From Yang Yuntian's eyes, Long Chen saw love.
"From this incident, I saw the fate of the weak. This time, if you and her hadn't appeared, Little Qing's life would have been ruined. Regardless of the outcome, I think my daughter should fight for it. Ling Qing, you are the greatest pride of your father's life."
As he said this, Yang Yuntian's eyes glistened with tears. Only then did Long Chen realize that this second uncle of his had aged so much.
The man who had attacked him and almost killed him had changed a long time ago.
"Don't worry. Although I, Li Xuanji, am ruthless, I have always been magnanimous. If I say that I will take good care of her, I will definitely take good care of her."
At this moment, Li Xuanji had successfully refined it. Long Chen could clearly see that she seemed to have recovered a lot.
From the time they had spent together, Long Chen had gained some understanding of her. He already had an idea.
"How should I find you in the future?"
Long Chen said this after a moment of silence. This meant that he had agreed to Yang Lingqing's decision.
"You."
Li Xuanji was stunned. According to common sense, in this life of Long Chen, only Yang Lingqing would come looking for him, and not Long Chen. However, in order not to hurt Long Chen's pride, she said, "If one day, you are able to go to a place called the Three Great Emperor Regions, you can just ask for the name of the Nine Yin Extinction Demon, Li Xuanji."
"Three Great Emperor Regions, Nine Yin Extinction Demon." Long Chen nodded. These two words were deeply engraved in his mind.
"When do you plan to leave?" Long Chen asked.
"Brother, I want to go back to Baiyang Town and make some preparations. After that, I will leave with Master." Yang Lingqing said.
"Alright."
After that, Long Chen didn't say anything else. Yang Lingqing still had to leave. Long Chen decided to send her on her last journey.
After returning to Baiyang Town, Long Chen followed her to many familiar places. There were many times when Yang Lingqing cried in Long Chen's arms when she thought about leaving the place where she was raised and going to a faraway place to pursue her dreams.
Sometimes, Long Chen felt very sad. However, he was sincerely happy for Yang Lingqing from the bottom of his heart. Three days later, at the entrance of Baiyang Town, it was finally time for them to part.
Previously, when Long Chen left for the Lingwu family, everyone was seeing him off. But this time, everyone was seeing Yang Lingqing off. This time, everyone was Lingqing's family.
"Brother, we were born on the same day of the same month. Do you still remember?" Yang Lingqing's eyes were a little red.
"Silly girl."
Long Chen looked at this stubborn girl and felt a little heartache. He held her in his arms and hugged her fiercely. Then, he separated and said with a clear smile, "Alright, don't cry. I want to give you a promise."
"What promise?" Yang Lingqing was stunned.
Long Chen smiled and patted her thin shoulder. He said, "I promise you that one day, I will appear in front of you. At that time, I will still be stronger than you. I will still protect you. Just because you call me brother."
"Mm …" Yang Lingqing was moved to tears. She held Long Chen's hand tightly and said, "Mm, I believe you can do it. I will wait for you."
Such a scene touched the others. Even Li Xuanji felt a ripple in her heart.
"How would this young man know how difficult it is to fulfill this promise … Perhaps, it's impossible. Let alone the Imperial Domain, he might not even be able to leave this country in his lifetime. It's a pity that I can't use that mysterious sword …" Li Xuanji thought to herself.
Suddenly, she thought of something and said to Long Chen, "Come with me."
Long Chen followed her and walked to the side.
"The sword spirit in the sword seems to be a person's soul. Are you thinking of a way to restore her body?" Li Xuanji asked directly.
Long Chen did not expect her to know so much. However, when he saw that Li Xuanji seemed to have a way, he was a little excited and asked, "You have the Nine Heavens Immortal Fruit."
Lingxi had said that the Nine Heavens Immortal Fruit could help her restore her body.
"You know about the Nine Heavens Immortal Fruit?"
Li Xuanji was a little surprised, but she shook her head and said, "I don't have the Nine Heavens Immortal Fruit, but I know where to find it."
"Where?" Long Chen was very excited that Lingxi's matter had finally taken a turn for the better.
"In this small country of yours, there is a place. It's a small cosmos world. I've been there before and found that there are Nine Heavens Immortal Fruits there. This place is called Ni Yang's Fairyland," Li Xuanji said.
"Ni Yang's Fairyland."
Long Chen did not react for a moment. However, when he did, he revealed an ecstatic expression and said, "I know where Ni Yang's Fairyland is. Moreover, Yuan Ling City is about to hold the battle for the City Lord's Mansion. If I can become an Immortal Realm Divine Guard, I can enter Ni Yang's Fairyland and obtain the Nine Heavens Immortal Fruit."
He was so excited that he said everything that was on his mind.
Originally, he did not know how he could help Lingxi. However, he now had a clear goal, and that was to become an Immortal Realm Divine Guard.
"It seems that I have to return to the Lingwu family. Moreover, they do not know that Li Xuanji is leaving. They are afraid and would not dare to do anything to me," Long Chen thought to himself.
"Thank you," Long Chen was indeed very grateful to Li Xuanji for providing such information.
"She is so important to you." Li Xuanji's tone suddenly sounded a little displeased.
"She is indeed very important. Very important."
Long Chen did not notice it and said excitedly. However, he was shocked when he saw Li Xuanji's ice-cold gaze.
"Don't forget that you saw me naked in the Star Fiend Prison." Li Xuanji's voice was a little cold. A murderous aura exploded from her body.
"No man has ever seen me naked. I had originally decided that I would kill you after you collected the souls for me. However, on account of your sister, I will forget about this matter," Li Xuanji said calmly.
Long Chen broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, Yang Lingqing had not let him down and created a Great Yin Devil Body. Otherwise, he would have probably lost his life for blaspheming the Nine Yin Absolute Devil.
However, Li Xuanji was so beautiful, so it did not seem to be a loss …
"I'm leaving. I will give you something else."
At this moment, Li Xuanji took something out of nowhere. The moment she took it out, a fragrant aroma filled his nostrils. Long Chen took a sniff and immediately felt refreshed. He felt as though he was about to float into the sky.
The rich aroma attracted everyone's attention.
Long Chen felt a little strange. Li Xuanji had just said that she was going to kill him. Now, she was giving him something. It was indeed impossible to fathom a woman's mind, especially a woman like Li Xuanji who did not play by the rules.
"This thing is called the Mysterious Sky Jade Lotus," Li Xuanji said.
Long Chen observed it carefully. Although it was emitting a white light and looked like a round piece of white jade, it was actually a lotus root. It was about half a meter long and looked like an arm.
"What use does it have?" Long Chen asked.
Li Xuanji rolled her eyes at him and said, "The wandering soul can reside in the Mysterious Sky Jade Lotus and control it to transform into a human body. This way, the sword spirit of your sword will be able to transform into a human. But don't be too happy. This Mysterious Sky Jade Lotus has two flaws. First, it can only be used once. In other words, when the soul leaves the Mysterious Sky Jade Lotus or is forced out, the Mysterious Sky Jade Lotus will rot and disappear. The second flaw is that the body transformed from the Mysterious Sky Jade Lotus will be the same as an ordinary person. It will not have any fighting strength. Keeping it by your side will only be a burden, so do as you see fit."
Long Chen received the Mysterious Sky Jade Lotus. His heart was unable to calm down for a long time.
With this Mysterious Sky Jade Lotus, as long as Lingxi woke up, she would have a chance to become a human again. But she would lose all her strength. Moreover, as long as the Mysterious Sky Jade Lotus was damaged, she would still have to return to Lingxi's sword.
But it was better than nothing. At worst, he would use the Mysterious Sky Jade Lotus and then use the Nine Heavens Immortal Fruit.
"Thank you." Towards Li Xuanji, Long Chen was actually very grateful.
"I gave you this Mysterious Sky Jade Lotus because I feel that you have no chance of obtaining the Nine Heavens Immortal Fruit for the time being. Long Chen, listen to my advice. If you really like her, then let her use this Jade Lotus and become an ordinary person. Then find a place and live a good life with her. This world is too big. People like you who live in the corner have no chance of reaching the top. You might as well live in peace." Li Xuanji said indifferently.
In fact, she was only thinking for Long Chen's sake.
She thought that Long Chen would give up. But Long Chen was a person with the mysterious Dragon Jade. He was a dragon warrior who had disappeared for a long time. How could he be scared by Li Xuanji's words?
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
Long Chen couldn't be bothered to argue with her. He secretly swore to himself that he would fulfill the promise he had made to Yang Lingqing in this lifetime. He would stand upright in front of Yang Lingqing and Li Xuanji.
"Then we'll never meet again."
This young man had seen her body, but she couldn't kill him. However, Li Xuanji thought that Long Chen would disappear from her world forever. That was no different from being dead.
Just like that, under Yang Lingqing's loving gaze, they left Baiyang Town and embarked on a new journey.
As he watched them leave, Long Chen's heart was filled with a monstrous fighting spirit.
"When Lingxi wakes up, I'll let her use this Mysterious Sky Jade Lotus. Then we can have a good time …" Long Chen thought wretchedly. Actually, this was his true goal.
"Then now, Dongfang family, wait for me. I, Long Chen, must have a spot to enter the ancient ruins. Immortal realm divine guards, Nine Heavens Immortal Fruit, wait for me."
The sun rose. Four hours later, Long Chen bid farewell to his family in Baiyang Town and rode the Wind Splitting Divine Roc towards Yuan Ling City.
What was waiting for him in front of him?
