Chapter 112: Chapter112-Wendell’s Love-Blinded Mind

Boom—!

A concentrated torrent of time-space law energy tore through the void, heading straight toward Leo!

Feeling the terrifying power of the attack, Wendell, Albert, and Kewen’s faces instantly turned ashen!

“Master, be careful!”

Albert, reacting the quickest, unleashed his God of War will and threw a punch in an attempt to intercept the attack. However, his punch, capable of shattering starborn, was assimilated and absorbed the moment it made contact with the time-space torrent!

“What?!”

Albert’s face was filled with disbelief as he watched the attack close in on Leo.

He couldn’t think fast enough and was about to leap in front of Leo to shield him.

But, to his surprise, Leo didn’t even turn around. He simply flicked his left hand casually.

The attack, which could obliterate an ordinary Sanctuary rank, silently vanished into the void without a trace.

Wendell and Kewen were stunned, their eyes wide open.

This man’s strength was simply unfathomable!

Albert’s face flashed with embarrassment, realizing that his concerns had been unnecessary.

“Hm?”

A voice of suspicion echoed from the void.

The next moment, the scene shifted again!

A river made of countless timelines and historical fragments—the Time River—emerged from the void, rushing toward them with the crushing force to overwhelm everything in its path!

Faced with this immense power of time and space, Wendell, Kewen, and Albert instantly felt insignificant.

“Look! Someone’s on the river!”

Albert pointed to the Time River.

They all looked up and saw a blurry figure walking against the flow of time, stepping on the peak of the temporal waves, slowly approaching them.

The figure was shrouded in fragments of time, making it impossible to see clearly.

“To think, in such a remote place, I’d encounter an existence like yours.”

The cold voice echoed again, devoid of any emotion.

“But disturbing the order of time and space must come with a price!”

A more terrifying aura erupted from the figure, as though the weight of time itself was pressing down on them!

Wendell, Kewen, and even Albert, now a Sanctuary Lord rank, instantly felt suffocated by the overwhelming pressure!

“Who are you?”

Albert asked in a deep voice, struggling to withstand the immense pressure.

The figure on the Time River sneered disdainfully.

“You’re not even qualified to know my true name.”

Hearing this extremely arrogant statement, Albert didn’t get angry but instead smiled.

“Is that so?”

“Then, I’ll personally see what gives you the audacity to be so arrogant!”

He gathered mana around him, preparing to act.

“Albert, step back.”

Leo’s voice rang out.

Albert froze in place. Although reluctant, he stepped back and stood beside Leo.

Leo paused his ritual for a moment and turned to face the figure on the Time River.

“I’ve had some dealings with the Time-Space Control Bureau in the past; we’re old acquaintances.”

“I’d appreciate it if you could make this a little easier for me.”

His tone was calm.

At this, the three men present froze in place.

The Time-Space Control Bureau?

Wendell and the others exchanged puzzled glances, clearly unfamiliar with this name.

However, they vaguely understood that there seemed to be a mysterious guardian organization overseeing the time-space laws that maintain the balance of the worlds.

They had thought it to be just a legend, but to their surprise, it really existed, and its members’ power was staggering!

Still, they didn’t panic.

After all, Leo appeared to be even stronger, and it seemed like he had some kind of connection with these Time-Space Control Bureau people.

The figure on the Time River frowned at Leo’s words.

It wasn’t surprising that someone knew about the Time-Space Control Bureau’s existence.

However, he found Leo’s attempt to cozy up to him distasteful.

“Old acquaintance? Hmph!”

“What makes you think you have the right to associate yourself with the Time-Space Control Bureau?”

“Disturbing the order of time and space is a crime punishable by death!”

Boom!

Before he finished speaking, the figure made his move again!

With a roar from the entire Time River, even greater time-space power transformed into a destructive torrent rushing toward them!

The force of this attack made even Albert’s heart race in fear. He wasn’t entirely sure he could escape unscathed.

The figure from the Time-Space Control Bureau on the Time River sneered as he looked down on Leo.

Did he really think invoking the name of the Time-Space Control Bureau would spare him?

What a naïve fool!

Leo below simply shook his head helplessly.

He had no hostility toward the Time-Space Control Bureau.

This organization maintained the stability of time and space across countless worlds, and their contributions were undeniable.

This time, he had indeed been the one to disturb the order, which was why he was trying to communicate peacefully.

Though… this wasn’t the first time he had done this.

Leo lightly waved his hand again.

The apocalyptic time-space torrent collided with an invisible, absolute barrier and quietly vanished into the void without a sound.

“You… how is this possible?!”

The enforcer’s face changed as he finally realized that Leo was a being of power far beyond what he had anticipated!

The figure on the Time River began to condense, and the image became clear.

It was a young man wearing a purple starborn robe.

“Are you really going to make an enemy of the Time-Space Control Bureau?”

The young man fixed his gaze on Leo, his tone serious.

He knew he couldn’t defeat Leo, so now he had no choice but to rely on the pressure from the Bureau’s name.

Leo smiled.

“I bear no ill will toward the Time-Space Control Bureau.”

He gestured toward the grave behind him.

“I simply wish to save a life that should not have perished.”

The young man looked at the grave, and his eyes twitched slightly.

“A being dead for millions of years… Are you serious?”

His voice was low, tinged with suppressed anger.

“Moreover, I must tell you, even if you reverse time, she cannot truly come back to life!”

“The laws of life and death cannot be reversed by mere manipulation of time!”

At these words, Wendell and Kewen felt as though they had been struck with a heavy blow.

“Master… is it truly impossible for the deceased to return?”

Kewen asked, his voice trembling.

The young man scoffed.

“Reversing life and death? This is not something beings from your dimension can touch!”

“Foolish delusion!”

Hearing this, Kewen felt as if all the strength had been drained from his body, and he collapsed to the ground.

Endless guilt and despair overwhelmed him once more.

“Selas… I’m so sorry…”

At this moment, Wendell suddenly lifted his head, his eyes fixed firmly on Leo.

“I believe in you, Lord Leo!”

His eyes burned with unwavering trust.

“You will bring Selas back!”

The young man shook his head in mockery.

To him, everyone else besides Leo was laughable, like ants.

Hearing Wendell’s words, Leo was taken aback.

Though he was touched by Wendell’s trust, he couldn’t shake the feeling that something was off.

Is this the power of love?

Love not only makes one act foolishly but can also make a brilliant strategist like Wendell say such abstract things!

Leo shook off the strange thoughts in his mind and turned to the Time-Space Control Bureau enforcer.

“Hey, sir!”

Leo spoke.

“How about a bet?”

The young man frowned. “What are we betting on?”

Leo pointed to the grave.

“I bet that I can bring her back to life. If I succeed, then this matter ends here!”
