"That's my name. If you find that troublesome, you can just call me Qi... or Nian, either is fine. Of course, I prefer people to call me Qi Nian."

"In ancient times, people prayed for my protection and a good harvest, and they generally called me by this name. Later, it gradually developed into people calling out this name to pray for blessings on major festivals. It can be considered a kind of recognition of me by everyone."

Qinian scratched his little head, a hint of smugness showing on his face.

That was the first time Xie Bai had seen any other expression on the other person's face.

"Oh right, I forgot to tell you earlier, I don't actually belong to this world. I accidentally ended up here because of a little accident... I should have explained this from the beginning."

Upon hearing this explanation, Xie Bai, who was still pondering, was immediately taken aback.

From another world...

Why does this setting sound so familiar?

Speaking of which, hasn't that time-traveling witch from the Golden Timeline finished figuring out her way home yet?

Seeing Xie Bai's expression that was "somewhat surprised, but still within acceptable limits," Qi Nian narrowed his eyes.

"It seems you've encountered other visitors from outside. Let me guess... was it that little blue-haired witch?"

"Um?"

"Don't be so surprised. I've actually met her before in my original world. I didn't expect to see her here. She's such a lively little one."

As she spoke, Qinian floated leisurely beside Xie Bai, seemingly not regarding Xie Bai as an invader at all.

Listening to the other party's explanation, Xie Bai gradually calmed down.

She looked at Qinian's appearance and asked tentatively.

"So, you're the... High Ancestor that Azsharax and the others were talking about?"

"Huh?"

Upon hearing Xie Bai's question, Qinian was taken aback, then covered her face and mumbled.

"Great-grandfather? Hmm... Didn't I remind those kids not to call me that? It doesn't sound nice at all, and it makes me look so old..."

A faint blush rose on Qinian's cheeks, making him look completely different from his previous composed demeanor.

After grumbling for a while, the other person took a deep breath and forced himself to regain his previous calm demeanor.

"Ahem... You're right, I am indeed the one you're talking about... uh... my great-grandfather."

Qinian quickly skipped over the last phrase and immediately moved on to the next sentence.

"When I first came to this world, it should have been the third era of this world. At that time, there was no concept of dragons here. It was on the condition of bearing the world that I integrated my body into this primordial area, thus bringing a part of the concept of dragons to this world."

"Those little guys, though born for different reasons, all of them respect me without exception. A while ago, due to some minor troubles, I had them slumber in the space between the world and the origin zone. Logically, now is the time to release them all, but..."

Halfway through his sentence, Qi Nian suddenly glanced at Xie Bai.

"Hmm, perhaps the minor troubles haven't been completely resolved yet. Just to be on the safe side, let's wait a little longer."

Listening to the other person's explanation, Xie Bai felt an inexplicable urge to immediately cover the other person's mouth shut.

"So, what's with your current appearance? You're not trying to say it's because of me, are you...?"

Faced with Xie Bai's low questioning, Qinian replied matter-of-factly.

"Hmm...you could say that. After all, you'd be unhappy if I were taller than you, so I can only hide my original 1.7-meter mature form and specifically choose this smallest one...Ugh!"

Before she could finish speaking, Xie Bai covered her mouth tightly, and all the words she uttered turned into muffled sobs.

"Alright, stop with the nonsense and tell me what's going on here and how to clean up those contamination spots."

"If you can't answer that, I'll have to use you as an example."

After Xie Bai finished speaking the threatening words, he removed his hand from Qinian's mouth.

"Whoa...!"

After breaking free from Xie Bai's restraints, Qinian immediately bent over and gasped for breath.

A moment later, she raised her head, put on a weak and pitiful look, and hugged her shoulders as she said sadly.

"Honestly, she had a husband and children, and then she was accidentally dragged into this world. She's a complete stranger here, with no one to rely on. I don't even know what to do if she's bullied... Waaah..."

Seeing the other person's closed eyes and sobbing, Xie Bai felt as if his innocence had been greatly tarnished, and he clenched his right hand into a fist.

Seemingly sensing Xie Bai's emotional fluctuations, Qi Nian suddenly coughed lightly and changed the subject.

"Luckily, the people here are very kind. Whenever I encounter trouble, someone is always willing to help me. This lovely little... big sister, I'm currently facing some minor trouble. I wonder if you would be willing to help me..."

As she spoke, Qi Nian half-covered her face, revealing a pair of small, exquisite, and captivating golden eyes as she looked at Xie Bai.

"Tsk... Didn't I say from the beginning that I would help you solve the problem here...? Are you just trying to disgust me?"

"Hmm... How could this be... I've never met you before... We have no grudge against each other... Why would you do this..."

Qinian continued to cover her small face, maintaining her delicate appearance.

"Since you have no problem with it, I'll just get straight to the point."

"You should know the concept of the end times, right?"

Upon hearing the other person utter this word, Xie Bai nodded subconsciously.

Seeing this, Qinian continued.

"As you know, the end means the end of the world, and to achieve this goal, we must first eliminate the bearer of this world."

"Therefore, I actually faced most of the power of the end, and in a way, I am also the one who suppresses the end."

"In the process of suppressing the end, it is inevitable to suffer some injuries. As you can see, the source area is almost entirely covered with my blood. That blood, mixed with the aura of the end, has been left here and has become an old wound of the world over time. Accumulated day and night, it has also caused considerable damage to my strength."

"Not only that, the power of the end has recently been strengthened, making it even more difficult to suppress than before. Look, some of its aura has even escaped into the deep sea. That little jellyfish that controls the waters is still crying and whining."

Qinian's voice grew softer and softer, and he kept giving Xie Bai meaningful glances, as if to say, "You certainly won't sit idly by, will you?"

Indeed, whether considering the ultimate dangers or the promise to Elira, Xie Bai would not stand idly by.

Moreover, only she has the ability to handle such a major issue, so it cannot be ignored.

"Okay, but I might..."

"Wait…!"

Qinian suddenly interrupted.

"Relying on the power of the void to counteract the end is out of the question... I have a better solution."

As she spoke, she quickly floated to Xie Bai's side.

Before Xie Bai could react, Qinian lightly tapped her forehead with her finger.

The next second, a brand new notification appeared in front of Xie Bai.
