Chapter 369: Stepping into the River of Time

~6 min read 1,197 words

As Gu Han's words fell, Little Wolf immediately nodded arrogantly.

Awoo!

That affirmative tone told everyone.

Little Wolf's meaning was that everything would be on its shoulders.

Through telepathy, Gu Han understood Little Wolf's current abilities.

He then turned his gaze to Bai Ce and the giant fish-bird.

"We must kill the War God once more for Little Wolf to find its weakness."

Bai Ce nodded heavily and grinned,

"If we had to kill this Fellow ten times, it might be difficult, but just killing it once is on me."

After saying that, Bai Ce felt his condition mostly recovered, and he immediately raised his heavy sword and pursued.

After receiving Gu Han's approval, the giant fish-bird likewise took action.

However, to guard against the possible appearance of a black-robed swordsman, he did not directly reveal his true form.

Instead, he controlled the sea currents to assist Xiao Wandi and Bai Ce in suppressing the War God.

After its rebirth, the War God's strength was already enough to suppress the similarly reborn Xiao Wandi.

Even when facing Xiao Wandi and Bai Ce together, it showed no weakness.

But adding the giant fish-bird, who is also a Martial Emperor, the War God ultimately found itself unable to withstand four fists with its two, falling into a disadvantage.

Even so, the War God stubbornly held on for nearly half an incense stick's time before finally collapsing in grief, leaning on its last golden halberd.

The next moment, a golden light enveloped the fallen War God's body.

"Xiao Hui!"

"Partner!"

An Jianan and Bai Ce, seeing the golden light appear, immediately turned and shouted at Gu Han.

Without Gu Han's command, Little Wolf raised its head and howled.

And its body began to rapidly grow, stopping only when its shoulder height approached 1.5 meters.

For a wolf demon beast, a shoulder height of 1.5 meters under normal conditions already counts as a large wolf!

Immediately afterward, Little Wolf closed its eyes and let out a resonant howl.

Visible pink ripples spread outward from Little Wolf, enveloping the War God's golden light.

At that moment, the golden light on the War God seemed to be restrained.

Along with it, the War God's soaring aura also began to rapidly cease.

"Success?"

Bai Ce and the others felt the War God's aura cease rising, and they all felt delighted.

Even if this time we failed to break the War God's weakness, as long as we keep it at its current strength.

They could kill it a hundred times, even a thousand times, and it would not be a problem!

However, before they could rejoice for long, they felt the War God's aura begin to rise rapidly again.

"Roar!"

From the pink mist came an angry roar, causing everyone's faces to drastically change.

"Even the power of ages cannot stop it?"

An Jianan couldn't help but sink her face like water, beginning to think of a solution.

Just then, Gu Han's warm voice sounded in her ear,

"Not so."

"I have found the War God's weakness, but I need to enter its River of Time."

"After I enter the River of Time, you must hold out until I return—can you do that?"

Gu Han said those last words to Bai Ce and Xiao Wandi.

An Jianan, lacking combat strength, could only rely on Xiao Wandi and Bai Ce to restrain the War God.

Moreover, it was not just about facing the War God.

Xiao Wandi and Bai Ce also had to guard against a black-robed swordsman who might launch a surprise attack at any moment!

"Rest assured, even if I had to sacrifice a thousand lives, I would pin it down here!"

Xiao Wandi clenched his fists, ready at any moment to battle the War God's rebirth.

Even if the black-robed swordsman returns, with his undying ability he is confident he can restrain both sides!

Although Bai Ce lacks resurrection ability, he also nodded heavily at Gu Han,

"Partner, you can go ahead without worry."

He didn't say many guarantees, but he would fulfill his promise with his life.

Gu Han naturally trusted the two, then turned his gaze to Zhang Hao and the others,

"The safety of Teacher An Jianan is now in your hands."

Zhang Hao and the others, who had been unable to help with anything due to their busyness, felt guilty that Gu Han had saved them all.

Now that there was a place where they could be of use, they eagerly promised to do their best.

"Little brother, rest assured; even if we lose our lives here, we will definitely protect Teacher An Jianan's safety."

After the arrangements were made, Gu Han, together with the giant fish-bird, stepped onto the River of Time condensed by Little Wolf for them, the War God's River of Time.

Thousands of years of experience flashed before Gu Han's eyes like a revolving lantern.

Countless memories surged into Gu Han's mind, making him feel as if his head would split open and almost explode on the spot.

After the intense pain faded, Gu Han slowly opened his eyes.

He then realized he was in an unfamiliar place.

Next, a clamor of discussion rose in his ears.

"The newly forged sword‑shield sells for only five thousand Sword Edge coins!"

"Have you heard? His Majesty recently led troops to capture another city, incorporating it into Sword Edge City's territory."

"In my opinion, we should directly conscript those people as battle servants; only those who perform outstandingly can become members of Sword Edge City! His Majesty is still too merciful."

"Sword Edge City is merely martial‑focused, not slave‑owners; your conduct does not match our style."

Before Gu Han lay countless armored warriors wielding weapons, chatting in all directions.

Along the street, many vendors sold various weapons and armor.

"Is this the Sword Edge City from the War God's memory?"

Gu Han quickly deduced the situation from the passersby's chatter.

"Hey, young man, are you also here to join the Sword Edge Duel?"

Just then, Gu Han suddenly felt another aura approaching.

He turned around and saw a shifty‑eyed merchant.

Seeing Gu Han turn, the merchant immediately gave a hehe laugh, rubbed his hands, and said,

"All my weapons are crafted by outstanding artisans; if you want to enter the Sword Edge Duel, they will surely give you a hand."

Gu Han raised an eyebrow,

"If you truly have good goods, why bother soliciting customers on the street?"

The merchant, hearing this, was not angry but gave a hehe laugh and said,

"You should also know that many things cannot see the light; otherwise they might invite disaster."

Gu Han, hearing this, became slightly interested.

Anyway, having arrived in the War God's river of ages, he had no clues for the time being.

Perhaps the Sword Edge Duel is the key to breaking the situation.

Since this person came to him voluntarily, going to have a look would do no harm.

Thinking this, Gu Han followed the merchant to a secluded corner.

Next, the merchant opened his cherished parcel.

A faint golden light burst from the parcel.

Upon seeing the weapon inside clearly, Gu Han stood there, stunned.
