"N-no, Mom, I just lost my balance!" Luo Xi quickly responded to Luo's mother outside the door, though she was equally puzzled about why Ye Chuan had suddenly appeared in her room.
But considering Ye Chuan seemed to possess all sorts of strange abilities, Luo Xi soon stopped overthinking it.
After all, it was just Chuan-chuan.
She turned around, buttoned up a few more buttons on her clothes, then crossed her arms and lowered her voice. "Chuan-chuan, why did you suddenly appear in my room? It’s really scary."
"It’s a long story," Ye Chuan coughed lightly.
But it seems the Anywhere Door still works?
Then what’s the real reason?
Is the Tianxuan Continent too far away?
As Ye Chuan pondered, Luo Xi noticed his gaze and assumed he had been staring at her chest. Her cheeks flushed slightly.
"What are you looking at? It’s not like you haven’t seen them before."
Ye Chuan snapped out of his thoughts and instinctively replied, "Huh?"
"Hmph." Luo Xi thought he was playing dumb. She leaned in, wrapping her arms around his neck with a playful grin. "Beg your wife nicely, and I’ll let you."
Ye Chuan smirked and pinched her cheek. "Do I need to?"
"Ugh, stop messing around!"
The two began roughhousing in the room, though Luo Xi was clearly no match for Ye Chuan. In the excitement, she forgot she was still at home, and her occasional raised voice caught Luo's mother’s attention outside.
"What’s going on, Xi-xi? Did you fall again?"
Hearing the clattering from her daughter’s room, Luo's mother initially thought she was on a video call with Ye Chuan, but it didn’t quite sound like it.
Had she hurt herself? After all, Luo Xi had seemed startled earlier.
"Huh? No, nothing’s wrong," Luo Xi called back from inside the room. "Yeah, it’s fine… Mom, really, it’s nothing."
"Are you sure?"
"Mhm!"
Though still a little worried, Luo's mother didn’t press further. "I’m making dinner. Is Chuan-chuan coming over?"
"Well… Chuan-chuan’s already here."
"Huh?" Luo's mother was confused. Ye Chuan hadn’t come over today—had he visited earlier in the morning?
"No, no, Mom, I mean he’s busy…"
"Alright."
Luo's mother returned to cooking, while inside the room, Luo Xi grabbed Ye Chuan’s arm and bit it.
Though it left faint teeth marks, Ye Chuan felt no pain and just chuckled. "What was that for?"
Luo Xi rolled her eyes and bit him again. "Hmph! You did that on purpose! Always teasing me."
Ye Chuan held up his hands innocently.
After a moment, Luo Xi spoke up. "Chuan-chuan, um, come here for a sec. Don’t just stand there."
"What is it?"
"I might need to visit my grandma’s place this weekend."
Grandma’s place?
"It’s not entirely safe outside right now. Why take unnecessary risks?" Ye Chuan said, though he had already stationed powerful Pokémon around Luo Xi for protection.
To ensure her safety, he had even assigned her dozens of shadow monsters—enough to overwhelm any threat through sheer numbers.
The avatars could synchronize with his own strength, meaning those Pokémon were at the Crystal Realm level.
"But it’s for my grandma," Luo Xi explained. "She’s been unwell and living in the countryside. I heard spatial rifts have started appearing there too… They were suppressed immediately, but Mom’s worried."
"So you want to bring her here?"
"Yeah."
"Then I’ll go with you," Ye Chuan said with a smile.
"Really? But don’t you have things to do?" Luo Xi was surprised.
"What things? I’m free."
Though Ye Chuan was effectively the shadow ruler of the local Super Martial Alliance, he didn’t need to handle much personally. He could just delegate tasks to the Wang Family, hand over some elixirs or transformation devices, and let them handle the rest.
"Yay, perfect!" Luo Xi beamed.
Then she seemed to remember something. "Oh, Chuan-chuan, you still haven’t told me how you got into my room."
"I can teleport," Ye Chuan said. With his spatial magic—whether through spells or the Anywhere Door—entering Luo Xi’s room was effortless.
"Oh."
After more playful banter, Ye Chuan decided to leave since Luo's mother was calling Luo Xi for dinner, and Luo's father’s voice could also be heard outside.
"I’m heading out."
"Kiss me first."
After a quick peck, Ye Chuan vanished from her room. Luo Xi stood there, hands behind her back, glancing around like a lovestruck girl before blinking cutely, a hint of reluctance in her eyes.
"Xi-xi, dinner’s ready."
"Coming~"
Luo Xi stepped out, and Luo's mother immediately noticed her disheveled hair. "Your hair’s a mess. Let me fix it for you."
"Okay."
……
Back in his own room, Ye Chuan examined the Anywhere Door in his backpack.
Only one use left.
But why did the first attempt send him to Jining?
The second one worked, though.
"Wait… why don’t I just ask the magical loli grandma or Doraemon?" Ye Chuan suddenly thought of Lilith and Ke Ning.
Since Ke Ning was busy in her room, Ye Chuan tapped the jade pendant in his hand.
"Lilith, you there?"
The pendant vibrated, emitting a violet glow.
Lilith’s figure materialized, her gaze sweeping the room before settling on Ye Chuan’s bed, her slender legs dangling. "What is it?"
Ye Chuan pulled out the Anywhere Door and explained the situation.
"Where do you keep getting these bizarre items?" Lilith frowned, sensing the overwhelming spatial energy radiating from the door. "This thing… it really can take you anywhere. The spatial laws embedded in it surpass even the strongest teleportation arrays on Aiser Continent."
"Then why did it fail?"
Lilith twirled a strand of hair around her finger, thinking for a few seconds.
"Two possibilities. First, the place you mentioned… is beyond even this level of spatial law."
"That makes sense," Ye Chuan agreed. "And the second?"
"Simple. The second is that the destination exists in a different time dimension," Lilith answered.
Time…
"This door excels in spatial manipulation but lacks temporal laws," Lilith clarified.
Meaning…
Does time flow differently on the Tianxuan Continent?
Or is it just too distant?
As Ye Chuan mulled it over, he noticed Lilith staring intently at him.
"What’s wrong?"

Now, face the consequences of your choice!" Chen Feng possessed the "Master System," a treasure trove of supreme martial arts techniques, capable of molding ordinary individuals into peerless prodigies. "Legs like yours? A shame not to train in the Crippling Kick." "Ever heard of a palm strike that descends from the heavens?" "Auntie!

The once-defiant senior disciple, now watching her juniors rise to fame one after another, dominating the internet, was consumed by endless regret.
