After hearing Xiao Yan's question, Time and Space paused slightly before continuing to answer Xiao Yan's question.
"Master, as I told you before, the Time-Space City was created by an elder of the previous owner of the Time-Space City and given to the previous owner. Its main purpose is to assist the previous owner in cultivation."
"Currently, according to the Time-Space City's perception, the supreme expert who created the Time-Space City has sensed its whereabouts and is on his way to reclaim it."
"Furthermore, I must remind you that the Dou Qi Continent is now deeply connected with the Time-Space City in many ways."
"Therefore, when that supreme expert comes to reclaim Time-Space City, there is a high probability that he will take the Dou Qi Continent with him. Please make the necessary preparations in advance to avoid any unexpected situations."
Upon hearing Shi Kong finally reveal this, Xiao Yan's brows furrowed. This news was far too shocking for him, like a bolt from the blue exploding in his mind.
Was everything he had fought for over the years really going to be taken away by others in such an inexplicable way? Xiao Yan was truly unwilling to accept it.
As if he had just thought of something, Xiao Yan suddenly looked delighted and spoke to Shi Kong with a slightly trembling voice.
"Time and space, now our Time and Space City and Dou Qi Continent have developed into a very prosperous and thriving place, and the power we possess now is far greater than it could have been before."
"If we unite with the powerful individuals who have entered the Time-Space City, and combine all the forces of the Time-Space City and the Dou Qi Continent, we can take advantage of the moment when that supreme expert is caught off guard."
"Could we directly suppress that powerful figure, preventing him from reclaiming Time City, and even use him to make the Dou Qi Continent and Time City stronger?"
After saying these words, a ruthlessness that had never appeared in Xiao Yan's eyes before appeared.
He would absolutely not allow anyone to take away everything he had now. All of this was earned through his hard work, and no one had the right to deprive him of it! Xiao Yan shouted in his heart.
Xiao Yan was already prepared. Once the Time and Space gave him a positive answer, he would immediately gather the strongest people in Time and Space City, set up a trap in advance, and wait for that mysterious supreme expert.
Looking at Xiao Yan in front of her, Shi Kong felt very unfamiliar. After spending so many years together, she believed that she knew Xiao Yan very well.
But she never imagined that after learning that the creator of Time City was about to arrive, she would be afraid of losing Time City and everything she had now.
In Xiao Yan's mind, such a vicious thought, almost bordering on repaying kindness with enmity, actually occurred to him.
Although she felt some sadness, and even though it was her duty, she should not stop Xiao Yan from doing so.
But thinking of all the days and nights he had spent with Xiao Yan over the years, Shi Kong couldn't just stand by and watch Xiao Yan go to his death. He decided to help Xiao Yan this last time.

Chapter 173 Merging the Dou Qi Continent
After gathering his thoughts, Shi Kong spoke to Xiao Yan.
“Master, I do not recommend that you do this. The powerful figure who created the Time-Space City has strength that exceeds the limits of your previous imagination.”
“Even the strongest person in Time-Space City right now, that peerless Heavenly Emperor whose strength has reached the eighth level of the extraordinary realm, the supreme powerhouse who created Time-Space City, could be completely destroyed with just a thought.”
Upon hearing Shi Kong's words, Xiao Yan was filled with despair. He knew that under such an absolute difference in strength, everything he did was in vain.
"Time and space, is there really no other way but to obediently hand over Time and Space City and everything I've fought so hard for all these years?"
"I'm sorry, Master, I really can't think of any way to work against that supreme expert right now."
With a hint of regret in his voice, Shi Kong shattered the last glimmer of hope in Xiao Yan's heart, leaving him utterly dejected.
"By the way, Time and Space, you said you had two pieces of news to tell me, one good and one bad. Now that you've told me the bad news, what's the good news?"
Suddenly remembering what Shi Kong had just said, a glimmer of hope rekindled in Xiao Yan's heart. He was truly unwilling to simply hand over Shi Kong City and everything he now possessed for nothing.
"Master, the good news I'm sharing is based on an analysis of that powerful figure's past character. After that powerful figure reclaimed the Time-Space City, or perhaps even took the Dou Qi Continent with him,..."
"They shouldn't do anything to harm you. Although you will lose Time City, or even this Dou Qi Continent, your own safety should be guaranteed."
The words about time and space shattered Xiao Yan's last shred of illusion, plunging him into utter despair.
At that moment, all the powerful figures on the Dou Qi Continent gazed solemnly at the sky. In their perception, a supreme will filled with unparalleled majesty had enveloped the entire Dou Qi Continent.
Looking at the tense powerhouses on the Dou Qi Continent, Yuan Hao had no intention of showing himself on the Dou Qi Continent.
As Yuan Hao urged it on, the Dou Qi Continent slowly departed from the void where it was currently located and began to head towards the Tianyuan Sacred Realm not far away.
After the Dou Qi Continent and the Tianyuan Sacred Realm met, they merged together without any obstacles, and the Dou Qi Continent and the Tianyuan Sacred Realm have become a whole.
From then on, the Tianyuan Sacred Realm possessed a second subordinate world at the level of a Great Thousand World, namely the Dou Qi Continent.
After seeing that the Dou Qi Continent had perfectly merged with the Tianyuan Sacred Realm, Yuan Hao sent a message to the Heavenly Court and the Pantheon respectively, and then returned to the Heavenly Dao Space of the Tianyuan Sacred Realm.
On the Dou Qi Continent, Xiao Yan, who had been heartbroken and quietly waiting for the arrival of that supreme expert, suddenly found that the petite figure of Shi Kong appeared before him, with a look of joy on her face.
“Master, I have received a message from the supreme being who created spacetime, and it is good news for you.”
Looking at Shi Kong, who was speaking to him with a joyful expression, Xiao Yan was filled with surprise, wondering what good news he could possibly have at this moment.
"Time and Space, what good news is it? You seem so happy. Could it be that some supreme expert has taken pity on me and given me Time and Space City, never to be taken back?"
Xiao Yan asked the question to the universe in a slightly joking tone. At the same time, after thinking of a certain possibility, a sense of anticipation arose in his heart.
"Master, that's not it. That powerful figure will still take back Time City. Not only that, but he will also take away this entire Dou Qi Continent."
"If that's the case, what good news could there be for me now?" The glimmer of hope that had just emerged in Xiao Yan's heart was completely extinguished by the words of time and space.
"Although the powerful master will reclaim ownership of Time-Space City, it does not mean that you will no longer be able to govern Time-Space City."
"What does that mean? If that powerful figure will take back Time City, how can I continue to be the city lord of Time City?"
Xiao Yan was greatly puzzled by the concept of time and space.
