My gorgeous wife Chapter 1991 - 1959: Lex

As the three formidable Demons vanished into the distance, the smile on Li Chen’s face slowly receded. It was clear that the potent allure of top-tier Recovery Pills was an irresistible temptation for them. In the grim and wretched Four Realms battlefield, these Recovery Pills are the most coveted treasures, and their consumption rate is exceptionally high. After all, who can be certain that such a Pill might not become their own lifeline one day? In contrast, the Jade Flute appeared exceedingly unremarkable. Even if it possessed some unique qualities, in their estimations, it couldn’t possibly rival a high-grade Pill, let alone earn the favor of a prominent alchemy master. The Jade Flute itself was rather plain and somewhat damaged. Yet, it was undeniably an ancient artifact, so ancient that its origins were difficult to ascertain. However, Li Chen recognized the distinct aura emanating from it. It wasn't just the aura; Li Chen recognized the Jade Flute itself. He had encountered this particular Jade Flute before. If his memory served him correctly, there was once a young woman who wore an identical Jade Flute at her waist. That girl's name was Jun Zhixin. "Was that experience merely a dream?" Gazing at the broken Jade Flute cradled in his hand, Li Chen sank into a profound and lengthy silence. At the very moment the Starry Sky fragmented, Li Chen had witnessed the heavens erupt in the fires of war, with the mightiest figures of the Seven Realms ascending to confront an overwhelming tide of enemies. Prodigious talents like Jun Zhixin and Zhuo Wuju had also joined this cataclysmic conflict. As for the ultimate outcome of the war, Li Chen had no recollection. Consequently, he remained unaware of the final destiny that befell those individuals. Perhaps, remaining ignorant was a form of solace in itself. However, upon beholding this Jade Flute, Li Chen found himself compelled to reminisce. Zhuo Wuju, Jun Zhixin, Guangming, Mingmeng – what eventually transpired for these individuals? "You, the one ahead!" A sudden voice pierced through Li Chen’s introspective moment. Turning his head, he observed several powerful figures from the Divine Realm, distinguished by the halos encircling their heads, advancing towards him. "Let me examine the flute you hold," the leading young man commanded, casting a dismissive glance at Li Chen as he spoke casually. These three imposing individuals from the Divine Realm belonged to the Divine Surge Legion, and the youth at their forefront was the nephew of a Supreme God. Protected by a Supreme God's influence, even within the precarious Ancient Battle Realm, this youth navigated as if traversing a level plain, rarely encountering any who could pose a challenge. Furthermore, he possessed the shrewdness to consistently avoid offending those superior to Immortal Emperor level cultivators, which accounted for his continued survival. Upon entering the Regretless Mountain Range, his already considerable arrogance escalated. After all, the formidable escorts accompanying him had been specifically dispatched by the Supreme God, consisting of two Eighth Rank and six Seventh Rank protectors. Even within the Domain Realm, these experts could wield power far exceeding their rank. With such an imposing retinue, few dared to oppose him. In his estimation, Li Chen's aura was utterly unremarkable, signifying a mere ordinary warrior of the Domain Realm. Such an individual was beneath his notice, hence he spared Li Chen no further consideration and demanded the Jade Flute as his first act. Li Chen cast a brief look at the young man and his entourage, showing no inclination to engage in conversation, and turned to depart. "Halt! This seat commands you to surrender the flute; are you deaf?!" Witnessing Li Chen's utter disregard, the young man became visibly irritated. Who did Lex, a Supreme God's nephew, believe he was? Even if his personal cultivation had not yet reached the Domain Realm, the protectors at his side were all Soul Realm experts; yet Li Chen, a mere Domain Realm Heavenly Martial Artist, dared to ignore Lex?! "If you have something to say, state it quickly," Li Chen responded languidly, lowering his eyelids. He harbored no desire to squander his time with someone who appeared demonstrably lacking in intellect. Having secured the Jade Flute, his urgent priority was to follow in the footsteps of Tian Yi and her companions, as an unsettling feeling of being watched persisted. It wasn't just Tian Yi's group; Li Chen himself felt under surveillance, though he couldn't ascertain the source of this scrutiny. "Do you even comprehend the identity of the person you are addressing?" Lex inquired harshly. Despite being only a High-Ranked God himself, numerous Main Gods and even Divine King level entities were present around him. Main Gods and Divine Kings held standing comparable to Immortal Venerable and Immortal Emperor level experts. Was this fledgling Domain Realm novice weary of existence, speaking to him in such a disrespectful manner? "I possess no interest in finding out," Li Chen replied indifferently. The memory of Zhuo Wuju and the others brought a heavy sensation to his heart, further diminishing his interest in the group confronting him. In a different time, he might have deemed toying with them for amusement, but presently, he felt no such inclination.

"You... Fine!" Lex, enraged, laughed instead, gazing at Li Chen coldly before speaking slowly, "So it seems the Heavenly Realm really is in decline, allowing blind bumpkins like you onto the Four Realms battlefield. No wonder the Heavenly Realm is weakening."

"Teach this little thing a proper lesson for me! Let him understand how to properly address his betters!" Lex ordered, gesturing to the powerful figures beside him.

With that, the Main Gods immediately lunged at Li Chen, intending to capture him.

They knew full well that Lex was a fool who didn’t know his limits.

If they were facing true powerhouses, they wouldn’t dare act and wouldn’t even acknowledge this fool.

But facing someone like Li Chen, whose cultivation seemed mediocre at best, they were willing to humor the Supreme God with a small favor.

Apart from two Divine Kings, the six Main Gods alongside Lex all attacked Li Chen in unison.

Their speed was swift, reaching Li Chen in the blink of an eye. Though suppressed to the Domain Realm, they were, after all, experts of the Soul Realm. With different perspectives, even using Domain Realm level power, the effect they could unleash was far beyond that of typical Domain Realm fighters.

Yet Li Chen merely glanced at them and then averted his gaze.

Scorn lingered in his eyes.

Forget Immortal Venerable, even against Immortal Emperors he had fiercely confronted, and in the end, had mortally bested them.

Watching the men charging at him, Li Chen’s foot shifted.

In the next moment, Li Chen was in another location.

Space Law!

With the sublimation of his mastery over Space Law once more, Li Chen’s handling of Space Law became increasingly adept.

Pointing distantly at the Divine Realm experts.

A series of Space Law ripples erupted.

"Space - Imprisonment!"

"Space - Cage!"

"Space - Folding!"

"Space - Exile!!"

A silver space gate opened beside the powerful figures, and Li Chen reached out with a large hand.

Before they could react, he directly flung the cage into the silver-frame black-space gate.
