because, he had promised his grandfather to live life with a clear conscience before.
Many people had sneered at Bai Yunfei’s stubbornness: “A clear conscience? Don’t make me laugh. In this cruel real world, a clear conscience is a worthless piece of shit!”
But Bai Yunfei did not care about them. He had been sticking to living alone for 9 years, regardless of how low his status was, how humble his job was and how impoverished he was — with a clear conscience.
“Now my body is much stronger than before as well. Later I’m gonna carry a few more sacks of rice every day so that I can start saving some money and repair mom’s and grandpa’s graves…” Bai Yunfei walked as he considered this. After patting the copper coins in his bosom, he slightly quickened his pace. The exit of the alley was not far in front of him. Buy several steamed buns and he could just go home.
Right at this moment, he, walking forwards with his head lowered, did not notice that a rift was suddenly cut open in the empty space behind him. Several masses of black mist flew out from it, one of which even seemed to be encompassing a book… Either by accident or by design, those several masses of black mist and that book all flew in the direction of Bai Yunfei together. They dashed into his body in just about the blink of an eye.
Bai Yunfei only felt an emptiness inside his head then lost consciousness and fell down weakly to the ground.
The moment he dropped to the ground, a transparent mass of air urgently came out from that rift, which had not closed yet. It also flew towards Yunfei but instead of going into his body, it surrounded him completely.
Everything in a plane of existence contained in itself the laws of the plane. When it attempted to break into another plane, it would be repelled and eliminated by the laws of that plane.
However, once it managed to enter that plane, it would be assimilated, by the laws of this plane!
The several soul fragments and that one book had already begun to merge with Bai Yunfei as soon as they had gone into his body. Subsequently, the pursuing force of the planar laws only enfolded Yunfei’s body for a short while. After eliminating a small part of the soul fragments that had been unable to merge with him in time, it immediately vanished into thin air as if it had never appeared.
Bai Yunfei appeared totally unchanged as well. He was still lying on the ground like he was sleeping soundly.
About 10 minutes later, he slightly moved then sat up, but his face was full of confusion, his eyes unfocused as well. Obviously, he still had not regained composure.
After sitting in stupefaction for a long time, he supported himself on the wall and stood up. He gently patted his head with a hand. It looked like he was murmuring to himself but also looked like he was talking to someone.
“I am Tang Long… No, I am Bai Yunfei…”
“I came from the Earth… No… I’m from the Tianhun continent…”
“I’m an interdimensional traveler… I’m a commoner in Luoshi City…”
“Water is formed from H and O…”
“Save some money to repair mom’s and grandpa’s graves…”
