Chapter 545: Chapter 430: Little Brother Wu, right?

"How are things?"

Shen Xiujun asked.

The Time Corpse’s Parasite was reciting a long and obscure spell and did not respond immediately.

The wind blew.

Those drifting leaves and gravel swept across the street.

However, as they approached the Time Corpse’s Parasite, they all hung suspended in midair, motionless.

— It was as if someone had pressed the pause button, freezing them at a certain moment.

Shen Xiujun’s expression turned solemn.

She stood quietly by, no longer speaking.

Wu Xiaode, with his arms crossed, stood not far away, thought for a moment, then decided to move closer, coming right next to Shen Xiujun, standing together with her.

After all, they hadn’t noticed him.

It might be better to stay close, that way, he wouldn’t miss anything they said.

After a while,

The Parasite of the Time Corpse finally stopped the spell.

"Do you have a result?" Shen Xiujun asked.

"Yes!" said the Parasite of the Time Corpse.

Wu Xiaode and Shen Xiujun both showed curiosity, looking at it together.

The other explained:

"You see, time bifurcates here, turning into two parallel worlds. One reaches the End and the other returns to this moment, which you have discovered."

It spoke softly: "Through the power of time, let us see that moment."

No sooner had it spoken than the Void opened in front of it, revealing another scene.

Wu Xiaode looked at the scene and couldn’t help but feel his heart leap—

It had indeed found it!

In the street on the other side of the Void, another Shen Xiujun was enveloped in dark light, pressing her hand against a huge wall of Law formed by countless Destruction Runes appearing out of nowhere.

She opened her mouth, as if saying something, but stood motionless.

The Parasite of the Time Corpse said:

"This is you, a moment later—however, this parallel world has been abandoned, and you have returned to the moment when the task began, facing the battle once again."

"My enemy has changed," Shen Xiujun said.

"So your task can’t be completed?" the Parasite of the Time Corpse asked.

"I can only be a human in this task, while the opposite side has changed to a man with defects in human emotions,"

Shen Xiujun said.

Wu Xiaode, listening on the side, couldn’t help but think.

Zhao Junyu...

With emotional defects?

Not really, he just took a hit, had an epiphany, and awakened a power unique to him.

He is a Mind Mage.

If one day he could reach level 200 and undergo a specialized career advancement, he might create a new Spiritual class.

— Careers in Purgatory and on the Eternal Night Tower are increasing daily.

Lost in thought, Wu Xiaode heard the creature speak again:

"What’s most important now is for you to win this task."

"Once you win, you can revert to your true form and then it will be easy to retrieve the swapped human,"

Shen Xiujun, hearing this, nodded and said: "That’s right, as a human woman now, indeed many powers are unusable."

"Then, let me lend you a hand," said the Parasite of the Time Corpse.

Shen Xiujun, invigorated, quickly said:

"My task does not allow other Demon Level beings to intervene—how do you plan to help me win this task?"

"If I openly help you, that indeed won’t do, so don’t resist, just wait for me to parasitize you."

"Okay!"

As Shen Xiujun consented, the creature lightly leaped, perching on her back, instantly turning into dark tendrils.

"Mmm mmm—"

Shen Xiujun suddenly let out a painful moan.

The tendrils melded directly into her flesh, becoming part of "her."

An invisible aura spread from her body.

This aura was different from before, exuding an even more evil and sinister air.

Shen Xiujun gasped a few times, then stood up straight again, uttering a deep sound:

"Alright, let’s finish this task."

After saying this, her voice grew light: "Thank you for your assistance."

She added: "Don’t mention it, a Demon cannot be defeated, this concerns the corpse I guard and is linked to my very survival."

"Yes, your honor," she said again.

Their conversation ended.

Shen Xiujun moved toward the bar.

Wu Xiaode tensed and quickly followed.

He was already struggling to handle a Feeding Demon Master, hardly able to get by.

Now there was also a Parasite of the Time Corpse.

— What about Zhao Junyu?

While he pondered, Shen Xiujun had already pushed open the bar door.

Bang!

As the sound echoed, Zhao Junyu could be seen sitting at the bar, quietly sipping a drink.

He appeared calm and serene, and even Shen Xiujun’s forceful entry could not draw his attention.

Shen Xiujun walked directly to his side, sat down on another chair, and quietly stared at him.

"What are you looking at?"

Zhao Junyu, holding his drink, asked without raising his head.

Shen Xiujun suddenly smiled and said softly, "I am looking at your past."

"My past? You mean, you can see my past?" Zhao Junyu asked.

Shen Xiujun’s voice suddenly turned hoarse:

"It turns out you were once a boy who loved romance—"

"Luckily, I have the ability to make you forget everything and become the you of a certain past moment."

"So, let’s try getting along," she said.

She gently reached out her hand, and before Zhao Junyu could react, she directly touched his shoulder.
