Chapter 104 Peach Blossom Paradise
Chapter 104 Peach Blossom Paradise
Yun Chen annihilated Xiang Liu in the blink of an eye, then turned and flew back to the Xia Kingdom.
Before heading to the Kunlun Secret Realm, he needed to go home, as he was well aware of the chain reaction his actions would trigger.
The Kingdom of Red Chrysanthemum will certainly not let this go so easily.
The Fifth World War was about to break out; it was a foregone conclusion.
He didn't want his family to be implicated in the outbreak of World War V while he was in Kunlun!
He couldn't accept even the slightest unexpected event.
If he can't even do this little thing, what kind of Celestial Emperor is he? He might as well find a block of tofu and smash his head against it and die.
However, the fact that he, as an Immortal Emperor, could not find his parents caused him confusion and bewilderment. What secrets existed on this seemingly insignificant blue planet?
The secrets of heaven that exist here are terrifying.
The cloud dust transformed into a beam of light and flew towards the Xia Kingdom.
Gradually, the sky remained completely dark.
The night sky was clear and cloudless, with a gentle breeze.
In the Jiangnan region, on a clear night, a gigantic mushroom cloud could be clearly seen rising from the eastern sea, illuminating the horizon.
This scene was absolutely spectacular!
The people of Xia Kingdom were unaware of what was happening at that moment. They only knew that war was coming, and on the surface, many people were following orders and orderly transferring into the underground city.
Upon arriving at the Jiangnan coast, Yun Chen could see the heavily fortified Xia army from hundreds of miles away.
To avoid trouble, he concealed his presence. Unless he deliberately exposed himself, even the most advanced radar in Xia Kingdom would not be able to detect his existence.
And so, he headed towards Suzhou.
Throughout Suzhou, the people entered the underground city in an orderly manner under the guidance of various parties. This was not just for refuge, but to move their homes underground and live a normal life in a different place.
In fact, it's the same all over the country; everyone is united in their efforts.
This demonstrates the Xia state's ability to concentrate its resources on major undertakings.
On the entire planet Earth, only one company can do this!
Soon, Yun Chen returned home.
He had already set up a barrier and magic array around the entire villa, so that even if a nuclear bomb were to be dropped, it would not cause any damage in this special period when war was imminent.
However, Yun Chen suggested that they enter the secret realm, where they could continue their cultivation and daily life, preparing for the day when spiritual energy would fully recover.
He had already glimpsed a corner of the future: after the Fifth World War, this planet would undergo an unprecedented transformation, or rather, return to its ancient glory.
It was still early, only 2:30 a.m. In fact, Yun Chen had only been gone for a little over two hours.
His actions were too swift.
Every single action he takes is earth-shattering.
When he got home, his family was already asleep.
Anyone else would definitely be unable to sleep during this time, after all, war is about to break out, and people are filled with anxiety.
But Qin Hong and Su Lan slept exceptionally well.
Chu Miaomiao's parents, Chu Yuxuan and Li Zihan, couldn't sleep, not because they were worried about their daughter Chu Miaomiao being almost thirty and unable to find a partner, but because their experience and observations yesterday had overturned their understanding of the world. They never imagined that immortals really existed in this world.
The immortal was not only right beside them, but also their daughter's friend and their friend's son-in-law.
They need to slow down and process this.
Yun Chen returned silently, entered the room, and took the sleeping Yao Yao into his arms.
He went to Yingzhou Secret Realm after putting Xiao Yaoyao to sleep last night, and only tidied up Hongju Kingdom at the same time.
Qin Xi naturally slept with Chu Miaomiao.
Dawn broke quickly.
However, it wasn't until 10 a.m.
The family members gradually woke up.
Looking at the two couples, Qin Hongsu Lan and Chu Yuxuan and Li Zihan, Yun Chen's heart trembled slightly. He couldn't help but think of his parents, Yun Chuan and Xu Ya. He clenched his fists and vowed to find his parents!
Upon seeing Yun Chen, Qin Xi beamed with joy. With her hair disheveled, she rushed into the room when no one was looking and threw herself into Yun Chen's arms, crying, "Husband!"
Yun Chen reached out and put his arm around her slender waist, then gently rubbed her cheek with his other hand, saying with a look of doting affection, "Silly girl."
Qin Xi asked, "Do you have any news about Mom and Dad?"
Yun Chen nodded and earnestly explained to Qin Xi that he would be going to the Kunlun Secret Realm in a couple of days!
Qin Xi whispered, pouring out her heart to him: "Why? We've only been reunited for a short time, and now war has broken out!"
She knew that she had begun to break away from the ordinary.
She felt a sense of unease, recalling the past twenty-seven years from childhood to adulthood. Now, she had not only transformed from an ordinary person into a true cultivator, but she had also happened to be caught up in the Fifth World War.
Upon hearing this, Yun Chen felt quite uncomfortable.
Although he has spent at least 90% of his time with Qin Xi and Xiao Yaoyao since returning to Earth, he still feels it's far from enough.
On one hand, he was worried about his parents' whereabouts and whether they were safe; on the other hand, he had a wife and children. He felt guilty and always felt that he could never have enough time to be with them.
"I'll accompany you for two days before going to the Kunlun Secret Realm. Don't worry, I'll be there and back quickly, it'll only take one day."
Yun Chen gently hugged Qin Xi and said with a promise.
Qin Xi hummed in satisfaction, and then she lifted her face and kissed Yun Chen.
The two kissed briefly.
Then, Yun Chen habitually combed Qin Xi's hair.
"Dad, Mom!"
Just then, Xiao Yaoyao, her face beaming with joy, skipped and hopped into the room. She was wearing a white rabbit pajama set, which looked adorable, and her petite body resembled that of a little rabbit.
Qin Xi picked up Xiao Yaoyao and kissed her.
The mother and daughter exchanged greetings in the morning.
Little Yao Yao threw herself into Yun Chen's arms and kissed him.
Then, little Yao Yao said happily, "Daddy, Mommy, I went to see Aunt Miao Miao! Aunt Miao Miao said she'd braid my hair nicely, and I want to wear pigtails today!"
Xiao Yaoyao kissed Qin Xi again, then skipped away like a cute little white rabbit.
Yun Chen helped Qin Xi change into her beautiful dress, then lowered his head to kiss her cheek and gently asked, "Aren't you and Yao Yao bored staying at home all the time?"
Qin Xi told Yun Chen, "Little Yao Yao is very happy. She said that as long as we are all by her side, she will be happy. Moreover, the world situation is tense right now, and war could break out at any time. It's best if we don't go out."
Remembering this, Qin Xi asked, "Honey, are we really not going to go into the underground city? Won't we get bombed by nuclear weapons if we stay on the surface?"
Yun Chen gently turned her around, took her hands in his, and asked earnestly, "Do you trust your husband?"
Qin Xi nodded: "Of course I believe you."
Then, Yun Chen led her through the hall to the villa's back garden. They stepped lightly onto the lawn, and the two disappeared into the secret realm that Yun Chen had previously created.
Appearing in the secret realm, there was a beautiful peach blossom forest, with fallen petals and lush grass. There were also fertile fields, beautiful ponds, mulberry trees, and bamboo groves. Qin Xi was stunned by the scene around her. Was this a paradise on earth or a sacred place of immortals?
The moment Qin Xi entered this place, she felt an extremely rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Her internal energy circulated automatically, and she felt refreshed and comfortable. She thought to herself that the environment here could cure all diseases.
Yun Chen explained earnestly to Qin Xi while leading her into the well-equipped courtyard in the woods.
After listening to his story, Qin Xi gradually calmed down. This was actually a paradise created by her husband.
"Honey, just how powerful are you?"
She looked at Yun Chen, her beautiful face filled with confusion.
Yun Chen took Qin Xi's hand and gently held it in his own, saying with a tender and doting expression, "You can have a husband as powerful as you want!"
Qin Xi smiled radiantly. Her shocked heart gradually calmed down. Since she had been involved in cultivation for so long, her understanding had been shattered and rebuilt, and now there was nothing she couldn't accept.
After all, as an old philosophical saying goes, the development of things is not static, but rather progresses in a tortuous and spiraling manner. A person's cognition and worldview are also like this, constantly being rebuilt after being shattered and overturned time and time again.
