The Nine-Tailed Divine Fox Ancestor slowly rose to her feet. At this moment, Chen Chang'an realized that the intoxicating fragrance he had been smelling was actually her natural scent.
It had to be said—every movement of the Nine-Tailed Divine Fox Ancestor could stir a man's heart.
Even though Chen Chang'an tried his best to control himself, it was inevitable that his mind would occasionally falter.
"What's wrong?"
"You don’t remember me?"
"Chen Chang'an?"
"Or do you know so many women that you can’t keep track?"
Her words alone were enough to send a shiver down Chen Chang'an’s spine, as if countless ants were crawling under his skin.
This feeling was truly uncomfortable.
Damn it!
This woman was far too alluring. The combination of her beauty and voice made Chen Chang'an think that in battle, she wouldn’t even need to lift a finger—just speaking would be enough.
Who could resist her?
Not to mention, her cultivation was likely at the peak of the Immortal Emperor realm.
Fortunately, Chen Chang'an possessed the Wisdom Law, allowing him to quickly regain his composure and avoid falling into her trap.
Yet, Chen Chang'an couldn’t help but feel puzzled. If he had met such a stunning woman before, there was no way he would have forgotten her.
So why couldn’t he recall where he had seen her?
And why did she feel so familiar?
"You are…?" Chen Chang'an asked hesitantly.
Seeing how quickly Chen Chang'an had steadied himself, the Nine-Tailed Divine Fox Ancestor was slightly taken aback.
"Chen Chang'an."
"You really do have a short memory."
"You may not remember me, but you surely haven’t forgotten the name Hu Tianjiao, have you?"
Hu Tianjiao?
Hearing this name, Chen Chang'an’s expression suddenly changed.
She was Hu Tianjiao?
This…
Of course, Chen Chang'an remembered who Hu Tianjiao was. In the Tai Xuan Realm, he had very few female acquaintances—almost negligible.
But Hu Tianjiao was one of them. However, after meeting, they had only spent a few months together before Chen Chang'an left.
Yet, Chen Chang'an never imagined that these two figures could be connected.
No wonder she felt familiar. Had Hu Tianjiao concealed her true cultivation and altered her appearance back then just to meet him in the Tai Xuan Realm?
"The Hu Tianjiao from the Tai Xuan Realm… is you?"
"Back then, you not only hid your strength but also changed your appearance?" Chen Chang'an frowned.
"Obviously."
"With looks like mine, I could never stay low-key wherever I went."
"If I didn’t alter my appearance, it would’ve been troublesome."
"I didn’t want to accidentally destroy the entire Tai Xuan Realm in a moment of excitement."
"What would’ve happened to you then?" Hu Tianjiao said with a smile.
Her smile alone was enough to dazzle anyone, leaving them utterly stunned.
Seeing Chen Chang'an’s reaction, Hu Tianjiao nodded in satisfaction. "Now that’s the reaction a man should have when looking at me."
"You were far too calm earlier. I was starting to wonder if you even liked women."
Chen Chang'an could only laugh helplessly at her words. Why did people always suspect he preferred men?
"Let’s cut to the chase."
"Why did you wait for me?"
"Even someone like you went to the Tai Xuan Realm just to meet me."
"What’s the real reason?" Chen Chang'an asked.
Hearing this, Hu Tianjiao’s expression turned serious. She gestured for Chen Chang'an to sit beside her before speaking.
"Do you know what innate divine ability our Nine-Tailed Divine Fox Clan possesses?"
Innate divine ability?
Wasn’t it just beauty, charm, and allure?
Reading Chen Chang'an’s expression, Hu Tianjiao shook her head. "What you’re thinking of isn’t it."
"Those are merely racial advantages, not innate divine abilities."
"Our Nine-Tailed Divine Fox Clan’s innate divine ability is to traverse the past and future."
Traverse the past and future?
The Law of Time?
Holy shit!
The Nine-Tailed Divine Fox Clan was born with such an ability?
Didn’t that mean they inherently wielded the power of laws?
"All members of your clan have mastered the Law of Time?" Chen Chang'an asked in astonishment.
"No!"
"Our Nine-Tailed Divine Fox Clan isn’t that formidable."
"The Law of Time is far too profound—not just anyone can grasp it."
"We merely possess the ability to traverse past and future, nothing more."
"And not every member of our clan can awaken this innate divine ability."
So that’s how it was.
Chen Chang'an had been wondering—if every Nine-Tailed Divine Fox had this ability, their strength would be terrifying.
It seemed only those with exceptional talent or pure bloodlines could awaken it.
And the Hu Tianjiao before him was one such individual.
"What does this have to do with me?" Chen Chang'an asked curiously.
"It has everything to do with you."
"After I successfully awakened this ability, I couldn’t resist using it a few times."
"The first two times, I traveled to the past, but I was merely an observer, forced to watch silently. It was rather dull."
"The last time, I chose the future."
"And in that future, I met you."
Huh?
Met me in the future?
What did that mean?
"You’ve waited for me for millions of years. So, you traveled from millions of years ago to this present moment and saw me?"
"And then?"
"What did I do to you?" Chen Chang'an asked.
At this, Hu Tianjiao couldn’t help but roll her eyes. What did you do to me? What did you want to do to me?
That single glance was enough to make Chen Chang'an nearly stand up in salute.
"The ‘you’ I met wasn’t the present you."
"It was… a future version of you."
"All I remember is that the Ancient Immortal Domain was in ruins, rivers of blood flowing, as if on the verge of annihilation."
"I saw my own corpse there—I had died in that calamity."
"The only one left alive… was you."
"But…"
At this point, Hu Tianjiao’s expression turned grave, and Chen Chang'an’s did as well.
The only survivor was him?
Meaning everyone he knew had perished?
"But what?" Chen Chang'an pressed, his brow furrowing.
"It seemed someone noticed me during my journey to the future."
"I could feel eyes watching me."
"The last thing I saw before fleeing was a colossal hand descending from the sky, rushing toward you."
"As for what happened afterward… I have no idea."
"So, do you understand now why I’ve been waiting for you?"

ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!
