Chapter 696: Chapter 43 Seven Sins, Back in Formation!_3 Chapter 696: Chapter 43 Seven Sins, Back in Formation!_3 Because Lin Xian’s car did not start for a long time, the vehicle behind honked its horn insistently.
Hurriedly turning his head, Lin Xian stepped on the gas, and the Volkswagen sedan continued to move forward.
Hearing Yu Xi speak like that…
It was not hard to see.
Yu Xi truly did not know what the Millennium Stakes were or the concept behind them.
She completely misunderstood, her assumptions were way off, she didn’t guess even the slightest bit correctly.
Could it be…
That he had guessed right just by a fluke?
Yu Xi could pull the strings of the Space-time Law with ease, yet she was utterly clueless about the concept of Millennium Stakes.

This perhaps really indicated, “The secrecy level of Millennium Stakes and their actual function might even be far more important than the Space-time Law!”
Huang Que also told him that Millennium Stakes were a very important matter, highly related to History Lock, and hoped that he could figure it out soon.
In comparison, to discover and summarize the laws of space-time was actually not difficult.
Because all that relies on conjecture and reasoning.

Even without any evidence or experimental proof, it won’t stop someone from deducing it all with just a pen and paper.
But on the other hand, the Millennium Stakes.
They appear only once every 24 years; the time span is too long, and they’re too well-hidden.
The Earth is so large, with so many countries, and everyday so many people are born…
To encounter the Millennium Stakes in this sea of people is harder than reaching the heavens.
And to witness Millennium Stakes turning into Blue Stardust and vanishing at 00:42, completing the staking process…
that’s even rarer.
Unless one is a Chosen One with maxed-out luck, who else would have such fortune to stumble upon that one particular moment in 24 years?
You wouldn’t believe it, but it’s true!
Lin Xian focused on driving, but the more he thought, the more he felt sure that very few people knew of the existence of Millennium Stakes!
Just like himself.
If he hadn’t chanced upon witnessing the moment of Chu Anqing’s disappearance, he probably would never have come into contact with the concept of Millennium Stakes in his entire life.
And the birth of the next Millennium Stakes baby should be in 2028.
Every year, over 130 million newborns come into the world, with hundreds born every minute…
who can accurately distinguish which one is a Millennium Stake?
Then, projecting forward.
The next time for the Millennium Stakes to dissipate should be on a day in 2048 at 00:42.
This is an even rarer paranormal phenomenon.
Why didn’t Zhang Yuqian’s parents tell the truth about what happened to their daughter?
Because no one would believe it if they said it out loud.
All his life, Lin Xian had heard countless people tell numerous supernatural stories and urban legends.
From female ghosts in school buildings to upstairs neighbors with marbles bouncing at night, to UFOs, prehistoric aquatic creatures, and old ladies being suddenly possessed by spirits during village rituals…
He didn’t believe any of them.
The matter of Millennium Stakes, too, he believed only because he had experienced it firsthand.
If he told a second person about it, probably no one would believe it; at best, they’d toss off a line like:
“Ah, by 2048 we’ll all be old men, just take me to see the young Millennium Stakes girl turn into Blue Stardust.”
No one would care about it, and might not even remember it.
Therefore—
“Since Yu Xi doesn’t know of the existence of Millennium Stakes, then Jask probably doesn’t know either, and even the members of the Genius Club might not be aware!”
In the next few hundred years, with advances in technology, anything’s possible.
But now in 2024, and even more so in the years 2000, 1976, 1952…
there’s no technological support that could find someone globally based solely on appearance and year of birth.
Who can guarantee that every Millennium Stake will live in peaceful and affluent countries?
If born in a poor and backward nation, they might die of hunger before growing up;
If born in a war-torn country, they might be killed by a bomb before reaching 20 years old.
What would happen if a Millennium Stake dies before they turn 20?
Lin Xian does not yet know.
But he was increasingly feeling that the existence of Millennium Stakes…
seems to be a secret known only to a very select few!
That’s why.
The lives of Zhang Yuqian and Chu Anqing, 20 years of absolute ordinariness, were undisturbed, unmonitored, and unexploited by anyone.
Except Huang Que.
If Huang Que didn’t know Chu Anqing was a Millennium Stake, then this Millennium Stake’s dissipation might have occurred quietly in some unknown corner, concluding with the bizarre disappearance of Chu Anqing.
Delving deeper into reasoning.
Why did Huang Que know that Chu Anqing was a Millennium Stake?
The only possibility is because she was very familiar with Chu Anqing.
In the space-time where Huang Que exists, as in the current space-time, Zhao Yingjun, himself, and Chu Anqing are all well-acquainted.
Thus, if anything paranormal happened to Chu Anqing, he and Zhao Yingjun would most likely know about it.
But as for Jask and the members of the Genius Club, most of them wouldn’t have had this chance.
As for Zhang Yuqian, she was just an extremely ordinary little girl, even less likely to draw attention.
So.
Lin Xian narrowed his eyes.
Could it be…
“Millennium Stakes, is that my truly unique trump card?”
This thought might seem presumptuous.
But it’s not entirely impossible.
Otherwise, why would the lives of Zhang Yuqian and Chu Anqing remain so tranquil for 20 years?
