Chapter 279: The Chaoyuan Sect’s Anomaly
Li Fan only had time to glimpse the children excitedly crowding around a gaunt figure in blue robes before he was forcibly expelled from the Fallen Immortal Realm.
A dizzying spin later, Li Fan was back in the real world.
Mister Bai... Are you the master of this spacetime of lingering obsession?
Though this expedition had yielded no tangible gains, Li Fan had at least confirmed one thing.
This Mister Bai was... peculiar.
Within a spacetime of lingering obsession, events should unfold in a fixed, unchanging pattern unless Li Fan intervened to alter them.
Based on prior experiences, this Mister Bai should have come to the small temple to visit the children shortly after the great battle ended. But this time...
What a coincidence. The moment I was about to leave, he arrived?
Li Fan didn't believe this was mere happenstance.
This Mister Bai was deliberately avoiding him. Or perhaps, due to some special reason, Li Fan simply could not meet him, just as Li Fan could not leave Ningyuan City. It was a specific rule governing this entire spacetime.
Setting aside the question of why this was happening for now, this analysis made it highly probable that Mister Bai was indeed the master of this spacetime.
Which raised the next question: what was Mister Bai's obsession?
