Fortunately, Chu Nian's soul was powerful, and this body was a corpse that had been processed by Lin Jingting and Lou Qianzong, allowing Chu Nian to use most of his abilities.
Her mental strength was powerful enough to investigate Lan Nian's situation, and because the original owner was once a part of Lan Nian's soul, Chu Nian quickly understood Lan Nian's magical power fluctuations by borrowing some of the original owner's memories.
Noticing her turning her head to try and sense the situation outside, Lin Jingting tentatively asked, "How is it? Have you found anything? Or, have you thought of any good way to escape?"
Chu Nian didn't answer, but instead asked, "I found a word in the original owner's memories. This word should represent a group called 'Above.' What do you know about this 'Above'?"
Logically speaking, since this "above" group can separate overlapping time and space, they must not be a vulnerable group. However, judging from how this organization handles the issues of Lan Nian and Lan Fei, they seem somewhat powerless.
Lin Jingting and Lou Qianzong exchanged a glance, and then both of them sighed in unison.
Seeing this, Chu Nian frowned and asked in bewilderment, "What do you mean by this? Is my question so difficult to answer?"
Lin Jingting said, "To be honest, we all suspect that Lan Nian outside is related to this 'above' you mentioned."
Lou Qianzong nodded and said, "That's right. The organization must have a fairly good understanding of Lan Nian and felt that they couldn't really do anything to her, so they adopted a laissez-faire attitude towards her."
Chu Nian was speechless: So, they probably knew that Lan Fei was just a scapegoat, but because they were powerless to deal with Lan Nian, they still took Lan Fei away to take the blame—how shameless!
Lin Jingting continued, "Moreover, I suspect that this time the overlap of space and time was caused by Lan Nian. Her magic power is very strong, and her understanding of the laws of space and time is also very high. I think that even when I was at the peak of my magic power, I could only be considered to be on par with her."
Lou Qianzong pursed his lips and muttered, "With me in tow, maybe we can still beat her."
Lin Jingting: "Don't talk nonsense. Your combat strength is strong now, but your understanding of the laws of spacetime is far from sufficient. If she doesn't use her magic in this area, it's fine, but if she does..." He gave a wry smile and shook his head helplessly.
Lou Qianzong pouted again, somewhat unconvinced.
Chu Nian murmured softly, "The understanding of the laws of spacetime!"
Lou Qianzong immediately perked up and asked, "To be honest, in our previous encounters, I always felt that you weren't as strong as me. How is your understanding of the laws of spacetime?"
Lin Jingting cursed him helplessly, "Lou Qianzong, just shut up." He's got that smug look on his face!
Chu Nian chuckled and drawled, “The…comprehension of the laws of spacetime…ah!” Then, with a whoosh, he raised his hand and tore through the void, pulling Lin Jingting and Lou Qianzong to another space outside the cave.
This location is behind Lan Nian, who is currently attacking the formation.
So let her keep attacking the formation. She can break it whenever she wants. We're not going to wait!
Chu Nian pulled Lou Qianzong and Lin Jingting away with a Thousand Miles Earth Escape Technique, instantly leaving Lan Nian's territory far behind.
When she brought the two of them to a stop, they had arrived at the apartment in the original owner Lan Nian's memories. After the Devouring Maniac Lan Nian fled this place, no one lived here anymore. Now that Chu Nian had returned as Lan Nian, she naturally had to live in this apartment.
As for that Devouring Maniac Lan Nian, let her come find him if she dares!
"What is this...?" Lou Qianzong looked around at what he saw and was extremely surprised.
But he soon met Chu Nian's slightly smug eyes and felt his face burning: he had thought Chu Nian was just like him, with no understanding of the laws of space and time, but she had directly broken through the void and left Lan Nian's territory to come to this place.
Because Bi Lan Nian and Ci Lan Nian live in different spatial planes, Chu Nian broke through the spatial barrier and returned here.
Lin Jingting said happily, "Niannian, it seems that you have a very deep understanding of the laws of space."
Chu Nian gave him a strange look: Why did his words sound so awkward to her? It felt like the roles of master and disciple were reversed!
She finally couldn't help but scold him, "Don't forget I'm your master! You talk like you're my master, tsk!" After saying that, she didn't forget to give him a little eye roll.
Lin Jingting chuckled softly.
Lou Qianzong watched the interaction between the two with envy, and said with a pout, "Niannian, don't think that you are better than me just because you are like this. Who knows how long you will live? If you live much longer than me, you will have more and deeper insights than me, and then there is nothing surprising about it."
Chu Nian smiled and said, "I traveled through different timelines, unlike you who have lived through one human civilization after another. By the way, did you live in the present timeline, or did you travel here using a time machine?"
Lin Jingting: "I've survived until now!"
Lou Qianzong: "Time machine!"
The two men spoke in unison, and both gave very brief answers, but their answers were quite different.
"Oh..." Chu Nian drawled as she looked at the two of them. There must be something fishy about their answers.
They were probably a little surprised by each other's answers, so after glancing at each other, they both quickly changed their minds.
Lin Jingting: "Time machine!"
Lou Qianzong: "I'm still alive!"
Chu Nian almost burst out laughing, but on the surface, she glared at the two of them with a serious expression and a stern voice, saying, "You two, think it over before you speak!"
Lin Jingting sighed softly and said, "In fact, we originally arrived in this space using a time machine, but we discovered that time and space overlapped, so we searched one after another..."
Lou Qianzong continued, "After searching for a long time, we finally encountered the corpse of Lan Nian, who was being chased by Lan Nian..."
"Now that you've obtained the memories of this corpse, Lan Nian, you should know what happened next," Lin Jingting interrupted Lou Qianzong.
Lou Qianzong continued, "So the two of us first arrived here in a time machine, and then lived for a long time, until now. However, because of the overlap in time and space, although we have been searching for a long time, we are just endlessly going around in circles in the same space and the same amount of time..."
When something like this happens, it feels really difficult to explain it to others.
However, Chu Nian was also someone who traveled through different timelines. Her timeline was completely different from Lou Qianzong's and Lin Jingting's, so she understood most of it after hearing their explanations.
She murmured in a daze, "If we calculate it this way, this time the overlap of time and space, in terms of both time axis and space axis, is quite extensive."
