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

……

now.

Sun and Moon Sect.

Inside a hall, Shangguan Xiaoxiao finished reading the secret report that had come from the Central Continent.

"Are you really going to do this?"

Cao Yueshu watched her retreating figure, a look of pity on his face: "Aren't you going to think it over again, or hesitate a bit more?"

Shangguan Xiaoxiao simply smiled and said, "My heart is unbreakable."

Cao Yueshu said, "But have you thought about Li Lan? If he knew you were doing this, would he agree?"

Shangguan Xiaoxiao shook her head: "What I decide to do is my own business. What does it have to do with him?"

"He faced so much alone. What was he thinking when he went to confront the Mingzun Demon Soul all by himself? What was he thinking when he led the Yuan Clan into the Thousand Rivers Land? What was he thinking when he ventured into the deepest part of the Ten Thousand Mountain Range?"

"He fought against the Li clan and severed the divine source for the sake of the overall war effort. He did not hesitate to expose himself and even went into the gray fog alone. He single-handedly supported this crumbling immortal realm. He can be as steadfast as a mountain and as silent as the sea. Why can't I be as steadfast as a rock just once?"

After a long, long time, she whispered again, "Besides, even if he knew I would sacrifice myself, he wouldn't be affected at all... right?"

"After all, he had no feelings for me, and my admiration for him was just wishful thinking on my part."

"Right?"

It seems to be answering, yet it also seems to be asking a question; there is no answer.

Finally, she closed her eyes and walked toward the ancient coffin in front of her.

……

"The Primordial Demon Ape Clan has returned to the Primordial Demon Abyss!"

"Is that their interdimensional warship? It's truly astonishing, worthy of being called a Celestial Venerable's artifact!"

"Ancient Divine Ape, please accept my clan's holy maiden as your servant; she is extremely fertile!"

On this day, the Primordial Demon Ape Clan and the Taiyi Holy Land jointly traveled to the Primordial Demon Ape.

Along the way, many monks were watching.

Outside the Demon Abyss, when the warships of the Primordial Demon Ape Clan arrived, representatives from countless forces also came, kneeling and shouting, hoping to send their daughters away.

“Our clan has already chosen its concubines; we need no one else.”

An official from the Primordial Demon Ape Clan said coldly, then waved his hand, and bridges formed by condensed power led directly into the Demon Abyss.

Yuan Shentong went ahead first, followed closely by Yuan Jiu, Yuan Gu, and other younger generation demonic apes, who were holding Zhu Ling and other holy maidens by the waist.

Zhu Ling and the other women glanced casually at the countless fellow women kneeling on the ground, their eyes filled with smugness.

They have already won this competition.

The demonic cloud slowly sank, and after a long time, they finally reached the bottom of the Demon Abyss.

"It's been thousands of years!"

"Thousands of years have passed, and our ancestral land remains unchanged!"

"We're finally back!"

Even though the Primordial Demon Ape clan is inherently violent, many people were quite moved at this moment.

"Hmm? Why aren't Black Twelve and the others here to greet us?"

At this moment, an old ape frowned and spoke.

Black Twelve is the black-haired giant ape responsible for guarding the Demon Abyss.

"Didn't he send a message saying that he had prepared many trained women here?"

Yuan Jiu was puzzled. Why was this place so quiet and dead, without a trace at all?

"wrong!"

Suddenly, the clan chief Yuan Shentong's expression darkened, and he said, "The situation has changed, retreat—"

He was a sage, and he knew this place very well. In just a moment, he discovered that the earth's veins and energy had changed in this seemingly unchanged homeland.

Someone must have tampered with it!

He knew all too well just how terrifying this great formation was. It was created by the ancestors of the ancient demonic apes throughout the ages. Even if a Great Sage came, he might not be able to withstand it. It could even kill an Immortal Venerable!

So, without even thinking, he decided to leave!

But it is at this very moment—

Boom!

A deafening roar erupted suddenly, and at the same time, countless streams of energy surged towards the group, directly suppressing them.

……

Outside the Primordial Demon Abyss.

"Alas, we were too late."

"There's no chance now. Let's wait for the next forbidden clan to arrive!"

"The Taiyi Holy Land can now rest easy."

The kneeling monks finally rose, filled with disappointment, and prepared to leave.
