Traveler of the River of Time and Space

Chapter 27: Dream of Remnants


She's grown stronger again!

Qing Ji was already a formidable Great Demon, and in the Dream World, Su Ziyu had witnessed her abilities. Qing Ji's flames seemed to use a person's emotions as fuel, inflicting extreme pain while burning away a person's entire life force. Now, Qing Ji was clearly even stronger than before; her power, agility, speed, and those unique flames were all a step above what they had been in the True Dream Realm.

What made Su Ziyu most uneasy was her attire. He remembered telling Qing Ji the story of the White Snake in the True Dream Realm, and the protagonist Bai Suzhen dressed in a similar manner.

What was that True Dream Realm after all?

Was it not just a simple dream?

Wasn't he the sole protagonist of the dream?

Why did Qing Ji appear as she did at the end of the dream? Su Ziyu remembered clearly that at the dream's conclusion, Qing Ji seemed to have let go of her hatred, her entire azure snake scales turning white, and she burned to ashes alongside An Zhen's corpse in the flames.

What exactly did the Baku do?

Why did that dream affect Qing Ji in reality?

Was she also inside the dream?

Su Ziyu had so many doubts in his heart, but right now he couldn't find the Baku at all, and he had no idea where it had gone.

A series of shrill screams echoed.

In just a moment, the Flying Yaksha that ambushed Su Ziyu was reduced to a heap of charcoal, but Qing Ji still seemed unsatisfied. Her figure hovered in mid-air, her gaze landing on other Flying Yakshas, and her cold stare caused the nearby Flying Head Yakshas to turn pale with fright, each fleeing, wanting to distance themselves from this terrifying Great Demon.

"Hmph! Trying to run?" Qing Ji's pale palm revealed threads of dark blue flame flowers, exploding like fireworks, causing Flying Yakshas to plummet from Heaven one by one.

The screams were relentless, making countless people feel their scalps tingle!

Fire of the Seven Emotions.

Qing Ji's flames were exceptionally unique; none of the Flying Yakshas could last even half a minute. In just the time it took to drink a cup of tea, the nearby Flying Yakshas were completely wiped out.

"Gained 1 Source Power Value!"

"Gained 1 Source Power Value!"

"Gained 2 Source Power Value!"

Su Ziyu stood below, watching in awe and feeling very tense. He stood on the rooftop, unsure whether to sneak away quietly or go up to help. By the time he snapped back to reality, he had amassed a total of 8 Source Power Values. Except for a few Flying Yakshas who had fled quickly, almost all the others had been incinerated by Qing Ji.

"Husband." Qing Ji descended from the sky, and as she saw Su Ziyu's gaze fall upon her long white snake tail, her expression seemed a bit shy and nervous. When she turned around and back again, her lower body had transformed into a pair of woman's legs, slender and hidden beneath a long skirt with white cloud patterns, her feet clad in white socks and geta sandals.

"All the demons bullying you have been taken care of by Qing Ji." Qing Ji held up that White Paper Umbrella, her gaze incredibly gentle, her voice a bit timid.

At this moment, she was completely different from the cold, murderous figure she had been at the start, leaving nearby surviving Yin Yang Masters utterly dumbfounded. They originally thought Lord Abe no Seimei was ruthless enough, but there was someone even more ruthless here.

Qing Ji's allure and aura thoroughly overshadowed the other two female demons.

What should I do?

Should I run away?

Can I even get away?

What if she goes into a Rage? Could I defeat her? What if I can't?

Waiting online!

This is driving me crazy!

Su Ziyu had been burned to death by Qing Ji over ten times in the Dream World, so he knew exactly how troublesome Qing Ji could be. Almost every time Su Ziyu wanted to escape, it ended in fiery cremation. Although Qing Ji now looked like she did at the end of the dream, Su Ziyu still didn't dare to try anything rashly.

What if she Raged again?

Qing Ji's flames were inextinguishable; once they touched you, it was fatal or enormously injurious, and he didn't want to experience that again in reality.

"You really have mistaken me for someone else!" Su Ziyu's voice was exceptionally sincere, trying to make his gaze equally earnest.

"It doesn't matter if Husband doesn't remember. As long as I remember, that's enough." After transforming into the White Snake, Qing Ji's temper seemed to have improved. She maintained a gentle, virtuous demeanor, taking small, demure steps to approach Su Ziyu, curtsying as she said, "This place isn't very safe. Please stay by my side."

"I will protect you with my life if I have to!"

You're the most dangerous Great Demon here!

Didn't you see all the Yakshas running away? Even Snow Woman and Maple Demon Maiden are looking at you with fear, not daring to come any closer!

Are you playing innocent?

Su Ziyu saw Qing Ji cautiously take out a fan, which, when opened, revealed a poem written on it—'In the world, how can one find a way to satisfy both Buddha and one's beloved'.

This poem instantly reminded him of everything that happened in the True Dream Realm, and Su Ziyu's expression changed slightly, showing a hint of complex emotions. This momentary change was immediately caught by Qing Ji, whose expression reflected a moment of joy, unease, and guilt, her head lowered as if she had done something wrong, timidly saying, "Husband must still remember after all."
