Chapter 926: Sealing off the timeline
“Dad, you made such a big commotion just now!”
Upon seeing Xiaya finish his training, Meifei finally dared to speak. She had been holding her breath, afraid that she would disturb her father’s training.
Xiaya smiled happily, “I made quite a big breakthrough.”
“Meifei, we can now leave Planet Yardrat.”
“Are we finally leaving?” Meifei was overjoyed. She had been stuck here for two hundred years and couldn’t go anywhere. It was driving her crazy.
“Yes, it’s about time.” Xiaya nodded. Suddenly, he glanced at the void and shouted, “Tang Xing, I knew you would come here.”
As expected, right after Xiaya’s words fell, an ethereal laughter echoed, and Time King’s graceful figure emerged from the void.
“Congratulations, Xiaya. It seems you have found your own path,” Time King smiled radiantly, briefly glancing at the vigilant Meifei standing beside him, before turning to Xiaya to offer her congratulations.
“I should have known you would come. If it weren’t for me just completing the Domain, I might not have discovered you.”
“Dad, who is she?” Meifei looked at the Time King warily. She had never seen such a beautiful woman before. She felt the need to keep an eye on her father for her two mothers.
Smack!
Xiaya playfully hit Meifei on the head and laughed, scolding her, “This is the Time King of Time Realm. As a G.o.d of Destruction, you should bow to her. Lazuli is also training under her guidance now.”
“Time King!!”
Meifei was startled and looked at Tang Xing up and down, making clicking sounds with her tongue. Time King’s status was higher than that of Zeno. She was just a G.o.d of Destruction of a universe, and if it weren’t for Xiaya, she wouldn’t even have the qualification to know about Time King. After reacting, she quickly bowed to Time King.
Time King nodded amicably at Meifei, and Meifei, scared, promptly hid behind Xiaya.
“I actually arrived a long time ago and made some calculations. I found out that you would be staying on this planet for two hundred years, so I jumped through time to come here. Fortunately, I had good luck and witnessed your enlightenment process. Seeing you find your path, I am now relieved. From now on, just continue to follow the planned path step by step.”
Seeing Xiaya seemingly finding the fourth path and taking the solid first step, Time King was in a very good mood because it means that she and Universe King could soon freely leave this world.
“It may be convenient for you to come and go like that, but it’s been tough for me.”
After learning about the origins of Time King and Universe King and making his own progress, Xiaya could now stand tall in front of Tang Xing and sit on equal footing.
Time King smiled and shook her head. “You know, the timeline has no meaning to me.”
“Alright, let me take you both back to the correct era.”
As she said that, Time King suddenly produced a slender scepter in her hand, similar to the silver scepter of the Great Heaven Official, with a dazzling gem embedded on top.
Whoos.h.!.+
Time King twirled the scepter with her finger, and sparkling beams of light radiated from it, creating a mist-like haze that quickly formed a vast net. Time King tapped the scepter, and the net vanished into the void. With the disappearance of the net, the history of the past two hundred years a.s.sociated with this era was completely sealed off.
“Although you two haven’t made significant changes to history in these two hundred years, your mere existence has somewhat influenced the future. I will temporarily seal off this timeline, and it will be unlocked when you return.”
“If there are any changes by then, they will be within an acceptable range.”
Xiaya understood that this was the force of historical correction at work. Time King, with her immensely powerful strength, suppressed the era and gradually eroded the influence of these two hundred years in the endless flow of time, allowing the force of time correction to mend all disturbances.
Of course, this was under the condition that Xiaya and the others did not interfere too much with the trajectory of history. If, at this moment, Xiaya leisurely went to kill a G.o.d of Destruction, even with the strong force of time correction, the new timeline created by those actions would overwrite the previous one.
After Time King sealed off this timeline, she put away the beautiful scepter and then activated her s.p.a.ce-time power.
This was the second time Xiaya had witnessed the Time King using her s.p.a.ce-time power since she a.s.sisted him in breaking through the fifth level of the Divine Realm. The silver-gray s.p.a.ce-time power surged out like a tide.
A sparkling distortion appeared in the s.p.a.ce in front of them, followed by the appearance of a portal.
“Let’s go!”
A cold voice uttered, then like the rotation of the sun and moon, time pa.s.sed by and everything in front of them became blurry. When they came back to their senses, what greeted their eyes was a magnificent scene filled with dense energy.
“This is the Time King’s Palace…”
The palace with blue tiles and white walls stood tall before them, and Xiaya immediately recognized it as the Time King’s Palace.
“We’re back already?” Meifei’s head felt a bit dizzy, so she shook it to dispel the dizziness.
“Yes, this is my palace. It has only been a little over ten minutes since you went to the past.”
…
Universe 5, G.o.d of Destruction’s Realm.
Zeno’s sudden arrival made Beerus and Champa break out in a cold sweat.
“Zeno-sama!”
Whis, Vados, Beerus, Champa, and others all respectfully bowed.
“Hmm~ I sense that the Great Priest has suddenly fallen into a deep sleep. Has something happened? Oh, why is it so empty here? Did you two fight and destroy the G.o.d of Destruction’s Realm? That’s not good~” Zeno opened his coin-like eyes, looking surprised at the empty G.o.d of Destruction’s Realm, instinctively thinking that Beerus and Champa had done something bad.
On both sides of Zeno, two tall and slender bodyguards were diligently carrying out their guarding duties.
“Zeno-sama, it wasn’t Beerus-sama who caused the destruction of G.o.d of Destruction’s Realm. It was the Original King hidden behind the scenes…”
While Beerus and Champa were in terror, Whis stepped forward to explain.
Zeno floated over and asked, “Who is the Original King? Is he the one who caused the Great Priest to fall into sleep?”
“Indeed, that’s the case. Original King has always schemed to destroy each era. Zeno-sama, you are also one of his targets.” Although Zeno’s intellect wasn’t very high, he should still have the most basic self-preservation instinct. Whis spoke these words, hoping that Zeno would be on guard.
“Oh, then he’s a bad person. If I encounter him, I’ll definitely eliminate him.”
Zeno tilted his head and clenched his fist tightly.
Seeing that Zeno was on guard, Whis glanced at Vados and said to the two bodyguards beside Zeno, “Both of you, please make sure to protect Zeno-sama.”
“Umm!” The guards nodded and stood guard on either side of Zeno.
Swis.h.!.+
A bright flash suddenly appeared, and Goku and Vegeta appeared in G.o.d of Destruction’s Realm.
When they saw that Whis, Vados, and others were safe and sound, and even Zeno was here, their restless hearts finally calmed down.
