The man in front of him, wasn't he the one he had just killed?
He appeared directly facing him, leaping out through a portal.
So the impression was quite profound.
What chilled Zhang Chen and Xila even more was that this person, using the same method of appearance, asked the same question!
What was going on?
It certainly couldn't be described as déjà vu or memory confusion.
After all, Xila wasn't old, she hadn't reached the point of memory disorder.
How could both of them simultaneously experience such a situation?!
"Heh, do you think because I'm old, I can be toyed with by you younglings?"
"A petty trick, daring to show off before a master?!"
"What illusion, dissipate it all!"
Zhang Chen was getting angry. He raised his left hand and waved it fiercely.
A supremely powerful energy instantly spread out, grinding Chen Xiao in front of him into dust, and causing huge cracks to appear in the surrounding building structures.
If it were truly an illusion, any energy would have vanished into thin air with that single blow.
As expected, after this move, the surroundings returned to normal once more.
Zhang Chen stood still for a long while, confirming that it was now the real world and not an illusion, before coldly snorting:
"Insolent fool!"
Xila tilted her head, looking at Zhang Chen with admiration, sparks flashing in her eyes.
"Husband, I feel like you've returned to your youth!"
"This kind of spirit, this state, is truly captivating!"
Zhang Chen smiled helplessly and said:
"Only you, my silly girl, after watching me for over a hundred years, are still not tired of it!"
After speaking, Zhang Chen, thinking of the impending permanent separation, hugged Xila tighter.
Bang!
Suddenly, another familiar thudding sound.
A man fell from the window of a nearby building.
Similarly, a woman poked her head out to look down, confirmed that the man was dead, and then retracted her head.
"Husband?!"
Xila's eyes widened, and she exchanged an incredulous glance with Zhang Chen.
The latter was equally shocked!
This scene had repeated itself!
If the previous situation might have been an illusion.
But now that everything had been dispelled, how could someone release two illusions consecutively without their knowledge?!
Even the strongest ultimate beings in the apocalypse couldn't achieve this level.
And as survivors, apart from that Zhang Chen, her own strength was almost at the ceiling.
There couldn't be such a person!
Not a human, not an ultimate being, what could it be?!
"So next... that man is going to appear again?"
"Could it be his doing?!"
"But his strength couldn't even withstand my casual attack, how could he have such immense power?!"
Zhang Chen's mind was filled with surprise, and he rapidly ran through over a dozen similar situations he had encountered in his experience, but he dismissed each of them one by one.
Whoosh!
As if on cue, a portal opened again.
Chen Xiao jumped out of the portal and directly asked:
"What year is it?"
This time, Zhang Chen didn't rush to kill him, but slowly asked:
"Don't you remember me? We've met before!"
"You are..."
Chen Xiao looked at Zhang Chen's face for a while, then suddenly became alert and exclaimed:
"Ah, Brother Chen, it's you! Why are you so old? I almost didn't recognize you!"
"Is this the new sister-in-law? Hello, new sister-in-law!"
"Hiss..." Chen Xiao's words trailed off as he suddenly mused and said:
"Since you are here now... does that mean you didn't participate in the previous mobilization?"
"Oh no, if you didn't participate, then we have no chance of winning!"
"No wonder I transmigrated here, it seems I came for you, hurry up and come with me!"
Xila nervously blocked Zhang Chen, her face filled with vigilance as she asked:
"Go with you? To where?"
"Why are we trapped in an illusion and can't get out?!"
"Why do you want to harm us?"
Chen Xiao was taken aback by Xila's words, and said in surprise:
"Illusion? Brother Chen's strength would still be trapped by an illusion?"
"There's no such powerful person in this world!"
"As for me harming you..."
He paused here, his face filling with realization!
"I understand, you are trapped by time, right?!"
"Meaning, you killed me?!"
Hearing this, Zhang Chen and Xila exchanged glances, secretly preparing for battle.
Since the cards were on the table, let's do this!
