Landry smiled and said, “Perhaps even more than that, because the time of divergence is like going around in a circle. You feel it’s speeding up, but the time experienced must be longer.”
“I think maybe what Zhong Ya intends is that time will continue only after they return. She’s truly staking everything on this.”
Lin Feng took a deep breath. According to Landry, he was the first and last person to Zhong Ya arranged to transmigrate. That was why Landry said that she was staking everything on it.
Because once the target goes back in time, she had to suppress the void and could not do anything else. Therefore, he could only be the first and the last.
Lin Feng thought of another question. “Since we can’t meet the future Zhong Ya, can we go back in time to meet the past Zhong Ya?”
Landry shook his head with a smile, “This involves the rules of causality. If you meet the past Zhong Ya and she learns about future events, then will what happens later still be later?”

Lin Feng understood the first half of Landry’s words, but the second half confused him.
“Unique within time? What does that mean?”
Landry smiled. “It’s a little complicated to explain.
“Let me put it this way: if you meet the past me, the me who hasn’t known you yet, and if I’m that kind of expert, then the me back then and the me now have no difference.”
“The me back then would also know you and even know the future you.”
Lin Feng became a little confused this time. What past me and future me was Landry talking about?
Seeing Lin Feng’s confusion, Landry tried another way of explaining, “In essence, the true self is always the same. No matter which time period you see me in, it’s still the true me.”
“Even if you turn back time and kill an expert when he was young, you won’t be able to kill such an expert because he’s always so powerful.”
Lin Feng was taken aback. “Are there really such people?”
Only then did he realize the terrifying nature of time. If there were experts who could travel back in time and kill their past selves, would their future selves still exist?
“Yes, I suspect that Xiao Yaozi is such a person.” Landry smiled.
It was Xiao Yaozi again. Just what kind of expert was this person to be so powerful as to disregard time?
“But don’t worry, as I said, those who manipulate time will be manipulated by time. So, no one would foolishly go back in time to kill weak enemies from their past, because even if you kill them, when you come back, they might not really be dead,” Landry said.
Lin Feng nodded in realization. “The diverged timelines, where the dead enemies go, create an entirely different stream of time, while the original timeline remains unchanged.”
“That’s one way to put it. So, if someone wants to go back in time and kill their past self, they might get lost in time, unless they do it like Zhong Ya did, going back an entire world’s timeline.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“However, the gap in time will devour you. You have no choice but to suppress it. In that case, who will kill the enemy?”
Lin Feng nodded. At the same time, he noticed the word ‘devour’ that Landry had mentioned. Obviously, Zhong Ya’s act of going back in time through an entire world’s timeline came with inevitable consequences.
At this point, all his doubts seemed to have been explained.
Zhong Ya used the hourglass of time, selected herself through Zhou Tiansheng, and then returned to the critical moment. However, she had to suppress the blank space of time.
Due to the self-stabilization of time, the existing events were erased, and Zhou Tian Sheng and others forgot what they had done to him. They only saw traces of time on him, which is why they have been helping him.
Now, the only thing Lin Feng needed clarification on was why Zhong Ya chose him directly.
An S-level talent might appear in Su Xiuxiu, so it’s not because of the talent. Could there be something on him that he hadn’t noticed?
But these things probably had to wait until Zhong Ya returned to know for sure.
Lin Feng took a deep breath and then looked at Zhou Tian Sheng, who was still contemplating the time issue. He said, “Minister Zhou, I think I already have a clear understanding of my situation. Can you tell me about the situation in the Island Country? You’ve been mentioning having a plan all along, so can you share some details?
At this moment, Lin Feng did not call Zhou Tiansheng senior brother, but Minister Zhou. Clearly, this matter made Lin Feng very serious.
Zhou Tiansheng came back to his senses and nodded. “Originally, I shouldn’t have said these things. However, now that I’ve confirmed that you’ve come back from the future, there are some things that I need to verify from you.”
