Told You I Can Turn Back Time

Chapter 425: Chapter 342: Entanglement

Listening to the swordswoman’s tale, the Great Bright Buddha fell into a moment of silence.

"I was rash to even think about studying the cultivation technique of such a madman."

"From now on, it’s better not to ask her about these things to avoid having my rational plan to advance to the Fourth Transmission thwarted by this crazy woman."

Although the Great Bright Buddha couldn’t understand what the swordswoman was saying, it was precisely this "not understanding" that made him realize a principle.

At this moment, the swordswoman was extremely mad and even more powerful than ever before!

"As long as the swordswoman maintains her current state, there is a chance to weaken the future Lin Xing and buy more time..."

The swordswoman, sensing the Great Bright Buddha’s continued silence, raised an eyebrow and said, "You don’t believe what I’m saying?"

The Great Bright Buddha smiled and replied, "It is not that I do not believe, but rather that I am overwhelmed by your astonishing wisdom and find myself at a loss for words."

The swordswoman scoffed, "Lies."

"It doesn’t matter, as long as you can bring Lin Xing to me."

"I will try to tolerate you until then."

The Great Bright Buddha nodded, then suddenly paused as if receiving some signal.

"Found it."

"The person who can bring Lin Xing back."

The swordswoman stood up, "Where?"

Moments later, a loud bang erupted, an invisible shockwave swept through the entire restaurant, scattering hundreds of people inside and outside, causing countless deaths and injuries.

The swordswoman’s figure blurred into afterimages as she, with a crazed smile, rushed toward the city center.

Wherever she passed, booming sonic explosions shattered countless building windows.

Suddenly, a series of fiery lights like numerous fiery snakes accompanied by thunderous roars shot towards her.

"Ha!"

In the crackling sounds of explosions, bullets were crushed by the sword energy she slashed through the air.

"The two realms have been connected for a long time, yet you primitives of the secret realms remain so backward."

"How could your mere firearms compare to the swordsmanship I’ve honed with great effort?"

As she spoke, multiple automated machine guns were slashed into scrap metal by her sword.

Following the information provided by the Great Bright Buddha, the swordswoman directly invaded an office building.

With a loud crash, the exterior wall of the building was smashed open.

The swordswoman, sensing each screaming and fleeing staff member, slightly frowned, "So many floors, how am I supposed to find her?"

"Got it."

"Whoever survives under my sword must be the person I’m looking for."

With a slight smile, a surge of intense sword intent rose from her being.

In an instant, the sharp sword intent cut everyone on that floor in two.

Feeling the screams of passersby being bisected, the swordswoman jumped, "How did everyone on the floor die?"

"Good thing she’s not on this floor."

"Damn, being too strong is also a hassle."

"Weaker, just give me weaker damn it."

"Mom, I’m not talking about you..."

As the swordswoman spoke, her originally unmatched sword intent, as if possessing its own consciousness, emitted a feeling of grievance and gradually retracted its power, weakening.

The next moment, this weakened sword intent swiftly pierced through the entire building.

Immediately, bodies inside the building exploded like balloons.

Copious amounts of blood rained down, spewing from shattered windows of the building, dyeing it red.

"I’ve found you."

Sensing a faint resistance from a certain spot, the swordswoman grinned and saw the floor beneath her feet shred by sword energy, and she plunged downward.

With a soft thud,

when the swordswoman landed on the sixth floor, she had found her target for this trip.

However, the target was already lying in a pool of blood.

"Are you Jing Shiyu?"

Sensing the increasingly fading life force of the other, the swordswoman furrowed her brow, "Why are you so weak?"

At that thought, streaks of sword energy suddenly appeared, swiftly piercing through Jing Shiyu’s limbs, pinning her to the ground.

...

In an underground base somewhere,

Jing Shiyu stood in a safe house, watching the scenes on the screen.

It depicted the swordswoman breaking into the office building, slaughtering countless people, and finally locating and killing ’Jing Shiyu.’

"Swordswoman..." Jing Shiyu’s brow furrowed slightly, "I knew I should have had Lin Xing kill you, you crazy woman."

Just then, the phone rang incessantly, and Jing Shiyu answered one by one, "Hmm, I’m fine."

"But the decoy I found is dead, please compensate her family well."

"Don’t bother chasing the swordswoman, you can’t handle her and it would only lead to more casualties."

"Don’t worry, I have my ways."

"This time the decoy’s tracks were exposed, probably the handy work of Great Bright Buddha."

"I’ll disconnect from the internet for now."

"If there’s anything, I will contact you myself..."

After soothing many important figures of this world, Jing Shiyu thought for a moment and made a call, "Hello? How’s the recovery from your injuries?"

From the other end came the voice of the Divine Dragon Gang Leader, "Sigh, I’m getting old, and with such serious injuries, I probably can’t fight for a year and a half..."

"Stop your nonsense." Jing Shiyu cut him off, "Old dog, you don’t think... I am asking for your opinion, do you?"

"Get up from that bed right now; I have a task for you."

After a long while, Jing Shiyu pondered for a moment, a trace of murderous intent flashing in her eyes, but she gradually suppressed it.

"If you’re not dead by now, consider yourself lucky."

Muttering these words, Jing Shiyu made another phone call and asked, "Is she dead yet?"

Yun Hezi’s voice came from the other end of the phone, "I was just about to make my move."

Jing Shiyu clenched her teeth and said, "Stop for now, tell me about her current condition."

...

On the battlefield where Gu She Fairy had previously engaged in combat.

Listening to the voice coming from the phone, Yun Hezi’s heart filled with slight suspicion, "What malicious thoughts does this woman have now?"

But his thoughts were just thoughts, and he honestly relayed the recent happenings on the battlefield to Jing Shiyu.

Then he heard Jing Shiyu say, "I know."

"Hand the phone to that woman, I have something to say to her."

"Ah?" Yun Hezi paused slightly, looking at the woman on the ground, whose consciousness was blurred, and said doubtfully, "She might not be able to communicate with you right now."

"Damn it, just give her the phone!"

After being scolded, a cold light flashed in Yun Hezi’s eyes, but he ultimately endured it.

He shrugged his shoulders and placed the phone by Gu She Fairy’s ear.

Then, a male voice came from the phone, a voice that belonged to Lin Xing.

"Gu She, I heard you’ve completed the task I gave you?"

The expression on Gu She Fairy’s face showed no reaction at first, as if she hadn’t heard him speak.

But after Jing Shiyu repeated herself twice, Gu She Fairy suddenly struggled to say, "Lin... Lin Xing, let someone kill me quickly."

"She... she wants to consume me, to control me!"

"Lin Xing" said, "Who? Who wants to control you?"

Gu She Fairy said with difficulty, "It’s someone from Kunlun, she’s merging with my memories, I won’t last much longer."

"Kill me while she still hasn’t gained complete control over me!"

"She wants to consume me... let’s die together!"

But from the other end of the phone came ’Lin Xing’s’ gentle voice, "Gu She, I will never let anyone kill you."

"You must survive."

"Wait for me to return from beyond the heavens, and I will be with you forever."

Upon hearing these words, Gu She Fairy was momentarily stunned, then tears continuously streamed from the corners of her eyes as she said with a tremble, "Lin Xing, you..."

The tone of ’Lin Xing’ on the other side became even more tender, "I’ve remembered everything."

"I love you, Gu She... I truly do."

"So you must survive."

"I believe that you can defeat that person from Kunlun, hold on until I return..."

’Lin Xing’ continued to say many things, but Gu She Fairy could no longer hear them.

"Lin... Lin Xing..."

Her mind kept replaying the three sentences that Lin Xing had just said, her whole demeanor seeming to undergo a drastic transformation, and she gradually became more spirited from her former weakness.

Yun Hezi watched this scene in shock, thinking to himself, "Was that really Lin Xing’s voice? No, no, no, how could that maniac speak such nauseatingly cheesy words?"

"Was that Jing Shiyu’s doing?"

"This woman truly is malicious..."

At that moment, Gu She Fairy looked up at Yun Hezi and said, "Hey, get the phone, I’ve got instructions for you."

Yun Hezi picked up the phone, and Jing Shiyu’s voice came through, "I’ll give you an address, remember it."

"Take that woman over there."

"Remember, if she shows any abnormalities along the way, kill her immediately."

"Abnormalities?" Yun Hezi looked at Gu She Fairy, whose face had a silly smile, and said helplessly, "Has she ever not been abnormal?"

Jing Shiyu thought for a moment and then said, "If you feel like she has become a different person, whether it’s her personality or demeanor, anything at all, then you can take action."

...

Outside the office.

Zhao Wanxi listened to a loud bang coming from inside the room and felt a slight tightening in her heart.

Then a woman’s voice came from inside, "Is that you, Wanxi? Come in."

Zhao Wanxi walked into the room and saw an office desk twisted into scrap.

She thought to herself, "What made her so angry?"

"Given her cunning, she must be really furious... it seems the situation outside is quite dire."

As Zhao Wanxi was pondering, Jing Shiyu’s voice reached her, "Zhao Wanxi, there’s something I need you to do."

"But before that, let me ask... can you find the Great Bright Buddha?"

...

While the situation on the ground was changing and battles among the strong were continuously unfolding.

The battle beyond the heavens was also becoming increasingly intense, approaching a stage close to determining the victor.

"Who would have thought you’d miss the best opportunity to defeat me just to save some trash from the earth."

Little Lin Xing looked at Lin Xing in front of him, "You hypocrite, do you think they will be grateful to you?"

"No! They will only blame you for not saving them quickly enough, not saving enough of them, not saving well enough."

"And once I have completely defeated you and returned to the earth, they will only lick the ground I’ve walked on before them, devaluing you to nothing, even though you lost your chance to win because you were saving them."

Behind Lin Xing, bodies gradually shattered, and a sea of blood began to emerge again.

"Mad dog, you just don’t understand, you just don’t get it. I do this because I want to, and because I can."

"As for others’ gratitude or adoration, I no longer need such useless things."

"If you want to stop me, then try to resist me with the power you’ve gained after your breakthrough, rather than spouting some nonsensical words."
