"Young Madame Jin, if Sect Leader Jiang were to see you. He will surely cry in happiness."

Jiang Yanli agreed with him. When she came back to life, her brother never leave her side, and couldn't asleep without assuring him that she will not disappear at any moment. "Please keep our presence secret for now. I do not want to cause chaos in the cultivation world. Now that I found out that we traveled back to the past which was 17 years from our original timeline, I do not want to expose my grandson to any of their hatred and confrontation. They will blame everything again on A-Xian."

"I too couldn't believe that time travel did exist. But with so many things that happened previously, I just don't know what else to believe." The sect elder sighed heavily. "You mentioned your grandson. Is he the one with you right now, young Madame Jin?"

"Yes. This is Jin Yu, my grandson."

"If you will be resurrected 17 years from now, Sect Leader Jin must be 36 already. He took his time to get married and bear an heir."

"I am not the only one who was resurrected."

"Is young master Jin Zixuan came back with you too?"

"Yes. He is the current leader of the Jin Sect."

"I will no longer ask how you came back but I'm glad." He nodded continuously. "I'm glad."

"Yes. His growth was different from those of normal children. I don't know how to explain it and you might be thinking that I am crazy so it would be great if his father from our timeline is here. I know they will come and bring us back to our timeline once they figured out where we are."

The room was filled with silence until Jin Yanli felt a tug on her dress. She looked down at the child who was lying on her thigh. "Grandma, I am hungry."

"Oh! I'm so sorry. I will go and get some food. For now, while we are waiting for Sect Leader's return, please stay in this chamber for the meantime to avoid suspicions and unnecessary gossip. I will send him a butterfly message so he could travel back home as soon as he can. I needed to inform him as well that he must go back with Sect Leader Jin."

"Thank you, Elder Jiang."

Meanwhile, some of the disciples are getting impatient including Jin Ling of the past. However, seeing (P) Sizhui waiting patiently for the five minutes to pass, he gripped his sword and sat on the floor silently.

"How long are we supposed to stay here?" One of Jin's disciples asked.

"Have patience. We are waiting for the people from the future's signal." A disciple from Jiang Sect told him.

They focused their gaze on Jin Ling who was from the future. He is currently sitting, his eyes were open but he seems to be concentrating on something they were not sure of. Only the people from the future knew why.

"What's wrong, Jin Ling?" Future Jingyi asked when he noticed Future Jin Ling's face tensed.

Future Jin Ling whispered, "The fierce corpses were possessed by demons. He is fighting them now. We cannot allow anyone to leave or they will be in danger."

(F) Jingyi, "Just what I thought so. The corpses are not acting right. When we're outside, they don't dare to attack these people from the past, rather few tried to attack us."

"Those who attacked us were possibly not possessed yet and we've been able to hide our spiritual power but being unable to sense it, they possibly thought that we are commoners. He is cleaning our way now. We cannot leave this place." (F) Jin Ling whispered back.

Jiang Cheng notices the two talking in a silent tone. They could hear their muffled voices but he couldn't comprehend. He is close to losing his patience so he stood and walked toward them. "What are you two whispering about? Care to share?"
