Chapter 54 Newport City

After listening to Tang Shouyi's plea, Chen Ye did not give a direct and definite answer, but nodded to Tang Shouyi. Upon seeing this, Tang Shouyi showed a slightly happy smile.

Chen Ye then turned off the communication device and put the communicator away. After Chen Ye put it away, Wang Xiaoming, standing next to him, said with a slightly angry tone, "It's clearly their fault that this situation has arisen. Chen Ye, what do you think we should do next?"

After listening to Wang Xiaoming's words, Chen Ye looked up at the ever-expanding spatial rift and said helplessly, "I don't know either, but I think this matter should be brought to a perfect end. I can't say whose fault it is, but the situation is right in front of us, and it has seriously affected the concept of time, so someone needs to step forward and solve this problem."

"We have no one around to ask for help right now, so we have to solve this problem ourselves. That's what I'm thinking. If you two are unwilling to get involved, I won't force you."

After Chen Ye finished saying what he wanted to say, Wang Xiaoming lowered his head, as if pondering the answer Chen Ye had just given. Then Lin Su spoke first, saying, "Since you've decided to do this, I don't mean to stop you. I think I'll choose this option."

After Lin Su finished speaking, Wang Xiaoming raised his head again and looked at the two determined eyes. He sighed, "Since that's the case, let's, the three of us, go and solve this headache-inducing situation. Let's add a new chapter to our journey."

The three exchanged a smile and said nothing more. They then simultaneously looked up at the spatial rift.

Lin Su released flames, which condensed into a fireball, and placed it in front of Chen Ye. "Come on, Chen Ye, let's go!"

As Chen Ye used the concept definition again, the ball of flame in front of him transformed once more, becoming the giant fire dragon from before. It hovered in front of the three of them, and with a leap, Chen Ye stood on the dragon's back.

Chen Ye stood on top, looking down at Lin Su and Wang Xiaoming, "Let's go..."

After the three of them stood on the fire dragon, Chen Ye controlled the fire dragon and flew towards the crack.

The moment the three rode the fiery dragon through the rift, it was as if they were reliving the events of the past ten years.

In Wang Xiaoming and Lin Su's minds, most of what appeared were wonderful moments, as well as the pain of parting.

However, what Chen Ye experienced again was not a wonderful moment, but some memories that Chen Ye had never experienced before, or perhaps the most profound memories in Chen Ye's consciousness, but which had not been awakened.

In Chen Ye's memories, he saw those crimson eyes again, but this time he saw something else entirely.

But before Chen Ye could see it clearly, the image flashed by and disappeared into the deepest part of his consciousness.

When I opened my eyes again, the scene before me had changed; it was a capital city that looked exactly like the 'White Tower'.

As Chen Ye emerged from the spatial rift, he saw the surroundings of the capital city, but it was not as dilapidated as the original world.

The area surrounding the capital is a vibrant scene, and even the stone forests we saw earlier are now lush and green.

Chen Ye then controlled the fire dragon and landed in a place that was not easily noticed.

As Chen Ye stepped onto this vibrant land, he couldn't help but bend down and reach out to touch the ground beneath his feet. The moment his fingers touched it, he could feel the dampness of the soil.

Comparing this world with the world we came from, it's impossible to express in words what exactly happened back then to make the world look the way it did.

Looking at the same scenery, Wang Xiaoming asked, "Since we came in, we haven't seen Lan Tu again, and there hasn't been any tragic situation here."

At this moment, Lin Su also said nervously, "Yes, nothing strange has happened since we arrived here."

Under these circumstances, the two couldn't help but start to worry, and a strange thought began to form in their minds.

"Could it be that the world we traveled to is not the same world as the world the blueprint came from?!"

This idea arose in the minds of Lin Su and Wang Xiaoming, and under these circumstances, only Chen Ye remained relatively calm.

Chen Ye stood up again and began to look around at the scenery, although the scene here had changed a lot.

However, in Chen Ye's mind, there might be uncertainties in each time he traveled through the spatial rift. In other words, the time when Chen Ye and the other two traveled through the rift might be much earlier than the time when the blueprint was drawn.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Ye looked up at the distant capital city built on high ground.

Wang Xiaoming followed Chen Ye's gaze and then said, "Why don't we go and take a look inside the capital?"

After Wang Xiaoming finished speaking, Chen Ye immediately stopped him from having this idea, because the three of them did not belong to this time and space. If the people of this world discovered their existence, it would likely add more uncertainties to the future.

After Chen Ye finished explaining, Wang Xiaoming finally realized what had happened and apologized to Chen Ye, saying, "I didn't think things through. I'm sorry."

Chen Ye didn't blame Wang Xiaoming; he simply waved his hand and said, "It's alright."

Lin Su then walked over to Chen Ye and asked, "What should we do next?"

"Wait," Chen Ye said. "Given the current timeline, we cannot pinpoint the exact time, nor do we know when Tang Shouyi's 'elimination plan' began to be implemented."

Lin Su looked at what Chen Ye said and was somewhat puzzled. Just after Chen Ye finished speaking, he saw a group of people appear in the distance.

Chen Ye hurriedly shouted, "Quick, hide! We can't let them find us!"

After Chen Ye shouted, the three immediately concealed themselves. Chen Ye was shocked to discover that the person leading this group was none other than Lan Tu!

Chen Ye told Lin Su and the other person about what he had discovered. When they heard this, they were surprised. "If that's the case, then perhaps my timing was accurate. The reason why Lan Tu returned to this point in time might not be entirely because he wanted revenge; perhaps he also wanted to save his family."

After Chen Ye finished explaining his idea, the other two agreed with it and nodded in agreement.

"Chen Ye might be right," Lin Su said. "If the goal is simply revenge, there's no need to shut down time travel. We could simply go back to our original world, kill the participants in the elimination plan, and get our revenge. The whole elaborate time travel to return to this point in time and save our families might actually be the real blueprint we're trying to achieve."

Following Lin Su's words, Chen Ye continued, "I don't know if the blueprints that just passed by us belong to people from this time and space, but I think that if we follow them, we might find unexpected answers."

After Chen Ye explained his plan, Lin Su and Wang Xiaoming immediately nodded in approval.

Then, under the release of Lin Su's flames, Chen Ye redefined the concept and rode the fire dragon into the sky. The three of them flew very high, being careful not to get too close to the pair of people and horses, so as not to be discovered.

And so they cautiously followed behind the group led by Lan Tu. Just then, Wang Xiaoming, sitting on the back of the giant dragon, suddenly stood up and excitedly pointed ahead.

Seeing Wang Xiaoming too excited to speak, Lin Su also stood up and looked in the direction Wang Xiaoming was pointing. When she saw where Wang Xiaoming was pointing, Lin Su's eyes widened in disbelief.

What Wang Xiaoming and Lin Su saw was a city surrounded by a lake.

At this moment, Chen Ye also stood up and looked at the scene that had shocked Lin Su and the other person. However, when Chen Ye saw the city, he felt more fear and panic.

The city's defenses that Chen Ye saw were all too familiar. Without thinking, Chen Ye blurted out, "A black lake."

When Wang Xiaoming heard Chen Ye mention the black lake, he walked up to Chen Ye and mocked, "Chen Ye, are you colorblind? The moat is clearly blue, how can you say it's black?"

Coming to his senses, Chen Ye realized that Wang Xiaoming had overheard his unintentional words. Lin Su, meanwhile, asked with a puzzled look, "What are you two talking about?"

Just as Wang Xiaoming was about to tell Chen Ye that the moat surrounding the city was black, Chen Ye stopped him, preventing Wang Xiaoming from saying that.

"It's nothing, it's nothing," Chen Ye said. "We'll be there soon. Let's prepare to land in the vicinity."

As Chen Ye released his grip, Wang Xiaoming was finally able to exhale the breath he had been holding for so long. Wang Xiaoming said angrily, "I almost suffocated."

At this moment, Chen Ye couldn't help but look back and found that the journey was extremely long, and he could no longer see the capital city 'White Tower' disappearing behind him.

After Chen Ye and his companions landed safely again, they proceeded along the main road leading to the city. When they arrived at the city gate, they were astonished to see three words written on it!

"New Port City!"
