At this moment within the Celestial Gate, a white-robed scholar and a rugged, rough-faced middle-aged man were in a desperate flight. The latter exclaimed, "Wen Lao Er, you're unreliable!"
The white-robed scholar couldn't be bothered to reply. *Unreliable my foot. If it weren't for your utter foolishness, would I be so cornered?*
Thinking this, the scholar felt a surge of frustration. He had made preparations before entering the Celestial Gate, but this blockhead had barged in without any arrangements, effectively implicating Brother Xing! After so many years without any support, the scholar knew the situation was dire, and Brother Xing might very well be doomed!
"Stop spouting nonsense. There are no reinforcements here in the Celestial Gate. If my Heavenly Realm were still here, I wouldn't be so passive!" the scholar sighed again, his inner turmoil evident.
These two were none other than the ancient King Wen and King Wu. King Wu wasn't inherently this powerful; it was only through King Wen's assistance over the years that he had accumulated a fighting strength of twenty to nearly thirty units.
Yet, even with such power, they were still unable to rescue King Wen's sister, Wen Yu!
"Brother Xing is truly something. How many years has it been, and he still hasn't come to our aid!" King Wu sighed, and only when he saw no pursuers behind them did he and King Wen sit back-to-back on a large boulder.
King Wen chuckled, completely unwilling to speak. This fellow was truly an idiot.
But it was precisely because of this idiot that he had come to find him immediately to rescue his sister. Honestly, King Wen was touched, though he pitied Brother Xing.
Putting aside their lamentations, Li Er, at this moment, gazed at the desolate world beyond the gate with a faint smile. This 'Three Gates' was quite interesting, capable of sealing the past and isolating individuals from it. A peculiar concept.
Li Er, now at the Ancestral Venerable realm, frankly admitted that even if Cang, Qiong, and Mo Yan were combined, they wouldn't be a match for him. These individuals were at most at the ninth stage of the Ancestral God realm, and their comprehension of power was still significantly lacking.
At the same realm, Li Er could easily overwhelm them.
Li Er arrived at the Everlasting Mountain. He didn't know where he was; he had simply flown there. Upon scanning the area with his divine sense, he realized the situation: a young girl was imprisoned here, likely the Time Master, whom Su Yu was deeply concerned about.
Since his grandfather had stumbled upon this place, he decided to step in and bring the young girl Wen out. As for everything else, he would leave it to them.
With this thought, Li Er materialized before the gate that imprisoned Wen Yu. He extended his palm, and the gate dissipated completely. Wen Yu, looking on in shock at the sudden appearance of this person, caused the Everlasting Mountain to erupt in chaos. Fa immediately charged forward, but Li Er used his spatial divine abilities to isolate him.
Before the young girl could utter a word, Li Er flicked his hand, sending Wen Yu out of the Everlasting Mountain. Dazed, Wen Yu found herself outside! Overjoyed, she immediately searched for her brother, King Wen!
As for who had saved her, Wen Yu only glanced once before departing, as it was clear the person did not wish to speak with her further.
"Who are you!" Fa asked sternly.
Li Er ignored him and vanished. Fa looked around, and only after confirming Li Er's departure did he collapse onto the ground, wiping a cold sweat from his brow. This person was too terrifying. Thankfully, he hadn't killed him! As for Wen Yu escaping, that was fate. Trying to recapture her was impossible; they had used stratagem back then, but it was laughable to think she would fall for it now.
Li Er spent a few days exploring the Celestial Gate, gaining a general understanding, and then directly left this world. Su Yu's growth still required time. Once Su Yu matured, he would return to fetch him.
"Ah, Boss, you're finally here! We haven't seen you in ages!" Chen Chichi said, lounging with his legs crossed in the group chat.
"Not bad, kid, already a quasi-saint!" Li Er nodded.
Chen Chichi immediately became ingratiating. "Boss, it's all thanks to you sending me to that world. I'm doing quite well there now and have resources, so my cultivation has naturally been swift."
Li Er replied casually, then said, "Search for new recruits. Anyone who wants to join?"
Soon, Zhuge Liang and young Conan arrived!
Seeing Conan, Li Er was speechless. "You're still in elementary school? How many years has it been?"
Conan was also exasperated. The Heavenly Dao in his world had issues, and there was no spiritual energy, so he couldn't cultivate, which was very frustrating!
"Never mind, I'll take a look for you later," Li Er said, and seeing no one else arriving, he initiated the search.
Soon, two purple beams of light shot into the myriad realms.
"Ding, Xiong Ba has joined the Heavenly Dao Group!"
"Ding, Yue Buqun has joined the Heavenly Dao Group!"
Seeing these two, Li Er was utterly speechless. Chen Chichi, however, laughed, "This time it's interesting, two villains!"
Zhuge Liang asked with confusion, "Chichi, what do you mean?"
Chen Chichi replied, "In my previous world, there were novels about these two. Similar to your Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but these two are villains!"
Zhuge Liang understood. Afterward, Li Er directly uploaded "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer" and "The Stormy, Raging World of Xiong Ba."
"Newcomers, please read the group announcements and group files. My boss has uploaded your futures. You two can take a good look. Both are villains, and both are killed by their disciples. I believe you two should have something to say!" Chen Chichi immediately took on the role of newcomer mentor.
At this moment, Xiong Ba and Yue Buqun were bewildered, especially Yue Buqun. Standing on Mount Hua, he looked lost. Had he gone mad from practicing his arts? Why were strange voices echoing in his mind!
Xiong Ba was no better, equally bewildered!
Afterward, the two read the group description and files that Chen Chichi had mentioned and were instantly enlightened. They never imagined there were myriad realms, much less that they had immortal destinies!
"We are in the group space. Silently recite 'group space,' and you will arrive," Chen Chichi added.
Soon, Xiong Ba and Yue Buqun appeared in the group space. Yue Buqun clasped his hands and said, "I am Yue Buqun of the Hua Shan Sect, greetings to all seniors!"
Xiong Ba followed suit, cupping his hands, "I am Xiong Ba of the Tian Xia Association, greetings to all seniors!"
Zhuge Liang raised an eyebrow. Yue Buqun didn't seem like a villain. However, after reading "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer," Zhuge Liang fell silent for a moment before saying, "Yue Buqun can't entirely be called a villain. He merely wishes to bring glory to the Hua Shan Sect!"
Chen Chichi shrugged. Whether he brought glory or not, the definition was still villainous.
