Told You I Can Turn Back Time

Chapter 375: Chapter 305: Sensation and Possession Return

Since the conflict between Lin Xing and White Eagle Country had erupted, the incident had attracted global attention.

Because the public was more familiar with White Eagle Country and shared empathy as fellow modern-day people, Lin Xing’s acts of attacking the Presidential Palace and holding the president hostage shattered centuries of common understanding, leading many to view him as utterly villainous.

Thus, the attention on this entire event was even higher than that of the battle between Lin Xing and Xingxiao.

Consequently, after White Eagle Country’s press conference, it also garnered widespread attention online. Afterward, statistics showed that over five billion people watched the live broadcast of the conference.

And at this moment, when the people of the world personally heard Lin Xing’s response, acknowledging bluntly that he possessed the ability to rewind time, most were left dumbstruck.

Including many staff members on site at the moment, even the journalist asking the question hadn’t expected Lin Xing to give such a direct affirmative response.

Meanwhile, several kilometers away from the press conference, in a hotel.

Watching Lin Xing’s response on the screen, Jing Shiyu’s lips slowly curled into a smile.

Her mind seemed to overflow with memories from her time at the Heavenly Will Sect, seeing again those numerous devotees praying devoutly before the Divine Statue.

And the face of that Divine Statue seemed to gradually overlap with Lin Xing’s on the screen.

Bai Yiyi, looking at Jing Shiyu’s smile, couldn’t help but ask, "Is it really okay to say this openly?"

Jing Shiyu replied, "If Lin Xing were still just a hero, that would indeed be problematic."

"But if he becomes a god, then it won’t be a problem."

"God?" Bai Yiyi looked at Lin Xing on the screen, thinking to herself, "Wouldn’t I then become the master of a god?"

Jing Shiyu continued, "Heroes are good, but deities are better."

She scrolled through the online opinions and said with a smile, "Heroes can be misunderstood, utilized, and even their sacrifices can be seen as natural."

"Yet a god can make people abandon their reason to worship, fear, and submit, giving up everything they own voluntarily, even their lives and their families."

Jing Shiyu, with a face full of excitement and anticipation, continued to watch the screen, "I always felt that Lin Xing’s relationship with his fans was just like the one with the devotees I recruited in the Heavenly Will Sect: a relationship between the worshipped and the worshipers."

"But as I managed things in the mortal world, I gradually realized the difference."

"These fans... they demand too much and are far too inconstant."

"Better to be a devout believer, who asks for nothing and gives everything, never doubting or rebelling, living solely for Lin Xing’s satisfaction. That’s the best destiny for them."

Bai Yiyi contemplated and said, "But not everyone will become a devotee of Lin Xing, right?"

Jing Shiyu nodded and replied, "Of course not, even a god can’t save everyone."

"Any arrogant fool who refuses to believe should not receive Lin Xing’s protection."

Bai Yiyi asked, "But is the ability to rewind time enough to turn fans into devotees?"

Jing Shiyu snorted softly and said indifferently, "To become a god, there is only one requirement, just that single one."

"And that is to be powerful enough."

"Just like Lin Xing is now — powerful."

...

At the press conference.

The journalist who asked the question was momentarily stunned, but he quickly recovered, his face flushed with the rapid breathing.

He knew, he understood, that an epic news story was unfolding before him, one that would capture the attention of countless people now and in the future.

He was so nervous that his words were somewhat slurred, slightly stammering as he said, "Excuse me... please... how far back in time can you rewind?"

Lin Xing replied, "My ability is still growing, and how far it can ultimately reach will need continuous observation."

"But one thing is certain, with each death of mine, time is rewound, returning me to the past."

"So I am fated to be immortal and indestructible."

"There is nothing in this world that can kill me anymore."

Hearing Lin Xing’s words, the scene stirred again.

Then it was the turn for the next journalist to stand up. He looked at Lin Xing and asked, "Can you actively use your time-rewinding ability?"

Another journalist hurriedly stood up, "Are you sure it’s time rewinding? Can you prove it?"

A reporter from the back row shouted, "Have you used this time-rewinding multiple times already?"

As more and more journalists began standing up out of turn to ask Lin Xing about his time-rewinding ability, the Vice President spoke into the microphone, "Everyone, please remain quiet, follow the order and plan, and ask your questions one at a time."

"And regarding Mr. Lin’s abilities..."

The Vice President paused, capturing everyone’s attention before he continued, "In the shared world, as the celestial changes are about to escalate further, Mr. Lin’s ability will become the ultimate safety net for the present world."

"Therefore, all detailed information on Mr. Lin’s abilities is now top global classified information. Please refrain from asking about it at this press conference."

The journalist whose turn it was then asked, "What kind of situation would necessitate the use of time-rewinding? Could it be used to prevent the major serial car accident in Xinze City the day before yesterday?"
