Time Travel: Did My Sister-in-Law Get Slapped in the Face Today?

Chapter 407

Now that Li Lan has mastered the Earth Eye, finding mineral sources is no problem for him, and it's time for him to take a trip to those places.

While he was pondering, he had already reached the edge of the gray fog.

The border of the celestial realm, which had fallen, now stands once again under the soft golden sunlight. A few steps forward, and you can leave the gray fog behind.

"The king has decreed that no living being may set foot in the Immortal Realm, so we can only escort our distinguished guest here."

The old spirit driving the car spoke politely.

"Thank you."

Li Lan took out the Heavenly King Tower and housed the Sword Saint Dugu Yibai inside.

The Heavenly King Pagoda is a top-tier sacred artifact, naturally capable of accommodating living beings, thus avoiding disturbing Dugu Yibai's enlightenment.

Dugu Yibai is exceptionally talented and a sage. He gained many insights within the refining array. If he fully digests them, he may take a giant leap forward.

Emerging from the gray fog, he had arrived at the border city!

Li Lan couldn't help but recall the last time he returned from the Abyss Realm, it was the same. However, that time he entered the Immortal Realm by using Tang Jian's identity.

This time, he stood directly below the city and said, "Li Lan of the Thousand Rivers Abyss Clan has returned from the gray mist. Please open the city gates!"

As soon as the gray mist withdrew, the celestial forces took over.

"Li Lan? Heh, without the Celestial Court's order, no one is allowed to enter the Celestial Realm!"

But a cold voice rang out from above the city walls.

The leader was a celestial general!

Li Lan frowned. What was going on?

How did the troops guarding the northern border become people from the Celestial Court?

What about the coalition of major forces in the northern border region?

He immediately took out a small sword and a magic mirror, and activated them.

This is a token given to him by the Sun Moon Sect and the Sword Sect. Once activated, it will allow him to immediately establish contact with the two major powers.

After the message was delivered, Li Lan waited silently below the city.

On the city wall, the celestial soldiers and generals of the Celestial Court were busy at work, and many of them looked down at Li Lan with mockery in their eyes.

"Is this the madman?"

"He dares to claim he can defeat the Gray Mist? Hah, in the end, it was our Celestial Court that did all the work..."

"Just a charlatan!"

Many people shook their heads.

The gossip carried by the wind reached Li Lan's ears, and his heart sank as he analyzed everything.

"Young friend Li Lan, we've arrived!"

With a loud shout, Mu Jianxian and Cao Yueshu finally arrived. Seeing Li Lan standing alone below the city, Cao Yueshu roared, "What do you mean by this? Do you even know who he is?!"

"He is Li Lan! He was the one who orchestrated the main war in the Northern Frontier, he was the one who extracted the Primordial Divine Source, and he was the one who, alone, entered the gray fog. Is this how you treat a returning hero?"

He was really angry.

But the celestial general guarding the city coldly replied, "We are ordered to guard the border. We only know the orders of the Celestial Court. The Celestial Court does not allow anyone to enter!"

"Who knows if he's a spy sent by the Gray Mist?"

Cao Yueshu roared, "This is the Northern Frontier!"

The Wooden Sword Immortal's sword flashed, and killing intent flickered in his eyes: "How can a hero allow himself to be humiliated by such lowly scoundrels? Either open the city gates, or I will fight you to the death!"

The city's guardian general's expression finally changed; he hadn't expected these two to be so aggressive.

After hesitating for a moment, he finally snorted coldly and said, "Open the city gates!"

The array shifted, the restrictions dissipated, and the city gate slowly opened, allowing Li Lan to step inside.

"Young Master Li, you're finally back."

Cao Yueshu and the other person excitedly came forward to greet them.

"What's going on?" Li Lan asked, glancing at the numerous celestial soldiers and generals.

Cao Yueshu sighed and said:

"Just today, a covenant was issued by the Celestial Court. It is said that the Celestial Court has made peace with many alien kings in the gray fog and will not invade the Celestial Realm for a hundred years."

"The news caused a sensation throughout the land, and everyone praised the Celestial Court."

"One of the conditions for the peace talks is that the northern border will be directly under the control of the Celestial Court, and the Northern Frontier Allied Forces will no longer have the right to interfere in border affairs."

As he spoke, his smile became somewhat bitter: "The Celestial Court advocates peace and has won a century of peace. Now, it is widely known throughout the world that the Celestial Court has found a way to coexist peacefully with the Gray Mist. The spirit of peace has taken hold in just one day!"
