After finishing the refinement of the bodies, Xu Chen let out a breath of relief.

Damn, it took almost a full half year to refine.

He didn't cultivate at all during that half year.

But it was fine—completing the original plot's mission was more important.

Maybe this world could collapse and he wouldn't need to complete it.

But that was only a maybe; he still felt that following the rules properly couldn't possibly be wrong.

So any plot he could walk through, he had to walk through—it put his mind at ease.

After all, he was almost a Great Emperor; if something could put his mind at ease, then so be it.

Xu Chen said, "Qingyun, Xuanshui, check your own physical bodies—are there any problems?"

The two women nodded and said, "No problems, and the assets are quite generous."

After saying that, the two women straightened up slightly, as if saying to Xi Wangmu Benti: look, how about it?

Xi Wangmu Benti's face instantly darkened.

Despicable!

If not for the Emperor Grade Essence Blood she provided, how could you have such fine bodies?

Two little vixens, too detestable.

Thinking this, Xi Wangmu Benti looked at Xu Chen, immensely wronged, and said coquettishly, "Xu Lang, look at them, they're bullying me, I'm so wronged, boohoo.

If you don't comfort me, I don't want to live anymore, boohoo." Xu Chen: "……"

This girl hadn't learned anything else.

But when it came to acting coquettish and pouting, she'd truly learned the essence from Xiwangmu Fenshen.

But speaking of which, clearly one body and one avatar.

How come the assets aren't the same?

Apart from that, almost everything else was identical.

This body feeling wronged wasn't entirely without reason.

Xu Chen looked helplessly at the Nangong sisters and said, "Alright, you two keep a low profile, day after day."

If he'd known about all this trouble, he wouldn't have helped them.

And now he still had to manage it—despicable.

Nangong Qingyun and Nangong Xuanshui, upon hearing this, said shyly, "Alright then, if you say keep a low profile, we'll keep a low profile.

It's not like we have incomparably generous assets, just first place among the female leads, that's all.

Sigh, nothing to be proud of, right?" Xu Chen: "……"

Xi Wangmu Benti: "……"

She snorted coldly and said, "When you two were refining your bodies, you used this Emperor's Emperor Grade Essence Blood."

The two women pouted: "So what?"

Xi Wangmu Benti narrowed her eyes slightly and said, "If I wanted to cause trouble, the consequences would be very serious."

The two women's expressions shifted slightly—come to think of it, that was indeed true.

Xu Chen also nodded and said, "That's the idea, so I'm telling you to keep a low profile."

The two women said pitifully, "Xu Lang, she's bullying us, boohoo."

Xu Chen's face was full of egg-aching helplessness.

See that?

This is the downside of having too many women around.

Luckily not a single one of them was his—after all, nothing had ever happened between them.

But even so, these women still clung to him, impossible to drive away.

It made his scalp tingle—truly annoying.

Xu Chen said speechlessly, "Keep a low profile."

He couldn't lay a hand on the female leads either.

So he still indulged them to some extent.

He didn't know what was going on either.

Lately he felt these girls seemed to cling to him even tighter.

As if they absolutely had to make him say how much he loved them.

Could it be that these girls had discussed something while he was cultivating in the Immortal Palace?

So Xu Chen immediately asked Zhao Qingyun through the mask: "Half a year ago, what did you women talk about?"

Zhao Qingyun pouted angrily: "Yuck, what women? I'm still a maiden."

Xu Chen: "……"

Xu Chen said through gritted teeth: "Fine, you maidens and women—did you discuss something?"

Zhao Qingyun said in a wistful tone: "Just the usual little quarrels, nothing special, I was always the one in charge."

Only when chatting through the mask could she talk a little more with Xu Chen.

So this time, she wanted to act coquettish.

Xu Chen was completely numb.

Zhao Qingyun used to never act coquettish either.

Now that she's started, it's just absurd.

Those women must have said something, probably reached some kind of agreement.

He said with a pained look, "You've worked hard."

Zhao Qingyun really had worked quite hard, as the Nine Heavens Changing Heavenly Monarch.

He would order her around at every turn, and she never complained.

Truly never complained.

This was the first time she'd acted coquettishly in front of him.

Honestly, he was quite touched.

Too bad she was the female lead.

He didn't know whether getting involved with the female lead would cause trouble, so he'd never dared to.

Thinking it over, he shook his head — why bother with all this nonsense.

Touched was touched.

But this was ultimately a virtual world after all.

Reality should be the ultimate pursuit.

With that thought, Xu Chen continued, "All these years, the one who's helped me the most is you." Hearing this, Zhao Qingyun's eyes reddened slightly as she said, "Mm, it's what I should do. I'm the Changing Heavenly Monarch."

Xu Chen shook his head and said, "It's more than just the Changing Heavenly Monarch. You've been far too good to me. I've seen it all, and I'm very moved."

Hearing this, tears immediately welled up in Zhao Qingyun's eyes.

Xu Chen understood this — then everything she had done was worth it.

After all, in her previous life, she had helped Xu Chen, and also helped Ye Xuan.

But because of that dog author, most of the time she ended up helping Ye Xuan.

She had no choice, but felt guilty about it.

In this life, she was determined to help Xu Chen.

Zhao Qingyun sniffled and said, "Then why do you never pay attention to me usually?" As she spoke, she began to act cute, entering female lead mode. Xu Chen: "……"

Damn, really can't have too much interaction with the female lead.

The moment they interact, they start getting emotional and sentimental.

He said with a toothache expression, "Too many things going on, busy with cultivation, and most importantly, too many women around — annoying."

Hearing this, Zhao Qingyun said softly, "I understand." She didn't ask further — Xu Chen still preferred the way she used to be.

Anyway, however Xu Chen liked it, that's how she'd be.

After all, the way things were before wasn't that bad either.
