There was still about a week's time before the Skills Competition, so relatively speaking, there was still plenty of time, so he was not too fast. Coincidentally, because he was afraid of the existence of Seven Monsters of Southern Ling, Yao Yuan's journey back home was full of bumps.

Since there was nothing going on now, Miao Ling was temporarily safe. Yao Yuan took this opportunity to prepare to wander around in a few other places.

Unknowingly, Yao Yuan had arrived at the village of Wang Jing, where he had lived for many years. This village seemed to have changed a lot compared to the village before.

Even his cheap father-in-law was sitting in front of his house, his eyes glazed over.

"Father-in-law? What are you doing sitting here? "

Yao Yuan felt that it was extremely interesting. Usually, Yao Yuan would look at Liu Neng who was constantly walking around, doing all sorts of things for his own business. It was really rare for him to be sitting on the ground leisurely like this.

"Father-in-law?"

Yao Yuan called out to her again softly, but in the end, no one replied. Yao Yuan thought that his father-in-law did not want to bother with him because he did not manage to protect the battlefield last time.

Since it was like that, Yao Yuan had no choice but to walk into the house to look for the others.

The mother-in-law was lying on the bed with a book in her hands. It was still placed on page 207, and she still didn't move at all.

Yao Yuan quietly walked over. At first, he thought that his mother-in-law had just fallen asleep, but who would have thought that even after walking up to her and calling out loudly in her ear, she still did not have any reaction.

This was rather strange.

To be precise, this was not a normal phenomenon.

Yao Yuan panicked, and the entire village became completely silent. Not to mention the usual hubbub, even the crowing and barking of chickens and dogs were reduced by a lot.

"This is abnormal."

Yao Yuan saw that Liu Xinyue's brother was still lying on the bed with that lazy look on her face. She hadn't changed, but she had to admit that Wang Jing Village had already become a "dead city".

Feeling that something was amiss, Yao Yuan immediately ran out of his father-in-law's home and entered the village. He discovered that all the people who appeared in front of him were frozen in place for a moment, and in the next second, the entire village seemed to have been cast by someone else.

Time stood still.

Yao Yuan thought of this possibility. It was just that such a fantasy could only appear in fantasy stories and not real life.

It was just that if that was the case, then there was really no way to explain the situation in front of him. In order to find the truth, Yao Yuan came to the entrance of the village once again.

Yao Yuan immediately used his wind attribute spirit energy to summon a cloud out, and stepped on it. Flying in the air, he looked down at the entire village from above, and didn't find anything different.

What kind of power was this?

Yao Yuan thought for a long time, but still could not come up with the best answer. Everything that appeared in front of his eyes seemed to have already proven the truth, as time truly stopped at this moment.

The reason why the current Yao Yuan was able to move about freely in this place was probably because the mysterious power that had stopped in time had already disappeared and did not appear again.

In order to preserve the scene in front of his eyes, Yao Yuan raised his phone, preparing to record the entire strange scene in front of him.

Yao Yuan turned on the camera on his phone and aimed the camera at the people of the village. However, at this time, the camera seemed to be broken, and he couldn't see anything at all.

"This …"

Yao Yuan was a little embarrassed.

Because he had never been used to using a phone, Yao Yuan rarely turned on his camera or anything like that. When he first saw this situation, Yao Yuan was very surprised, thinking that it was a problem with his phone, he quickly restarted the camera and planned to take another one.

However, the situation was the same as before. There was nothing to be seen.

This is strange, Yao Yuan muttered, as though he did not believe what he saw and specially found the phone in Liu Neng's pocket. This was the latest version of Hua Yao's mobile phone, the camera was perfect, Yao Yuan once again turned on the camera, but found out …

Yao Yuan gave up.

It was as if there was some kind of mysterious power concealing the truth of the entire village. Even when Yao Yuan wanted to record these memories to make it easier for him to recall in the future, it had already become something that was far away from his reach.

Just as he was feeling puzzled, Yao Yuan suddenly saw a passerby at the entrance of the village.

Seeing that it was a villager from nearby, Yao Yuan was overjoyed. Just as he was about to ask what was going on in this area, a strange scene occurred.

The instant one of the passersby stepped into the village, their entire bodies froze in an instant, unable to move at all, looking the same as Liu Neng at home.

Yao Yuan was very surprised. Needless to say, this was definitely the result of time stopping.

Seeing this scene, Yao Yuan suddenly had some lingering fear.

After entering for such a long time, there was not the slightest movement. This passerby only entered for an instant, Yao Yuan's eyelids did not even tremble, yet such a thing had already happened. It was simply unimaginable.

With this situation, Yao Yuan began to suspect that there was something wrong with him.

Every time he thought about how time had stopped, Yao Yuan would always remember the topic of the movies from the Island Country that he saw with a few beggars and old geezers on the streets. At that time, Yao Yuan was still envious of the male owners in the movies.

However, when this matter truly happened to Yao Yuan, Yao Yuan didn't have any ulterior motives, and there was not a single sound from the surroundings. The only sound that he could hear was the sound of Yao Yuan's feet rubbing against the ground as he walked, and nothing else.

Is this even a place where people live?

Yao Yuan had to find the answer.

Thinking back to the process just now, before Yao Yuan entered Wang Jing Village, everything was unknown. He did not know what had happened in the village.

However, there were no changes to the entire village after they entered, and only the innocent bystanders were caught up in this trap.

Before Yao Yuan returned to Qingjiang, the screen of light had caught his attention. It had to be said that there had to be a relationship between the two, and no matter what level of causal link it was, the screen of light and Wang Jing Village's change were inextricably linked.

Since he could no longer see anything in this place, Yao Yuan decided to go somewhere else to take a look. He wanted to look for the real reason behind all of this.

After leaving the village, the first place Yao Yuan went to was the Zhang Family Village that Liu Neng had clashed with before.

But before he even reached the village and felt the loneliness of the village, Yao Yuan had already understood something.
