Seeing her mother's sad look, Liu Yiyi's eyes began to moisten again. She gently held Queen Qingli's arm and said, "No, mother, I don't blame you at all. I know you feel sad every time we rank last. That's why you made the bet. It's all my fault. I'm only in the seventh hurdle of the Reaching Heaven Realm today. I can't beat them. It's all my fault …"
Then, the mother and daughter began to apologize to each other endlessly.
When she saw Queen Qingli for the first time, she didn't think highly of Long Chen. When Long Chen was powerful and she intended to cultivate Long Chen, she let Long Chen kill her own core disciple. Long Chen felt that this woman was really cold-hearted at that time. But now it seemed that she also had a pitiful side. It could be seen that she loved her daughter very much, so she tried her best to dig out Long Chen and let him fight on behalf of the Qingli Palace. She didn't even stop Long Chen from killing Qin Huanyu.
As for the past, Long Chen gradually forgave Queen Qingli. It was really not easy for a woman to make a name for herself in this man's world and support such a big palace alone.
After they apologized to each other, Queen Qingli remembered the business. She looked at Long Chen with sparkling eyes and said, "Jiang Cheng, to be honest, Yiyi is still not a match for Ying Shaotian. Judging from his attack just now, do you think you have a chance to win? You have to think clearly. Yiyi's happiness depends on you. There is still a month. With your speed, do you have the confidence to defeat him?"
Long Chen thought about it and said, "In terms of cultivation, I should be confident. However, Ying Shaotian is the number one disciple of the Crimson Ghost King Palace, so the battle techniques he's learned are definitely better than mine. So, I'm lacking a battle technique." He was just about to ask for the Specter Doppelganger, and now the opportunity was right in front of him.
"What do you want?"
For the sake of Liu Yiyi, Queen Qingli didn't care about a combat skill. She had some doubts about Long Chen, but Long Chen's performance today had conquered her. Long Chen was actually first-class in terms of will and potential. But the Red Ghost King was blind and abandoned Long Chen. Instead, he looked for Zhao Wuji as a treasure.
"The King Level Combat Skill, the Phantom Doppelganger." Long Chen looked at Liu Yiyi and said with a faint smile.
Liu Yiyi and Queen Qingli were stunned. Queen Qingli looked at Liu Yiyi and said with a wry smile, "You saw the Phantom Doppelganger from Yiyi, right? You really have a good eye. Well, you can learn the Phantom Doppelganger, but you have to learn the King Level Combat Skill within a month. Don't forget, it's a King Level Combat Skill."
Long Chen nodded and said, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. As long as you give me the Phantom Doppelganger, I can basically solve all your problems for you."
Long Chen talked big, but Queen Qingli and Liu Yiyi believed him when they saw the firm look in his eyes. Finally, Queen Qingli nodded and said, "Well, that's it. The combat skills of our Qingli Palace are passed down by word of mouth. Anyway, you and Yiyi will work hard for the annual assessment, so you can stay together and let Yiyi teach you the Phantom Doppelganger."
"This …" Long Chen and Liu Yiyi were a little embarrassed. After all, it was not suitable for a man and a woman to be alone.
Queen Qingli stared at him and said, "Jiang Cheng, I warn you, don't have any ideas about my daughter, or I will kill you myself."
It could be seen that she was serious.
"Don't worry. Although your daughter is beautiful, it doesn't mean that every man likes her." Long Chen said.
Liu Yiyi was still a little confused at first, but after hearing Long Chen's words, she recalled how Long Chen had said that she had no breasts and no butt that night. An angry expression immediately appeared on her face, and there was a slightly intoxicating blush on her face.
"In this case, I'll go first. I want to go to the Third Devil Realm. Can you give me a message and let me go?" Long Chen heard that a personal disciple could go to the Third Devil Realm only with the permission of the Master. "
"That's right. I won't ask you what you're going to do. But there are monsters above the Seventh Level of the Heaven Stage in the Third Devil Realm. Many of them are more powerful than Yiyi. Are you sure you want to go there?"
"Well, it won't take long. When I come back from there, Yiyi and I will start to practice. What do you think?"
Long Chen nodded. The reason why he wanted to go to the Third Devil Realm was very simple. Now his strength had reached the peak, but Xiao Lang hadn't. Xiao Lang would be a great help to Long Chen in the future. Long Chen wanted to make Xiao Lang stronger as much as possible. In the Third Devil Realm, those powerful monsters with fire properties would be a good choice. Xiao Lang was now at the Fourth Level of the Heaven Stage. If Long Chen really encountered a battle that needed him, he couldn't help him for the time being.
After settling the matter of Xiao Lang, he could concentrate on practicing the Phantom Doppelganger until the annual assessment and the fight for the Emperor Flame Bead began.
Long Chen was a mysterious person. Since he asked, King Qingli knew that he had a sense of propriety. So, he nodded and gave him the message from the Devil King. With this message, Long Chen could reach the Third Devil Realm unimpeded. Later, King Qingli gave Long Chen an identity iron plate, which could prove that he was a pro-disciple.
After all these were done, Long Chen left King Qingli Palace.
King Qingli and Liu Yiyi still stayed here.
"Yiyi, what do you think of Jiang City?" King Qingli calmed down and asked softly.
Liu Yiyi thought for a moment and replied, "I think he's very powerful and mysterious. He's like a ball of fog that I can't see through. Sometimes, his performance is always unexpected, and his personality is also hard to fathom." Liu Yiyi thought for a moment.
King Qingli nodded and then asked, "Do you want to know what I think of him?"
"Of course. Mother, what do you think of him?" Liu Yiyi asked curiously.
"I feel that he is very dangerous, very dangerous. His body is full of thorns, and he will only retract his thorns when facing the people he is most familiar with. If you are together with him, if you can't control yourself, you will be pierced all over. So, Yiyi, do you understand what I mean? Don't attack him, but you are showing signs of it …"
"Ah."
Liu Yiyi was at a loss and said, "Mother, what are you talking about? I have just known him for a short time. You think too much."
"Really? Haha, maybe. I just want to remind you not to have too much contact with him when you teach him the Phantom Doppelganger." King Qingli chuckled softly.
"Why don't you teach him yourself?" Liu Yiyi was puzzled.
"He is much more wary of me than you. If I teach him, it will be bad if we fall out because of his wariness. I still need him to save you. But you are different. Your kindness will attract him firmly and make him fight for you." King Qingli said meaningfully.
"Ah, mother, I understand what you mean. You want me to like him, but I can't like him." Liu Yiyi finally understood what King Qingli meant.
King Qingli nodded and said sadly, "You are young and haven't experienced anything, so you don't understand anything. Whoever is moved by love first will die miserably and even lose all his dignity and be scarred."
"But mother, I don't understand what you mean." Liu Yiyi was a little stunned. "I don't understand.
"I don't understand. Look at me now. Don't you see anything wrong with me? Why does everyone have a father but you don't? Why has no one ever talked about your father? It's because no one knows who your father is, and it was just my wishful thinking. That's why I lost.
Queen Qingli said hysterically. After that, she gently pushed Liu Yiyi's arm away and said, "Remember what I said. Keep him in check for a while. After the assessment, you can ignore him …" Liu Yiyi said with a smile.
After that, King Qingli resolutely left the back corridor of the hall, leaving Liu Yiyi staring blankly at the direction he left …
"My … father."
… …
After Long Chen came out of King Qingli's Hall, he suddenly felt a little creepy. He knew that someone was hiding in the corner on the left and staring at him. With the Soul-Devouring Demon Pupil, he could easily see where the person was. Long Chen could guess who it was at once. He walked in that direction and saw the tall body of Mighty Demon General.
At this time, Mighty Demon General was a little surprised. In his impression, it should not be easy for Long Chen to discover his existence.
His eyes were covered with a thick layer of blood, which hid endless hatred. King Qingli's action of protecting Long Chen made Mighty Demon General feel more and more aggrieved. He was one of the 28 Great Demon Generals and one of the four Great Demon Generals of King Qingli's Hall. In the eyes of King Qingli, he was not as important as Long Chen.
"Boy, how dare you come here when I am here?" Mighty Demon General said in a gloomy voice.
"You were the one who leaked the news to the Red Ghost King last night, right?" Long Chen said lightly in front of Mighty Demon General.
"So what? I didn't expect that even Red Ghost King couldn't kill you. It seems that Empress Qingli favors you a lot." Demon General Ju Li sneered. "So what?
He said favor, not love. The nature of the two words was completely different. His meaning was obvious. He was saying that King Qingli fell in love with Long Chen's Xiao Bai face. That was why she was so desperate to protect Long Chen.
"I have been here for so long, but I don't seem to have heard who King Qingli's husband is. She is a widow. Otherwise, Mighty Demon General would not say that …" Long Chen thought to himself.
He raised his head, looked at Mighty Demon General, and said, "How dare you say such words. Aren't you afraid that I will tell King Qingli?"
Mighty Demon General sneered and said, "So what? She dared to do it, so why can't we say it? Only the Demon Emperor can control the life and death of a Demon General in the entire Ancient Demon Region. King Qingli has always been indiscreet. She gave birth to a girl before getting married. She doesn't even know who her husband is. She doesn't even allow me to say it. You can tell her that I have worked hard in King Qingli's Hall for so many years.
Looking at the appearance of this Giant Strength Demon General, he seemed to have gone crazy …
