My gorgeous wife-Chapter 1724 - 1695: The Shang of the Qilin Tribe

Li Chen’s expression was somewhat unsightly.

After hearing about the Four Great Realms mentioned by the Supreme Treasure, he had a vague sense that something was amiss.

The Heaven Realm is vast, astonishingly vast.

But overall, he still felt... there seemed to be too few strong warriors.

Such a large place, could there really be so few Celestial Kings?

When Li Chen was on the Tian Shang Star Continent, though he saw quite a few Celestial Kings, there were over a hundred just at the Hundred Clans Battlefield. But, we must remember, that’s with all the Celestial Kings from all the races of the Tian Shang Star Continent gathered together; scattered, each race really only had one or two.

And the entire Tian Shang Star Continent is roughly the size of a galaxy!

Such a vast territory, could there really be so few Celestial Kings?

And on the Earth Prison Star Continent, Celestial Kings were even rarer; Li Chen hadn’t even heard of them, perhaps because his cultivation was too low at the time or because he met too few people.

But Li Chen still didn’t believe, no matter how barren the Earth Prison Star Continent is, there can’t even be a few Celestial Kings emerging?

Upon reaching this grade, from some secrets, Li Chen gradually understood that these Celestial Kings might all have their own missions.

Just like the Qilin Clan youth before him.

Li Chen fed him a few Healing Medicines, hoping to wait until he was awake to question him properly.

At that moment, a whistling sound arose.

The few people present were simultaneously startled, realizing that an elegant-looking woman had, at some point, appeared beside them.

"What’s the matter?" As the woman appeared, she opened her mouth to ask directly without a word of nonsense, not even identifying herself.

"Who are you?" Yue Gouchen’s gaze was wary.

"I am... huh? Qilin Clan?! It’s over, it’s over, it seems to be true, that Old Ghost’s seal broke!"

Without speaking further to Li Chen and the others, the woman vanished with a flicker, reappearing in front of the Underground Cave.

Staring at the completely opened cave before her, now only a huge black hole left, Heaven Swallowing Roar looked a bit dazed: "This time, something really big happened!"

"Impossible! In the sealed state of that Old Ghost, it was absolutely impossible for him to break open the Great Formation himself. Someone must have helped him, someone must have acted, damn it! Damn! Who in the world?!!" Zhen Xi screamed upwards, the sound quickly transforming into a beast’s roar, making the surrounding part of Remnant Cloud Forest shiver slightly under the roar, causing Li Chen and others to pale.

Yet another top-level powerhouse!

The Qilin Clan youth also seemed disturbed by the roar, waking up and feeling the medicine within his body gradually dissolve, casting a faintly grateful glance at Li Chen nearby.

"You’re awake?!"

As the Qilin Clan youth awoke, Zhen Xi reappeared.

But at this moment, Zhen Xi appeared somewhat furious, wanting to vent on the Qilin Clan youth but after contemplating, also realized it wasn’t the Qilin Clan’s fault.

"Heaven Swallowing Roar?" Seeing Zhen Xi, the Qilin Clan youth evidently paused.

"That’s right!" Zhen Xi said angrily, "What on earth are you doing? Haven’t you always been well-guarding the Demon Realm Passage? Why has something suddenly gone wrong, and you..."

Saying this, Zhen Xi glanced at the black patterns on the Qilin Clan youth’s face, her expression changed slightly.

Upon hearing Zhen Xi’s words, the Qilin Clan youth’s face showed a hint of melancholy: "The Qilin Clan no longer exists."

"You..."

This sentence made Zhen Xi swallow the mocking words she was about to say.

The Qilin Clan, no longer exists?

"Hold on!" At this moment, Li Chen, who had been listening confusedly, couldn’t help interrupting: "Can someone explain, what exactly happened?"

"Oh, it’s you." Zhen Xi scrutinized Li Chen: "Pretty good kid, back when you weren’t even at the Mid-Heaven Realm, now in such a short time, you’re already a Fourth Order Celestial King."

"You are..." Li Chen’s expression was peculiar, suddenly recalling the Qilin Clan youth’s address for Zhen Xi!

Heaven Swallowing Roar!

"You were the Heaven Swallowing Roar from the Enchanted World back then?" Li Chen’s face was astonished.

"You guess... forget it!" Zhen Xi was about to jest with Li Chen, but suddenly remembered the current situation, instantly unable to laugh.

Upon hearing the Qilin Clan youth recount the status of the passage again, Zhen Xi’s expression turned somewhat grim.

"According to you, they should merely be a vanguard sent to their death, but why couldn’t the Qilin Clan even handle the vanguard?" Zhen Xi puzzled.

The Qilin Clan youth bitterly smiled: "Long ago, the Demon Realm Gate began seeping black mist, which is impossible to resist. Many of us quickly became infected by that mist; once completely eroded, one becomes frenzied, bloodthirsty, unrecognizable."

"Since the appearance of the black mist, in the following years, most of my clan spent every day depleting their True Yuan battling the mist eroding their bodies. Over these years, our strength is now barely a fraction. And previously, most couldn’t even flee when the barrier broke, let alone resist."

A trace of bleakness appeared on the youth’s face: "I am probably the last and only one able to escape from my clan; those clansmen are likely..."

He did not continue, but Li Chen and the others saw deathly stillness on his face.

It wasn’t sorrow, but a complete deathly stillness beyond sorrow; Li Chen saw no desire for survival in his eyes.

Perhaps he escaped, yet from a certain perspective, he too died in battle with his clansmen.

Yue Gouchen, after contacting for a while, began reaching out to other people with the Jade Slip.

At this moment, he didn’t even care much for Li Chen close by; if what the Qilin Clan youth said was true, then not to mention anything else, a major event likely involved the entire Earth Prison Star Continent.

And as the Star Lord here, he’s definitely stuck.

"Damn it! Where’s Ling Canghai?" Yue Gouchen’s face quickly turned somber.

Despite Remnant Cloud Forest being in Nanxiang Prefecture’s scope, Ling Canghai was certainly a key person he wanted to contact. But to his anger, in this situation, he couldn’t reach Ling Canghai at all.

"Help me contact others in Formless City, ask them to relay a message to all major cities in Nanxiang Prefecture!" Yue Gouchen resignedly could only have his subordinates help reach out to others in Formless City.

As for those ordinary city subordinates, he certainly hadn’t recorded them in his Message Jade Slip.

After all, as the Star Lord of the Star Continent, if anyone can talk to him, what authority does he have as Star Lord?

Looking deeper into Remnant Cloud Forest, Yue Gouchen’s expression also turned increasingly grim.
