Capítulo 1060: Chapter 1057: Ye Chuxue’s Jealousy

Upon hearing Ye Chuxue’s inquiry, all attention instantly shifted to Ximen Qingxue.

Ximen Qingxue was terribly embarrassed, especially when she saw that Li Chen’s parents were looking at her, her heart nearly jumped out of her chest.

Li Chen, in a poised manner, pointed to Ximen Qingxue and introduced, “This is Ximen Qingxue, the treasure of the Dragon Ascending Valley Master!”

Ximen Qingxue smiled gently, stepped forward, and gracefully greeted them.

“Hello, Uncle! Hello, Aunt!”

Zixuan took an instant liking to Ximen Qingxue and went forward to hold her small hand, engaging in some polite conversation.

Ye Chuxue, on the other hand, sidled up to Li Chen and rolled her eyes exaggeratedly, lowering her voice, and said jealously, “You rascal, off pestering other girls again?”

Knowing he was in the wrong, Li Chen chuckled silly.

“Xue’er, are you jealous?”

“Hmph, like I’d be jealous over you!”

Ye Chuxue huffed proudly and turned away.

But when her gaze fell upon Ximen Qingxue again, a complex ripple appeared in her eyes that were as clear as water.

For some reason, she felt an uncomfortable sensation in her heart.

Seemingly understanding Ye Chuxue’s thoughts, Li Chen stepped forward and tugged at her small hand.

However, at first, Ye Chuxue shook him off.

“You scoundrel, don’t touch me. I don’t want to talk to you for now!”

Li Chen pouted and tugged at Ye Chuxue’s small hand again.

This time, he exerted a bit more force. Ye Chuxue shook it once but did not shake him off and had to let him hold it.

Ye Chuxue’s eyes turned slightly red.

This had been a habit of Li Chen’s since childhood!

Every time she was unhappy, Li Chen would hold her hand. Without saying a word, he would just hold it tightly.

At this moment, a cruiser with a red flag sped toward them.

Li Jinliang, Li Lingtian, Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird, and others were all aboard.

Upon seeing Li Chen, they all came forward to pay their respects.

Li Chen, with a courteous smile, returned the greetings one by one.

…

Li Chen returned triumphantly as a king.

He decisively killed the Great General Lobster Monster, repelled the White Whale Demon and the Octopus Bobodong, these two Demon Kings.

Particularly by using the East Sea as a pot, the sun as fuel, and a million sea monsters as ingredients, he cooked a world-shocking seafood hot pot, leaving everyone worldwide in awe.

This also served as a morale booster for humanity, who had lost the will to fight against the powerful sea monsters.

After this battle, many people began to regard Li Chen as a savior and became his devout followers.

However, where there is joy, there is also worry.

And the most worried parties weren’t the defeated Sea Clan but their masterminds, the Ancient Maya!

Previously, Li Chen only caused them some unease and did not affect the grand plans of their Ancient Maya.

But now Li Chen had clearly instilled fear in them!

Fear from the depths of their hearts!

In just three or four years, he had grown to such a terrifying level.

If given another three or four years, to what terrifying level would he grow?

Thankfully, now it was only three or four years until the main fleet’s arrival on Earth.

With just a wait of another three or four years, by then this blue planet will become the colony of their Ancient Maya.

Those called humans, “insects,” would become their slaves, subjected to arbitrary humiliation and servitude.

Night, few stars in the moonlight!

Li Chen stood at the top of Heavenly Pool Mountain, hands clasped behind his back, gazing at the heavens.

Stars shifted, Pole Star dimmed!

Although he couldn’t yet see the Ancient Maya’s interstellar warships from light years away, he could truly feel the suffocating urgency they brought.

Time was short for him!

The immediate priority was to revive the Dragon Spiritual Vein.

A Dragon Spiritual Vein might not be enough to revive the spiritual power of the entire Earth, but it could dramatically increase the spiritual power within a ten-thousand-mile radius centered on Heavenly Pool Mountain by dozens of times.

In the key area where Heavenly Pool Mountain sat, the spiritual power could increase by hundreds or even thousands of times.

In this way, within just three to five years, thousands upon thousands of Foundation Establishment cultivators and hundreds of Golden Core cultivators could be nurtured. If lucky, even a few Nascent Soul Great Powers could emerge.

By then, the combat power of the Human Clan would rise several levels.

Besides this, time should be hastened to locate the Nine Yu Emperor Treasures.

Nine cauldrons unify to open the Path to Ascension.

This is the true ultimate weapon against the Maya interstellar warships!

According to the intelligence currently in Li Chen’s possession, the scientific and technological level of the Ancient Maya was at least four or five thousand years ahead of humans.

It’s worth noting that over two thousand years ago, during the time of the First Emperor, their vanguard fleet had already developed high-explosive weapons capable of destroying Nascent Soul Great Powers.

Now, after another two thousand years, the Ancient Maya’s Mother Star might have already developed cutting-edge weapons targeting Divinity Transformation Experts.

A Divinity Transformation Expert is already a terrifying existence that transcends the Heaven and Earth Laws of this “Yu” in the universe, capable of destroying an entire planet!

However, looking at the Ancient Maya’s meticulous plans, it’s clear they aren’t aiming to crudely destroy Earth but intend to establish a colony here.

“Chen, you haven’t slept yet?”

At this moment, a clear and melodious voice came from behind.

Then, a girl with a face like a peach blossom, gracefully swaying her skirt, walked over with lotus steps.

Bathed in moonlight, she glowed, like a fairy descending to the mortal world from the Nine Heavens.

Who else could it be but Ye Chuxue?

Li Chen smiled slightly and said, “Thinking of you keeps me tossing and turning, unable to sleep!”

Ye Chuxue rolled her eyes dramatically and scolded, “Tch, you’re just full of sweet talk. That’s how you tricked Ximen Qingxue, isn’t it?”

Li Chen could only purse his lips, seeing that this young lady’s jealousy was still quite strong!

Moreover, with strong survival instincts, he felt there was a trap in those words—whether he answered yes or no, neither was the right choice.

Li Chen’s eyes wandered, settling on Ye Chuxue’s skirt.

It was a white dress, with a slender waist tied with a bow. Her silky hair cascaded over her shoulders, and her lively, bright eyes seemed clearer than water, even brighter than the stars.

In truth, he loved seeing Ye Chuxue in this outfit the most, exuding an ethereal aura like a fairy untouched by mortal affairs.

“What are you looking at?”

Seeing Li Chen not answering her question and instead staring at her silly, Ye Chuxue pouted, feigning dissatisfaction.

Li Chen said, affectionately, “Looking at you, Xue’er. You’re so beautiful, one can never tire of it!”

Hearing Li Chen’s praise, Ye Chuxue blushed, like a budding flower in spring, full of endless allure.

“Hmph, you’re just trying to make me happy. I don’t want…”

Ye Chuxue barely finished her sentence when Li Chen suddenly moved forward, pressing his lips against hers, sweet like a cherry…
