Chapter 500: Chapter 497 Heavenly Net Ghost Island! [Fourth Update]
Seeing the newcomer, Li Chen slightly furrowed his brows.
"Li Wan’er, why did you come here?"
Li Wan’er looked around left and right and said, "This is my home, why can’t I come here?"
"Oh, then I’m leaving!"
Having said that, Li Chen turned around to leave.
Li Wan’er saw Li Chen was about to leave and quickly trotted over.
"Aren’t you also from the Li Family, this is also your home, why are you leaving?"
Li Chen thought for a moment, then said, "Not yet!"
Li Wan’er pouted and asked, "How old are you?"
Li Chen answered, "Twenty, why?"
"Perfect, I’m one year older than you, you should call me sister!"
After saying that, Li Wan’er looked at Li Chen with a face full of expectation, signaling him to call her sister.
However, Li Chen just calmly replied two words: "Childish!"
Li Wan’er felt embarrassed, her gaze shifting as she said, "There are no loquat trees of yours in this loquat forest, wouldn’t you like to plant one?"
"Let’s talk about that later, I have things to do, I’m leaving now!"
Having said that, Li Chen no longer paid attention to Li Wan’er and turned to walk towards the front gate.
Li Wan’er saw Li Chen was so dismissive, got irritated and grit her teeth, furiously stomping her foot.
Just then, Li Lingtian came from behind.
With a coquettish tone, Li Wan’er complained, "Dad, look at him, putting on airs, so conceited!"
Li Lingtian sighed lightly and said, "Ah, let him be!"
Li Wan’er blinked her eyes curiously and asked, "Dad, is Li Chen really uncle’s son, then where is uncle?"
"Wan’er, it’s a long story, you will understand later!"
After speaking, without waiting for Li Wan’er to ask further, Li Lingtian swiftly changed the subject. "Right, where is Yunjie? Go and keep an eye on him, don’t let him cause more trouble!"
...
Li Chen reached the front gate, where the limping Xing Zhong was instructing a dozen brothers, repairing the gate.
Feeling irritated, he saw the gate blocking the way, without a word, directly threw a Bomb Fist, fiercely blasting it.
"Crack!"
The half-repaired gate collapsed on the spot. This time, it was completely ruined.
"What is this crap, can’t you not block the way? Illegal structure, should be demolished!"
Dropping these words, he strode away.
Xing Zhong and several guards, looking at the ruined gate, were shocked and dumbfounded.
How much grudge or resentment does this gentleman have with this gate to strike mercilessly twice in one day?
Besides, this brass gate has been standing at the entrance of Li Family for half a century, how did it become an illegal construction?
Just after Li Chen left the Li Family, his phone suddenly rang.
The caller ID showed Mei Ruohua!
"Young master, I just received information. Near the waters of the Philippines, there are thousand-year-old spiritual medicine, Heavenly Spirit Grass has appeared, do you want to go take a look?"
Hearing this news, Li Chen was shocked. He was very eager to enhance his strength and naturally would not miss this opportunity.
"Good, I’m heading over now!"
Meanwhile:
Above the North Atlantic, a lonely island was aimlessly drifting in the vast ocean.
If Li Chen were here, he would immediately recognize that the island was surrounded by a strong barrier restriction, isolating it from the outside world, forming its own realm.
This is the Heavenly Net Headquarters: Ghost Island
From the surface, Ghost Island does not seem large, but this is just the tip of the iceberg. 95% of it is hidden beneath the deep sea.
The scenery inside is even more astonishing.
On the island, there are astronomical observation instruments more advanced than those in Europe, America, and Russia.
There are various types of warships, destroyers, and corresponding fleets of fighters, and even two large aircraft carriers.
In addition to that, there’s a research laboratory for nuclear magnetic cannons, genetic biochemical weapons, magnetic storm armors, even nuclear weapons are involved here. And some of their core technologies are so advanced that not even a major global power like the United States can catch up.
Aside from the main island, Ghost Island also has twelve subsidiary islands, forming a pattern like stars surrounding the moon.
These twelve islands symbolize the twelve branches of Heavenly Net, each handling tasks like assassination, intelligence, accumulation of wealth, treasure hunting, order taking, support, logistics, punishment, etc. They manage three hundred sixty subsidiaries spread across the four oceans and seven continents, with a total staff exceeding one million.
If the true nature of Ghost Island were exposed, it would likely unsettle the top nations of the world such as the United States, Great Britain, Huaxia, Russia, France, and Deutschland.
Deep within Ghost Island lies a treasury filled with gold, diamonds, and various rare treasures.
However, it’s more apt to call it a prison rather than a treasury.
Because, regardless of how glittering the gold, how dazzling the diamonds, or how rare the treasures, they are all useless in this isolated world.
There’s no monetary system here, not even the most primitive barter system; they operate on a quota supply system.
Furthermore, most people staying here have been completely brainwashed; from sunrise to sunset, they work relentlessly like oxen and horses, never questioning or expecting any return. They would not hesitate even if asked to die immediately.
However, there are two exceptions.
They are Li Chen’s parents, Li Lingyun and Zixuan!
Moreover, they are the ones imprisoned in this treasury.
Zixuan is tall and stunningly beautiful, her charm is breathtaking. Even compared with Ye Chuxue and Lian Hongshang, she is not inferior.
At this moment, she is nestled in Li Lingyun’s arms, idly playing with a diamond larger than a pigeon’s egg.
"Brother Yun, how is Chenn’er now? I miss him so much!"
Li Lingyun has a dashing appearance with starry eyes and fair skin, bearing a strong resemblance to Li Chen. However, his look carries a bit more of the vicissitudes of life.
Their current life is the secluded world they had dreamt of two decades ago.
The only thing they cannot let go of is their son, Li Chen, who is outside.
Li Lingyun tightly hugged his wife, gently pecking her fair forehead.
"Zixuan, rest assured, Chenn’er will be alright!"
At that moment, a tall figure walked in from the outside.
"My Great Saintess, I hope I’m not interrupting anything?"
Seeing the newcomer, Zixuan’s eyebrows furrowed, and she sharply questioned with wide eyes, "Wuxie, what are you doing here?"
Wuxie, a mid-stage practitioner in the God Realm. He heads the assassination division in Heavenly Net and is the leader of the July branch.
He smiled serenely at Zixuan, saying, "Li Lingyun, Zixuan, congratulations on having such a wonderful son!"
Li Lingyun and Zixuan were stunned to hear this comment.
"Wuxie, what do you mean by that?"
Wuxie smiled coldly and said, "I have a piece of good news and a piece of bad news. Which one would you like to hear first?"
Zixuan responded, "The good news, please."
Wuxie smiled faintly and shared, "Your son, Li Chen, is still alive, and he is doing quite well!"
Hearing that her son Li Chen was alive, Zixuan’s already bright eyes sparkled even more.
She eagerly pressed on, "Wuxie, are you telling the truth?"
Wuxie smiled coldly and expressed, "My Great Saintess, do you think I would come all this way to joke with you?"
After receiving Wuxie’s affirmation, Zixuan wept with joy.
"Brother Yun, did you hear that? Chenn’er is still alive, he’s still alive!"
Comparatively, Li Lingyun appeared much calmer. He stared intently at Wuxie and asked, "What about the bad news?"
Wuxie did not answer but instead pulled out a Mystic Iron Token inscribed in Seal Script from his sleeve.
"Yama Order?"
Both Li Lingyun and Zixuan recognized the name of the token and exclaimed.
Wuxie nodded and said grimly, "Not long ago, Overseas Hongmen spent thirty billion US Dollars to obtain this Yama Order. The target they wish to eliminate is your beloved son, Li Chen!"
After saying this, he turned to Li Lingyun, adding, "Li Lingyun, considering that we’ve worked together before, let me share another piece of good news. Around last June, your precious son defeated your useless big brother, Li Lingtian, at the Yan Mountain Peak and took the Dragon Abyss Sword!"
"What did you say?"
Hearing that Li Chen had actually defeated Li Lingtian, both Li Lingyun and Zixuan were profoundly shocked.
Li Lingtian’s talent, although not as high as theirs, was still one in ten thousand. He became a warrior of the Demigod Realm ten years ago. Even if he hasn’t advanced to the God Realm, he must at least be at the Quasi-God Realm. How could he lose to their son, who’s barely twenty years old?
Wuxie smirked coldly, saying, "How does it feel, surprising, isn’t it?"
"Li Lingyun, if you let your son keep growing, his accomplishments will definitely not be inferior to yours. He might even surpass the Holy Daughter someday. Unfortunately, he’s about to fall soon, what a pity, such a tragedy!"
