Chapter 718: 424, Grand Event_2
Qing Shuli was stunned for a moment. Was there really such a formidable Time Traveler Organization in Los Angeles City?
Kyushu and Kunlun being formidable was understandable after all, since there were special reasons.
But why could a civilian Time Traveler Organization be so formidable?
He felt a bitter taste in his heart. If he were as wealthy as Zhang Chengze, he would definitely have sought out these people too, but he couldnât come up with the five million, could he? He couldnât possibly mortgage his house, right?
His mentality now was like that of a cancer patient who knew his days might be numbered, and so he did not want to waste money. That way, even if he died in the Inner World, his wife and children could still have savings to continue living.
In this respect, Qing Shuli did indeed have a strong sense of family responsibility, unlike the irresponsible gambler Qing Guozhong.
Qing Shuli held the phone and hesitated before asking, âMr. Zhang, can they negotiate on the price?â
Zhang Chengze replied, âThatâs not possible. They said their boss doesnât care about money. Sheltering too many Time Travelers can lead to problems, so they donât intend to take that risk. How about this? Iâll give you their number, and you can talk to them yourself.â
âRight, right, thank you!â Qing Shuli said.
Zhang Chengze sent him a text message. Qing Shuli hadnât decided whether to call or not, but there was no harm in saving the number.
However, when he was saving the contact, his phone unexpectedly prompted him that the number already existed!
Qing Shuli was stunned. He actually had the other partyâs phone number? Who was this?
He searchedâŠ
This was Luo Wanyaâs phone number?!
So it turned out to be Luo Wanyaâs business. No wonder they were so indifferent when they saw him. It seems they charged five million for sheltering someone for a week.
Just giving some cigarettes, liquor, and fruit as gifts, it was quite normal for them to ignore him.
However, for Qing Shuli, finding out that the most formidable Time Traveler Organization in Los Angeles City was the one Luo Wanya belonged to wasnât good news.
He didnât know what Qing Chen had told Luo Wanya, nor did he know that Qing Chen was the boss of this organization. So from his point of view, Luo Wanya certainly wouldnât help him for no reason, especially since they were not well-acquainted.
Therefore, Qing Shuli thought, Luo Wanya must have just said a few perfunctory words to him previously because they lived in the same neighborhood.
Itâs not Qing Shuliâs fault. Normal people, when lacking certain information, would think in this way.
âItâs over,â Qing Shuli said to Zhang Wanfang with emotion, âNow we finally understand why Luo Wanya was so indifferent to me. It turns out their fees are so expensive. It seems we need to think of other methods; we canât afford the best Time Traveler Organization in Los Angeles City. Letâs see if we can find a slightly less capable one.â
âI just remembered something,â Zhang Wanfang suddenly said, âMy sisterâs child is in Luo Yi High School, and she seems to have mentioned that thereâs a Time Traveler Organization there called Freemasonry⊠Should we try contacting them?â
Qing Shuli hesitated, âA group of high school students? I donât mean to look down on high school students, but Iâm concerned that they havenât faced the evils of society and might not be managing very well themselves.â
âAt least itâs a lead, and students are usually eager to help others. Even if they name a price, it shouldnât be too high,â Zhang Wanfang got the phone number for Freemasonryâs Zhang Lanjin from her niece and called it.
What Zhang Wanfang didnât know was that currently, in the Outer World, the Time Traveler who charged the highest fees was Qing Chen, who was also a studentâŠ
The call connected, and Qing Shuli took the phone, saying, âHello, is this Lei Leiâs classmate Zhang Lanjin? I am her uncle.â
Zhang Lanjin laughed on the phone, âHello, Lei Lei just told me about you. Are you a recently initiated Time Traveler?â
âYes, thatâs right,â Qing Shuli said, âIâm still not sure of my identity after the time travel. Iâve heard your Freemasonry is quite impressive, so I wanted to ask if I could get some help⊠Of course, I can offer some compensation.â
Zhang Lanjin laughed, âUncle Qing, our Freemasonry is no longer in City 18, so we canât help you. We are out in the wilderness right now.â
Qing Shuli was taken aback for a moment. This was troublesome.
Then, Zhang Lanjin said, âUncle Qing, let me give you another number to try. They are called Daytime, one of the most formidable Time Travelers domestically, and their headquarters are right in City 18⊠They are really nice people!â
A sense of foreboding rose in Qing Shuliâs heart upon hearing this.
Zhang Lanjin sent over the number, and he saw it was still Luo Wanyaâs phone numberâŠ
Zhang Wanfang was stunned for a long while, âWhy does it seem like in this Los Angeles City, any matter related to the Inner World canât circumvent this organization called Daytime? Are they really that formidable?â
âIt seems so,â Qing Shuli thought for a moment and said, âNow all we can do is play it by ear. What if Luo Wanya really does help me?â

Inside the Daytime villa.
The Daytime members all sat at the dining table, while Xiao Tongyun claimed she was going to sleep and hid in her room.
They were going to have a brief meeting.
Boss, âWho has received an invitation from Kunlun?â
Ice Eyes, âMe.â
Luo Wanya, âMe.â
Liu Dezhu, âMe.â
Yanyan replied with Little Geniusâs ID, âMe.â
Tycoon, âI havenât.â
Little Tyrant, âNeither have I.â
Qiu Xue, âI havenât either.â
Among the Daytime Members, Nan Gengchen, Liu Dezhu, Zhang Tianzhen, Hu Xiaoniu, Qing Chen, and Luo Wanya had all received an invitation, whereas Jiang Xue and Li Tongyun did not.
It was quite normal for these two not to receive one.
It wasnât strange for those from the Outer World Division One not to receive invitations either.
However, this time, all attendees had to send back an RSVP to receive a special QR code. It was said that the security at the Zheng City International Convention Center would be exceptionally tight, requiring each personâs special QR code to enter the venue.
Recently, this topic had been hot on the internet. Several social media celebrities from the Time Traveler community announced they would attend, and if they had the chance, they would invite some formidable Time Travelers to their live broadcastsâŠ
The Matrix Organization confirmed their attendance.
The Red Leaves Organization also indicated they would attend.
Overall, many intended to attend the meeting. On one hand, everyone was eager to see the current state of other Time Travelers, to see how well they were doing; on the other hand, there was a mysterious trust towards Kunlun, knowing that Kunlun wouldnât set them up.
This was the reputation Kunlun had meticulously cultivated at home.
Kyushu relied on psychology, drawing everyone into their group step by step through He Xiaoxiao.
Meanwhile, Kunlun merely had to call to action, and ninety percent of the invitees willingly attended the Time Traveler Federation meeting.
Although nobody knew what the Federation meeting was preparing to do.
Everyone could imagine that it would be the first grand gathering of domestic Time Travelers, and whether it would be the last, no one knew.
Kunlunâs official account pledged that first, they wouldnât deliberately probe into each Time Travelerâs privacy, and second, the meeting would maintain confidentiality, preventing media journalists from reporting on the Federationâs affairs.
Here, Kunlun also reminded everyone to conceal their identities well and that they could attend dressed in costumes.
Qing Chen knew this was to prevent the Time Travelers from the Inner World conglomerates from using this opportunity to gather too much information related to Time Travelers.
It was said that for this meeting, parts of Kyushu had returned, and Kunlun had also locked down the venue in advance to prevent eavesdropping and surveillance devices.
Yet Xiao Niu still felt a bit angry, feeling as if he was being treated differently, somewhat indignant.
Tycoon, âIâve done so much for Daytime, been involved in many major events; why wouldnât Kunlun send me an invitation?â
Little Tyrant also felt indignant, âLooking down on us!â
Little Genius, âExactly! Why wouldnât they send an invitation to Little Tyrant?â
Little Tyrant, âRight, Little Genius brother, are you still in Haicheng? Why donât you come visit Los Angeles City?â
Up until this moment, XiaoTongyun still thought Yanyan was a boy, and had even privately messaged Yanyan asking for a photoâŠ
At some point, Qing Chen felt that both Yanyan and Xiao Niu were of the same playful nature.
Liu Dezhu asked in the group, âBoss, are we going?â
Boss, âYes, but weâre not going together.â
Liu Dezhu inquired curiously, âWhat are we going to do there?â
âFirst, spread out and gather information about Qing Yuan for me. In addition, find out who might have Taboo.â
