Yes, Madam Prime Minister

Liz tore off a crab leg. "I think you're the one dreaming. You can only give birth."

Come out some black idiot like you.

"That's still better than you. You red-haired country bumpkin, your child will definitely be an incredibly rude and ugly woman or man," Louise cursed.

"Still better than an idiot black devil."

Chapter 1271 The Time Traveler, Past Events Like Smoke, It's Not Like That

While Ronan and Garcia were training for the final battle, in another parallel universe...

Seris, Mount Tai, Fengchan Terrace.

Because this world also has a First Emperor, there is the Fengshan ceremony. Because this world does not have the one who defeated the Song Dynasty, Emperor Taizu of Wei, Zhao Shu, went to Mount Tai to perform the Fengshan ceremony after regaining control of the Western Regions, conquering the northern grasslands, and crossing the sea to conquer Dongying.

Having lived for over four hundred years, Zhao Shu had come here countless times, and was overwhelmed with emotion, lost in memories.

Before his death, he finally reached the seventh level, pushing his time manipulation abilities to an unparalleled degree. As he entered old age and began the countdown to the end of his life, he subtly reached a realm above the seventh level.

The thought of not wanting to die became even stronger at this moment.

In the final moments of his life, he made the riskiest attempt.

He succeeded.

However, he did not expect that while he succeeded, he would unexpectedly arrive in another parallel universe, lose his power, and regress to the level of a child with only extraordinary talent.

It took thirty years to finally recover to the seventh level.

He thought he would soon be able to reach the threshold of the eighth level again, but then he was surprised to realize that he was wrong.

Not only did he not know how to reach the eighth level, he could no longer even see a trace of the eighth level. Everything seemed to be just a hallucination he had before he was on the verge of death.

He began traveling the world, enjoying life, but at the same time, he did not completely give up.

And so, a century passed in the blink of an eye. He grew tired of it all. He had tried everything he thought could bring him satisfaction. He was desperate and still couldn't see a glimmer of hope.

Two thoughts welled up in his mind: to destroy the world or to commit suicide.

In fact, there is not much difference between the two. Although he has time abilities that surpass all other extraordinary abilities, he is still only a seventh-level being. If he were to become an enemy of the world, he would probably destroy himself, which would be no different from suicide.

But at that moment, he suddenly felt a slight tremor in the entire space-time. Although it was only for a moment, he was absolutely certain that it was not an illusion.

Although he didn't know what was going on, his hope was rekindled.

Anything is possible as long as there are variables.

So he began to sleep and wake up intermittently.

Over a hundred years ago, a major event finally occurred: the entire world's supernatural power system collapsed. In an instant, the power of all superhumans was almost constantly diminishing with each use, and natural recovery was virtually nonexistent. Moreover, once supernatural power was used at a high intensity, a person's mental state would become unstable, and in severe cases, it could lead to mental illness.

The voluntary contraction and self-sacrifice by the superhumans did not bring peace; instead, it became the fuse for war.

A civil war broke out in Seres. In this timeline without Ronan, after more than twenty years of civil war, the more populous, economically stronger, and militarily more advanced Jiangnan ultimately emerged victorious, and David ushered in a "restoration."

Almost simultaneously, someone invented a magical device that could be transplanted or externalized, allowing the normal operation of supernatural powers. Of course, it was also at this time that Zhao Shu finally confirmed that variable.

This variable was a Frenchman named Ronan.

It was at this time that the Extraordinary System was restored.

In fact, this was Zhao Shu's misconception. The truth is that, thanks to the years of efforts of several artificial intelligence robots in this world, namely Lavini, Wen Jin, and Kate, this extraordinary system in the parallel universe, although not perfectly repaired, can at least continue to operate normally.

Another century has passed in the blink of an eye. Now...

"I've finally found you." The voice arrived before the person.

Immediately afterwards, three foreign women appeared in Zhao Shu's line of sight: one blonde, one white-haired, and one black-haired.

Zhao Shu knew their names.

Zhao Shu looked down at him and said, "I think you know that I still have my abilities. Since that's the case, you should understand that it's not that you found me, but that I made you see me."

His most outstanding ability regarding time is the ability to foresee the future. He doesn't want to be found, so no one can find him.

"Since that's the case, then there's no need for further words. Come with us."

Elena said.

Zhao Shu smiled briefly, "Do you think you have the right to say that?"

“I think so,” Agustina said. “After all, you’re only a seventh-tier being. What, do you think time manipulation is invincible? The output and calculation power of superhumans are limited. So what if you can see the past and future, rewind, stop, fast forward, and jump through time? The range and length are not infinite.”

Zhao Shu stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze shifting slightly downwards to look at Agustina. "I've heard that sentence many times before."

“May I ask you a question? Have you ever been defeated by me?” Agustina asked.

“Me too,” Elena asked.

Before they fell into slumber, they were just one step away from the seventh rank. After arriving in this parallel universe, they successfully achieved the seventh rank and then received special enhancements, surpassing ordinary seventh-rank individuals.

Elena has had her bloodline adjusted again and has been equipped with combat armor from a modified otherworldly civilization. Combining otherworldly technology with magic from this world, she now possesses true magic attraction.

Agustina, on the other hand, heats up; more accurately, it accelerates the movement of particles within a certain space.

Both of these also distorted Zhao Shu's limited time management abilities to some extent.

"Yes, you won, but unfortunately, that was a past that never happened, and a future that will never come." Zhao Shu openly admitted that he, a man who had lived for four hundred years and possessed extraordinary power that should have surpassed all others, had been defeated by these two women.

But as he said, that was something that never happened in the past and will never happen in the future.

"So, in your future, is there a future where you can beat the leader?" Agustina asked again.

“We’re very curious about that,” Elena added.

Dinia looked at Zhao Shu quietly, "We just hope you can help us, and we will definitely reward you handsomely afterwards."

“You can’t give me what I want. Although I’ve said it many times, I have to repeat it again: I want a way to transcend the seventh level and reach the eighth level, and you don’t know it,” Zhao Shu said.

"Then I'm sorry, but today, you have no choice but to agree." Dinia's expression changed, and an eerie light shone from her scarlet eyes.

Zhao Shu said calmly, "You can't beat me."

“You can’t kill me either,” Dinia said.

Zhao Shu was furious. He could actually kill Dinia, but he absolutely did not want to experience the disaster that Dinia's "death" would bring a second time. He almost couldn't turn back then.

“We don’t know, but that doesn’t mean Ronan and the others in another timeline don’t know. Even if they don’t know, does the future necessarily not know? Are you stupid? No, that’s not right.” Elena was speaking when she realized something: Zhao Shu had probably heard what she was saying before, which meant something.

Zhao Shu tried, but he couldn't travel through time either.

"Oh my god, so you waited here for us just to tell us you couldn't do it? Uh, no, that's not quite right either..."

Chapter 1272 Too Many Secrets, Cooperation Achieved, Second Phase

No, it was wrong from the very beginning.

This is something that Agustina and Elena suddenly realized.

Why is it wrong?

According to Zhao Shu, he was definitely ambushed by Agustina and Elena. He was caught off guard and didn't dodge. Since the range and length of his time manipulation are limited, he undoubtedly had to leave the battle circle after being killed by Chu Jian. Once he left, he would no longer be able to continuously select the three people to rewind together.

Simply put, after all the events that had happened, the three of them would have some fragmented memories, but none of them had any at all. This was the first time they had ever met Zhao Shu.

This shouldn't be the case unless Zhao Shu restarts the system on a large scale, but he shouldn't be able to do that on his own.

"Are you puzzled?" Zhao Shu asked.

“There’s no need to delve into these matters,” Dinia said. “Since you can’t break through the closed spacetime barrier to let us return to our own spacetime, then I can only say I’ve disturbed you.” With that, she turned to leave.

"Wait a minute," Zhao Shu called out to Dinia.

Although he had met this group of people several times, there were still too many mysteries surrounding them for him.

First, they come from another time and space. How did they get here?

Zhao Shu himself did not have a way to reliably travel back and forth between parallel timelines.

Secondly, how did they achieve immortality?

Zhao Shu himself did not achieve true immortality; he could only periodically rejuvenate.

Then, they can go to a place that exists in this world but is normally inaccessible. How do they get there?

Zhao Shu hadn't even discovered such a place all these years.

Furthermore, they clearly possess power that doesn't belong to the normal supernatural system, nor are they implants. Where did this power come from? Zhao Shu had never seen it before, let alone knew.

He, a man who has lived for four hundred years, is far less knowledgeable about the other side of this world than these women.

He was eager to know those things.

Dinia stopped and turned around. "Please speak."

Zhao Shu leaped down from the stage, landing on a platform at the same height as the three of them. "My arrival in this timeline wasn't entirely autonomous; there was a significant element of chance involved. I did some research afterward, but I couldn't figure out how to escape. And since timelines are things you can't experiment with casually, I've kept putting it off. During my encounters with you, I once risked trying, but I still couldn't return to my original timeline. The final result was a large-scale regression in time." "Perhaps I can't do it alone, but that doesn't mean we can't do it together."

At this point, Elena interjected, "There are always prerequisites for cooperation."

Agustina chimed in, "And you also have to show sincerity."

Elena continued, "To put it bluntly, Your Majesty, no matter what the final outcome is, you'll first learn a bunch of things you want to know from us." "In short, you won't lose out either way," Agustina concluded.

Zhao Shu didn't want to pay attention to these two low-class, gossipy women, and looked at Dinia, who was the one who could actually make the decisions.

“Cooperation is possible,” Dinia said, “but without any promises.” Cooperation was certainly possible, since they really had no other choice. However, they would not give Zhao Shu anything in return. As for him obtaining the information he wanted through observation, reasoning, and probing, that was his own skill.

There's no need to worry about this former emperor doing anything unnecessary. It's not that we trust him, but rather that the two sides have already engaged in friendly negotiations using violence.

“Then it’s a deal,” Zhao Shu said.

As someone who once founded a nation, his principle has always been to make more friends and fewer enemies. The reason for the conflicts in their previous meetings was twofold. First, over the years, he had become increasingly childlike, and he felt he could manipulate time. Given the unique nature of their group, he wanted to test their strength. Second, and very realistically, negotiations require seizing the initiative. How does one gain the initiative? Through mere words?

To be honest, he really wanted to meet Ronan and see what kind of man could attract this woman with snow-white, light blonde hair and awe-inspiring strength.

“Alright, come with me, we’re going to Chang’an,” Dinia said, turning and walking away.

A few days later, Zhao Shu followed Dinia and the other two to the Celestial Realm.

Having lived for four hundred years, he finally saw another side of this world: a seemingly endless sea of ​​white sand.

At this moment, in another time and space.

Ronan's special training has begun again.

Lavana, Louise, and Liz are still slowly increasing in strength, and Ronan can still win, but it is becoming increasingly difficult to use the Reverse Soul Transfer Technique on them in high-intensity battles.

However, this is a good start, because it is an inevitable process.

At first, the three of them were not strong enough, so it was easy. As their strength increased, things became more difficult. But as Ronan became more proficient, things became easier again.

Of course, this is not the end.

Because the three of them have a second stage of fusion, which is a true fusion.

The three Silverwing Pegasus Black Knights in the first stage were actually only connected together, fighting independently under one vessel. Their form was also far different from that of the mysterious people who had mostly surpassed the seventh rank. Practicing with them in the first stage was purely to hone Ronan's proficiency, not to hone his true skills.

In their second stage, their souls, bodies, and supernatural powers are all one; they are no longer a single person, and they are equally resistant to being separated. Ronan aims to hone his skills in combat by fighting against them in their second stage, mastering the technique of seizing their spirit and body during battle.

More than an hour later, the training ended, and the three of them deactivated their transformations.

Ronan was also panting heavily, leaning on his sword.

He began to feel tired during combat training.

"Haha, haven't we gotten stronger again? I bet we won't even need Ronan to lift a finger, we can just go for it ourselves," Louise said with a very proud expression.

Liz rolled her eyes at her habitually. "Don't forget, we were created by the other side. How do you know he hasn't figured out some weakness of ours?"

“A proper celebration wouldn’t be a bad idea,” Lavana said.

“I suggest an extra three days, no, two days,” Louise said with a smile.

Ronan put on a stern face, "The pace of cultivation cannot be interrupted. Once we reach the next stage, we can rest for a few days if we want."

It's not that we can't take a vacation, it's just that we're in a period of rapid growth, and disrupting that rhythm would be very bad.

Louise smiled. "I was just joking."

She was genuinely joking, though it was a bit absurd. But she wasn't so reckless as to be unaware of the gravity of the situation. In the near future, she would be risking her life, which of course allowed her no room for complacency.

"Idiot," Liz cursed directly.

Ronan couldn't help but shake his head. The familiar bickering was about to begin again, but that was fine too, at least the atmosphere wouldn't be too tense.

Chapter 1273 Heavy Snow, Change

Chaos, returning home
