The Strongest Prodigy Doctor

Chapter 896 - 996: The Tragedy of Sand City, Temporal Chaos

"You... you must be Wang Ye!" Ye Tianfan said with some certainty. When Ye Tianfan thought that this old man might be Wang Ye, he took a closer look at him and recalled Wang Ye's attire and appearance!This old man's appearance was very similar to Wang Ye's. His clothes, ignoring the dirt and the washed-out white stains, were exactly what Wang Ye wore when they first met, unchanged at all. However, the hairstyle had some changes, but let's leave that for now. Despite the hollow cheeks, Ye Tianfan could still feel that the face was quite similar to Wang Ye's!

"Senior Brother Tianfan, it is indeed me!" Wang Ye said with a cheerful smile!

"You... how did you become like this? What really happened? What I experienced back then, was it real? And also, those orphans from Sand City? Even though those things have weathered, I can still recognize them. Those things were exactly what I placed there!" Ye Tianfan was eager to ask a series of questions.

After all, according to the Daoist Master Dikuo, these ruins have existed for a long time, even longer than the Pingyue Sect!

"And, who exactly are you?" Ye Tianfan asked lastly. This was the most crucial question.

"I am a disciple of the Pingyue Sect, Wang Ye!" Wang Ye didn't answer Ye Tianfan's previous questions first but replied to the last one instead!

"I just came out from the Pingyue Sect. No one there knows you, and the Pingyue Sect doesn't have a disciple named Wang Ye!" Ye Tianfan said seriously.

Upon hearing Ye Tianfan's words, Wang Ye smiled and said, "Actually, I am..."

In the Pingyue Sect, after Ye Tianfan left, Daoist Master Dikuo said to several Elders next to him, "When Celestial Master Tianfan mentioned the name Wang Ye, I felt a trace of familiarity!"

The Elders beside him also agreed, "Me too, I feel like I've heard it somewhere!"

"Yes, but I just can't remember when our Pingyue Sect ever had someone named Wang Ye!"

"Wait a minute!" Suddenly an Elder seemed to remember something, and after saying this, hurried towards the rear hall of the Pingyue Sect's main hall, saying while running, "I seem to recall where Wang Ye appeared!"

Daoist Master Dikuo and the other Elders, seeing that this Elder remembered something, although not knowing why he was running, followed him after exchanging glances. They wanted to see where exactly Wang Ye had appeared!

When they arrived at the rear hall, they found that the first Elder who ran there directly opened the door of the ancestral hall and went in!

Seeing this Elder's reckless action, Daoist Master Dikuo frowned but still led the other Elders into the ancestral hall!

After entering the ancestral hall, the leading Elder pointed at the ancestral tablets above and said, "Look, Wang Ye's name, he was an Elder of our Pingyue Sect seven hundred years ago, and the only Array Master of our Pingyue Sect! But it seems he went missing!"

"What?" Daoist Master Dikuo exclaimed in amazement!

"Actually, I was a disciple of the Pingyue Sect seven hundred years ago!" After Wang Ye said this, he looked at Ye Tianfan to see what kind of reaction he had!

"What? Seven hundred years ago?" As expected, upon hearing this timing, Ye Tianfan was quite shocked!

"Seven hundred years ago, how is this possible? What's going on with you now?" Ye Tianfan asked in a daze, looking at Wang Ye!

"Hehehe, this matter should be told from when I previously Sealed Sand City!" Wang Ye began.

"Seal? What do you mean? Didn't I just watch you at the time of the Seal?" Ye Tianfan asked puzzledly!

"Not that time, it was when I was in the temporal interstice and Sealed it again!" Wang Ye replied!

"Temporal interstice, what do you mean?" Ye Tianfan was somewhat lost at this moment.

"The thing is, seven hundred years ago, I came here for training, this place was exactly where Sand City was located back then. At that time, I was still a relatively low-skilled Array practitioner, just like how you saw me!" Wang Ye began to recount the detailed process!

"Moreover, at that time, when I Sealed Sand City, I used an Array I wasn't very proficient at, resulting in when I had just sent those orphans to a safe place, the Array exploded, dragging me along with Sand City and those surviving orphans to a special place, which I called a time node!" Wang Ye said!

"That time node kept repeating a certain period, endlessly looping! I only became aware after looping for a long time. Perhaps because I once made a mistake in casting an Array at the loop point, leading to some other issues with the Array, causing me to awaken! I tried everything but couldn't escape this time node nor stop it. No matter what I did, at the time the Array exploded, the entire time node would reset to the beginning when I first entered Sand City!" Wang Ye said here, his eyes flashing a hint of despair, showing how tortured he was during that time.

Seeing this hint of despair, Ye Tianfan suddenly felt Wang Ye's mood. Endlessly looping, if you were not aware it might be bearable, but the problem was once you were aware, it felt utterly helpless!

"Fortunately, there was a time you appeared!" Wang Ye said!

"I appeared?" Ye Tianfan asked in confusion, "You mean I also entered this time node?"

"Yes, after thirty-seven thousand time loops, I finally figured out some things about you, including which Sect you were in, what major things you did before. Most importantly, I roughly understood what happened in the seven hundred years after I entered the time node and your time!" Wang Ye sighed and said!

Upon hearing this number, Ye Tianfan was dumbfounded, thirty-seven thousand loops? Meaning he stayed for the whole thirty-seven thousand loops in the node, but in his memory, it was just once!

"Then what happened next? How did we get out of the time node?" Ye Tianfan asked curiously, but then with some fear added, "Aren't we still in the time node now?"

If we were still in the time node now, saying so much would be useless. Once time refreshed, it would all be forgotten!
