Chapter 6 First Entry into Subspace

"You mean, it's true that the land outside the window is where I was born. But I no longer belong to this world?"

Kong Jiu rubbed his temples, his brows furrowed, trying his best to process what the little girl in front of him had just said.

Li Yingying nodded slightly, her tone tinged with regret, "Although you've arrived in this dimension, you can only exist within this office now."

"Why?" Kong Jiu stared blankly out the window, his eyes revealing an unconcealable sense of loss.

With a flick of her fingertip, a faint blue wisp of light flickered at her fingertip.

She opened the window, extended her fingertips out, and the blue light vanished instantly.

"Your homeland is a world without psychic powers."

Li Yingying withdrew her hand; her once pink and tender fingers were now pale and wrinkled, as if she had aged several years in an instant.

"This office is an anchor point that I spent a lot of effort creating in this dimension."

Kong Jiu gave him a look that seemed to ask, "Why this world?"

She went on to explain, "This world has no spiritual power or energy; it was created by a group of great and passionate mortals who ushered in a golden age. I love this so much."

Kong Jiu nodded; he understood the approval. But then he asked, "Could I give up my psychic powers and return to my homeland?"

Li Yingying shook her head.

"If I'm not mistaken, your original self in this world is already dead, isn't she?"

Kong Jiu was taken aback, then nodded stiffly.

"Think about it, you die and travel to the continent of Amerigo. By chance, you gain the ability to travel through the subspace."

What would happen if someone left this room, lost their psychic powers, and yet the world gained someone who had been brought back from the dead?

paradox.

As Li Yingying spoke, the word "paradox" came to mind for Kong Jiu.

Kong Jiu, who lacked psychic abilities, is dead.

Kong Jiu, who possesses psychic abilities, could not possibly exist in this world.

His very existence in this dimension has become an unsolvable paradox.

Being trapped here now is like a caged bird gazing at its homeland through a window; it can only stare in vain at its native land.

"At least... at least I can make a phone call, call my parents, that should be alright, right?"

Kong Jiu lowered his head, his voice trembling as it was squeezed out of his throat, almost pleading.

"Yes, it will have an impact, but not a significant one."

Li Yingying pouted. "However, if you want to rekindle the grief that has subsided after the passing of your loved ones, but you can never see them again, I don't mind."

Kong Jiu fell silent, speechless.

He stared blankly out the window, his familiar yet unfamiliar homeland blurring in his vision.

Tears welled up in his eyes without him even realizing it, and he was so grief-stricken that he lost the ability to think; his mind was completely blank.

He stood up, staring blankly at the window, as if he wanted to jump out.

"Hey! Don't be so discouraged, young man!"

Seeing this, Li Yingying hurriedly rushed forward and, with her tender body, managed to pull Kong Jiu back to the sofa.

She softened her tone and gently advised, "The subspace has no rules at all. Who knows, maybe you'll become a psionic master in the future and find a way to return to your homeland."

These words were like a lifeline, stopping Kong Jiu's struggle and causing him to slump back into the sofa.

He sat there as if he had lost his soul, his eyes vacant.

Seeing this, Li Yingying skillfully brewed a pot of tea and pushed it in front of the visitor.

"I've seen quite a few transmigrators, and I know a few warp travelers, but I've never met an Eastern fellow countryman like you who is both a transmigrator and can travel through the warp. Tell me your story?"

Kong Jiumu accepted the tea, tried his best to calm himself down, pondered for a moment, and then began to recount his life story.

He recounted the story in great detail, from his birth to his mediocre college entrance exam results, which led his wealthy parents to send him abroad to study.

Then, after the plane crash, he talked at length about the five years he spent stranded in Amerigo.

It's less about telling his own story and more about Kong Jiu, who had been holding back for four or five years, finally finding someone to confide in and pouring out his bitterness.

As he spoke, his eyes reddened and his voice choked with emotion.

But with a sob in her voice, she persisted in speaking, word by word.

The loneliness buried deep within the wanderer is now laid bare in the air.

Li Yingying was very patient, and aside from occasionally asking a question or two about the details, she listened quietly the whole time.

After hearing this, the little girl also sighed.

"Your birthplace has no lunch tax and no student loans with compound interest; it's the best place I've ever found."

"You seem to have been to many worlds. What is a subspace traveler?" Kong Jiu asked murmured.

"Subspace, Void, Spirit Realm, Chaos Sea, these things have different names in each world."

Li Yingying pointed to the dark tunnel and explained to herself, "In my homeland of Amerigo, this ability is called a subspace traveler."

Kong Jiu nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite.

He looked back at the path he had come from, the deep, dark tunnel: "So, this is a subspace tunnel you carved out, an anchor point connecting to another dimension, is that right?"

"I usually call this thing the web channel."

Li Yingying nodded with an expression that said, "This child is teachable."

But she added, "However, only someone who can travel through the warp can trigger the web passage. Otherwise, behind that hidden door is just a secret room behind the antique shop."

"What's in that secret room?" Kong Jiu interjected.

"One of my clones."

Li Yingying answered readily, then raised an eyebrow, "Let's get down to business. What brings you here?"

Upon hearing this, Kong Jiu looked out the window.

I can't go home now.

But at least it showed him a possibility.

"If I cultivate psychic powers and traverse dimensions, perhaps, just one day, I can establish an anchor point near home and see my loved ones again!"

A seed of hope quietly sprouted in his heart.

But now, he has to bring his thoughts back to the present, to the plane where he is still alive.

He took the documents out of his bag.

One by one, documents applying for visas to legally stay in the country were handed to Li Yingying.

"Master Li Yingying, my visa is about to expire. I've heard you're very adept at handling these kinds of protracted government affairs. Could you please help me?"

She took it, glanced at it briefly, put it down, and then looked at Kong Jiu himself.

"Since we are both from the East, our meeting is a matter of fate. I will take this opportunity to teach you a trick."

As she spoke, she stood up and walked around to stand behind Kong Jiu.

Those small, delicate hands gently wrapped around Kong Jiu's neck, and her tender body pressed against the broad back of the 1.9-meter-tall man.

However, Kong Jiu wasn't the kind of scumbag who would be interested in young girls.

Li Yingying whispered in his ear, "You can also enter and exit subspace, so you should understand that the parameters of time and space are chaotic and disordered in that place, right?"

Kong Jiu shook his head and answered honestly, "To be honest, I only acquired this ability today and have not used it yet."

"Oh?" Li Yingying's eyes lit up with interest.

"That's even better. Follow me and see how I keep Amerigo's officials from dragging their feet on these documents in the warp, where there are no time constraints."

Kong Jiu felt a subtle force flowing behind him, as if it were pulling or stretching something.

He felt a little uncomfortable and instinctively wanted to shrug.

"Don't resist, I'm going to take you out of this anchor point and into the warp."

Hearing Li Yingying's warning, Kong Jiu gave up the idea of ​​stretching his muscles.

The next moment, the office scene in my eyes seemed to dissolve and fade away, turning into a pitch-black, hazy, pale purple expanse.

The two of them seemed to be in the starry sky.

Kong Jiu clearly sensed that the little girl behind him had transformed into some unknown entity.

The arms that were wrapped around her back had become long and soft, no longer the slender ones of a child. A soft, indescribable sensation also came from her back, pressed against it.

Kong Jiu felt a heat in his ears and his cheeks flushed slightly.

A languid, mature woman's soft laughter came from behind.

"Young man, are you blushing? You don't really think I'm a little girl, do you?"

Behind him, the petite girl had transformed into a graceful and charming mature woman.

"Welcome to the subspace, a place without the constraints of time."
