Cao Yuan was startled and somewhat frightened when he saw the gray-robed figure that had suddenly appeared before him.

"Who...who are you?"

The man in the gray robe didn't answer Cao Yuan's question. Instead, like an emotionless machine, he began to speak slowly:

"When you were three years old, you accidentally swallowed soap. It was your dad who carried you for thirty miles through the mountains to the clinic in town and saved your life."

“When you were five years old, you climbed a tree to steal birds’ nests and accidentally fell from the tree. That’s when you got the scar on your forehead.”

"When you were six, you stole money from home to buy candy for Niu Xiaohua. After your parents found out, you experienced the power of a doubles beating for the first time..."

The gray-robed figure, like an emotionless repeating machine, silently recounted Cao Yuan's past, even knowing some details better than Cao Yuan himself...

A nameless fear rose in Cao Yuan's heart, and he staggered back, "You...you...who exactly are you?!"

The man in the gray robe said coldly, "Who I am is not important. What is important is that if you pick up this wood-chopping knife that will change your fate today, everything will be irreversible."

"Everything that just flashed through your mind was your real experience."

"I'm giving you a chance to change your fate, Cao Yuan. It's up to you whether you want to pick up this wood-chopping knife."

Cao Yuan looked at the rusty woodcutter's knife on the ground as if it were a demon, and retreated repeatedly.

"Don't...don't..."

"I don't want to become that kind of monster!"

"I'm not a monster! I'm not a monster!!"

"No, I'm not!!"

Cao Yuan's eyes were filled with extreme fear. He didn't even have the courage to look at it again and ran home in a panic!

Cao Yuan's family.

Cao Yuan's parents returned home and inspected the cooking pots and stoves.

Seeing that there was nothing in the pot, Cao Yuan's mother said angrily, "This child went out to play all day today and didn't even cook. I'll teach him a lesson!"

Cao Yuan's father chuckled and said, "He probably forgot because he was tired from playing. Let me look for him and see where he went."

"I'm not a monster, I'm not a monster..."

In the corner of Cao Yuan's room, a figure hugged himself and kept muttering to himself, hiding in the shadows.

Cao Yuan's father followed the sound and slowly pushed open the door to the room.

"Yuan'er, did you play too much again today and forget to cook? Did you make your mother angry again? Come over here and cook for her..."

Holy crap!

Cao Yuan's father approached the corner and was startled. He looked at the figure in the corner and demanded, "Who are you?!"

Chapter 991 Above the Long River

Cao Yuan's father was startled when he saw the guy who looked to be in his twenties and exuded a menacing aura curled up in the corner.

The key thing is that he kept muttering something about being a monster, which made him seem very strange...

Cao Yuan's father turned to leave, but suddenly remembered something and mustered his courage to ask, "Where...where did you take my son?"

Cao Yuan, tormented by his inner demons, showed absolutely no reaction to any sounds from the outside world.

The Key to the Gate locked the young Cao Yuan of this period within the body of Cao Yuan, who was swept up by the torrent of fate.

Unseen by Cao Yuan's father, a figure in a gray robe stared coldly at Cao Yuan, who was huddled in the corner.

Shackles of fate?

Let's see who is truly trapped by the shackles of fate this time...

……

A small fishing village.

Jiang Er, dressed in a white dress, ran barefoot on the beach, running amidst the surging waves, waving seashells she had just collected.

An Qingyu rolled up her trousers and was preparing a romantic candlelight dinner for Jiang Er on the beach.

"Qingyu, guess what I found?"

Jiang Er put her hands behind her back, leaned forward slightly, and winked playfully at An Qingyu.

The sea breeze rustled through Jiang Er's hair, and her bright eyes were more beautiful than the stars.

An Qingyu said with a smile, "I guess they are two identical seashells."

Jiang Er chuckled and shook her head. "Hehe, even the smartest brain can make mistakes. It's not the seashell, it's..."

"Wild Ring!"

Jiang Er smiled slightly, extended her hand to An Qingyu, revealing a pair of silver rings in her palm.

"Put it on for me," Jiang Er said with a smile.

"it is good."

An Qingyu picked up one of the women's rings and put it on Jiang Er's ring finger.

Suddenly, a sea breeze blew by, and only the sound of the ring falling to the ground could be heard. An Qingyu's figure disappeared.

Between heaven and earth, the winds and clouds can change in an instant!

Countless wisps of gray mist surged in from all directions, engulfing everything. Even the sound of the surrounding waves was drowned out by the gray mist, leaving only silence!

Jiang Er clutched the remaining ring and shouted anxiously.

"Qingyu!"

"Qingyu!!"

"An Qingyu!!!"

No matter how Jiang Er shouted, the surrounding gray fog was like the most solid spatial barrier in this world, isolating everything!

Jiang Er gripped the ring in her hand, preparing to use spatial teleportation to escape from here, and a white spatial ripple spread out from her body.

hum! ! !

The power of spatial laws had just spread from Jiang Er's body when it was immediately imprisoned by a powerful force.

Jiang Er sensed the powerful spatial confinement within the gray mist and frowned.

Her psychic abilities have stopped working...

"Come out. Although my psychic field is sealed, I can still sense your presence."

"Don't expect to trap me in this illusory dream space."

Jiang Er stared coldly into the depths of the gray fog.

A figure in a gray robe slowly emerged from the gray mist, radiating a terrifying spatial law power that could devour everything.

“Hello, Miss Jiang Er. I am Tavel At Umr, a Gate Key Attendant existing in all dimensions.”

Jiang Er recalled that there was also a time god who called himself a "servant" beside An Qingyu back then, named Aphrodite.

The Tavel before me is probably a guardian of various dimensions, just like that one.

"Tell me, where is this?" Jiang Er asked coldly.

Tavel replied earnestly, "This is the ash layer."

"Gray layer..."

Jiang Er frowned. No wonder her spiritual field was completely sealed off; this place was already a gap between two dimensions.

“Miss Jiang Er, listen to my advice, don’t go anywhere, otherwise, all the people you love will leave you one by one…”

Tavel looked at Jiang Er and said seriously.

Jiang Er's eyes turned cold. "Are you threatening me?"

"It's not a threat, it's a piece of advice."

“If you insist on leaving, there will be no more An Qingyu in this world, only Yog Sothos. If you don’t believe me, you can try.”

Tavel's face showed neither sadness nor joy, revealing no emotion whatsoever.

Jiang Er fell into deep thought, unsure of what to do...

It's hard to tell whether his words are true or false...

If we leave from here, An Qingyu will disappear, and everyone else will disappear...

what do I do……

……

On the river of time.

Two Anqing fish are facing off across the river of time.

One of them was expressionless, his eyes filled with a deathly coldness.

The one who stands opposite him across the river of time is gentle and refined, and the tenderness in his eyes cannot be eroded by the years.

You can't win.

The Key to the Gate looked at An Qingyu and said coldly, "I will soon completely annihilate your soul, making this vessel of yours disappear from all time and space."

An Qingyu adjusted her glasses and said seriously, "Key to the Gate, I have found a way to deal with you."

"Tearing apart dimensional space..."

"Outrunning the river of time..."

"Break free from the shackles of fate..."

An Qingyu said with a smile, "Everything sounds like a fantasy, but I believe our Nightfall Squad can do it."

The Key to the Gate said coldly, "This kind of blind confidence is comparable to that arrogant guy Chaos."

"Unfortunately, I am not the kind of Chaos who enjoys having fun. I have already sealed off all your escape routes in all of time and space."

"Even that mortal sword immortal who can sever all laws poses little threat to me."
