Upon hearing Ximen Qingxue’s inquiry, Li Chen was surprised.

For a moment, he truly couldn’t recall what he had promised her.

Ximen Qingxue noticed that Li Chen seemed to have forgotten and pouted, saying coquettishly:

"Humph, you really forget things easily!"

Li Chen curled his lips and said, "I used to have a good memory, but ever since being with you, it’s gotten worse!"

After speaking, he shrugged, with a look that said "don’t blame me."

Ximen Qingxue caught on to Li Chen’s teasing and stepped forward to pinch him hard.

Li Chen looked at Ximen Qingxue’s childish demeanor and asked seriously, "Qingxue, what exactly is it?"

Ximen Qingxue saw that Li Chen suddenly became serious, and her fair face blushed slightly.

She leaned close to Li Chen’s ear and whispered bashfully: "You promised me to give me a baby!"

After saying that, she lowered her head, her eyes somewhat evasive. She wanted to meet Li Chen’s gaze but seemed too shy to do it. Her appearance was quite alluring.

Li Chen glanced around and said, "Should we sow the seeds right here?"

"Huh?"

Although Ximen Qingxue and Li Chen had been intimate outdoors, it was always due to circumstances, a passive action.

"Tonight, come to my room; I’ll leave the door open for you!"

Leaving this sentence behind, Ximen Qingxue hurriedly rushed away like a thief.

Watching Ximen Qingxue’s departing figure, Li Chen shook his head helplessly.

In the dead of night, the battlefield was basically cleaned up.

Despite the fact that several Elders of the Jiuzhou Alliance had full authorization from Li Chen, allowing them to act within their discretionary power,

they dared not make decisions on their own and still sought Li Chen’s instructions one by one.

In response, Li Chen didn’t want to disrespect them and thus received each one individually, making corresponding directives.

After dealing with matters in this way, he continued until dawn before everything was wrapped up.

Suddenly, Li Chen felt like he had forgotten something.

But after a night of hectic activity, his mind was already muddled, and he couldn’t recall what he had forgotten.

Meanwhile:

Ximen Qingxue was in her room, hugging a pillow in lament.

Tonight, she even specifically put on someone’s favorite clothes, a very sexy semi-transparent gauze dress.

She had also lit very festive red candles, set two bottles of top-quality fine wines, and arranged various fruits and snacks for Li Chen to enjoy while sowing the seeds.

Everything was ready, only the east wind was missing!

But to her surprise, after waiting all night, the east wind never came.

"Humph, bastard, daring to stand me up! See if I’ll bother with you in the future!"

Ximen Qingxue hugged the pillow and gave it a fierce beating.

It seemed the pillow was akin to someone’s face.

...

The news of the demise of the black sword and Yun Ying, as well as the complete annihilation of the Heavenly Star Alliance led by the remnants of Heavenly Sword Mountain and Heavenly Demon Sect, swiftly spread across the Great Jiangnan.

The Nine-headed Sea Emperor received this news immediately.

To this, he was extremely fearful.

Before Li Chen left Earth, he signed an agreement with him.

However, due to Li Chen being away for ten years without any news, coupled with the resurgence of Spiritual Power on Earth, his Cultivation Realm had qualitatively improved, leading him to believe that even if Li Chen returned, he wouldn’t be necessarily inferior anymore.

Thus, the Nine-headed Sea Emperor unilaterally tore up the agreement.

Who would have thought that just after he did so, that freak Li Chen would forcefully return?

The Shaman King’s million-strong army, as well as the True Immortal Alliance of Jian Hee, and Old Demon Ouyang’s Heavenly Demon Sect, all vanished in an instant.

Based on Li Chen’s vengeful nature, the next target would surely be the Nine-headed Sea Emperor.

Although in the recent decade, the Nine-headed Sea Emperor’s strength had grown rapidly, making him incomparable to his past self,

he still harbored a sense of inexplicable fear and unease.

After all, the Nine-headed Sea Emperor wasn’t the same as before.

And Li Chen certainly wasn’t standing still during these ten years.

While the Nine-headed Sea Emperor pondered how to deal with Li Chen’s Thunderous Fury, two powerful figures suddenly stirred up the sea.

The Nine-headed Sea Emperor was shocked and gasped, "Did Li Chen come for me so soon?"

While he was still panic-stricken, he noticed two strong but unfamiliar figures slowly appearing before him.

"Who are you, daring to trespass into the sea territory?"

The minions under the Nine-headed Sea Emperor, seeing intruders, charged forward intending to block them.

However, before they could approach, a rough-looking young man suddenly opened his massive mouth, revealing sword-like teeth, and swallowed them.

It wasn’t long before thousands of minions became his meal.

Seeing this scene, the Nine-headed Sea Emperor was greatly astonished.

Though the opponent had only shown a small display, the power exhibited was no less than his own.

Remembering this, the Nine-headed Sea Emperor dared not be arrogant and hurried forward to pay respect.

"Who are you two? What brings you to seek me, Your Majesty?"

Before the Nine-headed Sea Emperor’s voice fell, the crude young man who had devoured the minions spoke: "We are from Chalk Star; I’m Long Ao, and this is my big brother Long Hai. We’re here to ask for your help!"

Hearing the opponent’s words, the Nine-headed Sea Emperor was greatly astonished.

Although he didn’t know where Chalk Star was, he knew clearly that these two were not to be trifled with.

With this in mind, the Nine-headed Sea Emperor tentatively asked: "What do you need help with?"

Long Ao replied: "Finding someone!"

The Nine-headed Sea Emperor was curious and interrogated: "Who?"

Long Ao said: "A Human Clan Cultivator named Li Chen!"

"Li Chen?"

Upon hearing the name Li Chen, a name akin to a nightmare, the Nine-headed Sea Emperor’s expression changed.

Long Ao and Long Hai, noticing the Nine-headed Sea Emperor’s sudden change in expression, were puzzled.

After exchanging glances, the heretofore silent Long Hai asked, "Do you know this Li Chen?"

The Nine-headed Sea Emperor didn’t directly answer Long Hai but instead asked another question.

"May I inquire why you two are looking for Li Chen?"

Before the Nine-headed Sea Emperor’s voice fell, the impatient Long Ao blurted out.

"For revenge, of course! He killed our clan member Long Ba, a vengeance that must be avenged!"

Hearing the two were looking for Li Chen for revenge, the Nine-headed Sea Emperor’s heart immediately settled.

He thought of taking advantage of their prowess to help eliminate Li Chen, the dire threat.

"Hey, my brother asked you, do you know Li Chen or not?"

Long Ao, seeing the Nine-headed Sea Emperor suddenly fall into silence, asked petulantly.

Jolted by Long Ao’s shout, the Nine-headed Sea Emperor quickly came back to his senses.

After sorting his thoughts, he replied: "Not only do I know him, but I’ve also had dealings with Li Chen!"

Upon hearing the Sea Emperor’s response, Long Hai and Long Ao were both surprised.

The Nine-headed Sea Emperor looked at Long Hai and Long Ao and then embellishing the story, elaborated on how he and Li Chen clashed, and how Li Chen oppressed him, playing the victim.

After all, the enemy of my enemy is my friend!

The Nine-headed Sea Emperor believed this was the best opportunity to eliminate Li Chen and couldn’t afford to waste it.

Long Ao shouted: "Since that’s the case, take us to Li Chen for revenge!"

The Nine-headed Sea Emperor feigned difficulty, saying: "You may not be aware, but Li Chen’s talent is extremely monstrous, and his strength unfathomable. Just us might not be enough..."

He deliberately left his words unfinished and closely observed Long Hai and Long Ao’s expressions.

He said it intentionally, wanting to test the true strength of these two visitors from afar.
