After returning to the Five Great Dragon Cities, Long Chen was greeted with the most respectful cheers.
As expected of Long Chen. What no one else could accomplish, as long as he returned, although there were many twists and turns, he still easily accomplished it. Although it was Di Yao who helped him, Di Yao helping Long Chen was also one of Long Chen's abilities.
Lingxi, Mo Xiaolang, Soyeon, and Kitten had returned long ago and were waiting for him with the other Dragon Warriors. Receiving these heartfelt cheers, Long Chen couldn't help but say, "This time, I've made everyone worried and scared. Although the world is different, no matter what difficulties we encounter in the future, as long as we unite, we will definitely be able to solve them."
Putting aside the gods and just talking about the living beings of the Dragon God Domain, to be honest, the Five Great Dragon Cities were still the strongest. They had received the 'Eternal' Chaos Treasure's blessing. Although they didn't put in as much effort as the gods of the other cities, their progress was still quite fast.
After that, he met with the fifteen Dragon Emperor, Yang You, and the others one by one.
Long Chen briefly explained about the Curse Realm, reassuring everyone.
He said, "After today's incident, the gods will no longer come to harass the Five Great Dragon Cities. Thunder God from the Ninth Heaven was just an accident. Now that the God King of Hell is very optimistic about me, the other gods probably won't come looking for trouble for no reason. Everyone can be at ease."
"It's all thanks to you."
After chatting for a while, Kitten suddenly appeared and asked sneakily, "Boss, how do you feel? Is that Di Yao a virgin?"
This guy's words had always been so shameless, especially now that they were in front of everyone. Long Chen really wanted to seal his mouth.
Lingxi knew that he was joking, so she didn't really care. She just glanced at Kitten angrily and said, "If you continue to gossip like this, even fewer girls will like you. Believe it or not, you will die alone."
Kitten put his hands on his hips and said, "Then you can rest assured. With this young master's charm, no female species can resist me. Obediently crawl into my arms."
After a while, Long Chen separated from the crowd and returned to his residence, the Crimson Dragon Palace.
"Big Brother, thank you so much this time." Mo Xiaolang held Soyeon's hand and said from behind.
Long Chen turned around and said, "We're brothers, so don't be so formal. Besides, I'm the one responsible for this, Xiao Lang. Although it seems like we're being suppressed at the moment, there will be a day when they'll act according to our wishes. You won't be satisfied with that either, right?"
The Primordial Gods were not as benevolent and wise as he had imagined them to be. Instead, they were a bunch of powerhouses filled with emotions and desires. Long Chen had originally been very respectful towards them, but now, he no longer had that respect in his heart.
"Yes." Mo Xiaolang nodded.
Needless to say, they understood each other's intentions.
"Yan 'er, it's a good thing that the two of you can improve together. If Demon Wa's killing intent affects you too much, you have to tell us in advance. Trust us." Long Chen reminded her.
Soyeon nodded obediently and said, "I understand. Big Brother Long Chen, we'll be leaving first."
After saying that, they parted. Of course, they were cultivating nearby, and if they needed to communicate, they could just say so. To them, this bit of distance only took an instant.
Finally, Lingxi was left alone. This delicate beauty smiled and looked at him. She knew Long Chen's every move.
Sitting under the eaves, Long Chen wrapped his arms around her waist and placed them on her beautiful and smooth stomach. He whispered in her ear, "Actually, I don't know what this Di Yao wants to do. Maybe she's just a mischievous child who likes to mess around. In the future, I'll have less contact with her."
"You don't have to tell me this." Lingxi's crystal clear eyes looked into the distance and said, "I understand you better than you understand yourself."
Since that was the case, Long Chen was at ease. Lingxi could always understand his intentions. This was the most beautiful part about her.
"If there's nothing else, I'll cultivate in peace and strive to face the Great Calamity of Gods and Devils as soon as possible. I'll become a true god and reach the True Dragon Realm. In the future, we can search for traces of God Emperor Ling Su in this world and head to the Origin Dragon Palace to take a look. Maybe, there will be new discoveries. I've discovered that the Great Calamity of Gods and Devils is coming soon."
"Will it be dangerous?"
Long Chen said solemnly, "It's my last calamity. Judging from the previous calamities, it definitely won't be simple. There will definitely be danger, but I have a certain degree of confidence now. If nothing unexpected happens, there shouldn't be a problem."
"That's good …"
Ling Xi also gently caressed her lower abdomen, her eyes filled with the radiance of motherhood. This child had caused her mentality to change greatly. She stared at the child in her abdomen and said, "I reckon that she will be born in a few years. I must protect her well."
Being a father, being a mother, that kind of feeling would make one grow up a lot.
Following that, Long Chen started cultivating. Ling Xi accompanied him as he cultivated, not leaving his side at all.
As Long Chen expected, no other gods came to find trouble with the five great dragon cities. They seemed to be busy with other things. The ancient cities of 72 divine descendants and the five great dragon cities lived in harmony. The influence of the gods spread throughout the Dragon Sacrificial Dragon World, while the five great dragon cities lived in seclusion and no longer cared about worldly affairs.
It seemed like the days were going to be peaceful like this.
In fact, it wasn't. The peace was for the sake of brewing a bigger storm.
Di Yao was now on the way to the Hell God City.
"Child, if you wait for your father to come and you still haven't won his affection, with his dazzling performance, your father will definitely notice if you get along with him at that time. Therefore, you must complete the most important challenge of your life before your father comes. This is the best opportunity that fate has given you. It arranged for you to go to the Dragon Sacrificial Dragon Continent first and meet the most suitable person for you in this life."
Di Yao always remembered what her mother had said to her.
That mysterious woman had accompanied her in all kinds of ways when she was still young. Compared to her father, Di Yao was more dependent on this woman.
Although she hesitated a lot, she finally decided that she must complete this matter.
"If I can complete it, I will have the power to be at the pinnacle of the myriad worlds and become a God Emperor that surpasses my parents. Even higher, I will reach the God Realm, the final God Realm of Taiyi. It is even possible to become 'Tai God' or 'Supreme God'. This way, I can fulfill my mother's wish and save her. Long Chen, and your woman, I can only sacrifice you two. Who asked you to provide me with such a good opportunity?"
After going through many struggles, she no longer had any hesitation today.
She indeed felt some gratitude towards Long Chen, and even had a hazy good impression of him. However, this couldn't stop her desire to become a supreme expert, and she couldn't stop her mother's wish. That woman had grown up with her from the very beginning, and she was the most important person in her heart, even more important than Di Jun.
In the blink of an eye, she arrived at the Hell God City. However, she concealed herself and sneaked in until the God King of Hell suddenly appeared behind her.
"Little God Emperor, you sneaked into my Hell God City. You didn't come in to find me, did you?"
The God King of Hell had a straw in his mouth and asked sloppily.
It had been peaceful recently, so the God King of Hell was quite relaxed.
Di Yao turned around and saw that her expression was solemn and gloomy. She said, "That's right, I'm here to find you."
The God King of Hell was dumbfounded. He asked, "What's there to find? Little God Emperor, you're not having fun on this Dragon Sacrificial Continent and want to go back first?"
This was what he was most worried about.
Back then, she was the one who insisted on coming first. Now, she was the one who insisted on leaving first.
Contrary to his expectations, Di Yao shook her head and said, "Be a little more serious. I came here today to make a deal with you. Help me with something, and I'll give you a reward."
The God King of Hell was dumbfounded.
He never thought that this girl would actually make such a deal with him. Logically speaking, if it was a normal matter, she would normally order him to do it directly and absolutely wouldn't use this kind of method. This was enough to prove that the matter she wanted him to do was a little difficult and had to be concealed.
"Princess, speak." The God King of Hell spat out the straw with a solemn expression.
Di Yao struggled a little, but in the end, she still clenched her teeth. Her eyes faintly emitted killing intent as she said gloomily, "I want you to help me kill someone."
The God King of Hell was already mentally prepared. As expected, it wasn't an easy task. He asked, "Who? Mysterious Ice Goddess?"
He roughly knew that Di Yao didn't like this god. With her temper, it was normal for her to kill someone she didn't like.
However, Di Yao shook her head and went straight to the point. "It's not her. Listen carefully. You've seen this person before. With your strength, you can easily do it without attracting anyone's attention. This person is …"
At this point, the God King of Hell was already guessing.
Di Yao gave the answer. "She's Long Chen's woman. Her name is Lingxi. You've seen her a few days ago."
The God King of Hell was stunned.
No matter how he racked his brains, he couldn't understand why the dignified daughter of a god emperor would suddenly want to kill an unrelated woman.
However, seeing how serious and resentful Di Yao was, she definitely wouldn't joke with him.
The God King of Hell thought for a moment and said, "Princess, I'm a little confused. Can you help me understand something … If that's the case, although it won't be too big of a problem, there has to be a small reason. You've only seen this woman once."
Di Yao's eyes turned cold. She didn't answer the God King of Hell's question. Instead, she said, "This is a deal. If you help me kill her and promise that you and I won't leak anything and won't let Long Chen suspect us, then in the future, when I'm strong enough to become a god emperor, I'll give you an 'orderly' treasure."
"Orderly."
The God King of Hell was dumbfounded.
Although he had a Genesis Rank treasure, an Order-rank treasure was something that he could only dream of. Generally, only ultimate stage God Kings could possess an Order-rank treasure. He did not doubt the possibility of Di Yao obtaining such a treasure. What shocked him was that this transaction was actually so important to Di Yao that she was even willing to make such a promise.
