Agent Time Travel: Apocalypse in the Magical World

Lu Qing stared blankly at the remnant soul in front of him that looked exactly like the Demon Lord.

But the tone of voice when speaking to me was exactly the same as the one that had appeared in countless dreams.

"You, you, you..." Lu Qing hesitated.

"Yes, it's me. A fragment of the Demon Lord's soul. The man you once loved deeply was just a body that the Demon Lord took away." Bai Kong said slowly, "The soul is me."

"No, no, you lied to me!" Lu Qing murmured.

"Have the Yongting flowers in the stone water pool bloomed?" Bai Kong asked slowly.

Lu Qing's body was shaken, and his thoughts went back to the past:

"Brother, look at this pond, give it a name."

"What name would I give it? Something with rocks and water, let's call it Stone Water Pool."

"Sounds good!"

"Ah? That sounds good, haha."

"What's the name of that wild flower?"

"I know this one. It's called Yongting Flower. It's said to be made from the tears of a magician. It's extremely difficult for it to bloom."

"That's not that difficult. I can just make a wish on my next birthday and ask it to bloom, right?"

......

"Qing'er, does the hidden injury on your ankle still hurt?"

"Qing'er, the stone with the words engraved in the culvert under the fourth peak of Cangjian Mountain is still there, right?"

"Qing'er, are there any stone cakes from Granny Liu on Pingmin Street left for sale?"

......

"Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!" Lu Qing covered his ears with his hands, his expression distorted. Tears fell like beads from a broken string, dripping into the turbulence of time and space beneath his feet, seeping into the vast river of time.

"So," Qin Xiaoxian interrupted, "all of this is the trick of Demon Lord Bai Kong."

Bai Kong sighed and nodded, "Qing'er is a formation magic prodigy that I didn't meet two years ago. Many years ago, when she was still a young girl, her talent attracted the attention of some spies in the organization, and they reported her situation to me. At that time, I thought she would be of great help to my future absorption of souls, so I tried to win her over. Of course, the best way to deal with a girl of that age is with a man."

"The Demon Lord really uses every possible means." Qin Xiaoxian curled her lips.

"Haha, at that time, I did everything I could to reach the ninth level." Bai Kong said self-deprecatingly.

"So, everything is a lie, right?" Blood and tears began to flow from Lu Qing's eyes. "My family, my father, and all those who died because of me?"

Qin Xiaoxian and Bai Kong were also silent.

Once something happens, how can it be changed?

Sometimes the truth itself is more cruel than the result.

"Have you ever loved me?"

After a while, Lu Qing uttered something.

"The Demon Lord Bai Kong at that time didn't do that. It was just a trap." Bai Kong shook his head.

Lu Qing was stunned for a moment and then laughed.

"But now, as the soul at that time, I have all the feelings. I think I loved you." Bai Kong added.

But even Qin Xiaoxian didn't feel too much emotion from Bai Kong's words.

It cannot be said to be a lie, but compared to Lu Qing, this kind of emotion is too little, so little that it can almost be ignored.

"I understand." Lu Qing breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment Qin Xiaoxian felt something was wrong.

Formations rose up around the two of them.

"Can you tell me where the Demon Lord is?" Qin Xiaoxian asked again.

"He is in Aser City, you have to kill him for me!" Lu Qing said.

"Come back with me. I think you have the right to take revenge yourself." Qin Xiaoxian advised.

Lu Qing shook his head and said, "My sins are too numerous to list and cannot be washed away. Even if I die, I will not have the face to go to the netherworld and face the people I killed."

Then she detonated the magic circle around her: "I have located your position on the normal timeline. I will blast a space-time rift for you so that you can go back. My soul will remain in the turbulence of time and space, and suffer eternal torture for my sins."

Immediately afterwards, huge energy fluctuations began to occur with Lu Qing as the center.

Finally, she looked at Bai Kong, who also sighed and closed his eyes.

Qin Xiaoxian did not stop her. He knew that this was probably Lu Qing's best choice.

"Come in, Brother Bai."

Bai Kong opened her eyes again after hearing Qin Xiaoxian's call, and looked deeply at Lu Qing, whose eyes happened to meet hers.

At this moment, both of them could feel deeply that they had loved each other.

That's enough.

The next moment, Bai Kong entered the ring, and Lu Qing's body exploded. The huge energy fluctuations twisted the turbulence of time and space, causing a not-so-small wave of shock, and dragged Qin Xiaoxian into a time and space rift.

When Qin Xiaoxian opened her eyes again, she saw Cen Zhi, with a dark face and angry expression, looking at her stupidly.

"Xiaoxian! You scared me to death! How could you go after the Demon Lord by yourself?" Cen Zhi was still holding Jiang Ning's body, but his face was full of anxiety.

At this time, Jiang Chuyang suddenly appeared beside the two of them, looking at Jiang Ning's body with complicated eyes.

Xu Haoran and Xiao Jiu followed closely, staring at Jiang Chuyang warily.

"Did Bai Kong do it?" Jiang Chuyang asked.

Qin Xiaoxian looked at the remnant soul that was slowly dissipating without saying a word.

"His soul has been absorbed, so my spiritual wisdom has revived, but it will soon dissipate." Jiang Chuyang suddenly laughed, "The three of us have been fighting for a lifetime, but I didn't expect that I would be the first to quit."

"The great magician Yusu is also dead." Qin Xiaoxian said.

"Yusu? How could that be? He's even harder to kill than that guy Bai Kong."

After saying this, his soul disappeared into the air along with the dissipation of the eighth-level mimicry magic.

Qin Xiaoxian was still chewing on Jiang Chuyang's words when a voice rang out: "Hey, Grandpa, are you okay?"

Soul Envoy No. 128 appeared in front of them.

Cen Zhi summoned a fire pig to carry Jiang Ning's body.

Xu Haoran removed the natural magic tree demon armor, and Xiaojiu also stuffed several large wooden boxes into Cen Zhi's ring.

Carrot Head jumped from Xu Haoran's shoulder to Qin Xiaoxian's shoulder.

"Hey," Soul Envoy No. 128 of the Earth Class quickly bowed to Carrot Head, "You are here too? Lord Soul Emperor often mentions you. Whenever he misses us in the Netherworld, he will go back to see us."

Carrot Head nodded in a humane way.

"What are you doing here?" Cen Zhi asked.

Isn’t this the residual soul of an eighth-level great magician? I came here to collect it.

As he spoke, he grabbed in the air, and the soul fragments that Jiang Chuyang had just scattered were collected into the container.

"By the way, I have one more thing to tell you, Grandpa," said No. 128, "The Soul Emperor also sent me to check. Before, hundreds of millions of civilian souls in the Linhai Empire did not return to the netherworld."

"What?" Qin Xiaoxian and the other three exclaimed at the same time.
