Upon hearing this, the historian couldn't help but take a step back. Having just witnessed him kill the demon lord despite being of a higher level, he was still somewhat apprehensive.
After all, in this world, the other party represents the will of the world.
However, he quickly realized what was happening and raised the Treasure Box of Creation in his hand: "I'm not as useless as the Lord of Demons. Besides, if we really fight, aren't you afraid I'll destroy this thing?"
Zuan glanced at him: "The material of this Creation Treasure Box is truly a primordial treasure. I'm afraid you don't have the ability to destroy it."
The historian nodded: "Indeed, destroying this treasure is indeed difficult, but destroying the time coordinates hidden on it is very easy. At that time, you may never find that sealed historical fragment again."
"No!" Salami panicked. That was her father's backup plan. If she could go back in time, she might be able to reunite with her father. But if that time coordinate was destroyed, then everything would be over.
The historian didn't even glance at her, but instead stared silently at the man, the only one in the room who could command her attention.
"Didn't you just say that the most tempting and precious thing in the world is a secret? Yet you're going to destroy such a secret with your own hands. Do you think you're being true to your professional ethics?" Zu An frowned slightly. His opponent was mysterious and unpredictable, and he wasn't confident of victory. Moreover, if his opponent was determined to destroy the spacetime coordinates above, he really wouldn't be able to stop him.
"Only by living can one obtain more secrets. I would not give up countless secrets that I might obtain in the future for the sake of one secret," the historian of time said slowly.
"That's just sophistry," Zu An sneered. "Since that's the case, leave your things here, and I'll let you go?"
Before the historian could speak, Salami suddenly shouted, "He has already learned the coordinates of this world and has come to investigate its true nature. Isn't the Regent afraid that he will attract even more invaders after he returns?"
She didn't get to see the situation where the Demon Lord and Zaun were both severely injured. If the Historian of Time leaves, she will be at Zaun's mercy.
Of course, she would have to provoke a fight between the two sides in order to have a chance to reap the benefits.
Zaun fell into deep thought. Salami's provocation wasn't clever, but it was indeed very effective.
Having finally resolved the invasion crisis from the demon world, if this Historian of Time were to go back and call for reinforcements, even though the Singularity World could be sealed off, who knows if this Historian of Time's world possesses any special abilities that would allow him to infiltrate?
Should we take this opportunity to leave him here forever...?
Seemingly sensing his murderous intent, the Historian of Time hurriedly explained, "Your Excellency, please do not misunderstand. Our world is completely different from the demon world, which is inherently cruel and loves conquest. We are only interested in one thing, which is the history of the universe and all kinds of major events that are happening. The duty of each of us Historians of Time is to record all of this, and we will not invade your world."
“Is that so…” Of course, Zuan wouldn’t believe him so easily. “Then you can stay here as a guest for a while. I will treat you well and tell me about your world while you’re here.”
As the saying goes, "Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle." This will also help us prepare for the future when facing the world of historians.
Upon hearing that he intended to force the historian of time to stay, a smug look appeared on Salami's face. Hmph, they're all so powerful, yet they're still being played with by me.
The Historian bowed to Zu'an: "Thank you for your kindness, Regent. I will indeed be staying in this world for a while to record its important events. However, I am currently more interested in the secrets of that long-forgotten world. Why don't you accompany me on a journey?"
Zuan snorted: "But I'm not interested in that at all."
He had been on edge for a long time and had barely slept. Now that he had finally gotten rid of his biggest threat, wouldn't it be better to stay home with his wife, kids, and a warm bed?
The historian seemed to have anticipated his response and calmly replied, "Then, does Your Majesty the Regent still wish to see the woman who disappeared a few days ago?"
"Sister Ling'er!" Zu An's expression changed, and even Pei Mianman and the others were moved. Could this guy know Xie Daoyun's whereabouts?
Seeing his reaction, the Historian of Time smiled slightly: "Back then, I was silently observing and recording everything in the Demon World dungeon, so of course I knew about Miss Xie's disappearance. It seems that she disappeared because she touched a piece of this Creation Jade."
Zuan was inwardly turbulent, but outwardly remained calm: "Although they are both Creation Jade, they may not be able to enter the same space-time."
The other party called it the Creation Jade, seemingly unaware that they were fragments of the Creation Jade Disc.
“But the Creation Jade in the treasure vault of the demon world has been passed down through generations of the demon world, and this Creation Treasure Box has also been passed down through generations of the demon world,” the Historian of Time raised the Creation Treasure Box in his hand, “Didn’t you notice that a piece is missing from this?”
Zuan's heart skipped a beat. He hadn't noticed it before, but now that he was reminded, there should be a decorative piece on the side of the Creation Treasure Box.
The image of the fragment of the Creation Jade Disc he had seen in the treasure vault flashed through his mind, and it seemed to be the perfect size for this.
The historian continued, "The Treasure Box of Creation was kept by the Lord of Slaughter, but something happened back then. I don't know the specific details, but I do know that the Lord of Demons later obtained a part of the box, which was the Jade of Creation."
"Since they share the same origin, it's highly likely that they will bring people to the same time and space. Over this period of time, I've observed that the Regent is a gentleman who values loyalty and righteousness. I doubt he would abandon his confidante."
Pei Mianman and the other girls exchanged glances. It was over. With Azu's personality, he would have tried to save them even if there was only a slight chance, let alone now that the possibility was so great.
Although they were worried that Zuan would be in danger, they couldn't stop him because Xie Daoyun was involved.
As expected, Zu'an said in a deep voice, "You've successfully convinced me. I'll go and take a look at that long-forgotten fragment of history. However..."
His eyes flashed like lightning as he stared intently at the other person: "Why should I go with you?"
This historian of time is truly mysterious, with too many variables surrounding him.
But leaving him here is not a good idea; there is probably no one in this world who can control him these days.
The Historian of Time smiled slightly and said, "I am somewhat aware of your concerns, but you need not worry about that. Our greatest duty as Historians of Time is to record all the major events and things worth recording that happen in various parts of the universe. We never participate in history ourselves, but only make the most objective records, and will not pose any threat to you."
"Not personally involved in history?" Zuan sneered. "But you seem to have been everywhere lately, you even actively framed me? Doesn't that count as personally involved?"
