Chapter 49 Rebound!
A thought popped into Li Yao's mind.
The quantum entanglement summoned by his quantum engine might be able to counteract the law of cause and effect on Lingxi.
After all, quantum entanglement is ultimately related to causality.
He acted immediately and soon came up with an idea.
Let's guide some quantum entanglement onto Lingxi and see what happens.
He stretched out his hand, conjuring a golden ball of light in his palm, and smiled at Lingxi, "Sister Lingxi, I'll show you a magic trick."
Lingxi looked up, her face full of confusion: "Magic?"
"Come on, reach out and touch this ball of light."
Lingxi curiously reached out her hand, and with a gentle touch of her fingertips, the ball of light shattered into tiny specks with a "pop" and disappeared.
"Childish." She chuckled helplessly, withdrew her hand, and said, "Go eat your food."
Upon hearing this, Li Yao obediently lowered his head and ate his rice, but his eyes kept glancing at Lingxi out of the corner of his eye.
Since he acquired the Bagua compass, he has been able to influence the probabilities of good and bad caused by quantum entanglement to a certain extent.
Simply put, it means making the other person a little more unlucky or a little luckier.
That golden ball of light was something he had deliberately added; as soon as Lingxi came into contact with it, it would automatically be absorbed and then become unlucky.
As time went by, Li Yao became increasingly puzzled.
Logically speaking, Lingxi should have encountered various misfortunes, such as spilling a bowl, bumping into a table corner, or even tripping and falling for no reason.
Moreover, his actions were essentially malicious towards Lingxi and constituted a deliberate act of ill intent, which would theoretically trigger the causal laws governing Lingxi.
But the result?
Lingxi continued drinking her soup as usual, her chopsticks holding food without trembling, and she sat in her chair steadily.
There was no wind outside the window, the flowers didn't fall, and the roof didn't collapse.
Similarly, nothing bad happened to him.
Li Yao waited for a long time, his neck aching from stretching, but there was still no movement.
His mind was in turmoil.
Was there something wrong with the process just now?
Did you forget to adjust the probability?
Or is it because Lingxi's causal laws are too strong, directly neutralizing the negative effects of quantum entanglement?
So he secretly activated the compass, quietly sensing the trace of that golden ball of light.
But the feedback from the compass left him speechless.
The ball of light did indeed attach itself to Lingxi, but it was dissipating at a visible speed, like snowflakes falling into boiling water, vanishing without a trace in an instant.
"this……"
Li Yao's eyes widened, and he quickly came to a guess.
It's not that his quantum entanglement is too weak, but rather that Lingxi himself is a walking "probability stabilizer".
Any possibility of trying to harm her will be automatically reset to zero.
Thinking of this, the way he looked at Lingxi changed.
"What are you looking at?" Lingxi felt uneasy under his gaze and tapped the rim of her bowl with her chopsticks. "Your face is practically touching the bowl."
"N-I didn't see anything."
Li Yao quickly lowered his head and ate his rice, his heart pounding.
He silently made a mental note of it.
From now on, when I go out, I will definitely stay closer to Lingxi.
With her by his side, he can avoid any misfortune.
We absolutely have to latch onto this powerful figure.
But not long after, Li Yao gave up the idea.
After the meal, he volunteered to wash the dishes.
He carried the bowl and chopsticks to the kitchen, and as soon as he lifted his foot, there was a "smack".
He suddenly slipped and fell backward to the ground, shattering dishes all over the floor.
"Holy crap!"
Li Yao sat up, looking completely bewildered.
How did he become an ordinary person for just a moment?!
Otherwise, how could someone with super genes make such a basic mistake?
Lingxi ran over when she heard the noise. Seeing his miserable state, she felt both sorry for him and amused: "Don't you watch where you're going? How old are you and you still fall down?"
"No, how could I have fallen? I just..."
Li Yao got up, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Could it be...?
Just as he thought of a possibility, the chandelier above his head suddenly went out with a "snap," plunging the entire kitchen into darkness.
"Did the power trip?" Lingxi frowned.
Li Yao reached out to touch the switch, and as soon as his finger touched it, he heard a "zzzz" sound of electricity, which made his entire arm go numb and his hair stand on end.
"Hahahaha!" Lingxi laughed so hard she couldn't stand up straight. "Your...your hair..."
Li Yao stroked his spiky head and said helplessly, "Sister Lingxi, you should probably switch to a more advanced style of decoration next time."
No sooner had he finished speaking than the water pressure at the faucet next to him suddenly spiked, shooting a jet of water straight up to the ceiling and drenching him completely.
“…………”
Li Yao was truly speechless, utterly speechless with admiration.
At this moment, Lingxi also realized something was wrong. She murmured, "Could it be that the Heavenly King is researching some new thing again?"
Li Yao sat on the ground, looking puzzled, and asked, "Huh? What does this have to do with my teacher?"
Lingxi leaned closer and said mysteriously, "I heard that those strange events that happened in Tiancheng a few days ago were because King Tianji was conducting new research."
Upon hearing this, Li Yao immediately understood.
It turns out the teacher took the blame for him.
He waved his hand and said, "This time it must be a coincidence."
What a coincidence!
Only he himself knew that this was clearly a case of trying to outsmart someone and making things worse.
He finally understood.
It's not that Lingxi isn't unlucky, it's that she's bounced all her bad luck back!
And it's doubled!
He also figured out the pattern of the Lingxi Law.
Regardless of whether they are friend or foe, anyone who harms Lingxi, even unintentionally, will be targeted by some unseen force.
The more severe punishment is death and the annihilation of one's spiritual essence; the milder punishment is like what he is experiencing now, receiving only a minor, painless penalty.
Moreover, this law only protects Lingxi; no one else, no matter how close they are to her or how good their relationship is, receives the same treatment.
Therefore, Li Yao quickly abandoned the idea of currying favor with someone powerful.
In the future, when he uses the quantum engine, he should stay away from Sister Lingxi... no, the farther the better!
After all that had happened, Li Yao could no longer stay.
After saying goodbye to Lingxi, he spread his wings and flew back.
But just as he was halfway there, his wings suddenly malfunctioned and he disappeared.
Holy crap!
He plummeted downwards, crashing into a flowerbed and breaking several unknown, precious plants.
Li Yao crawled out of the pile of petals, covered in dust and grime, rubbing his aching back, on the verge of tears.
"I was too hasty... I never expected that this would actually have a rebound effect."
He squatted by the flower bushes, waiting for his wings to slowly recover.
A night breeze blew by, carrying the fragrance of flowers, as if mocking him.
Today, Li Yao truly understands the feelings of those unfortunate souls from a few days ago.
He looked up to the sky and sighed, secretly vowing: In the future, he would definitely act obediently and cleverly in front of Sister Lingxi, and would never have any crooked thoughts.
I'll play with the quantum engine and stuff when I get home.
After a while, the wings finally returned to normal. He carefully tested them and only took off again after confirming that there were no problems.
This time he flew very slowly, afraid of another free fall.
After finally flying back to his residence, he pushed open the door and suddenly sensed that something was wrong.
There are people inside!
Immediately afterwards, a message popped up in the dark communication system.
"I'm in my room."
"I'll be waiting for you~"
