"No way, you've really mastered the Moonlight Record?"
The system's complaints reached Li Xingkong's ears.
"This isn't the first time I've brought people here, what are you watching this for?"
Li Xingkong was a little embarrassed and touched his nose.
They went too far.
The world he and the system transmitted back from were from a far, distant past.
So ancient that when Li Xingkong looked at Earth Star, there weren't even any humanoid creatures yet. Dinosaurs roamed everywhere, and the landscape was incredibly primitive. It was so primitive that Li Xingkong had to check several times before he was certain that he had indeed returned to Earth Star in ancient times.
"What should we do then?"
"What else can we do but go back?"
Li Xingkong was speechless.
"What are those two doing here!"
Just as Li Xingkong was about to activate the Moonlight Record again to return to the present, a rather stern reprimand came from a small flying vehicle far away.
"Look, not only have we come to the wrong place, but we've also run into some unpleasant guests."
The system, as usual, made a couple of sarcastic remarks.
"Sigh, what a bad start."
Li Xingkong ignored the small spaceship. He had seen plenty of those things before. After all, the universe had developed for so long, and the Convention had lasted for who knows how long. It was perfectly normal for a civilization to pass by Earth Star.
"I said, since you're already here, aren't you going to leave something behind?"
"Leave what? I also want to write 'I was here,' and then wait for future archaeologists to discover it, right?"
Li Xingkong clearly had no intention of doing anything fancy.
But perhaps Li Xingkong's indifference angered the people on the spaceship, or something else. It flew straight towards Li Xingkong, and then, seemingly within firing range, it fired several cannon shots.
"Oh?"
The system seemed startled by this guy's attack.
"Where did this idiot come from? Seeing that you've already traversed the void with your physical body, you still dare to make a move?"
"Hmm, I feel like I vaguely remember this."
A faint memory seemed to resurface in Li Xingkong's mind.
What did he discover on Venus back then?
When he probed with his Divine Sense, he was attacked by Li Xingkong's long-sealed memories.
Back then, in order to terraform Venus, Li Xingkong did indeed discover the ruins of an ancient civilization on Venus, which seemed to be some kind of Snake-People Race.
Now, upon probing with his Divine Sense, he found that Venus was indeed not the same as when Li Xingkong first saw it.
At this moment, Venus was a scene of ruins, clearly having been destroyed not long ago. Considering the "passing by" spaceship, Li Xingkong connected everything together.
"So, this guy was actually the one who caused the destruction of the previous civilization?"
I glanced at the spaceship; its performance was acceptable, and its equipment was decent—the kind of configuration a qualified third-rate civilization should have.
With a flick of his finger, the naval cannons flying towards Li Xingkong stopped in mid-air.
"Fine, as fellow inhabitants of the Solar System, I'll avenge you."
Furthermore, those ship cannons were directly converted into incredibly violent energy, without the slightest dissipation, directly transforming into several enormous energy beams that engulfed the entire spaceship.
The beam of light dissipated, leaving nothing behind where the spaceship had been.
Even the spaceship itself was vaporized by this high-intensity energy.
"Tsk tsk, these guys, they start acting all high and mighty as soon as they get to a remote place, all that arrogance. Pshaw."
"Alright, alright, they're just a few minor characters. Go back and try again."
As if he had done something insignificant, Li Xingkong once again activated the Moonlight Record. A flash of white light, and he vanished without a trace.
Returning to the current point in time, Li Xingkong precisely calculated the amount of the two people involved and meticulously adjusted the activation time of the Moonlight Record.
"This time there shouldn't be any problems, right?"
The system began to have some doubts about Li Xingkong, fearing that they might be sent to some distant era this time.
"It's all packaged, absolutely no problem."
Li Xingkong a solemn vow, and then the moonlight once again illuminated the entire galaxy, flashing by in an instant.
The next moment, Li Xingkong looked at the familiar Earth Star before him and breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Humanity, a technological society, shows no signs of cultivation; it is still stuck in the era of confrontation between Divine Land and the Eagle Country.
"It's a bit early, but it's pretty close."
Li Xingkong took a few steps forward, probed the area with his Divine Sense, and his expression suddenly became subtle.
This era...
Isn't this the time when I'm about to obtain the system?
"Hmm, this moment seems just right."
Li Xingkong stroked his chin, wanting to see how the system had chosen him.
"Hehe, perfect, perfect, come with me."
While Li Xingkong was still pondering, the system suddenly chuckled, as if it had figured something out, and carried Li Xingkong in a direction outside the galaxy.
What do you want to do?
Li Xingkong was a little confused.
"Hmph... I've discovered that people are actually unable to empathize with their past selves."
The system kept things in suspense.
Then a barrier emanated from its body, obscuring it and Li Xingkong.
"Don't move, don't move, it's coming, it's coming!"
The system seemed to hold its breath, as if waiting for something to arrive.
Li Xingkong was also intrigued by its two inexplicable actions.
The next moment, after the two had concealed their figures, a golden light appeared before Li Xingkong and the system as if it had broken through the barrier of the universe.
"Scanning, pan-technological galaxy, no signs of Spiritual Qi, nascent universe, cosmic will intelligence rating: low..."
"Damn it, why am I so unlucky? This is a universe without any Spiritual Qi! When am I ever going to be able to go back?!"
The golden light emitted a string of complaints, every word of which reached the ears of Li Xingkong and the system.
Li Xingkong almost laughed.
Because this thing is none other than the system around you.
It's just that it's in the past tense.
"Quickly, catch it and take it to Earth Star."
Li Xingkong was still smiling when the system started urging him on.
"What, are we just going to interfere like this? In the end, you chose me anyway, didn't you?"
"Damn it, do you think I got to Earth Star back then? Now I finally understand!"
The system unusually uttered a few profanities.
"Quickly, catch it! I've been there before, it can't escape!"
Li Xingkong was speechless looking at the smug look on the system beside him.
This guy, tsk tsk tsk.
Without making a move, Li Xingkong used his Magic Power to freeze the past tense system that had just arrived in this world.
Seeing that it was like a county magistrate's wife being robbed by bandits, struggling with all its might but still unable to escape from Li Xingkong's grasp, Li Xingkong felt a little embarrassed.
But the system was clearly overjoyed.
"Yes, yes, that's it! Make the enforcement even tighter!"
I'm speechless. What kind of person is this?
