Swallowing the Stars: You Can't Escape, Mountain Dweller

Chapter 382 Time That Cannot Be Reversed

Bai Yang heard that the giant axe had seriously agreed to his request, even though his tone was very relaxed.

But he was absolutely certain that Giant Axe was a man of his word.

His promise is priceless!

Before that moment, Bai Yang had been torn between his inner thoughts and his external stimuli.

What should he do if the giant axe doesn't agree?

Will he still try to salvage the fate of the giant axe when it falls?

He would never betray the human race, but he could choose not to do certain things.

The moment the giant axe agreed, it helped Bai Yang, helped the Earth, and saved itself.

Bai Yang bowed deeply to him and said gratefully, "Thank you!"

He decided to do his best to do this and not let others down.

The Lord of Chaos City escorted Bai Yang back alone, waiting until his figure completely disappeared from this space.

The Lord of Chaos looked at the giant axe, his expression somewhat complicated.

Why did you agree to his request so easily?

Giant Axe laughed and countered, "Then what do you think I should do?"

The Lord of Chaos City said:

"Don't you want to find out what his secret is?"

Giant Axe nodded and said, "I really want to. But do you think he'll say it on his own initiative?"

You can also tell that he is the same kind of person as us.

Once you've made up your mind about something, you'll never compromise on it.

We cannot repeat the same mistakes. I have a feeling that Bai Yang will be far more terrifying and troublesome than [him] in the future.

These words were loaded with meaning, and the Chaos City Lord frowned as he spoke:

"You mean that traitor?"

With his hands behind his back and gazing into the distance, the giant axe said:

"Chaos, have you noticed it?"

"That person also hails from the Qianwu Universe Kingdom, and also comes from that place in the current Black Dragon Mountain Starfield?"

The Lord of Chaos City raised an eyebrow, greatly surprised.

"I really didn't notice."

The giant axe turned to look at him and said:

"You and Long Xing are both too used to using the initial universe to check whether others are aliens."

But sometimes, we overlook some obvious information.

The Lord of Chaos City frowned and immediately checked the information of both people at the same time.

He even found out about another person, Luo Feng, who has been performing increasingly well in this year's Genius Battle.

"Qianwu Universe Kingdom, Black Dragon Mountain Star Region, Milky Way Galaxy!"

Earth!?"

Emperor Yan, Cao Benqi, Bai Yang, and Luo Feng all actually came from the same planet!

"Unbelievable!?"

Giant Axe, however, showed no surprise, as if he had known all along.

"Shadow Lord, you've done a terrible job."

He should have investigated more detailed information when Bai Yang crossed Tongtian Mountain.

Bingfeng and Yandi have always been sworn enemies.

I was wondering why things were so calm on your end, and why no one was asking me about his unusual behavior.

So none of you knew this before.

[Protect my personal interests!]

Upon recalling Bai Yang's words, the Lord of Chaos City immediately understood something.

Bai Yang is the lord of the Milky Way!

"What secrets does the Milky Way or Earth hold? What anomalies have you noticed?"

The giant axe shook its head and said:

"I don't know. I once roughly looked back at Earth time, but I didn't find anything."

To truly understand this, I might have to personally travel to Earth.

Even stranger is…

Giant Axe wasn't one to talk in suspense, but Chaos became curious.

"What?"

I don't know how to describe the giant axe:

"After I noticed Bai Yang's unusual behavior, I went back in time to trace his past."

But it failed quickly.

The Lord of Chaos City was shocked: "We failed!?"

You are the strongest being in the universe, unless another strongest being continuously and deliberately disrupts spacetime.

Otherwise, how could I possibly stop you?

Giant Axe shook his disheveled head and said:

I don't understand either.

I can see Bai Yang's normal time flow.

However, every now and then, he would be enveloped and protected by a red light and a golden light.

I just can't get past this obstacle, and I feel that if I dare to act recklessly, it will cause unpredictable trouble.

Each of those two beams of light gave me a feeling of unease.

The Lord of Chaos City remained silent, secretly processing the news about the giant axe.

He knew very well just how powerful the giant axe was, even though it didn't contain any supreme treasures.

But the giant axe has always been the true pillar of the tribe, shouldering many burdens on his own and never complaining to others.

Having received guidance from the Primal Ancestor, he is very low-key, but his strength is absolutely outstanding among the strongest beings in the universe!

He could sense the hidden danger!

The Lord of Chaos City whispered:

"I didn't notice anything unusual about him at all while I was in Chaos City."

"So how should we get along with Bai Yang from now on?"

Giant Axe laughed loudly:

"My intuition tells me that our danger does not come from him personally."

In my opinion, things should be done the way they should be.

Just pretend you don't know anything about it.

The Lord of Chaos sighed, "But I do know now."

"Our personalities are different; I won't be able to get along with him so easily anymore."

Giant Axe stroked his beard and laughed:

"Then you might as well not tell Long Xing, but I believe he won't change his mind."

The Lord of Chaos City nodded wearily, then suddenly pulled up Luo Feng's information, preparing to go back and take a good look at it.

Then he turned and left.

After returning to reality, Bai Yang rested calmly for a while, but still didn't receive any further news.

"It's possible that it will take time for the Chaos City Lord to sort out the accounts and computing power equipment."

It's only early morning, and the distant city of Qiushui should have already discovered the devastation in the port area; it's currently bustling with activity.

With nothing else to do, Bai Yang decided to take another look at the information in his brain about the spoils of war.

They suddenly acquired dozens of demon cultivation techniques.

In his opinion, even the cultivation methods of other races were perfectly acceptable.

"Very rough and primitive moves, completely different from human styles."

These demons are all from very low social strata; their secret techniques are far inferior to those in the "Dragon War Manual."

Although the spacetime clone is not as good as the monster clone, it is still a cultivation manual.

His efficiency would be hundreds or thousands of times greater than that of these demon races, leaving him with absolutely no need to change his cultivation method.

For an entire day, Spencer, the city lord of the demon race, did not disturb him.

Bai Yang ate and drank and studied the laws, and time flew by.

It wasn't until nightfall that a team came looking for him.

Spencer greeted him and once again offered him a large quantity of meat and blood delicacies.

Bai Yang accepted it without hesitation.

Looking up at his enormous body, the city lord of this realm didn't say a word of nonsense, seemingly just paying his respects.

Bai Yang was happy to play dumb; he had plenty of time and there was nothing to rush.

It's common for members of the demon royal family to sleep for hundreds of years during a single cultivation session.

He can stay near the city for several years without any problem.

More than ten days passed in this way, and finally the Lord of Dragons sent him an email saying that everything was ready.

Bai Yang and Xing Shou excitedly connected to the virtual universe and entered an independent combat space.

"Has the Shadow Lord been suspended?"

He was somewhat surprised to hear the introduction from the Lord of Dragons.
