Lin Fan wasn’t surprised to see her.

He had already put together what had happened based on the clues that he had discovered and had already guessed that this was the case.

That entire life that he experienced, it was the trial that he had been taking.

Lin Fan just calmly looked at her for a bit before asking, “How long has it been?”

The woman in blue had the same smile as she said, “Thirty minutes.”

This time, Lin Fan couldn’t help being surprised.

He had spent over a hundred years in that other world, but only thirty minutes had passed in this world.

How had they done it?

After thinking for a bit, Lin Fan asked, “Was that an Illusion Realm?”

The woman in the blue dress revealed a smile that was almost imperceptible, but she didn’t answer this question. Instead she said, “You have failed this trial, but you will be allowed a second attempt.”

Lin Fan once again wasn’t surprised by this since this was what he had already figured out.

He had guessed that this first time was just to tell him the events that had unraveled, so it was best if he followed the path that he had been given to the end. Only then would he truly understand what had happened in this world and be able to give them the answer that they were looking for.

Because he had followed the path, he already had an idea of what he needed to do.

So Lin Fan just nodded before asking, “Was that the past? Or was it an alternate timeline?”

The woman in the blue dress shook her head this time and said, “This is a story from a long time ago, that is all you need to know.” Then after another sigh, she suddenly said, “I wonder if you’ll be able to show us an ending that we’ve never thought of before.”

Then after a moment of silence, she said, “Are you ready to take the trial again?”

Lin Fan said, “Wait, before that, I want to ask some questions.”

The woman in the blue dress was surprised, but she gave a nod in the end and said, “You have earned the right to three questions. You may ask what you want to ask, but I also have the discretion to not answer if I am unable to answer.”

Lin Fan knitted his brows.

Three questions.

It was always three questions.

Still he didn’t have a way to force her to answer his questions and being given three questions was already good enough. If she had wanted to, she didn’t have any obligations to answer any questions at all.

Lin Fan fell into thought for a bit before asking, “What happened after Xia Yu died?”

This was the question that had been on his mind the entire time.

It was clear that Xia Yu’s beast taming method had been passed on which resulted in this world’s current system of taming pets. However, Xia Yu’s cultivation technique hadn’t been passed down in full and there were parts of it that were missing. Such as the part where one could share their cultivation with their pets.

If the cultivations of this world had been able to do that, the Beast Race would never have been able to push the humans back to this extent. But then again, the Myriad Races wouldn’t have sided with the humans either since they would have also been targeted by humans as pets.

So where did the deviation occur?

Not to mention, Lin Fan had seen the waves of robots that had appeared. He had already fought with those robots and he knew how strong they were, so he was certain that the experts of this universe wouldn’t have been able to defeat them after what Xia Yu had done.

Xia Yu had eliminated four of the eight main branches of the Beast Race, which meant that his pets had eliminated half or even more than half of the Beast Race population!

But even then…

There were still many questions that were on his mind about this.

The woman in the blue dress looked at Lin Fan for a bit before saying, “We won the war and the universe continued. That’s all you need to know.”

It was clear that she wasn’t willing to reveal more than this, but it also didn’t help Lin Fan since this was what he had already known.

However, the one thing that he had gained from this was that he had learned Xia Yu’s cultivation technique. If he wanted to, he could share his cultivation and laws with his pets, making him countless times stronger.

Lin Fan fell into thought again before asking, “What happened to the other cultivation techniques that the humans were using? Why did they change to only using the beast taking technique?”

The woman in the blue dress was surprised again, but this time her answer was different. Instead of answering the question, she just simply said, “No comment.”

Lin Fan had tried using a roundabout method to get an answer for his first question, but it seemed like it still wouldn’t work.

It must mean that the information that he wanted was considered some kind of taboo, one that even the gods weren’t allowed to speak about that easily. But that also gave Lin Fan some clues.

It could mean that there was someone even above the gods, or…it could be the orders of the golden man.

The golden man had left a deep impression on Lin Fan, as he should since he was the leader of the gods.

If it was the leader of the golden man, Lin Fan could understand why the gods would be so hesitant to talk about this. However, that would make him even more curious as to why he would give this order to the gods.

But all that was placed to the back of his mind since there was something else he had to do right now.

After taking a deep breath, he looked back up at the woman in the blue dress and asked, “Is there a way to save what Xia Yu cared about?”

The reaction this time from the woman in the blue dress was the strongest out of all three questions. She had a deeply shocked look on her face and looked at Lin Fan like she was sizing him up.

It took a while before the calm look returned to her face and she finally said, “No.”

It was a simple answer, a one word answer, but the meaning behind it was deep.

It was an answer that was filled with emotions, but the emotion that Lin Fan felt the most from her words was doubt. It was as if just this single question had cast doubt on everything that she had believed in previously.

Lin Fan just gave a nod before saying, “Alright, then send me back.”

The woman in the blue dress looked like she was about to say something else, but then it seemed like she swallowed those words as she said with a heavy sigh, “I wish you luck.”

She raised her hand and with a wave, there was a flash of light that covered Lin Fan’s vision.

When that flash of light disappeared, Lin Fan’s body collapsed once again.

There was a mass of clouds that had suddenly appeared under Lin Fan to stop his body from hitting the floor. Then after Lin Fan fell onto the clouds, the clouds suddenly moved to the side where a hole opened up in the wall.

The woman in the blue dress followed Lin Fan’s body out of this pure white room until they came to another room.

Unlike the previous pure white room, this room was completely decorated in luxurious items. It was a completely different scene from the previous room.

Once they arrived in this room, the mass of clouds carried Lin Fan over to a chair and just floated there as if it was waiting for something.

After a few seconds, there was a golden glow that surrounded Lin Fan before he suddenly opened his eyes again. However, compared to when he opened his eyes last time, this time his eyes had a completely different look to them.

This golden glow didn’t dissipate, rather it grew even stronger.

It continued to grow until Lin Fan’s pupils were completely golden, the same colour as the golden glow around him.

After a few more seconds, the golden glow around Lin Fan stabilized until it became a layer of light around him. At this point, Lin Fan suddenly sat up and jumped off the cloud, landing in the chair that was beside the clouds.

Once he had sat down, Lin Fan looked over at the woman in the blue dress who had been watching him during this entire time.

Seeing that he was looking over, the woman in the blue dress suddenly did something shocking.

She fell to one knee and bowed her head to him.

After that, she stood up again, but it was clear by the way that she was facing him that she was fearful and respectful of him. It was completely different from how she had treated Lin Fan previously.

​ Lin Fan looked at her for a bit before suddenly saying with a sigh, “Ask what you want to ask. Stop trying to guilt me like this.”

The woman in the blue dress trembled when she heard this, but then she shook her head with a bitter smile before asking, “Why are you hesitating?”
