My gorgeous wife

Chapter 2047 - 2015: Martial God

"Woooo~~~"

The cruise ship slowly docked at the pier, marking the end of the journey. Many tourists, after disembarking, immediately found their welcoming parties or headed directly to pre-booked hotels to rest for a while.

Although the cruise was enjoyable, after so many days, the tourists felt a bit out of their element.

After all, most of the Human Race prefers to live on solid ground. A sea journey can be an experience, but living in such a place permanently would be too much for anyone.

"Teacher, where do you plan to go?" At this time, Gong Yufei and Ying Xiaoxiao walked over, looking at Li Chen, unable to resist asking.

During these days, although Ying Xiaoxiao sometimes felt intense hatred for Li Chen’s strictness, she also felt she had undergone a transformation. Now that it was time to part, she felt reluctant.

"I should go to Linchuan." Li Chen’s eyes showed nostalgia. "That’s my hometown. It’s been years since I left; it’s time to go back and see."

"Then... can I contact you again?" Ying Xiaoxiao couldn’t help asking.

"If fate allows, you should be able to see me in Linchuan. However, I don’t know how long I’ll stay." Li Chen shook his head with a smile.

They had already learned before that Li Chen didn’t carry a phone or any documents. His safe arrival on the shore was probably thanks to the backdoor help from the Nether King Group.

Ying Xiaoxiao also knew, without a point of contact, meeting again in such a vast world might take a long time.

"Well... take care of yourself!"

"Don’t worry," Li Chen smiled. "Even if I lose my temper, Heaven itself would be thankful. There probably isn’t anything in this world that can threaten me."

"Always bragging." Ying Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes.

Li Chen didn’t explain, just smiled.

Finally, as Li Chen turned away, Ying Xiaoxiao suddenly called out to him.

"Little Brother!"

"Hmm?" Just as Li Chen turned back, he felt a pair of warm lips press firmly against his face.

This...

However, when Li Chen realized what had happened, he saw Ying Xiaoxiao and Gong Yufei standing at a distance. "See you again if fate allows, Little Brother. I’ll look for you in Linchuan!"

Li Chen touched his face and then gave a wry smile, waving at the two girls.

The scene was witnessed by Young Master Liu, who was burning with jealousy.

"Why does someone like him get what even I couldn’t?"

"Young Master." At this time, a middle-aged man came over with several burly bodyguards to Young Master Liu’s side.

"Arrange for some people to give that brat a good lesson!" Young Master Liu coldly watched Li Chen’s departing figure. "Don’t hold back too much, if something happens, I’ll take the blame!"

The middle-aged man glanced at Li Chen’s retreating figure following Young Master Liu’s gaze, wondering what this kid did to offend the Eldest Young Master. Regardless, since Young Master Liu had given such orders, they had no choice but to comply.

"Yes, I understand, Eldest Young Master."

Young Master Liu nodded, gave Li Chen’s back one last cold glance, then left with a sneer.

Meanwhile, Li Chen arrived at a spot where the captain was smiling at him.

"Captain, I’m heading to Linchuan too. Can you give me a lift?" Li Chen asked with a grin.

"You rascal, taking advantage of this old man," the captain couldn’t help but laugh at Li Chen’s straightforwardness.

"We’re fellow countrymen, right? Since you fished me out of the sea, you might as well help me the rest of the way?" Li Chen said seriously.

Hearing this, the captain smacked his lips. "By the way, kid, someone’s keeping an eye on you."

"I know," Li Chen nodded, appearing calm.

"Knowing you’re being watched, yet pulling this old man into it too, are you trying to drag me down?" the captain chuckled.

"Of course not," Li Chen said seriously. "No matter how ungrateful I might be, I wouldn’t harm someone who helped me."

"You talk a good game!"

Hearing Li Chen’s words, the captain shook his head with a smile. "Whether you really think that way, I don’t know."

Li Chen just grinned. "Just a few small fries, not worth worrying about, right?"

Li Chen was being quite modest. For others, they wouldn’t even use the term "small fries."

For Heaven-level Experts, not to mention ordinary people, even those weak Martial Artists are just ants, easily crushed underfoot.

"True," the captain agreed after hearing Li Chen’s words. "Just small fries."

...

"Damn it, how did he get mixed up with that old guy again?"

In the shadows, a group observing Li Chen had darkened expressions.

"That old man is with the Nether King Group; he might even be one of theirs. We can’t touch someone like him. If anything goes wrong, we’d all be in trouble!"

"But what about that kid?"

"Find a way to draw the captain away, then teach that kid a lesson!"

At this moment, a man in a suit walked over slowly. "Leave the kid to me."

"Okay, but that kid seems strange. Be careful!"

The man in the suit shrugged his shoulders and laughed. "Just a young one, what’s so strange about him? At this age, no matter how good he is, he’s at most a Yellow Rank. Do you think a small Yellow Rank can threaten me? Is there even a Yellow Rank in the world that can defeat a Profound Level Martial Artist?"

"Wasn’t Lord Nether King like that back in the day?" someone beside him couldn’t help but argue, seeing the suited man’s arrogance.

Hearing this retort, the man in the suit was momentarily speechless.

What kind of person was Lord Nether King?

Although it’s said he’s been ascended for decades, he was once hailed as the strongest being in the world!

Not just on Earth; it was said that Lord Nether King back then intimidated other minor worlds beyond the dimensional gates, preventing their experts from daring to harbor any thoughts about Earth, thus establishing the current state of joint development.

Years have passed, and Lord Nether King is no longer just a name but an honor!

Apart from the title of the Nether King, more people called him... Martial God!

This title, only he, rightfully deserves!
