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

Chapter 2161: Chapter 542: Ascending the 9 Heavens and 10 Hells, Prison Lotus Without Heaven—A Thousand Village Divine Gambling Battle and Xi Xi Meet at the Summit

After some conversation, Li Che was invited into the ancient village.

”Brother Mo Che, your aura is extraordinary. You must be a disciple of a great power... It’s our village children’s fortune to have you as their teacher.”

”Our Yunxiao Village is just an ancient village of the Five Elders Rank, incomparable to those of the Four Imperial and Three Pure Ranks... Not to mention those Two Saints Ancient Clan Villages that can contend with the All Gods Camp.”

”I hope Brother Mo Che will not find it beneath you.”

The old village chief, known as Yun He, the Two Calamities Divine Tribulation, stroked his beard and smiled, leading Li Che into the village.

This village was huge, bustling with activity, with various buildings standing in close succession.

”Village Chief Yun, does Yunxiao Village participate in the Divine Gambling Battle?” Li Che asked.

”Of course, of course!” Yun He laughed.

With a sigh, he said, ”In this world, without participating in the Divine Gambling Battle, solely relying on the divinity exuded by the village’s Mysterious Temple is far from enough to be self-sufficient... Moreover, the divine crystal nurtured by a Five Elders Rank Mysterious Temple can barely cultivate one Divine Tribulation.”

”We small villages all pin our hopes on the Divine Gambling Battle... betting small to win big, to obtain more resources.”

Yun He said.

”Has Brother Mo Che heard about the upcoming Thousand Village Divine Gambling Battle?”

Thousand Village Divine Gambling Battle?

Li Che was slightly stunned, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Because this familiar name, Li Che had heard while watching Xi Xi’s daily life with Zhang Ya.

The Ancient Earth Village where Xi Xi belongs is going to participate in the Thousand Village Divine Gambling Battle.

”Lord! We can meet the young master at the Divine Gambling Battle through participating in the Thousand Village Divine Gambling Battle, and it won’t attract the attention of the Immortal Gods!”

Su Da’s voice excitedly echoed in Li Che’s mind.

Li Che raised an eyebrow, his eyes fluctuating.

”Village Chief Yun, to be honest...”

Li Che sincerely opened up, telling Yun He about his quest to find his lost daughter.

Of course, he didn’t say he was from the human world, but instead fabricated a background of him following a powerful deity for cultivation.

Upon hearing this, Yun He became even more cheery.

”That’s great!”

”Just in time, Brother Mo Che can join our village’s team in participating in the Thousand Village Divine Gambling Battle.”

”The term ’Thousand Village Divine Gambling Battle’ is quite broad. In reality, the villages participating far exceed a thousand.”

”We ancient clan villages are native inhabitants of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, living from generation to generation by worshipping the Mysterious Temples, but when the All Gods Camp forces swept across the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, discussing with the Two Saints and Three Pure ancient clan villages to initiate the Divine Gambling Battle, our resources became ever more strained...”

”Nearly all the villages in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths participate, and it’s far more than just a thousand villages, even ten thousand wouldn’t cover it!”

”Brother Mo Che, you absolutely have the chance to find your daughter in the Divine Gambling Battle.”

Yun He said with a smile.

Li Che, hearing this, returned the gesture with a smile.

In the days that followed, Li Che joined Yunxiao Village, becoming the teacher of the village’s divine children, guiding them in their cultivation.

”The Divine Gambling Battle is divided into two kinds, the Divine Child Gambling Battle and the Divine Realm Gambling Battle... As Yunxiao Village, a Five Elders Rank ancient village worshipping the Five Elders Strange Temple, we practically stand no chance in the Divine Realm Gambling Battle.”

”The only hope left to win a large amount of resources through odds is the Divine Child Gambling Battle!”

Yun He walked with Li Che around the village that lay beside mountains and water.

The nature’s spiritual energy in the village was rich, as if forming a gathering spiritual energy formation of its own, and at the village’s center stood a Mysterious Temple, shrouded in mysterious fog, releasing divinity for cultivation.

”Yunhuang, Yun Lei, this is the teacher I’ve found for you, Mr. Mo Che, a powerful divine disciple, with an extraordinary background... You must learn well from Mr. Mo Che.”

Yun He brought Li Che to the gathering place of the divine children.

From many divine children, he called over a boy and a girl.

Both were nine years old, the boy was delicate, his eyes seeming to have thunder arcs flickering.

The girl was beautiful, with bright red hair fluttering despite there being no wind.

Li Che casually glanced at the two divine children, gently exhaling, the divine children in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths were much stricter compared to those in the human world.

These two divine children not only had noteworthy physiques but also exceptionally high divine talents.

Knowing Li Che’s extraordinary background, Yun He introduced Li Che, directly mentioning his name to the two children.

Yunhuang and Yun Lei were not foolish either, those who could become divine children were never foolish.

They both held in a breath, wanting to bring more resources to Yunxiao Village in the Divine Gambling Battle, for the cultivation resources of their younger brothers and sisters in the village.

Thus, they earnestly clasped their hands in respect, even kneeling before Li Che, kowtowing for his teachings.

The Thousand Village Divine Gambling Battle requires going through a selection process. If we can’t even pass the initial selection, we wouldn’t qualify to gather with other villages and participate in the Divine Gambling Battle.

Consequently, Li Che would have no chance to see Xi Xi at the Divine Gambling Battle.

Therefore, Li Che decided to seriously train these two divine children.

”In one month, the initial selection for the Thousand Village Divine Gambling Battle will begin. During this month, I will provide you with special training. Don’t cry about the hardship, don’t weep over exhaustion. The talented divine children in the Divine Gambling Battle will not stop swinging their fists just because you cry about hardship or exhaustion.”

Li Che said calmly.

Yunhuang and Yun Lei responded earnestly and sincerely, ”Rest assured, Mr. Mo, we’re not afraid of hardship! Our Yunxiao Village has consecutively lost several years in the Divine Gambling Battle, gaining nothing at all, nearly depleting our resources. This year... we are the hope, we must win!”

The girl Yunhuang, perhaps because she was a girl, appeared more mature.
