"What? You want to escape?" Qingyin was taken aback and quickly pulled Xu Chen to a corner. "Come, let's go back to the Starry Palace first and talk there!"

At the Starry Palace, Qingyin brought Xu Chen to her own room before speaking. "Xu Chen, we can't do this, it's too risky! Actually, Tuomo still has some conscience. Even though I know he has desired me for hundreds of years, he has never forced me! Of course, he has used many means to pressure me, but how could I surrender to him! We can endure the appropriate humiliation and persist until you are strong enough! If we escape now, it will give him an excuse. Then, if he forces himself on us again, we won't have any reason to refute him! Besides, from his perspective, I did make a mistake and it would be reasonable for him to punish me!"

"So, Qingyin, do you want to be spanked by him?" Xu Chen asked directly.

"Ah?" Qingyin blushed. "Of course not! Who would want that!"

"If you don't want it, I want it even less! I can't accept such a thing! No matter what, I can't accept it! Besides, Qingyin, you always think that your choices are right, enduring humiliation for me and the sisters! But I dislike this about you. Don't you even have the courage to take risks and fight?"

Qingyin fell silent for a moment and said, "Xu Chen, if you have made up your mind to take this risk, will you have no regrets no matter what happens?"

"No regrets!"

"Alright then, Xu Chen, I will run away with you!" Qingyin said.

"Qingyin..." Xu Chen's face lit up with joy.

"But, this escape is very dangerous, even life-threatening..."

"I'm not afraid!"

"Xu Chen... since that's the case, I can only use that secret technique..."

"Secret technique?"

"Xu Chen, just like how you came to this world with the power of your thoughts, after I arrived here, I discovered that I had mastered an incredible secret technique!" Qingyin said.

"The technique of space-time teleportation!"

"What?!" Xu Chen was astounded.

"In simple terms, I can use the technique to record the spatial and temporal coordinates at a certain point in time. Then, anytime within the next three days, we can return to that point in time! In other words, we can go back to the past and have a chance to start over! If, by any chance, we are caught by Tuomo during our escape, in a moment of crisis, I can bring you back here, to this room, and then we can think of other strategies!" Qingyin explained.

"What? Is there really such an extraordinary skill?"

"Yes, and even if either of us gets injured anywhere in the next three days, we can return completely healed to the present moment. However, any gains or items obtained in the future cannot be brought back!" Qingyin said.

"There... there is such a miraculous technique in this world?" Xu Chen exclaimed. "Indeed, there is always a glimmer of possibility in everything! We have been drawn into this terrifying world, but it has also given us unimaginable talents!"

"However, this technique has its limitations and side effects..." Qingyin lowered her head.

"What are the side effects?"

"This secret technique can only be used once a month, and once we return to the recorded point in time, the memory of that time and space disappears, and it cannot be used again. Additionally, we must memorize the spatial and temporal coordinates beforehand. Without memorizing them, we cannot go back to the past."

"Oh, so there are these limitations!" Xu Chen realized that the possibility of escaping before seeing Xizun Tuomo was gone.

"And... there is another side effect. In any forbidden technique, there will always be consequences..."

"Yes, Qingyin, what consequences are there?"

"If I use this technique three times consecutively because of a man, after returning to the recorded point in time, I... my heart and body will fall in love with that man! And currently, there is no known way to break this spell!" Qingyin said.

"What? There's such a thing! Then... Qingyin, you have to be cautious about using it in the future!"

"The problem is... I have already used it twice on Lord Xizun Tuomo!""What??? This......."

"I am truly sorry, Xu Chen. I didn't want this either, but the reason why I have been able to remain innocent amidst these wicked individuals for hundreds of years is because of this space-time secret technique. After all, if I start over, I can easily find a way to overcome their traps! But this technique cannot be used endlessly!" Qingyin lowered her head.

"Of course!" Qingyin quickly added when she saw Xu Chen's unhappy expression, "Even if I really fall in love with him! But my memories, intellect, and rationality are intact, and I will never reveal or do anything to betray you! Because I know this is the backlash of the secret technique and not my true intentions. By then, I might not love you anymore and love another man, but I will endure and suppress my own feelings! And you, if you ever find yourself in that situation, you must help me restrain myself! If necessary, you can even kill me!"

"Qingyin, I will never kill you! I love you! I love you dearly! No matter what you become! Besides, this is caused by the secret technique and not your true intentions! I understand! However, how can we break the backlash?" Xu Chen sincerely said.

"In fact, there is a simple method! In three months, I will use the space-time secret technique on you three times. That way, my true intentions will be to love you, and the backlash will also be falling in love with you. The backlash itself will become meaningless, and it will naturally be broken! But, right now, you are not a man... So it seems ineffective. It doesn't work for women..." Qingyin lowered her head.

"How can... it be like this..."

"So, Xu Chen, in this situation, can you still run away with me? It's better for us to endure and accept the punishment than..."

"No! We must not run! If we give up once, we will only step by step fall into the abyss, even if it means sacrificing everything. I choose the path of resistance! Qingyin, you remember the space-time point, and then we will plan our escape!" Xu Chen decisively said.

"I understand! Xu Chen, in case... please remember, whoever I fall in love with, it is not my true heart!"

"Understood!"

"By the way, Xu Chen, you should refine the high-grade Dao God Jade first, and then we can remember the space-time!" Qingyin said.

"Okay!"

In a moment, Xu Chen finished refining the high-grade Dao God Jade. His strength had reached the peak of Tianbing, just one step away from Tianjiang!

"Then, I will remember the space-time point! Hold my hand," Qingyin said.

The hands of the two were held together, and Xu Chen felt a cold flowing water lingering in the room, emitting a pure and transparent radiance. It felt as if the heavens and earth were changing, and the space-time was in chaos, but after a moment, everything returned to normal! In the room, a small blue seal appeared!

"We succeeded! The space-time point has been recorded!" Qingyin used her method to hide the seal behind a cabinet and said, "This seal must be kept hidden. Once it is destroyed, we won't be able to come back! If we return and fall into the abyss of space-time distortion!"

"Okay..."

"So, Xu Chen, I am ready! Let's escape!"

"Yes! Qingyin!"
