Chapter 1105: Chapter 1077: New House

Li Chen felt great, absolutely great.

To be honest, during this time he really was a bit pent-up.

Ever since he inexplicably entered the minor world, Li Chen had been living a celibate life. He hadn’t rested long after returning before he got involved in Zhong Tian’s situation and had to leave again.

For a man in his prime, brimming with energy and having tasted certain wonderful experiences, it was undoubtedly a kind of torment.

Although Li Chen could use cultivation to suppress some of his desires,

it was only suppression after all, and without release, it also felt stifling.

As they say, it’s better to channel than to block, and that’s exactly the truth. After blocking it for so long, Li Chen finally let go a little, and he felt full of spirit.

Looking at An Qin, who was still sleeping soundly in bed, Li Chen didn’t disturb her. He tiptoed out of the room.

Last night, he did go a little overboard...

It was An Qin’s first time, and he wanted her more than once or twice in one night. Although An Qin was a martial artist, and her body was far stronger than that of normal women, being made to endure so many rounds in one night must have exhausted her.

Silently slipping out of the room, Li Chen glanced at the still slightly dark sky outside, darted into the kitchen, and began preparing breakfast.

He also wanted to rest a bit and spend the day with An Qin, but there’s quite a lot to do today, and he couldn’t take a break.

Just as Li Chen finished preparing breakfast, he suddenly heard the sound of the door opening.

Turning to look, Li Chen saw Wang Qianqian returning, looking fatigued.

"Isn’t this my beloved Little Qianqian? What happened to you? Come get something to eat; you’re making me so worried." In two steps, Li Chen was at the door, wrapping Wang Qianqian in his arms, whispering in her ear.

Wang Qianqian blushed and looked at Li Chen somewhat suspiciously, "Brother Cheen, did you do something guilty?"

"Uh." Li Chen’s face stiffened. "No? How could I?"

"You never used to be like this before," Wang Qianqian looked at Li Chen thoughtfully.

"I... ahem! I’m worried about you, that’s all. Look, you’ve been working overtime all night, just in time for a good meal to replenish some nutrients." Li Chen pointed to the breakfast he’d prepared on the living room table.

Wang Qianqian seemed a bit hungry too. As soon as Li Chen mentioned food, she was immediately drawn to the dishes on the table and didn’t hassle Li Chen anymore, heading straight for it.

Li Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief. When did this girl become so perceptive?

Though staying up late was indeed a bit damaging, with Wang Qianqian’s current strength, just a little rest should suffice. Maybe due to some other reasons, Li Chen still urged Wang Qianqian to rest earlier.

"Brother Cheen, are you heading out again?"

"Yep. There’s still some unfinished business with the Nether Army. Don’t worry, I’ll be back soon." Li Chen nodded, then suddenly looked at Wang Qianqian with a somewhat lewd smile.

"What’s up, do you miss me?"

Seeing Li Chen’s smile, Wang Qianqian was not a naive girl anymore, so she knew what he was thinking. Her face turned red, and without saying a word, she turned around and ran toward the room.

"Is that... a tacit agreement?" Li Chen chuckled bitterly. In retrospect, he really had neglected these women lately.

Li Chen’s task today was to go house-hunting with Fan Bayin.

After all, the man was an Earth-level expert who just joined their place. If even this mere request couldn’t be satisfied, then Li Chen, as the boss, would be overly harsh.

Picking up Fan Bayin, who had obviously been waiting a long time, at the Nether Army, Li Chen drove him around Linchuan City.

"Tsk tsk, I never noticed before; a city actually has so much scenery," Fan Bayin smacked his lips and said.

"Before? How long have you stayed outside?" Hearing what Fan Bayin said, Li Chen couldn’t help but wonder.

"Over twenty years, I think," Fan Bayin thought for a moment before responding.

Li Chen was silent for a moment. This man was quite the oddball, being outside for over twenty years but claiming he’d never seen a city’s scenery. How much of a homebody was this guy?

"It might be related to my family’s hereditary skills; many things just aren’t suitable for others to see. Gradually, I got used to not interacting much with people," seeing through Li Chen’s thoughts, Fan Bayin lit a cigarette, saying leisurely.

Li Chen nodded. Fan Bayin’s explanation made sense. Although, in his view, those ghost spirits and such were just different types of energy bodies, appearing in front of ordinary people would be a different matter.

Especially with those folk tales, if ordinary people saw the ghost spirits Fan Bayin summoned, wouldn’t they be scared to death?

"By the way, you said you wanted to see the house yourself. You haven’t told me what kind of place you’d like to live in," Li Chen asked after wandering around for quite a while.

"Hmm... somewhere secluded, preferably with more yang energy," Fan Bayin thought for a moment before replying.

"More yang energy?" Li Chen nodded, "Fits your style indeed."

Fan Bayin, hearing this, couldn’t help but get annoyed, "What do you mean by my style? It’s because of you! Last time my guardian spirit got worn out, I need a good place to recharge before I regain my combat power."

"Alright, alright..." Li Chen didn’t plan to argue with him about it since he was not familiar with those things anyway.

However, after wandering the city for half a day, Fan Bayin still hadn’t found a satisfactory residence, and Li Chen was starting to grow impatient.

"I say, you’re just looking for a place to stay; do you need to be so picky?"

"Of course, I need to be picky! It concerns my power’s recovery!" Fan Bayin retorted angrily.

"Wait... stop!"

Li Chen stopped the car as Fan Bayin suddenly pointed to an old house on the side, "There, that’s the place. I can smell it from here!"

"There?" Li Chen was stunned.

Indeed, the place seemed a bit vintage, close to the old town area. The building Fan Bayin pointed to also appeared rather ancient.

Getting out with Fan Bayin, they approached, and Fan Bayin immediately spotted a large tree in front of the old house, smiling appreciatively.

"This is the place. It even has a big locust tree; it’s indeed a great place!"

"Let me ask around," Li Chen inquired of the surrounding area.

Sure enough, it was an old house that had been unoccupied for many years. However, the owner seemed to have gone abroad, so contacting them could be a bit troublesome. Of course, that wasn’t much of an issue for Li Chen.

"Locust, in books, is the ghost, and this place is naturally rich in yin energy. To me, it’s indeed a great place!" Fan Bayin exclaimed joyfully.
