“So, in short, you’re saying that Yang Chen and I changed the future at the source, so none of what happened later will happen, right? Then Zhou Tian and Zheng Xiaoying shouldn’t be dead either. Could they have escaped as well? Maybe they just don’t know where to go now. They probably ran…”

Shen Wei looked at the exit of the film and television base with a complicated expression.

“If the Chosen One Management Bureau is really guarding outside as you said, then they definitely can’t escape. There are experts everywhere there. Those two will just get beaten to a pulp…”

Yang Chen walked to Shen Wei’s side to comfort him.

Countless people came to hug them and express their gratitude. Shen Wei and Yang Chen nodded perfunctorily.

As the crowd dispersed, Shen Wei found a slip of paper inside the CD case. It had a few words written on it.

“Shen Wei, Yang Chen, thank you for once being a part of my life.

Although cause and effect are predetermined in this world, you taught me to fight against fate. You gave me the flames of warmth and courage, and I repay you with the reversal of time.”

“Congratulations to Chosen One 9527, Shen Wei, and Chosen One 1000, Yang Chen, for clearing the reality-based Rule Anomaly ‘Death Live Broadcast.’”

“Shen Wei’s overall clearance rating is S, and Yang Chen’s overall clearance rating is A. The Rule Anomaly space has been解除 (jie chu - released), and the surroundings have returned to normal. Chosen Ones can leave at any time.”

Mission Reward 1: 50 years of lifespan.

Mission Reward 2: Improvement in basic physical attributes.

Current physical attributes of Chosen One Shen Wei:

Mission Reward 3: Script Teleportation

Active Skill: Change scenes by rewriting the script, teleporting the user to a safe location.

Can be used once within the Rule Anomaly world, and cannot be used to teleport to worlds outside the Rule Anomaly (each use consumes 10 years of lifespan).

Unlimited use in the real world: Each use consumes 1 year of lifespan.

Mission Reward 4: Time-Space Disc (Can be used three times, after which it will become an ordinary movie disc!)

Passive Skill: Time Reversal.

When the user suffers a fatal injury that is sure to result in death, the Time Reversal skill will activate. Everything around will return to the state it was three seconds prior. (Only effective against pseudo-god level and below creatures. Each activation of Time Reversal will consume 50 years of the host’s lifespan. Cannot be activated if lifespan is insufficient.)

“Righty, I was the one who harmed Zhang Ziliang. Otherwise, he might not have died…”

Shen Wei said, choking with emotion.

The Evil God Right Hand surprisingly didn’t mock Shen Wei this time. Instead, it comforted him:

“Kid, who would have thought that Zhang Ziliang would actually be a reincarnation of a god? Looks like his energy level wasn’t low, and he even had a time-space talent! He got lost in a parallel world, and you mistakenly saved him. That was his good fortune!”

“Although he died in the real world, he is living in another way. Don’t be sad. If you hadn’t helped him this time, he would likely have become an evil god, or even released evil monsters from another dimension, causing a great disaster. If things had really developed that way, Zhang Ziliang would have been destined to be绞杀 (jiao sha - strangled) by the masters of the Rule Anomalies…”

“Righty, hearing you say that makes me feel a lot better…”

The rewards for this reality-based Rule Anomaly were undeniably generous, but Shen Wei couldn’t be happy no matter what.

Yang Chen took the disc, standing blankly in place, as if still immersed in the sorrow of Zhang Ziliang’s departure.

“Alright, Yang Chen, a life without regrets isn’t perfect…”

Shen Wei patted Yang Chen’s head.

Yang Chen raised his tear-streaked face and looked up at Shen Wei. “Will Zhang Ziliang be happy over there?”

“Don’t worry! He’ll definitely have a better life than us. Maybe we’ll even have to suck up to him in the future!”

A strained smile appeared on Shen Wei’s face, and Yang Chen nodded as if he understood, wiping away his tears.

“Hey, Yang Chen, that’s right, what rewards did you get?”

Hearing Shen Wei’s words, Yang Chen checked his rewards and compared them to Shen Wei’s. He found that the rewards were similar, except for the last one. Shen Wei’s Time-Space Disc could be used three times, while Yang Chen’s could only be used once.

“This difference is too big! Even though you got an S-grade reward and I got an A-grade reward, how can there be such a big difference? I’m not convinced, I’m not convinced…”

Yang Chen kicked the stones on the ground, sulking.

“Little brat, you’re still far from being on par with your brother Shen…”

Shen Wei said smugly, looking at Yang Chen’s envious gaze.

Just as the two were chatting, a large number of armed combat personnel rushed into the film and television city. They quickly evacuated all the civilians and surrounded Shen Wei and Yang Chen with their guns.

“Don’t shoot! We’re on the same side! I’m a very good civilian…”

Shen Wei shouted, raising his hands.

Compared to Shen Wei’s unreliability, Yang Chen seemed mature for his age.

Yang Chen took out his credentials from his pocket and walked to the leader of the assault team, identified himself. The assault team leader immediately stood at attention and saluted the 12-year-old Yang Chen, indicating that his rank was not low.

At this moment, Ji Ziyue and Chen Feng from the Chosen One Management Bureau also arrived. They pushed through the crowd, hugging Yang Chen and Shen Wei, crying and laughing, appearing extremely excited.

“Hey, beauty, you got your snot on my clothes. That’s very impolite, you know?”

“Chen Feng, why are you hugging me so tightly, you big man? Could it be that you’re lusting after my beauty and trying to plot something against me?…”

Shen Wei’s mouth never stopped. Ji Ziyue pinched him a few times before he calmed down.

“Are you trying to deny the debt? You not only tricked me into working for you for free, but you also took advantage of me and tried to plot against me…”

Shen Wei pushed Ji Ziyue and Chen Feng away. The Evil God Right Hand even cooperated, rubbing his thumb and index finger together in front of them, making his meaning very clear.

Ji Ziyue glared at him and said angrily, “Are we the kind of people who don’t keep our promises? The things have already been brought. Chen Feng has them…”

“Oh, you’re just anxious. I’ve already prepared everything for you…”

Chen Feng smiled helplessly and took out the rewards he had prepared long ago.

A black card with the number 50 written on it, representing 50 years of lifespan, and 5 bright red chili peppers.

Shen Wei directly put away the lifespan card. The 5 bright red chili peppers made him ecstatic. They were actually the most precious recovery items.

Life Chili x5

Immediately restores all injuries to the flesh after consumption and can also have a slight healing effect on mental damage. (Life Chili, let you feel the fiery passion of life)

“Thank you, you two! Oh, right, Chen Feng, I met your brother Chen Ping in the previous Rule Anomaly, the Curiosity Museum. He asked me to give you a message, saying that he is still alive and will definitely come to find you. Sorry, I’ve been too busy with things recently, I forgot and only just told you…”

The smile on Chen Feng’s face instantly disappeared after hearing this. “What? That traitor is still not dead…”
