Chapter 74 Fu Xuan: Qing Que, Qing Yuan is your illegitimate daughter!
Chapter 74 Fu Xuan: Qing Que, Qing Yuan is your illegitimate daughter!
Fu Xuan originally valued Qing Que highly and wanted to help her understand this matter so that she could work properly.
So they simply used the Qiong Guan Formation to deduce the ins and outs of the matter, but it would have been better if they hadn't tried to deduce it at all, because as soon as they did, a big problem arose.
Ultimately, Fu Xuan reported the matter to the Divine Strategy Bureau.
Meanwhile, the Star Core Hunters also arrived at the Divine Strategy Mansion, hoping to make a deal with Hua. After much deliberation, Jing Yuan finally dialed a number and called the Marshal's Mansion.
Upon hearing this, Hua watched the video and tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table, lost in thought for a long time.
Coming from the future—this is truly unbelievable.
"Qingyuan...Yuan, is that the name I gave her?"
If that's the case, then Hua feels that she will definitely raise the other person as her daughter in the future.
However, this is only a hypothesis at this point, and the specific situation still needs further clarification.
Wash the heart of the car; the Starry Sky Train hovers silently in space.
Qingyuan was eating hotpot and singing with Xing, while everyone else went out.
"Passenger Qingyuan, someone is looking for you!"
"So, you are Qingyuan."
Qingyuan turned her head and looked at the other person's clothes and face. She asked uncertainly.
"Are you...Hua?"
"You know me? That makes things much simpler. I need you to come with me to Immortal Boat Luofu to confirm some things."
"I never expected that I could get the Marshal to come to me personally. Can I refuse to go with you?"
Hua said with a calm expression, "Then I'll have to offend you."
"Go outside to fight, Pam will be sad if you break this place."
"Can."
------
In the starry sky, streaks of bright red flames appeared on Qingyuan's body, suppressing her power.
The design is misleading!
In the end, only a ring of extremely high-quality void energy enveloped her.
Hmph, let's just stay here and see who outlasts whom.
Hua hesitated for only a moment before reaching out and grabbing it, without even adding any power of destiny.
In the end, Qingyuan, still unaware of the reason, withdrew her power of destiny, which made Hua even more certain of her guess.
On the celestial boat Luofu, Qingque waited anxiously. She recalled the past few days and never imagined things would develop this way...
(The following content was generated by AI. My own writing wasn't this odd. Anyway, let's wait for the remake, which will probably be in about three months. Until then, please bear with it.)
A few days ago, on the observation platform, the air seemed to be gripped by an invisible force, so stagnant that it was unsettling.
The massive Qiong Guan Formation slowly began to operate under Fu Xuan's precise control.
The vast star trails and mysterious divination symbols flowed across the ground and in the air, illuminating the few life lines that were highlighted in the center with exquisite detail.
The most striking feature was the bright silver lifeline, which shimmered with starlight and a pale golden luster, making it exceptionally dazzling and also exceptionally...isolated in the array's star map.
It deftly and decisively bypassed the apricot and light blue life lines that represented the sparrow parents, which were closely intertwined, without creating the slightest ripple of intersection, as if the couple's life trajectories existed in a completely parallel space-time.
However, its other end is firmly and without deviation connected to the blue lifeline representing the Azure Bird in a way that transcends ordinary blood ties and is almost an essential anchor.
Fu Xuan opened his Dharma Eyes fully, their pinkish-purple light flowing, discerning the logic behind this unusual connection.
In the Immortal Ship Alliance, the balance of the number of immortal beings is the unshakable cornerstone of the survival of civilization, and the strict control over the birth of life is engraved in the most core chapter of the law.
For civil servants, having a child without permission is a sin second only to falling into demonic possession.
She slowly turned around, her gaze falling on Qingque, whose face had turned deathly pale, as if it were a perfectly calibrated scale.
There was little personal emotion in that gaze; rather, it reflected the prudence and severity of a diviner, a law enforcer.
"The formation is clearly and accurately depicted."
Fu Xuan's voice was clear and cold, each word distinct on the silent observation platform: "The fate line of the Azure Kite is completely detached from the fate of your parents, yet its very existence is firmly tied to you."
Such a fate line pattern, which directly anchors to oneself and avoids one's parents, is in accordance with conventional fortune-telling and the laws governing the household registration system...
She paused briefly, and this short silence felt incredibly heavy amidst the sudden, rapid heartbeats of the sparrow parents.
"It is a clear sign of bloodline and offspring."
Qingque's lips twitched, but she couldn't make a sound. She only felt a chill run from the soles of her feet to the top of her head.
Fu Xuan looked directly at her and clearly stated a judgment that, within the context of the Immortal Ship society, was enough to cause a family upheaval:
"Qingque, based on the formation's appearance, this woman, Qingyuan, is very likely your daughter—born in violation of the Immortal Ship's birth laws."
"Violating the law?! Having been conceived in secret?!"
Sparrow Mom's scream suddenly tore through the frozen air. The color drained from her face in an instant, replaced by a flush of anger and fear.
She rushed towards Qingque almost without hesitation, grabbing her daughter's shoulders tightly with both hands.
Her fingertips turned white from the force, and her voice distorted and went off-key from the extreme emotional impact: "Sparrow! Are you crazy?! How dare you?!"
You don't care about your secure job at all! When did this happen?!
How could you possibly hide it from the Tabuan's regular medical checkups?!
Tell me! Who is that man?!
Did he force you? Or did you...?
She dared not think any further; a tremendous fear gripped her, chilling her to the bone.
Sparrow's father was also completely panicked. As a former Yunqi Army soldier, he knew better than his wife how terrible the consequences of violating this ironclad rule as a civil servant could be.
His eyes were filled with unprecedented terror and disbelief as he looked at his daughter, his voice trembling: "Que'er! You, you're so foolish!"
This isn't something that can be settled by simply beating someone up behind closed doors! If the Grand Diviner, the Earthly Balance Commissioner… find out, your life is over!
He paced anxiously, wanting to pull his emotionally distraught wife away, but also feeling that his daughter might have made an irreparable mistake. Beads of cold sweat instantly appeared on his forehead.
Qingque was completely stunned by the accusation that suddenly escalated to the level of "illegitimate childbirth." Her ears were ringing, and she was a hundred times more terrified than when she first heard the speculation about "illegitimate daughter."
She shook her head violently, stammering incoherently as she desperately protested, "No! I didn't!"
Mom! Dad! Diviner Fu! I swear! I swear on the Imperial Jade Tablet!
If Qingyuan were my child, I would never be able to play the Qiongyu card.
I didn't miss a single one of those monitoring tests, and the results were all normal!
I've never even been in a relationship! How could I possibly do something like that?!
This formation... something's definitely wrong with this formation! That hair... yes!
Is there something wrong with that hair?! That's Qingyuan's hair; she's so strange, her hair must be different too!
She looked at Fu Xuan in a panic, as if grasping at a last straw.
"The evidence is right here! It was personally deduced by the Grand Diviner!"
Sparrow Mom pointed at the glaring connection on the star chart, her hand trembling violently, both angry and frightened. "The life lines are connected, the evidence is irrefutable! You still want to deny it?!"
Tell the truth! What exactly happened?! Tell me now, and maybe...
Perhaps the diviner can help us think of a solution…
Her voice grew softer and softer until it almost turned into a desperate sob, because she knew herself how futile her so-called "finding a solution" was.
Fu Xuan frowned deeply as she looked at the scene before her, which had completely spiraled out of control due to its violation of fundamental social rules.
Qingque's collapse-like, almost instinctive denial strongly challenged the seemingly logical inference that best fit the surface.
More importantly, the bright silver lifeline itself... its "texture" is too unique.
It was radiant and seamless, lacking any trace of gradual change or residual energy from the birth of a new life from the mother's womb, unlike any "private birth" record she had seen in countless files.
"quiet!"
Fu Xuan raised his voice, his clear, cold voice carrying an undeniable authority, which temporarily extinguished the mother sparrow's near-collapse sobs and the father sparrow's helpless panic, like ice water.
"The connection of the life lines is certain, but their shape and characteristics are beyond reason and do not match any of the records in the birth files I have read."
She calmly pointed out the doubts, "Besides, the Xianzhou fertility monitoring network is very comprehensive and thorough."
If there had truly been a violation, there would be absolutely no way that it could have completely evaded all monitoring to this day without leaving a trace.
Her words gave the parents a sliver of rational hope, but the shadow of fear did not dissipate.
The light in Fu Xuan's Dharma Eyes shone even brighter than before: "Whether it violates the law or not is not without evidence."
Qingque, open your mind and consciousness, and do not resist or conceal anything.
"I will use the power of the Exhaustive Observation Formation to review everything you've done in the past and cross-reference it with the records on the Immortal Ship."
This goes far beyond the scope of a family dispute and is almost an authoritative judicial review.
Qingque's face was ashen. She knew this concerned her innocence, and she began to understand her father.
How would I know who the father of the child is?
She bit her lower lip so hard it almost bled, nodded forcefully, closed her eyes tightly, and forced herself to relax.
The Qiong Guan Formation emitted a deep rumble once more, and its light suddenly intensified.
This time, even more complex and intricate runes were faintly revealed within the flowing light.
A vast and powerful stream of data swept over Qingque like a tidal wave, meticulously tracing her state, energy fluctuations, and vital signs from the moment of her birth until this very moment...
It also performs high-speed comparisons with official monitoring records in the alliance's core database.
Time passed slowly in a suffocating silence.
Finally, all the light and the phantom of the runic chains slowly faded away, and the Qiong Guan Array returned to the relative calm it had at the beginning of its operation.
At the very center of the formation, a single point of pure, soft green light, representing "no abnormalities," shone steadily and clearly.
Fu Xuan slowly exhaled a long breath, withdrew some of the power of his Dharma Eye, and looked at the still-shaken Qing Que family. His gaze was more complex and unpredictable than before.
"She is not your child," she announced calmly.
"call……"
Sparrow Mom's legs went weak, and she almost completely collapsed into Sparrow Dad's arms. After the immense fear came a feeling of exhaustion, as if she had survived a disaster. Cold sweat soaked through her clothes.
Sparrow's father also let out a long, heavy sigh of relief, raising his hand to wipe away the dense cold sweat on his forehead, as if he had just experienced a life-or-death battle.
"But... Fu Taibu," Qingque's voice still trembled, a mixture of lingering fear and deeper confusion, "If it's not... not that kind of situation, then what exactly does this lifeline mean? Why is it connected to me like that?"
Fu Xuan fell into an even longer silence.
Her gaze lingered between the pale-faced Qingque and the exceptionally bright silver lifeline on the star chart, which seemed to exist independently of all cause and effect in the world.
Formations can verify that "nothing happened," but they cannot directly explain "why it happened."
Having ruled out the most logical and legal possibilities, the remaining explanations, however outlandish they may seem, are likely the only answer.
She raised her hand again, her fingertips flashing with a faint light. The node on the star map representing Qingque's "present moment" existence was connected to the node representing Qingyuan's "existence" represented by her bright silver lifeline by a more striking arc of light.
"It is neither a private conception in accordance with legal principles," Fu Xuan's voice became low and slow, each word seemingly carrying a thousand pounds of weight, "nor is it any known method of bloodline inheritance that conforms to the laws of nature and the Immortal Ship..."
Therefore, this kind of fate line anchoring pattern that transcends conventional understanding points to a... more profound, and perhaps more paradoxical, situation.
The air on the observation platform seemed to freeze again. The sparrow parents instinctively held their breath, while the blue sparrow opened its eyes wide.
Fu Xuan stared directly at Qing Que, and clearly stated, word by word, the conclusion that even she herself felt her worldview tremble when she deduced it:
"She is you in the future."
My future self...?
Qingque was completely stunned, her mind went blank, and she couldn't process the information. Her parents were even more dumbfounded, their expressions a mixture of absurdity, shock, and even deeper bewilderment.
"However," Fu Xuan didn't give them time to process it; her tone suddenly turned sharp, as if she were dissecting a problem on a cosmic scale, "there exists a fundamental contradiction here, a contradiction that shakes the very logic of existence!"
Her fingertips traced the star chart, dotting the lifeline of the Sparrow Parents: "Even if they are future beings, in terms of the logic of existence, they cannot escape the origin of their birth."
Your future should rightfully continue the bloodline of your parents, and genetic testing has confirmed this... However—”
Her fingertips suddenly moved toward Qingyuan's bright silver life line, her tone carrying a rare, almost bewildered inquiry: "Qingyuan's life line is completely cut off from your parents' destinies, with no connection whatsoever!"
This is by no means "independence" or "estrangement" in the usual sense, but rather its "existence" itself, as if it were controlled by some incomprehensible force.
It is constructed directly within the independent concept of "you"!
Fu Xuan frowned slightly, the light in her Dharma Eyes flickering uncertainly. She murmured to herself, but the sound echoed clearly on the silent observation platform, challenging the boundaries of everyone's understanding:
"She is you, but not the 'you' born of your parents."
In such a peaceful and tranquil place as the Immortal Boat Alliance... just how long and distorted must time be eroded?
Only then can the existence of a "future self" be rooted in the parents who gave it life...
Completely severing cause and effect, ultimately leaving only "this very me in this moment"... this single and absolute anchor point?
On the observation platform, you could hear a pin drop.
No one could answer that question. The faint light remaining from the Qiong Guan Formation flickered eerily, illuminating Qing Que's utterly bewildered face, as well as the lingering fear and deeper, more helpless confusion on the faces of Que's parents.
A "self" from the future. A "self" that cannot even be fully explained logically.
