Chapter 495: Using My Daughter as My Weakness, Xixi Emperor Will Crush All Enemies
Chapter 495: Using My Daughter as My Weakness, Xixi Emperor Will Crush All Enemies
Ding-a-ling...
The wind chimes in the restaurant gently swayed, emitting a crisp and pleasant sound, like a spring breeze stirring the waters, rippling and spreading like a tide.
Steam rose, and a wolf meat sandwich was served, crystal clear and translucent. Each piece of meat seemed like crystal, radiating a dazzling luster and exuding a rich aroma.
The boss had prepared the Heavenly Wolf Supreme's meat, and its intense fragrance almost filled the entire restaurant, even showing signs of spreading towards Qitian City.
After all, it was the meat of a Supreme, and with the boss's culinary skills, Lee Che's nose was captivated as soon as the dish was served, and his tongue was tantalized with every bite.
Lee Che indulged in the delicious meal, accompanied by a bowl of crystal-clear white rice.
Shoveling rice and eating heartily, the restaurant fell silent. The boss, who usually didn't smoke inside, toyed with a translucent treasure pearl.
In no time, Lee Che finished his meal, leaned back in his chair, and exhaled a long breath. His face glowed, and every pore seemed to be brimming with vital energy.
Indeed, the boss's culinary skills had perfectly preserved the vital energy within the Supreme's meat. This meal was equivalent to Lee Che consuming numerous divine medicinal pills!
This culinary skill was truly divine, and calling it a 'holy hand' would be an understatement; it was a true 'immortal hand'!
Lee Che savored the delicious flavors, but the feast would eventually come to an end.
Even the most delectable dishes, when eaten in excess, would become bland and tasteless.
Lee Che didn't dwell on the flavors for too long. He took out the Supreme's demon orb, and its dense demonic energy instantly spread throughout the restaurant.
The boss paused his play with the treasure pearl and glanced at it.
"Do you want me to help you remove the deity and Dao patterns from the demon orb?" the boss asked nonchalantly.
Lee Che smiled, "Boss, you have a keen eye."
"Don't bother me with this. Go find someone else."
"Any skilled alchemist can do it."
The boss waved his hand dismissively.
Lee Che wasn't bothered by this. He knew how to deal with the boss, who was often indifferent to many people.
Even to Lee Che, an old friend, the boss didn't show much concern.
The boss only showed enthusiasm and seriousness when it came to Xixi's matters.
"Boss, this Supreme's demon orb is quite important. Xixi has already set off for Jin'guang Mansion, and the Third Prince's Temple God is about to be reborn. A storm is brewing, and this time, it's different from Qitian's rebirth. The various deity forces within the Mysterious Palace have made early preparations."
"Supremes, demigods, and deities who have ignited their divine fires... they will all likely appear."
"As a father, I'm definitely feeling the pressure."
Lee Che spoke earnestly.
"Boss, please help me."
The boss sat in his chair, his face expressionless. He glanced at Lee Che, his eyes deep and full of meaning.
He had already realized that Lee Che had grasped his weakness...
Using my daughter as my weakness?! The boss was suddenly amused by this.
You, as a father...
How interesting.
"Understood."
But the boss did fall for it.
Outside, the big black dog seemed to have heard Xixi's name, and it kept raising its slender neck, looking around. Finding no sign of Xixi, it lay down again and went back to sleep.
The boss took the demon orb, filled with surging demonic energy, and examined it under the restaurant's lighting. The Dao patterns, deity essence, and vital energy within were all clearly visible.
The boss gave it a cursory glance, and then a buzzing sound reverberated...
Lee Che's eyes narrowed.
Instantly, his body hair stood on end, and he felt an extremely cold blade wind enveloping him.
Before his eyes, an extremely dazzling blade light appeared, as if it had come to life, and landed on the demon orb. It moved at a speed beyond the naked eye, swiftly traversing its surface.
Swoosh, swoosh—
The Dao patterns on the Supreme's demon orb emerged but were being sliced apart inch by inch, shattering and breaking apart. The deity essence was also completely peeled away by the blade light.
In Lee Che's eyes, the Supreme's demon orb visibly shrank.
Finally, it was reduced to the size of a fist, shimmering with pure demonic energy and vital energy, sparkling and dazzling, like a night-illuminating treasure pearl.
"Done."
The boss gently tossed the demon orb to Lee Che.
Lee Che caught the orb, but his gaze unconsciously fell on the golden kitchen knife in the boss's hand. The knife was embroidered with dragon patterns, and at a glance, it seemed as if a true golden divine dragon was sealed within.
A divine weapon...
And not just any ordinary divine weapon!
Buzz, buzz, buzz...
In his arm, the three-pointed double-edged blade seemed to start trembling slightly.
The boss glanced at it and then put away the kitchen knife.
"It's done."
"You can leave after you finish eating."
The boss stood up, his white robe fluttering, and turned to enter the kitchen.
The kitchen was off-limits to outsiders.
Lee Che smiled, put away the demon orb, and then, like a whirlwind, finished off the remaining wolf meat on the plate.
Satiated and comfortable, even his burps exuded a rich vital energy.
His muscles trembled, and his blood surged, as if being driven by a river current. His physical body instinctively began to refine and strengthen itself with this vital energy.
"Time to go, doggy."
Lee Che walked to the door and glanced at the big black dog lying on the ground, snoring loudly.
The dog instantly widened its eyes, its face contorted in anger.
Call me 'Doggy'!
Don't call me 'Doggy'!
You jerk!
Lee Che burst into laughter, tapped his toes, and vanished into space.
Not long after Lee Che's departure, the boss emerged from the kitchen, twirling the kitchen knife on his fingertips. The dazzling blade flowers were like the most brilliant stars in the sky.
"Tired... Where in this world isn't tiring?"
"When you're tired, come eat, and when you're full, you won't be tired."
The girl from before.
She was like that too.
...
...
Qitian City trembled violently inside and out.
The blood-red anomaly persisted for a long time.
Lee Che strolled leisurely, his head held high beneath a conical hat, his eyes sharp and piercing.
Within the inner city, there were also Xuanzhen Supreme and Jiatai Supreme. These two Supremes seemed to have developed a sense of crisis due to the fall of the Heavenly Wolf Supreme, and they often stayed together, able to support each other.
Perhaps due to this shared threat, the two Supremes found a common enemy, temporarily setting aside their differences and choosing to join forces.
After completing the transformation of the Heavenly Wolf Supreme and drawing the third calamity, Fenxu Hundou, Lee Che felt a surge of impulse.
He wanted to repeat the same trick, joining forces with Fang Hanshu and Fenxu Hundou, along with Lee Che's six Mysterious Gate Immortal Seeds.
To kill two Supremes!
To completely recapture the inner city of Qitian!
If the fall of the Heavenly Wolf Supreme went unnoticed, and if Xuanzhen Supreme didn't discover the disappearance of the Heavenly Wolf Supreme, Lee Che might have indeed chosen to wait for the Bound Deity before making his move.
But now, that was no longer an option.
After being discovered, the two Supremes joined forces, and with the fall of another Supreme, the Demon Cave would surely respond...
This was not the time to make a move.
Keeping the two Supremes alive was better than killing them.
For example, with the death of the Heavenly Wolf Supreme, the Demon Cave might send a Supreme who had passed through three disasters and two tribulations to investigate the situation.
Therefore, even if they managed to take down the inner city of Qitian, they might still lose it again.
So, Lee Che wasn't in a hurry.
He focused on improving himself, striving to become stronger. In this world, crying about being tired and complaining about fatigue were signs of weakness.
Such behavior would only make others look down on him and see him as a weakling.
So, Lee Che could only do this once.
After having a meal at the boss's restaurant, Lee Che felt refreshed and rejuvenated, as if he had gained a new life. It was a form of self-regulation.
As for the two Supremes in the inner city of Qitian...
They would eventually become his Bound Deities.
With Zhou Heng as an insider in the inner city of Qitian, Lee Che could always be aware of the situation there and respond accordingly, taking action when necessary.
Arriving at the City Lord's Mansion, Fang Hanshu stood beneath the eaves, with the crimson glow still surging. The scholar smiled gently, his long beard flying in the wind.
"Rest assured, Qitian City is in my hands."
Fang Hanshu was aware of the situation at Jin'guang Mansion, where the temple of the Third Prince was about to revive, inevitably triggering an unstoppable tide.
Regarding Xixi, Fang Hanshu couldn't help but smile, as she was his proud disciple. Although Xixi often called him the Demon Cave Master, Fang Hanshu didn't mind.
Lee Che smiled and glanced at Fang Hanshu.
Even though he had transformed into a Bound Deity, Fang Hanshu's interaction with Lee Che remained largely unchanged.
Buzz—
Lee Che clenched his five fingers and disappeared.
...
...
When Lee Che returned, the convoy had not yet reached Jin'guang Mansion.
This time, heading to Jin'guang Mansion, in addition to Xixi, there were also Feng Zhiqi, Zhao Fangzhou, Tang Xiejia, and other elders, as well as three War Saints. It was quite a formidable group.
However, it was still far from enough to face what was coming.
It could even be said that they were vastly unprepared.
Among the Divine Trial cultivators, there were bound to be many hidden experts, and there might even be Venerables, Supremes, and... Deities rushing over from the Demon Cave.
Although the location of the Third Prince's Temple might not have been marked in the Demon Cave, with the gathering of powerful experts there over time, its position had long been exposed, and various powerful experts had already arrived.
Nowadays, all sorts of experts surrounded the Third Prince's Temple within the Demon Cave.
However, the only fortunate thing was that these experts couldn't leave the Demon Cave.
The restriction of the heavenly will could be said to be the greatest safeguard and barrier for the mortal world.
It gave the cultivators in the mortal world a sense of security.
Inside the carriage, Xixi sat upright, with her hands on her waist and her lips pouting, looking like an inflated pufferfish.
Gurgle, gurgle—
The stove burned, the boiling water churned, and the green tea leaves floated up and down.
Xixi was brewing her emotions.
Lee Che and his Painting Immortal clone completed the switch, and his eyes opened, gently resting on Xixi.
This was why Lee Che had given Xixi so many trump cards.
As the head of a sect...
She should indeed be flamboyant.
She was just an eight-year-old child, and she didn't need to be low-key. What she needed was flamboyance.
And behind her, there was her father.
He could support her!
At least, in the mortal world, Lee Che now had the confidence to provide that support.
With the War Saints present, the carriage sped along, crashing through the pouring autumn rain. With their swift and mighty approach, they entered the vicinity of Jin'guang Mansion.
Rumble—
The surging waters of the Nine-Dragon River became even more turbulent, roaring with a domineering voice, as if the divine power within the river was at its peak.
Along the way, Xixi ordered the carriage to stop.
She jumped out of the carriage and landed on the bank of the Nine-Dragon River in an instant.
Lee Che stepped out of the carriage, followed by Feng Zhiqi, Zhao Fangzhou, and others, all with gentle gazes towards the little girl Xixi.
Xixi stood on a large rock, her five fingers plunged into the water, immediately sensing a surge of hot current gushing forth.
Then, Xixi raised her hand, causing a series of splashes in the river.
"Father, do you remember? This is how you did it when we first came to Jin'guang Mansion as a family!"
Xixi said with a smile, now imitating her father.
In fact, children naturally imitate their parents, who are their first teachers, leaving imprints in their minds.
Lee Che crossed his arms and leaned against the carriage, smiling at the little girl.
The little girl leaped onto the Nine-Dragon River and took continuous steps on the water's surface. Suddenly, she put her hands on her waist and shouted.
The sound waves rippled like waves, surging forth in an instant!
Boom, boom, boom—
The river water exploded!
Two black dragons, with dragon bloodlines from the Four Seas Dragon Clan, emerged from the river, terrified.
Hidden within the Nine-Dragon River, it was an immense river flow, a realm ruled by the Water Clan, and thus, the domain of the Four Seas Dragon Clan.
However...
Just as they were secretly observing this young girl, they were discovered by her!
"How dare you spy on me!"
"Xixi is the youngest Sect Master in the history of the Qianyuan Shenzong! Why are you spying on me? Do you want to take over Jin'guang Mansion?"
Xixi crossed her arms, her delicate nose wrinkled, and she huffed indignantly.
Then, clenching her small fists, she suddenly swung her arm forward, unleashing a punch.
The Purple Flame Snake Spear instantly appeared, transforming into a purple dragon snake that circled behind her before swiftly darting out at incredible speed!
Boom, boom, boom!
Before the two black dragons could react, they were directly pierced by the power of the Purple Flame Snake Spear!
Blood splattered, and the two black dragons crashed into the Nine-Dragon River, turning the river water crimson.
Xixi stood on the river's surface, her Hun Tian Silk dancing wildly, her head held high, arms crossed, exuding a cold and domineering aura.
This was her first visit to Jin'guang Mansion as the Sect Master.
Xixi intended to...
Overpower all enemies!
She would make the name of the Qianyuan Shenzong resound throughout the land!
Without hesitation, she slaughtered the two black dragons, each comparable to an invincible Grand Master, yet they had no chance to resist against Xixi.
Xixi's combat prowess had significantly increased after breaking through to the War Saint realm.
Moreover, Xixi did not let the corpses of the two black dragons go to waste. The red Hun Tian Silk danced wildly, and as Xixi's heart moved, it instantly pierced into the Nine-Dragon River.
She retrieved the mangled bodies of the two black dragons.
"Father, these two black dragons are rare and valuable ingredients. When I go to see the boss next time, I'll ask him to make something delicious with them!"
Xixi shook her head happily.
She stored the corpses of the two black dragons in her Qiankun Space.
Xixi stood on the riverbank, squinting as she looked into the distance.
Far away, where the river met the sky, there seemed to be a temple standing alone, isolated from the world...
It was the Eight-Armed Prison Lotus Fury Third Prince's Temple, shrouded in thick, eerie mist that obscured and blurred its surroundings.
This was where Xixi's dream began.
Here, Xixi obtained the Third Prince's inheritance, and from then on... she soared to new heights!
Now, Xixi had returned to this place.
Xixi clenched her small fist, feeling a sense of anticipation and responsibility in her heart.
It was as if the Third Prince had helped her, and now it was her turn to help him. Isn't that how children should be, helping each other?
Boom, boom, boom—
The eerie mist churned, and from within the eerie temple, countless eyes seemed to be staring at Xixi, their gazes instantly fixing upon her.
Indeed, the number of demons and spirits within the temple had increased significantly.
About a hundred li away from the Third Prince's Temple, there was an incredibly large island, so massive that it had been transported and blocked the Nine-Dragon River.
This was the doing of the powerful beings of the Four Seas Dragon Clan, who had widened the river and forcibly wedged the Ancestor-Dragon Island into it.
Li Che glanced over, as if he could see countless dragon shadows intertwining and surging, their dragon might overwhelming.
"Father, that's the Ancestor-Dragon Island!"
Xixi blinked her big eyes.
"On that island... there's something Xixi wants..."
Xixi said.
Li Che knew what Xixi was referring to—the Xuan Lei Jin Gang Qiankun Ring, the final piece of the Third Prince's mythical weapon set.
It was of great importance to Xixi, which was why she had come personally this time.
The convoy didn't linger long by the riverbank and soon entered Jin'guang Mansion City.
Upon their arrival, both Li Che and Xixi had undergone noticeable and distinct changes.
The number of powerful beings had increased significantly, and various factions had established their presence, dividing the city as if carving up territories.
Jin'guang Mansion remained standing due to Nan Lihu's persistence, but it had already been marginalized and suppressed by the other factions.
It had even lost some of its influence in Jin'guang Mansion.
Most importantly...
"The Royal Family."
Li Che narrowed his eyes.
The Royal Family of the Great Jing Empire had arrived.
The Second Prince, Lu Hengyi, and the Third Prince, Lu Litong, were both present, and Lu Litong was accompanied by the Purple-Clad Fox Spirit, Han Sixi.
Han Sixi was also one of Li Che's Bound Deities.
The Emperor of the Great Jing Empire hadn't come himself but had sent his two princes to this chaotic situation, which Li Che found somewhat puzzling.
The Second Prince, Lu Hengyi, had close ties with the Four Seas Dragon Clan.
The Third Prince, Lu Litong, was closely associated with the Western Buddhist Land.
Additionally, Li Che was surprised to see that among the Second Prince Lu Hengyi's group was another person.
It was the Great Jing Emperor's beloved concubine, Su Daji!
Nan Lihu, Zhang Qingzheng, and others personally greeted Xixi, as she was now the Sect Master of the Qianyuan Shenzong, the legitimate successor.
It had been a long time since Nan Lihu and the others had seen Xixi, and they couldn't help but feel emotional, never expecting that the eight-year-old Xixi would have changed so much.
Xixi was delighted and greeted Nan Lihu and the others.
"Senior Nan Lihu, what's the situation in Jin'guang Mansion now?"
Xixi held Nan Lihu's hand, eager to understand the current state of Jin'guang Mansion.
Nan Lihu's eyes held a complex expression. The Xixi before him indeed possessed the demeanor of a Sect Master, no longer the clueless little girl who only knew how to shout for fireworks.
Nan Lihu didn't hide anything from Xixi, not withholding information just because she was a young girl.
After listening to Nan Lihu, Xixi's eyebrows shot up in anger!
"Just today, one of our inner disciples was severely injured, damaging his dantian and destroying his divine foundation..."
Nan Lihu sighed softly.
Xixi clenched her small fists, gritting her teeth.
"They went too far!"
Xixi abruptly stood up.
Her eyes seemed to burn with flames as she looked towards Li Che, who was sitting not far away, drinking tea, "Father..."
"Go ahead, you're the Sect Master now. Whatever you want to do is fine... Even if something bad happens, it's okay. Our Xixi is just an eight-year-old child."
Lee Che smiled and said, "Xixi, let's go to the Jin'guang City and settle the score with those who harmed our disciples."
Xixi nodded vigorously, her eyes sparkling. Seeing her father's calm demeanor, Xixi felt a sense of reassurance.
Then, Xixi raised her arm and called out, gathering the elders of the various branches, including Nan Lihu, Zhang Qingzheng, Zhu Hongdou, and the elders of the Purple Palace Shenzong, Feng Zhiqi, and Zhao Fangzhou.
Lee Che did not follow, but the Heavenly Chessboard expanded, giving him a panoramic view of the entire city. He was curious to see what Xixi had in mind. How would an eight-year-old young master handle the pressure from various factions?
Xixi and her entourage left Jin'guang Peak, their auras brimming with aggression.
They arrived in Jin'guang City.
"Master Nan Lihu, let's go settle the score with the forces that injured our disciples!" Xixi declared.
"One by one!" Nan Lihu responded.
"As the young master of Qianyuan Shenzong, Xixi has come to avenge the wrongs we've endured these days!"
"Tell the disciples that the master of Qianyuan Shenzong has arrived!"
"Let's drive out all the troublemakers from Jin'guang City!"
"I, Li Nuanxi, have spoken!" Xixi declared, hands on her hips, her voice filled with determination.
Her words were bold, arrogant, domineering, and confident!
Was this Xixi? Was this the Xixi that Nan Lihu knew? Nan Lihu was taken aback by her directness.
Was she going to escalate the conflict like this?
With so many factions involved, could Qianyuan Shenzong handle the situation?
However, Xixi's status as the young master left no room for hesitation. Nan Lihu directly led Xixi to the first offending faction.
After all, the young master might have his own considerations.
As Xixi entered Jin'guang City, the attention of various factions followed. Powerful Heavenly Souls and Heavenly Sensitivity intertwined incessantly.
But it seemed they were acting without restraint.
Perhaps it was because Xixi was only eight years old.
If Lu Taibai himself, a Divine Trial cultivator and a sword cultivator, had come, they would have been more cautious.
But now, with an eight-year-old child...
Why would they feel intimidated?
Since Xixi wanted to seek justice for the injured disciple, Nan Lihu didn't pretend to be smart. He directly led Xixi to the second-rate force that had injured the inner disciples of Jin'guang Branch.
This force had a Four-Star War Saint, from a thousand-year-old family from another Dao City, seeking to take advantage of the great changes brought about by the revival of the deities.
However, with a War Saint in their midst, they were indeed not weak.
"Hahahaha..."
"Greetings to the new young master of Qianyuan Shenzong!" The War Saint of this family personally came out to greet them, giving Xixi some face, as she was the young master of Qianyuan Shenzong, despite being only eight years old.
But Xixi merely crossed her arms, coldly scanning the War Saint.
"Your family's disciple injured my Qianyuan disciple?" Xixi coldly asked.
Xixi snorted, her twin braids swinging as if they could pierce through the void.
"Bring out the one who injured my Qianyuan disciple!" Xixi demanded.
The War Saint of this family frowned slightly, "Is the young master here to seek justice?"
"I've looked into this matter. It's just a minor friction between disciples, nothing serious..."
However, Xixi raised her small hand, assuming an old cadre-like posture.
"Don't speak," Xixi said.
"Just a minor friction?"
"Do you know you've gotten yourself into big trouble?"
Xixi raised her head proudly, her voice still carrying a hint of babyishness.
The War Saint was taken aback, looking at the little girl with a hint of anger on his face.
Xixi was too young; even as the young master of Qianyuan Shenzong, this War Saint couldn't sense any authority from her.
And she was talking about big trouble?
Do you think you're Lu Taibai?
If Lu Taibai had spoken like this, the War Saint would have immediately given face and apologized...
But now...
"All of you from this family, get out of Jin'guang City! And bring me the one who injured my Qianyuan disciple. He ruined my Qianyuan disciple's cultivation, so he should ruin his own cultivation!" Xixi declared.
The War Saint's face turned cold.
However, he looked at Feng Zhiqi and Zhao Fangzhou behind Xixi; he recognized Feng Zhiqi as a Four-Star War Saint and Zhao Fangzhou as a Three-Star War Saint, both beyond his ability to provoke.
"Young master, let's be clear. Behind my Liu family stands..."
But before he could finish...
Xixi spread her five fingers, and a pink Tricaliber Artillery appeared in her hand.
The six metal gun barrels aimed directly at the War Saint.
Xixi raised her head proudly and snorted.
"I don't care who's behind you!"
"Jin'guang City is Qianyuan Shenzong's territory. Do you think you can be so arrogant here?"
"Do you think I'm here to negotiate with you?"
Xixi's pink face was filled with interrogation and excitement.
As the young master, she was upholding the dignity and order of Qianyuan Shenzong!
Wasn't that right?
Boom!
Without saying a word, Xixi activated the Tricaliber Artillery.
Instantly, beams of golden light burst forth!
The War Saint reacted immediately, roaring as his life force erupted, and his powerful aura spread out.
However...
His movements froze, and he looked down at his chest.
An extremely compressed thunderball was wriggling non-stop...
His powerful War Saint physique couldn't block it at all.
Bang!
The thunderball exploded!
Countless thunderbolts surged, blasting the War Saint into pieces!
Nan Lihu was stunned.
Dead...
Dead? A War Saint had fallen like this?
Xixi seemed startled too, mainly because she hadn't expected the improved artillery's power to be so strong!
But soon, Xixi's eyes shone with brilliance!
Was this...
The confidence her father had given her?
Indeed, with her father's support...
Xixi was about to dominate the world!
