There was no sun or moon in Seven Stars Cave.
I pondered Hua Zhi's words.
Then I thought of the Void Realm. Didn't the Void Realm have neither day nor night?
Could it be that the Doctor was not the Void Realm's true creator? After all, many things in the Void Realm did not seem like something the Doctor could have made.
Or perhaps Guiguzi was the Void Realm's true creator, while the Doctor had merely stumbled upon it.
"Hua Zhi, does the Void Realm exist because Yunmeng Mountain and Seven Stars Cave exist?" I suddenly asked.
Hua Zhi stopped walking and looked at me strangely.
"What is it?" I asked.
"You actually thought of that."
"You said there was no sun or moon in Seven Stars Cave, and the entire Void Realm has no real concept of time either. So I thought that the Void Realm exists because Yunmeng Mountain and Seven Stars Cave exist."
Hua Zhi smiled. "What Void Realm? It is merely some attached lands around Yunmeng Mountain. But your Doctor, ahem, somehow managed to get in and caused so much trouble. That took us by surprise. I originally intended to stop him, but Master said that every drink and every peck is ordained by fate. Perhaps this is not a bad thing. At least he discovered the secret of parallel spacetime himself. Whether that is a blessing or a disaster for you, no one can say."
I narrowed my eyes. "Guiguzi knew about the existence of parallel spacetime long ago? He must have already guessed what parallel spacetime meant, right?"
Hua Zhi's expression changed slightly. "How can you address Master's name so casually?"
I said blandly, "What else should I call him? Besides, what do you think the relationship between you and me is?"
