Li Li Yanyan, though confused, gently embraced her sister and softly patted her back to soothe her.

"It's not painful; everything will get better."

Li Li Yanyan was always like this—she never spoke pretty words, but when you were suffering, she became your best shelter, your solid support. Her love, never spoken aloud, was poured entirely into her actions.

After some time, Xiao Lan confided in Li Li Yanyan everything that had recently happened: meeting Ye Si Ti, and Lin Yu's sudden departure to the Iron Dimension.

Li Li Yanyan looked at Xiao Lan with guilt; her sister had endured so much, yet she had known nothing. She fell silent, about to speak, when she heard her daughter anxiously say.

"Sister, I'm going to find Lin Yu—he's definitely in trouble. Look, this is the 'Shape-Shifting Magic Box' he gave me; it feels like it's telling me Lin Yu is in danger, and urgently so. I must go there, to the Iron Dimension, to help him."

Li Li Yanyan's words of comfort suddenly stopped; hearing her sister planned to go to the Iron Dimension, she cried out urgently: "No, you absolutely cannot go."

Xiao Lan was startled by Li Li Yanyan's intense reaction and asked in confusion: "Sister, why are you reacting so strongly? Why can't I go to the Iron Dimension?"

"In short, you cannot go to the Iron Dimension—it's not a place you can set foot in. The dangers there exceed your understanding."

"Sister, why do you know the Iron Dimension is full of peril? You must know something, don't you?" Xiao Lan was deeply suspicious.

Li Li Yanyan fell silent for a moment, deciding to speak frankly with her sister; she knew that unless she convinced her, her sister's nature would drive her straight to the Iron Dimension.

【360】 Go find Lin Yu—how much do you know about the Silver Dimension!

"Xiao Lan, how much do you actually know about this dimension?"

"From Lin Yu, I've learned a lot: the entire world has twelve dimensions and the Demon Realm, and the seven dragons of the Judgment by force. Lin Yu is currently facing Diabolo Mozun, and the bodyguard of the Demon Lord I once encountered."

Xiao Lan detailed everything she knew to her sister.

"What? You've already encountered the Demon Lord's bodyguard? Did they try to kill you?" Li Li Yanyan cried out, frantic and furious.

"Sister, it's fine—back then, Lin Yu intervened, and I was completely unharmed."

Soon after, Li Li Yanyan calmed down and said helplessly: "Three-six-zero—I never thought that after hiding for so long, we'd still be found by people from the Demon Realm. It's our weakness—we've let our family face so much! I'm already in my twenties, and my combat power hasn't even reached forty thousand."

"Sister, don't say that—you're the strongest in my eyes," Xiao Lan comforted her.

Li Li Yanyan smiled faintly.

"By the way, sister, you said we've been hiding for so long—what's the secret behind our family?" Xiao Lan asked curiously.

Li Li Yanyan took a deep breath and said slowly: "Then I'll tell you everything. You know our world is called the Gold Dimension, right?"

"Mm-hmm!" Xiao Lan nodded slightly.

"The six most powerful clans in the Gold Dimension: Gu, Hua, Tian, Lei, Lan, Li."

"These families have been passed down for generations, and there are still many powerful individuals hidden in the Gold Dimension who never formed clans. In the past, our surnames were all immensely strong."

"But a thousand years ago, in that great war, our ancestors either died or were severely wounded, causing our lineages to gradually decline."

"A thousand years ago, the Gold Dimension was the strongest of all dimensions—indeed, it stood above all others under the leadership of the Shuo Jin Zhe."

"In that ancient battle, the Shuo Jin Zhe led the top warriors of the twelve dimensions to fight a deadly war against the Demon Realm beyond the borders. Diabolo Mozun and the Shuo Jin Zhe neither gained the upper hand—but for some unknown reason, shortly after the war, the Shuo Jin Zhe vanished into another world."

"The Mozun, battered and wounded, nearly wiped out all our white-path elites."

"Yet he himself was left on the brink of death, and thus no one in any dimension has ever seen the Mozun's true face. Though severely injured, his assault caused our martial traditions to be lost, leaving the white path in passive defense."

"The martial system of the Gold Dimension collapsed after that fierce battle, leaving our overall strength pitifully weak—in truth, all twelve dimensions are now powerless to resist."

Xiao Lan stared wide-eyed at Li Li Yanyan, momentarily speechless.

Before Xiao Lan could speak, Li Li Yanyan continued.

"Several hundred years ago, a prodigy emerged in the Iron Dimension, leading it to rise gradually and become the strongest white-path bulwark among the twelve dimensions, halting the Demon Realm's invasions."

"Thus, the Iron Dimension became the primary battleground for white-path adepts against the Demon Realm—and the most perilous place of all."

"Your current combat power, barely over ten thousand thanks to weapons, is nothing in the Iron Dimension. So I absolutely forbid you from going there. Lin Yu didn't want you to go—and I agree."

Hearing of the Iron Dimension's plight, Xiao Lan became even more resolute.

"Then I must go to the Iron Dimension to find Lin Yu—where it's so dangerous, he must be in trouble."

Li Li Yanyan snapped.

"With your current strength, going to the Iron Dimension won't help Lin Yu—it'll only hold him back."

Hearing this, Xiao Lan's heart shattered; tears welled up, and she was consumed by self-blame.

"Why am I so weak? I can't help Lin Yu at all—I'm just a burden. Even at school, he protected me while being powerless himself. Now he's in a dangerous situation, and I can only watch helplessly."

Thinking of this, she felt even more heartbroken.

Seeing this, Li Li Yanyan regretted her harsh words.

She said tenderly.

"Xiao Lan, I'll let you go find Lin Yu—but you must wait until I'm fully prepared. Absolutely no acting on your own."

Hearing her father's words, Xiao Lan's spirits sank terribly.

"What good would it do? I'm just a burden—I can't do anything in the Iron Dimension. I'm useless."

Seeing her sister like this, Li Li Yanyan's heart felt like it was being cut with knives.

"Xiao Lan, you're not a burden. I don't think so, and Lin Yu certainly doesn't think so. Besides, you have a vital role to play."

Xiao Lan forced back her sorrow and asked:

"Sister, 4.6—do you have a way to get to Lin Yu's side?"

Li Li Yanyan nodded.

"What way, sister? Tell me quickly!"

Li Li Yanyan sighed: "You've got a lover and forgotten your family."

"Don't rush. I told you our family has endured for generations—we naturally have our own secrets. I believe the trouble the Mozun Sect and the Demon Realm brought you was because of these."

"Sister, what could possibly interest someone like the Mozun?"

"Before I tell you, I want to know—what is Lin Yu's combat power level?"

【361】 Coordinate with the divine artifact's pressure to subdue demonic creatures, prepare to travel to another dimension!

Xiao Lan recalled: "The last time I met Ye Si Ti, he had already broken through 40,000 points; now I'm not sure."

"Lin Yu's talent is truly impressive—perhaps he is the 'Shuo Jin Zhe' who appears only once every thousand years!" Li Li Yanyan silently marveled.

After a moment of silence, he spoke slowly.

"Actually, our family hides a shocking secret: we possess the treasures of Control-Magic Liquid and Seal-Magic Device."

"Control-Magic Liquid allows one to harness the power of the Demon Realm and gain demonic energy, but unlike demonic mutants or demonic creatures, the user remains a pure White Path energy user, merely able to manipulate two entirely different forces."

"The corruption of Demon Realm energy is neutralized, allowing White Path energy and demonic energy to merge, forming a stronger combat power."

"The user can freely wield power across the Twelve Timelines, unbound by any temporal restrictions and causing no damage to any timeline."

"It can also pull back energy users on the verge of demonic transformation."

"But it has seven drawbacks: only those from the Gold Timeline may use it, and due to its overwhelming power, if the user's strength is insufficient, they may die instantly—exercise extreme caution."

Li Li Yanyan continued.

"Control-Magic Liquid must be paired with another divine artifact to reveal its full power; using it alone only enhances combat strength."

"What divine artifact must it be paired with?" Xiao Lan asked anxiously.

"Well, I don't know much either. The ancient book detailing how to combine it with the other treasure is gone, so I can't explain it."

"Still, even this alone can significantly boost Lin Yu's combat index—it's a considerable help."

As for the Seal-Magic Device, it can be called an ultra-evolved version of an energy-suppressing artifact, specifically designed to combat demonic creatures on a large scale.

Its power lies in weakening demonic creatures' combat strength, though it cannot fully suppress them—its effect ranges around fifty percent. For something like a Lone Soul, it can halve their power.

For Chi Mei, it reduces strength by thirty percent; for Wang Liang, at most twenty percent; by the time of Yan Kui, only ten percent can be suppressed.

Even for a Demon Lord, it can barely suppress five percent. Nevertheless, in large-scale battles, it remains an invaluable treasure.

The Energy Countermeasure Device, however, is a small gadget that temporarily disables White Path energy users the moment it is activated—unfortunately, its range is extremely limited.

Xiao Lan stared at her sister in astonishment, her eyes filled with disbelief: "I never imagined our family hid such things—why have you never mentioned them before?"

"Girl, if this got out, our Li family would become a thorn in the Demon Clan's eye—something they'd rush to avoid," Li Li Yanyan said solemnly.

"As for Control-Magic Liquid, I can give it to Lin Xuan to help him strengthen his power; as for the Seal-Magic Device, he must retrieve it himself. You cannot protect it—I will arrange people to accompany you to the Iron Timeline to ensure you aren't hurt."

Li Li Yanyan gave these instructions, her eyes filled with concern.

Xiao Lan looked at her sister with gratitude, warmth surging in her heart: "Thank you, sister—you always think so much of me."

"You're my sister—what thanks? But you absolutely cannot act alone. Wait until I've made all arrangements before you go to the Iron Timeline—do you understand?" Li Li Yanyan warned.

"Yes, yes, I understand. But sister, you have to hurry—I'm worried Lin Yu will get hurt," Xiao Lan pleaded urgently.

Li Li Yanyan sighed, half-joking, half-serious: "Sigh, children grow up and forget their elders. Now your heart belongs only to Lin Yu—I'm being forgotten."
