Chapter 783: Chapter 755 Safe Return

The sunlight gradually rose, and the giant claw slowly sunk back into the water again, the towering waves also calmed down bit by bit.

Everything that had just happened seemed as if it had never occurred.

Everyone looked at each other, clueless as to what had just happened.

Only Li Chen understood that perhaps, he had offended a formidable entity.

No matter what the self-proclaimed ’Behemoth’ was, just from that enormous claw, Li Chen could sense its power.

Even just a single claw gave him a feeling of being unable to resist.

Moreover, the aura in the nether gave him a taste similar to what he had experienced outside the Holy Mountain.

Even more so, it was stronger than the aura he had sensed outside the Holy Mountain!

He didn’t know what it was, but he knew that he probably had one more terrifying enemy to face.

"This is really a headache," Li Chen shook his head, and turned to look at Catherine and Ning Wangyang beside him, "Let’s clean up this mess and then leave."

With that, Li Chen pointed towards a few scattered Chupacabras not far away.

"Sure!" Catherine nodded, and behind Li Chen, several members of the Nether Army also nodded in unison, picking up handguns from the ground, and began to kill the last few fleeing Chupacabras one by one.

"Bang! Bang!"

With a few gunshots, the forest fell silent.

It was then that Li Chen curiously noticed that the strange aura he had felt earlier had completely dissipated.

The aura that once enveloped the forest and affected the mind was also gradually fading.

As if everything, with the death of the Mothman and the calming of the lake, slowly returned to normal.

The group exchanged glances, then helped each other and started walking towards the outskirts of the forest.

Nobody wanted to stay in this ghostly place any longer.

Having walked a distance, Li Chen saw that the group of people they had rescued earlier were still huddled there and had not left.

He smiled and greeted them.

Suddenly, a group of people who had been corralled by monsters all came to their senses.

Upon seeing Li Chen and the others, their faces revealed an expression of surprise and joy.

They had heard the noise earlier due to the commotion, but out of fear, they hadn’t dared to come closer. In fact, they had lost much hope for Li Chen and his companions, but now seeing them emerge, every one of them showed surprise and gratitude.

"The matter is resolved. I think such things won’t happen to you again," Li Chen said with a smile as he looked at the group of people.

"Thank you! Thank you!"

A group of people came in front of Li Chen, unable to hold back the tears welling up in their eyes.

Heaven knows how much suffering these ordinary people had endured since being captured by those monsters.

Such experiences were enough to be etched in their memories for a lifetime.

"Let’s go, I will take you back now."

Leading a group of people, Li Chen and his companions returned to Blotto Town.

Perhaps due to the disappearance of that aura, even the demonized creatures had vanished along the way. The journey for Li Chen and his companions was exceptionally smooth.

When they returned to Blotto Town, the residents widened their eyes in astonishment as they saw such a crowd emerging from the forest.

However, upon seeing the familiar faces among the crowd, they could not hide the excitement on their faces.

"Lisa!"

In the crowd, a man and a woman saw Lisa approaching Li Chen and the others and couldn’t help breaking down in tears.

"Dad, Mom!"

Seeing the man and woman approaching, Lisa’s face also revealed a look of surprise. The little girl, who had always seemed so strong, finally couldn’t hold back her tears at this moment.

Li Chen and his companions glanced at each other and then nodded.

Taking advantage of the moment when the crowd was still cheering, they quietly left the group.

"What’s the matter, not going to bask in the feeling of being a hero with them?" Catherine turned her head to look at Li Chen and Ning Wangyang.

"I’m not a hero," Li Chen shook his head.

"Not interested," Ning Wangyang shook his head as well.

They then looked at each other and burst into hearty laughter.

"Cough cough!" Ning Wangyang coughed twice, and immediately, more blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.

"See, this hero look is too shabby, isn’t it? Better go back and heal up first," Li Chen laughed.

At those words, Catherine also started laughing.

Although making jokes about someone who is hurt is a very impolite thing to do, among them, there was no such thing as politeness.

As long as one is alive, everything is fine!

Li Chen and the others left without a sound.

It was only a good while after they had gone that the townspeople came to their senses.

"Eh? Where did they go? Those heroes who saved us."

"Right, they were just here!"

"You guys really should have been more attentive, now the heroes must have left in a huff!"

With Lisa in her mother’s arms, her face instead broke into a smile, and her big eyes were looking towards the exit of the town.

"Big brother, have a safe trip!"

As the airplane streaked across the sky, after Li Chen and the others left Blotto Town, they rested for a day before directly boarding the plane, flying towards Linchuan.

If it were before, it wouldn’t really matter, but Li Chen had now moved all the key officers of the Nether Army to Linchuan.

Obviously, Linchuan had become the new headquarters of the Palace of the Nether King.

In any case, doing anything would feel a bit more reassured in one’s own headquarters.

When Li Chen, along with Catherine, saw the generals of the Palace of the Nether King, smiles appeared on everyone’s faces.

"Sister Catherine, welcome back!" Ye Tu was the first to walk over, opening his arms towards Catherine to give her a hug.

"Smack!" However, Catherine extended her palm and pushed Ye Tu’s hands aside, "Little Ye, after so long, you still think about taking liberties with your sister the moment you see her?"

Ye Tu rubbed his head awkwardly, while the surrounding generals burst into laughter.

At that moment, Catherine took the initiative to step forward and gave Ye Tu a big hug.

She then spoke with each person face to face for a bit.

"Alright, now that I’ve brought Catherine back, I can rest easy. With her here, we can at least ensure the Palace of the Nether King’s basic stability." Li Chen grinned and said, "I think, compared to me, you probably trust her a bit more, right?"

At that moment, the Nether Princess actually nodded solemnly, "That’s really the case!"

"Then I, as the leader, am not doing a very good job," Li Chen said with a wry smile.

Everyone laughed once more.

"Alright, let’s postpone the reunion talk for later. For now, everyone should start their training. Since Wangyang got a bit hurt this time, let’s not disturb him," Li Chen said.

After leaving the Nether Army behind, Li Chen actually drove straight towards the library first thing.

He was looking for something!
