Time Travel: Did My Sister-in-Law Get Slapped in the Face Today?

If the Zimu Clan had been more resolute back then, and had fought to the death to protect Li Lan when Bai Qingyan arrived, then today, the Zimu Clan might also have had the opportunity to knock on the gate of immortality.

Now it's too late to regret!

Even the entire Zimu clan had to live in fear, terrified of Li Lan's wrath!

"Report——"

Just then, a family elder rushed in, his voice trembling, "Young Master Wu Heng, Princess Dongya... have arrived!"

Upon hearing this, Zi Muqi felt dizzy and almost fainted.

It's over, completely over...

He felt weak all over and could barely stand up!

"Run! Run quickly! Let as many family members as possible escape... Jie'er, you go too!"

His voice was trembling.

"No!"

But at this moment, Zi Mujie showed rare composure. She gritted her teeth and said, "Father, if we run away, it will really be the end... Every clansman who runs away will be caught and killed!"

"What should we do then?" Zi Muqi was completely at a loss.

"Kneel down and plead guilty with a bundle of thorns on your back!"

Zi Mujie said, "Also, quickly get Xin Zhiping and Wang Daniu out of the prison. They have a past relationship with Young Master Wu Heng. If they are willing to plead for them, perhaps we still have a glimmer of hope..."

—After Li Lan left, Xin Zhiping and Wang Daniu, who were close to him, were imprisoned.

"Yes, quick, release them..."

Zi Muqi was also anxious: "Summon everyone in the family, kneel down, and beg for forgiveness!"

……

Shortly after.

Li Lan and Dongya Xiaoxiao joined the Zimu Clan.

Upon seeing the scene before them, Dongya Xiaoxiao couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

The Dongya clan, led by clan chief Zimuqi, along with all the elders and male members, all removed their upper garments, carried thorny branches on their backs, and knelt on the ground.

All the women knelt on one side, their knees resting on a board of nails!

The man carried thorns to apologize, while the woman knelt on nails to beg for forgiveness!

Only two people stood in front of the crowd.

It was none other than Wang Daniu and Xin Zhiping.

Wang Daniu had traveled with Li Lan to join the Purple Wood Clan. Because Li Lan had helped him along the way, he always felt grateful to her.

Xin Zhiping was someone Li Lan met when she worked as a handyman in the Sutra Pavilion. Although she was a handyman, she was a nice person and took good care of her companions.

Both of them were utterly shocked and still somewhat bewildered.

They were originally imprisoned, but suddenly they were asked to leave...

"My clan is guilty, please punish us, Young Master Wu Heng!"

Zi Muqi spoke heavily!

"My people are guilty!"

Everyone exclaimed.

Wang Daniu and Xin Zhiping were both shocked...

"Brother Wu Heng, you're that amazing?"

Wang Daniu's eyes were filled with disbelief.

Xin Zhiping was even more astonished. Just what level had Li Lan reached?

Not long after their separation, Li Lan had already gained the power to make the Zi Mu clan kneel down and beg for forgiveness.

Li Lan walked over calmly, smiled at the two of them, and said, "Long time no see, how have you been?"

Upon seeing this, Wang Daniu became instantly excited and exclaimed, "Brother Heng, it really is you!"

He didn't care about anything else, he ran over and gave Li Lan a big hug.

Xin Zhiping also came over, her expression complicated, but she bowed and said, "Greetings, Lord Wu Heng."

She guessed that Li Lan must be of extraordinary status now.

"Sister Xin, there's no need for that,"

Li Lan helped her up.

"I have not come here to demand an explanation, but merely to visit the library."

Li Lan spoke calmly, expressing no hatred towards the Zimu clan, nor any desire for revenge.

The decision Zi Muqi made back then was nothing more than to protect his family.

Moreover, such a small clan is nothing in his eyes.

He will wipe out the Star Shooter Clan because they truly annoy him.

But the Purple Wood Clan is no different from a roadside blade of grass.

Upon hearing this, Zi Muqi and the others were all extremely excited.

"Thank you very much, Lord Wu Heng!"

Zi Muqi said, "Someone, immediately open the Sutra Repository for Lord Wu Heng and Princess Dongya to visit—"

Immediately, Xin Zhiping led the way, with Li Lan and Dongya Xiaoxiao following behind her, and Wang Daniu also happily traveling with them.

"Wang Daniu really made the right choice in following him..."

Among the crowd, a man seemed somewhat dazed and envious, yet could only sigh.

Song Ziwen was one of the people who joined the Zimu family with Li Lan. He came from a small family and quickly forgot Li Lan's kindness after joining the family.

Beside him, a young girl's beautiful eyes held a complex mix of emotions.

Lanxin.

Among the four who initially joined the Purple Wood Clan, she possessed the best aptitude. At that time, she even believed that she was about to soar to great heights and have a brighter future. Therefore, even though she developed feelings for Li Lan, she actively suppressed them.

She even deliberately distanced herself from Li Lan.

But now, kneeling on the ground, feeling the pain from the nails in her kneecaps, she suddenly realized that Wu Heng and they were never on the same level...

We only traveled together for a short distance.

If I hadn't been so self-centered and selfish back then... perhaps now, I could at least be following in Wang Daniu's footsteps?

Regret... but it's too late now!

……

Shortly after.

Led by Xin Zhiping, Li Lan and Dongya Xiaoxiao went directly to the fourth floor of the Sutra Repository!

There was also a demon here, which Li Lan had not yet conquered. It was from this demon that Li Lan first learned some information about the primordial world.

He came here because of this demon!
