Half a day passed.
Long Chen had grown a lot again. The past nine years had been a path of growth for him.
Lingxi's delicate body leaned against Long Chen's chest. Sitting in front of the surging river, the two of them enjoyed this moment of silence. After a while, Lingxi couldn't help but say softly, "Chen, it's time for today. I have a lot of doubts and apprehensions in my heart that I want to tell you."
Long Chen used his slender fingers to gently caress her flawless face. It was soft and cold to the touch. He attentively looked into the eyes of the beauty in his embrace and softly said, "Last time, you didn't even tell me what you did. Today, that impostor really made me sad."
At that moment, Lingxi was so cold. To be honest, Long Chen's heart really collapsed. Fortunately, it was all fake. When he was stabbed by that fake Lingxi, his God Martial Spirit was injured, but his heart was healed.
Lingxi said guiltily, "I'm really sorry. I didn't do it on purpose. So when you saw Grandma Yan, I decided to come out, but it was too late."
"Why are you apologizing? It's all in the past. There's no such thing between us."
Long Chen wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes. In fact, the happiest time they were together was in the Myriad Kingdoms Domain. At that time, they didn't have as many worries as they did now. But now, in order to stay together for a long time, it seemed like the whole world was against them.
"Back then, I obtained the Soul Splitting Art in the Myriad Kingdoms Domain. After I came back, I consulted many similar ancient books and finally completed the Soul Splitting Art. I couldn't stay in the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace forever. I wanted to find you. I couldn't bear to see you suffer, so I used the Soul Splitting Art to create a substitute in the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace. Then, I escaped to the Myriad Kingdoms Domain to find you. But I didn't expect that you would meet her here …"
Long Chen had already expected it. He really wanted it to be like this.
"Then tell me, why did you hide in my body? How could you have such a miraculous method?"
It would certainly be a long story, but they had plenty of time now, so it was not a big deal. In this quiet forest, where no one would disturb them, Lingxi gradually revealed a shocking secret to Long Chen.
Lingxi revealed a nervous expression as she said, "I … actually, there are some things that I can't believe even after I found out about it. You know my father, the other three Sword Masters, and all the true higher-ups of the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace, they all take care of me, or should I say, they're constantly monitoring me, not allowing anything to happen to me. I even feel that with my father's ability, he should have known that the substitute was fake long ago. He must be searching for me everywhere …"
There must be something big going on. Long Chen comforted her and asked, "What's the reason? Your identity is very special."
Lingxi nodded, her eyes were a little dazed as she said, "I also can't believe it. One day, my father actually told me that I'm not his daughter. He said that I'm … the reincarnation of the Sword Spirit Emperor …"
Long Chen almost fell from the rock he was sitting on.
"Holy shit, the reincarnation of the Sword Spirit Emperor."
He was truly stunned. He stared at the delicate and somewhat mischievous girl in his arms in disbelief. He couldn't associate her with the white-haired old man at all. The gap between the two was too big.
"The Sword Spirit Emperor has always been a woman."
Seeing Long Chen's dazed expression, Lingxi immediately knew what he was thinking. She quickly pinched his thigh and said angrily. Her gender was actually being doubted by the man she had been intimate with, this feeling …
Long Chen came to his senses. Since Lingxi had said so, there shouldn't be any mistake. Didn't the rumors say that the Sword Spirit Emperor had disappeared? Reincarnation was something that only existed in myths and legends. Long Chen didn't expect it to actually happen in front of him.
The Sword Spirit Emperor was the most accomplished cultivator in the entire Three Realms and Nine Worlds. It was reasonable that he had such a method. However, the current Lingxi didn't have any memories of her previous life. Otherwise, she would be dead.
"Chen, do you believe that I'm the reincarnation of the Sword Spirit Emperor?" Lingxi asked anxiously.
Long Chen naturally believed it. He said, "There's no doubt about this. Fortunately, you're a new life and don't have any memories of your previous life. Otherwise, you wouldn't be yourself. If this identity is true, it's certain that they're nurturing you as the new Sword Spirit Emperor. Wang Chen isn't good with the sword, so he can't lead the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace. Because of your special identity, they won't let you marry an outsider, nor will they let you leave the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace. If we want to be together, I'm afraid that we'll encounter more resistance than we can imagine."
Long Chen's heart was still in shock.
He was a relatively open-minded person. If it was someone else who found out that his beloved woman was the reincarnation of the Sword Spirit Emperor, he would probably have a knot in his heart. However, Long Chen didn't care about it. So what if the Sword Spirit Emperor was the Sword Spirit Emperor? She was his woman anyway. The only problem was that because of Lingxi's identity, Long Chen was afraid that one year later, when he wanted to rush to the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace to marry her, the resistance would be even more terrifying.
It might even exceed his imagination.
Wang Chen alone was already very difficult to deal with, let alone the entire Sword Spirit Emperor Palace. The Sword Spirit Emperor of the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace had been missing for so long. Everyone was looking forward to the birth of a new Great Emperor. If they knew that Long Chen and their Sword Spirit Emperor had been together day and night, and they had been passionately entangled …
"As for the reason why I hid in your body, it was because I had nowhere else to hide. I knew that my father and the others would soon find out that the substitute was fake, and they would capture me back so that I would never be able to see you again. Coincidentally, although I don't have any memories of my previous life, my mind would occasionally think of all sorts of strange methods and information. The method of merging my bloodline into your body also came from my previous life. This kind of secret method can only be used by two people who truly love each other and have skin contact. Two years ago, I was separated from you, but I had nowhere to go. I didn't want to leave you, so I thought of hiding in your body and accompanying you at all times so that my father and the others wouldn't find me. I wanted to continue like this until you were very, very powerful enough to stop everything. However, today's accident forced me to come out …"
"I see."
Long Chen sighed in his heart, but he didn't regret it. It wasn't his style to let Lingxi hide. Since he had already come out, he would face it bravely.
The doubts in his heart were almost gone.
The biggest surprise was the fact that Lingxi was actually the reincarnation of the Sword Soul Sovereign. This matter was actually very important to Long Chen, and the pressure on him was even greater. However, he had never cared about worldly matters. Why couldn't a man wield his sword for a woman?
However, his father would eventually find out about Lingxi's appearance and he would eventually bring her back. Even if Long Chen escaped to the ends of the earth, he wouldn't be able to escape the pursuit of the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace. If he hid in the True Martial Emperor Palace, the appearance of the four great sword masters would be related to the Sword Spirit Emperor. Even the True Martial Emperor wouldn't be able to make a move.
Therefore, within a month, Lingxi would definitely be taken away by the people from the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace. This was the price Lingxi had to pay for coming out today.
They only had a few days to spend together until Long Chen became an expert who could summon the wind and rain and arrived at the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace in a domineering manner.
That day might be near, or it might be far away.
However, the two of them tacitly didn't mention this matter. Instead, they quietly leaned against each other and softly talked about how they missed each other all these years. Lingxi knew everything about Long Chen. Therefore, as they chatted, they talked about Li Xuanji.
Lingxi was a little disappointed and said, "Sometimes, I really feel guilty. Sister Xuanji is better than me in everything and is more suitable for you than me. She treats you very well. Sometimes, I'm worried for you. Why didn't you accept her boldly? Now that she's gone, I don't know when we can meet again. I hope she won't hate me then."
"Mm."
Long Chen's eyes widened. He didn't expect this fellow to like Li Xuanji so much. Although this was a society where it was common for men to have multiple wives and concubines, Long Chen had always been single-minded.
"Actually, I think it's good for the three of us to be together. It's fine as long as we're happy. It doesn't matter if you love me less, I'm very easily satisfied. As long as I can stay by your side and be carefree, it's fine." Lingxi smiled mischievously and nestled in Long Chen's arms. Her face was full of satisfaction.
"Is that so?" Long Chen laughed awkwardly.
Li Xuanji was a very good woman. She was a woman worth protecting. But so what if she was gone now? Would there really be a chance for them to meet again? Long Chen could only hide his longing for her in his heart. But he swore that he would never let this woman down.
Night gradually fell and the moonlight shone down. Long Chen suddenly thought of something. He touched Lingxi's white belly and said, "That's strange. We've been working hard for half a year. Why haven't we had a child yet?"
Lingxi's body trembled and her face turned red. She looked at Long Chen and said, "Maybe it's because you're almost an infant of the Ancient Blood Spiritual Dragon now. Your offspring will definitely be born with the bloodline of the Ancestral Dragon. The rarer the bloodline, the harder it is to reproduce. That's why pigs and dogs will be everywhere. Heaven is fair, so it's more difficult to have a child. But in ten thousand years, there will definitely be a chance."
It was really difficult for a little woman like her to say this. After saying this, she hurriedly lowered her head. Even the roots of her ears were red.
"Moreover, I'm still young. I don't want a child …"
Longing broke out like a tide. After talking for half a day, it was time to get to the main topic. Long Chen held her face up and stared at her watery eyes. He smiled and said, "That's good. I can have no scruples then."
After saying this, he kissed her violently.
… …..
There was a barrier in front of them that they couldn't pass through. The Nine Hells Illusionary Butterfly was so anxious that it was circling in circles. Cat laughed loudly at the side and said, "These two grandsons are having sex again. They really don't care about the feelings of us two kids."
The little butterfly said in confusion, "What is making love?"
