Atop a tall bamboo pole.
A large gray flag with tassels fluttered and snapped in the wind.
The character "Ascend" was written on it.
The flag stood at the very center of the village beside the stage.
Four-Dimensional Village stood one dimension above reality, but it was not devoid of worldly life. The villagers here also had pursuits they devoted their entire lives to.
Unlike the fame and profit of reality.
They had experienced the powers of higher dimensions and witnessed eras far beyond the trajectory of their own lives.
Because of that, every one of them harbored regret and restraint in their hearts.
So many dazzling worlds were like moons reflected in water—visible, yet untouchable.
Therefore.
Everyone wanted to ascend to the fifth dimension.
The villagers stood layer upon layer before the stage, their eyes fixed determinedly on the great flag waving in the wind.
Village Chief Gu Beijiang stood alone on the stage, surveying the surrounding world.
No one noticed his faintly furrowed brow.
The conference was about to begin. Why was there still no sign of his father?
If he did not come, the conference could not proceed!
In the distance.
Liu Di watched quietly.
At a rough glance, there were no fewer than three thousand Four-Dimensional Village residents gathered ahead.
When he had explored the village before, one could walk a hundred paces without seeing a single person. Everywhere had been silent and still.
Yet he had never expected Four-Dimensional Village to be so populous!
Liu Di then straightened his white shirt, lowered his rolled-up sleeves, and carefully fastened the buttons at his cuffs.
"Since it's my first time meeting the girl's father, it's only natural to be a little nervous."
"I really want to kill a few Mo Yu to ease my anxiety."
Liu Di
