"I’ve already dispelled your Heart Demon, consider it a favor from ."
As the whole world was being cleansed by the blue fla, the Scavenging Elder spoke slowly:
"I can still do two more favors for you, consider it... compensation for altering your fate without permission."
Li Yang pondered for a while and said:
"I want a cigarette."
The Scavenging Elder looked at Li Yang in surprise.
He thought Li Yang would ask for sothing more significant.
But just a cigarette?
The Scavenging Elder waved his hand casually, and a cigarette appeared in Li Yang’s hand:
"Normally, a person can have four Talents. It just so happens that one of my Talents allows to do whatever I want within the Spiritual World.
So, what else do you need?"
Li Yang placed the cigarette in his mouth and raised an eyebrow:
"A cigarette but no fla?"
Li Yang wouldn’t casually ask for things from the Scavenging Elder.
He didn’t know much about the Scavenging Elder, who knew if the Scavenger Elder was up to sothing?
People, if you don’t want to be deceived, don’t be too greedy.
This was sothing learned from those capitalist demons in the Demon Club.
The Scavenging Elder walked in front of Li Yang, a wisp of blue fla appeared on his fingertips:
"It’s my first ti lighting a cigarette for soone."
Li Yang leaned over, lit the cigarette, took a puff of the familiar nicotine, and said:
"What a coincidence, it’s also the first ti soone lit a cigarette for ."
The Scavenging Elder chuckled and gave Li Yang a aningful look:
"You, don’t be too weighed down by thoughts.
If you think too much, it’s easy to nurture a Heart Demon."
The Scavenging Elder probably guessed why Li Yang didn’t want his things.
Too cautious, too suspicious.
Li Yang gave a non-committal smile.
His mind was indeed quite heavy.
After all, anyone who suddenly established the Demon Club within a few years wouldn’t have a light heart.
Moreover, to suddenly shift from a young corporate slave to the overlord of the Spiritual Era, such a rapid transformation of identity would be sharp and piercing even if one were carefree.
"Since you don’t want my stuff, you can ask three questions.
I don’t have much ti, you need to hurry."
The Scavenging Elder toyed with a blue lotus fla as he spoke slowly.
Li Yang dislikes nonsense, and even more dislikes yelling about the Scavenging Elder’s magic like so fool, or questioning why the Scavenging Elder chose him.
Li Yang spoke up:
"Who exactly are you? Who are the Wandering Ones?"
Li Yang fired two questions in quick succession.
"I can tell a story that covers your questions."
The Scavenging Elder’s eyes showed reminiscence:
"I am ng Xing, who founded the Hunter Guild in a miserable era.
I once led many Extraordinaries to annihilate the Celestial Race in Changbai Mountain, driving the Lord of the Celestial Race back to its world."
The Scavenging Elder spoke in a flat tone, not deliberately emphasizing his past glory, lightly introducing his identity.
However, his first sentence already showed that he had great confidence in himself.
For when ordinary people introduce themselves, they would say my na is so-and-so, rather than I am so-and-so.
"I am ng Xing," this sentence already contains a lot of aning.
ng Xing seems to be a benchmark of an era.
A cup of coffee appeared in the Scavenging Elder’s hand. He traced the edge of the cup and said deeply:
"The Lord of the Celestial Race was very powerful, and to defeat it, I devoured the Spiritual Qi of the entire world.
In doing so, I also cut off everyone’s path to cultivate Spiritual Power, completely ending the Spiritual Qi era.
I used to watch over the world where the Lord of the Celestial Race resided constantly.
Through observation, I found that the one I had cursed beca stronger and could strike back at Blue Star at any ti.
But at that ti, Blue Star had no Extrahuman, and because of centuries of war, technological power had waned.
The next ti facing the Lord of the Celestial Race, humans would only be enslaved and devoured."
The Scavenging Elder took a sip of coffee, shook his head, and said:
"If this world had two Extrahuman like , maybe they could truly defeat it.
If during the Lord of the Celestial Race’s weakest ti, I could have attacked him, perhaps I could have defeated it.
Sadly, in my era, the only Extrahuman of my rank was .
The weakest ti for the Lord of the Celestial Race was when it first invaded Blue Star, and at that ti I had not yet been born."
The Scavenging Elder’s eyes suddenly shot out sparks:
"So, I used so thods to reset ti and space!
I made ti go backward, letting the world return to before the Spiritual Energy Revival."
Li Yang’s fingers, holding the cigarette, paused.
In his heart, he thought: So it was true!
The Wandering Ones and this Scavenging Elder were indeed from the future!
Li Yang had originally thought the Scavenging Elder had traveled to the past, but he didn’t expect it to be the entire world’s ti traveling backward.
The Scavenging Elder said:
"The magic of Ti Travel is too heavy, the cost of sacrifice too great, I can only use it once."
The Scavenging Elder looked at Li Yang:
"So people who left deep marks in our era are unaffected by that spell, so they still have their mories and power.
You could understand it as bringing a few people back to this era.
Those people are what you called the Wandering Ones.
The number of Wandering Ones isn’t many, and those who still retain mories or strength of that era are even fewer.
Actually, there are still so Wandering Ones in this world, who have lost mory and power.
They believe they’re just native to this world."
Li Yang took a puff of the cigarette:
"The questions I’m going to ask next about the Wandering Ones shouldn’t count as one of the three questions you can answer, right?"
The Scavenging Elder smiled bitterly:
"Then you’d better hurry up, not much ti left, your Heart Demon World is about to completely disappear.
My true self is very busy, no ti to co here just to deal with you.
If it weren’t for the Heart Demon World allowing us this communication, I wouldn’t have shown up either."
Li Yang asked:
"How many are there like Su Manman, who lost their power and mory but only retained their skills?"
The Scavenging Elder said:
"Just her, in my era, Su Manman’s hacking skills had a far greater role than her actual cultivation.
If you want to ask more about the Wandering Ones, you could take a trip to the Lost City under the Pacific Ocean.
The Lost City has all the answers regarding the Wandering Ones.
Oh, I suggest reaching Tier Seven before you go.
Tie Lin despises people like you and too much; if your cultivation isn’t enough, he will leave you at the bottom of the sea."
Li Yang nodded, basically digesting the Scavenging Elder’s words.
After finishing the last puff of the cigarette, he asked:
"Final question, when will the Celestial Race invade?"
The Scavenging Elder said:
"People from our era don’t know exactly when the Celestial Race invaded Blue Star either.
But I think it will be soon. You should quickly improve your cultivation and prepare for war as soon as possible."
After finishing, the Scavenging Elder threw the blue lotus fla on the ground.
At his feet, blue flas began to burn, slowly climbing on his body, engulfing the Scavenging Elder.
Li Yang quietly watched the Scavenging Elder, locking gazes.
The Scavenging Elder’s eyes were complex; Li Yang couldn’t see through what the Scavenging Elder was thinking.
The Scavenging Elder said:
"I am your final Heart Demon.
From now on, as long as you don’t recklessly devour ’talents’, you will have no more Heart Demons.
By the way, I left a gift for you."
The next mont, the entire world began to shatter.
