This time dimension is a very mystical place.
It governs all things in the Multiverse, yet it also transcends the world.
And this time rift just happens to sit at the junction between time and reality.
Here, light and darkness intermingle, creating chaos.
Every being that enters here will scatter to various places, so people like Fan Mengxue and Tang Xuan’er appearing together is quite a rare event.
Xue An leads Fan Mengxue and Tang Xuan’er to search for Hu Ying’s whereabouts.
It’s uncertain how much time has passed—whether it was just an instant or a whole year.
Suddenly, an illusion appears ahead.
When they feel the familiar presence within the illusion, the three stop in their tracks.
"Is it her?" Tang Xuan’er asks.
"It must be!" Fan Mengxue replies.
Xue An smiles slightly, "Whether it is or isn’t, we’ll know once we go in and take a look."
With that, Xue An steps into the illusion.
Fan Mengxue and Tang Xuan’er follow behind.
The moment they cross the outer layer of the illusion, the scenery changes abruptly.
It’s a towering hill, filled with countless exotic flowers and grasses, offering a stunning view.
Xue An’s eyes flicker slightly.
Because he knows this place too well.
It is the likeness of the former Qingqiu Fox Country.
He doesn’t disturb this illusion but steps forward slowly and soon reaches the top of the hill.
There is a giant tree at the summit, and seated beneath it is Hu Ying.
However, Hu Ying at this moment lacks her usual liveliness and quietly sits at the base of the tree, her head lowered, murmuring to a phantom before her.
"Brother An, have you missed me?"
The phantom, of course, cannot answer her question, and Hu Ying continues speaking on her own, "Since you didn’t say anything, I’ll assume you’ve missed me then. Hehe, I missed you too!"
After a few light laughs, Hu Ying suddenly sighs, "Those were the days I fondly remember with you and brother in Qingqiu!"
"Back then, you weren’t yet the unbeatable Red Lotus Immortal Venerable, and I would pester you all day to play with me. Sometimes it was to the point where you were deeply annoyed, yet you’d only helplessly and indulgently pinch my nose without ever getting mad at me!"
"That was the happiest time of my life! So Brother An..."
Hu Ying pauses, her voice slightly choked, "Do you know how much I like you, how much I want to see you?"
"I can’t stand staying in this wretched place for even a minute longer. I want to see you. If you can feel my thoughts, please appear quickly!"
Upon hearing Hu Ying’s words, Xue An is somewhat silent.
He really didn’t know this girl, whom he once saw as just a child, had such a sensitive inner world.
Years ago, while venturing the Multiverse, he befriended Huyue, and after becoming close friends, Xue An accompanied him to stay briefly in Qingqiu Fox Country.
Unexpectedly, this seemingly insignificant move was engraved deeply in Hu Ying’s memory for so long.
Tang Xuan’er and Fan Mengxue don’t have much emotional response.
They have long known Hu Ying’s feelings for Xue An were as deep as their own.
At this moment, Xue An no longer conceals his presence and coughs lightly, saying, "Ying’er!"
Hu Ying suddenly raises her head and sees Xue An along with Fan Mengxue and Tang Xuan’er standing behind him, and cannot help but be taken aback.
Xue An smiles slightly, "Ying’er, I’ve come to rescue you!"
Hu Ying blinks, and big tears rush out of her eyes.
This silent crying is the most heart-wrenching.
Even Xue An can’t help but feel a bit distressed and quickly steps forward, "Ying’er..."
Before finishing his words, he is hugged tightly by Hu Ying.
"Brother An, it’s really you! I thought I’d never see you again!" Hu Ying sobs in Xue An’s embrace.
"How could that be! Haven’t I come!" Xue An says softly.
