Chapter 231: Xia Die: “who Might You Two Excellencies Be?”
Huo Zhanji and Dai Ying had already completed their rendezvous ten days ago, and all their actions were taken in by Audrey and Adam.
No matter what they ate today, how much water they drank, what clothes they wore, or their Magic Net browsing records, all were meticulously recorded by Adam and Audrey.
Especially Adam; Audrey had worked with him for several months, but this was the first time she saw him so human-like, at least showing some emotional fluctuations.
Huo Zhanji and Dai Ying’s initial plan was to investigate the truth of time travel themselves, but a Soul Elder and a Soul Douluo weren’t even noteworthy on the Continent; they were just two small fries. Wanting to investigate something advanced like time travel was overly fanciful.
After hitting a wall on the Continent for a while, Dai Ying gradually explained their family’s true situation to Huo Zhanji.
About his father and his mother’s identities.
Later, Dai Ying thought of seeking help from the God Realm; their maternal grandfather Sea God Tang San might lend a hand.
Huo Zhanji wasn’t familiar with his grandfather; he had only met him once when he was very young. Before that, he didn’t even know Sea God Tang San was his grandfather.
Father and Mother had never taken him to Grandfather’s house.
Dai Ying was similar; when she was little, Grandfather seemed to have passed away, and later he somehow won a revival match.
When Grandfather returned, she was already the God of Arrogance, working under Destruction God King Tang Wulin.
In her impression, Father and Mother seemed somewhat fearful of Grandfather.
Just as Dai Ying was preparing to set up a ritual channel to contact Sea God Tang San, and Adam and Audrey were preparing to intervene, a space-time fluctuation surged into Dai Ying’s mind.
The space-time fluctuation was extremely fragmented, with only a few strands of information remaining.
Adam quietly watched this information in Dai Ying’s dream; it was sent by another “Huo Yuhao,” who had almost exhausted his divine power and divine sense.
Even for a God King with a Super Divine Artifact, sending information across timelines and world lines was not easy.
As for physical travel? In the current state where space-time turbulence has slowly stabilized, it would be like the old man courting death by eating arsenic—he’s tired of living.
Apart from getting lost in billions of spaces and times, there is no other possibility.
In a little more time, once the space-time turbulence completely disappears, even information can’t be sent, and the two worlds will once again become completely parallel.
“Little Ying…………..we can’t find………”
“Be careful………”
“In any case, don’t…seek help from your…grandfather, at least not in that era!”
Upon receiving this information, Dai Ying immediately stopped the ritual channel and, under Huo Zhanji’s bewildered gaze, used Butterfly God Slash to erase all traces.
Although she didn’t know why Father would say that, compared to her grandfather whom she had rarely met, she trusted her own father more.
The two sat in Star Luo City, utterly bewildered for a moment, until Dai Ying decided to go to Xilu City to find Huo Yuhao.
At this moment, Dai Ying and Huo Zhanji were walking side by side on the streets of Xilu City, looking at the surrounding shops.
Xilu City’s gate security was much stricter than other cities, but when the guards saw Huo Zhanji and Dai Ying’s appearances, their hands trembled. After following procedure to issue them temporary identity proofs, they quickly let them into the city.
Who in the entire Xilu City didn’t know Huo Yuhao’s appearance?
But everyone knew that the great leader, the uncrowned king of Heaven Dou Plain, had a daughter at home.
Enthusiasm Members all knew this, after all, Huo Yuhao himself hadn’t refuted it and had tacitly acknowledged it.
The Enthusiasm Member in charge of guarding had already rapidly flashed through scenarios in his mind like illegitimate sons, illegitimate daughters, and classic Magic Net novel plots of seizing property.
“Sis, this place is way too advanced, isn’t it?”
“The technology here should be comparable to ten thousand years later.”
Huo Zhanji marveled at Xilu City’s high-rise buildings, prosperous streets, and soul tools.
Many streets were being widened, with better-performing road materials being laid; Dai Ying could tell with a slight step that this ground was absolutely prepared for soul tool vehicles.
“Yeah.”
“Developed beyond belief.”
“Plus the network, Xilu City might be close to Uncle Wulin’s era in terms of technology.”
“How is that possible.”
Dai Ying frowned tightly, puzzled as she looked at the city.
Huo Zhanji didn’t think too much; he looked at the maid coffee shop in the distance with a face full of wonder and said:
“Too amazing.”
“Does this era already have maid coffee shops?”
“I hardly see any in Star Luo City.”
Dai Ying turned to look at the maids coming and going, a surprised expression on her face.
In her perception, the weakest of those maids was a Great Soul Master.
Great Soul Masters working as maids? Even in the future, this wouldn’t happen.
Dai Ying curbed her curiosity and walked forward quickly; the current priority was to find Father from this era.
According to the Magic Net description, Father in this era was actually a Super Douluo; with his help, they could surely find the truth of time travel more easily.
Huo Zhanji was still curiously observing the maid coffee shop; in the future, his parents strictly forbade him from going to such places.
Looking back, he saw his sister already at the end of the road, so he anxiously jogged over to her side.
“Sis, why walk so fast?”
“Wait for me!”
Huo Zhanji stood beside Dai Ying, slightly panting, and saw his sister suddenly stop again.
“We’re here.”
“We’re here?”
Huo Zhanji followed his sister’s gaze and saw a three-story villa, yellow-purple in color, standing out conspicuously among the many buildings.
“Wow, such exaggerated colors.”
“Father in this timeline must be very strong!”
Dai Ying led Huo Zhanji close to the villa, arriving at the gate.
Beside the gate was a soul tool communication device; Dai Ying’s fingers trembled slightly as she pressed the doorbell.
Huo Yuhao’s house’s unique doorbell sound began to play.
“Hakimi nanbei mung bean~~”
“Haya ku milk dragon~”
“Heh.”
A light chuckle sounded behind the two, but they seemed unable to hear it at all.
“Senior Adam, did you just laugh?”
Behind Huo Zhanji and Dai Ying, Adam and Audrey stood openly in the light.
A Soul Elder and a Soul Douluo couldn’t see through their psychological invisibility.
“I remembered something happy.”
Adam maintained his gentle smile, quietly watching the two’s backs; his clear golden eyes showed no trace of evil intent.
After Huo Yuhao learned that Huo Zhanji and Dai Ying were related to the Crown of Time, he only had them temporarily supervised to prevent them from causing trouble.
Otherwise, Adam would have already used the Pen of Imagination to script their story, leading them to fate’s endpoint through coincidences.
In Adam’s view, these two time travelers were unstable factors in the plane and should be eliminated.
Audrey glanced at Adam but said nothing, her hands clasped at her abdomen, posture elegant as she quietly watched the two’s actions.
As Lord’s blade, she would execute Lord’s will wholeheartedly.
“Sis… Sister, this song is so weird.”
“Did Father originally like this avant-garde art?”
Huo Zhanji listened to that bizarre Hakimi song and found it hard to keep a straight face.
Dai Ying’s tense pretty face instantly collapsed.
For some reason, the network in this world’s music was extremely popular with this eerie music; just a few words could fit all music, and it seemed related to cats.
“Da~ da~”
Urgent footsteps sounded from inside the villa, the sound somewhat muffled for some reason.
“Please wait a moment.”
A clear and pleasant voice came through the door into the four’s ears.
Dai Ying and Huo Zhanji exchanged a glance, each seeing the doubt and bewilderment in the other’s eyes.
“Sister? What’s going on?”
Dai Ying shook her head and said:
“Not sure, maybe Father’s friend’s sister from this timeline?”
“Don’t worry about it now; first think about what to say when we see Father.”
Soon, the door opened; Dai Ying and Huo Zhanji both swallowed and began organizing their words.
“Meow~”
What first came into view wasn’t that familiar figure, but an especially large black cat head.
The black giant cat’s fur was glossy and smooth, with extremely strong soul power fluctuations; it was probably close to ten thousand years old.
Huo Zhanji recognized this soul beast as the Shadow Cat, a soul beast extinct in the future with weak bloodline—this one was nearly ten thousand years old! And so fat!
Soon, a small head peeked slightly from behind the Shadow Cat, with white-purple hair; her indifferent face showed slight nervousness, as if not used to talking to strangers, her gemstone-like eyes revealing doubt.
“May I ask who you two are?”
Xia Die held the Shadow Cat, standing behind the gate.
And behind the two, Adam slightly revealed his figure, giving Xia Die a gentle smile before disappearing again.
Xia Die’s eyes lit up slightly, her nervousness easing considerably.
