Chapter 488: So this is the treasure you were talking about? (Please subscribe)
It was not the first concubine who asked Li Chen about this matter.
Previously, Lady Youlan, Wu Nanzhi, and Jiang Rong had all asked.
Li Chen would explain patiently because he knew that once these concubines asked such questions, it proved that they were wholeheartedly devoted to him, fearing that he would delay state affairs.
In other words, Immortal Sister Yunya had been conquered by Li Chen from the inside out.
Walking to a place, Immortal Sister Yunya pointed to the sparkling sea in the distance: "Young Master Li, look quickly, that is the South Sea."
Li Chen was walking to a high slope, looking out, the blue sea water connected with the sky, and several sailboats dotted it like white gulls.
Near the shore, fishing boats shuttled back and forth, and the fishing nets dried on the masts shone with silver light in the sun.
The sea clan invasion had been repelled, and now only some areas were still guarded by the sea clan.
The cultivators of the May Tian Ce Dynasty were no longer satisfied with brushing these "fixed-point" sea clans, and most had entered the deep sea to explore.
It could be said that the offensive and defensive positions had changed.
Immortal Sister Yunya was about to exclaim, when she heard the sound of breaking through the air behind her.
A purple stream of light crossed the sky and landed steadily in front of Li Chen.
Xuan Ji wore a tight outfit, and the tips of her hair still carried sword energy that hadn't dissipated, kneeling on one knee: "Your Majesty."
Li Chen helped her up and asked: "Is your business finished?"
When Xuan Ji looked up, there seemed to be stars twinkling in her eyes: "Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty; my private affairs have been handled, and I can serve Your Majesty with peace of mind from now on."
In fact, Xuan Ji's so-called private affairs were just returning to her own cave to organize the things she needed, and then writing a letter to Jun Zhantian and his son.
While writing, she was still thinking: what if Jun Wuhui worried about her whereabouts?
But thinking of this, Xuan Ji herself laughed.
She had long realized that she was just a chess piece of Jun Wuhui, and Jun Wuhui's mind was full of becoming an immortal; how could he care about her?
I'm afraid that when she died, Jun Wuhui wouldn't have much fluctuation.
Li Chen rubbed her hair top casually: "It's good to have you."
These simple four words made Xuan Ji tremble all over, her eye sockets instantly turning red.
At this moment, she wished she could cut out her full loyalty to show His Majesty, and could only bury her head lower, for fear of being seen crying.
This was the difference between Li Chen and Jun Wuhui.
Xuan Ji truly felt that she was needed.
That night, the three stayed in a coastal town.
Xuan Ji seemed to want to make up for the loss of separation for many days, from bathing and changing clothes to spreading the bed and smoking incense, doing everything herself.
When Li Chen leaned against the bathtub and closed his eyes to rest, she was actually relieving pressure for Li Chen in the water.
This kind of life-risking service made Immortal Sister Yunya stare dumbfounded, thinking sourly: some people want to compare us to the Emperor...
No, I have to work harder tonight; I can't let her be exclusively favored by His Majesty!
Five days later, the largest city on the South Sea coast, Linyuan City, was already in sight.
This majestic city was built against the mountain and by the sea, and the twelve-zhang-high city wall was built with deep-sea black iron stone, emitting a blue-black luster in the sun.
It is said that the two characters "Lin Yuan" on the city gate tower were carved three hundred years ago by an Immortal Sword Master using sword Qi, and even today, a chilling sword intent still flows between them.
Before entering the city, one could already feel the rich spiritual energy in the air; obviously, the number of cultivators in the city was astonishing.
"Sure enough, it lives up to its reputation." Li Chen stood on the official road in front of the city gate, looking at the endless stream of people.
There were cultivators carrying sword boxes, merchants leading exotic beasts, and even many merchants from other countries could be seen.
The sixteen guards at the city gate were powerful and were using the Spirit-Identifying Mirror to check those entering the city.
After entering the city, it was even more dazzling.
The main street was twenty zhang wide, and the ground was paved with star sand stone that could automatically remove dust.
The buildings on both sides were at least five stories high, and the bronze wind chimes hanging on the flying eaves formed their own rhythm with the fluctuation of spiritual energy.
The most eye-catching thing was the ten-person-high puppet guards standing every hundred zhang; it is said that the combat power of each one was at the peak of the Heavenly Abyss Realm. ===== CHAPTER 489 =====
