Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor-Chapter 475 - 472: Unifying the Miao Territory! [First Update]

Chapter 475: Chapter 472: Unifying the Miao Territory! [First Update]

Li Chen’s voice wasn’t loud, but it gave Lian Hongshang an unprecedented sense of security.

She tilted her head up slightly, glanced at Li Chen’s sharply defined profile, and her dimples swirled.

"Chen, you are my sun, the sun that forever rises high. Meeting you in this life is my greatest fortune!"

Li Chen then gently twirled her locks with his fingers, smiling faintly, "Then before this, didn’t you repeatedly claim that you wanted to kill me?"

Lian Hongshang rolled her eyes and retorted, "Who asked you to ignore me, to act so serious, saying you had no interest? Since you had no interest, why did you still..."

Halfway through her words, she felt that what came next was too embarrassing to utter, and her cheeks blushed "whoosh" at the thought.

Seeing Lian Hongshang’s blushing cheeks, Li Chen asked with interest, "Why did I what?"

"You annoying, bad egg!"

Lian Hongshang glared at Li Chen, then intentionally turned her little head to the side, adopting a stance of ignoring him. ƒгeewebnovёl.com

However, whenever Li Chen called her name, she would subconsciously turn back towards him.

"Hongshang!"

"Hmm?"

"Now that your master has ascended to immortality, both Heavenly Demon Ancestor and Golden Cauldron True Man have died, what plans do you have for what comes next?"

Hearing "master has ascended to immortality", a hint of sorrow flickered in Lian Hongshang’s eyes.

She fell silent for a long time before shaking her head, "I don’t know. After this battle, our Witch God Sect has suffered greatly; we need to first reorganize the sect before anything else!"

Having said this, she then snuggled tightly into Li Chen’s embrace and asked, "Chen, what do you want me to do?"

Li Chen pondered for a moment and said, "All things under heaven separate after a long union, and unite after a long separation. Although Miao Territory remains secluded, it is no exception. Now that Yin Ghost Sect has been eradicated, Heavenly Demon Ancestor is dead, and Heavenly Demon Sect is like a dragon without a head, the remaining three Great Families are no threat and not worth concerning over. This is the best opportunity to unify Miao Territory!"

Lian Hongshang gently nodded her head, smiling softly, "Okay, I will listen to you. Actually, my master also had this wish while she was alive. But she was wary of Yin Ghost Sect and Heavenly Demon Sect joining forces, and that’s why she didn’t put it into action!"

"I’ll have Long Wuhen, Chen Buyi, and the people from Bai Family all follow your orders, and leave the Snow Monster here as well!"

Hearing Li Chen say this, Lian Hongshang suddenly looked up at him intently and asked, "Are you going to leave?"

Li Chen thought for a moment and said, "The Yuann Family from Central Continent, Bashu Tang Sect, the forces of Dragon Tiger Mountain – they’ve all suffered losses among their direct disciples and are unlikely to let things go so readily. If we do not deal with all of them, they will always pose a nuisance."

Worry rippled in Lian Hongshang’s beautiful eyes.

"These are families and sects with a legacy spanning hundreds, even thousands of years. Can you handle it alone?"

Li Chen lightly lifted Lian Hongshang’s chin with his hand and asked with a smile, "What, do you doubt your husband’s capabilities?"

Lian Hongshang, hearing Li Chen self-identify as "husband," was secretly thrilled and bashfully replied, "Not at all, I am just worried about you!"

Li Chen pinched her cheek, which was as tempting as a red apple, and said, "There’s nothing to worry about. Although I have not yet reached the God Realm, dealing with someone like Golden Cauldron True Man, who is just an ordinary God Realm practitioner, is a piece of cake!"

"Actually, the Yuann Family of Central Continent and Bashu Tang Family are secondary concerns. Whether it’s a few days earlier or later, it makes little difference. What I really want is to go to the Imperial Capital Li Family and inquire about some events from twenty years ago!"

Lian Hongshang widened her eyes in confusion and asked, "Aren’t you a member of the Imperial Capital Li Family?"

Li Chen paused to think before saying, "Whether I am or not, I’m not clear about it myself right now, so I need to go and get some answers!"

Lian Hongshang was confused, and her clear eyes rippled with curiosity.

"Hmm, ask about what?"

Li Chen organized his thoughts for a moment and then recounted the secrets he had learned from Golden Cauldron True Man, as well as the doubts in his heart, one by one.

However, he didn’t mention anything about his life before rebirth.

This wasn’t due to a lack of trust in Lian Hongshang, but because those past events were too significant and it wasn’t the right time to discuss them.

After hearing Li Chen’s narration, Lian Hongshang was stunned into speechlessness.

Silent for a long while, she hesitantly asked, "Chen, if, I mean if, everything Golden Cauldron True Man said is true. If Li Lingyun was indeed killed by his own grandfather Li Jinliang in the name of justice, would you..."

Before she could finish, Lian Hongshang dared not continue and instead focused intently on the changes in Li Chen’s expression.

A moment of conflict flashed in Li Chen’s eyes.

After a long silence, he finally spoke, "The whole story is not yet clear, and I don’t know how to handle it. Let’s just take it one step at a time and see what happens then!"

Lian Hongshang, sensitive and thoughtful, empathized with Li Chen’s feelings at this time, so she didn’t continue. Instead, she held his hands and hugged him tightly.

"Chen, no matter what happens, I’ll stand by your side until the end of time!"

Li Chen didn’t say anything more, but instead hugged Lian Hongshang tightly and rested his face against her cheek.

At this moment, all words seemed feeble, all text powerless. Silence was the best reply.

The moon hung high in the sky, with mountains layered upon mountains in the distance. Nearby, insects chirped tirelessly, singing their endless ballad.

So, Li Chen and Lian Hongshang sat leaning on each other, through the entire night until the sky began to brighten with the first light of dawn.

By noon, the Snow Monster returned.

Its snow-white fur was stained red with blood, as if it had just crawled out of a pool of blood.

Clearly, it had just experienced a very fierce battle.

Upon seeing Li Chen, it started pounding its chest and making gestures with whines and squeaks.

Li Chen, observing the Snow Monster’s hand signals, asked, "Are you saying that Yuann Jinxiong and his people have run away?"

The Snow Monster, noticing that Li Chen understood its message, nodded vigorously.

It then hung its head down, like a student who had done something wrong, waiting for the teacher’s reprimand.

Li Chen took out some healing pills and threw them to it.

"Let them run, they can’t escape from the temple even if they can run away as monks. This blood debt will be settled at the Hongmen Headquarters sooner or later!"

After speaking, Li Chen gestured towards Lian Hongshang and said, "From now on, she will be your new master. Her commands are my commands, do you understand?"

The intellect of the Snow Monster was similar to that of the Jiao Long, roughly comparable to a six or seven-year-old child. It could barely understand human speech, but grasping the implications was truly challenging for it.

What was this situation? Was it being abandoned by its master for not doing a good job?

With these thoughts, it became very agitated and chattered continuously.

Lian Hongshang was startled by the Snow Monster’s sudden behavior, her beautiful large eyes wide open and unblinking as she looked at Li Chen.

Li Chen feigned an angry expression and scolded the Snow Monster, "Calm down, don’t go crazy, I’m just asking you to stay here for a while, what are you howling about?"

This time, the Snow Monster understood Li Chen’s words and immediately behaved itself.

Lian Hongshang covered her mouth with her slim, white hand and giggled.

"There’s a hot spring behind the mountain, let it go take a bath first!"

The Snow Monster barked twice and then followed someone towards the hot spring at the back of the mountain.

After watching the Snow Monster leave, Lian Hongshang looked at Li Chen and asked, "Why did only the Snow Monster return on its own? What about your Jiao Long and Divine Tiger, could anything have happened to them?"

Li Chen also felt uneasy and was ready to use his consciousness to probe for their whereabouts.

His brows furrowed tightly.

Lian Hongshang asked anxiously, "Chen, what’s wrong?"

Li Chen gazed in the direction of the Heavenly Demon Sect and said sharply, "Not good, those two little ones have encountered trouble on Heavenly Demon Mountain!"
