"Miss, you're finally awake." Hu Liena came in carrying a set of clean clothes. When she saw Ye Guyi sitting up in bed, she smiled faintly.

"Excuse me... where am I?" Ye Guyi asked, utterly confused.

Hu Liena said nothing, only smiled at her.

Ye Guyi: "? I'm asking you a question. What is this place?"

Hu Liena still didn't answer. She simply set down the clothes, arranged breakfast, and then left.

Ye Guyi was left alone.

The moment the door closed, Ye Guyi frowned. "Are the people here all crazy? Why won't anyone answer when I ask?"

Ye Guyi sprang out of bed, put on the clothes Hu Liena had left for her, and quickly ate some breakfast. At last, her restless heart settled.

"Mom, Dad, I followed our ancestors' guidance and found the treasure trove, but... is this still Douluo Continent? When will I be able to slay all the Evil Soul Masters in the world and avenge you?"

Ye Guyi's parents had been killed by Evil Soul Masters. She had barely escaped with her life, and followed her ancestors' guidance to find the treasure trove.

Who could have guessed that the treasure trove would send her to such a strange place?

Through the window, Ye Guyi gazed out at the vast land ahead and the Spirit Hall disciples bustling in and out of the city. For a while, she sank into thought.

In another room.

"Take your time. Once you've finished eating, I'll take you to meet someone."

"My grandfather?"

"How did you know?" Bibi Dong asked in surprise.

Qin Chuan finished the last mouthful of porridge in his bowl and let out a long breath. "My sister's undercover in Heaven Dou City. Who else could it be but my grandfather?"

"No need. I came without being invited."

Qian Daoliu's voice sounded from outside the door. Bibi Dong and Qin Chuan both turned to look.

When the door opened, a plainly dressed, handsome middle-aged man who looked to be in his thirties or forties walked in, a faint smile on his face.

After receiving Bibi Dong's message last night, Qian Daoliu's first reaction had been disbelief. He had only one granddaughter, so where had this grandson who had suddenly appeared come from?

But the instant Qin Chuan broke through the window and barged into the bath where Bibi Dong was, Qian Daoliu—who was far away at the Angel Holy Temple, guarding the Angel God's divine residence—immediately sensed the Angel God's "response."

Combined with Bibi Dong's account of "what would happen in the future," there was a very good chance it was all true.

"Grandfather." Qin Chuan walked up to Qian Daoliu and bowed.

At first sight of Qin Chuan, Qian Daoliu felt a warmth of kinship rise within him.

Then Qin Chuan beckoned with his left hand, and a radiant golden longsword appeared, carved in the shape of a Six-Winged Angel.

The Angel God's Divine Artifact—the Angel Holy Sword.

At that point, Qian Daoliu finally believed what Bibi Dong had told him.

The child before him really was his grandson from another world.

Qian Daoliu's hands trembled. He didn't dare accept the longsword, for it was the Angel God's Divine Artifact, and as the Angel God's emissary, he had no right to wield it.

"Xiao Xue... she..."

"Big sister died ten thousand years ago. In the era I come from, Spirit Hall has become a historical villain, condemned in the history books and nailed to the pillar of shame."

Qin Chuan ran a hand along the long, slender blade and spoke in a grave tone. "This is the very sword Big Sister used when she became the Angel God. In our era, the Angel God's divine position has already been shattered, but this sword still remains."

Qian Daoliu let out a long sigh. After gazing at the Angel Holy Sword for a while, he gave a rueful smile. "I never imagined things would turn out like this."

The Angel Holy Sword turned into a beam of light and merged back into Qin Chuan's body. Qian Daoliu composed himself, then asked gently, "Since you're here, there's no need to worry. What happened in your world won't happen here."

As Qian Daoliu said this, a flicker of killing intent was unmistakable in his eyes.

"With Grandfather here, I have nothing to worry about. But..."

"But what?" Qian Daoliu asked.

"I want revenge! I want to avenge myself against Tang San from my world. Even if he's already become a lofty God King, I'll still drag him off his throne."

At those words, Bibi Dong and Qian Daoliu were both stunned.

It was hard to believe that a child of only six could make such a bold declaration.

"Good ambition! I agree with you!" Bibi Dong was the first to approve. She wanted revenge against her counterpart in that world, and she also wanted Tang San dead.

After thinking it over, Qian Daoliu nodded quietly. "Tell us your plan. Whatever help you need, just ask."

Qin Chuan, Bibi Dong, and Qian Daoliu took their seats. Only the three of them remained in the room.

Qian Daoliu cut off all communication with the outside world. No one would hear a word of their conversation.

Qin Chuan said, "Our greatest enemy is Tang San. He has Twin Martial Souls: the Clear Sky Hammer and Blue Silver Grass. He was born with Innate Full Soul Power. His father is Tang Hao, and he currently lives in Holy Soul Village, near the border between the two great empires."

"No wonder we couldn't find any trace of Tang Hao back then. Who would've thought he was hiding like a rat in the narrow strip between the two empires?" Qian Daoliu said quietly, narrowing his eyes.

"According to the current timeline, Tang San won't ascend to godhood for another nineteen years. He'll also study at Notting Junior Soul Master Academy in Notting City and become Yu Xiaogang's disciple."

After he finished speaking, Qin Chuan cast a subtle glance at Bibi Dong, especially when he mentioned the name "Yu Xiaogang."

Just as expected, Bibi Dong's gaze flickered, her eyes clouding with complicated emotions.

Then Qin Chuan continued, "I was able to travel to this world thanks to the Angel Holy Sword and the Rakshasa Demon Scythe. I can return to my own world whenever I want. But to come back here again, I'll need to kill everyone connected to Shrek Academy and gather the energy needed to travel. Only then will I be able to return."

"Killing people closely connected to Shrek Academy will also work. As Tang San's teacher, Yu Xiaogang was his guide on the path of cultivation. If I kill him, I'll be able to travel between the two worlds several times in a short period and prepare for our counterattack in my world."

At the suggestion of taking Yu Xiaogang down first, Bibi Dong hesitated. Yu Xiaogang had once been her lover, and though they hadn't been in touch for many years, he still held a place in her heart.

Qin Chuan saw her hesitation at a glance, so he said, "Yu Xiaogang is all reputation and no substance. He has no real ability. At fifty, he still hadn't broken through level thirty. What's so good about someone like that?"

Bibi Dong didn't argue. It was true.

"Besides, his so-called Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul are common knowledge among high-level Soul Masters. He collected them as if they were precious treasures, even though some of them had already been documented and kept by Spirit Hall. He's a coward who runs away whenever he faces a problem, and he spent more than ten years holed up in a little city. What's so worthwhile about someone like that?"

"Mom, you don't want to repeat the same mistakes, do you?"
