Chapter 326: Time Regression Mirror Device

Hearing the news brought suddenly by his son, Wu Kuang’s expression froze. “What? The corpse of the Gu worm is missing? With so many of you here, how could you lose it?”
Wu Tian then explained the whole situation in detail. After listening, Wu Kuang frowned deeply. “So, no one was present when it was stolen, and no one saw how it disappeared?”
“Yes!” The third elder nodded.
“Anyway, let’s send the eldest elder back to his room first. If we really can’t find it, we’ll have to see if we can find another corpse of a Gu king to replace it,” Ye Feng said, breaking the tense silence.
“To obtain a corpse of a Gu king, the clan leader must be present, and approval from most of the elders is required. We’re not allowed to take one without the clan leader’s return. Besides, digging in the ancestors’ graves is only permissible in extreme cases; doing it a second time would be disrespectful. Personally, I’m unwilling to dig up our ancestors’ graves again.” Wu Kuang also understood that Ye Feng was an outsider and couldn’t comprehend the Black Witch Clan’s rules. In fact, some rules weren’t unchangeable—they were simply emotionally unacceptable.
“Alright, then let’s wait for your clan leader to return,” Ye Feng said, giving up since Wu Kuang had spoken that way. He knew it was unlikely to get the Black Witch Clan to dig up another Gu king’s corpse. The only solution now was to find the stolen one as soon as possible. Although he said he would wait for Wu Ze to return, it was just a way to ease everyone’s vigilance. He planned to investigate the matter before Wu Ze returned.
After sending the eldest elder back to his room, only Wu Kuang remained to guard it, while the others dispersed back to their own rooms.
“How can I find out the truth?” Back in his room, Ye Feng frowned deeply. He had no clue at all, even though he knew the thief was among the people he knew.
After pondering for a while, Ye Feng sent his mental energy into the Void Realm. “Is there any tool that can allow me to see past events—something for time regression?”
“The Time Regression Mirror Device, the ultimate creation of the planet Taikrolegi. Its price is 100 billion first-tier domain points.”

“One hundred billion…” Ye Feng was speechless at this price. It was the first time he had seen something with such an exorbitant cost. Although it was only a first-tier domain value, even if exchanged using a third-tier domain value, it would still cost one hundred thousand points. Yet, this technological product was truly terrifying.
“The Time Regression Mirror can trace back to all events that have occurred at any time and place, with no restrictions on time or location. The maximum tracking range is one light year, and the maximum tracking time is unlimited.”
“Amazing. This thing should be able to fully reconstruct the entire process of the emergence and development of an asteroid system…” Ye Feng couldn’t help but exclaim. “If we ever seek to uncover some ancient mysteries in the future, this device will surely be useful. We definitely can’t afford to miss it.”
“Confirm purchase!”
“Insufficient first-tier domain value. Would you like to convert from third-tier domain value?”
“Yes!” Ye Feng didn’t hesitate.
“Converting one hundred thousand third-tier domain values to one hundred billion first-tier domain values.”
“Purchase successful. One hundred billion first-tier domain values consumed!”
When Ye Feng held the palm-sized transparent metal ball in his hand, he couldn’t help but marvel at the terror of technology.
“Let’s try it out first. I want to see what’s happened in my room over the past ten days.” Ye Feng gave an instruction to the metal ball.
The moment the instruction was given, the transparent metal ball began to spin on its own, and a reduced 3D image of the room appeared above it.
In that 3D image, Ye Feng saw that few people had entered or left his room over those ten days. Aside from him entering and leaving a few times, no one else had visited. He clearly remembered everything that had happened, which matched exactly what was shown in the image.
“It seems this thing is real!” Ye Feng felt confident after seeing it.
Holding the Time Regression Mirror in his hand, Ye Feng knocked on the door of the Grand Elder. It was Wu Tian who opened the door, looking somewhat helpless.
“Wu Tian, you’re here too!” Ye Feng thought only Wu Kuang was staying with the Grand Elder.
“I just went back to prepare some late-night snacks for my father. Brother Dao Feng, come and eat too!” Wu Tian forced a smile.
“Was your father scolding you?” Ye Feng shook his head with a smile. That kid, Wu Tian, always showed his feelings on his face. His expression clearly showed he was upset.
“Your father is really strict. If I have children in the future, I’ll be satisfied if they’re half as sensible as you.” Ye Feng joked.

“The body of the Gu King is missing, and I am responsible. Father was right about everything…” Wu Tian shook his head with a smile.
“Enough. I already have a way to find the killer,” Ye Feng said, pointing at the door. “Can I go in now?”
“Oh…” Wu Tian realized he had blocked the entrance, keeping the blade outside the Great Elder’s room. He immediately stepped aside, his face turning red.
After Ye Feng entered, Wu Kuang stood up from beside the Great Elder’s bed, nodding slightly and smiling at him. He was strict with his own son but polite to outsiders.
“Father, Mr. Dao Feng says he has a way to find the killer,” Wu Tian said timidly, looking at his father.
“Oh…” Wu Kuang glanced at his son then focused his attention on Ye Feng, waiting for a clear answer.
“Mm,” Ye Feng nodded. “I indeed have a way to identify the killer.”
“How confident are you?” Wu Kuang still seemed worried.
“Over 90%!” Ye Feng smiled.
“Tian, go call the Second Elder and the Third Elder right away!” Wu Kuang immediately turned to shout at Wu Tian.
“Okay!” Wu Tian rushed out at once.
“Brother Dao Feng, what exactly is your method?” Wu Kuang couldn’t help asking.
“It’s simple. I just remembered that I once visited a technological planet in the mortal world. I bought quite a few interesting things there. After returning to my room and organizing the items in my storage ring, I accidentally discovered this…” Ye Feng held up the transparent sphere in his palm. “This thing is called a Time Regression Mirroring Device. It can restore the images of events that occurred within a certain range. With this, we can figure out what happened while we were away from the Great Elder’s room, and the killer won’t be able to hide.”
