"Chen 'er, what are your plans for the next period of time?"
After settling Murong Yu's matter, the mess created by Long Chen could be considered to have been successfully resolved. Hence, Zhao Qingyun asked.
Murong Yu also listened carefully.
Long Chen was only seventeen years old, but he was already the strongest expert in the Cangyang Country. If he continued to stay in the Cangyang Country, he wouldn't have any room to grow. If that was the case, he wouldn't have any room to improve. A young man like Long Chen should go out and explore the world instead of staying in a small place like the Cangyang Country.
"I plan to return to my hometown, Yuan Ling City, and wait for Cangyang Country's matters to be settled. After Xiao Yu ascends the throne, I will leave Cangyang Country and go to the God Wushu Sage Dynasty." Long Chen had already made up his mind.
Whether Lingxi was by his side or not, Long Chen would go to the God Wushu Sage Dynasty. Long Chen and Lingxi's family didn't find her. It would be best if she could follow Long Chen. If Lingxi left, the only way out would be the God Wushu Sage Dynasty. Only through the God Wushu Sage Dynasty, Long Chen could go to other places.
As for returning to Yuanling City to see his family, one of them was to help Lingxi recover. The other was to help Lingxi recover.
"The God Wushu Sage Dynasty." Zhao Qingyun nodded. It would be more suitable for Long Chen to go there.
After hearing Long Chen's words, Murong Yu's eyes dimmed. If that was the case, it would be difficult for her to see Long Chen again. Long Chen could go far away, but she had to take care of the overall situation here. To her, this seemed a bit unfair.
However, her achievements today were all due to Sky Devil Palace's nurturing, so she didn't have any complaints.
Long Chen had restored her appearance and given her the Emperor Sword. He had already treated her very well.
"By the way, Chen 'er, do you know how to get to the Wushu Sage Dynasty?" Zhao Qingyun asked with concern.
"When I went to Jiang City this time, I found a Heaven and Earth Teleportation Formation in the Snow Peak Mountains. That should be the Heaven and Earth Teleportation Formation that leads to the Wushu Sage Dynasty, right?" asked Long Chen.
"You even know about the Cosmos Teleportation Formation?"
Zhao Qingyun was a little surprised, then she nodded, "Indeed, that is the Universe Transfer Array that leads to the God Wushu Sage Dynasty, but it has not been used many times. The people of the God Wushu Sage Dynasty will not come to a small place like ours, and we will not go to the God Wushu Sage Dynasty."
The main reason why the people of the Cangyang Kingdom did not go to the Shenwu Sacred Dynasty was because of the Sky-Connecting Elixir. In the Cangyang Kingdom, the number of people who possessed the Sky-Connecting Elixir could be counted on one hand.
"Master, how many Divine Pills will Xiao Lang and I need to go to the Wushu Sage Dynasty?" asked Long Chen immediately. This was what he was most concerned about recently.
Zhao Qingyun estimated for a moment, then said: "About fifty. The Qian Kun Transfer Formation consumes a lot of Connecting Heaven Pellets. With your and the wolf cub's strength, you'll need at least forty Connecting Heaven Pellets to complete the transfer."
"Fifty."
Long Chen was really frightened. He only had 100 Connecting Heaven Elixirs in his storage. He needed 50 Connecting Heaven Elixirs to use the Heaven and Earth Teleportation Formation once. He didn't know if the remaining 50 Connecting Heaven Elixirs would be enough for him to reach the Reaching Heaven State.
Long Chen immediately burst into tears.
"What? You don't have enough Divine Pills? How many Divine Pills do you have? From the Sword Emperor?" Zhao Qingyun asked with interest.
"A hundred." Long Chen replied.
Zhao Qingyun's expression tensed up, and he said with a bitter smile, "My Heavenly Demonic Palace has been passed down for so many years, but we only have seventy Connecting Heaven Elixirs. If Little Yu wants to reach the Reaching Heaven State, she will need around thirty Connecting Heaven Elixirs. Since you have fifty Connecting Heaven Elixirs left, I won't be supporting you anymore …"
Long Chen was speechless.
Of course, he had never thought of asking for Zhao Qingyun's Supreme Elixirs. He was about to go to the Divine Martial Sacred Dynasty. As long as he got there, he would be able to get as many Supreme Elixirs as he wanted. As for the remaining fifty Supreme Elixirs, he just needed to have enough Supreme Elixirs.
Thinking of this, Long Chen hurriedly healed Lingxi's body. He said, "Master, I'll leave the matters of the Imperial City to you for the time being. I'll pass down the order later. I haven't been home for a long time, so I'll go take a look now."
"You are in such a hurry."
Long Chen nodded. Actually, he was not in a hurry to go home, but to heal Lingxi's body.
Zhao Qingyun nodded and said, "Go."
Long Chen bade farewell to him and Murong Yu, then gave orders to the other forces in the Imperial City. The Demonic Palace Master was a Reaching Heaven State expert. If Long Chen wanted them to submit, how could they not submit?
Hence, Long Chen called out to Xiao Lang and hurried in the direction of Yuan Ling City.
Now, Long Chen was about to face the most important moment in his life. This would be a huge turning point. To be honest, Long Chen was very nervous. He prayed in his heart that if he successfully healed Lingxi's body, Lingxi's family would not come looking for him …
Lingxi was reluctant to part with Long Chen, but how could Long Chen bear to part with her? Long Chen only persisted in his heart. As a man, he definitely could not let Lingxi live like this forever. Otherwise, he would never forgive himself.
She was on Xiao Lang's back again.
Another gust of wind quickly swept past.
It was yet another sea of bright starlight.
Night fell. Under the starlight, Long Chen stared blankly ahead. At this time, Lingxi's small body, glowing with white light, flew out of Lingxi's sword. Long Chen extended his hand and let Lingxi sit on the back of his hand.
"Chen, you are very nervous." Lingxi's eyes were full of worry.
"Nonsense." Long Chen shook his head.
Then, he looked at Ling Xi solemnly and said, "You just said that the Nine Heavens Immortal Spirit Fruit has already been harvested for about four months, so a lot of its medicinal effects have already dissipated. If we let it continue to dissipate, the medicinal effects of the Nine Heavens Immortal Spirit Fruit will no longer be enough for you to reform your body in less than ten days."
Ling Xi helplessly nodded. She originally didn't want to tell Long Chen about this and let ten days pass. After ten days, the Nine Heavens Immortal Spirit Fruit would be useless and she wouldn't have to worry about it anymore. However, Ling Xi knew that Long Chen definitely wouldn't forgive her if she did that, so she chose to tell him.
"That means, I must let you refine it as soon as possible, at least within these five days. After five days, we should arrive at Yuan Ling City. At that time, I will let you refine it, understand?" Long Chen thought for a moment and made up his mind.
This time, he really had no regrets.
No matter what, he wanted Lingxi to have a healthy body. Only then would she be a real person. This was Long Chen's deepest wish for the past six months. When Lingxi had refined the Mysterious Sky Jade Lotus and obtained a body, Long Chen had been overjoyed. When Lin Zichen had forced Lingxi to give up the Mysterious Sky Jade Lotus, Long Chen had given him a broken body.
"Big Brother Chen, have you really chosen to do this?" Ling Xi's eyes were brimming with tears as she said faintly.
"For you, even if I die, I have no regrets," Long Chen said through gritted teeth.
"But I can't bear to part with you."
Lingxi's voice was heavy with sobs. This was like a heavy hammer hammering on Long Chen's heart. But in the face of absolute power, someone as weak as him could not do anything.
"Power. It's all because of power. If I had endless power at this moment, even if Lingxi's family came, I would still be able to chase them away. However, I can't. That's because even now, I'm still weak. The path of cultivation is endless. The current me is still just an ant amongst all living beings."
Thinking of this, Long Chen's heart was bleeding.
From the bottom of his heart, he had a strong desire for power, an endless desire.
Blood-colored dragons, billions and billions of them, roared and seethed in his body. Not only did Long Chen crave power, they also crave power. To a Divine Dragon, Long Chen was so weak that he couldn't even compare to a tentacle. Hence, he needed to grow, and grow even faster.
The night wind blew Long Chen's long hair.
"Little Xi."
"Yes."
Long Chen sighed and said, "I don't know if my decision today was the right one. I don't know if I'm a fool. I gave up the chance to be with you for the rest of my life. But I really can't make that choice."
"Chen … I understand you. But my family has unimaginable power. They are at a higher level than the Godly Wushu Sage Dynasty. Any one of them can destroy a dynasty. My worry is not without reason …"
Any one of them can destroy a dynasty.
Long Chen was stunned.
This was the first time Lingxi described to him what a true expert was.
Presumably, to those true experts, Cangyang Kingdom's number one, Long Chen, was a frog at the bottom of a well.
To Long Chen, this was a pressure as heavy as a mountain.
He took a deep breath and raised his head to look at the endless starry sky. Mortals could not control the evolution of the stars. Because to the stars, all mortals were fragile.
At this moment, Long Chen suddenly had an idea.
What he thought of was that the mortals below the starry sky were like ants. Even those who could destroy a Sacred Dynasty by themselves were just mortals below the starry sky. They were just thicker ants. He, Long Chen, possessed the essence blood of the Ancestral Dragon. One day, he would be able to reach the heavens and the earth, pluck the moon and pluck the stars. Why would he be afraid of these thicker ants?
At this moment, Long Chen's eyes exploded with great confidence.
He realized that his potential was limitless.
His trump cards, the mystique from the Ancient Blood Spiritual Dragon, and the Void Dragon Talisman were not simple. There was even the Dragon Jade that Long Chen knew nothing about. With so many earth-shattering trump cards, he, Long Chen, was destined to become the number one super existence in history. The force behind Lingxi was indeed powerful, but so what?
The boiling blood made Long Chen's heart burn.
"Little Xi, I have decided. When we reach Yuan Ling City and Baiyang Town, I want to see you refine the Nine Heavens Immortal Spirit Fruit. You are my woman, forever and ever."
