White clouds drift lazily by, and the world remains silent.

The Taoist priest sat on the ninety-ninth floor of the Eternal Tower, oblivious to the passage of time.

On this day, He opened His eyes and looked ahead.

The ninety-ninth floor was empty except for a butterfly that always accompanied the Taoist. Since the Taoist was looking at it, he naturally looked at it.

The butterfly hovered in front of the Taoist priest, without flapping its wings, yet its message was clear.

"What is it?"

The Taoist priest countered, "When?"

The butterfly shook its head; it knew nothing of the sun and moon, only of freedom.

It's not that we lack the ability to know, but rather that we don't care.

What does the alternation of the sun and moon have to do with Him?

In terms of power, the sun and moon are nothing but dust in comparison. Would a person pay attention to two grains of sand in the desert?

Humans wouldn't do such a thing, and gods certainly wouldn't.

The Taoist priest, however, knew how.

Since He asked, there is naturally an answer.

May Day?

The Taoist seemed to recall his teacher mentioning that in ancient times, this day was... Labor Day?

Labor, no matter how you interpret it, requires physical movement.

That's why He had a sudden thought, but that's still not enough. Since it's Labor Day, it should naturally be a holiday for labor.

What is there that requires you to do it yourself?

The Taoist priest did not know.

So He decided to go out and see the world.

The Taoist's first stop was the Asura Tower.

According to Shura's original plan, the Taoist and several other supreme experts should have come to this tower.

This was the first time the Taoist had visited the Asura Tower since its completion.

He entered the tower, not appearing on the first floor, but going directly to the ninth floor, and then sat down.

A moment later, a young man in black rushed over, beads of sweat still on his forehead.

"Third Brother, what brings you here? You didn't even tell me beforehand..."

Ye Bai wasn't faking it; he was genuinely a little flustered.

Now, if Ye Bai wanted to, nothing in the myriad realms could escape those eyes.

Knowing that his third brother had arrived at the Asura Tower, the first thing Asura did was to check all the myriad realms again to make sure there were no problems before rushing to the Asura Tower, which caused a delay.

"It's nothing."

Xiaoyao answered calmly, then, seemingly realizing it wasn't quite accurate, added,

"Nothing's wrong for now."

Ye Bai's heart, which had just been in his throat, died completely at this moment...

"Nothing's wrong for now" means "Something might happen later?"

As Ye Bai examined the river of time, he asked,

What will happen next?

You can see the clues yourself, but it's obviously easier to just ask Third Brother.

"You'll know when the time comes."

Looking down, Xiaoyao saw a boy with similarly black hair playing a game of picking up sticks in the very center of the Shura Tower.

The supreme demon god who was sealed away by the combined forces of the strongest beings back then has grown so much without anyone noticing.

The older this child gets, the greater the chance of the return of the supreme demon god.

Xiaoyao withdrew his gaze and suddenly spoke.

Do you know why the fragments of eternity are so precious?

Ye Bai certainly knew the answer.

"The laws of heaven and earth are ever-changing. For ordinary strong people, if the heavens and earth change, their strength will be greatly reduced."

Those who possess fragments of eternity have a stable anchor point in the world. No matter how the world changes, their strength will remain at least at a certain level, though there may be fluctuations, but at least a minimum level is guaranteed.

Ye Bai himself has experienced this firsthand.

The nine generations of the strongest human beings are all owners of the Eternal Fragment, and they are all using their own methods to perfect the Eternal Fragment.

Xiaoyao said calmly, "Therefore, our strength also fluctuates."

"right."

Ye Bai nodded and asked in return,

"Third Brother, are you worried about something going wrong in the future?"

Xiaoyao unusually spoke a few more words.

"As long as there is fluctuation, there will be a point in time when the strength of all the owners of the Eternal Fragments will drop to its lowest point."

Ye Bai's expression turned serious. "I didn't see that point."

"I didn't see it either."

Xiaoyao replied calmly.

"But it will definitely happen."

And what that day means is self-evident.

His return.

His return is unstoppable. Since He has already lost once and died once, He will naturally understand what it takes to win.

At least this time, He will not be killed a second time in the same way.

Xiaoyao had foreseen that day would come; to be precise, He already knew, but today He remembered it again and naturally had to come to the Asura Tower.

The Asura Tower is an SSS-level equipment used to suppress the most powerful demon god. Its strength is related to Ye Bai's own strength, as well as the strength of all the strongest humans.

If one day, the power of all the strongest beings plummets to rock bottom, and the supreme demon god returns with a vengeance...

Ye Bai remained silent, but it was clear that He had already begun preparing for that day.

Ye Bai has his own methods.

"The scenery here is beautiful."

Xiaoyao left those words behind, then got up and departed.

He left from the top of the Tower of Asura.

So, a hole appeared at the top of the Asura Tower.

Ye Bai looked at the hole at the top of the Asura Tower, his lips twitching slightly.

In the distance, the angry roar of the Foolish Master could be heard.

"Shura! Your tower is broken again!"

"How many times have I told you? This thing is very expensive to repair!"

"......"

After leaving the Asura Tower, the Taoist went to many places, just to take a look.

Finally, He came to His good nephew.

Shadow Two let out a howl and cried out, "Uncle, I miss my dad!"

Xiaoyao thought for a moment and replied, "We will meet."

Shadow Two: ? ? ?

"Uncle, don't scare me! I don't want to think about it anymore. I'll never dare to think about my father again. Uncle, let him rest in peace. He finally got to die once..."

Bad men get nervous, but bad women are obviously much more rational.

"What's the panic? Our third uncle didn't say Dad would definitely come back to life. Maybe we're the ones who will die? Ah... Third Uncle! Save me! I don't want to die! Please let Dad come back to life!"

"Yes, yes, Uncle, that old man should have come back to life long ago. Don't let us die..."

Faced with the choice between his own death and his father's life, Shadow Two surprisingly reached a consensus: it would be better to let his father live and suffer.

Xiaoyao didn't say anything more, but left again.

Finally, He stood in front of a mental hospital again and looked up.

Nanjiang City Third Mental Hospital

Since it's labor, you should go to work.

And this is where He spends the longest time at work.

The Taoist priest put on a white robe with a name tag on it.

[Psychologist: Zhang Xiaoyao]

He went into the mental hospital...

......
