He Qing sat on the bed. The first thing she did was to cast a spell to confirm if this was an illusion or something else.
Only when she activated her power did she discover that the condensed God Core was gone. Only the brilliant and flawless Golden Core remained.
She looked at the time on her divination watch. It was August 29th. Her family's banquet and her massacre of the Li family were both on August 28th.
Then, she entered the apocalyptic world. She cultivated for close to a hundred years inside. When she came out, it was already five years later.
Gao Zhengyang once said that time was the only scale of an era. Time could not be reversed. No matter how powerful an era was, it could not go back to the past.
If an era could exist in the past, present, and future, then there was no need for it to change. Everything else would lose its meaning.
Since time could not be reversed, how could everything in front of her be explained?
He Qing clutched her head, unable to figure out what was going on.
"Still thinking?" Gao Zhengyang sat on the chair in front of the bed and looked at the rising sun outside the window. "The weather is really good today."
He Qing lifted the thin blanket and looked at Gao Zhengyang pitifully. She felt very guilty facing Gao Zhengyang again.
She was not a fool after all. After receiving so much guidance from Gao Zhengyang, she still understood the situation.
After she killed the Li family, everything that she returned entered Gao Zhengyang's mental world.
This world was too real. She could not detect any problems at all. Thinking of her performance in the mental world, she felt very ashamed.
"Teacher, I'm sorry." He Qing lowered her head guiltily.
Gao Zhengyang asked, "How are you sorry? What compensation do you have? "
He Qing felt even more ashamed. Indeed, this kind of empty apology was very meaningless. This was especially true for a powerhouse like Gao Zhengyang.
She lowered her head even more. "I'm too weak and useless. I've let you down. "
"It's alright."
Gao Zhengyang said, "Most intelligent beings in this world are so weak. You're not bad. "
He Qing heard that Gao Zhengyang's tone was calm and did not seem to blame her. She sighed in relief. Thinking of what she had done yesterday, she was indeed very ashamed.
He Qing said carefully, "Teacher, I realized that I can't save the human race. I can't even manage myself. "
Through her experience in the Imagined World, He Qing realized that she was actually very weak. The so-called toughness was built on strength. Being stronger than others and being able to control the life and death of others at will was naturally powerful.
But when it was her turn to face the cruel fate, she could not stand it. It was as if he had gone mad. This was a classic case of losing control of his mind.
For a level nine psychic like her, she had already failed the moment she tried to do this.
"You'd better work hard. If you don't stand up and he doesn't stand up, the human race will really be finished. "
Gao Zhengyang calmly said, "Actually, I can bring my teammates, but I can't fly around with Bronze. It's at least at the level of an Eternal Diamond. "
"Am I an eternal diamond?" He Qing asked guiltily.
"At most, it's a small gold."
Gao Zhengyang said snappily.
To be honest, although he had expected He Qing's reaction, He Qing's mental breakdown had left him a little disappointed.
After going through so many hardships, He Qing still could not get rid of the shackles in her bones. The only thing worth rejoicing about was that He Qing did not completely lose her rationality. She just lost the motivation to move forward.
He Qing could not raise her head after being scolded. She hesitated and asked, "Teacher, how do we deal with the Li family?"
The fact that she could sleep until dawn proved that Gao Zhengyang had already taken care of this matter. Otherwise, the experts of Tianyue City would have come for her.
Gao Zhengyang curled his lips. "What else can I do? I'll clean up your mess again."
Gao Zhengyang reminded He Qing again, "I erased the Li family's dead upper echelon from the river of time. No one will remember them anymore. But all of this will eventually leave traces. "
"Then what should we do?" He Qing began to worry again. If they were still discovered, then she could only escape with her family now.
Although the apocalyptic world was not good, it was at least survivable. It was better than staying here and waiting for her family to die.
"What are you worried about?"
Gao Zhengyang shook his head. "Even if they want to trace the traces, they will only find me here. It has nothing to do with you."
Gao Zhengyang was not afraid of exposing his identity. It was not like he had not gained anything during the two months he had spent in Tianyue City. He could use this opportunity to test the other party's reaction.
This was too high a level, so there was no need to tell He Qing.
He said, "Although your divine core was formed from the spirit illusion world, there is no problem with the results of your cultivation. If you cultivate according to this path, you will soon be able to condense a divine core … "
He Qing was very surprised. She raised her head and sneaked a glance at Gao Zhengyang. "Teacher, you haven't given up on me?"
"Someone said I was heartless, so I wanted to slap her in the face! I wanted to let her know how loving I am … "
"Teacher, I was just talking nonsense …"
He Qing thought of what she had said and felt even more ashamed.
Gao Zhengyang waved his hand. "You are speaking the truth in times of crisis."
"I-I love you, Teacher."
He Qing did not dare to say anything else. At this time, she could only throw out her trump card and confess to Gao Zhengyang with a serious and cute expression.
Gao Zhengyang sighed and pinched He Qing's face. "You pass this time. This trick will not work next time. "
He Qing jumped up happily and hugged Gao Zhengyang. "Teacher is so nice. Teacher, let's have sex. "
"Scram."
"Alright."
He Qing's mood was so good after all the future troubles were resolved. She quickly got up and went out to eat.
Gao Zhengyang sat on the chair and fell into deep thought. The one-to-one method of accepting disciples was indeed inefficient.
He Qing could not be said to be a defective product, but her upper limit was still there. He really could not rely on her to save the human world.
Although asking He Qing to save the human world was more of a joke, Gao Zhengyang was indeed not interested in fighting for the human race.
This was not because he had given up. He still remembered what he had said. However, the life and death of the human race should not be placed in his hands alone. If the other billions of humans did not have the consciousness to save themselves, then this race did not have the right to survive.
If one He Qing could not do it, then a hundred, a thousand, or even ten thousand He Qings should be able to do it.
Gao Zhengyang felt that he should expand the scale of teaching and open a training school. However, humans were born with an extremely strong inertia.
If he wanted everyone to work hard and cultivate, he needed a special model.
While Gao Zhengyang was deep in thought, Liu Qifeng was also deep in thought in the office of Tianyue Capital's governor.
The governor's office was established in the original Shanguo Imperial Palace. This palace was said to have a history of nearly twenty thousand years.
In fact, in these few thousand years, the palace had been renovated and rebuilt many times and had changed a lot. But overall, it still maintained a grand, dignified style, and was extremely imposing.
Liu Qifeng's office was remodeled from the original Heavenly Secret Platform. This was also the highest point in Tianyue Capital.
The office was surrounded by floor-to-ceiling windows. As long as Liu Qifeng sat here, he could overlook the entire Tianyue Capital. With his eyesight, he could even see the situation hundreds of li away.
Overlooking his territory from a high vantage point, this position gave him an even greater sense of superiority than the imperial throne.
Liu Qifeng also preferred to sit here. Although the human world was large, there were not many offices with such a wide view.
At his level, daily cultivation didn't matter anymore. His habit was to come to the office at nine in the morning and work until nine at night. He would rest one day a week.
His superhuman energy and ability allowed him to easily deal with the complicated work. Of course, his main focus was on the development of spirit armor. Dealing with work was like relaxing and playing games to him.
On the morning of the thirtieth of August, Liu Qifeng dealt with work as usual, but he discovered a problem.
Yesterday, someone from the task force had reported to him that a member of the Li Family called Li Guang was acting strangely.
Normally, this kind of minor character would not enter Liu Qifeng's eyes. Including the Li Family, they were not worth mentioning.
However, the Li Family, the Fan Family, and the Wei Family were in cahoots. There was also the Zhang Family. After the Fan and Wei Families were destroyed, Liu Qifeng paid close attention to these two families.
With Liu Qifeng's status, he naturally could not personally pay attention to these two families. He only told the task force to watch the movements of these two families.
Yesterday, someone from the task force had reported that someone from the Li Family was causing trouble and that three civilians had died. Because it was night time, there was only a brief report. There were no details.
Liu Qifeng did not feel that the matter was important and did not pay attention. However, this morning, the task force did not have a follow-up report. This made him a little puzzled.
The people from the task force did not have the guts to be so careless.
Liu Qifeng directly contacted the task force's leader, Gou Yun. This person was strict, experienced, and impartial. He was loyal to him.
Because of this, many people behind him called Gou Yun the number one loyal dog.
Gou Yun was actually a beautiful woman. With her rank 11 cultivation, she would be a top talent anywhere. She had always been Liu Qifeng's assistant. It was because of this matter that she was transferred to lead the task force.
"Little Yun, what's the situation with the Li Family?" Liu Qifeng and Gou Yun were too familiar. He did not stand on ceremony and went straight to the point.
"Li Family?"
Gou Yun revealed a blank expression. "Lord, which Li Family are you talking about?"
Liu Qifeng's eyes darkened. Gou Yun would not joke with him like this.
In Tianyue City, there was only the Li Family represented by Li Yuanting. There would be no other Li Family. As a veteran rank 11 expert, Li Yuanting often went to the governor's office and had some friendship with Gou Yun. How could Gou Yun not remember?
Liu Qifeng was silent for a moment before asking, "What is Li Yuanting busy with?"
Gou Yun was still at a loss, but she did not ask further. She hurriedly said, "I will go investigate immediately."
Her authority was very high. She quickly gathered all the information on people named Li Yuanting. Under the rule of the Supreme Security Council, there were a total of 370,000 people named Li Yuanting.
Among these people, the highest cultivation was rank 8. Moreover, he was not in Tianyue City. There was no one named Li Yuanting in Tianyue City.
"Lord, which Li Yuanting are you looking for?" Gou Yun did not understand the situation and could only ask again. At least there had to be screening criteria to find people.
Liu Qifeng asked with a puzzled expression, "You don't remember Li Yuanting?"
Gou Yun was puzzled. "I know Li Yuanting? I don't remember at all. "
At her level, let alone a person with a name, even a passer-by on the street, as long as she was willing, she could remember the other party's figure and appearance.
If she knew Li Yuanting, she would definitely remember him. She did not know why Liu Qifeng asked this.
Liu Qifeng pondered for a moment before saying, "How many families are in cahoots with the demons?"
"Three, the Wei family, the Fan family, and the Zhang family."
This question was too simple. Gou Yun did not understand Liu Qifeng's meaning, but she still quickly answered.
Seeing Gou Yun's confident expression, Liu Qifeng's heart sank.
"Go do what you need to do."
Liu Qifeng turned off the video and opened his divination watch, wanting to find the report from yesterday. However, he found that the report had disappeared without a trace, as if it had never existed.
Liu Qifeng's heart immediately sank. What situation was this?
Who was this person who could even delete the records on his divination watch?
Liu Qifeng thought for a moment before contacting Zhang Kai. This Zhang family's eldest son was rank 12 and close to two thousand years old. He held an important position in Tianyue City. Even he had to be very polite to Zhang Kai.
"Hello, Elder Zhang. I have something to ask."
"Sir, just say it." Zhang Kai did not know what Liu Qifeng wanted, but his attitude was quite warm. He had a high status, but he could not afford to offend this rank 13 expert.
"Elder Zhang, you've been in Tianyue City for so long. Do you know a person called Li Yuanting?"
Liu Qifeng asked.
Elder Zhang Kai revealed a pondering expression before shaking his head. "I don't remember such a person."
Liu Qifeng looked at Zhang Kai's expression. He did not look muddle-headed or like he was lying to him. Zhang Kai and Gou Yun definitely did not have the guts to work together to lie to him.
"Thank you, Elder Zhang."
Liu Qifeng did not explain. After a few polite words, he turned off the video.
After chatting with Zhang Kai, he felt like there was an invisible mountain pressing down on his heart, making it hard for him to breathe.
He opened the Skynet again and searched for all the information on the Li family. However, all the records regarding the Li family had disappeared. This family did not seem to have existed.
Liu Qifeng even suspected that he had fallen into some kind of illusion, causing the Li family to appear in his mind!
Of course, a rank 13 expert could not have such a low-level illusion.
Liu Qifeng decided to take a look at the database. The Skynet could change, and so could a person's memory. However, written records could not be changed so easily.
Just as he was about to leave, a message suddenly popped up on the giant mirror: Do you want to know the meaning of living?
Liu Qifeng looked at the message and his blood seemed to freeze. Who was it? Such a terrifying divine ability!
