Three days had passed since the great battle.
Ruyi Yuanjun had left after killing the Mountain Ghosts and Leng Quan, without speaking much with Jiang Qiao. Before leaving, however, she had taken the corrupted heart with her.
Jiang Qiao had originally wanted to tell her about the future.
For instance, how she would be trapped in the deepest reaches of the Nether Sea.
But just as the words reached his lips,
she smiled, shook her head slightly, and said it did not matter.
And so,
he said no more.
The realm of Half-Gods was terrifying, and deeply strange. Perhaps his entering the River of History and summoning Ruyi Yuanjun had, in itself, already exerted some immense influence on her future.
After all, she controlled the rules of fate.
The moment she first descended, she had identified Jiang Qiao as the "fated person."
And it seemed
that regarding certain events in the future,
she had already found some sort of answer when she faced Jiang Qiao.
"I hope everything goes smoothly for her."
Jiang Qiao sighed.
He could remain in the River of History for ten days at most, and half that time had already passed.
With five days left,
he had to return to Yang City.
After all, he did not know whether he could return to the Future World from here. More importantly, he still had some ideas he had yet to put into action in the supernatural world.
"That Half-God was so powerful. How did you meet her?"
Yang Ling asked curiously.
Over these three days,
both Yang Ling and Jiang Qiao had been recovering. Yang Ling had injured his body by forcing himself to use a taboo weapon, while Jiang Qiao's mental power had been damaged by the aftershocks of demigod-class supernatural fluctuations.
Damn it!
