Chapter 453 Ancient One's Doubts

No. 9 followed Master Wang and passed through the space gate with sparks flying everywhere. The next moment, they came to an open space - some mages who were dressed similarly to Master Wang were practicing spells in this open space.

These people include old and young, yellow, white and black.

Some of them drew circles in the air, causing sparks to fly; some conjured an energy shield with runes flowing in their hands, and moved back and forth like sword and shield soldiers on the battlefield; some swung out fire-colored chains, making the air crackle, showing their amazing whip skills.

Looking up from No. 9, there are high and low snow-capped mountains in the distance; looking back, there are rows of quaint wooden buildings built against the mountain.

Master Wang said, "Please follow me."

No. 9 calmed down and followed Master Wang. Soon they arrived at a wooden house that looked like a Zen room.

I saw a bald female mage with a gaunt face, thin body and a calm and peaceful expression, sitting cross-legged on one side of a low wooden table, slowly making tea.

The wizard raised his head and looked at him with his deep, bright eyes. No. 9's heart skipped a beat; it was as if these eyes contained a universe, mysterious and profound.

Master Wang put his palms together and bowed: "Master Gu Yi, the guests are here."

Gu Yi nodded slightly: "Thank you for your help."

Master Wang said, "It is what I should do."

Gu Yi then said: "Let me talk to this girl alone."

"Yes." Master Wang slowly left the meditation room.

Ancient One said to No. 9, "Please take a seat."

No. 9 suppressed the strange emotions in his heart, sat down cross-legged on the other side of the low table, and sat opposite Gu Yi.

Gu Yi poured her a cup of tea and pushed it in front of her: "Tea, please."

"Thank you." No. 9 thanked him, picked up the teacup and took a sip, saying, "Very good tea."

Gu Yi smiled and said, "The ordinary tea produced in the snowy mountains tastes a little different from other teas. I hope you like it."

Then he said: "I am the Ancient One, the leader of the mystics; they call me the Supreme Ancient One, although I am not fond of this title."

Number 9 said, "Hello, Supreme Mage."

Then she said, "My name is Elizabeth, Black Widow No. 9."

Gu Yi smiled and said, "I know the Black Widow. She is a killer and agent trained in a cruel way by the Red House, a secret organization left over from the former Soviet Union."

"But as far as I know, the Black Widow of the Red Room should have disappeared into the dust of time along with the destruction of the Red Room. But what is strange to me is that although the Red Room was destroyed, the Black Widow is still there; and the person who holds the title of Black Widow, Natasha Romanoff, has become the director of S.H.I.E.L.D."

Number 9 said: "She is number 1."

Gu Yi smiled, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, and said: "I was drinking tea with those dimensional demons in the dimensional world of the void of the universe before."

"I just returned to Kamar-Taj."

"Then I discovered that the long river of time that I could observe had undergone changes that I could not understand; outside the long river of time that I could observe, there was a larger shadow that I could not observe."

"I noticed someone was looking for Kamar-Taj, and I saw you, and then I realized that you were the Black Widow."

"This has caused me to have many questions and confusions. I haven't felt this way for hundreds of years."

"It's very novel, but it also makes me feel a little uneasy."

No. 9 was a little shocked when he heard Gu Yi's slow words.

The wizard in front of him, who looks like he can be blown away by a gust of wind, has actually lived for hundreds of years and has the power to observe the long river of time!

"So, I decided to meet with you." Ancient One said: "Kama-Taj is a hidden secret magician organization, and generally does not see outsiders."

Then he said, "I heard you tell the king that it was your boss and your husband who asked you to come to Kamar-Taj. Who is he? What is his purpose? Why doesn't he come himself?"

Hearing this, No. 9 was sure that Gu Yiguo had indeed just returned to the material universe - she didn't even know Jiang Shan!

No. 9 believed that as a mage who could observe the long river of time, although she might not know everything, Jiang Shan, Koros Island, and even the Two Worlds Organization, even if the Two Worlds Organization was actually not secret.

She is capable of knowing.

But I don’t know.

Either she was lying and bragging, making No. 9 mistakenly believe that she was very powerful, but in fact she was not; or, as she said, she had just returned from having tea with the dimensional demon.

And the time of drinking tea is very long, at least several years.

No. 9 felt some aura similar to Jiang Shan in Gu Yi, and she felt that Gu Yi must be a strong man. He would never lie.

No. 9 thought about it and thought of the mission to find Kamar-Taj. Jiang Shan had specifically noted that once Kamar-Taj was found, he would immediately tell him that he would come over in person. So No. 9 thought about it and said, "His name is Jiang Shan."

Said: "If you take some time and pay attention to the changes in the world in recent years, you will definitely know who he is."

"Jiang Shan."

When Gu Yi heard this, doubts appeared on her face as she pondered over the name. She felt that the name was very, very heavy, but it was shrouded in a mist and she couldn't see it.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"Please wait a moment, young lady."

As she said this, Gu Yi actually pulled out a cell phone from her robe.

It’s an old model from a few years ago, and it’s still a Huawei brand.

The wizard opened his phone skillfully but frowned.

No. 9 said: "Your old phone has long been obsolete and cannot access the upgraded artificial intelligence network."

After hearing this, Gu Yi showed a look of realization; he stretched out his hand, which disappeared into the space in front of him, and when he retracted it, he was holding the latest smart network terminal device on the market - a Huawei watch.

"Kama-Taj also has some properties. I don't take other people's things casually."

As Gu Yi spoke, he fiddled with it for a while, and it was unknown whether he had completed the real-name authentication, network access authentication and other procedures, but he had already opened the network.

She quietly surfed the Internet for half an hour.

With a long sigh, Ancient One put away his watch and sighed: "The world is changing so fast, so bizarre, people like me are about to fall behind."

As she said this, the doubt in her eyes grew deeper and deeper.

"Your husband is a very capable man. All the changes in the world are caused by him. It's just that the relationship between man and woman is not quite right."

No. 9 smiled and said, "As long as we don't think it's inappropriate."

Gu Yi listened, thought about it and nodded: "That's right. You are not a fish, how can you know the joy of fish?"

Then he asked, "So, what does Mr. Jiang want to see Kamar-Taj about?"

Number 9 said: "I don't know either."

She said: "He just asked us to look for Kamar-Taj and said that if we found it, we should let him know and he would come over personally."

Gu Yi smiled, "Okay. I can't wait to meet him, too."

Gu Yi discovered that the increasing number of doubts in his heart seemed to originate from Jiang Shan.

As a mage, I have a huge interest in all unknowns and doubts.

She wanted to know why, why the world had become like this.
