4343 Your Wife Has Encountered a Problem

The old woman was the Revered Elder of a heavyweight supreme-rank sect in Profound Energy Land. She also had followers, and one of them stunned Duan Ling Tian.

Duan Ling Tian had met that person before. She was the beautiful woman next to Duan Qiao Yu, a rudimentary Emperor of Gods. He met her along with Duan Qiao Yu a thousand years later.

Duan Ling Tian could not help but smile when he recalled how everyone thought she was Lord of Gods when she made a move during their first meeting.

The woman was Yu Qiu Xuan. He had met her at auction in the Profound Energy Land before he joined the Hidden Fog Sect. At that time, he had found her mysterious and powerful. After all, she could have crushed him to death with just a finger at that time.

However, things were different now.

"Young Master Duan."

After Yu Qiu Xuan learned that Duan Ling Tian was more powerful than the old woman she followed despite only being an intermediate Supreme God, she became very respectful. She did not even dare to look Duan Ling Tian in the eyes.

'No wonder…'

At this time, Duan Ling Tian finally realized why Yu Qiu Xuan had addressed him respectfully as Young Master Duan at that auction 1,000 years later. As it turned out, she had met him 1,000 years ago when he was an intermediate Supreme God.

Needless to say, at this time, Yu Qiu Xuan was still unaware that she would meet him after 1,000 years when he was not so strong.

…

After staying with Duan Qiao Yu for a few more days, Duan Ling Tian was ready to leave.

"Brother, will you come back?" Duan Qiao Yu asked, filled with reluctance. Her cheeks were already wet with tears, making her look even more pitiful.

"Silly girl," Duan Ling Tian said as he smiled warmly and patted her head, "Didn't I say before? It won't be long before we meet again. I can't come back. In the future, when you grow up, you'll be able to meet me… I've even told you the location. Did you forget it?"

"No," Duan Qiao Yu said, still reluctant, "I-I just think that 1,000 years are too long…"

"It's not long," Duan Ling Tian smiled and said, "Cultivate well. I hope that when I see you again, you'll already be an Emperor of Gods or even a Supreme God."

Although the young Duan Qiao Yu was reluctant, Duan Ling Tian knew that he could no longer stay by her side and negatively affect her. Due to him coming from the future, his cultivation would not rise in the past. Not only that, but the cultivation of the people around him in the past would not improve as well. He was a disaster to those close to him in the past since cultivation was useless in his vicinity.

'I can't even cultivate here… Why was I sent back in time? To comprehend the law of time?'

At this time, Duan Ling Tian also vaguely realized something. Apart from the law of time, he could not cultivate and comprehend the other laws. There was no restriction on the law of time at all. Most importantly, with just half the effort, he could obtain twice the result. This was somewhat similar to when he comprehended the law in the chamber of law.

As such, after being separated from Duan Qiao Yu and the others, Duan Ling Tian found a place and began to comprehend the law of time. He only went out twice, and both times he went to the Xia clan in the Divine Offering Land. Unfortunately, Ke'er, who was Xia Ning Xue now, was still in closed-door cultivation.

'Perhaps, she'll only come out when I was about to be born… Forget it. I won't see her anymore. So what if I see her? She's not Ke'er now…'

Xia Ning Xue, the Eldest Miss of the Xia clan, was not yet Ke'er. She did not have Ke'er's memories or experience. For the time being, she had nothing to do with Duan Ling Tian at all.

After making up his mind, Duan Ling Tian focused on comprehending the law of time, losing track of time.

During the process, he found that his speed of comprehending the law of time was extremely fast. It was much faster than when he used the Supreme Powerhouse Divinity to comprehend the law of space.

"How did that supreme god do it? How did he send me, an intermediate Supreme God, so far back in time? It's truly unbelievable. My speed of comprehending the law of time here is unbelievably fast…"

Duan Ling Tian had experienced many things in his life, but he was still shocked at his speed of comprehending the law of time. He had gained a lot from his time here.

…

"My law of time should be able to faintly manifest the phenomenon that shines for a hundred thousand miles now, right?"

…

Not long after…

"My law of time is able to manifest the phenomenon that shines for a million miles now…"

…

After some time passed…

"Currently, I feel like my law of time is on par with my law of space! If I continue to comprehend it here, will it surpass my law of space?"

Duan Ling Tian was naturally excited when he thought about this.

Alas, it did not take long for reality to hit him.

Not long after he continued to cultivate, he felt an irresistible force shrouding him. In the next moment, he lost consciousness.

Just before he lost consciousness, a thought appeared in his mind.

'Am I going back?'

Naturally, he meant going back to the future.

Duan Ling Tian had long speculated that every minute he spent in the past would take a toll on the supreme powerhouse who sent him here. It would be strange if there was no price for sending someone back to the past.

While Duan Ling Tian was being sent back to the future, he was unaware that his father had just been born not long ago in the Saint Province Realm, a mundane realm. His father, Duan Ru Feng, was only three years old. He was just a naughty little boy running around butt-naked with snot running down his nose at this time. How could he have known that he would have a very outstanding son in the future?

…

When Duan Ling Tian regained consciousness, he found that he had returned to where he was near the divine fountain.

However, this time, he saw a supreme powerhouse hovering in the air.

Duan Ling Tian was in a trance at this moment. It felt as though just a moment had passed even though he spent quite a long time in the past.

In order to verify that he did not imagine his experience, he quickly checked his law of time.

"My law of time…"

Duan Ling Tian soon discovered that his level of comprehension of the law of time was indeed on par with his law of time. He truly did return to the past and comprehended his law of time there.

'What a pity! If I had more time in the past, my law of time would've surpassed my law of space!'

After sighing regretfully in his heart, Duan Ling Tian regained his senses and chided himself for being greedy. After all, the opportunity that he had been given was something most people could only dream about.

'I stayed for so many years in the past, but only a moment had passed in the present…'

Duan Ling Tian reached out for the Supreme Powerhouse Divinity that contained the law of time. He felt that a lifetime had passed, but at the same time, it also felt that only a moment had passed.

After putting away the Supreme Powerhouse Divinity, he turned to face the supreme powerhouse and bowed. "Thank you, senior."

He knew very well that the other party must have paid a heavy price to send him back to the past.

"Mm… When you cultivate in the future, it's best for your law of time and law of space to progress concurrently. This will greatly help you to become a supreme powerhouse."

The supreme powerhouse's voice reverberated through the entire space when he spoke.

After a moment, the supreme powerhouse suddenly said, "Your wife has encountered a problem in the Divine Offering Land's Xia clan. As such, I'll send you there."

Duan Ling Tian was excited when he heard that his law of space and law of time could progress concurrently even if it would take more time and effort from him. Moreover, he now possessed the Supreme Powerhouse Divinities that contained the law of space and the law of time respectively. His speed of comprehension from the divinities alone far exceeded that of normal people.

However, when Duan Ling Tian heard the supreme powerhouse's final words, he froze immediately.

"Ke'er!"

Duan Ling Tian's expression changed drastically when he recovered his senses.

Following that, he felt a monstrous force shrouding him as the void in front of him twisted violently, causing his vision to turn blurry.

When he regained his vision, he found himself standing in front of a brand-new building. Although it was new, he could tell at a glance that it was the Xia clan's estate. It resembled what he had seen from a distance in the past.

Duan Ling Tian did not waste time and crossed the barrier of the Xia clan's estate.

Meanwhile, the members of the Xia clan patrolling the estate did not discover Duan Ling Tian's presence until a few moments after he appeared.

In the past, Duan Ling Tian would not have dared to enter the Xia clan so rashly. However, the only thing on his mind now was to save his wife, Ke'er.

At this time, the members of the Xia clan surrounded Duan Ling Tian.

"Who are you?"

"Why did you trespass into our Xia clan's estate?"
