The two women were noncommittal about Shen Fan's explanation, remaining silent for a few seconds before Xiao Bai was the first to speak.
"Since you brought us to this World, can you send us back to our original World?"
In fact, Xiao Bai and Jin Pinger had asked this question to some other people in the live stream. Without their World being activated, some told them they could go back, some said it was hard to say, and others told them they couldn't go back. In short, there was no definite answer, and now they could finally get the real answer from the main person. For a moment, their beautiful eyes simultaneously looked at Shen Fan, who was walking in the middle.
"It depends on luck."
"Anyway, don't even think about it in the short term."
Shen Fan didn't know if he would get the activation card for the World where Xiao Bai and Jin Pinger resided in the future, and even if he could, he didn't know when. As for exchanging points for that World's activation card, the cost-effectiveness of that World wasn't high, so he would only consider it if he had an endless supply of points one day.
"So you're saying..."
"We'll have to live in this World for at least a long time?"
Jin Pinger frowned.
"Yes, and no."
Shen Fan nodded, then shook his head.
"What do you mean?"
Jin Pinger was puzzled.
"My main base is not in this World."
"Or rather, it's not in the current timeline, but ten thousand years ago in this World."
Shen Fan still spoke truthfully. As he said before, the two women originally came from other Worlds and their situation was different from the local girls, so there was no need to hide anything from them.
"Huh?"
"You mean, you can also take people to different timelines?"
Jin Pinger's eyes widened, and Xiao Bai, who hadn't spoken, was also like that.
"That's what I mean."
Shen Fan looked at the two women, who were so shocked they were almost lost in thought after his confirmation. He found it natural but also a little confused, so he continued, "Are you two so easily convinced that this is another World? Aren't you afraid that all of this is just an illusion?"
Hearing this, the two women snapped back, although their faces still showed a dazed expression from being shocked by Shen Fan's ability, Xiao Bai still said confidently.
"Heh."
"I can't say for sure about other things."
"But when it comes to illusions and illusionary techniques..."
"Don't forget, I am a Nine-tailed Sky Fox. Illusionary techniques are my most proficient ability. It's impossible for someone to use illusionary techniques in front of me without me seeing through them completely."
As her words fell, Jin Pinger also followed up.
"My main cultivation is charm techniques, and truthfully, charm techniques are a type of illusionary technique, so I also have a very profound understanding of illusionary techniques."
Jin Pinger's implication was simple: it's not that easy to deceive me with illusionary techniques.
"You're right."
"When it comes to illusionary techniques, in your World, you two are definitely among the top five, especially Xiao Bai, who probably ranks first."
Shen Fan slapped his head.
"Wait."
"You just said you can take people to different timelines, so why did you say you can't send us back to our original World in the short term?"
"I think, compared to taking people to different timelines, sending people back to their original World seems simpler, right?"
At this moment, Jin Pinger seemed to have suddenly realized.
Facing the two women's beautiful eyes, which were once again looking at him in unison, Shen Fan didn't avoid their gaze and said, "I can only tell you that whether it's taking people to other Worlds or to other timelines, there are prerequisites. It's not like I can do whatever I want."
After explaining this, Shen Fan's eyes met the two women's directly.
After a long time, Xiao Bai smiled slightly and said.
"So that's how it is."
"That sounds much more reasonable."
"Otherwise, if you could go to any World or any timeline you wanted, your ability would be too heaven-defying."
"Speaking of which..."
"Since we can't return to our original World in the short term, it seems we must learn the language and writing of your main base's World."
"You brought us to this World, and we can only understand what you say."
"So, the task of teaching us to read and write is up to you."
"No problem, right?"
After Xiao Bai finished speaking, Shen Fan's face showed a mix of joy and bitterness. He then turned to look at Jin Pinger, and finding that she also had no objections, he immediately became happy and quickly said.
"What are you saying?"
"I think any man with a clear head or a normal heart wouldn't refuse such a good job, right?"
Originally, he had thought of directly buying two language packs for the two women in the diary store, but he was troubled by the inability to explain the magic and origin of the language packs, so he had never taken action.
Now it's good.
He didn't need to rack his brains for excuses, and he could openly cultivate feelings with them. It was simply killing two birds with one stone.
"Then it's settled."
Xiao Bai said.
"Mm."
"It's settled."
Shen Fan nodded.
In the following time, Shen Fan took the two women on a big tour of Shrek City in a Soul-Guided carriage, and then took them to the forest outside Shrek City to see various Spirit Beasts. During this time, he naturally had to explain many things they wanted to know or were interested in. By the time Shen Fan brought the two women back to Shrek City and parked the carriage at the entrance of Shrek Academy, it was already close to four in the afternoon.
"Shen Fan..."
"Are you sure you want to take me and Jin Pinger to Jiang Nannan's birthday party?"
"Do you think this is appropriate?"
Inside the carriage, Xiao Bai took a big gulp of wine, slightly tipsy.
"What's inappropriate about it?"
Shen Fan didn't understand what Xiao Bai meant.
"Don't you think we're a bit too beautiful?"
"Be careful, your Jiang Nannan might get jealous."
"Look at this fireworks display you prepared for her; it has completely adorned the entire Shrek City like a fairyland."
"Don't let all of this go to waste because of us."
As she finished speaking, Xiao Bai took another big gulp of wine.
"Nannan and I are only ordinary friends right now, what kind of jealousy would she have?"
"Besides, Nannan isn't that kind of person."
Shen Fan waved his hand, dismissively.
"Alright then."
"Anyway, as long as you know what you're doing."
Xiao Bai patted Shen Fan's shoulder, then swayed her jade feet, humming a little tune and drinking wine, while also admiring the fireworks filling the sky.
Seeing that the two women had finally quieted down, Shen Fan rested for a while, then pulled over the diary that he had casually thrown aside and had been floating nearby.
[Phew.]
[Finally managed to fool these two ladies.]
