Chapter 1813 - 1810: Devouring the Golden Crow! (Part 2)
In this way, under the control of Li Chen, the Purple-footed Golden Crow and the Red-footed Golden Crow fused into one.
Among them, the Purple-footed Golden Crow controlled the core, occupying the main position.
Although the Divine Sense of the Red-footed Golden Crow was somewhat retained, it had already been confined by Li Chen to a designated area, making it impossible for him to stir up trouble again.
As for the sun’s energy, most of it was devoured by the Meteorite Heart within Li Chen’s Dantian.
Seizing this opportunity, Li Chen also managed to break through to the peak of the Tribulation Crossing Third Level.
If he were to have a duel with the Pure Yang Immortal Monarch now,
he could easily defeat the opponent within three rounds, merely using conventional methods.
And not like before, needing to use his trump techniques.
Just as Li Chen finished devouring the Solar System, he suddenly sensed a disturbance two light-years away from this place, in the region of the Oort Nebula.
As the thought formed in his mind, he saw a powerful figure crossing myriad star rivers, sailing over here.
"Wushan Divine Woman?"
Seeing this familiar figure, Li Chen’s heart suddenly trembled.
The Wushan Divine Woman’s cultivation had already reached the Tribulation Crossing Seventh Level, a level of the Immortal Venerate Realm.
And he himself was merely at the Tribulation Crossing Third Level.
Should the two engage in combat, his chances of victory would not exceed ten percent.
Seeing Li Chen, the Wushan Divine Woman was also very shocked.
"Emperor Donghua? So you’re really still alive..."
Upon seeing the Wushan Divine Woman, the figure of Beiming Xue immediately surfaced in Li Chen’s mind.
"Did she send you?"
The Wushan Divine Woman did not hide this fact.
"Yes, it’s because Mistress asked me to come and see!"
A bitter smile appeared at the corner of Li Chen’s mouth as he said coldly, "It seems she’s still quite concerned about me!"
The Wushan Divine Woman knew that there was resentment in Li Chen’s heart towards Beiming Xue.
"Li Chen, back then Mistress was also forced by circumstances, you shouldn’t..."
Before the Wushan Divine Woman could finish speaking, Li Chen interrupted angrily.
"Enough, I don’t want to hear this!"
Li Chen could forgive any enemy, but could not forgive Beiming Xue.
The deeper the love he had back then, the deeper the hatred now.
Seeing Li Chen like this, the Wushan Divine Woman swallowed the words she was about to say and sighed lightly.
"Alas!"
Accompanying the Wushan Divine Woman’s sigh was a deathly silence.
After a long while, Li Chen was the first to break the silence.
"Why have you come, is it to kill me?"
On hearing Li Chen’s sudden question, the Wushan Divine Woman was taken aback.
She truly didn’t know how to answer this question.
"Brother, brother, let me out, I sense a very familiar aura!"
At this moment, Anran inside the mural world suddenly became very emotional.
Li Chen was surprised, and after hesitating for a moment, he took out the mural.
Seeing the mural, the Wushan Divine Woman’s expression suddenly froze, full of complexity.
Then, with a wave of her sleeve, the mural slowly unfolded.
Within it, the mountains, rivers, plants, flowers, and birds all came to life, vivid and lifelike.
Among them, the most eye-catching was the little girl with bare feet and big wide eyes.
Seeing this little girl, the Wushan Divine Woman was dumbfounded.
"Daughter, my poor daughter?"
Hearing the Wushan Divine Woman’s call, Anran seemed a bit at a loss.
She glanced at Li Chen, timidly calling out.
"Big brother!"
Li Chen gave Anran an affectionate smile, saying, "Anran, she’s your mother, go on!"
Hearing the familiar yet distant word "mother", Anran was momentarily unable to accept it.
However, she obediently walked over.
Though it was close, it felt like a journey a thousand years in the making.
Li Chen did not interrupt this warm scene.
Anran was the offspring of the Wushan Divine Woman’s night of passion with King Huai of Chu back on Earth.
Due to unavoidable circumstances, she left Earth and went to the Ziwei Star Domain after giving birth to Anran.
Although King Huai of Chu had long turned to dust, Anran survived by residing in the mural world.
The Witch God Sect, founded by the Wushan Divine Woman, was to protect Anran.
Unfortunately, the Witch God Sect declined, and Anran entered the Human World.
Fortunately, she was found by Li Chen.
Otherwise, Anran might have long vanished without a trace.
"Li Chen, thank you!"
Upon understanding the full story, the Wushan Divine Woman expressed her heartfelt gratitude to Li Chen.
The name Li Chen was known to only a few such as Beiming Xue and the Wushan Divine Woman.
Thus, when the Wushan Divine Woman mentioned Li Chen’s name again,
it quickly bridged their emotions, bringing back memories of a distant past.
Li Chen looked at the Wushan Divine Woman without saying much.
He knew that the Wushan Divine Woman had more to say.
Just as expected!
After a brief silence, the Wushan Divine Woman asked, "What do you plan to do in the future?"
"Regain everything that belongs to me and make those who besieged me pay with blood!"
Li Chen’s voice was not loud, but it carried an irresistible authority.
The Wushan Divine Woman bit her lip, asking, "Does that include Beiming Xue?"
Li Chen did not answer.
He did not want to answer that question.
The Wushan Divine Woman seemed to understand Li Chen’s mind, giving a bitter smile, she said, "Li Chen, do you know why you survived that disaster back then?"
Hearing the Wushan Divine Woman’s sudden question, Li Chen was taken aback, his star-like eyes filled with doubt.
He always attributed it to good luck and never thought much about it.
But now it appeared that there might be another hidden story.
The Wushan Divine Woman, organizing her thoughts, continued, "It was because Beiming Xue wielded the power of time and space. It’s true that she betrayed you, but she also risked the danger of annihilation to reverse time and space so that you might have a mere chance of survival!"
Her words were powerful, each one striking Li Chen like a thunderclap.
Li Chen felt his mind go blank.
"Li Chen, I am taking Anran with me, be well. Remember, don’t be blinded by hatred; those people are very powerful. Even without Beiming Xue, you would definitely have lost!"
After saying this, she intended to leave with Anran.
However, Anran suddenly broke free from her hand and ran towards Li Chen.
"Big brother, big brother!"
Seeing Anran running over, Li Chen picked her up in his arms.
Then he gently patted Anran’s little head, saying with affection, "Anran, go with your mother!"
