Regarding whether to intervene, Adanis and Olao did not reach a consensus.
In the end, Olao, as always, used a tolerant tone and said, "You should think more about it; relying solely on Naraku is not a solution."
After speaking, Olao vanished into the darkness.
Adanis remained standing in place, expressionless, looking at where the playful You Nu had previously appeared, seemingly waiting for You Nu’s main body to arrive, but in reality, her heart was full of suspicion.
She and Olao had always had differences on the issue of stopping the descendants of Noah. Adanis did not want their arrival to change her current life; whereas Olao welcomed it.
Even with their differences, these were basically internal, a tacit understanding: I know your position, you know mine, and mentioning it sparingly is a form of respect.
This tacit understanding lasted a long time. The last time Noah’s descendants arrived, Olao acted the same way. Although Adanis made some blocking gestures, Olao never intervened, only occasionally signaling her with his eyes: don’t go too far.
But this time, it was a bit strange.
Olao actually took the initiative to stop her?
Moreover, when Adanis played dumb, Olao didn’t brush it off as usual but instead indirectly pointed out her actions in a gentle tone.
Even though Olao’s tone wasn’t harsh, nor did he forcibly insist Adanis follow his opinion, it remained as mild and accommodating as ever. However, Adanis knew Olao too well, just as Olao knew her.
This time, Olao appeared to be negotiating, but in reality, he had his own plans.
He might even intervene.
Not long ago, Olao told Adanis that whatever she did, he would support it. But now, Olao clearly seemed off. This sudden change caught Adanis off guard, filling her with doubt.
Why did Olao suddenly change his mind in less than half a day?
Adanis had always monitored the situation of the residual place, and she knew clearly that Olao hadn’t left or entered the Mirror World.
For such a significant change in thought within half a day, there had to be more to it.
What on earth happened?
Adanis crossed her arms, her alabaster fingers rhythmically tapping on her arm, her eyes half-closed, the eyes like a mirror behind her eyelids constantly transforming various scenes.
These scenes were all related to the residual place.
Inside the residual place, there were numerous mirrors, and each mirror could become Adanis’ eyes, reflecting images that she could recall in a short time.
The images continuously appeared and then shattered like ice, breaking into countless patterns.
The ever-changing images presented the situation of the residual place today. After watching these images, Adanis looked even more puzzled.
Olao was just like always, with no change. Besides wandering around in the residual place, he came to spy on her, not showing any unusual expressions, maintaining his usual demeanor.
This was clearly not right, Olao’s unusual behavior had to have a reason.
While Adanis was pondering, a faint light suddenly shone through the darkness ahead.
The light grew brighter, and after a while, a familiar round mirror appeared right in front of Adanis.
Inside the mirror was also a familiar dark vortex, only compared to the previously abyss-like black vortex, this one was slightly hazy, and in the center of the vortex, a vague figure could be seen.
Without a doubt, You Nu’s main body had arrived.
From the detailed contours of that figure, it seemed to be the tender hearted You Nu.
Once the tender hearted You Nu appeared, unlike the playful You Nu that was loud, it stood quietly in the void and restrained the faint light of the mirror, so it wouldn’t be too dazzling.
—Because the tender hearted You Nu noticed Adanis was deep in thought, it tried to minimize any actions and behaviors that might disturb her.
This kind of keen insight was something the playful You Nu couldn’t match.
Of course, Adanis also noticed the tender hearted You Nu, and as she was about to greet it, she suddenly froze.
Gazing at the suspended mirror ahead, images flashed rapidly through Adanis’ mind.
She had overlooked something before; all unusual behavior actually started after Olao appeared. In the past, he might occasionally hear her conversing with You Nu and others, secretly watching and eavesdropping, but he never came out of hiding.
This time, however, Olao proactively came out from the shadows. The strangeness began at this point.
According to this timeline for retroactive reasoning, some previously fog-shrouded information seemed to become clear.
Olao rarely actively contacted the outside world, and with his talent, even the Wise Sovereign’s memory of him had gradually blurred.
Since Olao didn’t contact the outside world, his mindset naturally maintained a stable long-term existence, rarely changing on a whim. What prompted his change must have been something he hadn’t previously encountered.
Reviewing the recollections from the mirrors, Olao seemed no different from before today and didn’t encounter anything unusual.
The only possibly new element he contacted was the external scenes replayed through the mirrors by the playful You Nu.
In the replayed scenes, only two characters appeared. One was a Space Apprentice, and the other used Shapeshifting Technique, hiding their identity like an Official Wizard.
Could it be that Olao discovered something from these two individuals, prompting him to change his mind and actively dissuade her?
Yet these two clearly weren’t Noah’s descendants; they didn’t carry any of Noah’s blood aura.
Adanis hadn’t paid much attention to those two before, but now, since Olao seemed to have discovered something about them, she needed to pay attention as well...especially the elusive wizard.
In the mirror replays, the Space Apprentice was almost transparent with no peculiar traits. However, the wizard using Shapeshifting Technique was hard to pin down in terms of affiliation; even with the mirror replaying all the energy, pheromones, and fluctuations on him, Adanis couldn’t determine if he was a Space Mage or an Illusionist Wizard.
The ability of Mirror Space is typically something only Ice Wizards from the Water System of the natural side and Space Mages from the Mysterious Side could master.
The wizard didn’t possess the typical field of an Ice Wizard, so he most likely belonged to the Space Series. However, his Illusion Series capabilities were also strange, constantly enveloping him.
Can an Illusionist Wizard grasp the ability of Mirror Space? Hard to say.
