Simultaneous travel: I am proving the great way in the heavens.

Chapter 668 An Accidental Time Travel to the Republic of China Era! A Double Dislocation of Time and Space!
"Fifth Young Master, what just happened? Where is the person who obtained the power of the demon?" Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden asked in an accusatory tone.

The Fifth Young Master's face darkened.

"What do you think you are? Do you really think that just because someone praises you as the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden, you're some kind of celestial war goddess? Let me tell you, you're just a bird. You have no right to yell at me like that. I've eaten your Kunlun Mystic Bird before."

The Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden remained unmoved, still speaking in a questioning tone: "Fifth Young Master, I ask you, where is the person who obtained the power of the human demon? You know the attitude of Kunlun and the Underworld. He can die at your hands, but he absolutely cannot be allowed to escape."

His expression suddenly stiffened, and the Fifth Young Master said somewhat guiltily, "How would I know? That guy is probably dead beyond recognition, his soul scattered. I didn't expect him to be so resolute. Just because he didn't want me to leave, he chose to self-destruct. Even that bottle world was blown to smithereens."

"Is he really dead?" the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden asked in a deep voice.

Even knowing he had caused trouble, the Fifth Prince was known for his arrogance. He dared to defy even his father, the Dragon King, so how could he possibly accept being questioned like this by the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden?

"That's right. In my eyes, he's dead. If you don't believe me, go find him yourself."

The moment he finished speaking, the Fifth Young Master turned and left without a second thought.

Neither the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden nor Zhao Li showed any intention of interfering.

They watched helplessly as the Fifth Young Master left the convenience store.

Only after the Fifth Prince disappeared from sight did the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden say to Zhao Li, "I will report this matter to Kunlun. I hope that your Underworld will not harbor any illusions. Chi You and the Human Demon can no longer be regarded as the same!"

Although Zhao Li didn't quite understand the meaning of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady.

What does it mean that Chi You and the human demon cannot be equated?

Chi You is just a human demon, and a human demon is just Chi You.

However, Zhao Li did not speak at this moment. Instead, he nodded and said, "I will report this matter to the King of the Underworld. How the King of the Underworld decides is not something I can comment on."

The Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden seemed satisfied with this, nodding before turning her gaze back to the bottle.

During this time, Zhao Li also reported the news to Hades Acha through the underworld's communication channels.

In the underworld.

Luo Fu's earlier self-destruction did indeed serve to confuse the enemy.

Even Hades Acha didn't notice any clues and truly believed that Luo Fu was choosing to die rather than live in dishonor because he refused to let the Fifth Prince leave.

Upon receiving the message from Zhao Li, Hades Acha sighed softly and murmured, "Chi You is Chi You, but is a human demon a human demon?"

After a moment's thought, Hades Acha said, "I understand. Tell Zhao Li to keep an eye on Xia Dongqing. As for the demon Luofu, I will arrange for new personnel to investigate."

"Human Demon" was another name for Chi You back then.

But now, the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden has first severed the connection between the human demon and Chi You.

Hades Acha seemed to be happy about this. In her heart, her brother was Chi You. As for the demon, that was just a way for Kunlun in the heavens to belittle Chi You, who dared to lead the primitive people to rebel against their rule as gods.

But when such a title was bestowed upon Luofu, Hades Acha had no objection.

To be precise, "human demon" is more like a derogatory term for an existence that possesses power but is not under the protection of the many major powers in the Three Realms, and instead disrupts the order of the Three Realms.

Chi You has not yet been resurrected, and his remaining remnant soul is still being nurtured within Xia Dongqing's body.

For Hades Acha, it was actually a good thing to call Luo Fu a demon. Doing so would inevitably attract some people's attention to Luo Fu instead of keeping a close eye on Xia Dongqing.

Whether Luo Fu is dead or alive is not important; what is important is that it is a plausible excuse.

After all, Chi You's terror and power were known to all the heavens of the Three Realms, and no one wanted another Chi You to appear.

The remnant soul of Chi You within Xia Dongqing's body was already being closely watched by countless forces in the Three Realms, let alone Luo Fu, who had truly obtained the power of Chi You.

To some extent, Hades Acha's actions can be seen as siding with his own people rather than being reasonable.

Moreover, the moment Luo Fu obtained Chi You's power, even if he was right, he became wrong.

The so-called principle is a convention agreed upon in the three realms, and anyone who challenges this convention will be labeled a demon.

Separating the human demon from Chi You would be beneficial to Hades Acha's dream of resurrecting her brother.

Therefore, Hades Acha would certainly not care about the fate of Luofu, this variable.

Moreover, Hades Acha did not believe that Luofu could survive such a self-destruction.

Countless people in the Three Realms were deeply shocked when they witnessed the battle between Luo Fu and the Fifth Prince Taotie, and Luo Fu ultimately chose to self-destruct.

Even some people who previously only knew of the existence of demons but were unclear about what they had done now had a clear understanding of demons.

The label of "human demon" was attached to Luofu, a view shared by almost everyone in the Three Realms.

The consequence of failing to challenge the established order is stigmatization.

While everyone in the Three Realms remained outwardly calm, they secretly began investigating whether Luo Fu was dead or alive, all while keeping a close eye on Xia Dongqing. At this time, Luo Fu seemed to have vanished without a trace.

Inside convenience store number 444.

Having found himself in another world inside a bottle, Xia Dongqing, after experiencing some twists and turns, finally pushed open the door of the convenience store warehouse without hesitation.

As I stepped into the white light.

The familiar scene that appeared before his eyes once again made Xia Dongqing freeze for a moment.

Zhao Li, dressed in black, stood behind the counter, while Wang Xiaoya stared intently at a bottle.

Her actions sent chills down Xia Dongqing's spine, and he instantly recalled the eerie moon he had seen when he was driving to the No. 444 convenience store.

Just as Xia Dongqing was deeply shocked, the familiar scene inside the No. 444 convenience store in front of him vanished in an instant, like a dream, and was replaced by a mysterious and enigmatic scene, where the world seemed to have lost its meaning.

Only Zhao Li, Wang Xiaoya, and that strange bottle remained on the list.

"Xiaoya, Zhao Li, what... what exactly happened?"

With a flick of her wrist, the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden put away the bottle and stared at Xia Dongqing, saying, "I am not Wang Xiaoya, I am the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden of Kunlun in the Heavenly Realm."

"Dongqing, now you know, right? Those eyes of yours weren't given to you by me," Zhao Li said with a smile.

Xia Dongqing had no time to pay attention to these cosplay-like arguments; he was more interested in knowing what had happened to him.

"Tell me first, what exactly happened?"

The Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden and Zhao Li were well aware of Xia Dongqing's doubts.

But now, neither of them seemed inclined to explain anything to Xia Dongqing. As they said before, what truly mattered to them, what prompted the Heavenly Realm and the Underworld to send a Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden and a ghost messenger who had served for a thousand years to keep an eye on, was never Xia Dongqing, but rather the remnant soul of Chi You within him.

Xia Dongqing, who does not possess the remnant soul of Chi You, would not be taken seriously at all. At most, he was only associated with Zhao Li because of his past life, A Jin. But this connection would not alarm the underworld, much less attract the attention of the heavenly realm.

Confused and bewildered, Xia Dongqing not only failed to get the answers he wanted from Zhao Li and 'Wang Xiaoya', but also, under their influence, entered the real world in a daze.

Meanwhile, Xia Dongqing, like a puppet on a string, entered the real world step by step and began to take the postgraduate entrance examination.

After his battle with the Fifth Prince Taotie, Luo Fu took advantage of the shattering of the bottle space to successfully smuggle himself from the bottle world into the real world.

However, it seems there was a slight deviation from his expectations.

The real world that Luo Fu entered was vastly different from the world of the bottle, both in terms of space and time.

In the pendulum world, traversing time is never an impossible thing.

Putting aside everything else, that star that descended from outer space possesses the power to allow people to transcend time, even spanning thousands of years in terms of time scale.

And the place where Luofu appeared was precisely during the late Qing Dynasty.

Moreover, it is a truly authentic ancient city.

Undoubtedly, this was an era of widespread suffering, but it was precisely in this era that Luofu was able to perfectly hide itself.

After all, the real world is at roughly the same point in time as the previous bottle world, with a difference of almost no more than one year. The household registration system and other aspects mean that it will inevitably take some effort for Luo Fu to come to the real world.

He is not like Xia Dongqing, whose everything is arranged by the Heavenly Realm and the Underworld.

Who knows what Luo Fu's identity is in the real world?

However, Luo Fu doesn't need to worry, as he must live from this era into the future.

After all, he had laid the groundwork in the real world beforehand.

Whether it was Zhou Jie, who was initially used as a test subject, or Su Yue and his wife, who were later arranged by Luo Fu to pave the way.

Unlike Luofu, which needed the help of the Fifth Prince Taotie to perfectly achieve its goal of smuggling itself into the real world, the battle between the two sides created a double displacement of time and space.

Even in the Republican era, Luo Fu still felt that the real world was anchored by Zhou Jie and Su Yue.

With his current strength, he certainly cannot directly complete time travel in this world.

However, by using indirect methods, it's still possible to sneak across again and complete the time-related smuggling.

This method of smuggling is still the same old trick: using the Divine Might Space.

Yes, at this stage, the Divine Might Space has only been granted the ability to control the Luofu Space, and has not yet ventured into the realm of time.

However, the Divine Might Space itself possesses a foundation independent of the world, which means that, to a certain extent, the influence of time on the Divine Might Space is entirely dependent on Luofu itself.

At the same time, the Divine Might Space also has the ability to achieve spatial travel after leaving a mark.

In this process, if Luo Fu uses the spatial anchor points on Zhou Jie and Su Yue as a means to complete the spatial leap with the help of the divine power space.

Because he is independent of the world, he can also travel through time, going directly from the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China era back to the era of Zhou Jie and Su Yue.

Although the previous battle with the Fifth Prince Taotie was just a show, the Fifth Prince was completely unaware that he had been passively made a part of Luofu's plan, helping him to complete his smuggling plan.

But that battle was real, and Luo Fu's own consumption of energy was not to be underestimated.

For Luofu, returning directly at this stage is not appropriate.

Who knows what the real world is like right now? At the very least, Luo Fu needs to get himself into the best possible condition first.

At the same time, after looking around, Luo Fu also determined his current location.

The information provided to Luofu was none other than a murder currently taking place in this ancient city.

A seemingly honest and unassuming man used incredibly cruel methods to wipe out a rather wealthy family.

Not far from the murder site, a simple noodle shop stood with its doors tightly shut.

Clearly, this is the ancient city that only appeared in Zhao Li's memories.

This is a place where countless human joys and sorrows have occurred. However, in this era, joy belongs only to those who are high above, rich and noble, while sorrow is the norm for the common people.

The murder victim was a notorious loan shark in the ancient city.

The murderer was none other than Old Chen, the owner of Yangchun Noodle Shop, who would soon be executed.

Right now, it was the moment when Old Chen, in a fit of rage, wiped out the entire loan shark family.

Normally, even in the Qing Dynasty, a serious criminal like Lao Chen shouldn't have been executed so quickly, but who can blame him when we live in a chaotic world?

There is no doubt that Old Chen committed a crime of passion, and in a way, he deserved to die. It's just a pity that, in the final analysis, it was the era that forced him into a corner.

Even after he died, Old Chen still swore to Zhao Li that he had no regrets.

Just as Luo Fu realized the point in time he was currently at.

Having just committed murder, Old Chen hurriedly left Old Wu's house.

The sight of Old Chen covered in blood on the bustling street immediately caused panic.

It's easy to guess that Old Chen had absolutely no intention of dealing with the aftermath.

It's almost certain that he committed murder.

Sure enough, before Old Chen had gone far from Old Wu's house, he was surrounded by several soldiers and tied up.

A murder case was solved almost immediately at the scene.

After the murder charge was confirmed, the county magistrate, who knew the details, sentenced Old Chen to beheading in less than an hour.

In the current chaotic situation, a mere county magistrate can arbitrarily take a life, even if the person has committed murder. Under normal circumstances, the case file should be handed over to the higher authorities.

Old Chen was about to be beheaded.

Luo Fu let out a soft sigh.

An invisible force instantly enveloped the execution ground. To everyone else, Old Chen appeared to be beheaded with a single stroke, but in reality, the executioner's blade struck empty air. Yet, the executioner's senses clearly told him that he had completed his task of beheading the prisoner.
