I can find treasures in my dreams.

Yang Wanyu thought for a moment, then raised her hand and summoned a carrier pigeon, tentatively sending a message to her father: "Dad, are you back?"

Of course she knew that her father had left Azure Star and gone to another world.

But she felt that with her father's abilities, it was entirely possible for him to project a soul into the dream world from afar.

as predicted.

Only two seconds had passed.

A carrier pigeon flapped its wings and appeared above the training room.

Yang Yanchen exclaimed with delight, "Dad's carrier pigeon!"

Yang Wanyu stretched out a hand towards the carrier pigeon, which landed lightly on her hand.

She immediately received a message in her mind: "I am in the 'Stargazing Pavilion' on the top floor of Dream Paradise. I will now open the passage for you. Come up together."

Yang Wanyu replied cheerfully, "Okay, Dad!"

The Star Gazing Pavilion has always been the most mysterious place in the Dream City. Although she has the authority of a deputy city lord, she is still not qualified to enter it.

soon.

A beam of white light descended from the sky, transforming into a hazy, illusory gate.

Yang Wanyu stepped forward, pushed open the door, and strode inside, followed closely by Yang Yanchen.

After passing through the gate, the siblings did not see the scene they had imagined.

According to their expectations, judging from the name "Guanxing Pavilion," it should be a classical building from the Xia Dynasty.

But what appeared before them was an old city.

Judging from the architectural style, this is clearly a city of the Great Xia Dynasty before the arrival of the era of natural disasters.

Although there are many high-rise buildings in the city, giving it a prosperous feel.

By modern standards, these buildings are outdated, simply piles of steel and concrete with virtually no smart features, making them obviously uncomfortably unlivable.

Yang Fan was standing in a dilapidated residential area.

The buildings in the community are generally only a dozen stories high, and the exterior walls of many buildings have even peeled off.

In today's world, this is simply unimaginable.

Nowadays, building exteriors are generally made of lightweight hard alloys, which are not only acid and alkali resistant and will not rust, but also will not attract dust or other stains, and will still look brand new after ten years.

Yang Fan stood beneath a large, leafy tree, smiling broadly as he looked at his two children.

Yang Yanchen happily called out "Dad!" and then ran over.

Ever since the leech attack, the boy had been on edge, but the moment he saw his father, he finally felt a strong sense of security.

Yang Wanyu looked around and asked, "Dad, is this the old Linjiang City?"

Yang Fan hummed in agreement: "I grew up here. Sometimes I recreate the old Linjiang City in the Star Gazing Pavilion and then take a walk around the city."

Yang Wanyu blurted out, "I know, this is Yuewan Community. My mother told me about it."

She knew that this dilapidated Yuewan residential community was the starting point of all the legends.

Yang Yanchen asked curiously, "Dad, so is this Linjiang City an illusion? But why does everything here feel so real?"

Yang Fan gave a strange answer: "Yes and no."

The siblings were a little confused.

Yang Fan thought for a moment and explained, "From a material perspective, everything here has some material properties and cannot be completely considered an illusion."

His next sentence was quite frightening: "From a non-material perspective, this is the Linjiang City of the past that I found in the river of time, and let its projection descend here, so in a sense it is also an illusion."

The siblings were both stunned.

How can a city from the past be projected out from the river of time? What kind of magical ability is this?
In fact, the mastermind behind this possesses supernatural artifacts at the level of laws, capable of concealing the present situation.

But it cannot cover up the past.

For Yang Fan, this was the enemy's weakness.

It was precisely because he possessed the ability to roam freely through the river of time that he was able to use a clone as a price to travel back through the river of time from the dream world and finally find a clue about the mastermind behind it all.

Yang Wanyu couldn't help but say, "Dad, you're amazing!"

Yang Fan glanced at his children, then looked at Yuewan Community, his tone full of regret: "It's a pity you've never met your grandparents."

Yang Wanyu quickly said, "If Grandpa and Grandma could see from beyond the grave, they would be overjoyed to know about Dad's achievements."

She also knew that her father was her grandparents' late-life son, and that the two elders had passed away three years before the natural disasters, leaving her father all alone.

For others, without the support of their parents and without an outstanding education, life would certainly be very difficult.

Who would have thought that the father would stage a "rags-to-riches" story?

He rose from an ordinary person to become the recipient of the highest national medal of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Later, he became the richest man in the People's Federation, and his influence was beyond imagination.

Many heads of administrative districts would consider it an honor to meet their father.

Yang Fan shook his head slightly and sighed, "Even if I had all these abilities now, I still wouldn't be able to bring them back to life."

Before the era of natural disasters, there were no supernatural powers, and the concept of a soul simply did not exist; when a person died, they were truly dead.

His daughter's words about "a spirit in the afterlife" were just meant to comfort him.

Seeing that her father was a little sad, Yang Wanyu quickly changed the subject: "Dad, why did you come back?"

Yang Fan spoke frankly: "I found a key clue about the mastermind behind the attack on Yan Chen. The other party used a powerful piece of equipment called 'The Fate Writer' in an attempt to corrupt Yan Chen's fate."

He did not explain the consequences of the "pollution," but it is easy to imagine that the only outcome would be death.

Yang Fan smiled and said, "But now that I know about the existence of the Fate Writer, the mastermind behind the scenes can no longer threaten Yan Chen."

He paused for a moment and then made arrangements: "For the time being, the two of you will stay in the Star Gazing Pavilion."

The siblings instantly understood that the Star Gazing Pavilion possessed extremely powerful protective capabilities, capable of resisting the enemy's attempts to corrupt their destiny.

Yang Fan didn't give the siblings a chance to speak, and immediately said, "I don't have time to stay here any longer, I have to leave."

Yang Wanyu exclaimed "Ah!" with a face full of reluctance: "So soon?!"

Yang Fan gave his daughter one last instruction, "Take good care of your younger brother," before his figure blurred and disappeared a moment later.

at the same time.

A breathtaking sight appeared.

Time seemed to reverse, and Linjiang City began to change rapidly. Old high-rise buildings disappeared one by one, and even older buildings emerged at breakneck speed.

Then it transformed into the scene before the founding of the Great Xia Dynasty, followed by the even more ancient feudal era, with wooden houses everywhere.

As time went by, Linjiang City eventually became a wasteland.

By this time.

Time stood still.

The surroundings gradually darkened, the sky transformed into an infinitely brilliant starry sky, and the earth became a square chessboard.

The siblings were stunned for a while before they came to their senses.

Yang Yanchen was still quite shocked: "My God!"

Yang Wanyu gazed at the starry sky and muttered, "No wonder this place is called the Star Gazing Pavilion." (End of Chapter)
