“Leave?”
Loong Chen's words left Jing Yan in a state of shock.
“Why are you leaving? Have we done something wrong?” Jing Yan inquired hastily.
Her curiosity compelled her to ask swiftly.
She couldn't quite fathom it, but she always felt a reluctance to part ways with Loong Chen.
“No, it's nothing to do with you. I have matters to attend to,” Loong Chen replied.
“This is something I must do.”
Determination gleamed in Loong Chen's eyes. He surmised that altering history was futile; saving Dugu Lengyue by changing the past was an impossibility.
Yet, he refused to yield. He resolved to persevere until the final moment.
Initially inclined to dissuade him, Jing Yan refrained upon witnessing the unwavering resolve in Loong Chen's gaze.
“I respect your decision, but won't you bid farewell to Loong Ming?”
“No, please convey my message,” Loong Chen declined, shaking his head. He foresaw Loong Ming's inevitable attempt to dissuade him, which would only complicate matters.
Having committed to departure, he deemed decisiveness imperative.
Since he had chosen to depart, he had to do so resolutely.
“Alright, I will tell him.”
Jing Yan acknowledged Loong Chen's statement with a solemn nod, showcasing her sharp intellect.
Casting a deep glance at Jing Yan, Loong Chen departed.
Initially, he made his way back to his residence, the dwelling provided by Dongfang Hong. Hua Yuxin, Hua Yafei, and Jia Jian resided there.
“Mr. Chen, wherever you venture, we shall accompany you.”
Upon learning of Loong Chen's departure, the trio expressed their desire to follow him.
Loong Chen smiled wryly. After a brief moment of hesitation, he decided to confide in them his secret.
Unlike with Loong Ming and Jing Yan, to whom he offered no explanation and simply departed, the situation with Hua Yuxin and Hua Yafei was different. Having become his partners, he felt a responsibility toward them.
“I understand this may be difficult for you to accept, but it is the truth.”
“No, we trust you.”
Hua Yuxin spoke earnestly.
“In fact, we had already suspected that you possess an extraordinary background. Your prowess and enigmatic nature are undeniable.”
“You seem entirely unlike the inhabitants of this world.”
Loong Chen was mildly taken aback. He had somewhat underestimated the astuteness of this young woman.
However, he sensed it wasn't just them. Loong Ming, Jing Yan, Dongfang Hong, and the rest likely harbored similar suspicions.
Yet, it was beyond their imagination to speculate that Loong Chen hailed from the future.
“I originate from 300 years prior. In a bid to rescue the woman I cherish, I inadvertently traversed to this era.”
Loong Chen divulged everything without reservation.
Upon learning of Loong Chen's romantic attachment, a fleeting sorrow crossed their faces.
Swiftly, they concealed their emotions.
“Mr. Chen, can we journey back with you?”
Jia Jian queried, but Loong Chen shook his head.
Aside from the fact that he couldn't transport others with him, even if he could, their physical and mental fortitude wouldn't withstand the rigors of temporal and spatial travel.
Those lacking comprehension of temporal exceptional talents would disintegrate if forcibly dragged into the temporal tunnel.
Their very existence would be obliterated, leaving no trace behind.
“Then, will we never meet again?”
Hua Yuxin's eyes welled with tears, turning red.
Over these past two days of interaction, the bond between Hua Yuxin and Loong Chen had deepened significantly.
“No, there is still a chance.”
Loong Chen shook his head and said.
“I can assure you that with increased strength, your lifespan will also extend. Living for three hundred years is not an impossibility.”
“All of you will adhere to Loong Ming's lead. Perhaps, after three hundred years, we may have the opportunity to reunite.”
Loong Ming lived for three hundred years, as did Loong Ling. She even maintained the appearance of a woman in her twenties.
This indicated that she would inevitably encounter a stroke of luck in the coming years and acquire the Art of Youth Preservation.
If Hua Yuxin and the others followed Loong Ming and Loong Ling, there might be a chance for them to reunite after three hundred years.
“Mr. Chen, I will diligently cultivate. Additionally, I'll take good care of my two sister-in-laws,” Jia Jian stated earnestly. Loong Chen patted his shoulder approvingly.
Loong Chen nodded as Jia Jian spoke, offering a comforting pat on his shoulder.
He still trusted Jia Jian very much.
“Chen Loong, this is for you.”
From her pocket, Hua Yuxin suddenly retrieved a jade pendant and handed it to Loong Chen.
“This is a precious heirloom of my family. I entrust it to you for safekeeping. Remember, in three hundred years, you must return it to me.”
Accepting the jade pendant, Loong Chen delicately snapped it in two.
Securing one half in his pocket, he returned the other portion to Hua Yuxin.
“In three centuries' time, we shall meet again and recognize one another.”
“Chen Loong is merely a pseudonym. My true name is Loong Chen.”
“May we cross paths once more in three hundred years!”
“Loong Chen…”
Hua Yuxin softly uttered his name, but when she looked up again, Loong Chen had vanished.
Frantically, Hua Yuxin rushed to the window, but Loong Chen was nowhere in sight.
Her tears finally streamed down uncontrollably.
“I will definitely wait for you.”
Holding the half jade pendant tightly, Hua Yuxin's gaze brimmed with resolve.
Employing Space Teleportation, Loong Chen materialized in Binhai, relishing the opportunity to wield the Law of Space once more.
“It's time for my departure.”
Loong Chen exhaled deeply, casting aside any lingering reluctance in his heart.
“Utilizing the Ninth Grade time extraordinary talent to traverse time and space proves excessively challenging for me.”
Loong Chen mused to himself.
Fortunately, the myriad empirical values acquired from slaying the mutated beasts and Dragon Blood General within the Dragon God's trial ground were adequate for advancing the time extraordinary talent.
“Expending 6.4 million empirical values to elevate the time extraordinary talent to Level 10.”
“Detection of the time extraordinary talent reaching its pinnacle level, triggering automatic progression to the Law of Time.”
Upon hearing the system notification, Loong Chen's eyes gleamed with anticipation.
Indeed, the time extraordinary talent, upon reaching Level 10, seamlessly transitioned to the realm of law.
At this juncture, a mysterious Concept spontaneously crystallized in Loong Chen's mind, enhancing his comprehension of time significantly.
“As anticipated, the immutable nature of history and the inscrutability of the future are fundamental aspects of this reality.”
Upon grasping the Law of Time, Loong Chen finally affirmed that history was immutable.
While history could be observed, its course could not be altered, for it was already past.
Conversely, the future eluded observation but remained open to alteration, as it had yet to unfold.
Such were the inherent laws of the Heavenly Axiom.
Even with an understanding of the Law of Time, he remained subject to the world's dictates.
Unless he possessed the strength to challenge divinity itself, he would remain bound by celestial will.
“If history cannot be changed, then I shall shape the future.”
“Should the future prove unyielding, then I shall transform this world.”
“Regardless, Lengyue must endure.”
A frenzied glint flashed in Loong Chen's eyes as he lifted his head and bellowed.
At that moment, the sky underwent a dramatic shift in color.
