Chapter 222 Daji? Daji!

Wang Feng's gaze stayed on the ferocious black armor robe on King Qin.

He once owned a piece of armor like this.

"It's indeed the ancient king." Wang Feng hovered in the air, gently stroking his chin with his fingers.

Suddenly, King Qin's sharp gaze pierced through the void like an arrow, locking onto Wang Feng in mid-air, as if he had completely seen through his concealment magic.

Wang Feng paused slightly, then clasped his fists and bowed.

The King of Qin simply nodded, then withdrew his gaze and sat upright in the chariot again.

"Tsk." Wang Feng retracted his arm, a bitter smile on his face. "Without the power of angels, my super-level cultivation is indeed not enough in front of the ancient king who has traveled countless miles on the road of forbidden spells."

He looked at the chariot moving farther and farther away and noticed that the King of Qin's right hand never left the hilt of the Tai'a sword.

"The Tai'a Sword, wasn't it passed down by the ancient king?"

…

After the King of Qin returned to the palace, he waved his hand to dismiss his attendants and sat alone on the gilded dragon throne. He said in a deep voice, "Come out. There is no one else here."

Wang Feng's figure slowly emerged from the void, and he smiled and said, "Your Majesty has a keen eye. This little trick of mine really can't be hidden from you."

Ying Zheng ignored the compliment and stared at Wang Feng with a sharp gaze like a torch: "You are not from this world."

Wang Feng looked down at his rough linen clothes, raised an eyebrow and asked, "Why do you think so?"

"You have a self-contained cultivation system within your body." Ying Zheng tapped the armrest of the dragon throne with his fingers. "Unlike us, we are still in the exploratory stage and need external aids to perform our magic."

Wang Feng was stunned when he heard this, and then he suddenly realized - the father of magic in this era has not yet been born, and those who can communicate with the elements of heaven and earth (awaken magic) are even rarer.

Most magicians of this era forged magical weapons from the remains of demon totems, such as the "Burning Eye".

Only then can one perform some basic magic. (This is a second setting)

Of course, the King of Qin is not among them. The fact that he was able to wipe out the six demon countries proves his great strength.

"Yes, I am not from this world. I came to this world because of an accident. I came to find Your Majesty and also to find a way home." Wang Feng nodded.

He then briefly recounted how Su Lu used the Dark River to drag tens of thousands of people into the dark plane, but was stopped by himself with the Eye of Time. He accidentally transformed the Dark River into the Time River, and how he got involved here.

The King of Qin sat upright on the dragon throne, his fingers tapping lightly on the armrests. After listening to Wang Feng's narration, a strange light flashed in his eyes.

"Time reversal really exists," the King of Qin whispered to himself, with a hint of barely perceptible excitement in his voice.

Wang Feng noticed the gleam in King Qin's eyes and his heart tightened.

He suddenly realized that his words seemed to have opened a new door for the heroic lord.

"I hope it won't cause any time and space paradox." Wang Feng thought to himself.

The King of Qin suddenly spoke, his voice deep and powerful: "Can you let me see the Eye of Time?"

Wang Feng paused slightly and took two steps back without leaving any trace.

"Don't worry," the King of Qin said, standing with his hands behind his back. "I will not steal the treasures of the time traveler. In this era, irreversible changes should not occur."

Wang Feng's tense shoulders relaxed slightly when he heard this.

He flipped his palm, and a stone eye emitting a chaotic yellow light emerged: "This is the Eye of Time."

The King of Qin's eyes were as sharp as torches as he examined the Stone Eye carefully. "This object seems to come from an era even older than mine, and it contains the power of the origin of chaos."

He suddenly turned, his dragon robe billowing as he stepped forward. "Follow me. I'll take you to see the High Priestess of the Qin Dynasty. Perhaps she can find a solution."

A hint of surprise flashed in Wang Feng's eyes, and then he quickly followed.

…

Wang Feng followed the King of Qin to a palace made entirely of white jade.

The two lifelike stone fox sculptures in front of the door have bright eyes, as if they will come alive at any time.

This familiar architectural style made him frown slightly, as he felt like he had seen it before.

After passing through the deep corridor, the King of Qin stopped in front of a carved wooden door and knocked three times.

"Who?" A lazy female voice came from inside the door.

"It's me, A Zheng." The King of Qin's tone softened unusually.

"Oh~ come in."

As the words fell, the door opened silently.

The candlelight flickered in the hall, and a woman dressed in gorgeous silk palace dress was reclining on a jade couch.

When he saw her face clearly, Wang Feng's pupils shrank suddenly——

That stunningly beautiful face, that half-smile on her face, except for the lack of the iconic fox ears and nine tails, is clearly Daji, the Palace Master of the Jade Fox Palace!

"Daji?!" Wang Feng exclaimed, "How could it be you!"

The woman and King Qin were both stunned, their eyes fixed on Wang Feng.

"Do you know the high priest?" King Qin frowned slightly, with a hint of inquiry in his voice.

Wang Feng suddenly woke up - this is the world from more than two thousand years ago!

The person before him might just be similar to Daji in appearance. Just like Qin Yu'er and Mu Ningxue, there are so many people in the world who look alike.

"Sorry, I recognized the wrong person." Wang Feng apologized with a fist.

The high priest suddenly covered his lips and chuckled, his eyes flickering with a hint of cunning: "Daji? That's a good name. From today on, I will be called Daji."

Wang Feng was speechless for a moment, his face full of confusion.

The King of Qin explained, "The High Priestess is indeed nameless. When I was twelve years old, I met her in Qingqiu Town outside Kunlun Ruins."

"At that time, she lived alone in the Fox Fairy Temple outside the town. People within a hundred miles called her 'Fox Fairy Goddess'."

A rare flash of reminiscence flashed across the King of Qin's eyes. "That year, there was a severe drought. I personally witnessed her raise her hand to summon the rain, and she single-handedly repelled the attacking drought demon."

"Later," the King of Qin paused, "I visited her three times before finally getting her to come out of seclusion and help me. Over the years, the High Priestess has indeed helped me a lot."

When Wang Feng heard this, his heart suddenly shook, as if he was struck by lightning.

Kunlun?

Fox fairy?

These two words kept echoing in his mind, gradually overlapping with the fragments of memory.

He suddenly remembered the meaningful look in Daji's eyes when he first met her.

There is also the selfless help, and the last sentence "You will understand later~"

Now it’s so clear!

"So, what's the matter with you coming to see me?" Daji asked.

Wang Feng's thoughts were interrupted by Daji's question.

He took a deep breath to calm his inner shock.

He briefly recounted the conversation just now.

After hearing this, a strange light flashed in Daji's eyes.

She walked lightly with lotus steps, pacing slowly around Wang Feng, her silk palace dress making a rustling sound as it dragged on the ground.

"How interesting~" She suddenly leaned closer, her warm breath brushing Wang Feng's ear, "I didn't expect this handsome young man to come from the future two thousand years from now."

Wang Feng took a half step back without leaving a trace and said seriously, "I would like to ask the High Priest for help with two things: one is to find companions who may have been caught up in this era, and the other is to find a way to return."
