Ultimate: Gangster Youth, starting with release from prison

Xiao Lan blushed slightly and retorted coquettishly, "No way, sister will always be the person I love the most, and I will always be your little sister."

After saying goodbye to her sister, Xiaolan felt much lighter, because she was about to travel to the Iron Dimension, where she would not only meet her sweetheart but also lend him a helping hand, no longer just a little girl hiding in the background.

"Lin Yu, wait for me, I will see you soon."

Meanwhile, Li Yanyan returned to her room, retrieved a chipped cell phone from deep within the bookshelf, and after much deliberation, finally dialed the long-forgotten number. The endless dialing made her heart pound until the other party, 723, answered.

"Hello, what's up?" came the voice on the other end of the phone.

Li Yanyan's tone was slightly urgent: "Uncle, can we meet? I have some questions I'd like to ask you."

After the call ended, Li Yanyan was in a state of turmoil, her thoughts drifting back to more than ten years ago.

At that time, her father had not yet become the head of the Li family, and was not even outstanding among the many heirs.

Young and ambitious, Li's father ventured into the Gold Dimension with dreams in his heart, but his recklessness made enemies and led to his being hunted down overseas. At the same time, the Li family was in decline, and coupled with internal strife, he was isolated and helpless, almost to the point of despair.

Just when all hope seemed lost, a young man descended like a god, effortlessly rescuing him. The young man was only a teenager, yet his combat strength index reached a staggering 20,000, earning him the reputation of "King of Assassins" in the assassin world.

Li's father, only a teenager at the time, possessed a fighting strength of just a few thousand. After being rescued, he greatly admired this peer. By chance, he was able to follow him, greatly increasing his strength and gaining assistance in the family's struggles, eventually ascending to the position of family head.

[362] Li Tianming went to Dao Feng for help!

Unfortunately, this king of assassins chose to retire from the underworld at the peak of his career, not wanting anyone to easily disturb his peaceful life.

If it weren't for his daughter, Li's father wouldn't have broken this tranquility.

Just as he was lost in his memories, his phone vibrated again. It was his former idol setting a time and place for their meeting.

"Sigh, even now, as the head of the clan, I still find it hard to remain calm in the face of him." Father Li smiled awkwardly.

When the appointed day arrived, Father Li arrived ahead of time, his heart filled with mixed feelings, and time seemed to fly by at the same time.

Finally, a figure slowly appeared. He was no longer the sharp and sharp top assassin from memory. Time had left its mark on him; he was slightly thin, and his gray hair indicated that his youth had passed.

Father Li quickly rose to greet this man who was both a brother and a mentor to him. If Xiao Lan were here, she would be astonished to learn that her father and Wang Da Dong's father had a secret relationship.

That's right, this legendary figure is none other than Dao Feng, Wang Da Dong's father, and the strongest assassin in the world.

Dao Feng stepped forward slowly and said calmly, "Sit down."

Upon hearing that familiar voice and address, Father Li's eyes welled up with tears: "Big Brother!"

Dao Feng smiled upon hearing this: "Tianming, what happened that you wanted to see me today?"

Facing the white-haired elder brother, Li Tianming hesitated, wanting to speak but holding back. Seeing this, Dao Feng deliberately put on a stern face and urged him on.

"As the head of the family, why are you being so indecisive? Just say what you need to say directly."

Li Tianming gritted his teeth and said what was on his mind: "Brother, I really need you this time!"

Then, he told Dao Feng everything about his youngest daughter's plan to go to the Iron Dimension.

After a long silence, Dao Feng finally revealed the secret that he had twice used his primordial spirit to save his life, and that his combat power had only recovered to a little over six thousand.

Upon hearing this, Li Tianming stood up abruptly, staring at his elder brother in disbelief: "What? Brother, you actually practiced that forbidden technique, and used it twice? Most people would be in grave danger even using it once, and you actually... used it twice?"

"Sigh, there are some things that must be done." Dao Feng's tone was calm and unperturbed.

Li Tianming also thought of his wife and daughter, nodded silently, and sat back down in his chair.

"I probably can't help you anymore!" Dao Feng said helplessly.

Upon seeing this, Li Tianming felt a mix of emotions. The once peerless expert who looked down upon his peers was now uttering such poignant words. Not wanting to trouble his elder brother any further, he tried to change the subject.

Dao Feng knew perfectly well that his brother, with whom he had shared many hardships, was trying to avoid the topic of helping because he was afraid of hurting his pride.

"Although my strength is limited, I can still help you with weapons."

"To get to the Iron Dimension, a time-traveling phone is essential, and your sister-in-law, Dao Gui, has made quite a few new things, which should all come in handy," Dao Feng said slowly.

Upon hearing this, Li Tianming felt both guilty and delighted. He felt guilty for not being able to repay his elder brother's kindness and for needing his help, but he was also delighted that with the weapon made by Dao Gui himself, his youngest daughter would be safer, and he could feel much more at ease.

"Brother, thank you!" Li Tianming said excitedly.

Dao Feng waved gratefully, and the two recalled the glorious years when they fought side by side in their youth. They talked about the fun things that happened when they were young, and time flew by in laughter. In the blink of an eye, it was time to say goodbye.

Perhaps it was because of their advanced age and increased sentimentality, but as they parted, their eyes welled up with tears. He was once a brother to whom they could entrust their backs, but now they were worlds apart, with little hope of ever meeting again.

But life is full of partings and reunions, and we must eventually say goodbye.

Li Tianming returned to the Li family with the two time-traveling cell phones and the energy protection ring given to him by Dao Feng.

Introduction to Energy Protection Rings

[A weapon crafted by Dao Gui himself. When attacked, it automatically forms an energy shield. Its characteristic is that it does not require the ability user to activate it. It can automatically defend against attacks with a combat power of less than 40,000. Ordinary people can also use it!]

However, it should be noted that each activation only lasts for twenty minutes. Afterward, a player with a combat power of over 30,000 needs to recharge it for five consecutive days to restore the effect. This is a burden for skilled players, but a boon for beginners and ordinary players.

After returning home, Li Tianming summoned his youngest daughter.

The powerful figures dispatched by the family are already waiting at the Li family, fully prepared.

He gave Xiaolan all the prepared equipment—magic control liquid, time-space intermodal devices, and energy protection rings—and personally escorted her to the repaired time-space portal.

Experts are no strangers to time travel, so there's no need to worry about problems arising.

At the door, Li Tianming (Zhao Liaohao) said affectionately to his daughter, "Xiao Lan, I'm sorry, Dad can't go with you."

"After becoming the head of the family, although I have great power, my fate is no longer in my own hands, and I can no longer go to the Iron Dimension with you to protect you."

Behind every power, there is always a price to pay.

If Li Tianming insists on going along with him, not only will he lose the control over the magic liquid, but he might even be imprisoned by the family and lose his position as family head. Once he loses power, his former rivals will likely not let him off the hook.

Xiao Lan is quite lucky. She is in love with Lin Yu, and her combat power is incredibly strong. She is also exceptionally talented.

If it weren't for Xiaolan's insistence, and their overwhelming numbers, no matter how hard Li Tianming and Li Yanyan tried, she wouldn't have been able to change her fate.

【363】In the Iron Dimension, Lin Yu is trapped in an endless illusion.

Li Yanyan felt a pang of sorrow in her heart, as if she wasn't walking her own path, but being pushed forward by an invisible hand.

Hearing what her father said, she felt a mix of emotions, filled with guilt towards her parents.

She suddenly leaned into her father's arms, hugging him tightly, as if that would melt away all her unease and guilt.

Time passed quietly until she slowly let go of his hand. She realized that for her sake, her father had bowed his head, pleaded with many people, and overcome numerous obstacles and difficulties from his family, all to obtain that precious "magic control liquid" for her.

She longed to tell her father that she didn't want to go to Lin Yu's timeline anymore, and that she wanted to stay and be by his side.

But whenever this thought came to mind, her deep longing for Lin Yu felt like a boulder stuck in her throat, making it difficult for her to speak.

In the end, she suppressed her inner turmoil and embarked on the long journey to find Lin Yu.

In the Iron Dimension, Lin Yu, who was sleeping on the bed, suddenly felt his tightly closed eyelids tremble slightly, and tears slid down his cheeks.

He seemed to have just woken up from a long dream in which he returned to a world he once knew.

Every detail of that world felt so real that he momentarily felt as if his experience in the ultimate world was an illusion. In his dream, he saw his mother, whose kind smile was like warm sunshine, making him unable to hold back his tears.

How he longed to stay in that illusory world, to be with his mother, to tell her everything, to tell her how much he missed her, how much he wished time could turn back, so that he could once again be by the side of the person who had protected him all his life.

However, in the dream, the mother smiled, her voice full of love.

"Xiao Yu, this is not a place for you to linger. Leave quickly, there are people who need you." As soon as the words were spoken, the dream shattered like a mirage, and no matter how hard he tried, he could not stop his mother's figure from disappearing again.

Lin Yu felt a sharp pain in his heart, almost suffocating him.

Then he fell into an endless void, and no matter which way he walked, he could not find a way out.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, the environment changed, and he arrived at a frozen land where a mysterious person stood.

The man slowly rose, a flash of sword light in his hand cleaving the frozen world before him in two, causing it to collapse and crumble. Then, the terrifying figure seemed to turn towards him, raising its sword and slowly slashing down.

Although the sword strike was slow, it left Lin Yu feeling like he had nowhere to escape, as if death was inevitable.

Suddenly, he woke up with a start, gasping for breath. The image of the sword from his dream still lingered in his mind, and the shadow of fear lingered for a long time.

The environment was too real, too terrifying; a single move could end a world. Recalling that moment, he was still filled with immense fear and could not find peace.

Just then, a sound came from outside the door, and Wang Dadong walked in, intending to give him some energy potions.

Because he had been in a deep sleep for a long time and unable to eat, he could only rely on medication to maintain his strength. Wang Dadong and Xiu had already recovered, but he was the only one who had not yet woken up, causing everyone great concern.

After examination by the doctor with superpowers, no cause could be found; he was simply in a deep sleep.

When Wang Dadong saw Lin Xuan open his eyes, a huge weight was lifted from his heart. Lin Xuan, still somewhat dazed, asked how long he had been unconscious.

"Da Dong, how long have I been asleep?"

"It's been ten days. Xiu and I recovered in two days, but you hadn't woken up, and everyone was worried sick. Now that you're finally awake, I'm going to tell everyone about it."

Lin Xuan quickly stopped him: "Wait, Da Dong, has the situation in the Iron Dimension worsened?"

Wang Dadong's expression darkened, and his smile faded: "The situation is not good. Although I have fully recovered and am helping Xia Tian, ​​his injuries are quite severe, and he needs time."

Moreover, demons from the Demon Realm are now everywhere, and with the Alliance Leader missing and Xia Tian injured, the protective magnetic field is barely maintained by Xiu alone, making it extremely fragile.

"Those despicable guys are currently only being resisted by the Three Guardians of Time and Space. Now that you're awake, our fighting strength will increase significantly, and the situation may improve."

Hearing this, Lin Xuan realized the situation was worse than he had anticipated. He quickly got up, ready to rejoin the fight. After tidying himself up, he followed Wang Dadong downstairs.

The Xia family home was unusually quiet with only a few people present.
