This time, Su Li didn't keep them in suspense.
With a thought.
Emperor Ke appeared.
"This is one of my abilities. I have the power to control time.”
Su Li said simply.
"As long as I want to, I can send you back to the past.”
" Go back to the past?!"
Although Su Li's words were simple, it was like a bolt from the blue to Sunset Red and Eight Clouds the Pommel Horse.
This kind of thing was simply too inconceivable!
"Can you really do it? Controlling time, this…"
Xi Rihong muttered to herself.
Although Xi Rihong had read Su Li's comics before, there were so many comics. She definitely could not finish them all in such a short time, so she did not know the ability of the King of Carving.
"Since you have this doubt, why don't you try it yourself?”
Su Li said as he loaded a Four Bullet into the box.
"As long as this bullet hits you, it will reverse your time. In order to make the comparison more obvious, I suggest creating some wounds.”
“……”
Sunset Red swallowed. Even if Su Li said so, she was still going to be shot, so she couldn't make up her mind.
However, on second thought.
He had seen how magical Su Li's manga was.
There was no need for the other party to tease him in such a place.
Therefore, after thinking for a few seconds.
"I understand."
Xi Rihong, who had made up her mind, nodded.
Then, he took out Kunai and cut his finger.
A trace of blood flowed out.
"Relax, don't be so nervous."
Su Li teased her to reassure her, then pulled the trigger on her arm.
Bang!
The Four Shots shot into Sunset Red's arm.
There was no expected pain.
The wound from before also disappeared in an instant.
Xi Rihong looked at her fingers in surprise.
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't find anything strange.
As the agent had said, he had the power to control time!
If it was this power.
Bayun's parents also had the possibility of changing their fate!
"Sir, please send me back to the past!”
Bayun the pommel horse was the first to understand the situation. She could not care less about crying and quickly knelt in front of Su Li to kowtow and beg.
"Sir Agent, please help her!" Sunset Red also pleaded sincerely.”
"I'm sorry…"
However, Su Li shook his head mercilessly.
"Time is not something that can be easily controlled. If you want to control time, you have to pay a corresponding price. To put it simply, if I were to send you back to many years ago, I would lose more than ten years or even decades of my lifespan…So, no.”
Su Li's reply immediately made the pommel horse Eight Clouds lose his breath.
His face was filled with despair.
As expected.
How could such a magical thing happen to me so easily?
However, since that was the case.
Then why did you give me hope?
"Of course, I'm not saying this to tease you.”
Su Li knew what she was thinking when he saw the expression on her face, so he continued.
"The lifespan that is consumed can be replenished…Even so, this price is still not small. And for no reason, I can't do this for you just because I pity you.”
Actually, even if Su Li was willing, he couldn't.
Su Li had yet to master the Eleven Bullets and Twelve Bullets, so he could not send his target to the past or the future.
But even if he could.
Su Li wouldn't do that either.
Because there was no reason to do so.
Su Li sympathized with the pommel horse Eight Clouds.
But Su Li was not a selfless saint.
Either Su Li had a good relationship with the pommel horse, Bayun, to the point that Su Li was willing to help her save her parents without caring about the price.
Either saving her parents would bring Su Li more benefits than the price.
And these two points did not fit the Pommel Horse Eight Clouds.
At least not at the moment.
“……”
Bayun the pommel horse was silent and could not speak.
Although she really wanted to ask Su Li for help, she knew that she did not have the right to ask Su Li for unconditional help.
She had only known him for less than an hour.
He had even used an illusion to attack him before.
How could she have the face to beg him to pay such a huge price for her?
"That being said, I can give you a chance. Actually, I'm a manga artist, and I'm currently lacking an assistant. I see that your skills are not bad.”
Su Li told him his real purpose after he was done.
"We agreed beforehand that I won't provide food, accommodation, or pay. However, I will remember the achievements you have made for me. When your achievements accumulate enough to offset the price, I will send you back to the past to rewrite your parents 'fate. How about it?”
"I'm willing!"
Hearing Su Li's words, Bayun nodded without hesitation. His eyes were no longer dull, but filled with hope.
Su Li felt a little embarrassed seeing her so decisive.
The main thing was that the pommel horse, Bayun, was only twelve or thirteen years old. Did he feel that doing this was a little like recruiting child labor?
Moreover, they didn't provide food, accommodation, or pay.
What a black-hearted boss!
He felt a little guilty.
However, Bayun the Pommel Horse, who was involved, felt that there was no problem.
Moreover, the people in the Naruto World matured early, and their average lifespan was short.
Maturity was not determined by age, but by strength.
As long as one could become a Chuunin, even if they were only seven or eight years old, they would be able to rely on themselves and gain the recognition of others.
Therefore, it was not a big problem.
If he had to say it.
Su Li hadn't collected the fees for helping to get rid of the inner demons and for regularly injecting Yang power.
Besides, it wasn't like they didn't pay him.
He promised her that he would convert her salary into performance and help her return to the past after accumulating it to a certain extent.
Compared to money, Bayun definitely wanted this promise more.
Thinking about it this way…
His conscience felt much better.
"Alright, from today onwards, you're my assistant. Pack your luggage. You'll be living with me for many years to come. This way, it'll be convenient for me to treat your body.”
"Yes, sir! Uh, uh…"
Bayun the pommel horse quickly agreed. Then, he looked a little troubled, as if he didn't know how to address Su Li.
"Since you're my assistant, you can call me Teacher Su Li from now on.”
"Yes, sir! Teacher Su Li!"
"Yes."
Su Li nodded in satisfaction.
This was the first time he had heard someone call him "teacher", and it didn't feel bad.
Just because of this title.
He had to train her well to become an assistant who could take charge of one side!
