Chapter 1896: Chapter 1916: I am Like an Ugly Duckling_1

The discussion was over, and everyone had decided on their next actions.

Everything in the high-ranked Immortal Realm was illusory and unreliable. They couldn’t possibly go off to the High-ranked Immortal Realm to submit to the major forces just because of Xuanyuan Feiying, could they?

Wouldn’t they have to fight through first?

Yao Xiong personally recruited the powerhouses of the various Great Sects, forming a potent hunting team to relentlessly pursue and attack the Heavenly Dao Alliance members, not giving them a breather.

The pursuit wasn’t necessarily about killing Xuanyuan Feiying, but rather about wiping out all the sects that followed the Heavenly Dao Alliance.

Kill the chicken to scare the monkey!

They had to let all the Immortal Realm forces see the miserable outcome of those that followed the Heavenly Dao Alliance against the Immortal Palace. That way, when their turn came to make a choice, they would think it over meticulously.

Once the hunting operation was over, Yao Xiong would enter Closed Door Cultivation to advance beyond Daluo.

Lin Chen only had Golden Immortal strength, so naturally, he wasn’t necessary in the hunting mission.

He would accompany Purple Cloud Immortal Lord to the Heavenly Demon Continent to find the Water Scale Dragon Ape. If they could gather all eight main ingredients, they would be able to refine the Nine-Turn Da Luo Pill, and the Purple Cloud Immortal Lord could then attempt to push above Daluo.

Moreover, he wasn’t just helping the Purple Cloud Immortal Lord to find the ingredients. Any excess of these materials could also be used by him in the future, couldn’t they?

"I will heal for ten days and set off after ten days."

Purple Cloud Immortal Lord dropped the statement and returned to his room, closing the door behind him.

Lin Chen led Gu Yuexi back to his room.

The reunited couple shared a sleepless night of passion.

Gu Yuexi lay on Lin Chen’s chest, drawing circles on it with her fingers: "Brother, the women around you are getting more and more outstanding. You won’t abandon me in the future, right?"

Lin Chen reached out and gently pinched her soft cheek: "What nonsense are you talking about? I won’t abandon any of you!"

Gu Yuexi pouted: "At first, I thought I was quite good. But after going to more places and meeting more people, I found that many of them were much better than me. In comparison, I feel like an ugly duckling..."

Lin Chen hugged Gu Yuexi and slapped her fair and soft buttocks: "Always overthinking things, you deserve a smack!"

Gu Yuexi, however, cheered up from being smacked: "As long as you don’t dislike me, that’s enough."

Lin Chen laughed: "You have an innate wood spirit body, which is considered an extremely outstanding spiritual root in the entire Immortal Realm. You’ve only been cultivating for a few years, and you’ve already reached the Late Golden Immortal stage. If you show off about this, you’ll scare people. And you call yourself an ugly duckling. Isn’t that making others appear as toads?"

Gu Yuexi chuckled with her mouth closed: "Purple Cloud Immortal Lord is not only beautiful but also domineering, and she’s an Immortal Monarch. Sister Xuan Ji is gentle and gorgeous, peerless in beauty, and she’s the Lord’s Daughter. No matter how talented I am, I can’t compare to them."

Lin Chen shook his head: "You are you, one of a kind. You don’t need to compare. You weren’t like this before. Why have you become so capable now but lack confidence?"

Gu Yuexi pouted: "You’ve carved out your own path of cultivation, step by step, and I’ve always been following in your footsteps under the protection of our sect. Whenever I think I can fight alongside you, the enemies we face leave me helpless. I’ve been trying hard to catch up with your pace, afraid of being left behind, but I can’t help you at all."

Lin Che lowered his head, lifted Gu Yuexi’s chin with his hand, and looked into her eyes. He spoke seriously: "You all stay safe and accompany me on this journey. That’s what I need the most. Keep up your cultivation, and in the future, we will go to the High-ranked Immortal Realm together."

"When we all become Daluo powerhouses, we won’t join different sects anymore and separate from each other for a long time like we do now. We will create our own Cave Mansion and build a home that belongs to us. Then we can always be together."

"Cultivate together, travel together, adventure, ah, by then we should consider having children..."

Listening to Lin Chen’s words, Gu Yuexi’s eyes sparkled with anticipation.

"Really? Once we reach Daluo and above, we will no longer be separated?"

Lin Chen smiled: "Yes, if we don’t want to be in the limelight, we can settle in a Cave Mansion, set up Array Formations, and live our own simple life. If we want to be lively, we can also create a power, become sect masters, and have fun. That sounds pretty interesting."

Gu Yuexi’s eyes filled with expectations: "That’s right, it sounds very interesting. By then, we will be the bosses ourselves. We won’t have to consider other people’s opinions. We can live whatever way we want!"

Lin Chen encouraged: "Then work hard on your cultivation and strive to become a Daluo powerhouse soon. Later on, I can lean on you!"
