My gorgeous wife
Chapter 659 - 631: Descent

Chapter 659: Chapter 631: Descent

In the middle of the night, Li Chen suddenly got up from the bed.

He looked around and sensed that something was amiss—it wasn’t for any other reason, but he always felt as if something extra was inside his body.

Stealthily leaving the room, Li Chen went outside the villa before he began to carefully check his physical condition.

As True Qi circulated through his body, Li Chen was somewhat startled to discover that a new surge of energy had appeared within him.

Furthermore, this energy was of the same kind as the Ferocious Energy he had already subdued.

"What’s going on?" Li Chen frowned slightly. He had thought the issue within his body had been resolved, but just when he had sorted it out, another surge had emerged from who knows where.

"This thing is like a ticking time bomb," Li Chen couldn’t help but wryly smile.

Although this mysterious Ferocious Energy had saved his life on many occasions, it was also a result of his desperate struggles.

If he were not careful, he feared that he might really burst from this energy.

From An Qin, he gained new insights into cultivation.

It turned out that there were levels in cultivation, something Li Chen had not anticipated.

Although Li Chen didn’t know how strong those higher-grade powerhouses were, he understood that one’s body is a vessel, and the grade of cultivation probably equated to the size of this vessel.

And True Qi or energy were like water in the vessel; if one recklessly filled a small vessel with too much water, there would only be one outcome.

That would be the vessel exploding.

Li Chen didn’t want to be that exploding vessel, so he had to figure out a way to solve this problem.

"It seems I need to focus on cultivating," Li Chen pondered to himself.

He was no longer like before, where he had to suppress the energy with medicine. With his current strength, he could do it on his own.

After suppressing the energy, Li Chen returned to the villa once again.

At the same time, he understood that to subdue energy, one must continuously make breakthroughs in their own strength.

Only by enlarging the vessel could it hold more water.

Back in his room, Li Chen examined his body again, but still could not find where this new energy came from.

Shaking his head, he gave up the search.

"With my current strength, subduing that energy is already my limit. Now with another surge, I’m afraid I can’t handle it," he shook his head gently, feeling somewhat helpless.

According to An Qin, his strength was at the Upper Yellow Rank, so if he wanted to tame this newly emerged energy, he would need to break through once again; otherwise, he had no way to contend with this energy.

Fortunately, Li Chen’s strength was not what it used to be, and unlike before, he wasn’t completely helpless against this energy. Relying on his True Qi, he could suppress this restless energy on his own.

Without turning on the lights, he sat quietly in the room, contemplating his own path of cultivation.

Night, as dark as ink.

At this moment, in the sky above Jiangbei, a small shadow was taking advantage of the darkness to fly towards Linchuan.

Even Li Chen couldn’t guess that after the Black General’s death, such a peculiar thing would emerge.

The insect swarm buzzed through the sky, making a "buzzing" sound. Within this black shadow, there was also a presence of golden color.

Under the guidance of this golden insect, the swarm took advantage of the night and descended upon Linchuan.

After arriving in Linchuan, the insect swarm dispersed in all directions, but the golden insect flew straight to the exterior of a residential building, entering directly into one of the houses.

In the room, there was a girl in deep sleep.

The golden bug fluttered around for a moment before landing directly on the girl, and the next instant, strikingly merged right into her body.

And the girl, deep in slumber, was oblivious to it all.

This girl was none other than—Wang Qianqian!

Early in the morning, Li Chen crawled out of bed.

It was time for work!

For others, this might have been dreadful news, but for Li Chen, going to work was the happiest thing ever.

Because being able to work in peace meant that he had almost dealt with everything that was on his plate.

Upon arriving at the company, many people greeted Li Chen along the way, and he responded with a beaming smile to each one.

"What’s going on with Mr. Cheen?"

"No idea, but he must be pretty happy about something. Just look at that sleazy smile of his..."

"However, these past few days we’ve hardly seen Mr. Cheen around, he must have stumbled upon something good, right?"

"Could it be he’s got himself a girlfriend?"

"Don’t talk nonsense, our Mr. Cheen is a tough guy with two women like President Lin and Qianqian; how could those ordinary girls outside catch his eye?"

No matter what others said, Li Chen’s mood today was truly excellent. Having resolved the threat of the Black General, he was naturally in high spirits.

"Qianqian!"

Since he had arrived at the office quite early that day, Li Chen was seated in his office early on. Seeing Wang Qianqian coming, he quickly rushed out of the office and greeted her.

"Brother Cheen..."

Seeing Li Chen, Wang Qianqian’s face also showed a smile, having not seen Li Chen for several days, she had missed him.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk..."

"Mr. Cheen is so cool! Picking up chicks first thing in the morning."

Li Chen gave those guys outside a glance and flipped them the bird, then without another word, pulled Wang Qianqian into the office.

"Qianqian, have you been doing okay these past two days?" Looking at Wang Qianqian’s somewhat bashful face, Li Chen couldn’t help but ask with a smile.

"It’s been okay..." Wang Qianqian said softly, feeling embarrassingly shy when alone with Li Chen.

"So... have you missed me?" Li Chen asked.

"Of course... of course, I have!" Initially, Wang Qianqian’s instinct was to deny it, but after seeing Li Chen’s face, she couldn’t help but nod.

"I knew my Qianqian was the sweetest!" Li Chen reached out to embrace Wang Qianqian, gave her a gentle peck on the face, and chuckled.

Blushing intensely from Li Chen’s kiss, Wang Qianqian was at a loss for words for a long while.

Just then, Li Chen’s phone rang. After glancing at the message, the smile on his face subtly faded as he said to Wang Qianqian, "Qianqian, I need to step out for a bit for some work, you go on with what you were doing."

"Okay." Wang Qianqian nodded.

Li Chen turned and left the office.

However, unbeknownst to Li Chen, just then, a flash of golden light twinkled in Wang Qianqian’s eyes.

Not only did Li Chen not catch it, but even Wang Qianqian herself remained unaware.
