"Uh... that guy, he's someone who deserves a beating. It was his son who kidnapped Zhou Hanyun and the others, and when I wanted to beat up his son, he wouldn't allow it."

Yang Yan looked at Poseidon's corpse and said coldly.

Jeez, you say you just wanted to beat him up?

You were clearly out to kill him, weren't you!

And of course, if the guy's dad showed up, he wouldn't just let you kill his son.

Well, now you've gone and killed the dad too.

So much for winning people over with virtue, huh?

Everyone around who heard Yang Yan speak couldn't help but criticize silently in their hearts.

"How did you get out?"

Diana looked at Zhuge Wushuang, somewhat incredulously.

"I got out after killing everything inside! It wasn't all that difficult."

Zhuge Wushuang said calmly.

The recent slaughter had given her a release, and her state of mind had calmed down significantly.

"Killed them all? You mean you killed all the monsters inside?"

Diana looked at Zhuge Wushuang in shock, speaking in disbelief.

That place was the Trial Space, where the monsters were practically endless.

And this woman before her said she killed all the monsters inside!

How could that not leave her utterly astounded?

"Yeah! By the time I left, there was nothing moving inside. Otherwise, it's really quite a nice place in there."

"So many things would come out willingly for me to kill. To be honest, it's the first time I've ever killed to my heart's content!"

Zhuge Wushuang said with a smile, seemingly still feeling a bit unsatisfied.

"Oh my gosh! Everyone around you is a monster, for sure."

Diana looked at Yang Yan with a look of resignation.

"Okay, I know you have a way, help me restore this place! Also, those subordinates I had her kill need you to resurrect them."

Diana fixed Yang Yan with a burning gaze and said very seriously.

"Uh... why me?"

Yang Yan pointed at himself, dissatisfied.

"Stop with the nonsense! Don't I know your personality? Hurry up, I still need to go soothe my people. You guys made quite the ruckus this time."

After saying that, Diana didn't give Yang Yan a chance to argue, turning on her magnificently majestic unicorn and leaving.

"Tch, seriously, getting me to clean up the mess like some kind of conscript labor, is there no justice?"

Yang Yan complained as he pulled out an old-looking pocket watch from the Void.

"Can dead people really be resurrected?"

Beside him, Zhou Hanyu asked in confusion.

"It's not that simple! It has to be under specific conditions. And the cost isn't small, either."

"This time we really did go a bit too far, paying this price is warranted."

The one who answered Zhou Hanyu was Red Dust.

As Yang Yan crushed the pocket watch in his hand, a massive Magic Array suddenly covered the sky over Paradise Island.

"Time reversal? As expected of Dark Night Emperor Moonlight!"

Diana stood atop the castle, watching the sky Magic Array and spoke slowly.

As the sky-bound Magic Array descended slowly, the beautiful enforcers who had died at Zhuge Wushuang's hands began to open their eyes.

The wounds on their bodies started to slowly heal.

The unicorns that had died beside them also stood up, neighing joyfully.

The damaged houses and mountains around them also began to slowly revert to their original state.

"Wow, truly spectacular! But after this use, who knows how long it'll be before the Space-Time Pocket Watch can be used again."

Fatty looked at the broken pieces of the pocket watch in Yang Yan's hand, both envious and a little regretful.

"Alright! It's all taken care of, back to vacation. Fatty, hurry up and get the yacht over here."

Yang Yan urged Fatty.

...

Time flies, days and months swiftly pass by.

In the blink of an eye, a week had already passed since the events at Paradise Island. Yang Yan lay on his bed, reflecting on all the recent happenings.

Apart from slaying a god on Paradise Island, nothing else seemed particularly major for now.

On the first day back from Paradise Island, Xia Bing had given Yang Yan a call.

The investigation he requested revealed nothing special, which meant Yang Yan's previous suspicions were wrong.

The Vermilion Bird obtained on Paradise Island posed somewhat of a dilemma for him.

Now, there were already three of the Four Symbols at home, and if Ruyi, that girl, was counted, then they were all united.

"Sigh, it's so annoying!"

Yang Yan sighed and said.

He knew this wasn't some divine plan but rather the machinations of a hidden hand orchestrating everything.

And yet, until now, he still had no clues whatsoever.

"What are you worried about?"

Zhou Hanyun walked into Yang Yan's room, frowning, and asked.

Ever since coming back from Paradise Island, it seemed like Yang Yan and Zhou Hanyun's relationship had become closer.

More accurately, Zhou Hanyun had become more proactive.

Aside from not sleeping together, there were no secrets between them anymore.

"Nothing!" Yang Yan shook his head lightly, smiling as he said, "Just thinking about the things that have happened, it's a little bothersome."

"Then don't overthink it." Zhou Hanyun smiled gently, "Anyway, soldiers will block, water will cover the earth, I believe you'll have a way to handle it. By the way, someone is looking for you."

"Looking for me? Who?"

Yang Yan asked, somewhat curious.

Not many people knew he lived here.

And if they were coming over, they would usually notify him first.

"I don't know him, he's a guy, said you promised him something."

After speaking, Zhou Hanyun left.

Yang Yan furrowed his brow slightly, then followed out.

"So it's you? Here to collect on the fruit from the Tree of Longevity?"

The visitor was the man who had previously provided Yang Yan with information in Myanmar, and he indeed had promised the man a Longevity Fruit.

"Yeah! I could really use it right now."

The man didn't hold back, directly stating his purpose.

"Wait a moment."

Yang Yan said, grasping at the Void, and a red fruit appeared in his hand.

"Here, we're even now."

The man quickly took the fruit, put it in his pocket, then nodded:

"Yeah, we're even."

"Then why aren't you leaving?"

Yang Yan looked at the man, who showed no intention of leaving, and said with a frown.

The man smiled awkwardly but remained silent.

"What kind of host are you?"

To the side, Zhou Hanyun brought out two cups of tea from the kitchen and looked at Yang Yan reproachfully.

"Go on, is there something else?"

Yang Yan smiled wryly, then asked the man.

"Yeah! I have another piece of information, and I'd like to exchange it for more fruits from the Tree of Longevity. This time, I want thirty."

The man said with a smile.

"Thirty, that many? Well, that depends on whether your information is useful to me. Or rather, if I find your information interesting."

Yang Yan said with a smile.

He already had a rather comprehensive intelligence network, and he was well-informed about most events occurring in the Hidden World.

"I believe it won't disappoint you. There's a dragon that's gone missing under Huaxia's East Sea City, isn't there?"

The man said with confidence, seemingly sure of himself.
