In the suburbs, under the shade of lush trees, a French-style villa stands alone as if it were untouched by the world.

It is far removed from the hustle and bustle of the world, exuding a tranquil atmosphere and conveying a sense of peaceful tranquility.

A soft creaking sound came from the courtyard. Zhong Ning lay on the rocking chair with her eyes closed, gently swaying, looking languid.

On the lawn at her feet, a pure white Ragdoll cat lay lazily.

The roses planted around it shaded it from the sun.

The sunlight shone on my face, carrying a slight warmth, while a gentle breeze carried the fragrance of flowers and coolness, dispelling the heat.

"Xiao Qi, this world is strange. We've been here for over a year and haven't encountered anything or anyone special."

"This world has no plot, and you, host, won't let me question the Heavenly Dao, so let's just treat it as a vacation."

Xiaoqi, oh no, the Ragdoll cat on the ground wiggled its tail.

It has been coming out to sunbathe with its host every day lately, and because it has so many points now, it has bought a cat skin.

The main reason is that when the host is in the mood, he massages his back and feels very comfortable.

Zhong Ning thought about it and agreed: "Yeah."

No sooner had she finished speaking than Xiao Qi was scooped up from the ground by a hand.

A hand began stroking its fur on its back, and it instantly squinted its eyes in comfort.

At this moment, both the person and the cat were enjoying the tranquility of the afternoon with exceptional comfort.

Zhong Ning has been in this world for over a year. The original owner, Li Chu, was an orphan and was twenty-six years old this year.

Originally, I was living a typical nine-to-five job in a big city, just like everyone else.

Because he often stayed up late watching dramas, reading novels, and scrolling through videos, he suddenly died one day, and that's how he came to be.

After she arrived, she quit her job, earned enough money, and went to the suburbs to buy an old villa and renovate it, which is her current residence.

Since there were no missions or storylines, Li Chu decided to live a carefree, retirement-like life here.

As she was recalling these things, she keenly noticed some fluctuations in the air.

Almost at the same time she opened her eyes, the ragdoll cat in her arms, Xiao Qi, also opened her eyes.

Both the person and the cat looked up at the vortex in mid-air.

Xiao Qi: "It's a time-space portal. It seems that the Heavenly Dao sent you here to play."

Upon hearing this, Li Chu raised an eyebrow: "What do you mean by sending people to play with? This is clearly the world, not an ordinary world."

When she came into this world, she sensed unusual fluctuations in many places, but there were very thick walls in between, so no one knew.

Since nothing had happened during the year I was there, I thought it had nothing to do with me.

But since they've already brought her to her doorstep, it seems her life is bound to have its share of fun.

Here, the originally sunny weather suddenly turned into a strong wind, and the vortex in the sky, which could only be seen by Li Chu and Xiao Qi, grew larger and larger.

Meanwhile, in a fictional world called "The Legend of the Dark River".

The originally clear weather, with blue skies and white clouds, suddenly turned dark and became covered with thick clouds.

As the fierce wind suddenly arose and howled past, the sense of oppression increased dramatically.

Suddenly, a deep purple vortex appeared in the sky, starting from the size of the sun and growing until it blotted out the sky.

Around the vortex, lightning crackled incessantly, as if whips were lashing down from the sky.

This strange celestial phenomenon caused everyone to look up in the same direction.

In the underground river, Su Changhe and Su Muyu had just assumed the positions of patriarch and head of the Su family, respectively.

Inside the hall, the heads of the Su, Xie, and Mu families, along with some key members, were present.

Seeing the strange phenomenon outside, Su Changhe and Su Muyu stood up and led the others outside.

Mu Qingyang looked on and said in a low voice, "What's going on? It looks like the sky is about to collapse."

Beside her, Mu Xuewei frowned as she looked at the scene in the sky: "That vortex looks like it's going to suck people in."

Although Su Muyu and Su Yumo didn't speak, they both frowned slightly.

Everyone felt that the power of the lightning and the strange vortex carried a strong pressure and mysterious force, making them feel dangerous and uneasy.

Only Su Changhe was different. He looked up and laughed, "This is because Heaven knows that our Dark River is on an important day of rebirth, and has sent down this extraordinary phenomenon to celebrate for us."

“Changhe, this strange phenomenon from the sky must be extraordinary,” Su Muyu said.

Su Zhe looked at the sky and joked, "The patriarch is indeed the patriarch; he remains optimistic even in this situation."

As everyone was discussing this, several beams of light shot down from the depths of the vortex.

Some people were completely surrounded by light, and then, before anyone could react, they disappeared from the spot in the blink of an eye.

The sight caused a great uproar among the onlookers.

In the modern world, a fierce wind began to blow outside Li Chu's courtyard.

She watched as the wind threatened to destroy her flowers, and silently used her spiritual power to block the gale blowing into the courtyard.

Xiao Qi: "Host, where did Heaven send these people from? Are they people we know or strangers?"

Li Chu poured herself a cup of floral tea, took a slow sip, and then said, "I don't know. You'll find out soon enough."

Despite saying that, based on her previous experiences in the world, she guessed that it was someone she knew who had come.

Having just finished a cup of tea, her gaze pierced through the courtyard wall, looking towards a spot a hundred meters away.

"The guests have arrived."

At the same time, the vortex in the sky disappeared, and the wind and water calmed down, as if the previous commotion had never happened.

Outside, on a tree-lined avenue, the surrounding surveillance and satellite monitoring images flickered slightly.

At this crossroads, a group of ancient people in strange costumes suddenly appeared out of nowhere on the road.

Upon landing, everyone's first reaction was to be on guard.

"Where is this place? Aren't we in an underground river?"

"Su Muyu, Dog Dad, what are you all doing here? Where are we?" Bai Hehuai's shocked voice rang out.

Upon hearing her daughter's voice, Su Zhe quickly withdrew her gaze from observing the surroundings: "Daughter, what brings you here too?"

"A miracle doctor." Su Muyu nodded, then looked around to see who was there.

Seeing that Changhe was also there, followed by Changli, Yumo, Xuewei, Qingyang, the Divine Doctor, Uncle Zhe, Xie Qianji, Xie Qidao, and about ten people from the three families of Anhe.

"Brother Yu, do you know what's going on?" Mu Xuewei asked when she saw him looking over.

Su Muyu shook her head: "I don't know either."

"It seems like I was hit by a beam of light and then I ended up here. It's really strange," Bai Hehuai said.

"We'll see how things go first."
