Chapter 1002 - 475: Time Sand (First Update)

Chapter 1002: Chapter 475: Time Sand (First Update)

"I call these dark golden sands, Time Sand, because they can break through the limits of time."

"Then I forged Time Sand, along with some other materials treasured by the Celestial Path Sect, into this Soft Whip."

"I named it Black Rider because it can take you to any place you want to go, like a steed."

"Ever since the Soft Whip was made, I’ve always kept it by my side, waiting to find its destined owner."

"Until that year, your master came to find me, asking for my help."

"I helped your master deliver you into this world, and at the first glance, I knew that my Black Rider had found its master."

Lawrence Winters was stunned upon hearing this.

She held her breath, her eyes deepening into a velvety black abyss, as if capable of absorbing all light and possessing a sparkling texture.

For a long time, she couldn’t say anything.

After a while, she quietly said, "Grandmaster, are you telling me that the Blythes came from the future?"

"Did they come to the past with my help to save their daughter?"

"Does this mean their daughter, Alice Blythe, had already passed away in the future?"

"Over the years ahead, the couple couldn’t reconcile themselves, and ultimately returned to the present to find me to rescue their daughter?"

"But how did the future me know about the present me..."

Lawrence paused, then let out a bitter laugh, "Right, if these things happen now, then to future people, it’s already a past occurrence."

"The future me certainly knows what happened in the past, so I can guide them, tell them the whole story..."

The old Daoist nodded emphatically, "Exactly. Only you have the Time Sand; only you can use Time Sand to help them return to the past."

"However, even with the help of Time Sand, changing the past, which is altering history, comes at a corresponding price."

Lawrence’s heart skipped a beat: "...what price?"

"A tooth for a tooth, blood for blood, life for life, emotion for emotion," the old Daoist said, word by word.

"So they must die?" Lawrence shook her head, full of regret.

She thought, this must be the reason why the Blythes asked Evan Stetford to pass that message to her?

They said they didn’t regret it.

To save their daughter, to give her a chance to live again, they willingly sacrificed their lives and chose to return to the past.

And the price of going back to the past is their own death.

Lawrence was just pondering this when she suddenly heard her phone ring again.

She hurriedly said to the old Daoist, "I have to take this call. Please wait a moment."

She took out her phone and answered the incoming call.

It was an unfamiliar number.

Lawrence generally doesn’t answer calls from unfamiliar numbers, but being abroad, it’s usually known people who call, despite not having exchanged numbers.

Lawrence connected the call, and the person on the other end hesitantly asked, "May I ask if this is the Great Heavenly Master Winters?"

Lawrence was slightly stunned, the voice sounded somewhat familiar.

It seemed to be...Alice Blythe’s voice?

Why was she calling her?

Lawrence glanced at her phone and tentatively asked, "Is this Miss Blythe? I’ve just learned about your parents’ tragic news, please accept my condolences."

"Yes, it’s me, Alice Blythe. Great Heavenly Master Winters is indeed impressive." Alice Blythe sighed deeply and softly said, "...thank you, thank you, Great Heavenly Master Winters."

Lawrence: "..."

There’s no need to specifically call to thank me?

Lawrence was about to make some pleasantries when she heard Alice Blythe say, "But Great Heavenly Master Winters, I have another question I’d like to ask you."

Lawrence quickly nodded, smiling, "Go ahead, as long as I can answer."

Alice Blythe said, "I went to the cruise ship to claim my parents’ remains, and checked the ship’s records. I found out that they never disembarked, they were always on the cruise in international waters, and the ship’s surveillance footage proves it."

"...Who were those two people who appeared at my house five days ago, looking exactly like my mom and dad?"
