A massive amount of memory flooded into Black Rose's mind, instantly breaching the dam of her consciousness.

She let out an exclamation, her body trembling violently, holding her head with both hands, a painful expression appearing on her face.

Chen Yi instinctively wanted to step forward, but was stopped by Hua Liuli.

"Let her endure it herself!"

Hua Liuli said softly, "This is her memory, her past; she must face it herself."

Chen Yi nodded, but his eyes were full of worry.

The torrent of memories lasted for about three minutes.

For Black Rose, it felt as if she had experienced three lifetimes.

She slowly raised her head, her eyes filled with tears.

Her pupils dilated suddenly, looking at Chen Yi with an expression of disbelief.

The expression seemed to be saying: "It's you?"

No wonder she didn't know why, she always felt like she had forgotten something especially important—

No wonder from the first moment she saw Chen Yi, she had a familiar feeling—

No wonder she would develop an inexplicable trust and closeness toward Chen Yi—

She didn't expect that she had already met Chen Yi long ago!

Instantly, countless emotions and tears welled up in her heart.

So, her destiny had long been bound to Chen Yi.

That youth she caught a glimpse of had become the only light in her heart.

Chen Yi had also never forgotten her, and had even found her again.

How wondrous fate is!

The memories of two lifetimes overlapped at this moment.

The innocence of the past and the admiration of the present merged into one!

Chen Yi was definitely her destined one, an existence she could not miss in this lifetime!

Black Rose walked up to Chen Yi.

She didn't speak, just opened her arms and hugged him tightly.

Tears soaked Chen Yi's shoulder.

Chen Yi gently patted her back and said softly: "It's okay—it's all in the past."

Just then, the System's notification sound rang in his mind.

[Ding! Black Rose favorability + 1 point!]

[Current favorability: 100 points!]

[Ding! Black Rose's favorability has reached 100 points. Congratulations to the Host for perfectly capturing the heart of the Spirit Beast Girl!]

[Reward: Enhancement Points + 300!]

[Reward: Special Skill—Rose Garden!]

[Rose Garden is the exclusive skill of the Spirit Beast Rose Spirit; the Host cannot use it!]

Chen Yi hadn't finished reading the System notification.

Immediately after, there was another special System notification!

[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for raising the Demon Emperor girl's favorability to 100 points for the first time!]

[Hereby rewarding SSS-Rank Talent—Elemental Resonance!]

[Effect: When the Host's Contracted Spirit Beast Cultivates with a heaven and earth spiritual treasure of the same attribute, the amplification effect is increased to ten times the original!]

"Holy crap? There's this reward too?"

Chen Yi was stunned.

He didn't expect another SSS-Rank Talent!

And it looked like a talent that could allow the Spirit Beast Girls to level up quickly?

Elemental Resonance—

Ten times the amplification effect—

This is great, this is exactly what is needed right now!

Facing ZERO and the world malice true form that is about to descend, what they lack most is time!

If there is a way to make The girls improve their strength quickly, then the chances of winning will be greatly increased!
