As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life

Chapter 396 Tonight the Underworld Divine Monkey Goes Online, Does Xi Xiʼs Talent with Purple Qi Reach the Sky? [Seeking Monthly Ticket]_4

Xi Xi ran halfway, looked at her own chubby and tender little fists, and suddenly felt somewhat embarrassed.

Then she didnʼt care anymore, opened her mouth wide, and burrowed into Zhang Yaʼs arms.

”Mommy, Xi Xi is so scared, Xi Xi needs meat to feel comforted! I want braised pork, oil-braised prawns, spicy sour ribs...”

Xi Xi rubbed her head in Zhang Yaʼs embrace, saying sadly yet happily.

Zhang Ya, hearing how smoothly her little girl recited the dishes, finally felt completely relieved.

Li Che described the situation to her with a smile.

Zhang Ya then lovingly rubbed Xi Xiʼs head.

Xi Xi put her hands on her hips, full of life: ”Mommy, you didnʼt see how majestic and amazing Emperor Xi Xi was today!”

”That little loach couldnʼt stir up any waves in front of Emperor Xi Xi!”

Xi Xi puffed up her little belly, excited and proud.

Zhang Ya smiled gently, then went to make some delicious food for Xi Xi.

Night fell.

After dinner, Li Che slipped into the study.

The Heaven and Earth chessboard vibrated and expanded, enveloping the entire study.

His face, gentle throughout the day, turned utterly somber.

”Young Prince Ji Haihui...”

”Great Grandmaster Xue Dufu!”

Killing intent surged in Li Cheʼs eyes.

Intimidation!

An extremely intense threat!

This feeling was just like the one he had in Fei Lei City years ago, the same sensation the Spirit Infant Sect gave him!

But the Li Che of today was different.

He was no longer the weak Wood Carver in Fei Lei City, who had no power to resist and could only rely on Xu Jiʼs Wood Carving Shop to protect his wife and daughter.

”I must quickly develop the Guanyin Lotus Main Battle Tank...”

”Only then can I pose a threat to a Great Grandmaster.”

”Besides, my Dao Fruit [Dragon Elephant Vajra] can also try to advance, just a little bit more... Just need one or two battles.”

Li Cheʼs eyes fluttered open and shut, summarizing and organizing his strength.

Having destroyed the Ghost Temple and killed two Silver Gang Cursed Copper Corpse-level Seven Elements lower-rank Corpse God Envoys.

To Li Che, his overall power had significantly increased.

But the advancement of [Dragon Elephant Vajra]...

Was still a bit short.

Just a little bit.

”If I use the Golden Heavenly King Ascending Stance... could I fight a Great Grandmaster?”

Maybe I could barely manage a fight...

Unless I squeeze out the Divine Power of a Heavenly King Chess Piece completely.

Li Cheʼs eyes flickered as he estimated in his mind.

But just one fight...

Wasnʼt enough.

Today, Xue Dufu shouted at his daughter three times, and Li Che took note of it all, in front of everyone.

He couldnʼt act at the time.

But as a father, he must reclaim honor for his daughter.

You dared to shout at my daughter?

Iʼll twist your head off!

Viciousness emerged in Li Cheʼs eyes.

Moreover, he knew that after this incident, Young Prince Ji Haihui, having lost face and been deprived of his Divine Talent, would definitely not let Xi Xi off easily.

After the Temple God Resonance Assembly ended...

They might very well target Xi Xi.

Naturally, Li Che would not allow such a thing to happen; he needed to plan ahead!

”First, augment the Dragon Elephant Vajra Dao Fruit!”

”Just a little bit more...”

”Besides... I still have an Equal to Heavenʼs Face, which is also a Mythical Weapon... If I completely free my Divine Sense, and wear the Equal to Heavenʼs Face... can I fight a Great Grandmaster?”

Li Cheʼs gaze became focused.

The Equal to Heavenʼs Face mask was too mysterious.

When Li Che first got it, he tried wearing a third of it and felt a terrifying will trying to assault his consciousness.

So, he was still somewhat cautious.

But...

Li Che believed that with the Equal to Heavenʼs Face mask on, he would definitely become stronger.

”Play it safe... first enhance the Dao Fruit!”

Li Che looked up as his bones and muscles seemed to crackle and roar with his intention.

The next moment, with two fingers pinched together, he tore open the air and took out a conical hat, a black robe, and a cute Cute Bull Mask from the Qiankun Space.

After placing the mask over his face, his body ”hummed” as it swelled and expanded.

Invisible airwaves roared and surged throughout the room.

With one clench of his fist, he clutched the Thunder Chess Piece and disappeared from the study.

Only the ”Fairy in the Painting” clone remained, sitting in front of the desk.

Steadily, it carved away at the Divine Monkey Wood Carving.

...

...

The night wind howled, and the snow fell heavily.

Li Che, in the form of a Bull Demon, wearing a conical hat and mask, stood with his black robe fluttering in the wind and snow, his clothes cutting through the snowflakes.

He raised his hand and touched his brow.

Suddenly, the [Chess Saint] Dao Fruit throbbed, instantly forming a vast Heaven and Earth chessboard, enveloping everything around.

His Divine Sense floated within it, his fingers flicked, and the Immaculate Heart Chess Piece fiercely struck against the refining Seven Elemental Corpse Curse Mother-and-Child Seal.

Li Che moved ”Equal to Heavenʼs Face” to the side of the Seven Elemental Corpse Curse Mother-and-Child Seal.

This technique of using power to suppress the seal, Li Che was quite skilled at it.

Originally, he suppressed the sub-mark with a dark golden Heavenly King Chess Piece, and now he used Equal to Heavenʼs Face to suppress the mother seal.

This would speed up the sacrificial refinement process!

”Once the Seven Elemental Corpse Curse Mother-and-Child Seal is completely refined, the range it can detect will be much broader,”

”But now...”

Li Cheʼs eyes flickered.

What he could do now was to search like a sweeping net, looking for the experts of the Corpse God Cult.

Li Che believed that there was more than just the Heart Monkey Temple as a stronghold of the Corpse God Cult in Golden Light Prefecture City; there must be other strongholds.

He wanted to fight, and naturally, the Corpse God Cult was the best target.

He could strike freely and joyously, and his improvement would be very fast!

If he could kill another Silver Gang Cursed Copper Corpse...

Li Che was confident that he could completely elevate the Dragon Elephant Vajra to LV4!

undergo a different kind of transformation!

By then, with the enhancement of his Cross-training Talent, Li Che would also have the confidence to directly face a Great Grandmaster!

Of course, Li Cheʼs carpet-like search was not aimless; he had the aid of the Seven Elemental Corpse Curse Seal and the Heaven and Earth chessboard.

He would begin by investigating the targets of suspicion.

”The Five Great Sects of Golden Light Prefecture... Gold Split Gate, Bamboo Forest Academy, Watching Tide Pavilion, Heart Monkey Temple, and Sand Scorpion Forest.”

”If Heart Monkey Temple can be a stronghold of the Corpse God Cult, what about the others?”

The wind and snow blurred for a moment.

The black robe billowed.

Li Che appeared in front of an academy, the Heaven and Earth chessboard expanded and enveloped the entire academy, and then he activated the Corpse Curse Mark, spreading waves of Death Qi for investigation.

Located several miles outside the Golden Light Prefecture City, Bamboo Forest Academy had only the faint traces of Spirit Star Death Qi feedback from the Nine Luminaries Corpse Curse Seal.

Clearly, the Corpse God Cultists were hiding within Bamboo Forest Academy, but not in large numbers...

”The academy fosters integrity, the Corpse God Cult indeed has a hard time infiltrating. To have two or three with Spirit Star level, one would have to exploit the loopholes of those scholars with impure intentions...”

Li Che shook his head.

He wasnʼt interested in the small fries marked by the Nine Luminaries Corpse Curse Seal, nor did he wish to waste time on them.

With a tap of his toe, the snow swirled away.

And his figure suddenly vanished into thin air.

Watching Tide Pavilion, located on the bank of Nine Dragons River, covered a vast area.

Regrettably, like Bamboo Forest Academy, although it was infiltrated by the Corpse God Cult, the numbers were few.

The Bull Demon once again disappeared into the snowstorm.

Gold Split Gate.

The moment Li Che touched down.

His mind slightly stirred.

Tearing through the air, the Thousand Li Divine Communication Mirror vibrated subtly...

Beneath the mask, his eyes were as calm as ancient wells.

”Gold Split Gate...”

Li Che wasnʼt surprised in his heart.

He had always been suspicious of this force, ever since he entered the Mansion City and killed his enemy, Qin Yuqing.

Who was related to Gold Split Gate.

And Qin Yuqing seemed to have connections with the Corpse God Cult...

If the Divine Communication Mirror responds within a certain range, it means that someone nearby possesses another mirror...

The other party obviously sensed it as well.

They sent a message on the Divine Communication Mirror, ”Who?”

Li Che put away the Divine Communication Mirror.

The Heaven and Earth chessboard expanded in an instant, as Death Qi ripples spread out like a river tide, rushing forth and striking the quiet and low-key Gold Split Gate!

Inside Gold Split Gate,

intense Death Qi surged up as if it were smoke signals from the dead!

Within Gold Split Gate, the concentration of Death Qi...

was even higher than that of Heart Monkey Temple!

Beneath the mask, the gaze grew colder.

The Death Qi was few but extremely concentrated...

Even more so than Xuanli at Heart Monkey Temple.

Clearing out the evil people of the Corpse God Cult would also increase the maturity of the Dragon Elephant Vajra Dao Fruit...

Killing two birds with one stone.

Li Che suddenly thought of something.

He smiled.

Raising his hand, he tore the air apart and took out a piece of Spiritual Wood from the Qiankun Space effortlessly.

The carving knife danced quickly, and within moments,

a Divine Monkey Mask, resembling a black flame billowing from hell, took shape in his hands.

Since he was going to employ the Divinity of the Spirit Monkey Temple God...

it was only natural...

to change his mask.

With his hand as broad as a fan, he removed the Bull Demon Mask from his face...

Lifting his head, his eyes shone brightly.

Li Cheʼs lips curled into a devilishly charming smile.

He slowly pressed the Divine Monkey Mask of hellfire onto his face.

His eyes shot open, pupils ablaze with golden fire!

His originally burly body suddenly seemed as if it had been forged a thousand times by the hammer, compressing down, with waves of heat surging from his smelting furnace-like body!

Tonight, the Bull Demon is off duty.

The Underworld Divine Monkey.

Logs on.
