Chapter 423: 12 + 8 = 20
Chapter 423: 12 + 8 = 20
The Goddess had a grave expression on her face as she and Fang Yu knew both knew the danger that they were in right now. “Tsk, so they have come.” Outside the room, Solomon let out an annoyed sigh as he looked above him.
“When I was just chilling in this planet, these guys did nothing. But now that I am about to change the Timelines, they came rushing in here? How selfish of them.” “Like you’re one to talk.” Fang Yu replied angrily to the fuming Solomon. Even if Fang Yu was still inside the room, she could still hear what Solomon said, and vice versa. “Even if you are technically allied with my future self now, I will still not forget what you did to the innocent residents of the Underground that you devoured!”
To that accusation, Solomon’s only reply was, “Well, if you successfully change the timeline, you will technically prevent me from devouring all those residents earlier. So instead of blaming me, why don’t you just go back right now so that you can still save everyone that died this time?”
After Solomon said these words, Fang Yu suddenly realized something. During her trip here in the Goddess Planet, she met some beings who are now dead. This included the Djinns that Solomon personally killed and the Djinns that Fang Yu killed with her hands.
But once Fang Yu changes the timeline, al these deaths can be prevented! Not only that, but she can also prevent the Solomon in her Present Timeline on enslaving the Djinns!
As long as Fang Yu did it right, she can save Genie from her sad fate as a slave! Fang Yu’s thoughts were then cut off as she heard Solomon saying something with that irritating voice of his.
“Fang Yu, by the time you return to your Present Timeline, you will find my baby version somewhere in Planet Thrae... But I cannot tell you where since I only have fuzzy memories when I was still a baby...” “Oh, are you requesting me to take care of your version at my Present Timeline?” Fang Yu’s eyebrows raised as she gave Solomon a skeptical look. “Aren’t you worried that I could just you know, try to kill your baby version?” “Oh please, I am still a baby at that time.” Solomon said as he gave Fang Yu a withering look. “I only became twisted after something brought me away from Planet Thrae... So you can still prevent my baby version on devouring countless planets and enslaving many Djinns...”
“Tsk, now I have no choice but to do that.” Fang Yu angrily muttered as she realized that now there is no way for her to not change the timeline.
After she finally affirmed her decision, Fang Yu took a deep breath as she started to calm herself down.
“Okay, now I have to unfuse first.” The current Fang Yu was the fusion of her male and female body. For Fang Yu to go back to her Present Timeline, the first thing she should do was to unfuse her body first. After unfusing, her male body will appear at the Planet Thrae while her female body will stay here in the Goddess Planet.
She will then fuse back, but this time the fusion will be in Planet Thrae. That is Fang Yu’s way to go back to her Present Timeline. Once Fang Yu changes the Future Timeline, there is no way for her to go back to the Future Timeline anymore as that timeline will already cease to exist. So the next time that Fang Yu unfuses after she changed the Future Timeline, both of her bodies will just appear beside each other.
But before Fang Yu could unfuse, she suddenly felt a powerful force obstructing her from separating.
No, this force is not really preventing Fang Yu from separating into her male and female bodies. Instead, this force is preventing Fang Yu’s male body to cross the River of Time! It was as if this force was doing everything that it can to prevent Fang Yu’s male body to appear at her Present Timeline!
“S**t, that Chronomancer is here! Seems like he’s also not happy with what we are about to do!” Solomon muttered as he stood up quickly. It was obvious from his expression that he was not happy with the appearance of this Chronomancer. “Chronomancer? Is he someone who can manipulate time?” Fang Yu asked as she continued her attempts on unfusing her body.
“Yes.” Solomon replied as he cracked his knuckles. “But that power of his does not come from his own insights. Instead his power to manipulate time comes from the Time Fragment of the Bisected Space-Time Gyroscope.”
“Wait, Bisected Space-Time Gyroscope?” This time, Fang Yu felt panic as she realized what these words meant. “By bisected, you mean...” “Yeah, divided into two.” Solomon replied. “The Space-Time Gyroscope is a Universe Artifact that can manipulate Space-Time. Its previous owner was your master Wang Hao. But one day, your master suddenly disappeared, and up until now, he still did not return. The only thing that came back was the Space-Time Gyroscope, and it was now divided into two parts.”
Solomon pointed above him as he said, “That Chronomancer guy obtained the first half, which is the Time Fragment. As for the Space Fragment it was with another practitioner who calls himself Choromancer!” “........” Fang Yu suddenly went silent, as she felt complicated emotions after she heard what Solomon said.
From the looks of it, it was not only the future Fang Yu who went through a lot. It seems like even Wang Hao had his own difficulties! “Will Wang Hao be saved if I change the timelines? Sigh, I will only know the answer once I go back.” Fang Yu thought as she glared above her.
“But how can I go back if this Chronothingy is stopping me from doing so?” The Goddess, upon seeing what was happening, let out a sigh as she said, “Do not worry Fang Yu. They will not kill you as killing you will change the timeline. What they want is to make this timeline stay as it is.” “So what will they do to me then?” Fang Yu asked as her body tensed imperceptibly. “Will they do some creepy stuff on me?”
The Goddess shook her head as she said, “Its just simple. Since the River of Time cannot wipe your memories, those powerful beings will be the ones who will wipe your memory. They will then be the one that will bring you back to your Present Timeline. That way, you will not have any memories on what happened here. That will basically mean that you will be unable to change the timelines anymore.”
“So vicious...” That was the only thing that Fang You could say after hearing the Goddess’ explanation. “F**k!” Suddenly, Solomon let out a shout as he gave a resigned looked at the room.
He then took a deep breath as he said, “I hate to say this, but Goddess, I think we should ally ourselves for now.” The Goddess had a cramped smile on her face as she heard what Solomon said. After a few seconds of deliberation, the Goddess unwillingly nodded her head as she replied.
“Well, we have no choice but to do that right?” “Wait...” Fang Yu raised both of her arms as she realized what the other two was talking about.
“Are you saying that you two will try to fight those powerful beings that are preventing me from leaving?
“Well, do you have any proposal on what we can do?” Solomon said as his body began to tremble. “Because if you have, feel free to say it now. I am not happy with allying with the Goddess so any of your ideas will be appreciated.” “...” Fang Yu’s silence was an indication that she had nothing to say. “Cooperation time then...”
The Goddess, who lay in the coffin while she was talking to Fang Yu, suddenly let out a groan as she started to move her body. Her coffin creaked as the Goddess’ feet landed on the ground. It took the Goddess a few seconds to leave her coffin. “Pit pat.” The footsteps of the Goddess were slow as her jade-white feet caressed the floor underneath.
Fang Yu gulped at the sight o the her future version as she realized that she will just look like her in the future. While Fang Yu w busy watching, she suddenly felt a hand gripping her elbow and when she looked at who it was, she saw that it was the Goddess who was holding her.
The Goddess gave Fang Yu a grim smile as she said, “I think you should bring Andromeda and her spaceship inside your storage now. After all, it will be your time to leave already.” “How about Genie?” Fang Yu asked as she looked at Genie, who stood beside Andromeda. Both of their faces were tense as they could not understand what was happening.
“You do not need to bring her.” The Goddess quickly replied. “After all, once you change the timeline, the Genie that you know right now will cease to exist.”
“........”
“Do not be saddened Fang Yu.” The Goddess said as she patted Fang Yu’s head. “By changing the timeline, you are saving Genie from a lot of traumatic things. If you really want to still be friends with her, then look for Genie at your Present Timeline. I am sure she will also be a good friend here.” “I understand.” Fang Yu replied as the Goddess waved her hands. An ethereal hand shot out from the Goddess which made both Genie and Andromeda unconscious. This hand then dragged Andromeda and the spaceship right in front of Fang Yu.
Both Andromeda and the spaceship disappeared as they were absorbed by Fang Yu’s storage. “Now then.” After seeing that Fang Yu already had everything with her, the Goddess and Solomon clapped their hands merrily, as if they were excited what was about to happen next. “It’s time to leave. But first, we must get rid of the pests!”

Fang Yu suddenly felt her surroundings blurring for a second. After that moment passed by, Fang Yu’s vision went back to normal, but the scenery around Fang Yu changed. Fang Yu looked around her, and she realized where she was. “I am just outside the Goddess Planet.”
Right beside Fang Yu were the Goddess and Solomon who stood by her side-by-side. Fang Yu knew that for them to appear quickly at the outer space, both Solomon and the Goddess must have around Seventh Stage Power right now. But what was astonishing about this was the fact that both Solomon and the Goddess were still injured!
If that was the case, then how strong could Solomon and the Goddess be once they recovered?
Instead of looking at Fang Yu, both Solomon and the Goddess were looking in front of them.
No, glaring is the more apt term. “Oh, so these must be the guys that were preventing me to go back to my Present Timeline.” Fang Yu muttered as she started to shiver. “S**t, my body is reacting. These guys who are stopping me to leave... they are all powerful!”
From what Fang Yu could see, there are 20 weirdly dressed people in front of her, who were also glaring at Solomon and the Goddess. Even without using her divine sense, Fang Yu could feel that these 20 were all powerful beings that could be a powerhouse in this Universe!
And now, these 20 are all here to prevent Fang Yu from changing the Timeline! Both Solomon and The Goddess suddenly let out a mirthless laugh as Solomon said, “So, all 8 Patriarchs of the Eight Paragon Clans are all here. Not only that, but the 12 Sect Heads of the Twelve Cosmic Sects are also here! Oh my, you really used everything that you have to stop us!” “Of course we will do everything to stop this madness!” A hooded man shouted as he pointed his staff at Solomon.
“You evil spawn, even when you are at death’s door, you can still concoct something like this... It seems like you also have to die now too!” “Oh I am scared... Solomon ‘whimpered’ as he hid behind the Goddess. “If you really want to fight, then come get me then!” “You!!!!”
