### Chapter 1601 — A Medium-Sized Universe
The cultivation chamber remained quiet.
Everyone was still digesting everything Yang Lin had revealed.
Then Yang Lin suddenly spoke.
"By the way."
"The Universe we're currently in is only medium-sized."
Everyone immediately looked toward him.
Yang Lin continued calmly.
"As you already know."
"It is approximately one hundred billion light years in diameter."
Then he pointed toward the projection.
"The universe-sized structures I mentioned earlier."
"The ones with Universe Wills."
"The ones that exist within the Universe Space."
"They are approximately two hundred trillion light years in diameter."
The room became silent.
Even after hearing it before—
The number still felt ridiculous.
---
### Chapter 1602 — The Way Things Are
Xue Yao wasn't shocked.
Not anymore.
Instead she asked calmly—
"If our Universe is one hundred billion light years in diameter."
"Why is it considered small from the outside?"
Everyone immediately looked toward Yang Lin.
Yang Lin simply shrugged.
"The way things are."
"Are the way things are."
Silence.
FeiFei blinked repeatedly.
Su Qinglan looked completely speechless.
Han Qing rubbed her forehead.
Ning Mei almost laughed.
Yue Bingxin didn't know whether to laugh or sigh.
Even Daji couldn't help smiling slightly.
Meanwhile—
Xue Yao simply stared at Yang Lin.
That answer somehow sounded perfectly normal coming from him.
---
### Chapter 1603 — Ten Years Old
Then Daji suddenly asked—
"When did you arrive in the Inner World?"
Yang Lin answered immediately.
"When I was ten."
Silence.
Absolute silence.
FeiFei's eyes widened.
"You were ten?!"
Han Qing looked stunned.
Su Qinglan froze.
Han Chen's beautiful eyes widened slightly.
Ning Mei blinked repeatedly.
Even Yue Bingxin looked visibly surprised.
Xue Yao's expression finally changed.
Ten years old.
Most children at that age could barely survive alone.
Yet Yang Lin had somehow entered the Inner World.
---
### Chapter 1604 — Huxia
Daji suddenly smiled.
"Then tell us."
"Do you have a childhood sweetheart back in Huxia?"
"Or China?"
The room instantly became quiet.
Everyone looked toward Yang Lin.
Even Xue Yao seemed slightly interested.
Yang Lin nodded.
"I do."
Boom.
The room froze.
FeiFei immediately sat upright.
Su Qinglan looked surprised.
Han Qing's eyes widened.
Han Chen blinked.
Yue Bingxin looked stunned.
Even Daji looked pleased.
Because Yang Lin had actually answered.
---
### Chapter 1605 — Decades Apart
Yang Lin looked toward the distant sky.
"It's been decades since I came here."
The room became quiet.
Then he continued.
"Huxia remains the strongest nation on Earth."
"And she's still there."
Everyone listened carefully.
Then Yang Lin explained.
"In Huxia."
"There exists a hidden martial civilization."
"Ancient martial paths."
"Powerful warriors."
"Special energy cultivation."
"Humanity has fought dangerous creatures and disasters for over a century."
"A separate world hidden from ordinary society."
Everyone became interested.
Even Xue Yao listened carefully.
---
### Chapter 1606 — Senior Martial Realm
Yang Lin continued.
"My childhood sweetheart reached Senior Martial Realm years ago."
Everyone remained silent.
Then Yang Lin calmly added—
"In cultivation terms."
"Comparable to Lord Realm First Stage."
The room instantly froze.
"What?!"
FeiFei nearly jumped.
Su Qinglan looked stunned.
Han Qing froze.
Han Chen's expression stiffened.
Ning Mei stared blankly.
Even Xue Yao's eyes widened slightly.
A Lord Realm expert.
On Earth.
Nobody had expected that.
Then Xue Yao asked quietly—
"How do you know what's happening in Huxia from here?"
Yang Lin looked toward her.
"That doesn't matter."
The answer immediately ended the discussion.
---
### Chapter 1607 — Another Sister
The room became quiet.
Then Xue Yao suddenly spoke.
Her voice sounded calm.
Yet everyone sensed something unusual.
"If she wishes..."
"Would you add another sister to our journey toward the World of Cultivation?"
Silence.
Everyone immediately looked toward Yang Lin.
Yang Lin's expression didn't change.
"Whatever she wants."
The answer came naturally.
Without hesitation.
FeiFei blinked.
Su Qinglan looked away.
Han Qing exchanged glances with Han Chen.
Ning Mei smiled faintly.
Even Daji looked amused.
Meanwhile—
Xue Yao simply nodded.
As though she had expected exactly that answer.
---
### Chapter 1608 — The Forgotten Woman
Then FeiFei suddenly remembered something.
"Wait."
"What about the green-robed woman?"
"The one still lying a million li away?"
Everyone froze.
They had completely forgotten about her.
Yang Lin nodded.
"Oh."
"Her."
Then he casually raised three fingers.
"One."
"Two."
"Three."
Far away—
The Heavenly Dao suppression vanished instantly.
Yang Lin calmly spoke.
"Xue Yao."
"Bring her here."
Xue Yao immediately disappeared.
Moments later—
She returned.
Standing beside her was the green-robed woman.
---
### Chapter 1609 — I Asked For Your Name
The green-robed woman's previous arrogance had completely vanished.
Being suppressed by Heavenly Dao for days—
Combined with personally seeing Immortal Venerable Xue Yao—
Had shattered her confidence.
Han Qing looked toward Yang Lin.
"What should we do with her?"
Yang Lin calmly looked at the woman.
Then asked—
"What's your name?"
The woman immediately bowed.
"I am the Northern Domain Lord of the Lower Realm of Rui Star."
"A descendant of a great figure from the Immortal Realm."
"My ancestor stands ten major realms above the Immortal Venerable Realm."
"A supreme existence in the Immortal Realm of Rui Star—"
Yang Lin interrupted.
"I asked for your name."
Silence.
The room instantly froze.
The green-robed woman froze.
Xue Yao froze.
Han Chen froze.
Ning Mei froze.
Su Qinglan froze.
Even Daji blinked.
Nobody expected Yang Lin to completely ignore everything she had just said.
The woman hurriedly lowered her head.
"My name is Bai Yao."
---
### Chapter 1610 — A Memory From The Future
The moment Yang Lin heard that name—
His expression changed.
Only slightly.
A tiny fluctuation.
A movement so small that ordinary people would never notice.
Yet everyone present noticed immediately.
Because Yang Lin almost never reacted to anything.
FeiFei froze.
Su Qinglan looked surprised.
Han Qing's eyes narrowed.
Han Chen became serious.
Yue Bingxin's expression stiffened.
Ning Mei looked confused.
Even Daji looked stunned.
Meanwhile—
Bai Yao herself became nervous.
Because she had no idea what had happened.
Then FeiFei immediately asked—
"Yang Lin?"
"Are you okay?"
Everyone looked toward him.
Yang Lin remained silent briefly.
Then his usual calm returned.
"I'm fine."
Han Chen frowned slightly.
"What happened?"
Yang Lin looked toward Bai Yao.
Then toward the distant sky.
"A memory."
Everyone looked confused.
"A memory?"
Yang Lin nodded.
"A memory from the future."
"Nothing interesting."
The room instantly became silent.
Xue Yao's beautiful eyes widened.
Han Qing froze.
Han Chen became speechless.
Ning Mei stared blankly.
Su Qinglan's expression changed.
Yue Bingxin looked shocked.
Even Daji couldn't immediately respond.
A memory.
From the future?
Nobody knew how such a thing was possible.
Meanwhile—
Yang Lin remained completely calm.
As though remembering the future was no more unusual than remembering yesterday.
Yet his words only made everyone more shocked.
Because if Yang Lin could remember the future—
Then what exactly had he seen?
And why had the name Bai Yao caused even the slightest fluctuation in his normally unshakable expression?
