110: Chapter 110 Stop it all by any means necessary!

It seemed all the puzzles had been solved.

Xia Qing sat to the side, and although he was listening in a daze, he managed to grasp the key points.

"Then... what's the deal with those ferocious beasts that have been suddenly appearing through rifts everywhere lately and directly attacking cities?"

Xia Qing asked,

"Brother Ye and I have been following the news since we came out. I heard that incidents of ferocious beasts dropping from the sky and injuring people have occurred in many safe zones. This... couldn't be something you caused too, right?"

Hearing Black-Robed Shen Ye explain so much, Xia Qing felt there was a high probability that this guy had caused some mishaps while traveling through time and space.

Black-Robed Shen Ye nodded, then shook his head again.

"I'm not too clear on the specific details."

"However, looking at it, it seems very likely because of you—"

He pointed at Shen Ye.

"Because of the side effects brought about by your use of a Forbidden Curse to forcibly tear space apart."

"Although that Forbidden Curse opened a passage for me to come through, it also made the spatial barriers of this spacetime extremely unstable."

"This caused ferocious beasts from different points in time at the same geographical location to undergo random spacetime displacement, getting sucked into the current spacetime."

Shen Ye's heart sank.

So, those ferocious beasts attacking civilians outside were also a sin he had caused?

"Then is there any way to solve this problem?"

Shen Ye asked urgently.

Black-Robed Shen Ye shook his head.

"I'm not sure about that. Spatial rifts need time to heal themselves, or... they need a more powerful force to mend them."

Shen Ye gritted his teeth and stood up.

"Then you went through all that trouble to find me, even going as far as to ruin one of my eyes, surely not just to tell me these old stories?"

"Since you know the source, and since you came back from the future, you must have a way to end all this, right?"

Black-Robed Shen Ye looked at the agitated Shen Ye.

"I wouldn't dare say I have a method, only that I have an idea."

"Ever since I discovered the source of the ferocious beasts' origin, I have been thinking every moment about how to make them disappear completely, how to break this damned cycle of fate."

"Unfortunately, I can't think of a perfect way. I can't kill all the beasts that already exist."

"But..."

Black-Robed Shen Ye's tone shifted, and his gaze became sharp.

"I have a suspicion in my heart."

"Since the ferocious beasts were created by Ye Fei, and Ye Fei's creation ability was granted and strengthened by her class core card..."

"If she didn't have that class core card... or rather, if we changed her trajectory before she had the chance to cause a great disaster..."

"Then would all of this not have happened?"

"So, Shen Ye."

Black-Robed Shen Ye stood up and looked solemnly at his younger self.

"I hope you find the current Ye Fei. Or... find my captain from back then."

"Use any means necessary to stop all this! Prevent Ye Fei from awakening that creation ability, or guide her onto another path!"

Xia Qing listened from the side, feeling anxious.

"Then why don't you go yourself? With your current strength, wouldn't it be enough to just find that Ye Fei and end it all?"

Hearing this, Black-Robed Shen Ye gave a bitter smile.

He didn't speak, but instead slowly reached out his hand, pointing straight at Xia Qing's chest.

Xia Qing was startled and instinctively tried to block with the magic staff in his hand.

However, a terrifying scene unfolded.

Black-Robed Shen Ye's hand actually met no resistance.

It passed directly through Xia Qing's magic staff, through his chest cavity, and emerged from his back!

There was no blood, no pain.

It was as if a beam of light had passed through the air.

Xia Qing looked at the hand stuck in his chest, his whole body freezing up.

"You... you're transparent?! You're not a physical object?!"

Shen Ye's pupils also shrank.

Black-Robed Shen Ye slowly withdrew his hand, his body beginning to become somewhat illusory.

"I told you, even after advancing, my control over time and space is still insufficient."

"The me you see now is just a spiritual projection that has crossed thirty years. My true body is still struggling within the spacetime turbulence of 100 years ago."

"I cannot interfere with any matter in this world."

"So... some things can only be done by yourselves."

Shen Ye looked at this version of himself from thirty years in the future and gritted his teeth.

"Fine! I promise you!"

Shen Ye clenched his fists, fire burning in his single eye.

"Since this mess was caused by you, or rather, by me, I will definitely clean it up!"

"But if you want me to find someone, you have to give me some information at least."

"The Dragon Kingdom is so big, there are probably eight or ten thousand people named Ye Fei. And that captain, who is he?"

Black-Robed Shen Ye looked at Shen Ye, a mysterious smile curling at the corner of his mouth.

"My captain, the man who can create miracles... his name is Chen Xi."

"And the Lord of Myriad Spirits, Ye Fei."

"They are the same age as you, and both are from Jiang City."

"If there are no accidents... they should both be in Jiang City right now."

Upon hearing this,

Shen Ye and Xia Qing stood blankly on the spot, looking at each other.

"Same age... both from Jiang City... Chen Xi... Ye Fei..."

Xia Qing swallowed hard, his voice trembling.

"Freshman Professionals... in the same year as us?"

Shen Ye took a deep breath and looked up toward the direction of Jiang City, his gaze complex to the extreme.

"Jiang University... it looks like we need to head back."

...

Jiang University, Trial Grounds.

"Captain Chen!!"

A slightly anxious shout abruptly pulled Chen Xi's thoughts back to reality.

Chen Xi's body jolted, and he withdrew his gaze from the departing back of that red-haired girl, turning to look at Li Murou beside him.

At this moment, Li Murou was maintaining the control effect of Sorrowful Elegy while looking at him worriedly, her forehead covered in fine beads of sweat.

"Whew..."

Chen Xi took a deep breath.

"I'm fine."

He responded in a low voice, but his eyes involuntarily swept toward the direction where the red-haired girl had disappeared again, murmuring to himself in his heart:

"Ye Fei... a seemingly ordinary Beast Tamer can actually make brainless, bloodthirsty wild beasts stop their attacks or even flee in panic just with a single shout?"

"This is practically... a walking ferocious beast repeller."

However, the current situation was still grim.

Although that red-haired girl had forced back two lizards,

hundreds of Flame Lizards were still rampaging across the Trial Grounds, and the students' defensive line was already in a precarious state.

Now was clearly not a good time to delve into Ye Fei's secrets.

"Save people first! Xiao Xiao, the one on the left!"

Chen Xi was just about to command the counterattack.

Just then—

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

In the pitch-black night sky, several dazzling streaks of light arrived in an instant, accompanied by the ear-piercing sound of breaking air.

Before that terrifying pressure even landed, it caused the rampaging Flame Lizards in the field to instinctively freeze in their tracks.

Li Murou looked up at the sky and cried out in pleasant surprise:

"The teachers are here!"
