Otherworldly-Cultivator

"Emperor!" Ou Yongjie and Jiao Zhixin immediately knelt as soon as Chen Li appeared in front of them, but his current appearance slightly surprised them. After all, the current him was no longer a young man; he was already a mature man in his early 40s, yet his face had not aged one bit.

Chen Li waved his hand and lifted the two of them up. "It's been a long time since we last saw you, Yongjie and Zhixin. I am still in awe of the fact that you, who used to behave like a mouse and a cat, are now married. You two have even raised two outstanding sons together."

"Haha." Ou Yongjie laughed as he rubbed his head. "Many things changed after you and Empress Feng died, including our relationship."

"Back then, our relationship was never good, but it became more positive after that day." Jiao Zhixin then pointed to her husband. "In fact, I was the one who asked him to marry me, or else he wouldn't have had the courage to propose to me."

"Even though it's a bit late, I still want to congratulate you both on your marriage, and I hope your two sons will be proud children for both of you." Ou Yongjie and Jiao Zhixin smiled broadly upon hearing that. "What about this teleportation crystal? Can we move them to the ancient Qin Clan realm now?" freewebnσvel.cøm

Jiao Zhixin answered him directly. "Currently, Yongjie and I are doing the final inspection, and we will activate it immediately after everything is settled."

"However, we don't know the exact location of that realm or even its condition, so we can't be sure whether the realm is still habitable or not. We plan to check it first before we send them there." said Ou Yongjie.

Chen Li nodded in understanding. "You two don't need to go to that realm, and I will personally check it once you activate this teleportation crystal, so you can contact me immediately after it's ready."

"Yes, Emperor."

"By the way, I'd like you two to stop referring to me as an emperor." Chen Li's request surprised and confused Ou Yongjie and Jiao Zhixin. "Emperor Long is indeed an emperor, but I am now Chen Li, and I am not interested in becoming an emperor. Instead, I want a more peaceful and calm life for myself and everyone by my side, so you can call me and Xian'er a brother and a sister from now on."

Xiao Kong'er had informed them about the wishes of Chen Li and Feng Xian'er, to which Ou Yongjie and Jiao Zhixin immediately consented. "In that case, we will address you two as a brother and a sister."

After he chatted with them for a while, Chen Li left the Illusory Forest and went to the former location of the Mo Clan's old sect, but his expression was very serious because the entire area was already shrouded in darkness, especially since Xiao Hei was leaving together with the others to look for profound veins.

Chen Meiyi suddenly appeared beside Chen Li and asked him, "Are you thinking of absorbing this darkness? You do have the darkness element, but you are not a spirit of darkness like Xiao Hei, so you cannot absorb it directly. Moreover, this darkness can control and change a person's character, just like what happened to Quan Xi. Additionally, you mentioned that Hermit Long's character is beginning to influence you, so it would be prudent for you to avoid making rash decisions such as absorbing this darkness."

"I have no intention of absorbing it." Chen Li responded by stretching his hand forward and shooting a large ball of light qi downwards, but the darkness immediately swallowed it. "Can your light element purify this darkness?"

"No." Chen Meiyi shook her head. "My light element has reached peak level, but my cultivation still hasn't returned. If I want to purify this darkness, I have to reach my old cultivation level first."

"As long as we can't find someone with a light element that is almost on par with you, we will never be able to defeat the Dark Race, especially since their darkness can devour other elements. Xiao Hei can absorb it, but she can't possibly absorb all the darkness that has spread throughout this universe." Chen Li suddenly remembered something and turned to Chen Meiyi. "As I recall, you founded a hidden sect, right? If my memory serves me correctly, the sect is known as the Light Pavilion, with Ye Lian serving as its master."

After hearing that, Chen Meiyi was momentarily stunned, particularly because her focus was solely on restoring her cultivation and not on anything else. As Chen Li had stated, she was indeed the founder of the Light Pavilion, a sect dedicated exclusively to cultivators of the light element. However, she had never taken care of it herself, and she had left the affairs to the people she had personally chosen in the past.

Chen Meiyi sighed heavily as she recalled this. "Ye Lian is indeed the sect master of the Light Pavilion, and I already regard her and Ye Ling as my biological daughters. A thousand years have passed since my death, but I am sure they must still be thinking of me even now. Unfortunately, the sect is located on the border of the Five Divine Heavens, so I can't possibly get there with my current cultivation. If those traitors discover my presence there, they will undoubtedly attack and kill me once more."

"Yeah." Chen Li then contemplated several options. "In that case, you can go find Ou Yongjie and Jiao Zhixin, and they might have a way to contact the two little girls. If they can do it, you can tell them about our situation so they can start preparing themselves from now on, and we will meet them before we go to the Five Divine Heavens."

"All right."

After Chen Meiyi disappeared from his sight, Chen Li immediately returned to the Tianyi Realm, but he then went to Earth to check on it. After all, some of his women and his non- cultivator subordinates were still living there, so he wanted to make sure they were safe.

.

"Are you ready?" Xiao Kong'er asked Dongfang Hanyue.

Dongfang Hanyue grinned faintly. "Send me there now, Big Sis Kong'er. I have been training and cultivating diligently for over twenty years, and my cultivation has reached the Nirvana Realm now, so I am confident in subduing him."

"Good luck." Dongfang Hanyue immediately entered Baihu's subspace as soon as Xiao Kong'er opened it.

Like when they first met, Baihu was lying in the middle of his sub-realm, and his nose twitched when he sensed Dongfang Hanyue's presence. He immediately opened his golden eyes and looked seriously at her, but his expression was pure shock as soon as he detected her cultivation.

Unlike Dongfang Hanyue, who had been training hard for over twenty years since their first meeting, Baihu's time had only been two years and seven months, so he was completely shocked by her rapid cultivation progress.

"Hehe." Dongfang Hanyue giggled at Baihu's expression. "Are you surprised to see me? Our deal was for five years, but I was confident that I could defeat you now, so I purposely came here much earlier than our agreement."

"How could your cultivation reach the Nirvana Realm in less than three years, little girl?" Baihu asked while staring at Dongfang Hanyue.

Dongfang Hanyue immediately took out her purple spear. "Once you acknowledge me as your master, you will discover everything, so prepare yourself, as I will defeat you."

"Hahaha." Baihu laughed loudly as he stood on all fours. "I like your spirit, little girl. However, it is not easy to subdue me, Baihu, the white tiger. Since you are so confident in your current strengths and abilities, you can show what you have to me now. However, you must remember that I will not hold back against you, and I will teach you what fear is."

"Humph!" Dongfang Hanyue snorted as she simultaneously activated her lightning and wind elements, enveloping her body in a purple and green aura. "You may be intimidating to others, but my husband is far more frightening than you, so I'm not afraid of you."

Dongfang Hanyue immediately flew towards Baihu at full speed, thrusting her spear towards him. Instantly, her spear lengthened with the help of her lightning element, but the white

tiger was unfazed by that.

After all, Baihu taught Dongfang Hanyue about her lightning technique, so he had memorized everything. Despite his enormous size, he swiftly vanished from his position, reappeared above her, and stomped his right front paw in her direction.

Baihu's attack penetrated Dongfang Hanyue's body, causing a cluster of purple lightning to directly electrocute him. However, it did not affect him at all, and it was like a gentle tickle to him. "Not bad, little girl. You've mastered the lightning clone perfectly, but this isn't enough to subdue me, so you'd better use all your abilities. Otherwise, I will never acknowledge you

as my master."

"Is that so?" Baihu immediately looked up and saw a large lightning formation already arranged above him. Additionally, four wind walls suddenly appeared from all four sides, enclosing him within. "Heaven's Lightning Fury Array! Strike!"

*Zap...Zap...Zap...*

Dozens of purple lightning bolts descended from the lightning formation, and they quickly

shot toward Baihu. However, the white tiger would not allow Dongfang Hanyue to attack him, and his body was enveloped by thick purple lightning. "Lightning Annihilation Art!

Strike!"
