Infinite Possibilities

The next day.

Zhang Ping woke up in his bedroom at home.

A bird landed in the tree outside his window and began chirping away.

I really made it back?

Zhang Ping patted his cheeks, barely able to believe it.

He had thought Mysterious Sewer was a useless ability. Who could have guessed it could take him across Parallel Worlds?

"Was the me in that world dead?" Zhang Shouzhong asked curiously.

Zhang Ping shook his head. "I don't know.
